Before & After Pentecost Pt. 2

In this sermon, Pastor Frank discusses the significance of the first and second coming of Jesus Christ, focusing on the importance of believers being spiritually ready and watchful. He emphasizes that while Christ has already come to break the power of sin, believers are called to walk out that truth and share the gospel with others (0:44 - 1:51).

Key Themes & Highlights include:

• Fulfillment of Prophecy: Pastor Frank explains that Jesus' first coming, as described in Luke 4:14-21, fulfilled specific Old Testament prophecies, though Jesus intentionally stopped reading before the verses regarding God's judgment, as that pertains to His second coming (6:02 - 9:02).

• The Rapture and Resurrection: Drawing from 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18, Pastor Frank discusses the "catching away" or rapture of the church, emphasizing that the dead in Christ will rise first, followed by believers who are alive and remain. He uses the analogy of a traditional Jewish wedding to illustrate how Christ is preparing a place for His bride, the Church (10:04 - 11:25, 18:08 - 21:08).

• The New Covenant: Referring to Jeremiah 31:31-33, Pastor Frank highlights the transition to the New Covenant, where God writes His law upon the hearts and minds of His people (12:33 - 14:02).

• Call to Readiness: Throughout the message, Pastor Frank repeatedly encourages the congregation to live with anticipation and alertness, warning against deception and urging believers to remain faithful and prepared for Christ's imminent return (2:07 - 3:45, 11:11 - 11:30, 23:31 - 24:05).

Ultimately, Pastor Frank reinforces that those who are saved and filled with the Holy Spirit can find comfort in these promises and should be motivated to share their faith with others.

• Living in Righteousness and Peace (0:46-2:32): Based on Romans 14:17, he emphasizes that the Kingdom of God is characterized by a lifestyle of goodness, peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit, which stems from God rather than our own efforts.

• Worship in Spirit and Truth (3:17-6:00): Citing John 4:23, he stresses the necessity of worshipping God with reverence and awe, rather than allowing ourselves to be distracted or viewing worship as a performance.

• Being Led by the Spirit (2:36-3:14, 15:42-16:00): Referencing Romans 8:14, he encourages the congregation to actively seek the Holy Spirit's guidance every day, shifting from doing things "our way" to "Yahweh’s way."

• The Necessity of the Holy Spirit (9:07-10:43, 23:55-24:30): Pastor Frank notes that while some are believers, they may not have fully experienced the baptism of the Holy Spirit. He uses Acts 4:31 and Acts 8:16-17 to illustrate that the Holy Spirit provides the necessary boldness and power to fulfill our calling and navigate life's challenges.

Call to Action: Pastor Frank concludes by calling for a "wakeup call" for the church (18:02). He encourages listeners to move past a surface-level faith, to "press in" closer to God, and to remain prepared for the day of the Lord by staying under the influence and leadership of the Holy Spirit.

Awaken | May 17th, 2026 | Pastor Frank Holland

In this sermon titled Awaken, Pastor Frank explores the spiritual climate of the United States, calling for a return to godly values and a life of intentional faith. The pastor emphasizes the importance of understanding one's identity in Christ, the power of worship as a weapon in spiritual warfare, and the necessity of staying grounded in the truth of Scripture.

Key Themes and Highlights:

• Spiritual Warfare and Vigilance: Pastor Frank warns against the influence of secularism, deceptive spirits, and cultural trends that conflict with biblical teachings. He emphasizes that the church must remain vigilant and not be deceived by worldly ideologies (0:00 - 1:44, 21:19 - 22:37).

• The Power of Worship: Worship is described as a critical weapon and the first step before entering into spiritual battle. Pastor Frank encourages believers to use praise to invite the presence of God and gain breakthrough (11:46 - 12:17, 29:05 - 29:53).

• Identity and Christ-likeness: The teaching stresses that believers should define their identity through God. The more one pursues Christ-like character, the more empowered they become to fulfill their purpose and represent Him to others (12:24 - 13:03, 17:45 - 18:09).

• The Importance of Prayer and Unity: The message highlights the command to pray for those in authority and to remain unified as a 'remnant' of believers.

Key Themes and Highlights:

• The Power of Sincere Faith (2:24 - 5:35): Drawing from 2 Timothy 1:5, Pastor Linda highlights how Lois and Unice passed down a "sincere" (authentic) faith to Timothy. She encourages mothers to be real and genuine, noting that children can discern fake behavior and that our faith is often the first sermon they ever hear.

