Loving the Lost & Mission
- Matthew 28:18-20 -
We are a Church that has from the beginning, had a devotion to reaching the lost. God has used our body to lead countless people to a saving relationship with Jesus. Our desire is to continue to give our church the hope we have in evangelism and to spur one another on to reach the world with the Gospel.
May God continue to bless us with fruit from our love and evangels of th
Christ the Wisdom of God
Jeff Durbin
-1 Corinthians 1:18-31-
I want to thank our Lord for the blessing, honor, and privilege have had in preparing and delivering messages from the Book of Proverbs these last few years. This sermon series was so challenging to me, personally. It was challenging in at least two ways:
1. Preaching through Proverbs is a very different preparation, process, and delivery than other types of bo
The Snake’s Word vs. God’s Word
- Wade Orsini -
Genesis 3:1-7
Everything boils down to God's word vs. Satan's word. Who will image-bearers believe? This very reality creates a war of truth against falsehood. And fittingly, it begins here in Genesis, the book of beginnings. May you cling to God's Word like a light unto your path and steer clear of Satan's word, as it is the evil way that leads to darkness. Christ, be our Light.
Hell: Will The Lost Suffer Forever?
Brian Gunter
- Revelation 14:9-13 -
We worship an infinitely holy God who demands justice against sinners for their sin. Our doctrine of Hell even affects some essential Christian doctrines, so we must be prepared to explain and defend what the Bible teaches about Hell.
But For The Grace of God
-Ephesians 2:1-10-
A deeper understanding of the Grace we have received in Christ enables us to be more gracious and patient. It cultivates faithfulness, humility and a deep reliance upon Christ who is the only fount from which this blessing flows. May the Lord bless His people this evening through His word and give us a more robust understanding, and appreciation of this glorious gift.
This week
Yahweh Will Keep You
-James White-
Psalm 121 is one of the Songs of Ascent. God's people have sung, and read, and meditated upon, these words for thousands of years. What does the Lord have for us in these words today?
Love, Spanking and Discipline
Jeff Durbin
-Proverbs 13:24-
We are in the final stages of our study of the Book of Proverbs,
Today, we are going to meditate upon the many instances in the glorious book where God speaks to how we are to love our children with discipline.
The world is broken and sinful. However, God gives us His loving instruction and wisdom on how to help to guide, transform, and correct the heart of a child
Be Bold As a Lion
Jeff Durbin
-Proverbs 28:1-
We are in the final stages of our meditation upon God's Wisdom in the Book of Proverbs.
Today, we will look to God's Word about what distinguishes the wicked from the righteous: boldness. The wicked flee and are cowards. The righteous are as bold as lions. Bold in life.
Bold in death. Bold in conflict. Bold with the truth.
May God, by His Spirit, make us bold. May God
Fear God. Not Man.
Scripture says a lot about fear. One the one hand, God is constantly calling His people to not be afraid, to not fear, to resist the fear of man, and to trust Him. On the other hand, God calls us to fear Him.
Fear God. Not man. Not our circumstances. Not the future. Not any human being. Not what someone can do to us.
We are safe in the Lord. Always, and in all circumstances.
May God help us to res
Stiff Necks & Shattered Lives
Pastor Jeff Durbin continues our Wisdom From Above series with this sermon Proverbs 29:1.
Do You Not Know? Have You Not Heard?
This week at Apologia Church, James White preaches on Isaiah 40.
The Danger of Ignoring God's Law
Jeff Durbin
-Proverbs 28:9-
We are continuing in our study of God's Divine Wisdom in the Book of Proverbs.
Today, we are going to examine God's Wisdom and warning about turning away our ears from hearing God's Law. This truth from the Word of God is particularly important in our day. The theological landscape is filled with unbiblical views on the Law of God. Many are taught that God's Law is no
He Is Risen
The Son of God is risen from the grave! Death has been defeated! Because He lives, we will live also!
