Why are the best professional athletes so good at what they do? Sometimes it’s because of their genes, but a lot of the time it’s because of the work that they put in every day to be great at their sport. It may not be easy, but they find a way to push themselves to be better. Sometimes following what the Lord tells us to do isn’t easy. We’ll say no to His command so we’re comfortable. Today, Pastor Ken says Jonah got a clear command from the Lord and still chose to say no. Be wary of doing that in your own life.

In superhero movies, the hero must find a way to attack the villain at their weak point. When they don’t, it makes the fight more difficult for them to win. Today, Pastor Ken says Satan loves to attack believers at their weak point, and one of those places is the book of Jonah. Some people will twist the book of Jonah and say it’s a myth or false. That’s what the enemy thinks is your weak point. He wants to twist scripture and ensure that you’re shaky on your beliefs. You must be rooted in the truths of scripture!
Throughout history, the people of Israel have been scattered far from their land. Yet God gave them a promise: He would gather them back, restore them, and make them His own again. Pastor Ken will tell you that the same heart of restoration applies to you. No matter how far you’ve strayed, no matter how many wrong turns you’ve taken, God’s promise of mercy still stands. He can bring you back, to renew you, and to plant you firmly in His love. Today, hear about God’s restoring power for Israel, and for you.
It’s easy to point the finger when a brother or sister in Christ stumbles. We shake our heads, perhaps even discussing their failure, forgetting how fragile we are ourselves. But Scripture reminds us that pride comes before a fall, and none of us are beyond temptation. Pastor Ken will encourage you today to pray for fallen believers instead of condemning them. You can lift them up, asking God to restore and strengthen them. The Church is meant to be a place of grace, not judgmental gossip. 
As believers, we’re being watched. People around us—family, coworkers, neighbors—are paying attention to how we live. They may never open a Bible, but they’re reading our lives like one. Our words, our choices, and our reactions all speak louder than we think. Today, Pastor Ken will explain that when you claim Christ, you represent Him, for better or for worse. That means your behavior matters—not to earn salvation, but to display the transforming power of Jesus as you live a life of integrity. 
Every day we wake up to a battlefield. The Christian life isn’t passive; it’s a fight, a good fight of faith. The enemy doesn’t take days off, and neither should we. If we let our guard down, even for a moment, we’re not just resting; we’re giving in and surrendering ground to sin. Pastor Ken will urge you today in his message to put on the armor of God daily, to stand firm, and to persevere. Hear about the necessity of choosing the fight each morning, and the strength God provides to keep pressing on.
That’s pretty unsettling, isn’t it? Seeing cockroaches scatter? They thrive in darkness but hate exposure to light. Sin works the same way. It hides in secrecy, convincing us it’s safer when no one knows. But the moment God’s light shines in, sin is exposed for what it is—ugly, destructive, and powerless in the truth. Today, Pastor Ken will explain that the darkness may feel comfortable, but it keeps you enslaved. You’re called to step into the light, where freedom and forgiveness are found in Christ.
Sometimes people convince themselves that sin goes unnoticed, that they can live however they please, make hidden choices in the dark, and God will somehow overlook it. But Scripture reminds us that nothing is hidden from His sight. He sees not only our actions but the motives of our hearts. Pastor Ken will tell you how living in sin may feel safe for a season, but the truth is, God will not be mocked. Today, you’ll learn about the danger of self-deception and the hope found in repentance and forgiveness.
I remember a time when I hurt a close friend with something careless I said. For days, the distance between us felt heavy. It wasn’t until I humbled myself, admitted my fault, and asked for forgiveness that the relationship was restored. Today, Pastor Ken will tell you how your walk with Jesus is similar. When you blow it, sin creates a barrier that weighs on your heart. But through repentance and confession, that fellowship can be renewed. Scripture promises His forgiveness is certain.
In the book of Exodus, when Israel fought against Amalek, Moses stood on the hill with his hands raised. As long as his arms were lifted, Israel prevailed, but when he grew tired, they began to lose. That’s when Aaron and Hur stepped in, holding up Moses’s hands until victory was won. Pastor Ken will explain today how that’s a vivid picture of your own battle with the flesh. You can’t fight alone. You need brothers and sisters to encourage you and strengthen you. God uses community to bring victory.
