Through vivid storytelling and theological depth, Pastor Johnson emphasizes that to truly know God is to inevitably love Him—and this love leads to transformation.

Raising Godly Kids in a Chaotic World: Hard Truths for Parents 58:03

منذ 4 weeks58:03

58:03

In this heartfelt and challenging message, Pastor Jeffrey Johnson explores the vital themes of discipline in both parenting and the church. Preaching from 2 Corinthians 2:5–11, he reflects on the biblical necessity of discipline, not as a punishment rooted in anger, but as a redemptive and loving correction essential for growth, order, and maturity. Using the context of church discipline in Corinth, Pastor Johnson draws powerful parallels to parenting, addressing the struggles many face in finding balance—between being too harsh or too lenient. With transparency about his own journey as a parent, he encourages believers to pursue discipline that reflects God's own character: measured, consistent, and loving. The message emphasizes the importance of early and clear instruction for children, the dangers of both neglect and overcorrection, and the ultimate goal of instilling self-discipline and pointing children to Christ. For churches, the sermon is a sobering reminder that discipline, though painful, is necessary to preserve holiness and unity in the body of Christ. Whether you’re a parent in the trenches or a church leader seeking biblical direction, this sermon offers wisdom, encouragement, and a call to faithful, loving correction grounded in the gospel.…

This Is Why Religion Can’t Save You—But Jesus Can 45:48

منذ 6 weeks45:48

45:48

In this powerful and deeply reflective sermon, Pastor Jeffrey Johnson takes us back to 2 Corinthians 1:19–20 to explore the profound truth that in Christ, God's answer is always "Yes." Through vivid illustrations and heartfelt teaching, Pastor Johnson contrasts the world's constant "no"—no peace, no fulfillment, no lasting joy—with the unchanging "yes" we find in Jesus. We are reminded of our utter dependence on God, the futility of searching for contentment in ourselves or the world, and the deep need we have for grace. Pastor Johnson masterfully unpacks how every promise of God finds its fulfillment in Christ, offering us not just temporary relief but eternal hope, peace, and joy. Whether you’re feeling lost, burdened by guilt, or striving for satisfaction through religion, relationships, or success, this message invites you to the only source of true rest—Jesus Christ, who never turns away those who come to Him. This sermon will lead you to worship, not by your works, but through the finished work of Christ.…

How to Handle Criticism Without Losing Your Faith 42:03

In this heartfelt and deeply instructive sermon, Pastor Jeffrey Johnson unpacks the Apostle Paul's response to harsh and unfair criticism from the Corinthian church—a church he had planted and served sacrificially. Drawing from 2 Corinthians 1:12 through 2:4, Pastor Johnson highlights Paul's godly approach to being misunderstood, misjudged, and personally attacked by those he loved. Pastor Johnson explores the pain of being criticized, especially by those close to us, and challenges believers to respond not with retaliation or withdrawal but with sincerity, integrity, and love. Through Paul's example, we learn seven key ways to respond to unfair criticism: with sincerity, pure motives, gospel-centeredness, unity, kindness, unselfishness, and above all, love. This message is a powerful encouragement for anyone facing criticism, offering both theological depth and practical wisdom for maintaining Christlike character under pressure. A must-listen for anyone navigating difficult relationships within the body of Christ.…

What Only Affliction Can Teach You About God 52:57

منذ 7 weeks52:57

52:57

In this powerful message, Pastor Jeffrey Johnson explores 2 Corinthians 1 and introduces what he calls "The School of Affliction"—a divine seminary in which every believer is enrolled. Unlike traditional academic settings, this school teaches through suffering, trials, and hardships, where God Himself is the instructor. The goal? Not mere intellectual knowledge of theology, but a deep, experiential understanding of God's comfort, mercy, and presence. Pastor Johnson outlines seven transformative courses in this school: Theology Proper, Biblical Counseling, Christology, Practical Ministry, Personal Piety, Faith, and Prayer. Through these, believers come to know God intimately—not just as a concept, but as a personal refuge and source of strength in the darkest hours. This affliction, though painful, shapes believers into compassionate, humble, and faithful ministers who can comfort others with the same comfort they’ve received from God. Whether you're in a season of peace or deep suffering, this sermon encourages listeners to see trials not as setbacks but as God’s way of drawing them closer to Him and equipping them to serve others. The message is a heartfelt call to embrace God’s refining work, trusting that through affliction comes genuine faith, tested character, and the sweet reality of God’s sustaining grace.…

