In Luke chapter 3, John the Baptist issues an urgent call to repent—not guilt, not shame, but a real change of heart, mind, and direction that prepares the way for Jesus. They needed to turn around and move in a new destination.
In this sermon, you’ll discover:
• What repentance actually means (and why it’s more than saying “sorry”)
• Why John the Baptist’s blunt message was kindness, not condemnation
• How success, comfort, and self-gratification can still leave us empty
• What it looks like to bear fruit in keeping with repentance today
• Practical ways to prepare the way for Jesus in your own life—and in the lives of others
From a relatable wrong-turn road trip story to reflections on modern examples like Tom Brady and Scottie Scheffler, this message challenges us to ask an honest question: Are we walking the Way of Jesus—or just assuming we’re close?
Bottom Line: There is no forgiveness without repentance—and repentance is an invitation to life.
If you’re longing for deeper purpose, spiritual clarity, or a reset in your walk with God, this message is for you.

Grace. Generosity. Gratitude. What happens when you put your money — and your heart — in God’s hands?
Today we're looking at a life-changing truth from pastor and author Tim Keller: “There can be no significant spiritual growth in your life unless you put your money and your attitude toward money in God’s hands.”
That's super challenging but this sermon will help you see giving not as an obligation but as an overflow of grace and gratitude. Today's scripture, Corinthians 9:8–11, shows how:
• God’s grace motivates us to give
• Our generosity impacts lives for eternity
• Our gratitude turns blessings into worship
This message is part of our TOGETHER Refresh Initiative, where our church family is stepping forward in faith to expand our capacity to reach the Roanoke Valley and beyond with the Gospel.
This isn't about guilt or obligation—it's about freedom, joy, and understanding that everything we have flows from God's generosity. Whether you're new to faith or have been walking with Christ for decades, this message will challenge you to examine your relationship with money and discover the abundant life God designed for generous givers.
