What’s Your Post?

In this episode of Words of Grace, Benjamin Winslett continues a series of messages rooted in repentance by asking a simple but searching question: What is your post? Drawing from Romans chapter 12, this broadcast explores Paul’s call for believers to present themselves as living sacrifices and to serve God according to the grace and gifts He has assigned them.

Repentance, we are reminded, is not mere stopping—it is replacement. God does not leave His people in stasis, but transforms them inwardly and places them into meaningful service within His church. From prophecy and teaching to mercy, giving, and leadership, Romans 12 paints a picture of the church as a body where every member has a God-appointed role.

This message calls listeners away from conformity to the world and toward sober-minded, humble service in Christ’s kingdom, urging us to take our place faithfully, knowing that our salvation is nearer now than when we first believed.

An Example of Great Faith

In this week’s message, we turn to Luke 7 and the remarkable account of a Roman Centurion whose faith caused Jesus Himself to marvel. While the Jewish elders praised the man’s accomplishments and argued for his worthiness, the Centurion felt deeply unworthy—yet fully confident in Christ’s authority. His request was simple: “Just speak the word, and my servant shall be healed.”

In this episode, Pastor Benjamin Winslett explores the contrast between human perceptions of worthiness and the humility that marks true faith. We also consider the Centurion’s unique understanding of Jesus’ power to act “from a distance,” without any physical presence required.

Join us as we study this powerful example of great faith and learn what it teaches us about approaching Christ with humility, dependence, and trust.

The Poor In Spirit

The Sermon on the Mount, Part 1: The Poor in Spirit
In this episode of Words of Grace, Pastor Benjamin Winslett begins a new series on the Sermon on the Mount, considering Jesus’ powerful message from Matthew 5–7. This first lesson focuses on the phrase, “Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.”

What does it mean to be “poor in spirit”? It’s not necessarily about financial status but recognizing our deep need for God. Pastor Winslett explains how true spiritual poverty is marked by humility, a broken heart over sin, and full dependence on Christ for salvation. This isn’t a condition to fear—it’s a blessing! Jesus promises that those who know their need for Him find joy, peace, and a place in His kingdom.

Tune in to discover the richness of this truth and how it applies to your life today.
