Revival Radio with John Miller

What comes to mind when you hear the word prophet? Maybe you picture an old man in a long robe or the person on the street corner with a sign yelling 'Repent!'. But as you'll hear in today's message from Pastor John, there are two different types of prophecy. Yes, there is future prediction prophecy, but the word also means to share the Word of God before others. You are prophesying when you comfort a friend with truth found in Scripture. This prophecy helps to build, stir and bind others up.

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of 1 Corinthians chapter 14 as he begins his message What About Spiritual Gifts? Prophecy or Tongues.

Love seeks the highest good of another person. Are you seeking the highest good for your spouse? Your children? Your friends? Today, in his message, Pastor John explains what it means to truly love someone. It's not an emotion; it's devotion. It's consistent, just like God's love for you is. You'll learn what love is and what it isn't. As you listen to this message, ask the Holy Spirit to show you how to love others better. You reflect the heart of Jesus when you demonstrate His love to those around you.

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of 1 Corinthians chapter 13 as he continues his message, What About Spiritual Gifts? Loves Excellent Way.

You've likely heard Chapter Thirteen of First Corinthians before. Known as the 'Love Chapter,' it details how Christians are to love others. “Love is patient, love is kind...” But today in his teaching, Pastor John asks you to insert YOUR name in the place of love. Are you patient? Are you kind? Are you envious? As you realize that you aren't all those things, you may feel discouraged. But have hope. Try putting the name of Jesus in the text. Jesus IS patient. He IS kind. Ask Jesus to help make your heart become more like His.

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of 1 Corinthians chapter 13 as he begins his message, What About Spiritual Gifts? Loves Excellent Way.

Think of the many parts that make up your physical body. There's your hands, feet, eyes, and ears. Then, you have a brain, heart, liver, and lungs. The list goes on. It takes ALL of these unique parts working together in harmony for your body to function well. As you'll learn in today's message from Pastor John, the same is true of the body of Christ. The Church is made up of people with many different spiritual gifts. Each one is unique, necessary, and given by God for the flourishing of the body of Christ.

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of John chapter 7 as he continues his message, What About Spiritual Gifts? Their Unity & Diversity.

Have you wondered if you're filled with the Holy Spirit? If you have placed your faith in Jesus, then you have the Holy Spirit. You are a temple of the Holy Spirit. The Spirit resides in you. But today, in his teaching, Pastor John poses another question, “Does the Holy Spirit have YOU?”. Have you surrendered your thoughts, actions, heart, and lifestyle to Him? Are you yielding to the Spirit? As you learn today about spiritual gifts, remember that the Holy Spirit IS a gift. He is the one who gives you spiritual gifts.

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of 1 Corinthians chapter 12 as he begins his message What About Spiritual Gifts? Their Unity & Diversity.

Are you connected to the body of Christ? In today's message, Pastor John encourages you to be involved in your local church. You'll learn about the many different gifts of the Spirit and how they are meant to be used to edify and build up the body of Christ. All of the gifts come from the Lord and are to be used for the good of the Church and to glorify God. We need YOU! When you don't spend time in fellowship with other Christians, you lose out on the opportunity to share your gifts with others.

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of 1 Corinthians chapter 12 as he continues his message Spiritual Gifts And Their Purpose.

Did you know that the Holy Spirit is a person? He is also one with God. Today, in his teaching, Pastor John helps you understand this third member of the Trinity better. You'll learn that the Holy Spirit gives spiritual gifts to believers. He imparts grace upon you for service and ministry and enables you to use those gifts for building up the Church and bringing glory to the Lord. Although these gifts are important, the greatest evidence of a Spirit-filled person is having a Christ-like character and bearing fruit.

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of 1 Corinthians chapter 12 as he begins his message, Spiritual Gifts And Their Purpose.

What's commonplace in our culture may be offensive to another. As you'll hear in today's message from Pastor John, if you're a follower of Christ, you're called not to be offensive or dishonoring to others. Being insensitive doesn't help spread the Gospel message. You'll learn about the problem that the Corinthian Church had with conducting themselves in public. By being disorderly, they were dishonoring the Lord. Don't make the same mistake. Being sensitive to others brings glory to Jesus.

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of Genesis 2 for today's edition of Revival Radio.

Context matters. Life in the twenty-first century United States looks much different than life in the Middle East two thousand years ago. Today, Pastor John emphasizes the importance of context when studying Scripture. You'll hear how the Apostle Paul addressed the Corinthian Church regarding women having their hair uncovered in public. It's important to keep in mind the cultural differences between now and then and to focus on how the principles of order and modesty still apply to you today.

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of 1 Corinthians chapter 11 for today's edition of Revival Radio.

Some people struggle with understanding how and why God is a jealous God. Today, Pastor John uses the illustration of marriage to unpack this idea. If your spouse were flirting with or involved with another person, you'd be upset. It would hurt you because you love them, and they have pledged their loyalty and commitment to you. Similarly, Christians are considered the Bride of Christ. When you chase after idols and put things above the Lord, He's jealous. He rightly desires first place in your heart and your life.

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of 1 Corinthians chapter 10 as he continues his message, Principles of Christian Liberty.

