PASTOR'S PEN
But having the same spirit of faith, according to what is written, “I believed, therefore I spoke,” we also believe, therefore we also speak,

Psalms
When He killed them, then they sought Him, and returned and sought earnestly for God; And they remembered that God was their rock, and the Most High God their Redeemer. Psalm 78:34-35 Some think that David wrote all of the Psalms. David is credited with writing 73 of the 150 psalms, about half of the Book of Psalms. It’s possible that David wrote more psalms without titles, but since the inspired text doesn’t name him for those, we can only be sure about the 73. Psalm 78 was

Charter Day: We Will Remember!
I shall remember the deeds of Yah; Surely I will remember Your wonders of old. I will meditate on all Your work and muse on Your deeds. Psalm 77:11-12 On September 2, 2006, the GHBC Charter was signed by 21 people (10 families). Of those 21, 9 original charter members remain: Betsy Adkins, Austin Cox, Tom and Penni Cox, Crystal Hix, Steve and Sheila Worley, and Mark and Cathy Wells. As we remember what God has done over the past 19 years, let us rejoice and celebrate what has

Even Judas Preached
And they went out and preached that men should repent. And they were casting out many demons and were anointing with oil many sick people and healing them. Mark 6:12-13 Years ago, I heard John MacArthur say, “The greatest danger to the church is not the world, it’s not the government, it’s not the occult. The greatest danger to the church is the false teacher who stands in the pulpit.” False teachers can blend in very well. In the Gospel of Mark, Jesus sent out the 12 (Judas

If You Know Him, You'll Show Him
And by this we know that we have come to know Him, if we keep His commandments. 1 John 2:3 Have you ever wondered how you can know if you are saved? There are many people in the world today who have a false sense of salvation. They may think that because they prayed and invited Jesus into their hearts as children, they are Christians. Some will point to their baptism as evidence of their salvation. Years ago, a woman was talking to one of our pastors about her son, with whom

A Lifelong Walk with Christ
For I am confident of this very thing, that He who began a good work in you will perfect it until the day of Christ Jesus. Philippians 1:6 Some teach today that a true Christian will never sin after they become a believer. The hyper-grace heretical teachers teach this. In John’s first epistle, he destroys this heretical teaching with one sentence, “If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us.“ (1John 1:8) It is true that when an individual b

Sow the Seed, Trust the Lord
The soil produces crops by itself; first the blade, then the head, then the mature grain in the head. Mark 4:28 There’s a deep peace that comes from knowing God is in control of everything—even our salvation—and that peace is a gift He gives to all who believe. In the Gospel of Mark 4:26-29 we find the parable of the Seed Growing. Jesus tells us that the farmer throws out the seed and then goes on with life, sleeping, waking up, and doing his daily routine. He has no idea how

A Worthy Life!
Only live your lives in a manner worthy of the gospel of Christ, Philippians 1:27 Many have wondered what the meaning of life is. Viktor E. Frankl (1905–1997) was an Austrian neurologist, psychiatrist, Holocaust survivor, and the founder of logotherapy, a form of existential psychotherapy centered on the search for meaning in life. He wrote, “Life is never made unbearable by circumstances, but only by lack of meaning and purpose.” When one becomes a Christian, one’s life’s me

We Are Dust
By the sweat of your face you shall eat bread, till you return to the ground, for out of it you were taken; for you are dust, and to dust you shall return. Genesis 3:19 Everyone born of women will return to dust unless the Lord returns. On July 14, 2025, Dr. John Macarthur left this world behind to be with our Lord forever. There has been no other man that I have met who has had a greater impact on my life than Dr. John MacArthur. Many of us have been blessed by his faithful

Baby Food
I gave you milk to drink, not solid food, for you were not yet able to receive it. Indeed, even now you are still not able, for you are still fleshly. For since there is jealousy and strife among you, are you not fleshly, and are you not walking like mere men? 1 Corinthians 3:2-3 Have you ever wondered why you are not growing and maturing in your faith? Paul addresses the church in Corinth about their lack of spiritual growth. Paul says he had to treat th
