Strong Foundation
At the end of the Sermon on the Mount, in Matthew 7, Jesus talks about two builders. Two houses: one house stood… the other collapsed. Matthew 7.24 (ESV) Everyone then who hears these words of mine and does them will be like a wise man who built his house on the rock. A life built on Jesus and the words of Jesus is built to last. A life can look strong and still be fragile. Successful and still be hollow.…
Mary: The Lord’s Servant
Christmas is not primarily about how we find God—it’s about how God finds us. In this Advent message by Preaching Minister Gordon Dabbs, Ph.D., we step into the story of Mary, a young woman from an unremarkable town who became part of the greatest story ever told. Through humor, Scripture, and thoughtful reflection, this sermon explores how God works through ordinary lives, unlikely circumstances, and simple obedience. Mary didn’t have impressive credentials—but she had a willing heart. And when she…
Anna – No Expiration Date on Faith
What do you do when waiting becomes a way of life?

In this message from Preaching Minister Gordon Dabbs, Ph.D., “A Heart Like His,” we discover how God uses uncomfortable moments and unexpected grace to reshape our hearts to look more like His.

True Wealth
Money. Worry. Greed. Family fights over inheritance. Sound familiar? Jesus told a story 2,000 years ago that still lands like a punch in the gut today. In this message, Gordon Dabbs unpacks the Parable of the Rich Fool and shows why our value isn’t tied to our valuables—and why barns and bank accounts can’t buy eternal life. Instead of chasing temporary treasure, Jesus calls us to be rich toward God. 📖 Scripture: Luke 12:13–21, Hebrews 4:12, 1 Timothy 6:17–19 About…