• Priorities for Godly Parenting (7:28 - 12:22): Based on the Shema (Deuteronomy 6:4-9), Pastor Linda outlines two fundamental priorities for parents:

  1. Love God yourself: Demonstrate a genuine, personal relationship with God to your children.

  2. Teach your children to love God: Make faith a constant, daily part of your home environment through prayer, scripture, and consistent example.

• Resetting the Family Lineage (16:06 - 19:49): Pastor Linda shares her personal journey of breaking negative cycles from her upbringing to establish a new, godly legacy. She emphasizes that it is never too late to "reset" the bloodline and prioritize serving the Lord in the home.

• Workmen, Watchmen, and Warriors (26:14 - 33:28): Using Psalms 127:1-5, she defines three roles mothers play in their children's lives:

  • Workmen: Building a foundation of faith, not just a physical home.

  • Watchmen: Guarding the household through constant intercession and discernment.

  • Warriors: Preparing children (the "arrows") to be launched into the world, equipped to fulfill their divine purpose.

Closing Encouragement

The sermon concludes with a powerful reminder that nothing is impossible for a mother of faith (Matthew 17:20). Pastor Linda dedicates time to pray for mothers with "prodigal" children, those who have suffered loss, and all who are trusting God to bring their families into His presence (34:10 - 36:47).

Set Free | May 3rd, 2026 | Pastor Frank Holland

Key Themes and Highlights:

• The Power of Declaration and Presence: Pastor Frank stresses that there is authority in speaking God’s Word (0:00-0:23). He encourages believers to seek God's presence daily through prayer and praise, which helps lighten burdens and bring peace (3:02-4:04).

• Divine Enlargement: Based on Isaiah 54:2-3, Pastor Frank highlights the need to "enlarge your house" and "lengthen your cords." He explains that this is a season to prepare for more, break comfort zones, and trust God for growth (14:53-20:09).

• Biblical Examples of Faith:

  • David: Used as an example of overcoming trials and remembering past testimonies of God’s faithfulness to prepare for current battles (12:00-13:36).

  • Deborah and Jael: Referenced from Judges 4, illustrating how God uses those who obey Him to achieve victory, specifically mentioning the "tent peg" as a symbol of the double-portion anointing available this year (30:25-35:10).

• Pure Hearts and Peacemaking: Reflecting on Matthew 5:8-9, Pastor Frank explains that being "pure in heart" means having a single-minded devotion to God, and being a "peacemaker" requires active effort to reconcile others to God (36:52-44:13).

Pressed But Still Blessed | April 26th, 2026 | Pastor Walter Spivey

In this sermon, Pastor Walter explores the theme of being "Pressed but Still Blessed," drawing primarily from 2 Corinthians 4 and 12. He emphasizes that while believers may face intense trials, struggles, and "pressing" circumstances, these moments are not intended to glorify the individual or their hardships, but rather to turn their focus toward Jesus.

Key Themes and Highlights:

• Purpose in Suffering (9:20 - 10:42): Pastor Walter teaches that every trial and hardship has a purpose. Even when the experience feels overwhelming, it is designed to mold the believer into a vessel for God's glory.

• God's Strength in Weakness (11:03 - 14:54): Referencing 2 Corinthians 12:9-10, Pastor Walter explains that God’s grace is sufficient and His power is made perfect in our weaknesses. Boasting in weakness is not about complaining, but about acknowledging that we cannot overcome life's challenges on our own.

• The Process of Transformation (24:41 - 30:30): Using an illustration of orange juice, Pastor Walter explains the difference between the "finished product" we often want and the "process" required to get there. He stresses that we cannot skip the pressing process if we want to be used by God.

• The Power of Perspective (35:12 - 36:51): Pastor Walter encourages the congregation to maintain a Kingdom perspective by considering the sacrifices of others globally and trusting that God is working, even when the season is difficult.

Pastor Walter concludes by urging listeners not to despise the "pressing" in their lives, but to allow God to do the necessary work within them to prepare them for His greater plans.

Planted In Expectation | April 19th, 2026 | Lee Johnson

In this message, Lee Johnson explores the concept of expectancy and how it is rooted in one's paradigm—the lens through which we interpret our experiences and our relationship with God.

Key Themes and Highlights:

• Managing vs. Having No Expectations: Lee argues that we were crafted by an intentional God to have expectations. Rather than having no expectations to avoid disappointment, we should align our expectations with God's character and Word (0:00-3:20).

• The Importance of Abiding: Drawing from John 15, Lee emphasizes that true peace and effectiveness come from abiding in Christ rather than operating out of a religious, task-oriented mindset, similar to the contrast between Mary and Martha (3:53-6:43).

