Genesis 8

2008-02-06T08:02:00.000-08:00

Hey everyone. Here is Genesis 8. I am so sorry I haven't put the daily devotions up here very well lately but I will catch up this week and am committed to getting you a video devotion each and everyday. I am really excited about the things God is doing here in our church and I am praying that you are being led closer and closer into His presence this week.

Hey everyone, here is the Men's Day sermon section. I want to give a great big thank you to Ray Williams, Tim Dean, and Ken Gurganus for sharing their testimonies and for opening God's Word with us. You all did a great job and I appreciate all the men being willing to share their gifts here at Everetts Baptist Church.

Genesis 7

2008-02-02T13:26:00.000-08:00

Hey everyone! I hope those of you who have made commitments to start daily devotions have been able to see them through up until now. I can't believe we have a week of them available already. This is Genesis 7 and I hope you enjoy it.

Genesis 6

2008-02-01T08:11:00.000-08:00

Hey everyone. I hope your week is going great and that God is blessing you richly. Here is our devotional for Genesis 6. We see the seriousness of sin in this section of Scripture and we also see God's amazing grace. I hope that you will enjoy it and that God will bless you greatly!

Genesis 5

2008-01-30T11:50:00.000-08:00

Hey everyone! We are continuing our daily devotions by looking at Genesis chapter 5. This section of Scripture is one of those that a lot of people skip over in their bible reading because it is a geneology list. However, it contains some amazing information on the Israelite people and through the life of a man named Enoch we can learn together how to walk more closely with the Lord. I hope you enjoy!

2008-01-29T06:08:00.000-08:00

Here we continue our daily devotions by taking a good look at Genesis 4. We see in this chapter of the bible the first recorded sacrifice to God, the first mention of sin in the bible, the first murder, and the beginnings of pagan civilization. It is my prayer that in viewing this podcast we can learn to bring our very best into the presence of God when we worship. I hope you enjoy!

Genesis 3

2008-01-28T10:45:00.000-08:00

Here is the third part of our daily video devotional series that will take us through every chapter of the bible. We are looking at a pivotal story in the history mankind today and as you read and listen to the story of mankind's first sin I hope you will think about and pray about the sin in your own life. I hope you enjoy!

Here is the first video podcast of our Sunday morning sermons. This sermon is the final message in a series dealing with the Supernatural world and it is called "Heaven". I hope all of you wll enjoy it and we will be putting our messages up each and every week.

Genesis 2

2008-01-23T08:26:00.000-08:00

Here is Genesis 2 in our daily devotional. Today we are looking at how God so graciously and abundantly provided for the needs of humanity. Please take the time to carefully look with me at Genesis 2, pray and thank God for his blessings both large and small, and consider how recognizing how valuable we are to God.

Genesis 1

2008-01-22T11:33:00.000-08:00

This is the first in a series of daily devotions that will take us through each chapter of God's Word. Join Pastor Jason as he reads through the word of God with you and encorages you to not only read the word but to think and pray about it as well. This methodical approach to studying the Scriptures is called leco divina and has been used for centuries to help people really dig deeply into God's Word. Begin this journey through the Scriptures with Genesis 1.

Ist Video Podast

2008-01-16T11:50:00.000-08:00

This video is an introductary video checking out the new ability to have Everetts Baptist Church video teachings on the web. Tonight January 16 2008 we will be having our 1st business meeting of the new year and I believe we are called to live according to God's purpose and vision for our lives and for our church. Proverbs 29:18 says, "Where there is no vision, the people perish!" Everetts Baptist church has this one overwhelming vision which should lead us in everything we do, "We exist to connect people with God, with other believers, with a ministry, and with the lost."

WooHoo the website is up!

2007-12-03T11:30:00.000-08:00

Hey Everetts Baptist Church we got a new website! You can find it at everettsbaptistchurch.com and it has lots of super cool stuff on it including a link to this blog. Let me know what I can do to improve the website and this blog. Peace everybody!

Is This Really Christianity?!!

2007-10-30T10:14:00.000-07:00

This is the first blog I've ever done and the reason I'm taking my simple words to the world via the internet is that I really need to know if I am the only one wrestling with what it means to be a Christian in America. It seems like the abundant life of love, service, and power has been traded for a comfortable and convenient Cultural Christianity. I want to know what other Christians in our country really believe it means to be a disciple of Jesus Christ. For me above all else it means that we are called to love Jesus Christ more passionately and intensely than anything else in our life. Jesus says we must do this if we are to be His disciples in Luke 14 and right after that He says that anyone who wants to be His disciple must take up his cross and follow Him. I may be wrong but it seems Jesus is saying that we must be like dead men and women walking. Why is it that as a young 27 year old Baptist pastor I see that most Christians (including me sometimes!) completely feel as though we can ignore these clear teachings of Christ. Let me know what you others who call yourselves disciples think. Is the cultural niceguyness that defines most Christians what we are really called to be?
