[02/06/2022 AM] When Satan Attacks Our Resolve (Acts 6:9-7:60)

Speaker: Pastor Matthew Walker

Scripture: Acts 6:9-7:60

One of the concerns that many theologians have expressed recently is their belief that Christians in America are spiritually weak. The concern is that real persecution would result in the church crumbling under the burden of suffering. However, Scripture reveals that Christians have always risen to meet such a crisis with great resolve. This is not because they are so strong, but because they are Spirit-filled. A great example of this is Stephen, who is considered to be the first martyr for Jesus. He showed us how to respond

[1/30/2022 PM] A Fresh Look at the Free Gift of Eternal Life (Romans 6:20-23)

Speaker: Joseph Jo

Scripture: Romans 6:20-23

 

The Romans Road to Salvation has been a helpful system to succinctly present the gospel message. While there is nothing wrong with using this system, it is also important to understand the meaning of each verse used before using it. We will give a fresh look at Romans 6:23 (which is at the core of the RR system and often misunderstood by many) to better grasp what it truly means to receive eternal life in Christ.

Betrayed and Deserted: What Jesus Teaches Us About Dealing with Relationship Disasters (Matthew 26:47-56)

Not every friendship is guaranteed to last. We have all experienced those times when friendships seem to fail. When it is a casual friend, it can be discomforting. But it is life-changing when a close friend walks away from us. In the final hours of Jesus’s life, His reaction to Judas and the other disciples helps us learn how to properly handle friendship failures.

[2022 Missions Conference] The Priority of Preaching (Acts 2)

[1/9/2022 PM] Understanding the Prophecy of the Old Testament (Obadiah 1:1-21)

Speaker: Matthew Walker

Scripture: Obadiah 1:1-21

One of the most difficult sections of the Bible to read is the section of Old Testament Prophecy. In fact, much of the material in this section is horribly misunderstood. Even the role of the OT prophet is misunderstood. This misunderstanding hinders our ability to comprehend their words and apply them into the context of our modern day.

[1/9/2022 AM] When Satan Attacks Our Primary Purpose (Acts 6:1-7)

Speaker: Pastor Matthew Walker

Scripture: Acts 6:1-7

The main job of a pastor is to faithfully preach God’s word. In 2 Timothy 4:2, the Apostle Paul commanded his son-in-the-faith Timothy to “preach the word!” Unfortunately, some pastors and some churches do not see the importance of this. Other jobs, some of them quite important and necessary, replace the most important task of preaching. Let us never let that happen at College Park.

Understanding the Poems of the Old Testament (Psalm 82)

Speaker: Matthew Walker

Series: How to Study the Bible Effectively

Our series on learning to study the Bible effectively continues tonight with a look at one of the poems of the Old Testament. This section of Scripture encompasses the five books between Job and Song of Solomon. The poem we will consider is attributed to Asaph and is part of book 3 of the Psalms. Tonight’s sermon: Understanding the Poems of the Old Testament. (Psalm 82)

Helping Others Follow Christ to the Glory of God (Romans 15:1-7)

On this first Sunday of 2022, let us consider a theme for the year based on our core values of worship, discipleship, and fellowship. These values are the basis of our church philosophy and help to center everything we do as a church. This year, let us think about how these values apply to church-life as we all grow up into Christ

[12/26/2021 AM] A New John 3:16 (John 20:21)

Speaker: Pastor Matthew Walker

Scripture: John 20:21

Our Christmas series concludes today on a high note as we consider the truth that we have been sent, just like our Lord Jesus was sent. Jesus was sent to do the Father’s will by speaking His words and doing His works. In the same vein, we have been sent to do our Savior’s will by speaking His words and doing His works. This is what God wants for us today.