Have you ever driven up a mountain with drastic drop-offs? It's terrifying to imagine going off the cliff. Well, today in his teaching, Pastor John illustrates just how vital it is to stay away from the edge of sin. Don't try to see how close to the boundary you can get before falling off. It's not worth the danger that it puts your soul in. The Apostle Paul warned the Corinthian Church not to have fellowship with demons because it would cause danger and destruction. Instead, aim to stay far away from the temptation to sin.

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of 1 Corinthians chapter 10 as he continues his message, Principles of Christian Liberty.

Have you let unbelief and fear hold you back from experiencing all God has for you? Today, in Pastor John's message, you'll hear about the mistakes the first generation of Israel made that led to them not entering the Promised Land. Joshua and Caleb were the only two who trusted in the Lord and had faith. Therefore, out of the two million Israelites that fled Egypt, they were the two who got to enter. Is there a step the Lord is asking you to make in faith? You can take it knowing He who calls you is faithful.

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of 1 Corinthians chapter 10 as he continues his message, Principles of Christian Liberty.

How's your race going? You'll be encouraged in today's teaching from Pastor John to make it to the finish line. It's not so much about how you run the race; it's about how you finish it. You'll hear about Israel and how they started off well. God abundantly blessed them by freeing them from Egypt and guiding them through the wilderness. Yet somewhere along the way, they compromised. They were disqualified from the race. Don't let that be you! Learn from their mistake and stay strong til the end!

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of 1 Corinthians chapter 10 as he continues his message Principles of Christian Liberty.

What are you struggling to give up for the sake of the Gospel? Today, Pastor John shares in his teaching about the importance of being flexible. The Apostle Paul was willing to adjust things about himself for the sake of whoever he was trying to reach for Christ. It's never okay to sin to get the Gospel out, but it is okay and even necessary at times to set aside your preferences in order to further your witness. Identify anything holding you back from reaching others and make some course corrections.

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of 1 Corinthians chapter 9 as he continues his message, Principles of Christian Liberty.

Is there an area of indulgence you need to give up for the sake of the Gospel? In today's message, Pastor John urges you not to let your lifestyle get in the way of you sharing Jesus with others. If there's something you're doing that's causing someone else to stumble and sin, it's time to cut that out of your life. Just because you have the liberty to do it doesn't mean it's good to do. As you listen to today's message, consider what's getting in the way of your witness and how you can eliminate it from your life.

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of 1 Corinthians chapter 9 as he continues his message, Principles of Christian Liberty.

In today's message, Pastor John teaches that love sets limits on Christian liberty. This means that although there are activities you're free in Christ to do, if something you're doing is causing someone else to sin, then it IS sinful to do. Think about your life. Are you being a stumbling block to someone? This could look like spending time in certain places, drinking alcohol, or the type of entertainment you're consuming. It may not be causing you to sin, but you shouldn't do it if it's causing your friend to sin.

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of 1 Corinthians chapter 8 as he continues his message, Principles of Christian Liberty.

The Bible doesn't give black-and-white instructions for handling every situation you'll encounter in life. There are a lot of gray areas that require you to use discernment and follow the Holy Spirit's leading. Today Pastor John warns of two extremes to avoid-- legalism and license. Instead, find balance in liberty controlled by love. This is what Paul taught the Corinthian Church, which was struggling with whether or not to eat meat that was offered to idols. As you deal with gray areas, make sure your motivation is love.

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of 1 Corinthians chapter 8 as he begins his message, Principles of Christian Liberty.

Whether single or married, all believers are called to live lives devoted to service to God. You'll be encouraged in Pastor John's message today to give Jesus the priority in your life. Don't let your marital status be an excuse not to serve the Lord with your time, talents, and treasure. Marriage is a wonderful gift from the Lord, but it's important that you don't let it get in the way of how God wants to use you to build the Kingdom. Together with your spouse, make serving the Lord your family's top priority.

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of 1 Corinthians chapter 7 as he continues his message Questions About Singleness.

What's distracting you from serving the Lord? Today, in his teaching, Pastor John speaks on the topic of singleness. Oftentimes, those who are single are better able to devote themselves to service than those who are married and have children. There's nothing wrong with getting married, but you shouldn't neglect the things that are most important. Whether you are single or married today, commit to keeping your priorities straight. Give Jesus the number one spot in your life and heart.

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of 1 Corinthians chapter 7 as he begins his message, Questions About Singleness.

The topic of divorce is oftentimes very painful. God designed marriage to be a commitment made for life. Believers should fight to remain married, but what about those who have unsaved spouses? Pastor John dives into this question in today's teaching. You'll learn that if your unsaved spouse wants a divorce, the Lord permits you to let them go.The best thing that you can do in that scenario is to spend time in prayer and trust the Lord with it. Lean on Him and know that He'll get you through.

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of 1 Corinthians chapter 7 as he continues his message Questions About Marriage.

If you're a follower of Jesus, don't marry someone who doesn't share your faith. You may think you'll convert them. but there's no guarantee of that. In today's teaching from Pastor John, he urges you not to make a foolish mistake. When you love Jesus, you put Him first. He's number one in your life. It affects how you live, how you spend your time, and what you value. The worldview of a nonbeliever is not compatible with that of a Christian. Follow what the Word of God teaches. and do not become unequally yoked.

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of 1 Corinthians chapter 7 as he continues his message Questions About Marriage.

