I Am the True Vine

April 24, 2022 • Scott Owen • John 15:1–17

In today’s message, our very own Scott Owen (PFBC member and BCP Director) rounds out our “I am” mini-series by focusing our attention on Jesus’ words from John 15, where He says, “I am the true vine.” Scott will walk us through what Jesus meant by this claim and how it revealed the life-giving lifelong tether to Christ. This hope was not just applicable to those soon-to-be “abandoned” disciples, but to anyone facing doubt, fears, loneliness, or trials. Thanks for joining us!

Contend: A Series Through Jude

How do we fight for the faith? In today’s final section of Jude (verses 17-25), we are given four weapons in our fight for the faith. These weapons might surprise you. So, join us as we arm ourselves for battle against the world, the flesh, and the Devil!

Such people, who have become false teachers in the church, seek to corrupt the church with their specific brand of cancerous unbelief and perversion. And Jude is crystal clear – such people will be judged with “eternal fire” (v. 5-7). But who exactly are these “ungodly people”? What is their personality profile? What makes them tick? That’s what this next section in Jude (v. 8-16) is all about…Welcome to “The Gobs Of Goo That Make Up Ungodly People…”

Contend: A Series Through Jude

January 28, 2024 • David Cotner III

As we continue our series through the tiny New Testament letter of Jude, we come now to verses 5-7. This is a notoriously difficult section of Scripture. So, in order to understand these verses, we must make some vital connections from verse 1 all the way down through verse 7. Welcome to “Israelites Destroyed, Angels Chained, & Sodomites Burned, Oh My!” This message is sure to make you think deeply and see clearly. Let’s get to work…
