Even In The Darkest of Times
There are many good father figures in the Bible to look up to. There are many that are hailed as heroes of the faith and often spoken of and remembered, but there are also those that don’t truly get the recognition they deserve. Join Reverend Kenny Yates as he sheds some light on an overlooked father figure in his Father’s Day Message, A Father’s Legacy.
The LORD God has promised good things to those who love Him and are called according to His purposes. So, what does that have to do with Pentecost that took place 2000 years ago? Join Reverend Kenny Yates as he shows us a Light in the darkness in his Pentecost Sunday message, The Hope of Pentecost.
God gave the people of Israel 7 feasts to celebrate. 3 of these feasts were a mandatory pilgrimage to Jerusalem, Shavuot (the Feast of Weeks), is one of them. This feast was fulfilled by the outpouring of the Holy Spirit, which was the birth or founding of the Church. Is there anything else to feast? Join Reverend Kenny Yates as he opens our eyes to a mystery of the Feast of Weeks, in his Shavuot message, Two Loaves.
Once a year, we remember our fallen soldiers. We take time out of our busy schedules in order to honor their selfless sacrifice. Their sacrifice is often overlooked and forgotten, but this weekend, let us take a moment to remember, honor, and give thanks for their sacrifice. Join Reverend Kenny Yates as he opens our minds to a parallel sometimes overlooked in the Church, in his Memorial Day message, Remembering The Price of Freedom.
From the very beginning of a person’s life, conception, a person depends on their mother. A mother will carry their baby for nine months, and then once they have given birth to their child, they will breastfeed, nurture, and love that baby. The bond between mother and child is unlike any other that we have on this earth. A mother’s love is like none other, as is the heartbreak of a mother is unlike anything we have on this earth. Join Rev. Kenny Yates as he touches our hearts with his sobering message, A Mother’s Unconditional Love.
Each year, we celebrate the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. The crucifixion has been depicted time after time. Often times deemed too gruesome to watch, but did these filmmakers truly go too far with their depiction of the cross, or has the Church watered down Jesus’ sacrifice? Join Reverend Kenny Yates as he opens our eyes to the full burden Christ carried on this earth in his message, He Suffered It All For Us.
Three of the most overused words in our culture today are “I love you,” not because the words aren’t necessary, but because they no longer hold any meaning. We don’t know what love is, not true love. We don’t even know how to define love, nor can we identify it when we see it. Join Reverend Kenny Yates as he opens our eyes to the true definition of love in his Valentine’s Day message, An Acceptable Kind of Love.
One thing we all agree on is, “in the beginning,” after this phrase, we begin to go our separate ways. Some believe that God created Heaven and Earth. Some believe that there was an ancient war that destroyed and corrupted the earth before God created light. While others believe that God created nothing and we evolved from apes. Now, even though each of these realms of thought is different, they have one thing in common: they all believe in a beginning. Therefore, there has to be something special about the beginning that not even the Devil can erase. Join Reverend Kenny Yates as he opens our eyes to the original model God had for our lives in his message, In The Beginning.
There are many days to come that are prophesied throughout Scripture. Days of tribulation and days of rejoicing. Days of oppression and days of freedom, but many people believe that there are only good days to come for the Church because we’ve already been redeemed. But is that true? Do we, the Church, get to escape the coming woes on the earth because of our salvation? Join Reverend Kenny Yates as he prepares us for the coming perilous times in his message, The Days of Sorrow.
Every Christmas season we talk about the shepherds, the wise men, Mary and Joseph, but rarely do we talk about Simeon and Anna. These two seem to be missed most Christmases, but their stories are very important. Why? Join Reverend Kenny Yates as he parallels our day and age with the days of the birth of Jesus in his Christmas message, The Quest For Christmas Pt. 3: Simeon & Anna’s Christmas Quest.
