Warnings to the Church in a Crazy World
Our world is influenced by what Paul calls “the traditions of men” and “the basic principles of this world” that are often contrary to Scripture. The worldly influence threatens a person’s walk with Christ, and more broadly, the Church itself. What were the things of Paul’s day that he was warning the church at Colosse about, and how does this translate to what threatens the Church today? Pastor

An in-depth study of 2 Chronicles 18:28-20:21.
Surviving Suffering
Everyone is touched by suffering to some degree at some point in their lives. It is the natural result of living in a sin-filled world with pain and sorrow. Some even question the God's existence or goodness because they wonder how a good God could allow such pain and suffering in the world. Pastor Gary addresses these questions and offers encouragement in today’s message to those who are sufferin
Dangerous Alliances
An in-depth study of 2 Chronicles 17-18.
Reconciled to God
Ever since the fall of man (when man sinned against God) in the Garden of Eden, mankind has been estranged from God. But what was broken by man in the Garden was reconciled by God on the cross! God pursued us to restore that relationship through the sacrifice of Jesus. He invites us to be reconciled to Him and then to spread the message of reconciliation to others. What does all this mean? Fi

An in-depth study of 2 Chronicles 15-16.

Two Kingdoms in Conflict

Israel: The Land that Bears His Name
An in-depth study of 2 Chronicles 4:9-6:21.
How to Be Content in a Discontent World
Human nature is generally discontent. We crave things that are newer and better, the latest and greatest. Companies launch major ad campaigns to convince customers and clients that their products or services are “new and improved.” After all, who wants “old and familiar”? But the Bible cautions against always desiring something better and instead encourages us to be content no matter the circumsta
Solomon's Plan, God's Plan
An in-depth study of 2 Chronicles 3-4.
4 Reasons Why Easter Should Matter for You
Many people believe that Jesus existed. Many even believe that He did miracles, died, and rose from the dead. Yet still, many might wonder, “Why is this relevant to me?” In today’s message, Pastor Gary offers four reasons why the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus should matter to you. If you’ve ever wondered how God could love, forgive, and save you, you will be encouraged by today’s messag

Welcoming Jesus on Palm Sunday
In this Palm Sunday message from Luke 19, Pastor David Guzik looks at the story of Zacchaeus and discovers the difference between a superficial response to Jesus and a sincere, life-changing one. Be encouraged to seek Him, receive Him joyfully, and welcome Him fully into your life.
Little Compromises, Bigger Consequences
In 2 Chronicles 1–2, Solomon begins with humility, asking God for wisdom—but his story quickly becomes a warning about how little compromises can lead to devastating consequences. This message encourages us to walk in obedience, steward God’s blessings faithfully, and live in a way that points others to Him.
God's Remedy for Anxiety
Many people suffer from anxious, fearful, or worrisome thoughts. Life can bombard and overwhelm us at times. How can we find relief from troubling thoughts and fears?

