Pastor [Name] shows that the Sabbath is not abolished but transformed: a creation ordinance pointing to Christ, our ultimate rest.

In this sermon, we explore Genesis chapter 1 and the biblical account of creation. Pastor unpacks the meaning of “In the beginning,” the significance of God creating the world in six literal days, and how the order, design, and purpose of creation reveal God’s sovereignty. We also see the image of God in man, the blessing of fruitfulness, and the dominion mandate given to humanity. This message reminds us that life, marriage, and family are all part of God’s good design and that our world was created for His glory and for mankind to steward faithfully.
This sermon launches a new series through the book of Genesis, the “book of beginnings.” Pastor shows how Genesis grounds our identity, answers life’s deepest questions, and provides the foundation for the whole Bible. From creation to covenant, the fall, redemption, and God’s sovereignty, Genesis reveals not only where we came from but also why we need Christ and how God works through history for His glory. As we enter this study, we are reminded that to love the story of Genesis is to love the story of Christ Himself.
In this sermon, Pastor unpacks the riches of Christian worship by showing how the order of liturgy is not man-made tradition but God’s covenant pattern revealed from Leviticus to the Lord’s Supper. Just like the farmer who overlooked acres of diamonds beneath his feet, many Christians miss the treasures God places before us each Lord’s Day—His Word, confession, absolution, and the table. Through Scripture, we see that worship is more than routine; it is covenant renewal. God speaks, we confess, He forgives, and then He welcomes us to His table in fellowship and peace. This sermon calls us to raise our view of the Lord’s Day, to confess our sins specifically, hear God’s verdict of pardon, and joyfully come to His table as sons and daughters. Week by week, God spreads before us the riches of His grace—don’t miss the acres of diamonds He has already given.
In the closing sermon on Romans, we explore Paul’s doxology and the heart of the gospel: God’s power to save, the mystery revealed in Christ, and His glory made known among the nations.
Romans 16:17-23 reminds believers to guard against divisive people and false teachers. This sermon calls the church to be watchful, confront offenses biblically, and avoid those who distort sound doctrine—whether through legalism, flattery, or smooth talk. Division is compared to fire and gangrene, devastating congregations when left unchecked. Practical steps include addressing conflict directly, speaking well of others, and refusing to give a platform to falsehood. The message ends with Paul’s encouragement that God will soon crush Satan under the church’s feet, urging believers to preserve unity through the Spirit’s power.
In this sermon, “Give Like You’ve Been Forgiven,” Pastor challenges the church to examine their hearts toward money, generosity, and trust in God. Drawing from passages like Colossians 2, Ephesians 1, 2 Corinthians 8, and Malachi 3, he reminds believers that everything we have belongs to God, that giving is an act of worship, and that generosity reflects our faith in His provision. He exposes money as a rival master competing for our hearts, calls out modern cultural patterns of transient church commitment and minimal giving, and urges believers to anchor themselves long-term in their local church, investing faithfully in the kingdom of God. This message isn’t about fundraising—it’s about freeing hearts from the grip of money, responding to God’s lavish grace, and leaving a legacy of gospel-centered generosity for generations to come.
In this sermon, Pastor Partridge begins Romans 16 by diving into the rich, and often overlooked, personal greetings of Paul.

This sermon challenges modern egalitarian interpretations, defends confessional orthodoxy, and calls believers—men and women—to diligent service in God’s kingdom. You’ll hear why every name listed matters, how proper hermeneutics protect the church, and why the ordinary saints are the backbone of gospel ministry.
Most churches have lost their voice. Pastor Clarke says it’s time to get it back.

Why was Paul delayed from visiting Rome? What can we learn from his unwavering mission to reach the unreached—even when it meant risking his life?

