Brookville Baptist ChurchThat You May Know - Exodus 6:26-7:25Who's the boss, applesauce? Who runs the show, buffalo? Who's in command, rubber band? In today's sermon Pastor David answers this very question as we finish up exodus 6 and head into chapter 7. We see that Moses and Aaron begin to lean who is the Captain of their souls, and they repeatedly display this by doing what the LORD commands. We will also encounter Pharaoh's refusal to have the LORD reign over his life, or even recognize Him at all. So, who's steering this ship, potato chip? Have you accepted the authority...

Brookville Baptist ChurchThe Promises of God - Exodus 4:31-6:13In this sermon, Pastor David introduces us to the seven "I Will" statements of Exodus chapter 6, while giving us their context starting in 4:31 and going through 6:13.

Brookville Baptist ChurchA Prayer of Confession - Psalm 51Psalm 51 is a Prayer of Confession that's actually genuine. With all the celebrities, and even celebrity Christians falling into public sin, only to be followed by half-hearted contrition, or none at all, it's necessary to come back to this psalm and experience what godly sorrow looks like. Whereas so many leaders of country's and cults have hideous sin in their lives, David stands out as one of few that actually chart a course to repentance. When a Muslim apologist was faced with having to deal with the pedophilia of Muhammad, he side-stepped and mentioned David's infidelity. But...

In this sermon, Pastor David explains that we might...

In the sermon Pastor David examines various New Testament commands about how we as a church must care for one another in thought, word and deed.1 Corinthians 12:12–27 For just as the body is one and has many members, and all the members of the body, though many, are one body, so it is with Christ. 13 For in on...

We must worship by the Book.

In this sermon Pastor David describes the formal church office of Deacons and why having Deacons is so crucial in the life of the church.1 Timothy 3:8–15 Deacons likewise must be dignified, not double-tongued, not addicted to much wine, not greedy for dishonest gain. 9 They must hold the mystery of the faith with a clear conscience. 10 And let them also be tested first; then let them se...

Brookville Baptist ChurchWho is in Charge of the Church - Matthew 28:19-20, 16-18, Ephesians 5:23Many people have a negative view of authority because it is so often abused, but the answer to abusive authority is not no authority, but good and proper authority. According to the Bible, authority is a good thing. It's a blessing. Godly authority is designed to protect, strengthen and help those under it flourish. In this sermon Pastor David explains that Christ is in charge of the church and He rules it by His Word and through delegated authorities.

Brookville Baptist ChurchStop Criticizing - Matthew 7:1-6Perhaps one of the most misunderstood statements of Jesus is Matthew 7:1 where He says "Judge not". In this sermon Pastor David explains that the command to “Judge not” may initially sound like a blanket prohibition, but the context demonstrates Jesus was forbidding a specific kind of judgment. Jesus was forbidding harsh and hypocritical judgment, while calling for helpful judgment. That is Jesus was actually teaching His followers how to lovingly correct one another with humility.Matthew 7:1–6 “Judge not, that you be not judged. 2 For with the judgment you pronounce you will be judged, and with the measure you use...