• The Role of Paradigms: Your view of God—what comes into your mind when you think of Him—is the most important thing about you. Lee challenges listeners to shift their paradigm by viewing God through the lens of Jesus, rather than a distant or unpredictable deity (11:51-22:20).

• Faith and Reward: Referencing Hebrews 11:6, the message highlights that we must believe that God is and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him. Faith is not about ignoring life's "giants" (like the report of the spies in the Old Testament), but about understanding that God is the defining factor (34:47-43:54).

Lee encourages listeners to pause, seek the Lord until they hear His voice, and move from a place of disappointment to a life of active, faith-filled partnership with God.

What Comes Next | April 12th, 2026 | Pastor Frank Holland

In this sermon, Pastor Frank Holland explores the 40-day period between the Resurrection and the Ascension, focusing on how Jesus used this time to prepare, commission, and restore His disciples. He emphasizes that Jesus did not return to be celebrated, but to reveal purpose, power, and intimacy.

Key Themes and Highlights:

• Relational Ministry: Pastor Frank highlights that Jesus is not religious but relational (10:26). He appeared to Mary Magdalene and the disciples not to shame them for their shortcomings, but to offer peace and restore their assignments (6:16).

• Restoration of the Disciples: The sermon details Jesus' encounter with Peter (22:33 - 23:45), showing how Jesus restored Peter after his denial by recommissioning him to "feed his sheep" (28:44).

• The Role of Women: Addressing cultural misconceptions, Pastor Frank explains that Jesus used women, such as Mary Magdalene, to be the first messengers of the Resurrection (9:40, 17:14), noting that God grants gifts to all believers regardless of gender (18:04).

• The Great Commission: The message concludes by reminding the congregation that the Ascension was the final act of Jesus' earthly ministry, signaling the start of the believers' assignment (32:36). We are called to "go" and make disciples wherever we are—at home, at work, or in our neighborhoods—empowered by the Holy Spirit (33:53 - 34:50).

Pastor Frank stresses that just as the disciples were called to wait for power from on high (3:00, 33:23), believers today must be obedient to their unique callings and remain ready for Christ's promised return (36:55).

The King is Coming | March 29th, 2026 | Pastor Frank Holland

In this sermon, Pastor Frank Holland explores the significance of Palm Sunday and the triumphal entry of Jesus into Jerusalem. He frames this event not merely as a historical celebration, but as a divinely orchestrated moment of prophetic fulfillment and sacrifice.

Key Themes and Highlights:

• The Significance of Nissan 10: (0:15 - 2:30) Pastor Frank explains that Jesus entered Jerusalem on Nissan 10, the same day Israelites traditionally selected the unblemished lamb for the Passover sacrifice, signifying Jesus as the ultimate sacrificial lamb.

• Humility in Prophecy: (12:20 - 13:30, 18:00 - 19:15) Discussing Zechariah 9:9, the pastor highlights how Jesus entered Jerusalem not on a stallion as a conquering king, but humbly on a donkey's colt, fulfilling ancient prophecy.

• The Meaning of 'Hosanna': (27:10 - 28:00) The term Hosanna is clarified as meaning "Save now," reflecting the people's cry for deliverance, though their understanding of his mission (political vs. spiritual) differed from God's eternal plan.

• God's Power of Deliverance: (30:45 - 34:50) Using Psalms 107, the message emphasizes the importance of calling out to God in times of trouble and, crucially, the power of giving thanks for God's goodness.

Personal Testimony:

• A Lesson in Gratitude: (35:34 - 42:30) Pastor Frank shares a moving personal testimony about his sister's critical illness. He reflects on his transition from "warring" in prayer to simply offering God thanks, which preceded a miraculous improvement in her condition and the removal of her life-support tube.

My Praise Belongs to Him |March 22nd, 2026 | Pastor Walter Spivey Jr.

In this sermon, Pastor Walter Spivey Jr. explores the concept of Tehillah Praise, a spontaneous, spirit-led form of worship that bubbles up from within a believer regardless of their outward circumstances. He emphasizes that true praise is not merely a performance or a reaction to good times, but a constant, intentional choice to honor God.

Key Themes and Highlights:

• Defining Tehillah Praise: This form of praise is described as an "audation" or a new song that is not rehearsed but wells up from the spirit (3:15-4:40). It is a deep, personal connection with God that can occur in private or community settings.

