In this message, we explore one of the most well known verses in the Bible, John 3:16, and discover how God's love is meant to be more than just understood intellectually. It's meant to be received, lived out, and experienced personally.Too many people know about God's love but have never truly allowed it to shape their identity, heal their wounds, or transform their lives. This sermon walks through what it looks like to move from information to transformation, from simply knowing that “God so loved the world” to actually experiencing that love in our daily lives.If you’ve ever struggled to feel God’s love or wondered how to respond to it, this message is for you.SCRIPTURE REFERENCES:John 3:16----CONNECT WITH US:Online: https://www.reachthegrove.com/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/reachthegrove/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/reachthegrove/Give: https://www.reachthegrove.com/give/----#reachthegrove #jesus #onlinechurch #faith #bible #believe #belong #cross #inspiration #christian #churchonline #truth #knowledge #trust #gospel #expository #preach #preaching #holyspirit #worship #praise #discipleship #sermon #gospelofjohn

Have you ever longed to hear from God but felt like His voice was distant? In Acts 10:1-8, we meet Cornelius, a man who was positioned to hear from the Lord. Though he was devout, prayerful, and generous, he still needed a divine encounter to truly know Christ.In this message, we explore three key ways to position our hearts to hear from God:1. Hunger for God – Are we truly seeking Him daily?2. Fear God – Do we approach Him with reverence and awe?3. Obey God Immediately – When He speaks, do we respond without hesitation?God is always drawing His people to Himself. The question is, are we ready to listen and respond? Join us as we learn how to tune into God’s voice, align our hearts with His will, and step out in faith.SCRIPTURE REFERENCES:Acts 10:1-8----CONNECT WITH US:Online: https://www.reachthegrove.com/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/reachthegrove/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/reachthegrove/Give: https://www.reachthegrove.com/give/----#reachthegrove #jesus #onlinechurch #faith #bible #believe #belong #cross #inspiration #christian #churchonline #truth #knowledge #trust #gospel #expository #preach #preaching #holyspirit #worship #praise #discipleship #sermon #bookofacts

The Gospel is never stagnant. It moves, transforms, and breathes life into what was once dead. In Acts 9:32-43, we witness three powerful pictures of the Gospel at work: conquering sin and death, advancing forward, and breaking down barriers.

We live in a world desperate for hope ... ... lost, broken, and in need of a Savior. In Matthew 9:35-38, Jesus gives us a clear call: the harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few. The urgency of the gospel is real, and as believers, we must step into the mission field God has placed before us.In this sermon, Pastor Roland unpacks three essential truths:1. Follow Jesus' Pattern – Go, proclaim, and give. Jesus engaged the lost with both truth and love.2. Cultivate Compassion – Truly see the world as Jesus sees it—harassed and helpless, in need of a Shepherd.3. Step into the Harvest – The time is now. Will you be a laborer for the Kingdom?SCRIPTURE REFERENCES:Matthew 9:35-38----CONNECT WITH US:Online: https://www.reachthegrove.com/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/reachthegrove/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/reachthegrove/Give: https://www.reachthegrove.com/give/----#reachthegrove #jesus #onlinechurch #faith #bible #believe #belong #cross #inspiration #christian #churchonline #truth #knowledge #trust #gospel #expository #preach #preaching #holyspirit #worship #praise #discipleship #sermon #evangelism

One day, Jesus Christ will return, and it will be the greatest reunion of all time - certain, hope-filled, and glorious. But what happens when He comes? What about those who have died in Christ? How should we live in anticipation of that day? In this sermon from 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18, we explore three powerful truths about Christ’s return:1. It is certain – His coming is not a possibility but a promise.2. It brings hope – We do not grieve as those without hope because Jesus conquered death.3. It is a joyous reunion – Believers will be with the Lord forever!Paul’s words encourage us to live ready, walk in hope, and boldly share the gospel as we await our King’s return.SCRIPTURE REFERENCES:1 Thessalonians 4:13-18, Revelation 21:1-4----CONNECT WITH US:Online: https://www.reachthegrove.com/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/reachthegrove/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/reachthegrove/Give: https://www.reachthegrove.com/give/----#reachthegrove #jesus #onlinechurch #faith #bible #believe #belong #cross #inspiration #christian #churchonline #truth #knowledge #trust #gospel #expository #preach #preaching #holyspirit #worship #praise #discipleship #christsreturn #eschatology

In a world filled with confusion and deception, how can we stand firm in truth? In this sermon from 1 John 2:18-27, we explore the biblical warnings about the Antichrist, the spirit of deception at work today, and the unshakable victory we have in Christ. Scripture warns us that deception is coming, but we don’t have to be deceived. Jesus reigns, the enemy is doomed, and we are called to stand on the unshakable truth of God’s Word.SCRIPTURE REFERENCES:1 John 2:18-27, 2 Thessalonians 2:1-8----CONNECT WITH US:Online: https://www.reachthegrove.com/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/reachthegrove/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/reachthegrove/Give: https://www.reachthegrove.com/give/----#reachthegrove #jesus #onlinechurch #faith #bible #believe #belong #cross #inspiration #christian #churchonline #truth #knowledge #trust #gospel #expository #preach #preaching #holyspirit #worship #praise #discipleship #christsreturn #eschatology

The world is obsessed with predicting the future, yet uncertainty remains. In Matthew 24, Jesus’ disciples asked about the signs of the end times—not to satisfy curiosity, but to understand how to live ready. In this message, we unpack three key realities Jesus warns about:1. False Messiahs Will Come – Deception will be rampant, but knowing the true Christ keeps us from being led astray.2. Hardships & Challenges Will Come – Persecution, wars, and trials will test our faith, but true believers will endure.3. The Gospel Will Be Proclaimed – Despite chaos, the good news of Jesus will reach the nations before His return.The question is: Are you living ready? Let’s be a people who stand firm, eyes fixed on Jesus, proclaiming His name until He returns.SCRIPTURE REFERENCES:Matthew 24:3-14----CONNECT WITH US:Online: https://www.reachthegrove.com/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/reachthegrove/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/reachthegrove/Give: https://www.reachthegrove.com/give/----#reachthegrove #jesus #onlinechurch #faith #bible #believe #belong #cross #inspiration #christian #churchonline #truth #knowledge #trust #gospel #expository #preach #preaching #holyspirit #worship #praise #discipleship #christsreturn #eschatology