Enduring the Silence: What to Do When God Doesn't Answer 38:28

منذ 10 weeks38:28

38:28

In this deeply pastoral and heartfelt sermon, Pastor Jeffrey Johnson addresses those enduring prolonged seasons of trial and silence from God. Drawing from Isaiah 30 and other scriptural references, he encourages listeners with the powerful truth that God's silence is not absence. When we hear nothing, God is still speaking — and His message is often a single, challenging word: "Wait." Pastor Johnson unpacks ten profound truths embedded in this divine call to wait, reminding us that God's timing is perfect, and His delays are purposeful. From cultivating patience and endurance to trusting in His sovereignty and awaiting a greater deliverance, each point offers comfort and clarity for the weary soul. Whether you're in the midst of suffering, feeling abandoned, or questioning God's presence, this message will strengthen your faith and renew your hope. This sermon is a must-hear for anyone needing reassurance that God sees, hears, and is actively working — even in the silence.…

The Hidden Gospel in Ruth 39:42

منذ 11 weeks39:42

39:42

In this powerful conclusion to the book of Ruth, Pastor Jeffrey Johnson unpacks the climactic fourth chapter as a rich allegory of the Gospel. Highlighting Boaz as a clear type of Christ, our kinsman redeemer, Pastor Johnson shows how this real-life love story foreshadows the redemptive work of Jesus. From Boaz’s legal integrity and strength to his gracious restoration and lasting legacy, the sermon draws deep spiritual parallels between Old Testament events and the New Testament Gospel. Pastor Johnson emphasizes that Christ did not bypass the law—represented in the sermon as "Moses Law"—but fulfilled it entirely, purchasing our redemption legally, righteously, and at great personal cost. Through Christ’s obedience, sacrifice, and grace, believers are not only redeemed but restored to eternal inheritance. This message ultimately invites worship and gratitude for the incomparable glory of our Redeemer, Jesus Christ, who alone has the power to give life to the dead.…

In this powerful message from Ruth chapter 3, Pastor Jeffrey Johnson speaks directly to the heart of anyone battling despair, depression, or hopelessness. Drawing from the turning point in Naomi and Ruth’s story, he reveals how hope is rekindled through God's Word, prayer, our Redeemer, and the Holy Spirit. Pastor Johnson shares raw and personal testimony of his own struggles with suicidal despair, connecting it to Ruth's journey from emptiness to hope through God's providence and grace. This sermon emphasizes that true hope is not found in circumstances but in the promises of God. Through the symbolic actions of Ruth and the kindness of Boaz, Pastor Johnson illustrates how God's plan redeems even the darkest seasons. If you've ever questioned whether joy can return or whether God sees you in your pain, this message will point you back to the sure hope found in Christ alone. Whether you're in a storm or walking with someone who is, this sermon is a timely reminder: the Redeemer is near, and He will not leave you empty.…

When You Fall Into Sin, Here's What God Wants You to Do 42:40

In this heartfelt message from Ruth 2, Pastor Jeffrey Johnson reminds us that even when we are burdened by guilt, shame, and fear, God's response is not rejection—but welcome. Like Ruth, who sought refuge under the wings of the Redeemer, we are called to run to God, not away from Him. Pastor Johnson shares eight powerful reasons why we should bring our sins directly to the Lord: He will not turn us away, He will protect us, provide for us, speak kindly to us, satisfy our souls, lavish His grace upon us, never reproach us, and fully redeem us. Through personal stories and deep biblical reflection, Pastor Johnson paints a vivid picture of the overwhelming kindness and mercy of God. Whether you are struggling with ongoing sin or simply need encouragement to draw near to Christ, this sermon is a tender call to find rest, forgiveness, and satisfaction under the wings of our Redeemer. Listen in and be encouraged to run—without delay—to the gracious arms of our Savior.…