• Praise at All Times: Referencing Psalm 34:1, Pastor Walter teaches that believers should praise God constantly, not just when life is going well (12:47-13:20). He encourages the congregation to move beyond treating worship as transactional—giving praise only when receiving a request—and instead offering praise because God is worthy (18:11-18:45).

• The Power of Praise in Trials: Through the story of Paul and Silas in Acts 16:25-26, the message highlights how singing hymns in the midst of hardship can shake foundations, change atmospheres, and even impact those around us (31:23-38:08).

• Praise as a Living Sacrifice: Pastor Walter urges the congregation to surrender their own agendas, complaints, and self-focus, replacing them with a spirit of gratitude and adoration (22:42-23:13).

Ultimately, the sermon serves as an invitation for believers to allow the Holy Spirit to activate their praise, recognizing that their unique voice of worship is something that God desires to hear at all times.

Divine Reversal | March 15th, 2026 | Pastor Frank Holland

In this sermon, titled "Divine Reversal," Pastor Frank Holland emphasizes the importance of staying watchful in the current spiritual climate, maintaining unity, and understanding one's identity as a child of God to experience breakthroughs.

Key Themes and Highlights:

• The Call to Watchfulness (0:00 - 1:35): Drawing from Revelation 3:3 and Matthew 16:3, Pastor Holland urges believers to discern the times and be spiritually alert, noting that Jesus performed the ultimate "divine reversal" by taking back what Adam gave away.

• Praying for Nations and Leaders (2:31 - 6:35): Pastor Frank stresses the biblical mandate to pray for leaders and the peace of Jerusalem. He highlights the importance of unity in a nation and encourages believers to love all people, including those who are difficult to love.

• The Story of Esther (7:43 - 15:53): Using the book of Esther, specifically Esther 4:14-16, he explains how Esther stepped into her God-given purpose for such a time as this. He teaches that like Esther, believers can petition the King of Kings for favor, even when it feels risky, and that God has a plan to overcome the enemy's plots.

• Divine Favor and Preparation (16:32 - 25:05): Pastor Frank discusses how grace and favor at the set time (Moed) can lead to a turnaround. He shares a personal testimony about receiving travel upgrades to illustrate that we should ask for, expect, and prepare for God's favor in our own lives.

• Identity and Purpose (26:00 - 30:00): The sermon concludes with a focus on knowing your identity as a son or daughter of God (Romans 8:14). He encourages the congregation to move beyond talking about their faith and to be active in their walk, declaring that limitations are not greater than God's supernatural abilities.

Burning Hearts | March 8th, 2026 | Pastor Linda Holland

In this sermon, Pastor Linda Holland speaks on the importance of returning to a state of burning passion for God.

Key Themes and Highlights:

• The Importance of Holiness: Addressing the modern church, she discusses the necessity of exposing hidden sin to foster a pure bride for Christ, emphasizing that transparency leads to victory (3:51-5:44).

• The Road to Emmaus (Luke 24): She explores the story of the two disciples who were so blinded by their despair that they didn't recognize Jesus walking beside them. This serves as a warning against becoming "spiritually dull" or forgetting the promises of scripture (11:03-15:56).

• From Information to Revelation: A major takeaway is the process of moving from mere knowledge of the Bible to true revelation. She explains that it is in the "breaking of the bread" and digesting the Word that our hearts begin to burn with holy affection (19:15-20:58).

• Abiding in His Presence: Pastor Linda concludes by challenging the congregation to become so "homesick" for God’s presence that His abiding love becomes their true home, replacing worry, fear, and anxiety (8:46-10:12).

Strength to Hold the Line | March 1st, 2026 | Pastor Walter Spivey Jr.

In this sermon, Pastor Walter Spivey Jr. addresses believers who may be struggling, feeling like giving up, or facing spiritual exhaustion.

• Spiritual Armor (5:51 - 8:43): Drawing from Ephesians 6:11, the sermon stresses the importance of wearing the full armor of God at all times to withstand the enemy's strategies, rather than taking it off to accommodate worldly pressures.

• Unity and Relationships (8:53 - 12:51): Pastor Walter urges believers to stop being at war with one another. He speaks specifically to spouses about resolving conflicts quickly (not letting the sun go down on wrath) and emphasizes that the church must remain united rather than divided by politics or personal offense.

• Partnering with Christ (13:56 - 16:35): Believers are invited into a koinonia (fellowship and involvement) with Jesus. This partnership is not just about salvation, but about living daily in active relationship with Christ to fulfill the Great Commission.

