Faith that Speaks— Anytime, Anywhere

Drawing from Mark chapter 14, Pastor Tom will consider the events that transpired the night before and the early morning of Jesus's crucifixion. As we study the narrative, we'll see how the Sanhedrin, Israel's highest court, convened an unlawful middle-of-the-night session to stop Jesus Christ and His preaching and teaching ministry. Yet while doing this, ironically, they proved His complete innocence and confirmed His true identity as the Christ, the Son of the Living God. Friend, let me ask you: are you fighting against Jesus Christ and His lordship, like the Pharisees? Or have you bowed the knee to Christ your Lord? Join Tom Pennington is he uncovers The Real Reason for Jesus' Execution.

We live in an unprecedented era where the sheer volume, constant availability, and private nature of online content are reshaping how we think and who we are. Today, Pastor Tom explores how the digital age has trained us to swap deep thought for shallow scrolling, and biblical truth for the opinions of the culture. Friend, does the digital age dominate your life, or does the Lord Jesus Christ and His Word rule your heart? Join Tom Pennington as he explains from Scripture the Temptations of the Digital Age.

The book of James was written to scattered Jewish believers who needed encouragement to live faithfully amid life’s challenges. In James 2:1–13, James focuses on a vital aspect of that life: that for the follower of Christ, mercy must triumph over judgment, leaving no room for prejudice in the church. Friend, as you examine your own heart today, is your love for others dictated by the glory of Christ, or are you still measuring people by the superficial standards of the world? Join Tom Pennington from James 2 as helps us identify the dangers of Pride and Prejudice.

In Ephesians 1, the apostle Paul models how to pray for spiritual growth in Christ. The Bible teaches that genuine faith in the Lord Jesus should move us to pray that all Christians grasp the hope, riches, and power that are already theirs in Christ. Paul reminds those first-century Christians and us as believers today that even those who have everything still need our prayers. Join Tom Pennington as he helps us understand the need of Praying for the Person Who Has Everything.

The Bible teaches that all people are bound by sin and unable to rescue themselves from its power and consequences. Therefore, all people are in desperate need of redemption. In Ephesians 1, the apostle Paul deals with the solution to our sin problem by explaining God’s eternal plan of salvation. And while doing so, he focuses on the work of Jesus Christ, who entered human history to redeem a people—purchasing our freedom, forgiving our sins, and releasing us from the bondage we could never escape on our own.

Christians often ask: if we're children of God, why do we still suffer? In this series from Pastor Tom, he explains from Scripture how we live in a decaying universe marked by cosmic catastrophes, natural disasters, and personal trials. And then he highlights from Romans 8 that the sufferings of this present time cannot be compared with the glory that awaits us. While God never promises exemption from life's troubles—even His own Son, Jesus Christ faced hardship and death—He has destined believers for something far greater. Join Tom Pennington as he explains from Romans 8 that Christians are Destined for Glory!.
