    Baptism - I Belong To Jesus

    What does it truly mean to belong to Jesus? In this powerful and challenging sermon, Brother Jim explores the meaning of baptism and the life-changing commitment behind the words, “I belong to Jesus.” As the church prepares for Baptism Sunday, this message reminds us that baptism is about far more than getting wet or continuing a religious tradition. It is a public declaration of faith, an act of obedience to Christ, and a reminder that we are called to live a new life in Him. Drawing from Matthew 28:18–20, Romans 6:1–4, and Galatians 3:26–29, Brother Jim explains how baptism points to Jesus’ death, burial, and resurrection—and to the new life we are called to live as His followers. But the message goes deeper, challenging us to examine whether our everyday lives reflect the faith we profess. Does our attitude, our speech, our relationships, and the way we treat others show that we truly belong to Jesus? This sermon also reminds us that baptism is not the finish line of our Christian journey; it is the starting line. We are called to grow in prayer, worship, Scripture, service, forgiveness, and love. The church family shares in that responsibility, especially when it comes to encouraging new believers and teaching the next generation what it means to follow Christ. Most importantly, Brother Jim delivers a powerful reminder that your past does not have the final word—Jesus does. No one is too broken, too far gone, or beyond the reach of God's grace. Jesus isn't asking for perfection; He is calling us to surrender our hearts and follow Him wholeheartedly. As you listen, consider the question at the heart of this message: Do you belong to Jesus, and does your life show it? Whether you've been baptized for years, are considering baptism for the first time, or simply need a reminder of God's amazing grace, this message is an invitation to move beyond routine religion and embrace a genuine, life-changing relationship with Christ. Scripture References: Matthew 28:18–20; Romans 6:1–4; Galatians 3:26–29. Baptism isn't about showing the world how perfect you are. It's about declaring, with your whole heart and your whole life: “I belong to Jesus!”

    The Fast That Pleases God - Part 3

    What does it really mean to pray? In this powerful and challenging sermon, Brother Jim takes us beyond simply reciting familiar words and asks a question that can be uncomfortable—but necessary: Do we really mean what we pray? Using the Lord’s Prayer as a guide, Brother Jim explores what it means to pray, “Our Father,” “Hallowed be Thy name,” “Thy kingdom come,” and “Thy will be done.” Are these simply words we have memorized, or have they become the genuine cry of our hearts? Through Scripture, personal stories, humor, and some straight-shooting “tough love,” this message challenges us to examine whether our Sunday faith carries over into Monday morning. Are we honoring God with the way we live, treat others, respond to frustration, forgive those who hurt us, and handle the circumstances of everyday life? Brother Jim also challenges us to consider whether we're building God’s kingdom or our own kingdom. What happens when God asks us to step outside our comfort zone, forgive someone, serve others, surrender our plans, or simply trust Him? The Lord’s Prayer was never meant to be empty words or a spiritual checklist. It is an invitation to deeper relationship, surrender, faith, and genuine communication with God. Are your prayers connected to your life—or are you simply going through the motions? This message challenges us to stop treating prayer like an emergency button and start making it a real connection with the God who already knows what we need. “Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done.” The question is simple: Do we really mean it?

    The Fast That Pleases God - Part 2

    In this Sunday morning sermon message, Brother Jim challenges us to take a closer look at one of the most important aspects of our relationship with God: prayer. Why do you pray? Is it simply because you were taught to pray, because you need something from God, or because prayer is something you believe Christians are supposed to do? Or do you pray because you genuinely desire to know God more deeply? Brother Jim explores the difference between simply using prayer and living a life of prayer, reminding us that prayer isn't merely a religious activity or a spiritual checklist—it is an opportunity to have a genuine relationship with the Creator of the universe. Through Scripture, personal testimony, humor, and honest reflection, this message looks at our dependence on God, the power of prayer to change us from the inside out, and the peace God can provide even when our circumstances don't immediately change. We are reminded that we don't pray because God needs us—we pray because we need God. We need His wisdom, His strength, His direction, His forgiveness, and His presence. As Brother Jim asks, perhaps the most important question isn't simply “What can God do for me?” but: “Do I truly have a relationship with God?” Join us for this challenging and encouraging Sunday morning sermon as we examine our prayer lives and consider what it really means to draw closer to God.

    The Fast That Pleases God

    What does biblical fasting really mean? Is it about going without food, getting God’s attention, or convincing Him to give us what we want? In this Sunday morning message, Brother Jim begins a powerful teaching on spiritual fasting and prayer, challenging us to look beyond the physical act of fasting and examine what is happening within our hearts. Biblical fasting isn't about manipulating God, earning His love, or proving how spiritual we are. It is about surrender—giving God our desires, our plans, our fears, our distractions, and ultimately our whole hearts. Through Scripture and practical examples, this message challenges us to consider what controls us, what occupies our time and attention, and whether we have allowed the things of this world to take the place that belongs to God. Are we developing a genuine relationship with Christ, or have we settled for a convenient, “fast-food” faith? As we begin this series on fasting, we're reminded that God isn't simply interested in changing our circumstances. Sometimes He wants to first reveal what needs to change within us. The question isn't simply, “Are you getting fed?” The question is: “What are you feeding your soul?” This message is an invitation to slow down, seek God, examine our hearts, and discover what may be standing between us and a deeper relationship with Him.