You Can Be Completely Forgiven — Here’s How (and WHY!) 48:26

منذ 13 weeks48:26

48:26

In this profound sermon, Pastor Jeffrey Johnson explores the deep significance of Romans 4:25, reminding us that our hope and joy are firmly rooted in the resurrection of Jesus Christ. Pastor Johnson challenges us to shift our eyes off ourselves and onto the empty tomb, recognizing that Christ’s resurrection is not just a miraculous event, but the ultimate proof of the gospel’s power. The mystery is not that Jesus, the innocent and righteous Son of God, rose from the dead—this is expected for one without sin—but that He died at all. How could one without sin face death, when Scripture clearly states that the wages of sin is death? The answer lies in the incredible truth of double imputation: our sins were legally and spiritually transferred to Christ, and His righteousness has been transferred to us. Using vivid and relatable illustrations—a ruined golf scorecard exchanged for a perfect one, a debt-ridden bank account replaced with infinite riches, a guilty defendant receiving a spotless record—Pastor Johnson brings home the heart of the gospel message. He emphasizes that Christ's death is the undeniable proof that our sins were imputed to Him, while His resurrection is the glorious confirmation that His perfect righteousness is now imputed to us. Without the resurrection, we would have no assurance that our sins were truly paid for or that we could stand justified before a holy God. Pastor Johnson carefully walks us through the gravity of our sinfulness, laying bare the complete and overwhelming record of our guilt before God. He invites us to imagine standing before the divine Judge, facing every commandment we have broken, every sinful thought and deed exposed. Yet, he points us to the incredible hope that because Jesus bore our sins and rose victorious from the grave, our shameful record has been fully wiped away. Through Christ, we are not merely forgiven but declared righteous, clean, and accepted. The resurrection is the proof of the "great exchange": Christ took our place, bore our guilt, and suffered our punishment so that we could receive His life, His innocence, and His eternal inheritance. Pastor Johnson closes with a heartfelt invitation: no matter the weight of your past sins or the shame you carry, you can be completely forgiven today. You can walk in freedom, assured that your record of sin is nailed to the cross and buried forever. Through faith in Christ, you are made new, justified, and able to approach God not in fear, but in the perfect righteousness of Jesus Himself. This sermon is a rich and stirring reminder of why the resurrection is central to our faith, a call to rejoice in the forgiveness and freedom we have in Christ, and an invitation to everyone to experience the full assurance of salvation.…

Why Most People Walk Away from Jesus (And Don’t Even Know It) 48:52

منذ 15 weeks48:52

48:52

Jeffrey Johnson begins his message by inviting the congregation to turn to Ruth 1:6–18 as he continues the series on the gospel according to Ruth. Before diving into the passage, he reflects on the church’s upcoming 25th anniversary, marveling at how quickly time has passed and how abundantly God has blessed the church. Drawing a connection to 2 Chronicles and the story of Jehoshaphat, he recalls how the Lord fought the battle for Israel, turning their fear into overwhelming blessing—a metaphor Johnson uses to describe God's provision for the church over the years: “Our cup is overflowing.” He transitions from personal gratitude to the text, focusing specifically on verses 14–18. In this moving scene, Ruth chooses to stay with Naomi, clinging to her rather than returning to Moab like Orpah. Johnson uses this image as a powerful spiritual metaphor, asking: Are you kissing Christ, or clinging to Him? Like Ruth and Orpah, many people may weep, show emotion, and have affection for Christ, but only a few truly cling to Him with a total, lifelong commitment. He parallels this idea with the rich young ruler who approached Jesus, desiring eternal life, yet went away sorrowful because he was unwilling to give up everything. Johnson urges the congregation to examine whether they have fully surrendered to Christ or are still negotiating with God, offering only partial obedience. Ruth, by contrast, exemplifies full devotion—leaving behind her homeland, family, gods, and comforts to follow Naomi into an unknown land. Johnson emphasizes that to cling to Christ means to turn your back on everything else, to follow Him wherever He leads, to embrace all of Him, and to submit to Him completely as your God. Throughout, he uses vivid personal and biblical illustrations: his father's unintentional idolatry of a relic collection, the story of Demas who abandoned Paul for love of the world, and young men he's counseled who walked away from obedience despite knowing the truth. He reminds the congregation that Christ doesn’t offer half-hearted discipleship—He demands everything, and in return offers everything. The message crescendos with Ruth's declaration: “Where you die, I will die.” Johnson explains that true discipleship isn’t a temporary emotional decision—it’s a lifelong commitment. We must cling to Christ until death, not merely “kiss” Him in fleeting affection. He calls both the lost and the saved to examine their hearts: are they clinging to Christ with everything, or are they being pulled back to Moab? Johnson ends with a pastoral plea for the kind of faith that, like Ruth’s, says to Jesus: “I’m not letting go.” He prays that God would grant this kind of whole-hearted repentance and enduring faith, giving Him all, and following Him in trust and joy until the end.…

Can God Redeem a Life That’s Been Completely Wrecked? 41:39

منذ 16 weeks41:39

41:39

In this powerful opening message from the series on The Gospel According to Ruth , Pastor Jeffrey Johnson reframes the familiar story of Ruth not as a romantic tale, but as a profound picture of redemption. He highlights that Naomi—not Ruth or even Boaz—is at the center of this story, as it mirrors our own desperate need for salvation. Through Naomi's journey from fullness to emptiness, from pleasantness to bitterness, we see ourselves: utterly ruined, spiritually bankrupt, and in need of a Redeemer. Pastor Johnson unpacks the devastating consequences of sin—not only in our own lives but in the lives of those around us. Drawing from Ruth chapter 1, he emphasizes that salvation is not about God seeing potential in us, but about His grace rescuing us when we had absolutely nothing to offer. This is the essence of the gospel: Christ, our kinsman Redeemer, steps into our hopelessness, not because of our merit, but because of His mercy. This sermon lays a sobering yet necessary foundation for understanding grace and sets the stage for the hope-filled redemption story to come. If you’ve ever felt like you’ve made a mess of your life or wondered if you’re too far gone, this message is a must-listen.…

