Finding Rest in Christ

In today’s Words of Grace, Ben Winslett turns to Matthew 11 and Christ’s gracious invitation to the weary: “Come unto me… and I will give you rest.” This episode explores the burden of legalism, guilt, and striving—and the true rest found in Jesus’ finished work.

Raised According to the Will of God

In today’s broadcast, we turn to John chapter 6 and consider one of the most comforting truths in all of Scripture: that the resurrection of God’s people is rooted firmly in the will of God Himself. Jesus declares that all whom the Father has given Him will be raised up again at the last day, and that He will lose nothing. What does it mean for your eternal future to rest not in your strength, but in God’s sovereign purpose?

From John 6 to Romans 8 and Ephesians 1, we trace the unbreakable chain of salvation. The elect was foreknown, predestinated, called, justified, and will ultimately be glorified. This message reminds us that the same God who purposed salvation before the foundation of the world will surely complete it in the resurrection, raising His people incorruptible according to His will.

The Suffering Servant Rises

In the conclusion of this special Easter-season message, Ben Winslett returns to Isaiah 53 to consider the very heart of the gospel. Why did Christ suffer? Why was the Servant wounded, bruised, and cut off out of the land of the living?

This message explores the substitutionary sufferings of Jesus Christ, the mystery of the cross, and the triumphant hope of the resurrection foretold in prophecy. Isaiah not only tells us that Christ would die for sinners, he also shows us that the Servant would prolong His days, see the travail of His soul, and be satisfied.

To Whom Is The Arm Of The Lord Revealed?

In this special Easter-season broadcast, Ben Winslett begins a two-part message from Isaiah 53 and Acts 8, focusing on the Ethiopian eunuch’s timeless question: “Of whom speaketh the prophet this?” Who is Isaiah describing in this remarkable prophecy?

In this first part, we consider how Christ is revealed in the Old Testament as the Arm of the Lord—God’s saving power made known in the promised Messiah. This message explores the opening verses of Isaiah 53, the unbelief of man, and the glory of Christ foretold centuries before His coming.

This episode is the first half of last year’s Easter message and sets the stage for next week’s conclusion on the sufferings, atonement, and resurrection victory of Jesus Christ!

An Interrupted Funeral Procession

On today’s episode of Words of Grace, Pastor Winslett takes us to a small Galilean town called Nain in Gospel of Luke chapter 7, where a funeral procession meets the Prince of Life.

A widow, already burdened by the loss of her husband, now follows the bier of her only son. In any  culture, this tragic and heartbreaking. But in that day, this was devastation; her support, her security, her future provision were gone in a moment. But as this procession of death moves forward, it is suddenly interrupted by the Lord Jesus Christ.

In this message, we consider the compassion of Christ, the authority of Christ over death itself, and the hope that only He can give. When Jesus says, “Weep not,” it is not a dismissal of sorrow, but a declaration of power. There is no situation too far gone for Him to overturn.

Lessons from the Seventy

In Luke chapter 10, the Lord appointed seventy disciples and sent them ahead of Him into the places He would soon visit. We don’t know their names, and Scripture is mostly silent about what became of them afterward, but the lessons from their mission are clear and searching.

In this episode of Words of Grace, Benjamin Winslett looks at the Lord’s instructions to these men and what they teach us about gospel labor, the reality of opposition, and the present power of the Kingdom of God. The harvest is still great. Laborers are still few. And while the seventy returned rejoicing in what they were able to do, Jesus pointed them to a far greater joy, that their names were written in heaven.

Join us as we consider these enduring lessons from the seventy in Luke 10:1–20.

What Has The Preeminence, Part 2

In this concluding portion of the message, Pastor Benjamin Winslett continues examining the preeminence of Christ and the place He rightly holds in the hearts and lives of His people. Scripture not only calls us to confess Christ as King, but to live in devoted loyalty to His kingdom above all earthly attachments.

Looking to the example of the apostles who left all to follow Jesus and the solemn warning given to the church at Ephesus, this message presses a searching question upon us: what might we allow to rise in prominence over Christ? With pastoral clarity and biblical conviction, Pastor Winslett urges us to keep our Lord first in affection, allegiance, and devotion.