I remember reading an old letter my grandfather wrote decades ago. Though it was meant for someone else, parts of it spoke directly to me; it carried wisdom beyond its time. Today, Pastor Ken will tell you how the books of the Bible, especially the Old Testament prophets, work the same way. They were written to a people in a particular day, addressing their struggles and calling them back to God. Yet their words can still reach you and convict you. God’s Word speaks across generations with timeless truth.
When I was a kid, I remember my parents telling me and my siblings, “We’re going to Disney!” Man, was I happy and putting all my hope in the fact that this was going to be the best day ever. Let me just say, Disney didn’t disappoint. Today, Pastor Ken says you must put your hope in God because He’ll never fail. He promises that there will be a day when all will bow before Him. That should assure you because no matter what injustice happens, it’ll all cease in the end, and all will bow before the true King.
A football coach has complete control over what his team does. Every play he calls is going to be run, except for the quarterback changing it at the last second. Today, Pastor Ken reminds us that God is the God of Angel Armies. This means He’s in control of all, and everything on this Earth is under His command. No matter how hard you try, you can’t change His plans for you. Hold steady to the truth that God is in control and will always guide you to where you need to go. He has your best interests in mind.
Every year, I have faith in all the sports teams I follow. In fact, every year I’ll say the same statement repeatedly, “This is our year,” except what happens? Usually, it results in me getting upset because the team starts losing. In today’s message, Pastor Ken says you must believe in God and repent fully to be forgiven by Him. The difference between God and the sports teams I follow is that God will never fail you. He is for you and will always put you in the best situation to thrive as a follower of Him.
Everyone wants to do convenient things. We want it so bad that we even created stores called convenience stores! Yet, having things readily available isn’t always a good thing. Today, Pastor Ken says our culture has twisted the word of God to only believe in things that are convenient for them. If it’s hard, take it out. If it seems undoable, don’t do it. Our culture is always looking out for itself above all. You must be different! Stand for the Gospel and watch as you make an impact on those around you!
When I was younger, I remember doing something bad that I thought my parents didn’t know I did. They would never confront me about it because they wanted to teach me a lesson on coming clean on my own terms. Today, Pastor Ken says God doesn’t have space for unconfessed sin. In fact, He won’t even tolerate it. To be forgiven by God, you must come clean and confess all your sin, not just some of it. He loves you and desires a relationship with you that’s built on the truths of the Gospel! 
When I was younger, my cousins and I had a secret code in which we would talk to each other so other people couldn’t understand us. This was our way of telling secrets to each other and communicating without drawing attention to ourselves. Today, Pastor Ken says God talks to you just as you need to be spoken to. Much like my cousins and I, God knows how He needs to communicate with you so you can understand Him. You don’t have to communicate with God the same way as those around you!
It’s easy to believe a lie, but have you ever wondered why that is? Today, Pastor Ken says it’s because in every lie, there’s a little bit of truth to make it believable. You must be alert to the lies of the enemy. He wants to tear you down and will do so by giving little bits and pieces of the truth throughout the lies he’s telling you. Satan is the king of lies; of course, he’ll try to put you down by sharing things with you that will deceive you from the truth. Lean into God’s love for your life. Trust in His goodness today.
When you use a leveler to put up a picture, you’re ensuring that your picture is put up on the wall well. When it’s not straight, the leveler tells you how to tilt the frame so you can make it straight. Today, Pastor Ken says God told Amos that He was going to use a plumb line to measure Israel’s disobedience to Him. They were failing the test and falling into deep sin. God wants to redeem you just like He wanted to redeem Israel. He loves you, and even when you’re in the depths of sin, He’ll forgive you if you repent and believe.
When you put food dye into water, that water becomes tainted and can never be clear again until you pour it out and wash the container it’s in. If you use that picture, that’s how sin acts in your life. You’re forever tainted until you’re washed clean by the blood of Jesus. Today, Pastor Ken says you can’t have full pardon from your sin without repentance. Repentance is asking the Lord for forgiveness for the sin that you’ve committed. After you’ve repented from your sin, God promises to cleanse you fully.
