When putting on armor, you start by protecting the most vulnerable areas. The first piece of armor Paul instructs us to put on in Ephesians 6 is truth. He is telling us that the enemy can easily defeat us if we allow him to replace truth with lies and deception. In this world of misinformation and deceit, we cannot let go of the absolute truth of God’s Word!

We often hear how God used the wealth of prominent men in the Bible; but, did you know that God also used the resources of many women to accomplish His purposes?

In a natural sense, first responders are critical in times of crisis. No matter the danger, they honor their commitment above even their own lives.

Why are we so restless? At a time we are stuck at home, which should be a place of rest, many of us find ourselves unsettled and uneasy. In this time, God is saying to be still—to release that which is preventing us from drawing closer to him—and to have confidence that He is in control. Be still and know He is God!

Although crises may catch people off guard, it does not surprise God. In fact, long ago, knowing that hard times, diseases, famines, and all manner of craziness would come, God gave His people the solution: My people must humble themselves, pray, seek my face and turn from their wicked ways. Still today, God is trying to get our attention, reminding us of His promise to make right all that is wrong if His children would return wholeheartedly to Him. Don’t wait—turn today!

Have you ever put yourselves in the shoes of the women who went to the tomb to anoint Jesus’s body? What boldness they must have had to press on even though they didn’t know how they would move the tombstone, and what surprise must have met them to see that it had already been rolled away! In the same way, as people of faith, we should press towards the challenges in our lives, knowing that God has already made the way for us. We can only walk in that confidence when we remember His promises.
Consider the plight of Barabbas: an insurrectionist and murderer being held in prison, awaiting his execution. What must he have felt when the guards, who he expected to take him away to die, instead told him “you are free to go; another has taken your place”? People of God, we are all Barabbas, deserving of death for our sins against God; but, O, thank God for His grace, sending His sinless Son, Jesus, to die in our place! As we walk this week towards the resurrection, take some time today to meditate on the sacrifice of Jesus.
In challenging and seemingly uncertain times such as these, we need more than ever to be affirmed and reaffirmed in what we believe. God is still in control, and we His people ought prepare ourselves to shine in the midst of these dark times. In this message, Pastor Deena exhorts us to remember who we are and who our God is, knowing that we have nothing to fear.
Now as much as ever, the church has a responsibility to reach the lost. As we begin to see more and more signs of the end times, we as believers must ask ourselves, are we ready? In this message, Pastor Carr takes a look at various believers throughout history and how they fought for the faith in the face of adversity.
With the recent declaration of COVID-19 as a pandemic, many are gripped with fear, scrambling for essentials like toilet paper and disinfecting wipes, and unsure of what may come. As believers, however, we should not be afraid or surprised: long ago, our God told us things would be this way in the last days. When we have confidence that what God says will happen, we can pray according to His will, certain that His power backs up our words. When God speaks, so shall His Word be!
As human beings, we perceive and exist in four dimensions: length, width, height, and time. However, God is not confined to dimensions as we are. He is omnipotent and sovereign, and we will only have success if we trust that He knows more than we do. Yield your will today to the God above dimensions: what He says will come to pass!
As Jesus was preparing to depart from the earth, He promised the disciples that He would send a Helper to be with and guide them. This Helper is the Holy Spirit: the power of God sent to aid us in the work He has called us to. It is important as believers that we understand the function and the work of the Holy Spirit.
As we settle into the new year and the new decade, God is calling for His people to cultivate an active faith, believing that He can and will move in our lives to draw others to Himself. It is time to receive some of what you have been believing God for! If we are to walk in this season of reaping, however, we must remember our complete and utter dependence on God. Without God, we can do nothing, but with Him, we can do all things!

So many things in this world are fighting for our attention. Billboards, social media, video games, emails, people, our circumstances, our needs, and the like are all vying for our focus. If we’re not careful, these things will become our fixation, instead of Jesus. Our relationship with Jesus should not be competing with anything else. We cannot lose our our focus on God, or we will forget our purpose and identity.
When we consider great pillars of faith in the Word like Noah, Abraham, and Sarah, it is often easy to imagine them as different than us: they were born with some great, mysterious piety that us “normal folks” could never attain. However, these men and women were the same as us; all they did was simply obey. Even when they couldn’t see the outcome, they trusted that God’s judgment was better than their own. It is time for the church to return to a lifestyle of blind faith, that we may be a greater witness to the world around us.
Think about the person you trust most in this world, perhaps a spouse, a friend, or a family member. If they told you do something, whether ordinary or extraordinary, wouldn’t you do it, as an expression of your love for that person? You know that they have your best interests at heart and wouldn’t do anything to hurt you. If we have that much faith in humans, who make mistakes, how much more faith should we have in God, who is infallible and all-loving? In this message, Pastor Meredith explains the absolute trust we should strive to have in God.