In this episode, Pastor Dale Partridge explores the biblical identity of Israel, arguing that the Church—composed of both believing Jews and Gentiles—is the true Israel of God. He critiques the widespread influence of Christian Zionism and dispensationalism in the American church, and explains how this misinterpretation has shifted our focus away from Christ and His Church. Rooted in Romans 15, this sermon emphasizes humility, unity, and the centrality of Christ in God's redemptive plan. Join us as we seek clarity, conviction, and a more faithful biblical theology.
In this week’s sermon, Pastor Dale Partridge dives into Romans 15 and confronts a deeply ingrained belief in American Christianity—that ethnic Jews are God's chosen people. With clarity and conviction, he explains why that view is incompatible with Scripture, church history, and covenant theology. Pastor Partridge presents four bold claims: Jews who reject Jesus do not love God. They are not God's covenant people. They are not the true Israel. They are not a holy nation. The message is clear: only those in Christ—Jew or Gentile—are heirs of the promises made to Abraham. This is a call to theological clarity and Gospel fidelity in an age of political confusion. Key Scriptures: Romans 15, Galatians 3, Romans 4, John 8, Ephesians 2

Pastor Partridge returns to expository preaching in Romans 14, emphasizing how believers should relate to one another over non-essential matters like dietary laws and religious holidays. Using the metaphor of the church as a garden, not a factory, he urges the congregation to embrace charity, humility, and liberty. He warns against judging or imposing secondary doctrines on others, especially those new to the faith, and highlights the need for grace, patience, and spiritual maturity. The sermon underscores that Christian unity is not uniformity, and that growth in doctrine takes time and discernment.
In his sermon, Elder Clarke explores the nature of true and everlasting joy as found only in Christ, contrasting it with the fleeting, conditional happiness the world offers. He opens by sharing a personal story of grief and anger after losing a close friend to addiction, illustrating how pain and loss can rob even believers of joy until they learn to “grieve with hope” in God’s presence . Elder Clarke then asks why so many Christians experience conditional joy, offering three core reasons: We don’t love Christ – Joy is a byproduct of pursuing Christ, not a goal in itself. True joy abides in God’s presence (Psalm 16:11) and requires repentance and abiding in the Vine (John 15) . We don’t hate the world – Good things (career, family, entertainment) can become idols that displace Christ, squeezing out joy (1 John 2:15–17; Luke 10:41–42) . We don’t remember – Believers are prone to forget God’s past faithfulness (Psalm 106:7; Deut. 6:12), so we need practices that keep our hearts anchored in joy. To combat forgetfulness and sustain joy, Elder Clarke outlines seven “means of grace” that serve as spiritual road-signs: Prayer – Cultivates daily dependence on God Corporate Worship – Weekly gathering to rejoice together The Sacraments – Baptism and the Lord’s Supper as tangible reminders of Christ’s work Fellowship – Deep, loving relationships that bear one another’s burdens Obedience – Keeping Christ’s commands out of love, which leads to full joy (John 15:10–11) Evangelism – Sharing the gospel and recalling the joy of salvation Family Worship – Regular devotions that cultivate joy in the home Elder Clarke closes by urging listeners to integrate these practices into a “liturgical life,” ensuring that joy remains full-time, unshaken by trials, and contagious to others.
In the final message of his seven-part eschatology series, Pastor Partridge takes doctrine to daily practice, showing how a postmillennial outlook fuels bold, hope-filled Christian engagement. He identifies three key areas of confidence: 1. Evangelism: Grounded in the promise that Abraham’s “offspring” includes all believers (Gen. 22:17–18; Rom. 9:6–8; Gal. 3:7–9), Christians can expect the church to swell to uncountable numbers and entrust their gospel witness with optimism rather than pessimism. 2. Righteous Cities: Because the “zeal of the Lord” guarantees the growth of Christ’s just and peaceful kingdom (Isa. 9:6–7; 42:1–4; Ps. 2:9), believers should work confidently for godly influence in their communities—from school boards to city councils—knowing their efforts are part of God’s unfolding plan. 3. Church Victories: Anchored in promises like “the gates of hell shall not prevail” (Matt. 16:18), the church can face even formidable foes—historically and today—with the assurance that Christ’s reign will ultimately triumph. Throughout, Pastor Partridge contrasts this active, optimistic faith with more defeatist eschatologies, urging a return to a Bible-wide, Genesis-to-Revelation view that sees Christ’s kingdom expanding now through the faithful witness and work of his people.
