    Sunday Morning | December 21, 2025 | John C. Majors | Louisville, KY

    Pastor John explores how to live with expectation by anticipating God showing up in our lives each day. Drawing from Matthew 1:18–25, we saw that Mary and Joseph were attentive and open to hearing from God, reminding us that prayer—modeled for us in the Lord’s Prayer (Matthew 6:9–13)—positions our hearts to listen. We were challenged to watch for the signs of God at work, as the Magi did when they followed what God revealed to them (Matthew 2:1–6). The sermon emphasized the importance of knowing God’s Word, showing how Jesus fulfills God’s promises through the lineage of Abraham and David (Isaiah 7:14; Genesis 12:1–3; Ezekiel 34:23–24; Matthew 1:1, 17). Finally, we were encouraged to believe that God desires to work through each of us, using ordinary, faithful people to accomplish His extraordinary purposes.

  • Philippians 4:14-23 | Maximizing Joy

    Sunday Morning | December 14, 2025 | John C. Majors | Louisville, KY

    ***During the sermon, the fire alarm sounded, and out of an abundance of caution the congregation exited the building. Thankfully, it was a false alarm and there was no danger. We apologize that we were unable to finish the sermon and appreciate your understanding. ***


    In Philippians 4:14–23, Paul teaches that lasting joy is maximized when believers align their lives with the priorities of the gospel. Joy grows as we share in the work of the gospel, partnering faithfully from the beginning as the Philippians did in supporting Paul’s ministry (vv. 14–16). It deepens when our hearts are motivated by the growth of others rather than personal gain, seeking fruit that increases to their account (v. 17). True joy is sustained when we trust God as the ultimate source of our needs, offering our lives as pleasing sacrifices and recognizing that God often answers our prayers by changing us to become part of the answer (vv. 18–20). Finally, joy is strengthened when we remember we are not alone—we belong to a grace-filled community grounded in the self-giving love of Christ demonstrated on the cross. As Philippians begins and ends with grace, so the Christian life is framed by God’s gracious presence, empowering joyful generosity, faithful partnership, and enduring hope.

  • Philippians 4:10-13 | The Resilient Life
    Dec 9 2025

    Sunday Morning | December 7, 2025 | John C. Majors | Louisville, KY

    On Sunday, Pastor John continued our journey through Philippians by showing how Paul invites believers into a resilient or even “anti-fragile” life—one that grows stronger in the face of pressure instead of being crushed by it. Building on Paul’s earlier teaching about handling anxiety and guarding our thoughts, he pointed to three practices that shape this kind of resilience. First, Paul celebrates the Philippians’ renewed concern for him, reminding us that generosity forms a heart that looks outward rather than inward. Second, Paul testifies that he has learned contentment in every circumstance, calling us to reject the constant chase for “more” and rest in the sufficiency of Christ rather than our possessions or comfort. Finally, Pastor John emphasized that true strength isn’t found in self-reliance but Christ-reliance, as Paul proclaims, “I can do all things through Him who strengthens me”—not as a slogan for personal achievement, but a declaration that Christ Himself is our endurance, our provision, and our life.
