Two Special Saints

In Luke’s Gospel, we read of two remarkable older saints, Simeon and Anna, who were blessed to behold the Lord Jesus when He was brought into the temple. Their lives of faith remind us that God honors those who wait upon Him, and that true consolation and redemption are found in Christ alone.

In this broadcast, Pastor Benjamin Winslett shares the story of these two faithful servants and reflects on the lessons they teach us about devotion, hope, and the joy of salvation.

Be Strong! Be Brave!

In this edition of Words of Grace, Benjamin Winslett reflects on the biblical call to “be strong.” We live in a world filled with trials and troubles, and Scripture reminds us again and again that true strength is not found in ourselves, but in the Lord. From the stories of Gideon and Samson, to the encouragements of Hebrews 11, and the command given to Joshua after Moses’ passing, we see that strength comes by faith in God’s power, not human grit alone.

The Blessing of Family

In this episode of Words of Grace, we share Pastor Winslett’s message on The Blessing of Family. From the very beginning, God established marriage as the oldest institution, teaching us through family relationships about His own love and care for His people. Drawing from Genesis, Ephesians, and the Psalms, this sermon reminds us that family is both a precious gift in this life and a glimpse of the greater, perfect family awaiting us in eternity with Christ.

Listen in as we reflect on the joys and struggles of family life, the deeper intent behind marriage, and the promise of our everlasting home with the Lord.

Worship: Types and Motivations | Compelled to Worship, Part 2

In last week’s Words of Grace, we began considering the question: what compels us to worship God? After defining worship from Scripture, we now turn to the ways it is expressed and the motivations behind it.

In this message, Pastor Ben Winslett looks at the types of worship—spontaneous praise, private devotion, and corporate gathering—and then asks what truly drives us to worship. From the finished work of Christ that makes worship acceptable, to the changed heart that longs for God, to life’s providences and the encouragement of others, we see how worship is both enabled and compelled by the grace of God.

Join us as we continue this study on what it means to worship in spirit and in truth. Continue reading “Worship: Types and Motivations | Compelled to Worship, Part 2”

Defining Worship | Compelled to Worship, Part 1

Have you ever stopped and asked yourself what truly compels us to worship God? In this edition of Words of Grace, Pastor Ben Winslett begins a two-part message on the subject of worship.

Drawing from both Old and New Testaments, we explore the rich meaning of worship—bowing before the Lord, serving Him, and revering His name. Scripture shows us that worship is never random or empty ritual, but a heartfelt response to encounters with the living God.

Join us as we look at the biblical foundation of worship and consider what it means to approach God in humility, reverence, and service.

Beautiful In Its Time | Ecclesiastes 3

Life is made up of seasons—some filled with joy, others with sorrow. Ecclesiastes 3 reminds us that every phase, whether it feels like a beginning or an ending, has its place.

In this broadcast, Pastor Ben Winslett takes us through Solomon’s timeless words to show how every chapter of life, even the ones we don’t understand, can hold beauty when viewed through the eyes of faith.

📖 Scripture references: Ecclesiastes 3:1–11, Psalm 139, Colossians 1:16, 2 Chronicles 16:9

A Christ Who Hears

Have you ever felt uncertain about whether God hears your prayers? In this episode of Words of Grace, Pastor Ben Winslett shares a message of deep reassurance from Luke 4, Isaiah 61, Psalm 72, Matthew 8, and Hebrews 4. From the moment Jesus stood in the synagogue and read from Isaiah to the many times He answered cries for help during His earthly ministry, we see a consistent truth: Christ hears and responds to the needs of His people.

Whether you’re struggling, seeking guidance, or simply in need of comfort, this message reminds us that we can always go to Jesus—and He will say, “I will.”

From Ruin to Restoration | Present Evil World, Part 2

In this week’s Words of Grace broadcast, we share the second half of Pastor Winslett’s sermon entitled “Present Evil World.” Picking up in Galatians 1:4, Ben traces the Bible’s sweeping contrast between the world as God originally created it and the world as it now stands—fallen, broken, and filled with sorrow. But through Christ, who gave Himself for our sins according to the will of the Father, we are not only saved from sin and wrath, but from this present evil age itself.

This salvation, planned before the world began and accomplished by the triune God, points us to something far greater: a world to come, where righteousness dwells, death is no more, and God Himself is our comfort and light. Join us as we conclude this sobering yet hope-filled message of gospel assurance.

The Prosperity of the Wicked | Present Evil World, Part 1

In this week’s edition of Words of Grace, we begin a two-part message titled “This Present Evil World.” Drawing from Galatians 1:4, Pastor Ben Winslett explores the painful realities of life in a fallen world—where tragedy, injustice, and sorrow are all too common. Referencing Isaiah 57 and Psalm 73, today’s episode considers why the righteous often perish early while the wicked seem to prosper, and how Scripture helps us make sense of it all.

Though this world is marred by sin, God’s word offers deep comfort: Christ gave Himself to deliver us from this present evil world, according to the will of the Father. Join us for this sobering yet hope-filled message.

A Lesson on Giving | Matthew 6

In today’s Words of Grace broadcast, Pastor Ben Winslett continues our series through the Sermon on the Mount, exploring Jesus’ teaching on giving, or almsgiving, from Matthew chapter 6. Alms, rooted in mercy and compassion, represent benevolent giving to those less fortunate. We’ll discuss the biblical history of giving, from Israel’s tithe structure and care for the poor to Jesus’ specific instruction to give quietly and humbly—without seeking recognition. Join us as we consider both the responsibility and heart behind Christian giving!