God designed marriage to be a lifelong commitment between man and woman. It's not something you can simply end at any time because it no longer suits you. In his message today, Pastor John urges you not to divorce your spouse. Take the covenant you made before the Lord seriously. The Corinthian Church mistakenly believed that sexual intimacy was sinful, and therefore, they should divorce. No! Within marriage, sex is a great gift from God, and divorce is NOT the answer. Stay committed to your spouse!

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of 1 Corinthians chapter 7 as he continues his message Questions About Marriage.

Sexual immorality is rampant in our culture today, and many people have an 'anything goes' attitude about it. You'll hear in today's teaching from Pastor John that God has a design and standard for marriage. Marriage is to be a lifelong covenant between one man and one woman. Sexual intimacy is meant to take place within marriage. Culture may change, but God never does. Don't believe cultural lies surrounding sex and dating. God designed marriage, and He knows and wants what is best for you.

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of 1 Corinthians chapter 7 as he begins his message, Questions About Marriage.

Are you battling with sexual temptation? You are NOT alone. This is an issue that many Christians struggle with. Today, in his message, Pastor John encourages you to take practical action against the temptations. This may look like cutting off friendships, changing the places you spend time at, getting a new job, or getting rid of your computer. Sexual immorality does not just affect your physical body; it affects you emotionally and spiritually, too. Commit to glorifying the Lord with your body.

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of 1 Corinthians chapter 6 as he continues his message, Sexual Purity.

You have many important, God-given desires and drives. Hunger causes you to eat; thirst causes you to drink. This is all good. But, as you'll hear in Pastor John's teaching today, these desires have limitations. When you overindulge in these things, you can find yourself dealing with sins like gluttony, drunkenness, slothfulness, and sexual immorality. What was once a good, healthy desire becomes tainted. When making decisions, ask yourself, 'Is this profitable and beneficial to me?'. If not, then say NO.

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of 1 Corinthians chapter 6 as he begins his message Sexual Purity.

That's a hard word to hear. Today in his message, Pastor John shares the sobering truth about sin found in Paul's letter to the Corinthians. The truth is that a born-again believer will not be habitually or intentionally living a life defined by sin. You'll never be sinless, but if you've truly been saved, you won't engage in ongoing sinful lifestyles. When you put your trust in Jesus, you are a new creation, and the Holy Spirit is working in your heart. When you do fall into sin, repent and ask the Lord for forgiveness.

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of 1 Corinthians chapter 6 as he continues his message, Lawsuits Among the Lord's People.

People today are quick to sue over anything. Pastor John shares in today's teaching that the Corinthian Church was much the same way. Believers were suing one another over money and property disputes. This is NOT how God's people are supposed to operate. Christians are blessed with the Holy Spirit and the Word of God and should be able to handle disputes like this outside of the courtroom. If you find yourself in a disagreement with a fellow Christian, aim to settle the matter gracefully and in private.

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of 1 Corinthians chapter 6 as he begins his message, Lawsuits Among the Lord's People.

As a follower of Jesus, you're not meant to walk alone. In today's teaching, Pastor John encourages you to get plugged into fellowship with other believers. You need the accountability, support, and prayer that comes when you do life with others. Living a life of purity is challenging, but you'll find that it gets easier when you invite people into your journey. Consider joining a small group or inviting some friends from your church over for dinner. Find people who you can grow closer to Jesus with.

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of 1 Corinthians chapter 4 as he continues his message, Sin Among the Saints.

We're living in a world that calls good evil and evil good. Today, you'll hear Pastor John teach in his message that as a believer, you are to follow God's Word. This means living a life of purity and holiness. Unfortunately, sexual immorality isn't only rampant in the world today but also within the Church. In His Word, God sets clear boundaries for sex. It is meant to be had within the covenant of marriage, between one man and one woman. Honor the Lord by following His good design for sexual intimacy.

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of 1 Corinthians chapter 4 as he continues his message, Sin Among the Saints.

Would you describe your life as pure? Today in his teaching, Pastor John encourages you to live a life of purity before God. You don't live a holy life to earn salvation, but you do so to glorify God. Jesus died for your sin-- not so that you could go on and continue in your sinful behavior but so that you can find freedom and forgiveness. You're not called to look just like the rest of the world. You're called to be set apart. That's what it looks like to be a child of God. Repent today of your sins and live a life of purity.

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of 1 Corinthians chapter 4 as he begins his message, Sin Among the Saints.

Did you know that you've been entrusted with dispensing God's Word? Today, in his message, Pastor John urges you to be a faithful steward of the Word of God. Sharing the Gospel isn't just the responsibility of your pastor. It is the duty of every follower of Christ. God uses ordinary people to do extraordinary things. Think of the people in your life who don't know Jesus yet-- family members, friends, neighbors, co-workers. The Lord has entrusted you with His Word. Will you partner with Him in sharing it?

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of 1 Corinthians chapter 4 as he continues his message Be Wise About Ministry.

Are you faithful? You'll be challenged in today's teaching from Pastor John to live a life marked by faithfulness. Consider whether you are being faithful to all that the Lord is calling you to-- to God, your family, your ministry. Is faithfulness being woven throughout the fabric of your life? If the answer is no, identify your areas of weakness and repent for them. Then, ask the Holy Spirit to help empower you to grow in this area as you work to faithfully steward this life the Lord has blessed you with.

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of 1 Corinthians chapter 4 as he continues his message, Be Wise About Ministry.

