    Communion Service - Pastor Johnny Marten

    Luke 22 places Jesus at the table with bread in his hands and a cup before him, and Jesus says, “This is my body given for you” and “this cup is the new covenant in my blood.” Bread becomes the picture of nourishment, because the physical body needs food pretty much daily, and the spiritual side of a born again person also needs nourishment. Jesus himself says, “I am the bread of life,” and that means he is not talking about a stomach that never growls again, but about the spirit that can finally be satisfied. John 1 takes that further and says that Jesus is the Word who was with God and was God. Genesis shows God creating by speaking, with the Spirit hovering, and John says that all things were made through the Word. Sin then entered the world and caused a separation between God and mankind. That separation left some kind of void, an empty space inside humanity, and people have tried filling it with money, possessions, houses, farms, trucks, women, alcohol, drugs, and all kinds of things. None of it has been able to satisfy that deep craving. The Word became flesh, and Jesus says that he is the one who fits that empty space. Faith becomes the starting place. Jesus says whoever believes in him will never be thirsty, and the stories of healing show that faith makes people well. A person does not need to know a whole lot of Scripture before putting faith in Jesus, but once faith is there, the living Word must be taken in. Jeremiah says, “When your words came, I ate them,” because God’s words become joy and the heart’s delight. The cup points to the new covenant in Christ’s blood, and wine often serves as a picture of the Holy Spirit. Fermented wine can make the spirit happy for a little while, but the Holy Spirit gives peace and joy that do not fade away like that. Acts 2 shows people acting different and talking different when the Spirit comes, and those on the outside may think it is strange. Ephesians says not to get drunk with wine, but to be filled with the Holy Spirit. Isaiah 53 shows why this new covenant is possible: Jesus was pierced for transgressions, crushed for iniquities, and the punishment that brought peace was on him. Communion therefore remembers what Jesus has done. First Corinthians also calls each person to examine the heart, not the person in the next row. Communion is not for people who have everything perfect, but it does call for a heart that honestly asks, “Where’s my heart at?” and looks back with gratitude at what Christ has done.

    Don't let the Past Keep you from Living your Best Life - Pastor Johnny Marten

    The call to forget what is behind starts with Paul in Philippians, but Paul does not speak as a man who had it easy. Paul could have looked like a spiritual giant from far away, the man who wrote so much of the New Testament and had a clear calling from God. But Paul’s own story says, “Woah, woah, wait just a minute.” His life was not smooth. His past included persecuting believers, getting people killed, being whipped, beaten, stoned, shipwrecked, hungry, cold, and finally writing about joy and pressing on while sitting in prison. Jesus met Paul on the road to Damascus and changed everything. Jesus showed him that all his religious confidence was wrong, and Jesus also forgave him when Paul saw himself as one of the biggest sinners of all. Because Christ had taken hold of him, Paul could say one thing mattered now: forgetting what is behind and reaching toward what is ahead. The past did not get to be the boss anymore. The same question then presses on the heart: what is the one thing a person wishes could be moved on from? A bad decision may have cost friendships, family, marriage, or money. A wound from someone else may still be there, whether abuse, a cold word, a lie, a broken promise, or manipulation. God can forgive, but the heart still has to face whether it will receive that forgiveness and move forward. Unresolved bitterness keeps proving itself when a person says, “I already forgave,” but keeps waking up with the same complaint, dumping it on whoever will listen. The picture of the low spot on a property makes it plain. Pumping water out over and over does not fix the problem if water keeps flowing in from the same corner. The dam has to go where the water is coming from. In the same way, peace often requires going to the person where the hurt came from and talking it through, even if the conversation is uncomfortable. Philippians 4 gives another way forward: “Do not worry about anything,” but pray about everything with thanksgiving. Worry over things that cannot be controlled only steals the day. Prayer puts the matter in God’s hands, and God’s peace guards the heart and mind in Christ Jesus. The mind also has to choose what it chews on: whatever is true, noble, right, pure, lovely, admirable, excellent, and praiseworthy. Today has to be received as today. Yesterday is gone, and tomorrow is not promised. Paul knew need and plenty, hunger and fullness, but he learned contentment because Christ gave him strength. The deepest point is not just knowing Bible stories. A personal relationship with Christ is where the strength comes from to stand firm, pray, forgive, make peace, and live forward.

    Gospel Inheritance - Pastor Bradley Peters

    Pastor Bradley Peters explores what it means to leave behind a gospel inheritance—a legacy that extends far beyond material wealth, personal accomplishments, or even national prosperity. Preaching during America's 250th anniversary celebration, he draws a connection between the inheritance passed down through generations in a nation and the far greater spiritual inheritance believers are called to preserve and pass on. Beginning with Isaiah's call to rejoice in God's salvation, Pastor Bradley reflects on the blessings of living in a nation that has historically protected religious freedom and allowed the gospel to be proclaimed openly. While expressing gratitude for these earthly blessings, he reminds the church that the greatest inheritance Christians possess is not political or economic freedom, but the eternal salvation secured through Jesus Christ. Using Psalm 78 as the foundation of the message, he emphasizes God's command to intentionally teach each new generation about His mighty works. Faith is never meant to remain private or stop with one generation. Parents, grandparents, and every believer share the responsibility of passing on God's truth so that children and future generations will know Him and place their hope in Him. Throughout the sermon, Pastor Bradley contrasts society's obsession with novelty and temporary success against the wisdom handed down through Scripture and faithful believers who came before us. Jesus Himself continually pointed back to what had been taught "long ago" while revealing its fullest meaning, showing that God's truth is timeless and builds upon the faithful testimony of previous generations. The message challenges listeners to consider what legacy they are building. Careers, possessions, and accomplishments will eventually fade, but every act of faithfulness, every gospel conversation, every prayer, and every act of love can have eternal significance. Pastor Bradley paints a vivid picture of heaven where believers may one day discover how seemingly small moments of obedience influenced countless lives across generations, creating an eternal inheritance that only God can fully measure. Rather than motivating people through fear of judgment, he calls believers to live with joyful anticipation of eternity. Heaven is presented not merely as an escape from hell but as the fulfillment of God's kingdom, where the fruit of faithful gospel living will be fully revealed. The sermon concludes with an invitation for believers to intentionally invest in what lasts forever by sharing the gospel, discipling others, and living lives that point people to Christ. While earthly inheritances eventually disappear, the inheritance of the gospel continues multiplying through generations and into eternity, bringing glory to God long after our earthly lives have ended.

    The Peace of our Lord - Pastor Jake Dyck

    True peace isn't found in perfect circumstances—it is found in the presence of Jesus Christ. In this encouraging message, Pastor Jake Dyck explores the peace that Jesus promised in John 14:27: "Peace I leave with you; My peace I give to you." Through personal stories, biblical teaching, and practical application, we're reminded that the world's peace is temporary, but Christ offers a deep, unshakable peace that remains even through trials, anxiety, uncertainty, and life's storms. This sermon explains how peace begins by being reconciled to God through faith in Jesus Christ and grows as we anchor our identity in Him. Looking at passages from Romans, Philippians, Matthew, and the Gospels, Pastor Jake encourages believers to bring every burden to Christ, trust Him through difficult circumstances, and experience the peace that surpasses all understanding. Whether you're facing anxiety, grief, conflict, or simply longing for rest, this message is an invitation to receive the peace that only Jesus can give. Key Scriptures: John 14:27 Romans 5:1–5 Philippians 4:6–7 Matthew 11:28–30
