“"Having loved his own who were in the world, he loved them to the end."”
The sermon explains Deuteronomy 7's central claim that Israel was chosen by God out of love and shows that the same love explains our existence. Using historical and contemporary examples, the preacher affirms that God's love is the starting point for transformation, not a reward for performance.
“One of the greatest examples of servanthood was taught by Jesus in St. John chapter 13 — 'Verse one' (request to read).”
A teaching on servanthood as the foundational calling for all Christians and church leaders: each believer has a divinely appointed function, gifts differ by grace, and the church flourishes when members serve humbly, support leaders, give cheerfully, and build one another up.
“"You don't realize now what I'm doing, but later you will understand."”
A study of the friendship between David and Jonathan (1 Samuel 20) that highlights loyal, God-centered friendship, Jonathan’s sacrificial support, and David’s patient trust in God while fleeing Saul. The sermon applies their covenantal loyalty to Christian friendships today—calling believers to obedience, prayer, and waiting on the Lord.
“The servant is not greater than his Lord; neither he that is sent greater than he that sent him.”
A teaching on servanthood as the foundational calling for all Christians and church leaders: each believer has a divinely appointed function, gifts differ by grace, and the church flourishes when members serve humbly, support leaders, give cheerfully, and build one another up.
“Jesus predicts a betrayal at the table and references to Judas—'He had a conversation with his disciples... It's a betrayal sitting at this table... Judas is coming.'”
Pastor Reginald W. Sharpe Jr. preaches that true joy is a divine, grace-rooted inner gladness (chara) that endures amid trials. Using 1 Peter and personal illustrations (internet outage, pandemic, loss), he urges believers to protect their joy, rely on assurances like new birth and heavenly inheritance, practice gratitude, and invite others to salvation.
“Christ has come to give us a new commandment to love one another.”
A midweek service focused on fatherhood using the parable of the Prodigal Son to teach about a father's heart: unconditional love and welcome, balanced discipline, provision, role-modelling, communication, and the church's call to celebrate and restore those who return.
“The commandment to love one another — 'as you have loved' — that we are to obey.”
A Sunday service focused on the Great Commission and becoming a healthier church: worship and communion, a reminder to give as worship, then a sermon on Matthew 28 emphasizing the summons to return to Jesus, the declaration that Christ has all authority, and the commission to make disciples—baptize and teach obedience—followed by practical application: discipleship is lifelong, church health depends on loving God and people, expect persecution, rely on the Holy Spirit, and commit to partnership with God in evangelism and local mission.
“Jesus says to his disciples, 'As I have loved you, so now you go and love others.'”
A Live Free podcast episode that opens with church announcements and testimonies, then walks through two main teaching tracks: (1) Matthew 21—Jesus’ triumphal entry, the Good Samaritan connection, and how Christians should engage politics (avoid deifying or denying politics; practical watchouts and discipleship as a 24/7 vocation), and (2) an explanation of the Nephilim (Genesis 6): major interpretive options, problems with extra‑biblical sources like the Book of Enoch, and a pastoral caution against obsessive speculation.
“As the hymn says, make sure that people know that we are Christian by our love, not our intolerance.”
A 4th of July Sunday sermon reflecting on the United States' 250th anniversary, offering a land acknowledgement and scriptural grounding, and urging congregants to practice 'revolutionary compassion'—a disciplined, faith-rooted response that both confronts injustice and builds relationship through hospitality and service.
“In this world, he said, by these all people, we know that you are my disciples. If you have loved for one another.”
A Sunday communion service focused on worship, intercession for children and the church, and a message titled "The Table of the Father" explaining the privileges of dining with God (childship, heirship, joy, healing, forgiveness, answered requests). The preacher led extensive prayers for protection, wisdom, unity, provision, evangelism, leaders, nations, and personal petitions (destiny, mercy, promotion) before administering communion.
“Reference to Peter's predicted denial—'peter is coming he's gonna deny you act like you've never done anything for him'.”
Pastor Reginald W. Sharpe Jr. preaches that true joy is a divine, grace-rooted inner gladness (chara) that endures amid trials. Using 1 Peter and personal illustrations (internet outage, pandemic, loss), he urges believers to protect their joy, rely on assurances like new birth and heavenly inheritance, practice gratitude, and invite others to salvation.