Why You're Anxious—and What to Do About It 28:02

منذ 16 weeks28:02

28:02

In this powerful and deeply pastoral message, Jeffrey Johnson addresses the very real struggle of anxiety and how it often stems from our desire for control and a lack of trust in God's sovereignty. Drawing from Scripture, particularly Jesus’ words in Matthew 6, Pastor Johnson unpacks the nature of anxiety—how it overloads our minds with unproductive worry, often paralyzing us instead of propelling us toward peace. Using relatable analogies like speed wobbles while snowboarding or a plane in distress, he illustrates how anxiety often signals a loss of perceived control. But rather than trying harder to manage what is beyond our grasp, we are called to submit under God's mighty hand, casting all our cares upon Him, because He cares for us. Johnson reminds us that life is more than our careers, children, health, or finances—our highest calling is to glorify God. And that purpose cannot be taken from us, regardless of our circumstances. Through practical steps and spiritual truths, this message offers both comfort and conviction, helping believers redirect their focus from tomorrow’s worries to today’s obedience, from fear to faith, and from self-reliance to full surrender. If you’ve been battling anxiety or looking to help others through it, this sermon is filled with biblical hope and encouragement for the weary soul.…

When You’re Powerless, Pray Like This 38:32

In this powerful sermon, Pastor Jeffrey Johnson explores King Jehoshaphat's heartfelt and strategic prayer in 2 Chronicles 20 during a time of overwhelming fear and national crisis. With invading armies threatening Judah, Jehoshaphat turns to God—not with vague desperation, but with focused, reasoned prayer built on God's character, promises, and past faithfulness. Pastor Johnson challenges believers to go beyond emotional outbursts in prayer and instead engage both heart and mind. Drawing on rich examples from Scripture and church history, he presents five key arguments we can use in prayer to prevail with God: Appeal to who God is – our Father and sovereign Lord. Remind God of His past works – His faithfulness in history. Claim God’s promises – boldly and confidently. Appeal to His glory – aligning our needs with His name and purposes. Confess our helplessness – keeping our eyes fully on Him. Listeners are encouraged not only to hear the message, but to actively pray during the sermon—applying the structure of Jehoshaphat’s prayer to their own deepest needs. With urgency and clarity, Pastor Johnson emphasizes that prayer with reasoned faith moves the heart of God. If you're seeking breakthrough, peace, or direction, this sermon will inspire and equip you to pray with clarity, power, and confidence.…

Why Aren’t My Prayers Being Answered? 57:44

منذ 17 weeks57:44

57:44

This sermon by Jeffrey Johnson offers a deeply pastoral and theologically rich exploration of what it means to abide in Christ and how that abiding is essential to a powerful and effective prayer life. At the heart of the message is the truth drawn from John 15—that we cannot bear fruit, including the fruit of meaningful prayer, unless we are connected to the Vine. Johnson makes it clear that abiding in Christ is not about mere religious activity but about union with Christ, remaining in close fellowship with Him as the source of all spiritual life, power, and love. He emphasizes that prayer is not something we simply do with our words; it is something we do with our entire lives. Our actions, our affections, our thoughts—all are to be in alignment with Christ. In that alignment, our prayers are not only heard but are effective and powerful. The metaphor of Christ as the Vine and we as the branches is used beautifully to explain how every aspect of our Christian life flows from our connection to Him. Johnson explains that Christ is not just the giver of life and power—He is life and power itself. To abide in Him is to be a conduit through which His grace, love, and strength flow. We cannot manufacture love for God or others on our own. Instead, we must receive it from Christ. Just as Jesus received love from the Father and shared it with us, so too we are to receive Christ’s love and let it flow through us to others. Only then can we obey His commands, love our enemies, or live lives that glorify God. Johnson does not shy away from addressing the impact of sin on our prayer lives. He reminds us that cherishing sin severs the flow of grace and renders our prayers ineffective. God hears the prayers of the righteous, not because of their own merit, but because they are abiding in the righteousness of Christ. Yet, if we cling to sin while praying for God’s blessings, we are living in contradiction and should not expect results. The remedy is repentance and a return to abiding. Practical guidance is given as well. Johnson outlines five ways we abide in Christ: by abiding in His Word, in His fruitfulness, in His love, in His commands, and in His joy. These are not legalistic duties but life-giving practices that keep us connected to the source. Abiding in His Word transforms our thinking; abiding in His love fuels our affections; abiding in His joy fills our hearts with strength. When we live this way, our prayers become more aligned with God’s will and more likely to be answered—not because we have earned His favor, but because our desires are shaped by His heart. Perhaps most encouraging is Johnson’s reminder that God will not say no to Jesus—and if Christ is in us, then our prayers carry that same weight. As we live in Him and allow His life to flow through us, we will find our prayer lives growing more powerful, not because of eloquence or effort, but because of deep connection. Ultimately, this sermon is a passionate call to live as recipients of divine love, not striving in our strength, but continually drawing from Christ, who is our everything.…

