  • To Be Continued: Life Without the Spirit (Devan Bumstead) E27
    Sep 14 2025

    In this sermon titled "Life Without the Spirit," delivered on September 14, 2025, we explore the critical role of the Holy Spirit in the life of a believer. Drawing from Acts 19:1-17, the message highlights two groups of people who lack the Holy Spirit for different reasons: those who display behavior without a true relationship with Jesus, and those who crave power without acknowledging His lordship. The sermon challenges us to examine our own lives and consider whether we have truly received the Holy Spirit and are living in His fullness. It emphasizes the importance of not quenching the Spirit and encourages believers to live with awareness and responsiveness to His guidance. Through personal anecdotes and biblical exegesis, the message calls us to deepen our relationship with God and allow the Holy Spirit to transform us from the inside out. Join us as we seek to un-quench the Spirit and experience His power and presence in our lives.

  • To Be Continued: When God Says No (Ken LaMont) E23
    Aug 17 2025

    In this powerful message, we explore how to respond when God says "no" to our plans and prayers. Through Paul's missionary journey in Acts 16, we learn that God's redirections, though sometimes disappointing, are actually divine guidance toward His better plan. The sermon examines how Paul and Timothy's experience, along with examples from King David and Jesus, teach us valuable lessons about trusting God's wisdom when He closes doors. We discover that God says "no" because He loves us, has a greater perspective, and always has better plans in store. This message offers practical steps for responding to God's "no" with faith and perseverance, reminding us that sometimes God's greatest works come through His redirections.
