Who is Your Jesus?
Have you ever wondered who Jesus really is to you, beyond the stories and miracles we've heard? In this sermon, Pastor Troy Ashley dives deep into John chapter 6, exploring the miraculous feeding of the 5,000, a profound moment where Jesus reveals not only His identity but also our misconceptions about Him. The sheer magnitude of this miracle serves as a backdrop for a spiritual challenge, urging us to assess whether we see Jesus as just a provider for our earthly needs or as the transcendent Savior who fulfills our deepest spiritual hunger. Pastor Troy calls out the distractions of modern life—consumerism, earthly desires, and skewed versions of Jesus—and beckons us to a more meaningful relationship with Him. With compassion and urgency, he emphasizes that true faith requires action, repentance, and a commitment to follow Jesus wholeheartedly, rather than seeking a king who caters to our whims.

The Jealousy of the Lord - Numbers 25
In this sermon, Pastor Troy emphasizes that God is a jealous God, underscoring the importance of worshiping Him alone and avoiding idolatry. He draws parallels between the Israelites' historical infidelity to God and the modern Church's tendency to mix secular influences with their faith, ultimately warning against the dangers of compromising God’s sovereignty. Pastor Troy highlights that God's jealousy is rooted in His deep love for His people and serves as a protective measure against spiritual harm. He challenges congregants to examine their lives for idols and to actively remove anything that usurps God's rightful place in their hearts.
