Success is often demonized and labeled evil by many people, especially those in the Church today, but this just isn’t Biblical. The LORD has plans for our lives. Each plan is different. Each ending is different. And each level of success is different. Success isn’t just one definition. Success looks different for each individual. So, now what? If the LORD wants me to be successful and has a plan for my life to achieve it, how do I know what His plan is, and how can I achieve His plan? Join Reverend Kenny Yates as he guides us through Scripture to find more necessary tools for a successful life in his message, Living For Success Pt. 2: The Happy Problem Solver.
Success is often demonized by the Church. It’s given a bad name, and those in the Church who find it are often condemned by their peers and the world. Many of us use Jeremiah 29:11 as a reason the LORD has no problem with success, but what if that verse isn’t about success at all? Or better yet, what if Jeremiah 29:11 isn’t about the Church at all? Join Reverend Kenny Yates as he reminds us of the Biblical definition of success in his message, Living For Success Pt. 1: The Road To Success.
The Prince of Peace was born 2000 years ago. There are people today who don’t believe that He even existed, much less makes an impact today. But is that true? Can we see the impact of Christ in our world today? Join Reverend Kenny Yates as he shows us the importance and impact of Christmas in his Christmas Message, The Father’s Christmas Gift Pt. 3: Peace On Earth The Night the Guns Fell Silent.
Jesus, the Word of God, has always existed, yet He had to grow in favor with God and in wisdom. Why? If Jesus is eternal and forever, why does He have to grow, learn, and study? Join Reverend Kenny Yates as he shares some Christmas insight in his Christmas message, The Father’s Christmas Gift Pt. 2: Growing In Favor.
Every year, we gather around and pass out gifts. Presents for each person. We unwrap the bows and decorative paper. During all of the rush and excitement of the day, do we take the time to remember the very first Christmas gift? Join Reverend Kenny Yates as he reminds us of the ultimate and first Christmas gift in his Christmas Message, The Father’s Christmas Gift Pt. 1: The Baby In The Manger.
When we think of the Beatitudes, we often think about the meek, the peacemakers, and the poor in spirit. Rarely do we think about the persecuted. See, when we begin to acknowledge the expected persecution of the Church, it becomes uncomfortable for many, so we like to pretend persecution isn’t for us, but for someone else. But what does the Bible say? What did Jesus say? Join Reverend Kenny Yates as he goes through the last of the Beatitudes in his sobering message, Heaven’s Values, Earth’s Calling Pt. 8: Blessed Are The Persecuted.
3 For I am the Lord your God, the Holy One of Israel, your Savior. I give Egypt as your ransom, Cush and Seba in exchange for you. 4 Because you are precious in my eyes, and honored, and I love you, I give men in return for you, peoples in exchange for your life. 5 Fear not, for I am with you; I will bring your offspring from the east, and from the west I will gather you. 6 I will say to the north, Give up, and to the south, Do not withhold; bring my sons from afar and my daughters from the end of the earth, 7 everyone who is called by my name, whom I created for my glory, whom I formed and made.
Isaiah 43:3-7
35 Thus says the Lord, who gives the sun for light by day and the fixed order of the moon and the stars for light by night, who stirs up the sea so that its waves roar—the Lord of hosts is His name: 36 “If this fixed order departs from before me, declares the Lord, then shall the offspring of Israel cease from being a nation before me forever.” 37 Thus says the Lord: “If the heavens above can be measured, and the foundations of the earth below can be explored, then I will cast off all the offspring of Israel for all that they have done, declares the Lord.”
In our world today, there is much unrest. Peace has truly been taken from the earth, so what exactly are we called to do? Be peacemakers. How? How are we to be peacemakers? Join Reverend Kenny Yates as he continues this journey through the Beatitudes in his message, Heaven’s Values, Earth’s Calling Pt. 7: Blessed Are The Peacemakers.

Jesus tells us ‘blessed are the pure in heart,’ but what exactly does that mean? Who are the pure in heart? How does someone obtain a pure heart?

God tells us that He will have mercy on whom He will have mercy. That statement sounds almost ominous. Almost as if there are people the LORD will refuse to have mercy own, yet He promises mercy to the merciful. How can these two both be true? Join Reverend Kenny Yates as he continues opening our eyes to the true meaning of the Beatitudes in his message, Heaven’s Values, Earth’s Calling Pt. 5: Blessed Are The Merciful.

We Christians have a unique message of mercy, grace, and forgiveness. Unlike any other religion, our God sacrificed Himself for us. But do we water down the rest of the Gospel in order to push these three things? Have we missed the mark as Christians? Do we truly know what it means to be a Christian? Join Reverend Kenny Yates as he opens our eyes to call of Christians in his message, Heaven’s Values, Earth’s Calling Pt. 4: Blessed Are Those Who Hunger And Thirst.