Man's wisdom is not the same as God's. We can find ourselves in trouble when we neglect the important elements of ministry in favor of the carnal ones. You'll hear Pastor John teach in today's message about the importance of using your gifts to build up the Church, God's way. God's way isn't interested in flashy gimmicks and programs. It is by engaging in prayer, the Bible, service, and following the Holy Spirit. Your motive in all things should be bringing God glory. When you focus on that, you will bear fruit.

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of 1 Corinthians chapter 3 as he continues his message, Be Wise About Ministry.

Do you have a fruitful heart? Pastor John describes this in today's message as being a place where the Word of God grows. Are you letting the Word of God take root and flourish in your heart or is it only finding shallow ground? Pray and ask the Lord to give you a fruitful heart. Pray that His Word would not return void but that it would find fertile ground in you. Keep pursuing God by spending time in prayer and studying His Word. This is what leads to a softened heart that bears the fruit of the Spirit.

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of 1 Corinthians chapter 3 as he begins his message, Be Wise About Ministry.

Ouch! Did you feel called out? You'll learn in today's teaching from Pastor John what it means to be a 'carnal Christian.' This is someone who is saved but living like an unbeliever. Is that you today? Don't settle for a saved soul but a wasted life. Take ownership of your faith. Ask the Holy Spirit to help you go deeper in your walk with Jesus. Spend time in the presence of the Lord. Read your Bible. Discover the fullness of a life spent in a close relationship with Jesus. You'll find there is no greater joy than this.

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of 1 Corinthians chapter 2 as he continues his message, The Three Divisions of Mankind.

Unbelievers can't make sense of the hope and joy that Christians have in the midst of painful situations and trials. When you sing at a grave site, you are bearing witness to the Gospel. Today, in his message, Pastor John shares about the three ways people respond to God's wisdom. There are unbelievers, believers, and believers who live like unbelievers. If you are a follower of Jesus, live like one. Live in a way that intrigues people to ask 'why,' 'where does your hope come from?'. Tell them about your Savior.

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of 1 Corinthians chapter 2 as he begins his message, The Three Divisions of Mankind.

What situation are you facing that you need God's wisdom to understand? Have you looked to God's Word and asked the Holy Spirit for help? You perhaps have asked the Holy Spirit to empower you, but did you know you can also ask Him to fill you with Godly wisdom? Today, in his message, Pastor John encourages you to pray and ask the Holy Spirit to fill you with this wisdom. As you encounter difficult situations and decisions, take time to pause and ask the Holy Spirit to give you revelation.  

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of 1 Corinthians chapter 2 as he continues his message, The Wisdom of God.

Who are some of your favorite Christian pastors and leaders? In today's teaching, Pastor John asks you to consider if it is the Biblical truth and content that attracts you to them or if it is their personality, gifted story-telling, and humor. Paul implored the Corinthian church not to overly focus on these traits but rather to make sure your number one focus is on Jesus and learning the truth of God's Word. As you reflect on your favorite speakers, consider whether it is their skill or content you are drawn to.

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of 1 Corinthians chapter 2 as he begins his message, The Wisdom of God.

When the world sees you putting your faith in a peasant who lived two thousand years ago and died a criminal's death, they call it crazy. To the human mind, it makes no sense. But as you'll hear in today's teaching from Pastor John, true wisdom is found in the Lord. Not by one's intellect or ability. Salvation comes when you put your faith in Jesus. To the unsaved, the cross is foolishness. To the saved, it is the power of God. Don't follow human wisdom that leads nowhere. Put your faith in the One who saves.

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of 1 Corinthians chapter 1 as he continues his message, The Foolishness and Weakness of God.

If you've put your trust in Jesus and been born again, then you have more wisdom than the greatest minds of this world. Today, you'll hear Pastor John share in his message that the wisdom of the world is foolishness to God. Don't be intimidated by worldly wisdom and philosophies. To know God is to have wisdom. You have all the understanding you need when you are saved, studying the Word of God, and walking with Jesus. All the education in the world is not enough to save you. Only Jesus can.

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of 1 Corinthians chapter 1 as he begins his message, The Foolishness and Weakness of God.

A carnal Christian follows the desires of the flesh rather than the Spirit. Pastor John warns in today's message against being carnal. Carnality causes strife and quarreling, which eventually leads to division. A divided church is a weak church. The Apostle Paul urged the Corinthian church to be united and focused on Jesus. They were getting caught up in petty arguing and gossip. Friend, let this not be you. Instead, commit to living by the Spirit, following Jesus, and being a united member of the body of Christ.  

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of Galatians chapter 6 as he continues his message, Cliques in Corinth.

There is no one more unifying than Jesus. The body of Christ is made up of people from every background. People of every race, age, socio-economic group, and country come together as one. You'll hear in today's teaching from Pastor John that this is God's design for the Church, but sometimes we can focus too much on our differences, and that leads to division. It's so important that you don't get bogged down by your preferences, and instead focus on what you have in common: your belief in Jesus.

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of 1 Corinthians chapter 1 as he begins his message, Cliques in Corinth.

Think back to the day you accepted Jesus into your heart. Likely, you were overwhelmed with gratitude and awe for the God who saved you. In today's message, Pastor John shares about his first weeks of walking with the Lord. What a wonder it is that Jesus takes broken people and gives them new life! Is that your story, too? Have you experienced the life change that comes from knowing Jesus? That is confirmation of Christ living in your heart. You undergo a transformation that comes only by knowing Him.

