In week 3 of our powerful series, FRUIT THAT REMAINS, Elder Milton James challenged us with a sobering truth about generosity.
Throughout Scripture, God reveals Himself as our sustainer, provider, and source. Yet we are often tempted to trust in possessions, cling to comfort, and hold tightly to what God has entrusted to us.
We are confronted with a question every disciple must answer: does God have our heart, or does something else?
Generosity is the fruit of a heart fully surrendered to the Lord. Will our hearts remain postured toward Him?

In this dynamic message, RUN AND TELL THAT, of our powerful series FRUIT THAT REMAINS, Lonnell Williams walks us through John 4, reminding us that evangelism is not optional for disciples.
Jesus sat at a well everyone else avoided and met a woman hiding in shame who needed living water. The town knew enough to whisper about her, but Jesus knew enough to deliver her. He exposed her, not to embarrass her, but to set her free.

She came to the well alone, avoiding people but left as a witness, running back to the very town she once hid from with a simple invitation: “Come see a man.”

We cannot watch people stay thirsty when we know where the water is.

Has our burden for the lost returned, or have we grown comfortable?

In this opening message of our NEW series FRUIT THAT REMAINS, Elder Arik Hayes confronts a culture that bows at the altar of feelings while neglecting the honor due to God.Drawing from Psalm 100:3, Matthew 15:7-9, Malachi 1:6-8, and Jude 1:24, we are reminded that honor is not emotional, it is predetermined. We cannot separate honoring God from honoring His Word. In a generation driven by individualism, disciples must bury honor deep in our souls.
The question remains:Will you honor God, or will you honor your feelings?

n this piercing conclusion to our powerful series, ACTS I & II, Pastor Philip Anthony Mitchell brought a bold word from Acts 2:42-47. The Church was never about size but about faithfulness. A mixed multitude of disciples, rooted in the Word, fighting for true community (koinonia) with glad and generous hearts. Meeting in temples and homes, they cared enough about the lost that the Lord added to their number daily.

This is THE TRUE CHURCH that Christ died to leave with us. As time runs out: Devote yourself. The King is coming.

In continuation of our powerful series, ACTS I & II, Lonnell Williams helps us understand Acts 2:37–41. It reveals what happens when the Word of God penetrates our hearts. Peter preached Christ, and the people were cut to the core. Truth confronted them, exposed them, and demanded a response: “What shall we do?”
