Pastor Paul Stephens preaches from Deuteronomy 6 and Judges 2 about one of the most sobering responsibilities given to parents, grandparents, pastors, mentors, and the entire church: passing a living faith to the next generation.

Israel had seen miracles, deliverance, supernatural provision, and victory. Yet Judges records the tragedy that followed: “another generation arose after them who did not know the Lord, nor the work which He had done for Israel.”

How did that happen?

This message examines the dangers of partial obedience, silence in the home, cultural influence, fading spiritual leadership, and assuming our children will inherit a relationship with God simply because they grew up around church.

Pastor Stephens also challenges young people directly: your parents' relationship with Jesus cannot become your substitute for knowing Him yourself.

In this message:
• Why spiritual legacies can disappear in a single generation
• The responsibility of parents and grandparents
• Why children need to hear your testimony
• How compromise can multiply in the next generation
• The danger of allowing the world to shape your children's appetites
• Why church kids need their own encounter with Jesus
• How every member of a congregation influences the young people watching them

Key Scriptures:
Deuteronomy 6:4-9
Judges 2:7-12
Deuteronomy 4:9-10
Joshua 4:5-7
Psalm 127:3
Matthew 5:14-16
Ecclesiastes 12:1
Psalm 119:9-10

If we want another generation to know God, we cannot be silent about what God has done.

Pastor Lopez preaches an unusual message from Matthew 24 and Revelation designed not only for Christians today, but for the people they fear may one day be left behind.
What happened? What happens next? And most importantly, what should you do?
From the rise of the Antichrist and the Great Tribulation to the Mark of the Beast, persecution, the return of Jesus Christ, and the urgent need for salvation, Pastor Lopez walks through his understanding of Bible prophecy and delivers one overriding warning:
Don't wait until tomorrow to get right with God.

This message was originally preached on May 26, 2021, so references to political leaders, international conflicts, technology, UFO reports, inflation, and other current events reflect the world as it existed at that time. Some connections between those events and end-times prophecy represent Pastor Lopez's personal interpretation and speculation.
Key Scriptures:
Matthew 24:21-22
1 Corinthians 15:51-53
1 Thessalonians 4:16-18
2 Thessalonians 2
Daniel 9:27
Revelation 6-14
Revelation 13:16-18
Revelation 19:11-16
Luke 21:36
If this message makes you think of someone you love, don't just think about them. Pray for them. Talk to them. Share the Gospel with them while there is still time.

Can you really know that you’re saved?

Pastor Wayman Mitchell preaches from Ephesians 1 on the assurance of salvation and one of the most encouraging truths in Scripture: God is committed to finishing what He started in you.

New converts and longtime Christians alike can struggle with condemnation. Old habits surface. Wrong thoughts return. The devil accuses you and tells you, “You haven’t really changed. You’ll always be this way.”

But God says something different.

In this message, Pastor Mitchell explains what it means to be redeemed by the blood of Jesus, accepted in Christ, and sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise.

That seal is more than a religious idea. It speaks of ownership. God has put His mark on those who belong to Him.

Philippians 1:6 says:

“He which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ.”

Your confidence is not that you are strong enough to save yourself. Your confidence is in the God who saved you and is working to bring His purposes to completion.

Scriptures: Ephesians 1:3-14, Romans 6:23, Isaiah 52:3, Acts 20:28, Colossians 1:12-14, Romans 8:1, Luke 10:20, Philippians 1:6, Jude 24-25