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of 1 Corinthians chapter 1 as he continues his message, Thanksgiving for a Troubled Church.

Jesus told His disciples that they were to be in the world but not of the world. This is true for all believers. In today's teaching, Pastor John begins unpacking Paul's letter to the Corinthian church. Corinth was a city that could be compared to Las Vegas. It was known as a hub for sin and debauchery. That lifestyle of sin had infiltrated the Church like water in a boat, threatening to sink it. Has this happened to you? Are you being influenced by the culture? Jesus is calling you to live a holy, set-apart life.

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of 1 Corinthians chapter 1 as he begins his message, Thanksgiving for a Troubled Church.

Ruth and Naomi were destitute. They were without hope and devastated by the circumstances in their lives. Yet, because they had a rescuer, their lives were redeemed. Today, Pastor John will teach how Jesus fulfills all the roles of the redeemer in your life and for all who believe. He, though God, became a man to be your kin, and through His perfect life, he was able to redeem you from sin. He was willing to do whatever He had to do to save you and, after His death, completed the work for all who’d believe.

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of Ruth chapter 4 as he continues his message Redemption.

Ruth’s story was filled with tragedy, difficulty, and plenty of uncertainty. But, because Naomi planted the seeds of faith in God, Ruth chose to believe and walk in faith in Him. And because of that, her story had a happy ending. What began with death and sorrow, God turned into great blessing and joy.   Today, Pastor John will remind you that you, too, can have a happy ending. Though your life may resemble Ruth’s troubles at times, you can trust God and walk in faith just like Ruth.

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of Ruth chapter 4 as he begins his message Redemption

It’s easy to follow God when He makes life comfortable and when things make sense. It can be much more challenging when things are difficult. When God’s will for your life isn’t exactly what you want, you may stumble. Your will and desires are always present and feel the most important. But, today, Pastor John will encourage you to submit your will to God. Ask Him what HIS will is for you, and then follow it. He’s got the best for you, even if life doesn’t make sense. Trust Him and follow Him, no matter what.

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of Ruth chapter 3 as he continues his message Finding Rest.

It’s all too easy to try to walk through life in your own strength, trying to control everything and forget to rely on God. This kind of life will wear you out and ultimately not benefit you. Instead, Pastor John teaches today, live under the providential care of God, rely on Him, and find rest in Him. He’s strong, when you’re weak. He’s wise when you’re foolish. As you seek to live under God’s care, you must be filled with His Spirit. The Holy Spirit will guide and strengthen you and unite you with God.

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of Ruth chapter 3 as he begins his message Finding Rest.

Many believers often wish for God to give very detailed plans and steps along the way in their life of faith. If He’d only tell you exactly what to do, when to do it, and what He’ll do for you, you’d have great confidence. However, as Pastor John teaches today, God doesn’t often give you the whole story. He asks you to trust Him each step of the way, even if you don’t know what’s next. He asks you to believe that He has the best plans for you that far exceed your own plans and efforts. He won’t let you down.

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of Ruth chapter 2 as he continues his message It Just So Happened.

When you’re in difficult or painful circumstances, you may wonder why God is leaving you in that situation, despite your desperate prayers for release. The natural response to trials is to get out of them as quickly as possible. However, as Pastor John teaches today, God may be leaving you in those circumstances in order to change you. If He lifted you out of every difficulty, you’d never grow, mature, or become more like Jesus. It’s through these crises that God will do a good work in you.

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of Ruth chapter 2 as he begins his message It Just So Happened.

When you’re going through a time of great suffering, you can easily become bitter in life and angry at God. Despite her own sorrow, Ruth didn’t grow bitter. Instead, she turned to the faith Naomi taught her and rested in the hope that God offered. She had learned to trust God and wait on Him, and through all she was going through, she became the woman God desired her to be. Pastor John reminds you today that Jesus can give you joy in your circumstances too. So don’t grow hard and bitter but stay hopeful in God.

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of Ruth chapter 1 as he continues his message Running From Your Problems.

When you are in the midst of trials and suffering, you feel like it’ll never end and that there’s no purpose in it. It’s easy to lose hope. Pain has a way of blinding you to anything but the suffering you’re experiencing. However, as Pastor John teaches today, God has good for you beyond your suffering. He can see what you can’t. All you see is your pain, but He sees a different future. So, instead of running from your problems, or blaming God for the circumstances, trust Him. Wait on Him and hold onto Him in hope.

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of Ruth chapter 1 as he begins his message Running From Your Problems.

We don't often use the word Gentile today. It's a term used to describe a non-Jewish person. At the time of the Early Church, this distinction was a major deal. Today, Pastor John reminds you that the prophets, Mary and Joseph, and even Jesus Himself, were...Jewish. In His grace and mercy God offered salvation to the Gentiles but it's important to honor and remember where it all began. Don't let your salvation cause you to look down on the Jews! They're the root that supports you, not the other way around!

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of Romans chapter 11 as he continues his message, Israel's Future Restoration.

