Kevin Presley " Simon Peter's Brother "
In this lesson, Evangelist Kevin Presley will take a step back from the familiar narrative centering around Simon Peter, shifting our focus to his often-overlooked brother, Andrew.
He will discuss and highlight biblical accounts of Andrew's exceptional ability to bring people to Christ, starting with his brother Simon Peter. The lesson will discuss how imperative it is for the church to have more "Andrews", quietly working behind the scenes and playing the vital role of connector, introducing others to faith, and building a strong, inclusive local church. While charismatic leaders like Peter are essential, the church's foundation is strengthened by the humble, dedicated, and determined efforts of members who serve a bit more like Andrew.

Kevin Presley " The Three Crosses of Calvary "
In this lesson, Evangelist Kevin Presley discusses not just the cross we are all so familiar with, but also the crosses to the right and to the left of our Savior.
As he delves into the events that took place on Calvary, we will see how the three crosses, each distinct in their own manner, intertwine to form a powerful narrative about the human condition and the potential for spiritual transformation. We will see the peril of rejecting grace in rebellion, the hope of it never being too late to find grace through repentance, and of course the virtues of sacrifice, selflessness and love in finding redemption.

Kevin Presley " Blood Brothers"
In this lesson, Evangelist Kevin Presley will discuss the covenant between David and Jonathon.
He will discuss the friendship of Jonathon, son of King Saul, and David, future King of Isreal, forging a bond that defied the political and familial tension of their time. Despite the jealousy and hostility of Saul towards David, Jonathon's devotion never wavered, exemplifying true sacrificial love and loyalty. In an era where new kings eradicated the previous regime's lineage, David's actions were revolutionary. David honored his commitment to his dear friend, seeking out Mephibosheth, to protect his well-being.

Kevin Presley " Can You Recommend Your Religion? "
In this lesson, Evangelist Kevin Presley will discuss if you have a right to recommend your religion.
He will discuss the transformative power of scripture in our lives, shaping our beliefs and practices. Faith is not just about belief but also about action, living out biblical principles in our lives that reflect Christ to others, and helping our local communities to see what the Lord has and can do. So there never is a question of "Can we recommend our religion", but how can I enjoy the peace and contentment you possess?
