In Week 4 of In the Beginning, Pastor Rodney explores John 16, highlighting how Jesus’ departure was necessary to fulfill God’s plan of abiding presence through the Holy Spirit. Jesus assured His disciples that the Advocate would convict the world of sin, guide them in truth, and empower them to live out God’s will. This abiding presence transforms our lives in three key ways: our salvation through faith in Jesus, our sanctification as we grow in righteousness, and our preparation for eternal rewards. Despite trials, Jesus’ victory over the world gives us peace and hope for the future. Listen and be challenged.

Pastor Samson's sermon, "The Good Shepherd," focuses on Jesus' declaration in John 10 as the door and the good shepherd. We are challenged to examine whether our faith is built on a genuine relationship with Christ or mere performance, reminding us that true Christianity centers on following Jesus and obeying His voice. Through the Word, fellowship with believers, the Holy Spirit, and surrender, we can hear and recognize the voice of the Good Shepherd and experience the abundant life He promises. Listen and be challenged.

In week two of "In the Beginning", Pastor Rodney highlights how Jesus’ invitation to receive "living water" represents the fulfillment of spiritual thirst through the Holy Spirit, meeting our deepest longings beyond temporary pleasures. The sermon contrasts worldly desires with true satisfaction found in Christ, encouraging us to recognize our need for Him and trust fully in His provision. Jesus offers abundant life freely to anyone who believes, inviting all to experience lasting fulfillment in Him. Listen and be challenged. 

In week one of our new collection of talks, "In the Beginning", Pastor Rodney's sermon "The Framework of Faith" emphasizes that faith requires a solid structure built upon key elements: the Word of God, the Spirit of God, the people of God, and surrendering to God. Scripture serves as the foundation for spiritual nourishment and growth, requiring daily engagement, much like food sustains the body. The Holy Spirit transforms the dark and empty parts of our lives, breathing new spiritual life and guiding us to fulfill God’s purpose. Finally, as members of God’s family, we are called to live in community, accountable to one another, and to fully surrender to God's will, aligning our beliefs with our actions for a life of obedience and impact. Listen and be challenged.
