 October 5, 2025 message: "Spiritual Habits: Prayer & Fasting" based on Matthew 6:16-18 & Luke 11:1-13.  Jesus teaches His disciples how to pray by giving them the Lord’s Prayer, emphasizing reverence for God, dependence on Him for daily needs, forgiveness, and guidance.  Jesus then encourages His followers to ask, seek, and knock, assuring them that God, like a loving father, will give good gifts—especially the Holy Spirit—to those who sincerely ask.

 September 21, 2025 message: "Godly Mentors" based on Psalm 139:1-18 & 2 Kings 2:1-6. Like a holy version of “Who’s on First,” the repetition isn’t pointless—it highlights loyalty, clarity of calling, and the persistence it takes to become a great leader. Godly mentors may try to step aside, but the best disciples stick with them until the mantle is passed. 

 September 14, 2025 message: "A Man of Custom" based on Psalm 118:1-9 & Daniel 6:10-14. Daniel didn’t let fear silence his devotion. Even when obeying God could cost him his life, he chose to pray openly, just as he always had. His steady faith became a powerful witness—not only to his enemies but also to the king, who deeply respected him. There will be times when following God might be unpopular or even risky. In those moments, our quiet, consistent faithfulness can speak louder than words. Trust that God honors those who honor Him, even when the outcome is uncertain. “Be faithful, even to the point of death, and I will give you the crown of life.” — Revelation 2:10 

 September 7, 2025 - Guest speaker (our own) Sara Bannon updates us on progress at Poured Out, a 501c3 charitable organization that we support.  Their mission is to provide disaster relief and clean water. Sara discusses projects in Haiti, Uganda, and the United States and how we can help. 

 August 31, 2025 message: "Even If" based on Psalm 23 & Daniel 3:16-18.  Change your "What if" into "Even if".  Learn what a Christophany is and Pascal's wager/gambit. What happened when King Nebuchadnezzar threw Daniel's boys into the fiery furnace? True worship is declaring, “Even if God doesn’t answer the way I hope, I will still serve Him.” That kind of faith not only honors God but also gives us strength and peace in every fiery trial. Includes information on Hope Springs, a mission we support in Attica, Indiana that covers the Warren, Benton, and Fountain county areas. 

August 24, 2025 message: "The Burden of Bearing Bad News" based on Psalm 9:7-10 & Jeremiah 1:4-10. God calls Jeremiah as His prophet, assuring him despite his youth, placing His words in Jeremiah’s mouth, and appointing him to speak God’s message.  Would you buy property in a war zone for $5.70?  What did you do when you were 17 years old?

 

 August 17, 2025 message: "Celebrating Prayer" based on Philippians 4:6-8. In short, the passage encourages Christians to replace worry with prayer, receive God’s peace, and discipline their minds to dwell on things that build faith and goodness.

 August 10, 2025 message:  "Dry Bones Rattling" based on Revelation 21:5-7 & Ezekiel 37:7.  In Ezekiel 37:7, the rattling bones coming together symbolize the first stage of God’s restoration of Israel. The dry bones represent the nation’s hopeless, scattered state in exile. When Ezekiel speaks God’s words, the bones reconnect in proper order, showing that God’s power and word can bring structure, unity, and life even to what seems completely dead.