“We get the crumbs that fall from the Master's table.” This refers to the fact that we, as Gentiles, have been offered salvation along with the Jews. You'll hear Pastor John emphasize in today's teaching that God, in His MERCY, grafted us by grace into His family. You have been invited into the most amazing story in history. Will you say 'yes'? Jesus, the Son of God, gave His life to pay the price for your sins. It was a debt you could NOT pay. Accept Jesus as the Lord and Savior of your life today.

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of Romans chapter 11 as he continues his message, Israel's Future Restoration.

There are faithful believers on every corner of this planet. Do not for one-second doubt that God is still working. Today, in his teaching, Pastor John shares the story of Elijah. Elijah stood against the prophets of Baal and proved without a doubt that our God reigns over all. But when Israel still refused to follow the Lord, Elijah was in despair, thinking he was the only faithful person left. Yet God told him there were seven thousand who did not worship Baal. There's much God can do through a remnant minority!

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of Romans chapter 11 as he continues his message, Israel's Future Restoration.

The people of Israel have had a target on their backs throughout all of history. In modern times, we saw Hitler attempt to wipe out the Jews, and many nations today are seeking to destroy Israel. Yet, as you'll hear today from Pastor John, God WILL NOT allow that to happen. Israel is God's chosen nation, and He will fulfill every promise He has made to them. To come against Israel is to come against God. Diligently keep Israel in your prayers and pray that their eyes will be opened to the truth of who Jesus is.

Jesus is the only way into heaven. Being a good person is not enough. Having Christian parents is not enough. Your salvation is YOUR responsibility. Through grace, Jesus offers you the gift of eternal life when you believe in Him. To receive it, you must accept it. You can't put a gift into closed fists.

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of Romans chapter 10 as he continues his message, Israel's Present Rejection.

Jesus was not just a good teacher. He was not just a prophet. As you'll hear today from Pastor John, He is God. He intercedes to the Father on your behalf. You cannot reach God without Jesus. He is your mediator. Your sin separates you from God. When Jesus died on the cross for your sins, He took the wrath that you deserve. You can stand blameless before God because of the work that Jesus did on the cross. Don't misunderstand who Jesus is. He is ONE with God, and salvation is found in Him alone.

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of Romans chapter 10 as he begins his message, Israel's Present Rejection.

You can trust that God's character remains unchanged. He is faithful, trustworthy, and good. He always keeps His promises. In today's teaching from Pastor John, you'll hear about the privileges God has given Israel. They have been blessed by God beyond measure. Yet, Israel has chosen to turn away from the Lord time after time. Nevertheless, God remains faithful to His people. He hasn't forsaken them. Even when you mess up and turn from God, you can trust that He's waiting for you with open arms.

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of Romans chapter 9 as he continues his message, Israel's Past Election.

When was the last time you interceded on behalf of a loved one? Today, Pastor John shares that the apostle Paul was devoted to sharing the Gospel with unbelieving Jews. He was desperate for them to know and follow Jesus. Who is the Holy Spirit burdening you to pray for? Pray that God would soften their hearts and that they would encounter Jesus. Ask God to provide an opening for you to share the Gospel with them. Don't become indifferent. Don't stop praying. Your intercession is valuable and important.

This will result in a greater capacity for forgiveness and a focus on restoration. When you put your faith in Jesus, He transforms your life, and that includes your marriage.

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of Matthew chapter 19 as he continues his message, Divorce and Remarriage.

We live in a day and age where people get divorced for a myriad of reasons. In today's teaching, Pastor John highlights that divorce displeases God. As a follower of Christ, divorce should not be an option for you and your spouse. Marriage symbolizes the relationship between Jesus and the Church. It's important to be quick to forgive, full of grace, and to keep your vows close to your heart. Remember that love, patience, and forgiveness honor the Lord and contribute to a deeply fulfilling marriage.

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of Matthew chapter 19 as he begins his message, Divorce and Remarriage.

The unity of marriage is beautifully reflected in sexual intimacy. It is a wonderful gift from God meant to be enjoyed within the covenant of marriage. Today, you'll hear Pastor John encourage you to meet your spouse's physical needs. Don't withhold sex as a weapon. You'll find that doing so will have disastrous consequences. Instead, let it unify and bond you and your spouse. Make intimacy a top priority, and never underestimate its importance. It's an essential part of God's blueprint for marriage.

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of 1 Corinthians chapter 7 as he continues his message Intimacy in Marriage.

Many people have fallen for the lie that sex isn't a big deal. As you'll hear in today's teaching from Pastor John, this couldn't be further from the truth. Sex is a gift from the Lord and is meant to be enjoyed within the covenant of marriage between one man and one woman. It's a picture of unity and oneness. When you engage in sexual relationships outside of marriage, you are disobeying God. Regardless of any mistakes you may have made, make a commitment today to start honoring the Lord in this area.

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of 1 Corinthians chapter 7 as he begins his message Intimacy in Marriage.

Husbands, are you honoring your wife highly? Today, Pastor John will urge you in his message to demonstrate your love for your wife through your words and actions.

Guys, where does your mind go when you get home at the end of the day?

Jump in and help out with dinner and the kids. Be a present, active, and available partner. God's calling you to love your family this way. It can be tempting to get home and zone out, but you won't get this time back. Honor your wife by being truly present tonight.

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of 1 Peter chapter 3 as he continues his message, The Husband's Role.