• Overcoming Temptation (18:29 - 22:42): Referring to 1 Corinthians 10:13, the message reassures the audience that temptation is common and that God always provides a way to endure and stand firm rather than giving in.

• The Call to Stand (28:46 - 37:45): Pastor Walter concludes with a rallying cry for fathers, mothers, and the church at large to "hold the line."

Key Themes and Highlights:

• The Kingdom of God: The kingdom is defined by righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit (0:00-1:40). Pastor Frank notes that we cannot experience true peace or righteousness on our own; it requires Holy Spirit guidance (0:26-2:00).

Pastor Frank uses the examples of Abraham and Rahab to illustrate how faith is made perfect through action (23:41-26:10).

• Living for Others: Pastor Frank challenges believers to look beyond their own needs and view serving others—even when it is an inconvenience—as an opportunity to represent Jesus (16:14-17:25).

The core message encourages the congregation to move beyond the "shallow end" of faith, to trust God in the deep, and to allow the Holy Spirit to empower them to destroy the works of the enemy and live in the freedom that Christ provided (8:08-9:13, 26:50-28:21).

Who Will You Serve Pt. 2 | February 15th, 2026 | Pastor Frank Holland

In this sermon, Pastor Frankexplores the themes of protection, trust, and intimacy with God found in Psalm 91. He emphasizes that dwelling in the "secret place" of the Most High is an intentional, active choice to remain close to God, which serves as a refuge against the challenges and spiritual warfare of daily life.

• God as Refuge and Fortress: (2:16 - 6:41) Pastor Frank identifies four figures of security in God: the secret place, the shadow (covering), the refuge, and the fortress. Trusting God is essential to experiencing this protection.

• Spiritual Warfare: (6:41 - 8:39, 10:55 - 11:47) The message addresses the "snare of the fowler" and "terrors by night." Pastor Frank encourages believers to wear the armor of God continuously, not just during the day, and to use worship and scripture as weapons against anxiety and fear.

• Angelic Protection: (21:19 - 24:19) God assigns angels to protect believers in all their ways, ensuring that even small stumbles (like dashing a foot against a stone) are guarded against.

• A Personal Relationship: (26:00 - 27:49) Pastor Frank highlights four promises from God for those who know His name: He answers when we call, He is with us in trouble, He delivers us, and He honors us.

Conclusion: (27:50 - 31:47) The sermon concludes with the promise of long life and salvation. Pastor Frank reminds the congregation that because they are a "presence-driven" church, they must actively choose to let God guide and empower them in every area of life—physically, emotionally, and financially.

• Trusting God's Protection: Using Psalms 91, the pastor teaches that God is our refuge and fortress (35:54 - 36:18). He shares personal testimonies, including his own healing (44:27 - 45:00) and how his family relied on God's guidance during the COVID-19 pandemic (45:49 - 49:22).

• Standing for Truth: The sermon addresses the "slow erosion" of moral standards in the nation and calls the church to be a "remnant" that continues to pray, declare the Word of God, and stand for righteousness (11:49 - 14:38).

God Travels with Us | February 1st, 2026 | Pastor Walter Spivey Jr.

In this sermon, Pastor Walter explores the theme of "God Travels with Us," drawing from the experiences of Moses in the book of Exodus (33:14-17, 34:5-9). The message focuses on the importance of living a life where God's presence is the priority, rather than relying on our own plans or locations.

Key Themes and Highlights:

• God's Presence as the Priority: Pastor Walter emphasizes that where we go does not matter as much as whether God is with us (15:14-15:45). He warns against trying to get ahead of God, noting that believers should only move when He leads (29:24-30:30).

• Grace and Forgiveness: Drawing from Exodus 34:6-7, Pastor Walter highlights God's character as compassionate, slow to anger, and full of unfailing love (8:16-8:50). He reminds the congregation that even when we fall short, God's mercy covers our sins when we seek Him (25:00-25:46).

• Being God's Prized Possession: The sermon reinforces that every believer is God's "special possession" (16:37-17:00). We are called to live with that identity rather than acting like an accident or following the ways of the world (17:27-17:52).

• Reverence and Obedience: Pastor Walter discusses the need for reverence in the presence of God (19:53-20:12). He uses the example of Moses entering the tent of meeting and the subsequent radiance of his face to illustrate what happens when one truly spends time with God (26:51-27:23).

• Faith Over Familiarity: Pastor Walter encourages the congregation to step out in faith and avoid the temptation of choosing only what is comfortable or familiar (32:30-33:17). He challenges them to invite others to share in this journey, trusting God to order their steps and plant them in the right season (36:02-37:38).
