Harvest Baptist Church

Spending time with Jesus changes everything about you. When you stay close to Him, His life begins to shape your actions, your thoughts, your character, and even your joy.

This message explores how spiritual growth doesn't happen all at once or in the same way for everyone. Whether you're growing like a plant, an investment, or a person, it takes the right environment, steady rhythms, and intentional time with Jesus to really mature.

A lot of people misunderstand baptism or just ignore what the Bible actually says about it. This message clears up the confusion and shows why baptism is a powerful, joy-filled step every believer should take seriously and publicly.

This sermon is a reminder that Jesus isn’t just wise and powerful—He’s our Savior who holds us, cleanses us, and presents us faultless with joy. When we truly grasp who He is and what He’s done, our only response is to give Him all the glory, forever and always.

When false teaching spreads and faith wavers, God calls us to be like spiritual first responders—stepping in with compassion, courage, and discernment. This message is all about how to care for the confused, rescue the deceived, and stay clean ourselves while doing it.

This sermon dives into how our words matter—way more than we think. They reveal what’s really going on in our hearts, shape the people and places around us, and echo all the way into eternity, so let’s make them count by choosing speech that honors God and builds others up.

This sermon uses Jude’s vivid imagery to help us recognize spiritual frauds—people who talk big, chase power or money, and leave spiritual wreckage in their wake. It’s a gut-check for every believer to spot the wolves among us and make sure we’re not slowly becoming one ourselves.

This sermon paints a clear picture of what spiritual apostasy looks like—people who wear a Christian mask but live by their flesh, reject authority, and disrespect what God calls holy. Jude’s warning isn’t subtle: we need eyes wide open and hearts firmly rooted in truth to recognize and resist counterfeit faith with courage and conviction.

This sermon dives into the book of Jude and his urgent warning about false teachers quietly slipping into the church, using three intense biblical examples to show what happens when people reject truth. It’s a wake-up call to speak up, stay grounded, and lovingly stand firm in a world that wants to blur every spiritual line.

This sermon pulls no punches—it tackles the dark reality of how some people in ministry use their role as a mask for lust and abuse, while calling the church to recognize God’s beautiful and protective design for sexuality. It’s a bold call to reject the lies of culture, honor our bodies as temples, and courageously stand for truth in a world obsessed with following the heart instead of guarding it.

This sermon was about stepping up and standing firm in your faith, even when it’s uncomfortable. Jude reminds us that truth matters, maturity requires choosing what’s needed over what’s wanted, and when we do speak up, we better do it with both conviction and compassion.

This sermon kicks off a deep dive into the book of Jude by exploring what it means to be called, sanctified, and preserved by God—starting with the surprising background of Jude himself, Jesus’ own brother. It's a fresh look at identity, purpose, and grace that challenges us to live fully committed lives as joyful, secure servants of Jesus.

This message is all about the risen Jesus—alive forever and holding the keys to death and the grave. It's a powerful reminder that because He’s conquered death, we can live with peace, confidence, and real hope beyond the grave.

Good Friday - This sermon walks through what really happened on the cross—how Jesus became one of us, faced death head-on, and broke the power it held over us. Good Friday isn’t just about sorrow; it’s about a Savior who fought for us, freed us, and now walks with us through everything.

This sermon zooms out to show how even the "average" American is rich by global standards, yet still gets caught in the rat race of more, more, more. In a world drowning in greed, Jesus calls His Church to stand out with joyful, priority-driven generosity rooted in trust—not in wealth, but in God.

This sermon explores the DIY mentality, emphasizing how self-reliance is a positive but often dangerous mindset when taken to extremes. It reminds us that while we can strive to achieve, we ultimately need God's help and support from the Christian community, especially in times of trouble and burnout.

The church isn’t just a place to attend; it’s a family that breaks down walls and builds bridges in a divided world. Through unity, hospitality, and shared mission, we reflect Christ’s love, welcoming everyone—no matter their past, status, or background—into a community that heals and restores.
