I've long pondered how, as a small-town preacher, I could share the Gospel worldwide. Fortunately, dedicated volunteers and supporters stepped forward, saying, 'We want to help.' Together, we've achieved this goal, focusing not on fame or wealth, but on Jesus and leading people to the cross.My heart longs to see souls saved and prodigals return to Jesus, knowing the Gospel of Jesus is the most beautiful love story, guiding us in life and to the Father's presence. Welcome to the Podcast Lovin ...

The Fire of God is purported to have a profound impact on us. Nevertheless, it is essential to analyze the context of the FIRE. Although some people believe it is a consequence of receiving the Holy Ghost, this is not the primary concern. Rather, the emphasis is on separating ourselves from our previous lives. In verse 12, the word 'fan' is utilize…

This morning, ask yourself: are you willing to hold on? I know it's tough, but hold on. Let's discuss Matthew 13:44-45. Jesus says the Kingdom of Heaven is like a man who finds a precious pearl and sells everything to buy the field. He took every necessary measure to get that pearl. What measures will you take? What will you sacrifice for that fiel…

When discussing personal relationships with Jesus, I ask: Are you certain, without any doubt, that you are saved? The enemy often instills doubt, meaning uncertainty or questioning the truth. Thomas, one of Jesus' twelve disciples, exemplifies this. When told that Jesus had appeared to the others, Thomas said, 'I won't believe unless I touch his na…

Having Right Standing with God! How can we have right standing with God? Let's go to the Word of God. When I read this, the first thing that pops out is the first part of verse one: "be found in Him." To be found in Him, we must first be known by Him. The common theme in having right standing with the Father is knowing Him and being known by Him. H…

Acts 16:20/25 In council settings, I often inquire about individuals' habits regarding solitary prayer. As time progresses, we tend to struggle with finding time to be alone with Jesus. Life's responsibilities can be overwhelming, causing us to get caught up in the cycle of daily routines. But I'd like to ask you: when was the last time you truly p…

I want to ask you to search your heart while I present you with this word the Lord gave me this week. Does your sin hurt? Does it bring you to a point of discomfort, and does it bring you to a point where you feel like the burden is unbearable? I sat down with a young lady this week who asked me if I thought she was a false Christian or a lukewarm …

Come Jesus Come John 11:1/3 The Bible highlights significant instances where Jesus shows up, and remarkable events unfold. In the story of Lazarus' death, we see a family that had lost faith in a miracle. They were broken-hearted and believed death had triumphed. However, Jesus arrived at the perfect time. This teaches us that even in our darkest m…

Over the years, I've been blessed to preach in different churches and stand behind many sacred desks. I can honestly say that Protemus is definitely a blessing to me and my family. In many of those churches, including this one, I hear the same thing: we want to make an impact for the kingdom of God and we want to grow. I want to point out that when…

For years, we've heard people say, "Follow Jesus." But have we taken the time to understand what that really means? Following Jesus is more than just having a personal relationship or a close walk with him. It's more than just socializing with other believers on Sundays. To truly follow Jesus, we must be willing to wholeheartedly seek him and follo…

Roman 8:10-13 The Death of The Flesh This morning I want to start by saying that the flesh is the biggest struggle we all face, whether it is our sinful nature or the most common thing that keeps us from being in tune with the Holy Spirit. I know we have been to the Book of Romans recently, but not these verses. There is a lot to unpack here, so le…

I invite you to turn to John 14:27 in your Bibles with me. This morning's message, 'Rejoice in the Brokenness,' explores the concept of brokenness. It's not just about sin or feeling down; it's also about feeling distant from the Father. Jesus shared this with the disciples to prepare them for his departure, but they still weren't ready. We've been…

We've often heard "return to your first love." This morning, let's examine Revelation 2:4, which says, "Nevertheless I have somewhat against thee, because thou hast left thy first love." This verse is key, and I also want us to read verse 5 for context. Jesus isn't saying our salvation will be taken away; let's be clear about that. The candlestick …

1 Kings 18:32/37 The altar was designed for sacrifice, a place of atonement where people once pleaded with God for mercy and forgiveness. Although it's no longer considered sacred or used in many places of worship, and isn't a religious place or site of religious ritual, in 1 Kings 18:32-38, we see unique events unfold. Elijah mocks the god of Baal…

In 2 Timothy 3:1-5, Paul warns young Timothy about the challenges he'll face. This passage is also very relevant to 2025. Let's reverence God's word. Verse 1 says dangerous times will come, and the word "perilous" means dangerous. We're definitely in those times. Social media has created instant gratification, causing people to love themselves and …

Relatively speaking, when we ask if someone is hungry, the typical responses are 'yes' or 'no,' or even 'I'm starving.' But biblically speaking, I ask you this morning, are you hungry? When we browse the extensive menu at our favorite restaurant, everything appears appealing. However, this morning, there's only one option on the menu: Jesus. Please…

Last week, we discussed the importance of confessing. This week, we'll explore being unashamed. We've seen shirts, bracelets, and bumper stickers about being unashamed of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. However, let's be frank - there's a big difference between being ashamed of the Gospel and being unashamed of being a Christian. People often say they'…

We often hear the word confess, but do we really understand what it means to confess? To confess to something means providing details. When it comes to confessing our sins, it's a different story. We tend to say things like, 'Lord, I'm a sinner, please forgive me.' However, true confession requires giving details. But doesn't the pastor already kno…

This week Pastor Tom Takes us to Ephesians 4:2-13 And highlights the destructive nature of broken unity in churches, leading to division among believers.

This time of year, we're reminded of the powerful lyrics of "Mary Did You Know." Though Mary was aware of her baby's divine nature, the full weight of his impact on the world was yet to be revealed.

Over the years, we discuss this time of year as being the season of giving. While looking at Luke 6:38, it says something amazing. Let's take a look.

In Deuteronomy 4:29-31, Moses urges obedience. I wonder, where has the passion, conviction, desire, and urgency gone in the body of Christ? Have we forgotten the simplicity of seeking the Holy Spirit and God's presence? Has our religiosity distracted us from seeking Jesus? Or have we surrendered? Scripture reminds us: draw near to God (James 4:8), …

This morning, I'd like to emphasize that following Jesus comes with a significant cost, as illustrated in John 12:1-8. In this passage, we observe several remarkable events, including Lazarus's resurrection, courtesy of Jesus's powerful call. We also witness Judas's true nature, as Scripture reveals his thieving tendencies in verse 6. Judas objects…

Do you yearn for Jesus, experiencing an intense longing for Him? Are you in God's desired place, seeking Him in quiet moments with a deep yearning?

This is the Time of Year for us here in the Deep South that we commonly use the phrase Harvest season. We see the farmers working late, tractors on the road.

The current state of the church is one of self-love and self-motivation, but at what cost?
