Hospitality was an important part of life in both the Old and New Testaments. Paul encouraged the Church to be “given to hospitality.” But what does that look like, and how are we to practice it today?

The world remains under Satan’s influence, shaping human nature in subtle ways, so the real battle takes place in the heart and mind against the attitudes listed in 2 Timothy 3. Because selfishness drives much of sin, we must stay vigilant and pursue true inward transformation so our faith reflects God’s character rather than mere outward form.

Forgetting and Waiting

April 18, 2026

Following the Passover and Days of Unleavened Bread, and the numerous miracles of their deliverance by God, Israel very quickly began to forget God. In studying the story of Israel's relationship with God, we see a mirror of our own lives. There is an inverse relationship between waiting on God and forgetting Him.

Bible Study: Song of Solomon - Festival Scroll for Passover

Bentonville / Van Buren, Arkansas
Given by Tom Clark
April 11, 2026

It is a poetic book we don’t look at very often. It is a love story between Solomon and a young Shulamite girl who is never named. Rabbinical scholars decided to place this as the scroll to be read during Passover and UB because of the tender care and love the book describes. They recognized that as symbolic of the t...

Called, Chosen, and Faithful

We are called, which means the draw of God’s dynamic power. We have to respond, but it is the Father who then does the choosing, to put us into the category of the elect of God. And finally, we must live that way the rest of our days, being called, choses and faithful to the end.

Putting Sin to Death

We are told to put to death the elements of our carnal human minds and character. But how do we do that? We must really, really want to overcome, and then replace sinful thoughts and actions with things that are righteous and godly.

Given by Randy Salyer

In the book of Acts, we see that breaking bread—sharing a meal, was an important practice in the first-century church. This sermon explores the implications and symbolism that this practice has for peace, security, fellowship, prophecy, and the covenant.

Do You Know God?

This sermon, given during the Days of Unleavened Bread, is a companion to the first, “Does God Know You?” Both messages are intended to aid in the examination of our relationship with God.

A High Hand and Standing Still

Bentonville / Van Buren, Arkansas
Given by Randy Salyer
April 2, 2026

Standing at the edge of peril on the shores of the Red Sea, with no visible way to escape and Pharaoh’s armies closing in, the children of Israel forgot God’s miracles and began to buckle until Moses commanded them, “Stand still and see the salvation of the Lord.” Does this instruction hold true for modern Christians? This sermon, given on the ...

Is Remembering Enough?

Bentonville / Van Buren, Arkansas
Given by Tom Clark
April 2, 2026

Israel remembered what God had done for them releasing them from slavery in Egypt. But remembering alone wasn’t enough, because they didn’t place the same value on God’s instructions that He did. We need to make sure we remember all God has done for us, but also learn to put the same value on obedience that He does.