Nothing is Impossible with God
Join us as Pastor Gary Hamrick interviews Shannon Bream about her new book, "Nothing is Impossible with God!".
The Book of Life
Is your name written in the Book of Life? The Book of Life is mentioned eight times in the New Testament (once in Philippians and seven times in Revelation). The Bible teaches that this book lists all the names of people who are going to spend eternity in heaven with Jesus. If your name is not in the book, you will be denied access to heaven. So how can you be sure your name will be listed in the
Midweek Question & Answer
Join us for a special Midweek Q&A night where Pastor Gary, Tyler, & Austin Hamrick do their best to answer your Bible Questions!
No Looking Back
Paul compares the Christian life to that of running a race. It’s an appropriate analogy because there is a starting line (when you accept Christ), a finish line (when you step from this life into eternity), and a prize at the end (heaven). Some have gotten off to a late start, others have had a slow start, and all of us have stumbled at some point along the race. But the only thing that matters is
Understanding God & Ourselves
An in-depth discussion of 1 Chronicles 24:20-29:30.
Nothing Compares to Jesus!
Most people pursue things that bring them happiness or pleasure in this lifetime: accomplishments, awards, degrees, rank, money, likes and followers. But at the end of the day, nothing compares to knowing Jesus! In Philippians 3, Paul wrote about all his many accomplishments and accolades that he achieved in his lifetime, but he said it was all “rubbish” (dung) compared to the excellence of knowin
Wisdom Is Greater Than Knowledge
An in-depth study of 1 Chronicles 22-24.
The World, the Word, and the Worshiper
Did you know that God is revealing Himself to you on a daily basis? In Psalm 19, David explains how the Lord reveals Himself predominantly in two ways-through creation and His Word. God’s voice compels David to respond by helping him recognize his own sinful condition. Do you recognize God's voice when He speaks? Join us as Pastor Austin unpacks Psalm 19.
When Success Becomes Sin: The Warning Behind David's Census
An in-depth study of 1 Chronicles 20:4-21:30.
Our Witness Impacts Our World
God calls us to live our faith out loud for others to see and hear about Jesus. Paul reminds us that we live in a “crooked and perverse generation,” and today's study from Philippians 2 shows us that it is for that reason we must shine the light of Jesus in this dark world.
Lessons from David: His Victories & Defeats
An in-depth study of 1 Chronicles 17:15-20:3.
Unity through Humility
All relationships take work. Whether in the church or outside the church—in marriages and families, and between friends, co-workers, and neighbors—wherever you have two sinners, you have the potential for disagreement and conflict. Our human default is selfishness which leads to division. But in Philippians 2, Paul tells us that unity comes from humility, and humility comes from following the exam
His Mercy Is Great: His Justice Is Coming
An in-depth study of 1 Chronicles 16:8-17:14.
Torn between Two Worlds
Have you ever thought about heaven and wanted to go there sooner than later? Paul wrote in Philippians 1:21, “For to me, to live is Christ, and to die is gain.” He didn’t have a “death wish” with dark thoughts of wanting to escape this world; he simply longed for heaven and was ready to go whenever God called him home. Sometimes the weight of this world can cause our heavy hearts to long for our e

The Rise of Antisemitism in Christian and Conservative Circles
Antisemitism and anti-Israel views are creeping into Christian and conservative communities.

Watch this timely message to understand the r
My Chains, God’s Glory
Sometimes we think that God is absent during our difficult circumstances. Paul was “in chains” in prison in Rome for preaching the Gospel, yet he wrote about how much joy he had! How can someone in prison have such joy? Answer: because his joy was in Jesus and he understood that, regardless of his circumstances, God was accomplishing His divine purposes. That is why Paul would write in Philippians
How to Fight Our Enemies: Kneeling in Prayer
An in-depth study of 1 Chronicles 14-15.
God Will Finish What He Starts
When we come to faith in Jesus Christ, God does not abandon us. On the contrary, He sends His Spirit to dwell in us and abide with us to help us run the race with perseverance. God is as much at work in bringing us to salvation as He is at work in keeping us saved! But it’s not all on Him. We have a responsibility to “work out our salvation” too. Pastor Gary explains this encouraging promise in to

Mystery of the Magi
An in-depth study into the Magi.
I’ll Be Home for Christmas
Christmas is too important to breeze by. And yet many people will walk past the nativity story with its good and joyful news of God coming to man in favor of the world’s trinkets and distractions. It is time we stopped and realized what the Christmas story is all about: the Son of God entering our world to be with us, bleed for us, and rescue us.
The Fall and Rising of Many
In Luke 2, Simeon prophesied that baby Jesus was destined for the fall and rising of many. Jesus is a very polarizing figure. He is the most divisive person in human history, attracting some and repelling others like a magnet. How will you respond to the person of Jesus today?

Stand Your Ground Against the Enemy
The Bible tells us that we are in a spiritual battle—an unseen war in the heavenly realm that rages over us. Satan will try to tempt, discourage, deceive, confuse, and harm us. He and his demonic principalities want to destroy our marriages, our families, our churches, and our very lives. But in Ephesians 6, Paul explains how we can take a stand against the Enemy and trust the Lord to fight for us
From Exile to Inheritance
An in-depth study of 1 Chronicles 6-9.
Marriage, Family, and Work
God gives us instructions in the Bible for how to experience the most harmony and unity within a marriage, a family, and the workplace. But we must first understand submission to the Lord before we can “submit to one another in the fear of the Lord” (Ephesians 5:21). How we relate with and respond to one another depends on our own walk with the Lord. Follow along in Ephesians 5–6 as Pastor Gary u
The Truth about Generational Sin
An in-depth study of 1 Chronicles 2-6.
Putting Feet to Your Faith
Christianity is not only about what we believe, but also about how we behave. If we are truly followers of Christ, we should live out our faith in a way that glorifies Him. In the second half of Ephesians, Paul instructs us how to figuratively “walk out our faith.” Five times in Ephesians 4–5, Paul tells us specific ways to walk as followers of Christ. Pastor Gary discusses these five ways in toda
A Prayer for You
Do you need prayer today? In Ephesians 3, Paul prays for Believers. He asks God for four things on our behalf: (1) that we would be strengthened spiritually, (2) that Christ would “dwell” in our hearts, (3) that we would comprehend the expanse of God’s love for us, and (4) that we would be filled with the fullness of God. In this study, Pastor Gary breaks down Ephesians 3 and prays these four poin
Where Did We Come From?

