Psalm 23 reminds us that faith is not about knowing a passage of Scripture, but about knowing the Shepherd. In this sermon by Pastor Snook, we are invited to see God as our personal Shepherd who lovingly cares for His people. Like sheep, we are dependent, vulnerable, and prone to wander, yet the Shepherd provides rest, guidance, and restoration for our souls. He leads us in paths of righteousness and meets our needs with faithful provision.

Every believer faces battles that seem overwhelming — fear, temptation, discouragement, or spiritual opposition. In this message by Pastor Snook, we revisit the familiar account of David and Goliath from 1 Samuel 17 and discover timeless truths about confronting the giants in our lives. While Israel saw only the size and strength of the enemy, David saw the power and faithfulness of God. His courage was not rooted in confidence in himself, but in confidence in the Lord of hosts.

Pastor's sermon explores how giants gain advantage through fear and repetition, how perspective shapes our response to challenges, and why God’s battles must be fought God’s way. David refused Saul’s armor, choosing instead to trust the tools and experiences God had already given him. Remembering past victories strengthened his faith for the present battle.

Ultimately, the victory was the Lord’s. David ran toward the giant, declaring that the battle belonged to God, and the enemy fell. This message challenges believers to stop retreating to the mountainside, step into the valley by faith, and answer David’s question: “Is there not a cause?” When God becomes bigger than the giant, courage rises and faith leads to victory.

A special Christmas sermon by Pastor Brent Snook

At the heart of Christmas lies a message so profound that even those closest to it can miss its true meaning—just as a newspaper editor focused on brothers coming home rather than their historic flight.

Luke chapter 2 reveals that God chose humble shepherds, not political or religious elites, to receive the greatest announcement ever made: the birth of a Savior. T

In his sermon, Pastor Snook unpacks five transformative reasons why the gospel is truly good news. First, it soothes our deepest fears—whether fear of death, disease, loneliness, or the unknown future. Like Simeon, who held baby Jesus and declared he was ready to die in peace, we find that Christ's light overshadows all darkness. Second, the gospel satisfies in ways wealth and fame never can. While millionaires from Rockefeller to Hemingway confessed their misery despite riches, missionaries like C.T. Studd who gave up everything found complete fulfillment, writing 'no reserve, no retreat, no regrets' in his Bible. The remaining three reasons—the gospel's universal scope, its personal application to each individual, and its provision of the perfect Savior—remind us that we don't just need help or education or religion. We need rescue from sin itself, and only Jesus Christ can provide that. This Christmas, we're invited to look beyond the festivities and truly see the One who died for us.