With the coming of a new decade and a new year, each of us has things that we want to see happen this year. When we consider the Word, many people had to perform an action to prove they were ready to receive what they were believing God for. Today, God is saying show me your faith: show me that you believe I can actually do it. In this message, Minister Jerard explores how we can show God our faith and receive all that He has for our lives.
As we journey through life, we often pick up baggage: past hurts, disappointments, failures, and the like. However, if we are to enter into the new thing God is planning to do, we can’t let those things hold us back. With the coming of the new year and the new decade, let’s take the opportunity to leave that old stuff behind and take with us the love, power, and faith to believe all that God wants to do in us and through us.
One of the greatest systems we have in our society today is belief. Much of what we live by or respond to is what we believe and what we trust. Many churches and denominations are built on various theological debates. Too often, however, we let these debates divide us instead of believing what God said in His Word. Now is the time for the church to demonstrate the power of the Holy Spirit, that we can bring in a greater harvest. Check out this year-ending message from Pastor Carr!
As people, we are drawn to unusual situations. When things don’t happen the normal way, it causes us to pause and think. As we consider the unprecedented events surrounding the birth of Jesus, let us think: why would God go through such extraordinary measures?

What do people see when they see you? When people see us, there should be a light shining from us showing we are different. We want to live in a way that shows the character of God through our good deeds. In this teaching, Pastor Meredith exhorts us to carry ourselves in a way that causes others to say, “let me walk with you, for God is with you!”
In today’s world, it seems like darkness is ever-increasing. In such a dark climate, light should be even more visible. Jesus has called each of us to be the light of the world. If the world is dark around us, we must ask: is my light on?
Our world today is filled with words. Some are helpful and encouraging, while others tear down and destroy. As believers, we must remember that the words that really matter are those from the Word of God. When we spend time in His Word, we will be prepared to face any situation in our lives. In this message, Pastor Carr teaches on the importance of hiding the Word of God in our hearts.

Do we really understand the awesome God that we serve? Throughout Scripture, God is often referred to as the Lord of hosts–the God of armies both natural and supernatural. If we truly knew the power of our God, we would not struggle with the things we struggle with. Enjoy this exhortation from Pastor Deena!
The heart of our Father in heaven is to be in intimate relationship with His children. God doesn’t want anyone to perish, but all to have eternal life with Him. As believers, now that God has brought us into the fold, we work hard to persuade others. In this message, Pastor Meredith exhorts us to bear the message, “come back to God,” doing all we can to save the lost.
Wouldn’t you feel special if you were invited to dinner with someone important? Guess what–the King of all kings, Jesus the Christ, has done just that! In John 21:12, Jesus exhorts us to come and dine with Him, enjoying spiritual closeness and allowing His nature and His desires to become our own. And after we dine with Jesus, our responsibility is to go and tell another of the truth we have found in Him.
In our own way, we each have told others to get out the way. We say this because someone or something is impeding us from getting where we need to go. But if we are the ones in the way? What if God is trying to do something awesome in us and through us, but we won’t let Him take control? In this message, Minister Jerard challenges us to submit to the direction of God, remembering that His will is always best.
Before ascending to heaven, Jesus commissioned His followers to be witnesses—ones who see something and give a testimony—of all that He had done. Still today, God is calling us to tell others of the hope we have found in Jesus. In this message, Pastor Carr challenges us to use our lives to tell others about the goodness of Jesus.
People of God, did you know that God wants to use you? Sometimes we think of historical figures that God used to accomplish His work as superhuman; but, did you know they were ordinary people like us? God has given each person gifts, talents, and experiences, and only you can do what He’s called you to do. Don’t watch from the sidelines–use your life to help somebody else. Enjoy this message from our “Powerful Women” Women’s Service from Minister Kaitana Woods!
What do you spend your time thinking about? In a world where over 2 billion people own smartphones, most of us spend a considerable amount of time online; in fact, we check our phones an average of 150 times per day! Although smartphones themselves are not evil, the enemy is using them to captivate minds, desensitizing us to tragedy, debilitating our creativity, and distracting us from the call of God on our lives. In this teaching, Pastor Meredith brings to light the battle for our minds and how we as Christians can grow and maintain our eternal connection to God in a world that increasingly attaches itself to that which is transitory.

A pastime growing in popularity, an escape room is an activity where participants are locked in a room and must solve clues in order to get out of the room before time runs out. Spiritually, we often walk into our own “escape rooms” and hand over the keys to the enemy. As we try to get out, we search for clues in the world instead of looking to God. In this message, Minister Jerard exhorts us to place our fulfillment and trust in God instead of the temporary pleasures of the world.
We live in a world dominated by the pursuit of dopamine. Whether social media, food, relationships, television, or music, the brains of youth and adults alike are being biologically rewired to pursue fleeting pleasures instead of long-term fulfillment in God. How should the body of Christ respond to this trend? In this teaching, Pastor Deena challenges us to consider our habits and the things we allow to dominate our attention, making sure that we are always ready to show others Christ.
Innocent bystander. We typically use the aforementioned phrase to refer to someone who sees an emergency unfolding, yet does nothing to help. As Christians, what should be our response in these situations? In this series, Pastor Meredith challenges us not to stand and watch while the world heads towards eternal destruction, but to shine the light of God, proclaiming that Jesus Christ is Lord. Check it out!

