Chester (Eddie) Passmore Jr. shares a profound word about finding strength from God and His Spirit in the midst of personal weakness.
The well-known verse from Zechariah reminds us:

“Not by might nor by power, but by my Spirit,” says the LORD Almighty.

If you’re in a season of weakness, take a moment to listen, and be encouraged by this message.

James begins chapter five, his closing section, with a warning to the rich and instruction for the church to respond to the injustices of poverty and wealth without integrity. At the center of this discussion is one defining truth: “the Lord’s coming is near.” This marks the thirteenth installment in our verse-by-verse journey through the book of James.

Psalm 8 is a well-known passage of Scripture that raises one of the most profound philosophical questions about humanity: What is man, and why does the God of the universe think of him or care for him? This message reflects on Psalm 8 and the depth of this timeless question.

The well-known verse that says, “If anyone, then, knows the good they ought to do and doesn’t do it, it is sin for them.” is found in James chapter four. However, this verse may carry a deeper meaning than we often assume when we read it at face value, isolated from its context. This message explores the verse within its proper setting as we continue our journey through the book of James, studying it verse by verse.

Dr. Gladstone continues his teaching through these two chapters of Ephesians. Chapter four marks a shift from understanding who the Church is to what the Church must do in light of that identity. The session concludes with a time of Q&A.

Dr. Robert Gladstone teaches through Ephesians chapter three to illustrate the importance of understanding the identity of the Church and the strength that comes through weakness. This is an excellent commentary on these verses and will encourage any believer who has walked through seasons of weakness.

In a modern age where church has often become a spectator event, we must recapture the biblical mandate that “each one” brings something to the gathering. Being used by the Spirit and building up the body is not optional—it is essential. This message is a verse-by-verse exposition of that reality, as found in 1 Corinthians 14.

Insecurity is choking the life and purpose out of believers. This message explores how God sees us and what that means for our role as those who desire to do His will. When we gain His perspective, we can't help but be empowered to do what He has called us to do.

One of the challenging questions in our Christian faith is the issue of judging others. Are we supposed to judge others? Or are we not? If we are, when should we do it, how should we go about it, and by what standard? There are so many questions—and people seem able to find Scripture to support a wide range of answers. This sermon seeks to bring clarity to the confusion surrounding this important topic.
