St. Louis, Missouri
Given by Mark Whynaucht
May 30, 2026

Samson was strong enough to tear apart a lion. He was strong enough to defeat armies and carry the gates of a city on his shoulders. Yet he was never strong enough to stand apart from God. Neither are we. The lesson of Samson's life is not that we need greater strength. The lesson is that we need greater dependence on the ...

If we use this time the way God intends, we will not arrive at Pentecost the same. We will arrive stronger. We will arrive clearer. We will arrive more grounded. Because we didn’t just experience redemption…We allowed God to begin the work of transformation.

April 25, 2026

Training wheels are not meant to stay on forever. They’re tools for learning, not crutches for living. During the 40 days after His resurrection Jesus provided some final training to the disciples that would help them transition from students/followers to teachers/leaders in the early church.

God says that before Christ returns, He will restore something — the hearts of fathers and children. Relationships will be healed. Families will be restored.

Given by Mark Whynaucht
April 8, 2026

A time when there will be unity in thought, unity in purpose, and unity in direction. A time when His government will be understood, embraced, and lived.

Striving to have a proper focus is very challenging to every human being. We will see that a proper focus includes 3 main areas.

The Danger of Living a Lie

Given by Mark Whynaucht

“Whoever loves and practices a lie.” That wording is very specific, and it goes beyond just the act of lying. It describes a condition of the heart, a pattern of life, and something that has become accepted rather than resisted.