There are few characters in the Bible who have a reputation worse than Thomas. Thomas is infamously known for declaring that he would not believe that Jesus had risen from the dead unless he saw and placed his hands into the holes in Jesus’s hands and side. But is there perhaps more to the story of Thomas? In this message, Minister Stephen exhorts us to overcome our doubt with faith in God. Thanks for listening!

One of the most dangerous hazards on the road is someone driving while sleep deprived. They are attempting to operate their vehicle as if they were fully alert but can’t because their senses are dulled. In the same way, there are many places in the church today where we are “asleep at the wheel.” God is exhorting us to wake up, for lives are on the line!
Recently at Christian Heritage, God has been speaking to us about coming to Him with a powerful, active faith, knowing that the things we are believing Him for will come to pass. Minister Jerard and Pastor Meredith continue on this theme, exhorting us to “stand up”—to put action behind our faith, expecting that God will move. Today is the day to stand up!

Church, we serve an awesome God! He has forgiven us, blessed us with salvation, protected our families, healed our bodies, provided for us—in fact, any good thing that has ever happened to you is because of He loves you so much! Let’s not get so caught up in what we want God to do that we forget to say, “thank You, Lord,” for what He has already done. Take some time this week to meditate on how much God has blessed you, and be grateful!
People of God, it is time! Those things you’ve been believing for; those prayers you’ve been seeking God about; it is time to activate your faith and believe that those mountains will be moved! Whatever you have on the altar, God is exhorting us to trust Him with a “now faith,” expecting that those things we speak will come to pass! Please hear this exhortation from Pastor Meredith!

In movies, we often see the concept of “a life for a life” arise: the bad guys will only release the hostage in exchange for a sacrifice from the hero. Let us consider this concept spiritually. Jesus Christ literally gave His life in exchange for ours! Now, we must lay down our lives in service of Him. Enjoy this exhortation from Minister Jerard!
As the world transitions away from the Easter season, we as believers must remember that God is holy. We should not bury and resurrect Him again every year around this time. He is not a “man upstairs” or a “greater power,” but the God who spoke the world into existence. We must reverence Him! Enjoy this exhortation from Pastor Carr!
Before Jesus, the people of Israel could only be right with God through the intermediary of a priest and through the blood of animal sacrifice. Now, however, through the blood of Jesus, we can go directly to God, having unhindered relationship with Him. Today, God is exhorting us to come boldly to His throne of grace, not letting anything hold us back. Enjoy this encouraging teaching from Pastor Meredith!

Through the apostle Paul, the Holy Spirit reproved the church at Corinth for devaluing the Lord’s supper. To them, it had become just a ritual, devoid of its true significance. Are we the same today? Jesus instructed the disciples, the purpose of the Lord’s supper is to remember that His body was broken and His own blood poured out for us. Enjoy this exhortation from Pastor Carr!
Near the end of His earthly life, Jesus instructed Peter, James, and John in the Garden of Gethsemane to watch and pray, that they would not enter into temptation. Still today, God is exhorting His people to watch and pray, to be prepared for every situation that may arise. In the face of the enemy’s attacks and temptations, people of God, we must fight for our faith!

In the oft-quoted passage from John 4, Jesus told the Samaritan woman that “God is spirit, and those who worship him must worship in spirit and truth” (John 4:24). What is spirit, why did Jesus emphasize it, and what does it have to do with our world today? Pastor Carr discusses these questions and much more in our most recent teaching, “Spirit, Soul, and Body.”
Recently, we were exhorted by Pastor Carr to, “violently resist the tides of the enemy.” Jesus has given us victory over sin; when we’re tempted, resist, for your life depends on it! Now that we have been forgiven and set free by the blood of Jesus, let’s not turn back to our old sinful ways. Enjoy this exhortation by Pastor Meredith: Go Hoe No Mo’!

In life, sometimes we go through seasons where God will take something away from us that we think we need. Although these experiences often feel uncomfortable and painful, they truly are a display of God’s love toward us. He strips away the dead fruit that inhibits our growth, enabling us to bear good fruit. In this message, Minister Jerard exhorts us to go from being detached from the vine, to attached!
Leading up to this series, Pastor Carr asked us to study the books of James, 1&2 Peter, 1-3 John, and Jude. She also gave us some questions to guide our studies. In this teaching, Pastor Carr guides us through a brief look at these epistles, reminding us that we as the church have a responsibility to carry out. Take a look at the sermon notes for sample responses to the questions!

Like the Olympic sprinter who trains four years for a ten-second race, or the student who studies the entire semester to pass her final exam, if you want to be ready for a moment, you have to prepare for it.

Continuing our brief look at the pastoral epistles, enjoy this exhortation from Minister Jerard, to be ready to shine the light of God in every situation!

We serve an awesome God who has given us so many promises in His Word concerning healing. In the same way that we take medicine when we are sick in the natural, we can also take a healthy dosage of God’s Word to help remind us of the health and fullness of life we have in Christ Jesus. Here is a compilation of some of the healing scriptures in the Word. Our ministry has seen many testimonies of healing after believers have applied their faith to what God has already said in His Word. Whether you listen to it yourself or send it to loved ones who aren’t feeling well, know that “by His stripes we are healed” (Isaiah 53:5).
