The Value of Hope
If you look around the world today, you might think things rather hopeless. Feelings of anxiety and despair have a tendency to sweep over us like a flood. From wars and rumors of wars, to health issues, to financial difficulty, to relational problems, the world is a place of suffering.
In today’s broadcast, Pastor Winslett shares a message of hope in the midst of suffering from one of the most comforting chapters in the bible: Romans chapter 8.

Yea and Amen
In today’s episode of Words of Grace, we share a recent message from the pulpit of Flint River. Our passage under consideration is the latter part of 2 Corinthians chapter 1, specifically verses 15-22. On the surface, much of this might be random language or pleasantries, but there’s actually a significant point Paul makes here regarding hindered plans and even the words of scorners, but also the fact that there are some promises that cannot ever be broken!

Three Lessons from the Upper Room Discourse
In today’s broadcast, we take a glance into the last sermon Jesus preached before going to the cross, a message we call the Upper Room Discourse. Our focus is three of the major points of the sermon: Peace despite the circumstance (let not your heart be troubled), The Holy Spirit (the Comforter being sent), and a new and great commandment (loving one another).

What’s Your Emphasis?
When your congregation meets, what is your emphasis? That could be a proverbial “can of worms.” In today’s broadcast, Pastor Winslett considers certain American religious phenomenon such as the “seeker sensitive” mentality in light of the Commission of Christ. In short, putting the emphasis on the “feel” of worship or framing worship in a way that targets the unchurched actually violates the Great Commission, which instructs ministers to go, preach, baptize, and teach. Listen for more! Continue reading “What’s Your Emphasis?”
Work, Wealth, and Wisdom
In today’s broadcast, we consider three connected, relevant, but sometimes neglected thoughts: Working, wealth, and wisdom. From the beginning, men were commanded to work (Genesis 3). When one works hard, they may generate wealth (Proverbs 10:4). But what does the bible say of wealth? It discourages us from wanting it (1 Timothy 5)! But if we do generate abundant income, we need wisdom to be able to handle it, wisdom provided by the scriptures.

Prayer Works!
Folks often mock people who pray for others on social media. It’s become a trendy thing to do, mocking “thoughts and prayers” when a tragedy happens. But Paul actually said the Corinthian believers “also helped together by prayer for us” when he and his fellow laborers were in affliction (2 Cor 1:11). So Christian, prayer does actually help others. Join us for today’s broadcast to learn more!

Righteousness and Peace have Kissed
In today’s edition of Words of Grace, we share a message from Pastor Winslett from Psalm 85, a beautiful hymn highlighting themes of captivity, forgiveness, and revival. While it certainly spoke to issues the writer faced in his time, as with many Psalms, the ultimate and final fulfillment is in the redemptive work of the Lord Jesus Christ.

The Temptation
In Matthew 4, Jesus was led of the Spirit into the wilderness for a period of fasting and then a battle with the wicked one, the devil. But unlike us in our moments of temptation, Jesus never once was susceptible to the wiles of the devil and was completely victorious. Join us for this message!

Forces of Darkness
Using Luke’ first recorded miracle of Jesus in Luke chapter 4, Ben Winslett emphasizes Jesus’ power over evil spirits and devils. In this program, we consider topics such as:
- The Reality of forces of darkness in this world.
- Where did evil spirits come from?
- Jesus has power over them, but beyond that they are afraid of Him.
- How Evil spirits might be influencing people today.
- Lastly, what we can do?