    Do This in Remembrance of Me

    Do This in Remembrance of Me It’s easy for something we do often to become something we do without really thinking about it. In this powerful message, Brother Jim takes us back to the Lord’s Table and asks a simple but important question: Why do we take communion? Through Luke 22:14–20 and 1 Corinthians 11:26, we are reminded that communion is far more than a religious tradition. The bread points us to Christ’s body given for us. The cup points us to His blood and the new covenant. And the table points us directly to the cross, where Jesus paid a price we could never pay ourselves. Brother Jim challenges us to remember that salvation is not about how good we have been, what we have accomplished, or how religious we appear. It is about what Jesus Christ has done for us. Communion also calls us to examine our hearts, surrender the things we've been hiding, forgive as we've been forgiven, love as we've been loved, and remember that we are not alone. At the table, we are reminded that despite our differences, we are one body in Christ. And while communion looks back to the cross, it also looks forward. Jesus died. Jesus rose. Jesus saves. And Jesus is coming back again. So as we approach the Lord’s Table, may we come with humble, grateful, repentant, and expectant hearts. May we slow down, remember the sacrifice, celebrate the grace, and never forget the Savior who gave Himself for us. Do this in remembrance of me.

    When God has your heart, does He have your finances?

    The sermon this week, Brother Jim tackles one of the most uncomfortable subjects in the church: money. But this message is about much more than dollars and cents—it is about the condition of our hearts. Drawing from Matthew 6:19–21 and the biblical principles of stewardship, Brother Jim reminds us that everything we have ultimately belongs to God. Our time, talents, possessions, opportunities, and finances have been entrusted to us, and the question is not simply, “How much do I give?” but rather, “Who truly has my heart?” Join us as we explore the difference between ownership and stewardship, why giving should never be about guilt or manipulation, and how generosity is an act of worship rooted in trust. From the widow’s small offering to the call to give God our first and best, this episode challenges us to examine what our priorities and our giving reveal about our faith. God does not need our money—He wants our hearts. And when He truly has our hearts, our hands begin to open, our priorities change, our faith deepens, and His kingdom is advanced. So ask yourself: When God has your heart, does He have your finances?

    Jesus Sees What Everyone Else Misses

    What does God see when He looks at our giving, our service, and our faith? In this powerful episode, Brother Jim explores the story of the poor widow in Mark 12 and the two tiny coins she placed in the temple treasury. While everyone else saw a gift that seemed insignificant, Jesus saw something completely different—a sacrifice born from complete faith and trust in God. Through this story, Brother Jim challenges us to look beyond appearances and ask the questions that truly matter: Are we giving God our leftovers or our best? Are we serving Him only when it is comfortable and convenient? And how much of our lives truly belongs to Him? From a remarkable story of a Vietnamese family who sacrificed their prized water buffalo for the work of the Gospel, to the ultimate example of sacrificial giving found in Jesus Christ, this episode reminds us that God measures sacrifice, not size; faithfulness, not recognition; and the heart, not the outward appearance. Brother Jim encourages us to consider what God has entrusted to each of us—our time, talents, resources, finances, and opportunities—and challenges us to stop asking, “God, what can You give me?” and start asking, “God, what can I give You today?” Because Jesus sees what everyone else misses. Key Scriptures: Mark 12:41–44, 1 Samuel 16:7, James 4:10, John 3:16–17, and 2 Corinthians 9:6–8. Listen, reflect, and ask yourself: What has God entrusted to me, and what am I doing with it for His glory?

    Who Is your Neighbor?

    This episode asks one of Jesus' most challenging questions: "Who is my neighbor?" As Brother Jim begins a two-part study of the Parable of the Good Samaritan, he explores far more than a familiar Bible story. Through the conversation between Jesus and the expert in the law, we're confronted with the difference between knowing God's Word and living it. What does it mean to truly love your neighbor? Why did the priest and the Levite walk past a man in desperate need? And what does their response reveal about our own hearts? This message challenges listeners to examine whether their faith is marked by compassion or merely by religious routine. Brother Jim also reflects on the wounded condition of our world, the dangers of empty religion, and the call for believers to move beyond simply seeing needs to actually meeting them. It's a timely reminder that genuine Christianity is demonstrated through mercy, love, and action—not just words. Join us for Part 1 of this powerful study as we prepare to meet the most unlikely hero of the story next week and discover what it truly means to love as Christ has loved us. In this episode: Why Jesus told the Parable of the Good Samaritan The difference between religion and a transformed heart What the priest and Levite teach us about compassion Why seeing a need is not the same as meeting a need How believers are called to live out their faith through mercy and action Be sure to subscribe so you don't miss Part 2, where we'll meet the Good Samaritan himself and uncover the powerful lessons Jesus has for every believer today.