Why Some Prayers Go Unanswered 49:00

In this powerful sermon from James 5:16, Pastor Jeffrey Johnson challenges us to examine the depth and fervency of our prayer lives. Not all prayers are equal—some are full of faith, passion, and power, while others are empty, rote, and lifeless. True, prevailing prayer requires engagement of both the heart and mind, with a sincerity and forcefulness that moves the hand of God. Pastor Johnson unpacks five key elements of fervent prayer: sincerity, earnestness, desperation, forcefulness, and determination. Using biblical examples such as Hannah, Elijah, and Jacob, he illustrates how heartfelt, passionate prayer is what God desires from His people. Just as a weak handshake lacks strength, weak, apathetic prayers fail to reach the heart of God. Instead, we must wrestle with Him in prayer, refusing to let go until He blesses us. Are your prayers marked by true desperation and desire for God's will? Do they reflect a deep longing for His presence and power? This message is a call to become men and women of prayer—prayers that move mountains, transform lives, and bring revival. May we seek God with all our hearts, knowing that He hears and answers those who pray with fervency and faith.…

The Key to Powerful and Effective Prayer 48:44

In this powerful sermon, Pastor Jeffrey Johnson explores the deep and sometimes mysterious passage in Matthew 21, where Jesus curses the fig tree and teaches on faith in prayer. Focusing on verse 22— "Whatever you ask in prayer, you will receive, if you have faith." —Pastor Johnson unpacks the essential role of faith in our prayer lives. Faith, he explains, consists of knowledge, confidence, and reliance on God's Word . It is not based on emotions, circumstances, or mere positive thinking but is deeply rooted in the unchanging promises of Scripture. Using examples from Scripture, including George Mueller’s unwavering trust in God’s provision and Elijah’s persistent prayers for rain, Pastor Johnson emphasizes that true faith looks beyond what is seen and fully expects God to fulfill His Word. The sermon provides practical guidance on how to pray in faith , outlining five key principles: Pray Dependently – Recognizing our own weakness and fully relying on God. Pray Assuredly – Standing firmly on the promises of God without doubt. Pray Receptively – Accepting and believing that God will fulfill what He has already promised. Pray Boldly – Asking for big things, knowing that God is able. Pray Expectantly – Trusting that God will answer and looking for His response. Ultimately, Pastor Johnson challenges us to pray with unwavering trust , not in ourselves, but in the One who never fails. If we desire a more effective and powerful prayer life, we must approach God with faith—believing His promises, seeking His will, and expecting Him to work.…

The Missing Key in Your Prayer Life 46:52

In this powerful message from Ephesians 6:18 , Pastor Jeffrey Johnson challenges believers to deepen their prayer lives, moving beyond routine prayers to truly praying in the Spirit . He emphasizes that prayer should not be a mere duty but a sweet and precious communion with God , empowered by the Holy Spirit. Sharing his recent struggles with illness, Pastor Johnson illustrates how difficult it can be to pray when we are weak, yet he urges us to fight for time with Christ , refusing to settle for a shallow prayer life. Instead, he calls us to seek a Spirit-led, fervent, and effectual prayer life that transforms our walk with God. To pray in the Spirit , we must listen intently to three key voices: the Word of God, the Holy Spirit, and an informed, sensitive conscience . The Spirit speaks through Scripture, aligning our prayers with God's will. He also convicts, empowers, and leads us as we pray, giving us the faith and passion to approach God boldly. Additionally, a Spirit-shaped conscience helps us discern how to pray and obey God’s leading in our daily lives. Pastor Johnson reminds us that prayer is not just about speaking to God—it is also about listening. When we are sensitive to the Spirit, our prayers become more than empty words; they become powerful, Spirit-filled petitions that align with God’s heart and bring us into true fellowship with Him . As we seek to grow in prayer, may we daily ask, "Holy Spirit, breathe new life in me." Let us commit to praying in the Spirit, allowing Him to shape our prayers, our desires, and ultimately, our lives.…