Men of God, it's time to man up! Today in his message, Pastor John urges you to be the spiritual leader of your family. It should not be your wife's responsibility to get you to pray, read your Bible, and attend church. That is YOUR job! As a man, you have been entrusted to lead your household and this includes in spiritual matters. Your family is counting on you. Let this be the day that you declare, “As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.” That is what it looks like to love, lead, and care for your family well.

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of Ephesians chapter 5 as he continues his message, The Husband's Role.

Husbands, are you loving your wife with an agape (ah-gah-pay) love? This love seeks her highest good and loves her unconditionally. Today, in his message, Pastor John challenges you to lead and love your wife well. You can't do this on your own. You need the Holy Spirit. Make sure that you're walking with the Lord, spending time in prayer and His Word. Pray for your wife and your marriage and family. Demonstrate the sacrificial love of Christ by the way that you care for and love your wife.

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of Ephesians chapter 5 as he begins his message, The Husband's Role.

Your mission is to do what God calls you to do. As you'll hear Pastor John teach in his message today, for wives, this looks like submitting to your husband as unto the Lord. There will be times in your marriage when you don't want to follow your husbands leadership. When that happens, remember that you ultimately are submitting to the Lord. It brings honor and glory to God when you follow His design for marriage. Your marriage will thrive when you and your spouse pursue the Lord together and follow His instructions.

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of Ephesians chapter 5 as he begins his message, The Wife's Role.

Have you repented for your sins and placed your faith in Jesus? If the answer is yes, then you've received the Holy Spirit.

It's not something that you have to strive to earn; it is a gift given by God to empower you in your walk with Jesus. You'll find that the Holy Spirit helps sanctify you and gives you the boldness to live out your faith. Your marriage will greatly be improved when you and your spouse are both filled with the Spirit.

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of Ephesians, chapter 5 as he begins his message How to Correct It.

Are you struggling to live a Godly life? Is your marriage suffering? Today, you'll hear Pastor John teach a message about the culture's influence on marriage. As Satan realizes his time on earth is shrinking, he is desperately attacking marriage. The love of self and money is being promoted everywhere you look. This isn't the love that God instructs you to have. It's dangerous and will lead to your downfall. Jesus says that to follow Him, you must die to yourself. Are you willing to put the needs of others before your own?

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of 2 Timothy chapter 3 as he begins his message The Characteristics of the Last Days.

Your marriage is under attack. Satan hates marriage and is trying to destroy yours. You'll learn in today's teaching from Pastor John that the best way to fight the devil is with the Word of God. This is the sword of the spirit. When Satan tried to tempt Jesus in the wilderness, Jesus used scripture to thwart his attack. Spend time studying and memorizing the Word of God with your spouse. It will strengthen your marriage and help you to overcome sin when faced with Satan's lies and temptations.

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of Genesis chapter 3 as he continues his message How Satan Corrupted It.

You'll learn today in Pastor John's message that the good news is there's a way to combat his efforts. Spend time with the Lord. Study God's Word together as a family so that when Satan tries to cast doubt on what God says, you know the truth. Be so connected to Jesus through prayer, worship, and studying His Word that you cannot be tricked by the devil's schemes. Resist the devil, and he will FLEE.

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of Genesis chapter 3 as he begins his message How Satan Corrupted It.

Did you know that Satan hates marriage? You'll learn in Pastor John's message today that Satan is actively trying to destroy marriage because he hates all that it represents and stands for. Be careful not to give him a foothold in your marriage. Stay united, remembering that your marriage is a picture of Jesus and the Church. Creating a healthy marriage can be difficult, but it's worth the effort. Work hard to build a strong and stable foundation so that your love can grow, thrive, and reflect Christ.

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of Genesis chapter 2 as he continues his message How God Created It.

Culture has made attempts to redefine the institution of marriage. Yet, as you'll hear in today's teaching from Pastor John, marriage cannot be redefined by man because man did NOT define it in the first place. Marriage is a DIVINE institution designed and defined by GOD. It's a life-long covenant between one man and one woman with the purpose of bringing the Lord honor and glory as it reflects the relationship between Jesus and the Church. Despite what the world says, you can trust God's design for marriage is good.

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of Genesis chapter 2 as he begins his message How God Created It.

There have been many predictions made over the years as to when Jesus will come again and when the world will end. Today, Pastor John warns in his message that ANY interpretation of scripture that sets a date for Jesus' return is WRONG. Jesus said that no one will know the day or the hour except for the Father. As we await His coming, remain faithful, watching, and ready. The Rapture could happen at any moment. Be prepared for His return and share the hope and message of Jesus with others.

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of Matthew chapter 24 as he continues his message What Jesus Taught About The End Of Time.

Have you ever wondered who the antichrist might be? Maybe you've heard people theorize about it. In today's teaching from Pastor John, you'll be encouraged to STOP looking for him. Instead, look for Jesus. Keep your eyes fixed on the Savior. If you've placed your faith in Jesus, you won't be here to experience the terror of the antichrist. A day is coming when the Church will be raptured. Focus on sharing Jesus with those in your life who need to hear of the salvation found in Christ alone.

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of Matthew chapter 24 as he continues his message What Jesus Taught About The End Of Time.

What an amazing truth! Today, in his message, Pastor John shares the good news that once you're with Jesus, whether in heaven or by being raptured, you are with Him FOREVER. There will never be a time when you're separated from Him. You'll be with Him in Heaven, return to Earth with Him during the Millennial Kingdom, and be with Him in the construction of a New Heaven and a New Earth. Imagine being in the presence of Jesus for all eternity. That's the reward that awaits you if you've put your faith in Jesus!

