In this episode, we talk about one of the hardest and most important topics Jesus addressed -sexual sin. Our conversation explores three kinds of people He was speaking to: those who need to guard their thought life before it leads to action, those who have fallen and carry the weight of it, and those who’ve been hurt by it. No matter where you find yourself, there’s grace, healing, and forgiveness in Christ. 💬#BetweenSundays #UGPodcast #GraceAndTruth #Forgiveness #JesusTeaches
This week in our Written in Stone series, we take a look at the commandment, “Don’t Murder.”At first glance, it’s easy to think this one doesn’t apply to us - after all, most of us haven’t physically taken someone’s life. But as Pastor Josh reminds us, Jesus took this command even deeper. In the New Testament, He made it a heart issue: if we carry anger, hatred, or bitterness toward someone, we’ve already broken this commandment in our hearts.Before diving into that truth, we also take an honest look at the value of life, touching on abortion and God’s view of humanity as made in His image.It’s a message that challenges us not only to avoid hatred, but to choose life, love, and reconciliation in every relationship.🪨 Series: Written in Stone 📖 Passage: Exodus 20:13, Matthew 5:21–22 🎥 Listen now and let God’s Word shape your heart.
In this message, Pastor Josh Evans continues our Written in Stone series with a powerful and practical look at the fifth commandment - “Honor your father and your mother.” This isn’t just a command for kids - it’s a call for families to rediscover God’s design for respect, authority, and healthy relationships. Pastor Josh shares why so much of today’s chaos in schools and homes comes from parents trying to be their kids’ friends instead of their parents - and how we can reclaim a biblical foundation for parenting and honor. 👨👩👧👦 When children learn to honor, families thrive - and when parents lead with love and authority, homes are transformed. 📖 Exodus 20:12 - “Honor your father and your mother, that your days may be long in the land that the LORD your God is giving you.” 👉 Watch, share, and let us know in the comments how this message spoke to you! #HonorYourParents #WrittenInStone #PastorJoshEvans #UnionGrove
In this week’s message from the Written In Stone series, Pastor Josh Evans teaches on the 4th Commandment: “Remember the Sabbath.” What does it really mean to rest? Is the Sabbath just an Old Testament practice, or does it have significance for us today as followers of Jesus?Pastor Josh explains how the Sabbath was made for man and was never meant to be a burden for believers. Instead, it is a gift pointing us toward true rest in Christ. He unpacks the biblical foundation for the Sabbath and shows how living in step with God’s rhythm of work and rest leads to deeper worship, renewed perspective, and spiritual health.If you’ve ever struggled to slow down in a busy world, this message will encourage you to embrace God’s design for Sabbath rest.
This past Sunday, Pastor Josh Evans continued our series through the Ten Commandments with a powerful message on the third commandment: “You shall not take the name of the Lord your God in vain” (Exodus 20:7).We often think of this command as only about the words we say—but Pastor Josh showed us that it also speaks to the way we live. Bearing God’s name means our lives should reflect His character. When our actions contradict His holiness, we dishonor His name just as much as when we misuse it with our lips.📖 Scripture: Exodus 20:7 🎙 Speaker: Pastor Josh EvansIf this message encouraged or challenged you, share it with a friend and don’t forget to subscribe for more messages each week.
