Wednesday Night Summer Bible Series, Pete Schrader teaches on Titus 2:11-14.

VBTS Professor Dr. Tom Dailey preaches on 1 Peter 2:11-25.

Remember that God’s nature is to love and show mercy to His enemies. That doesn’t mean that He devalues justice, but wherever there is a bit of repentance, His nature is to forgive and to be patient, even when people continue to get it wrong. That was true for the Ninevites, that was true for us, and that remains true for those who offend and threa…

Wednesday Night Summer Bible Series, Jonathan Bean teaches on Matthew 6:5-15.

Dr. Eric Lehner preaches on 1 Peter 1:22-2:10.

The Ninevites repented at the preaching of Jonah. The Ninevites repented and turned from their wicked ways when they encountered the Sign of Jonah. And the men of Nineveh will rise up and condemn this evil generation because they repented at the preaching of Jonah, and behold, something greater than Jonah is here! Support the Show.

Do you know the shepherd? The good shepherd that prepares a table before me in the presence of my enemies and overflows my cup, so that everyone and everything around me is affected by His goodness. Do you know the shepherd that gave his life for me, so I can live my life for him. Do you know the shepherd? If you don’t know Him. You need to get to …

Wednesday Night Summer Bible Series, TJ Bowser teaches on Acts 17:16-34.

Pastor Brent Belford kicks off a new summer series in 1 Peter, and will return to Romans after the summer.

Jonah’s story is a pre-Christian story of Christian conversion and mission! Such is why it’s so important that Jesus points back to the “sign of Jonah.” Jonah spent three days and three nights in the belly of the great fish as a rebellious soul captured by God’s justice. He cried out to God and was saved by God’s unmerited grace, and he reentered t…

Wednesday Night Summer Bible Series, Zach Hilton teaches on Genesis 39:1-23.

Pastor Brent Belford preaches on Romans 12:3-8.

Jonah now represents those who have been born again. He has been forgiven; God answered his prayer in the deep; and God has blessed his affliction to serve as a sincere and humble testimony of God’s severe judgments and God’s unmerited grace.

Pastor Brent Belford preaches on Romans 12:2.

We cannot help but imagine Jonah’s humiliation as he emerges from three days in the belly of a fish, staggering onto the beach covered in fish vomit. Jonah’s story is our story...but ultimately, Jonah’s story is part of HIS STORY! So much of this man’s epic failure sets the stage for what Jesus will call, “The Sign of Jonah.” Support the Show. Than…

Phil Dauernheim teaches on Luke 18:1-8 for our Wednesday Night Summer Bible Series.

Pastor Brent Belford preaches on Romans 12:1.

Jesus knows that His Father is not a distant disciplinarian, but a close, compassionate Daddy who hears His Son, loves His Son, and is eager to act on His Son’s desperate cries for help. There is no one in human history who made a greater sacrifice than Jesus Christ did by dying for us on that cross some 2,000 years ago. Let’s honor Him today, and …

God wants to supply the power to the humble---God wants to use the ordinary ...the regular...the poorest...the weakest...so that when it is all said and done their will be no question to where the power came from when you look in your rearview...you will know that it was God who pushed you...it was God who propelled you...it was God that gave you s…

Pastor Brent Belford preaches on Romans 11:28-36.

Jonah’s prayer from the belly of the fish, highlights a self-centered nature and lack of repentance, yet acknowledges God’s grace in accepting Jonah’s flawed but honest plea. His prayer emphasizes the omnipresence of God and the importance of seeking His presence rather than fleeing, as God’s pursuit of us is relentless and His desire for a relatio…

Pastor Brent Belford preaches on Romans 11:25-27.

Like many of you, my greatest seasons of spiritual growth have come in seasons of involuntary confinement, so I am deeply motivated to form my own practice of askesis in the days to come. Church, our feelings will not lead us to practice askesis. But without confinement, concentration, and a deep awareness of our limits, we can easily become a “Jon…

Guest speaker Pastor Paul Campbell gives a ministry update and preaches on Ephesians 2:11-22.

There is a necessary dying that must take place before we will ever meet the LORD in the deep. It is a dying to self. It is a dying to our pride and our idolatry. It is a dying to our self-made, self-promoting, self-centered worldview. It is a necessary dying...and that’s exactly where Jonah is right now. Support the Show. Thanks for listening! Fol…

Pastor Brent Belford preaches on Romans 11:1-11.

If you know yourself to be saved…if you truly believe that you were bound for destruction in a storm of your own making and you were saved when Jesus took the dive on your behalf, then you will exceedingly fear the LORD. Love makes sacrifices. The call to substitutionary love is not optional for Christians; it defines Christians. Support the Show. …

Pastor Brent Belford preaches on Romans 10:14-21.

Take a good hard look into your identity. Listen carefully to the words that come out of your mouth. Be open to the possibility that you have an “othering” problem. Everything you hold dear is soon to be tested, and the test will reveal your true allegiance. Jonah is on the run from God. He has no intention of obeying God’s call upon his life to co…

Pastor Brent Belford preaches on Romans 10:5-13.

Jesus died so that you can have hope...the pain is hard...the people talk about you...the struggles are deep...but the closer you get to Jesus...the sweeter it gets...you began to look past the pain...and give praise...you began to look past the insults...and see a crown of righteousness...you began to look past the heartache...and see the glory of…

When Christ Jesus commands us to “go and make disciples,” implicit in the dynamic of how that will actually happen is an understanding that we’re not only preaching the gospel to those God sends us to but also to “go and live the gospel” out with someone we are Discipling. Go to your culture my friends . . . wherever the Holy Spirit is calling you,…