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of Matthew chapter 24 as he continues his message What Jesus Taught About The End Of Time.

We are living through dark and difficult times. Many wonder how much longer it will be until Jesus returns. In his message today, Pastor John explains that the Rapture will happen prior to the Second Coming of Christ. Those who've put their faith in Jesus will meet the Lord in the sky and leave earth. If you think things are bad now, just wait until the Church is no longer on earth. Things will quickly go from bad to worse. You don't want to be here when that happens. Get right with the Lord and put your trust in Jesus today.

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of Matthew chapter 24 as he continues his message What Jesus Taught About The End Of Time.

If the Rapture took place today, would you be ready? Today, you'll hear Pastor John teach about two distinct events: the Rapture of the Church and the Second Coming of Jesus. The Rapture will happen first, and that's when all those who believe in Jesus will be taken into heaven from the earth. This could take place at any time! No one knows the day this will happen. As you watch and wait, remain faithful and ready. Remember the times you're living in! Live for Jesus and share His Good News with others!

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of Matthew chapter 24 as he continues his message What Jesus Taught About The End Of Time.

Do you have questions about the End Times? You're not alone. Even the disciples of Jesus had questions about it. Today, in his teaching, Pastor John dives into the Olivet Discourse- a teaching Jesus gave to His disciples from the Mount of Olives. Some have made the error of interpreting this text to be about the Rapture, but it's important to understand that Jesus was talking about His Second Coming, NOT the Rapture. A day is coming when ALL will have to give an account. Have you put your faith in Jesus?

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of Matthew chapter 24 as he begins his message What Jesus Taught About The End Of Time.

Who do you believe Jesus to be? This is the most important question you will ever answer. Today, in his message, Pastor John tells you exactly who Jesus is. Spoiler alert- HE IS GOD! Jesus wasn’t just a wise teacher or another prophet, as many people believe. He is the King of kings and the Lord of lords. He has NO equal. He is ONE with the Father. Truly God and Truly Man. Do you believe that He is who He said He is? Receive forgiveness for your sins and eternal life when you put your faith in Him.

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of Philippians chapter 2 as he begins his message, The Sovereign Who Suffered.

Have you ever wrestled with understanding how Jesus can be God AND Man? Today, Pastor John warns us not to misunderstand who Jesus is. Jesus is truly God and truly Man. Being that Jesus is God, His nature is unchanging. Who you understand Jesus to be matters. He was NOT merely a human who did good things. HE IS GOD. He laid aside His glory when He came to earth, but He did not lay aside His deity. Jesus came to pay for your sins, defeat death, and demonstrate the Father’s deep love for you.

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of Colossians chapter 1 as he continues his message, The Sovereign Who Suffered.

Are you Bible-literate? Do you spend time studying the Word of God? Sadly, many Christians today do not. You’ll hear Pastor John share in today’s teaching that a large number of pastors are failing to teach doctrine. Instead, they choose to give topical, situational messages which leads to a weakened Church. Don’t let the culture form your doctrine. You aren’t meant to fit in with the world, be set apart and holy. Investigate what the Bible teaches and let that be the lens through which you see the world.

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of Philippians chapter 2 as he begins his message, The Sovereign Who Suffered.

They say hindsight is twenty-twenty. Today, Pastor John teaches about our limited perspective. Think back to some of the hardest trials you have faced. When you reflect on those situations now, can you see how God was moving and working for your good in that hardship? You can trust that God is for you. He works all things together for the good of those who love Him. He has a much grander perspective on your life than you do. The next time you’re experiencing a trial, take comfort in knowing God’s got you.

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of Philemon chapter 1 as he continues his message, Philemon: The Polite Letter.

Think of the people in your life who mean the most to you. When was the last time you told them you appreciate and love them? Today in his message, Pastor John encourages you to do just that. Start with your spouse. The next time you’re tempted to complain or speak harshly to them, take a deep breath. Consider what it would look like to speak life into them instead. What would would happen if you expressed more gratitude than grievance? Start today by telling someone how much they mean to you.

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of Philemon chapter 1 as he begins his message, Philemon: The Polite Letter.

Try inviting someone to join you for lunch. Friendship is a beautiful, essential component of your walk with Jesus. Don’t neglect it! Love God and others. If you want friends, BE a friend!

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of Colossians chapter 4 as he continues his message, Christ in our Friendships.

Think of a friend who’s going through a hard time. In today’s teaching from Pastor John, you’ll be challenged to be there for your friend. The Apostle Paul describes in his letters friends who stood by his side through thick and thin. He had friends praying for him, visiting him in prison, getting shipwrecked with him. That’s what true friendship looks like. It looks like steadfast love and commitment. It looks like cheering your friend on as they run their race. Today, reach out to your friend who’s in need.

Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of Colossians, chapter 4 as he begins his message, Christ in our Friendships.

Do you know how to share the Gospel effectively? The Gospel is this; you’ve sinned against a holy God and are in need of a Savior. God sent His only Son, Jesus, to die on the cross for your sins.

Today, in his teaching, you’ll hear Pastor John give instructions on how to teach and train your children in the ways of the Lord.
