Sermon Recap
The birth of Jesus wasn’t a declaration of peace, it was a declaration of war against the works of satan.

The Anticipation of the Messiah - Dr. Brian Keesler
Sermon Recap
Christ is coming again, but the church can’t get so focused on His second-coming that it fails to share the good news of His first. In the sermon, The Anticipation of the Messiah, Dr. Brian Keesler reminds the body of Christ of its duty to share the same thrill of hope that they received when they first heard about the Messiah. One of the ways believers can share the good news of Jesus is by inviting their friends, family, and coworkers to come to church. In a study conducted just last year, eighty-two percent of people polled said they would come to church at Christmas-time. However, only two percent of evangelical Christians are actively inviting any of their acquaintances. As you watch this sermon, prepare for an excitement to evangelize this Christmas and beyond.

Steps of Faith - Fellowship with God - Dr. Brian Keesler
Sermon Recap
God pulled you out of the power of darkness just so He could have fellowship with you. In the third part of the sermon series, Steps of Faith, Dr. Brian Keesler takes a look at the rewards that come from having restored fellowship with God. Since the beginning of the earth, God’s plan was to walk in union with His creation. To restore this connection, God sent His son, Jesus, to bring reconciliation to man through the shedding of His blood. Now that our relationship has been restored, we can also expect Him to take care of our needs. As you watch this sermon, prepare for an increased desire to fellowship with God as you learn more about this life-giving practice.

Steps of Faith - The Reality of the New Creation - Dr. Brian Keesler
Sermon Recap
When we become a Christian, a new birth begins. In part two of the sermon series, Steps of Faith, Dr. Brian Keesler explains the reality of becoming a new creation. The change that takes place within a person who receives salvation may not be visible to the naked eye, but a drastic change takes place in their spirit. At that very moment, the life of God comes in to displace death. To illustrate this concept clearer, Dr. Keesler shares his own testimony of how God took him from a life of anger and resentment to a life of love in Christ. As you listen to this personal testimony, find hope that you can also be transformed into a new creation as you walk with God.

Steps of Faith - Our Redemption in Christ - Dr. Brian Keesler
Sermon Recap
If you are in Christ Jesus, you are redeemed from satan’s influence. In the first part of the sermon series, Steps of Faith, Dr. Brian Keesler explains the elements that are included in our redemption from sin. Once a person receives Jesus into their life, they immediately become redeemed from the enemy—in spirit and in body. This means that satan has no more access to the believer than he does to Jesus. If the devil couldn’t bring sin, sickness, or shame upon Jesus, then he has no right to bring it upon the believer. As you watch this sermon, find freedom knowing that your redemption from the kingdom of darkness is for right now.

God's Faith - Dr. Brian Keesler
Sermon Recap
When you speak the Word, you can have the same confidence in its fruition as God did when He created the heavens and the Earth. In the sermon, God’s Faith, Dr. Brian Keesler delivers a message that is essential for every believer wanting to see God’s promises come to pass in their life. In the account of creation found in Genesis Chapter 1, God spoke everything that He wanted to see. And everything that He spoke was manifested exactly how He confessed it. When God commanded water to come forth, water came forth—not trees or animals. God never second-guessed that what He said would come to pass, and He never had to hope and pray that it would happen. God had complete confidence that everything He said would produce exactly what He wanted. As possessors of the very divine nature of Christ, we can also have this same kind of faith—faith that fully believes that everything we speak in accordance to the Word will come to pass. As you watch this sermon, prepare for doubt to fall away as you remember that you have God’s faith.

The Curse is Reversed - Dr. Brian Keesler
Sermon Recap
If you are in Christ, sickness, disease, and poverty no longer have dominion over you. In the sermon, The Curse is Reversed, Dr. Brian Keesler expounds upon a truth that every believer must grasp—they are no longer under the curse. Because of Jesus’ death on the cross, the effects of the law have been overturned. This means that the negative consequences of disobedience outlined in Deuteronomy 28 are ineffective. Christians are not under the law of sin and death, they are under the law of life through Christ Jesus. The only requirement of the believer is to now walk by the Spirit. If you are lead by the Spirit, then you can boldly confess blessings instead of curses over your life. Instead of calamity coming upon your property, you can confess prosperity. Instead of disease coming upon your body, you can confess complete healing. As you watch this faith-building sermon, prepare to walk in a new level of authority as you are reminded of your position in the finished work of Jesus.

Dealing with Despair - Dr. Brian Keesler
Sermon Recap
No matter what we are up against, God is faithful. In the sermon, Dealing with Despair, Dr. Brian Keesler delivers an uplifting message about what to do when we encounter disappointment, discouragement, and depression. When a believer faces a seemingly insurmountable issue one of the first actions they must take is to run and hide in God’s presence—not run and hide from the problem. Dr. Keesler reminds listeners that some of the greatest outpourings in the Body of Christ came after some of the darkest moments. The church cannot allow overwhelm to overtake its peace because it has a job to do. As long as we are here on this Earth our duty is to expand the Kingdom of God by letting His light shine through us. As you watch this sermon, find strength as you remember that you are victorious in Christ no matter what.

Election Sermon - Dr. Brian Keesler
Sermon Recap
The formation of government is God-ordained and even Jesus spoke out against the political systems of His time. In this election-driven sermon, Dr. Brian Keesler delivers an insightful message about the power that comes from speaking up from the pulpit. The American Revolution didn’t begin with any random historic event, it was sparked by the great awakening that took place in the church. In fact, the number one way that information and culture was created during Colonial America was through the teaching and preaching at God’s Holy Desk. America is once again on the cusp of a revolution, but it will not start until the church encounters a revival in its heart and mind. Don’t miss the opportunity to change the course of history; make your voice heard by voting in the 2020 presidential election.

The Rest of Faith - Dr. Brian Keesler
Sermon Recap
If you can enter in to the rest of God, you can enter in to the blessing and provision of God. In the sermon, The Rest of Faith, Dr. Brian Keesler shares how the believer can enter in to the promises of God by first entering in to the rest of God. Although God has promised this rest for every Christian, not everyone will find it. God will make good on every word He speaks, but we must continually trust and obey everything that He tells us to do. It is only by faith and patience that we will see His promises come to pass. Don’t get stuck in a wilderness of doubt and unbelief, instead relax knowing that God will work to accomplish every good work He began in you.

Justification - God Declared You Righteous - Dr. Brian Keesler
Sermon Recap
God doesn’t move because we’re good, He moves because He’s good. In the sermon, Justification: God Declared You Righteous, Dr. Brian Keesler delivers an enlightening message about the source of our righteousness—Jesus. Our righteousness does not come from what we do, it comes from who God says we are. Since Jesus took our penalty of sin on the cross, we can now plead not-guilty before God. As you watch this sermon, prepare to surrender your need to strive once you see yourself through the finished work of Jesus.

UNFINISHED: Becoming a Disciple - Dr. Brian Keesler
Sermon Recap
The work of our salvation might be finished, but we still have something to do. In Part 3 of the sermon series, UNFINISHED, Dr. Brian Keesler expounds upon another responsibility of the Christian here on earth—becoming a disciple. Becoming a disciple is not something that just happens, it takes action and intentionality. Many believers place the responsibility of their education and advancement in the hands of their teacher, but their growth is completely up to them. A pastor can put out a meal, but it’s up to the individual to eat. As you watch this sermon, prepare to walk away with a better understanding of the true meaning of discipleship and an increased desire to learn.
