Will You Pray and Participate? | Matthew 28
Guest speaker Brian Garrison of the BBFI Missions Office shows how a church becomes a good steward of the Great Commission through two biblical practices: praying and participating.
Every job comes with a job description. Brian Garrison opens with Psalm 67 and walks the Great Commission through Matthew, Mark, Luke, John and Acts to establish what Christ actually entrusted to His church, then narrows it to two practices anyone can begin: pray for missionaries and for more missionaries, and participate by giving and by going. He closes with Teofilo, the first Peruvian he led to Christ, and a question: who is waiting on you to say yes?

What Are You Waiting For? | Luke 12:35-40
Jesus told His disciples to keep their lamps burning and their loins girded like servants watching for their lord's return. In this message Pastor Steven Pratt draws out three truths about living while we wait: if we know Christ is coming we should be prepared; we must remain faithful no matter how long the wait; and because we do not know when He will return, we must expect Him at any time. Jesus has not given us a date. He has given us a command: "Be ye therefore ready also."
A disciple's heart is revealed by how faithfully it watches for Christ.

The Danger of Hypocrisy (Luke 12:1-3)
In this message from Luke 12:1–3, Pastor Steven begins a new sermon series, “Hidden Spiritual Dangers,” by focusing on Jesus’ warning to “beware… the leaven of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy.” He explains that hypocrisy is a hidden heart danger that can quietly grow, damage a believer’s testimony, and deceive spiritually. Using illustrations like clutter hidden in drawers and mold spreading in a house, he highlights three consequences: hypocrisy spreads like leaven and influences others; hidden hypocrisy will be exposed because nothing covered or concealed will remain secret; and whispered hypocrisy—private words, gossip, and criticism—will one day be made public. He urges the church to reject hidden sin, remember God sees and hears all, repent, and live honestly in the light of God’s truth rather than managing appearances.

If you are searching for clear biblical teaching on the church, this message explains how Jesus Christ loves the church, sanctifies His people, and secures the future of the body of believers.

When Religion Hides Corruption
You can look spiritually clean on the outside while hiding a corrupt heart within, and Jesus directly confronts that kind of religious hypocrisy in Luke 11:37–44. This message exposes the danger of outward religion that masks inward corruption, where performance replaces repentance and appearance replaces genuine transformation.
As you listen, you will be challenged to examine whether your faith is built on what others see or on what God knows. Religious hypocrisy is subtle—it allows you to do right things without loving God, and it can even lead others in the wrong direction while everything appears spiritually sound. Christ does not call you to polish your image, but to surrender your heart.