The Path to Revival 44:09

In this compelling sermon, Pastor Jeffrey Johnson unpacks Psalm 85:6, where the psalmist prays, "Will you not revive us again, that your people may rejoice in you?" With a deep yearning for revival in our churches, souls, and communities, he emphasizes the extraordinary power and presence of God working through the ordinary means of grace: prayer, preaching, worship, and the Word. Pastor Johnson defines revival as a supernatural manifestation of God's Spirit, sovereignly transforming lives. He contrasts true revival with shallow emotionalism, urging us to recognize that lasting change, conversions, and spiritual renewal come only through the Spirit's work. This message challenges believers not to fall into passivity or despair over God's sovereignty but to respond with fervent prayer, faithful evangelism, and deep belief in the Spirit's power. The sermon outlines three actionable steps for those longing for revival: Pray—Beseech God for the Holy Spirit's work in personal lives and communities. Evangelize—Share the Gospel boldly, trusting the Spirit to use your words. Believe—Have faith in God's promises and His power to save and sanctify. Pastor Johnson calls for a posture of humility, dependence, and persistence in prayer and action. He reminds us that revival cannot be manipulated but must be earnestly sought, always pointing to the ultimate hope found in Jesus Christ. This message is a stirring call to seek God wholeheartedly, labor for the salvation of the lost, and trust in His sovereign work to revive hearts and churches for His glory.…

The Mystery of Prayer 44:57

منذ 27 weeks44:57

In this compelling message, Jeffrey Johnson dives into James 4:2, challenging us to reflect on the mystery and power of prayer. Drawing from the verse, “You have not because you do not ask,” Pastor Johnson addresses common doubts and excuses that hinder prayer, such as misunderstandings about God’s sovereignty and our own limitations. The heart of the sermon lies in 11 motivating reasons to pray. Pastor Johnson reminds us that prayer is both a command and a privilege, offering believers communion with God, increased faith, and the opportunity to participate in His divine work.

In this impactful sermon, Pastor Jeffrey Johnson explores the biblical foundation of praying in accordance with God’s will, drawing from 1 John 5:14-15. He encourages believers to approach prayer with confidence, emphasizing that God hears and answers prayers that align with His divine purposes. Pastor Johnson contrasts this with the dangers of prosperity gospel theology, exposing its false promises of health and wealth in exchange for faith and financial contributions. He warns against treating God like a genie, reminding believers that prayer is about submitting to God’s will, not demanding our desires. Pastor Johnson outlines three principles for effective prayer: praying submissively, persistently, and dogmatically. For uncertain matters, he urges believers to submit to God’s wisdom, trusting that He knows what is best. For requests clearly aligned with Scripture, he calls for persistent, fervent prayer without losing heart. Lastly, he encourages believers to pray dogmatically when claiming God’s promises, standing firm in faith that God will fulfill what He has pledged in His Word. Throughout the sermon, Pastor Johnson highlights the transformative purpose of prayer—not to change God’s will but to align our hearts with His perfect plan. He assures listeners that prayers rooted in faith and submission to God’s will are powerful and effective, leading to spiritual growth and deeper intimacy with the Lord. By holding firmly to God’s promises, such as assurance of salvation, forgiveness of sins, and provision of wisdom and grace, believers can approach prayer boldly, knowing God’s answers will always work for His glory and our good. This message is a call to pray with humility, faith, and confidence, persistently seeking God’s will in every area of life. Pastor Johnson reminds us that through prayer, we experience God’s transforming power and the joy of His presence, even amid life’s challenges.…

In this powerful and practical sermon based on 1 Corinthians 16:5-14, Pastor Jeffrey Johnson offers biblical wisdom on how to plan for the future while trusting God’s guidance. As we approach a new year, this message provides seven principles to help believers make thoughtful, faith-filled plans aligned with God’s will. Key Themes and Insights: 1. Make Plans with Purpose – Pastor Johnson emphasizes that it’s not unspiritual to set goals and make plans. Drawing from Paul’s example, he highlights the importance of having direction and aspirations to foster discipline and avoid distractions. 2. Submit Plans to God – While planning is good, Johnson reminds us to hold our plans loosely, always acknowledging God’s ultimate control and sovereignty (James 4:13-15). Trusting God eliminates anxiety about the future. 3. Focus on Today’s Opportunities – Faithfulness in the present prepares us for the future. Johnson encourages believers to steward the current opportunities God has provided rather than becoming paralyzed by uncertainty. 4. Face Opposition with Faith – Challenges and adversaries are often signs that God is at work. Instead of fleeing from resistance, we’re called to stand firm and persevere (verse 9). 5. Don’t Go It Alone – God designed us for community. Johnson stresses the importance of working with others, seeking wise counsel, and sharing the load in ministry and life decisions. 6. Be Strong in Faith – Planning requires courage and reliance on God. Believers are called to act with strength and maturity, trusting God’s faithfulness in every circumstance. 7. Let Love Motivate Your Plans – Finally, all plans should be guided by love for God and others (verse 14). Johnson challenges listeners to avoid selfish ambitions and instead pursue goals that glorify God and serve others. Final Encouragement: Pastor Johnson concludes by encouraging listeners to trust God with their future, make wise plans, and walk forward in faith and love. He reminds us of Psalm 20:4—“May God grant your heart’s desires and fulfill all your plans.” This sermon is a timely call to step into 2025 with confidence, humility, and reliance on God, knowing that He is faithful to direct our paths.…

