    Who Is Jesus?: Pray Like This (Ken LaMont) E11

    In this Father's Day message, we explore the profound significance of the Lord's Prayer, positioned at the very center of Jesus's Sermon on the Mount. This isn't by accident—Jesus intentionally placed prayer at the heart of kingdom living. Discover how the Lord's Prayer is more than just words to recite; it's a transformative practice designed to shape our hearts and align our lives with God's purposes. Jesus gave us this prayer not as religious repetition, but as a proactive spiritual discipline that reminds us who we're talking to, realigns our will with His, and draws us closer to our Heavenly Father. Through each phrase—from recognizing God's holiness to requesting daily provision, from receiving forgiveness to finding deliverance—we learn that prayer isn't primarily about getting something from God, but about getting close to God. It's about knowing the Father, not just knowing the prayer. This message challenges us to move beyond reactive, crisis-driven prayer to an intentional practice that transforms us from the inside out. What would happen if you prayed the Lord's Prayer three times a day for the next week? How might it shape your perspective, your relationships, and your walk with God? Matthew 5-7 (Sermon on the Mount) Matthew 6:9-15 (The Lord's Prayer) Luke 11 (Disciples ask Jesus to teach them to pray) Deuteronomy 6:4-9 (The Shema) Mark 4:1 (Jesus tempted in the wilderness) Mark 9 (Demon cast out through prayer) For more information about our church, visit npfcc.org  To help support the ongoing work of NPFCC and our mission partners around the globe, you can make a donation at npfcc.org/give

    Who Is Jesus?: Hidden Faith’s True Reward (Devan Bumstead) E10

    In a culture obsessed with being seen, Jesus calls us back to hidden faith. Pastor Devan explores Matthew 6:1-16, challenging us to examine our motives behind any spiritual practice we engage in. Are we doing these to be noticed by others, or to genuinely connect with God? When we seek the Father's approval in the secret place rather than chasing earthly applause, we discover the reward our souls truly long for—His "atta boy" that satisfies like nothing else can.

    Who Is Jesus?: Love Your Enemies (Devan Bumstead) E09

    In this powerful message from the "Who Is Jesus?" series, we explore one of Jesus' most counter-cultural teachings: loving our enemies. Through Matthew 5:38-44, we discover that Jesus isn't calling us to be doormats, but to engage in creative, non-violent resistance that exposes injustice while seeking reconciliation over revenge.  Drawing from the Civil Rights Movement and examining the cultural context of "turning the other cheek," "giving your coat," and "going the extra mile," this sermon reveals how Jesus' radical approach to enemies transforms both victim and perpetrator. The core challenge: Can we hate the darkness without hating the person trapped inside it?  Because while we were still God's enemies, Christ died for us—and now calls us to love others with that same extravagant grace.

    Who Is Jesus?: Heart of the Matter (Rudy Haygood) E08

    In this powerful message from Matthew 5, Pastor Rudy explores Jesus' teaching on anger and reconciliation from the Sermon on the Mount. Discover how repentance isn't just a one-time act but a lifestyle of continually turning back to God. Learn why "rage is the practice of making others less" while worship makes God big—and why we can't do both simultaneously. This sermon challenges us to move beyond behavior modification to actually partaking in God's divine nature, emphasizing that reconciliation is both a prerequisite to authentic worship and the pathway to true freedom. Whether you're wrestling with anger, broken relationships, or simply want to understand what it means to be a citizen of God's kingdom, this message offers biblical wisdom for living without hostility toward others' souls. Key takeaway: Hurt people hurt people, but saved people bless people.
