“When Jesus talks about how he came to bind the strong man so he can plunder his goods.”
Charles Spurgeon
Babbling fame ever loves to talk of one man or another. Some there be whose glory it trumpets forth, and whose honor it extols above the heavens. Some are her favorites, and their names are carved on marble, and heard in every land, and every clime.…
Read the full text“When Jesus talks about how he came to bind the strong man so he can plunder his goods.”
Pastors Josh, Paul, and Carlos discuss whether "generational curses" are biblical, distinguishing between punitive consequences, generational influences/strongholds, and the Christian's standing in Christ. They also define types of "possession," explain how believers can be oppressed but not owned by demons, and offer pastoral counsel for breaking family patterns through discipleship, prayer, and personal responsibility.
“He who is not with me is against me, and he who does not gather with me scatters.”
Pastor Steve Wilburn preaches a Palm Sunday message reflecting on Jesus’ entry into Jerusalem as a ‘memorable event,’ drawing three main lessons: Jesus wept over a people who would reject him, he zealously cleansed the temple, and he issued a sober warning calling for wholehearted commitment to him. The sermon connects the Palm Sunday celebration to the gospel: Jesus’ sacrificial death and resurrection, forgiveness of sin, and the call to repentance and authentic discipleship.
“Out of the heart the mouth speaks.”
Pastor Kim Owens preaches that believers are 'wineskins' entrusted to steward the Holy Spirit (the 'wine') by managing their words, conduct, and faithfulness. She warns that murmuring, complaining, and reliance on human wisdom shrivel spiritual capacity, while faithful speech of the mysteries of God releases revival and harvest.
“Jesus says Jonah was in the belly of the fish for three days; I'll be in the grave for three days but I'll rise again.”
Pastor Steve Wilburn uses the story of Jonah to explore regrets: how resisting God's call brings consequences, how God uses affliction to awaken us, and how God still offers second chances and a mission to reach the lost. He calls believers to repent, forgive, prioritize God's purposes, and share the gospel with compassion.
“Jesus even said 'Who is my mother and my brother? But those who do the will of the Father.'”
A worship-centered New Year service calling the Generation One community to pursue a fresh work of God in their hearts. Leaders led extended worship, celebrated the ministry's fifth anniversary, taught on faithful stewardship (tithing as the first 10% of increase) and seeking God's kingdom first, then delivered a pastoral call to leave behind former habits, wilderness wandering, and desert dryness so God can make 'roads in the wilderness' and pour 'rivers in the desert.' The message culminated in an altar invitation to receive Jesus, renew commitment, and step into the new season.