How to Experience God 54:19

منذ 32 weeks54:19

54:19

In this powerful message, Jeffrey Johnson unpacks Paul's heartfelt prayer in Ephesians 3:14-19, focusing on the ultimate Christian longing: to be filled with the fullness of God. Drawing from Paul’s prayer, Johnson explores the profound idea of experiencing a deep, transformative relationship with God—a revival of the soul where God's presence fills every part of our being, leaving no room for the world. He outlines four essential steps for encountering God and cultivating personal revival: prayer to the Father, the power of the Holy Spirit, faith in Christ, and being rooted and grounded in love. Revival, Johnson explains, is more than intellectual knowledge or external rituals—it’s a personal, felt experience of God’s glory and love that transforms hearts and lives. Through prayer, we humble ourselves, recognizing our dependence on God as the source of all blessings. By the Spirit’s power, our hearts are fortified to bear the weight of God's glory. Faith allows us to see and trust the unseen Christ, while love grounds us, enabling us to comprehend the immeasurable dimensions of Christ’s love. Johnson calls believers to reject dry, indifferent religiosity and instead pursue a vibrant, experiential walk with God. True revival, whether personal or corporate, begins with fervent prayer and results in a life overflowing with faith, love, and joy. He reminds us that God's riches are infinite, and we can never exhaust the depths of His love. This sermon challenges us to seek more of God, praying to be filled with His fullness and transformed by His presence. Let it inspire you to pursue deeper faith, greater love, and a closer walk with Christ.…

Are You Missing a Key Part of Worship? 52:57

منذ 33 weeks52:57

In this sermon, Pastor Jeffrey Johnson explores the grace of giving, urging believers to embrace generosity as an act of worship, obedience, and trust in God. Drawing from 1 Corinthians 16:1-4 and 2 Corinthians 8-9, he reflects on Paul’s instructions to the Corinthian church to support the impoverished saints in Jerusalem, emphasizing that giving is a reflection of divine grace at work in the believer’s heart. Pastor Johnson highlights four key reasons for giving: it is an act of worship that acknowledges God’s provision, an act of obedience to His commands, a safeguard against withholding what belongs to God, and a demonstration of trust in His provision even in times of scarcity. The sermon answers three vital questions about giving: why, when, and how much. Believers are called to give as an expression of their faith and love for God, to give regularly and in response to needs, and to give proportionately, generously, and sacrificially, as exemplified by the widow’s mite and the Macedonian churches. Pastor Johnson encourages believers to view giving as a joyful privilege, a way to glorify God, and an opportunity to grow in grace, just as we strive to excel in faith, knowledge, and love. Through this message, Pastor Johnson challenges us to shift our perspective on giving—from obligation to joyful response—trusting that God will meet all our needs and use our generosity to build eternal treasures. This sermon serves as a reminder that giving is a tangible expression of our worship and a way to reflect God’s abundant grace to others.…

What Gives Life Meaning in a World of Decay? 48:33

منذ 33 weeks48:33

48:33

In this thought-provoking sermon, Pastor Jeffrey Johnson expounds on 1 Corinthians 15, emphasizing the profound significance of the resurrection for our faith, purpose, and hope. He begins by highlighting the pervasive impact of sin on the world—bringing decay, suffering, and death to everything it touches. Against this backdrop of impermanence, Pastor Johnson reminds us that the resurrection of Jesus Christ provides the essential conclusion to human history and the ultimate solution to sin's curse. The resurrection assures us of three key truths. First, it is the gateway to fully entering the Kingdom of God. Our mortal, perishable bodies must be transformed into imperishable ones to inherit this eternal, heavenly kingdom. Second, it secures Christ’s complete victory over sin and death. By fulfilling the law and overcoming sin's power, Jesus’ death and resurrection grant believers new life and the promise of their own resurrection. Finally, the resurrection gives meaning to our work and lives in the present. Because of the eternal hope of the resurrection, none of our labor for the Lord is in vain. Pastor Johnson calls listeners to steadfastness, urging them to dedicate their lives to eternal investments. He reminds us that every act of service, no matter how small, is remembered and rewarded by God. This perspective inspires hope and purpose, motivating believers to live for eternity rather than the fleeting pursuits of this world. The sermon concludes with a heartfelt exhortation: live for Christ wholeheartedly, rid yourself of idols, and embrace the eternal treasures found in seeking God’s kingdom. The resurrection not only offers future glory but also transforms how we live and serve today.…

