  • The Hound of Heaven

    The Hound of Heaven
    Apr 19 2026
    In Jonah 1:3-4, two words change everything: "but Jonah" and "but the Lord." This sermon traces the anatomy of sophisticated spiritual rebellion and the anatomy of a pursuing grace that will not let God's people go, pressing on the quiet lines we all draw in our hearts. The greater Jonah is still calling people by name, and this message will leave you with one invitation ringing in your ears: Rise, clasp My hand, and come.

  • Mormonism & Christianity: What's the Difference?

    Mormonism & Christianity: What's the Difference?
    Apr 17 2026
    Evangelical Christians and Latter-day Saints use the exact same vocabulary, words like God, Jesus, grace, and salvation, but mean something startlingly and profoundly different by every single one of them. This episode cuts beneath the shared language to reveal two completely irreconcilable theological universes, showing that the differences are not minor variations on the same theme but a fundamental disagreement about the true God, the true Jesus, and the true gospel. If you have ever wondered why conversations with LDS friends and neighbors seem to talk past each other, or if you simply want to understand what Mormonism actually teaches compared to the biblical gospel, this is the conversation you need to hear. The stakes could not be higher, because getting these three things right is not a matter of denominational preference but of eternal life itself.

  • Eastern Orthodoxy & Evangelical Christianity: What's the Difference?

    Eastern Orthodoxy & Evangelical Christianity: What's the Difference?
    Apr 17 2026
    Two ancient Christian traditions, separated by a thousand years of history, a papal decree hurled onto a sacred altar, and a single catastrophic Latin mistranslation, turn out to be asking the same ultimate question every human being faces alone in the dark: am I actually safe? From the incense-filled domes of Constantinople to the freezing bottom of the Mariana Trench, this podcast traces the fault lines between Eastern Orthodoxy and Reformed evangelical Christianity across every battlefield that matters, authority, the nature of God, the mechanics of salvation, and the pastoral weight of assurance. And at the end of it all, one reality stands: the veil was torn from top to bottom, the debt was paid in full, and the only question left is whether you will trust the God who did it.

  • The God Who Sends

    The God Who Sends
    Apr 12 2026
    In this opening sermon of our series on the book of Jonah, we open just two verses -- but those these carry enough theological and pastoral weight to occupy us for an entire morning. At the heart of the text is a God who speaks, who sees, who sends, and whose mercy refuses to stay inside the boundaries we draw for it.

  • Jonah - Introductory Overview

    Jonah - Introductory Overview
    Apr 10 2026
    Before we open the first verse of Jonah together, Pastor Samson walks us through the entire book in this introductory overview, mapping the landscape, naming the themes, and showing why this familiar story is far more searching and far more glorious than most of us have ever realized. At the heart of it is one great theological question that the book itself cannot fully answer, a question that will only find its resolution at the cross of Jesus Christ. Come ready to be found by this book, because before this overview is done, it will already have something to say to you personally.

  • But God

    But God
    Apr 8 2026
    We completed our study of Total Depravity by adding Romans 8:7-8, where Paul says the unregenerate mind is not merely indifferent toward God but actively hostile, unable to submit to his law or please him. Working through Ephesians 2:1-10 we saw the full anatomy of spiritual death, and then the two most glorious words in the Bible interrupted everything: But God. And as Total Depravity ends, Unconditional Election begins, pressing us with the question, does God choose us because we believe, or do we believe because God has chosen us?"

  • Always The Plan

    Always The Plan
    Apr 5 2026
    Before the universe existed, before sin entered the world, before a single prophet spoke a word, God had already planned the cross, and history has been the unfolding of that eternal purpose ever since. In this Easter Sunday sermon, Pastor John Samson walks through the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ, showing that the empty tomb is not the happy ending of a tragic story but the Father's public declaration that the sacrifice was accepted, the debt canceled, and the plan completed. If you have ever wondered whether the resurrection really happened, what it actually means, or whether it has anything to do with your life today, this sermon was preached for you.

    The True Grace of God
    Mar 29 2026
    This is the true grace of God, and it changes everything. In this closing sermon on 1 Peter, Pastor John Samson shows what Peter most wanted his suffering people to remember, and what he most wants us to remember too. Clear gospel, deep grace, and a word for every exile who needs to know they belong.