It's hard, truly hard, to express which point of God's story of Redemption is more beautiful. I struggle with this. And, that's perfectly alright. It's a good, necessary, and appropriate struggle. What can we explain the glories of more? The power and love of His death for us? The power and victo
Loving the Lost: Mormons
Jeff Durbin
-Acts 17:1-17-
This week will mark my personal 30-year anniversary of going to minister the Gospel at the Mormon Temple in Mesa. During that time, I have had the privilege of giving the biblical Gospel to millions of Latter-day Saints, face-to-face, and through the platform that the Lord has given. God has blessed the proclamation of His Truth and countless Mormons have come to a savi
Dangerous Men
Jeff Durbin
-2 Timothy 3:1-8-
Today, we are going to address some of the prevailing sins of men in the world and the church. God created man. When He created Him, He called it "good. It's good to be a man (as my friend Michael Foster has spoken and written about.) However, because of the fall, men have to deal with and face prevailing sins amongst men. My hope is to address what Scripture says ab
Dangerous Women
Jeff Durbin
-Titus 2:3-5-
We are going to spend two weeks looking into some of the common and prevailing sins that men and women struggle with as men and women. This week, we are going to start with some of the common struggles of women that we see addressed in Scripture. We're going to start with women because my hope is to end with the need for men to take primary responsibility for dealing with
God's Words to The World
-Proverbs 29:18-
In our study of God's Book of Divine Wisdom we are now meditating upon the role that God's Revelation has in protecting and preserving, not only our lives, but the lives of those around us. When we hide or don't speak the Word of God, the Scriptures are clear, the world will fall apart. People throw off restraint when the Word of God isn't given.
May our meditation upon this trut
He Will Wipe Away Every Tear From Your Eyes
-James White-
Revelation 21
We look to the promises of Scripture about the fulfillment of God's great work of redemption in our study today. But our focus will not really be heaven and its joys, though we will surely make note of these truths. Instead, we will be doing a challenging study in how this text gives us a balanced, important witness to the doctrine of the Trinity and to the deity of Ch
The Sovereignty of God
-Jeff Durbin-
Proverbs 16:33, 19:21, 21:1 and 21:30.
The universe is busy. The world is busy. Life is busy. Everything is always moving. Sometimes it seems like a machine, smoothly running. More often than not, it seems like the parts are colliding and going off course. There are so many moments where it feels like the conductor has left his station and nothing is where it's supposed to be. That'
The Beautiful Gospel
Jeff Durbin
-Romans 5:8-
We've been in God's Book of Divine Wisdom for some time. It has been such a blessing and a transformative experience for so many of us. Today, my heart's desire is to focus our minds on the glory and beauty of the Good News of God.
A love of God's Wisdom can only come from a heart that has been changed and a relationship of peace with God. That can only come in one way: t
The Goodness & Blessing of the Law
We are continuing our study of the Book of Proverbs. Today, we see God's Wisdom that is testifying to what we see in the whole of Scripture: the goodness and blessing of God's Law.
We live in a time with so many turning their eyes away from the goodness of God's Law.
Unfortunately, both unbelievers as well as professing believers. Here in God's Wisdom, we see that God calls us to view His instruct
How To Answer The Fool
-Jeff Durbin-
-Proverbs 26:4-5-
As we continue our study and meditation upon God's Wisdom From Above" we are now in The Lord's instruction on how to converse with the fool. It really is a gift to have God's instruction manual on how to answer someone who has abandoned God's ways in how they think and speak.
Today; we will listen to the Lord's Word on just how it's done and provide a number of
The Kiss of Truth
-Jeff Durbin-
Proverbs 24:23-26
Today, we continue our study in the Book of Proverbs and are learning about God's call to speak the truth about the evil around us. We are called to abandon the commitment we have to our favorite faces (partiality) and to tell the truth about the evil or sin that we are presented with There are consequences for blurring the lines of what is actually true. Good ones