The Rise of AI and the Future of the Church
We are headed into an AI-dominated world. Some might think that statement an exaggeration, but if you turn on the news, you’ll quickly notice that artificial intelligence is everywhere you look and negatively impacting the next generation. In today’s message, Pastor Austin addresses this subject directly; encouraging the church to think Biblically about the rise of AI, its current impact on the mo
Mysteries in the Bible: Time of Lawlessness
An in-depth study of the mystery of the time of lawlessness in the Bible.
Overcome
Pastor Garid Beeler teaches from 1 Peter 1 on finding living hope in the midst of suffering and trials. Even when faith is tested, God is refining and strengthening His people for His glory. Be encouraged to stand firm, resist the enemy, and trust that every trial has purpose — shaping you more into the image of Christ.
Mysteries in the Bible: The Rapture
An in-depth study of the mystery of the rapture.
Dead or Alive?
We are all born dead. Does that sound like a contradiction? It’s not. This paradox is the theme of Ephesians 2: that we are all born physically alive but spiritually dead, and that the only way we are made spiritually alive is by trusting Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior. He takes our dead lives and makes them alive! Paul tells us there are three things that work to keep us dead, and three thin
Midweek Bible Study
An in-depth study of 2 Kings 23:30-25:20.
The Answer to Identity Confusion
We are living in a world of identity confusion. Our culture is wrestling with questions about sexuality, biology, and definitions of “male” and “female.” Would you be surprised to learn that this is nothing new? Ancient cultures wrestled with the same issues, particularly in the city of Ephesus. When Paul stepped into Ephesus to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ, he encountered the same chaos that
Midweek Bible Study

You Reap What You Sow
There is a principle in life that the Bible teaches called the law of “sowing and reaping.” It’s particularly true for Christians who have a choice about whether they will feed their spirit or their flesh. The spirit is that part within us that is redeemed and eternal; the flesh is unredeemed and temporary. The spirit wants to please the Lord, and the flesh wants to gratify the sinful nature. If w
The Battle of the Flesh and Spirit
When a person becomes a Christian, a battle begins between the flesh and the spirit. The flesh is that part of our lives that desires sinful things; the spirit is that part of our lives that wants to glorify God. Our flesh always wants to dominate, but the Bible tells us to die to self and live in the spirit. Paul writes about this spiritual battle in Galatians 5, and he gives us three practical w
Midweek Bible Study
An in-depth study of 2 Kings 20:11-21:26.
When Truth Draws Enemies
After the assassination of Charlie Kirk, many are feeling grief, anger, and sadness. Paul asked the Galatians, “Have I therefore become your enemy because I tell you the truth?” (Galatians 4:16). Unfortunately, when we live the truth and tell the truth, many will see us as their enemy. Jesus said that some will even hate us (John 15:18-19). Nevertheless, God calls us to love people, to be bold am
One in Christ
There are many differences among people—including ethnic, socio-economic, and biological differences. But that does not matter when it comes to our standing in Christ. Paul says that all Believers are ONE in Christ. But the culture views things differently. The culture either denies our differences altogether or exploits our differences to divide people through class warfare and race-baiting. But
Midweek Bible Study
An in-depth study of 2 Kings 19-20:11.
Reverse of the Curse
The Old Testament Law tells us that anyone who violates just one of God’s commandments is guilty of breaking them all, and that every “lawbreaker” is under a curse. But the good news is that Jesus Christ bore the curse intended for us when He was nailed to a tree! Jesus reversed the curse! Follow along in today’s Bible study as Pastor Gary shares the importance of faith over law and how we are jus
Overcoming "Quiet Christianity"
Sometimes Christians are reluctant to be bold in their faith for fear of what others may think. Even the apostle Peter briefly fell into this trap, and Paul had to confront him about his hypocrisy. "Quiet Christianity" is when you act one way around some people, and a different way around other people who do not share your beliefs. In today's study, Pastor Gary gives us steps to overcome "quiet Ch
