In this message from the “Go and Do Likewise” series, Pastor John Romick walks through the Good Samaritan story. He calls believers to find an inn (a church where they can put down roots), find an innkeeper (a pastor and flock who will care for them), and then strengthen the inn that once carried them. If you have been living uprooted, this message will challenge you to plant yourself and grow.
Pastor Joel Sims teaches from Romans 12:10 and 13 on prioritizing devoted brotherly love and practical care within the church as a true family—contributing to the needs of the saints and practicing hospitality—while drawing on passages from 2 Peter, Galatians, James, Matthew, 1 Timothy, and Acts to call believers to mutual, sacrificial support that reflects Christ.
Pastor Joel Sims teaches the church’s first value: Go. From Luke 10 the Good Samaritan saw the wounded man, felt compassion, and stopped; this is a picture of Jesus, and our responsibility to go and do likewise.
In part 5 of the Romans 12 series, Pastor Joel Sims teaches from Romans 12:9, that love is the highest Christian value—greater than tongues, prophecy, faith, generosity, or even martyrdom. Walking through First Corinthians 13, he shows what genuine love looks like: patient, kind, free of jealousy and pride, honoring, selfless, unprovoked, and unwilling to keep score. Real examples from everyday life make the call practical. Let love be without hypocrisy. Make it the thing you are famous for.
In the final episode of Dealing with the Devil , Pastor Joel Sims exposes how the enemy gains access to our lives—and how to shut the door. The key? Give him no place. The devil may be real, but never forget: Big God. Little devil.
In Dealing with the Devil, Pastor Joel Sims teaches from 1 Peter 5 that there is no resistance of the devil that is not spoken. He shows three levels of attack: influence through thoughts and temptation, oppression through strongholds in one area of your life, and the rare total control of possession. Recognize the devil and his tricks, then respond with the Word.
In “Run, Devil, Run,” Pastor Danny Romick continues Dealing with the Devil and declares that the devil is a defeated foe whose only power is lies and deception.
In the opening message of Dealing with the Devil, Pastor Joel Sims teaches from 1 Peter 5 that you have an adversary, and his power is staying hidden. What is happening in your mind, marriage, or family is not only natural. See him. Resist him. He flees.
In part 4 of the Romans 12 series, Pastor Joel Sims unpacks the motivational gifts of Romans 12:6-8—prophecy, service, teaching, exhortation, giving, leadership, and mercy—showing how each believer has a unique grace to activate for the good of the body of Christ. Building on the call to be a living sacrifice and be transformed by the renewing of the mind, he challenges listeners to stop merely consuming ministry and instead deploy their gift so the whole church is strengthened and inspired.
In Pride Takes the Credit , Pastor Joel Sims teaches from Daniel 4 that pride takes the credit and humility gives thanks. Nebuchadnezzar built Babylon and credited himself until God removed the grace that had been holding him together.