What Holds You Back from Being a Bold Witness? 28:26

منذ 34 weeks28:26

28:26

In this powerful message, Pastor Jeffrey Johnson explores Acts 4:5-12, a pivotal moment when Peter and John stand trial before the Sanhedrin. Just months after Peter's heartbreaking denial of Jesus, he now boldly declares the gospel in the face of severe persecution. What transformed Peter from a fearful denier into a courageous witness? The answer lies in the filling of the Holy Spirit. Pastor Johnson walks us through Peter’s journey of failure, restoration, and empowerment. He contrasts Peter’s fear before a servant girl during Jesus’ arrest with his Spirit-filled courage before Israel’s most powerful leaders. This sermon highlights that true boldness for Christ doesn’t come from self-confidence but from reliance on the Holy Spirit, who empowers believers with wisdom, love, and truth. Pastor Johnson challenges us to examine our own witness. Have we ever been silent when prompted to speak for Christ? He reminds us that God gives us opportunities to grow through these tests. To be effective witnesses, we must be filled with the Holy Spirit, which requires prayer and immersion in God’s Word. This message is a call to boldness, urging us to stand firm for the gospel no matter the cost, proclaiming the truth with love and courage, just as Peter did. A must-listen for those seeking to deepen their faith and their witness!…

What Will Our Resurrected Bodies Be Like in Heaven? 49:23

منذ 35 weeks49:23

49:23

In this sermon, Pastor Jeffrey Johnson explores the promise and mystery of the glorified bodies believers will receive at the resurrection, as described in 1 Corinthians 15. He likens this transformation to a journey filled with anticipation, comparing it to his past experiences of preparing for trips to Europe. Similarly, Christians can eagerly look forward to their ultimate destination in eternity, with a future that far exceeds human imagination. Drawing from the Apostle Paul’s teachings, Pastor Johnson addresses common questions: How are the dead raised, and what kind of bodies will they have? Using examples from nature, such as seeds dying to bring forth new life and caterpillars transforming into butterflies, he illustrates how our earthly bodies, sown in weakness and dishonor, will be raised in glory and power. These new bodies will be imperishable, spiritual, and modeled after the resurrected body of Christ. Key attributes of these glorified bodies include their uniqueness, glory, and immortality. Pastor Johnson emphasizes that while we cannot fully comprehend their nature, they will be perfectly suited for eternal life in God’s presence. Drawing on examples from Scripture, he shares how these bodies will be sinless, powerful, and possibly capable of abilities like Christ’s post-resurrection appearances, such as traveling instantly or even flying. The sermon concludes with a call to action: since this glorious future is guaranteed, believers should live steadfastly, investing in eternal treasures and abounding in the work of the Lord. Pastor Johnson reminds listeners that their labor is not in vain, as the rewards of resurrection will surpass all earthly sacrifices and expectations. This sermon is an inspiring reminder of the hope and joy Christians have in the promise of eternal life and glorification with Christ.…

What Are You Living For? 47:50

منذ 35 weeks47:50

47:50

In this sermon, Pastor Jeffrey Johnson emphasizes the centrality of the resurrection to the Christian faith and life, rooted in 1 Corinthians 15:29-34. He explains that without the resurrection, Christianity loses its meaning, rendering faith, suffering, and obedience futile. The resurrection not only guarantees our future bodily transformation but also underpins every aspect of our spiritual journey, beginning with baptism and extending to daily self-denial and service. Pastor Johnson highlights three key points: Baptism's Symbolism : Baptism represents death to the old self and resurrection to new life in Christ. Without the hope of rising with Christ, the act of baptism becomes meaningless. Suffering for Christ : The Christian life involves daily dying to self and enduring hardships for the sake of Christ and others. These sacrifices, Paul says, would be pointless without the resurrection's promise of eternal life. Obedience and Eternal Perspective : A life of holiness and sacrifice is only logical if there is a future resurrection. Christians are called to live not for temporary pleasures but for eternal glory, giving all to Christ as an act of worship. Pastor Johnson concludes with a challenge: to embrace suffering, relinquish earthly attachments, and live fully for Christ, knowing that the promise of resurrection secures eternal joy and unimaginable riches in the new heaven and earth. The sermon reminds believers that their hope is not in this fading world but in the everlasting life found in Jesus.…
