Spiritual Warfare – The Battlefields

Mar 23, 2025

“Spiritual Warfare: The Battlefields”
What if the greatest battles you’re facing aren’t external—but internal? What if the real war isn’t against people or politics, but against sin, pride, and lies in your own heart… and in the world?

Pastor Daren brings forward Ephesians 6, 2 Corinthians 10, Romans 7–8, and more to expose the truth: The battle is not against flesh and blood
+Jesus has already won the war!
+Our “weapons” are not carnal—they are truth, humility, and holiness.
+We fight for souls, not against people
+We are ambassadors of a Kingdom that has come
and declare the holiness and righteousness of Jesus as the only true hope.

SPIRITUAL FOUNDATIONS: INTERCESSION – The Secret Power of Hidden Prayer

Elder Tim Daniels emphasized the power of hidden prayer, teaching that intercession prepares hearts for the Gospel. Prayer is vital in spiritual warfare, tearing down strongholds and guarding our minds. He challenged us to commit to interceding daily in faith.

JOY

Dec 18, 2024

During the Advent season, we celebrate the arrival of Jesus, the source of true and lasting joy. Tim Daniels shared a heartfelt message reminding us that real joy is found in Christ alone. Using the illustration of gift boxes representing what we love, he showed how all our earthly joys—family, peace, hobbies—must be rooted in Jesus to have true meaning. When Christ is at the center, every other love is enhanced and ordered rightly. This Christmas, as we reflect on the angel’s proclamation of “good news of great joy,” let’s embrace the fullness of joy found in our Savior.

The Church and Her Leader

Oct 23, 2024

Pastor Daren shared how Christ is the true leader of His church and how we, as His body, are called to walk in unity and love. Hebrews 13:17 reminds us to honor our leaders, but ultimately, it’s Christ who holds all things together. Our pastors guide us in humility, but Jesus is our shepherd. Pastor Daren challenged us to live out our calling with patience, gentleness, and love, reflecting the unique bond we have in the Spirit. Let’s remember that in Christ, we are one, and through Him, we are empowered to serve and love one another. #ChurchAndHerLeader #UnityInChrist

Hebrews Part 20, Chapter 13 Pastor Gus Booth

Oct 17, 2024

In this sermon, Pastor Gus Booth leads us through Hebrews 13:7-25, focusing on the importance of godly leadership, the unchanging nature of Christ, and the spiritual sacrifices we are called to offer. He reminds us to follow the example of those who faithfully live out the Word of God, while also recognizing that Christ is the ultimate leader—unchanging and eternal.

Pastor Gus contrasts the old ceremonial practices with the new spiritual sacrifices that are pleasing to God, such as praise, good deeds, and sharing with others. These acts of worship replace the old rituals and point us to a deeper relationship with Christ.

We are also encouraged to be bold in confessing the name of Jesus, trusting that God equips us with everything we need to do His will. Courage is required to live out our faith, especially in challenging circumstances, but God’s promise of peace accompanies us as we remain in His will.

This message reminds us of our calling to live courageously, serve others, and offer spiritual sacrifices that honor God, knowing that He provides the strength we need to persevere in faith.

Living out Christian Love (Hebrews 13:1-6)

Oct 10, 2024

Mountains & Monuments – Tim Daniels 9/29/2024

Oct 3, 2024

His message, titled “Mountains and Monuments,” reminds us that while we might face incredible victories and deep valleys, our calling is to continue pressing forward in faith. He used personal stories and Scripture to illustrate that the path to holiness isn’t about staying in one place, whether in suffering or success, but about remaining in God’s grace throughout every season of life.

Pastor Daren led us into Hebrews 11, often called the “faith chapter,” highlighting both the essence of faith and examples of faithful lives from Scripture.
