Covenant Community Church IndianapolisCovenant Community Church Indianapolis“To Whom Shall We Go?”Scripture Text: John 6:66-69 NIVOur passage today is preceded by a monumental miracle in Jesus’ ministry. John 6 begins, so famously, with the feeding of the Five thousand. After the miracle of feeding, Jesus withdraws from this kind of thing because He knows they have the wrong intentions, mistaken motives when the follow Him. They see Him as their baker and not Savior. Thus, He begins speaking also of things spiritual. He wants them to pay more attention to the life to come than they do to this life. As we consider how we sh...2025-07-1333 minCovenant Community Church IndianapolisCovenant Community Church Indianapolis“Discerning the Voice of God”: Part IIIScripture Text: 1 Kings 19:7-13 NRSV As Pastor Wallace continues our sermon series: “Discerning the Voice of God,” let us be mindful of what Richard Foster noted in his book, that “God speaks to people not because they have special abilities, but because they are willing to listen.” As followers of Christ, our goal is to obey the voice of God, to discern what kind of life He desires for us and heed His commands. As we will see in this text, God’s voice is, at times, a whisper in the storm. Although our story notes that...2025-07-1336 minCovenant Community Church IndianapolisCovenant Community Church Indianapolis“Signs of the Holy Spirit”On Pentecost Sunday, we tend to think of as a celebration of the baptism of the Holy Spirit and the birthday of the New Testament Church. However, it is much more! Theologian, Theodore Hiebert notes that Pentecost is “the church’s charter.” That means it is a definition of what the church is and what the church is to become whether we realize it or not. In today’s message, Pastor Wallace challenges us to think about whether we are a Pentecostal Church – not based on denominational affiliation, but an experience and way of living. The Holy Spirit came upon the c...2025-07-1336 minCovenant Community Church IndianapolisCovenant Community Church Indianapolis“Discerning the Voice of God: Part II”Scripture Text: Acts 16:6-12 NIV The second half of Acts is a recording of how Paul discerned the voice of the Holy Spirit. This is critical to us – how to know when God is speaking. The issue is not what God calls Paul to do but how Paul hears from God. How does God speak to us – guide our footsteps? In today’s message, Pastor Wallace highlights ways the Apostle Paul had to discern the voice of God, particularly when doors close…and when doors open. Paul was “kept,” from going west into Asia, and then prompted...2025-07-1335 minCovenant Community Church IndianapolisCovenant Community Church Indianapolis“Discerning The Voice of God”: Part I  Today, we begin a new sermon series: “Discerning the Voice of God,” with a subtitle: “How to Recognize When God is Speaking.” It is important that we as Christians learn to discern and heed the voice of God. In Richard Foster’s book Celebration of Discipline,” he aptly notes that “God speaks to people not because they have special abilities, but because they are willing to listen.” Thus, in today’s message, Pastor Wallace draws insights from our biblical text in 1 Samuel 3, and highlights what might be hindering you from hearing the voice of God. First, God speaks primarily to those whose hear...2025-07-1340 minCovenant Community Church IndianapolisCovenant Community Church Indianapolis“Seeking God with all Your Heart”Sunday, May 18, 2025 – Covenant Community ChurchScripture Text: Jeremiah 29:10-14 NRSV Jeremiah 29 gives attention to those in exile, those who had been taken away, captured, kidnapped, deported from their homeland in Judah – and carried away to Babylon. A person can find themselves in exile while being geographically at home or at church. Perhaps many of you feel like those ancient Israelites felt. Perhaps you, too, feel like you’re not where you need to be. In today’s message we learn that God sent Jeremiah to remind the people that God planned to restore them – to...2025-05-2434 minCovenant Community Church IndianapolisCovenant Community Church Indianapolis“The Power of An Empty Tomb”Sunday, April 20, 2025 – Covenant Community ChurchHappy Easter! In today’s message we visit Mary Magdalene, the most devoted of Jesus’ followers at His tomb, grieving her catastrophic loss, three days after His horrific death. Her heartache was inconsolable. Death had taken from Mary the most important person in her life; the person she had loved. She thought she would be visiting the place where Jesus’ lifeless body lay at rest. But the wonder, the mystery, the miracle of Easter is that it wasn’t there. The tomb was empty! The Easter story dares us to believe that a dead man...2025-05-0130 minCovenant Community Church IndianapolisCovenant Community Church Indianapolis“A Living Hope”Sunday, April 27, 2025 – Covenant Community ChurchAre you running a hope deficit? Financial pressures. Family drama. Failing health. Political disenfranchisement. Will things get better? The way you imagine your future is crucial. It reveals whether or not you have hope. And it reveals where your hope lies. Misplaced hope isn’t hope at all. Hope is necessary for our well-being. In 1 Peter, we find hope that endures through every trial and can’t be taken away. It’s the hope that lies at the center of Christian faith and life; hope that transforms the way we live today. Our hope...2025-05-0136 minCovenant Community Church IndianapolisCovenant Community Church IndianapolisThe Journey of Stones: Part VI – “Shouting Stones”Sunday, April 13, 2025 – Covenant Community ChurchScripture Text: Luke 19:37-40 NRSVToday is Palm Sunday, which is the beginning of Holy Week, in which we commemorate the last week of the earthly life and ministry of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Today is called Palm Sunday because of the reference in John’s Gospel of the people of Jerusalem welcoming Jesus coming to their city by strewing palm branches on the road in front of His procession. The Gospel of Luke is able to convey to us through this travel narrative a sense of urgency and...2025-04-2529 minCovenant Community Church IndianapolisCovenant Community Church IndianapolisJourney of Stones: Part IV – “Take the Stone Away”In the Gospel of John, we learn that Lazarus was very sick, and his sisters knew that Jesus was his only hope. Therefore, they sent for Him to come and heal their brother. They were desperate. They needed the presence of the One whom they loved and on whom they depended. They expected Him to do what all friends would do: drop everything and run to their aid. We often have expectations that have nothing to do with what God is saying to us or others. We ask the Lord to bless us within our mental framework or within...2025-04-2540 minCovenant Community Church IndianapolisCovenant Community Church IndianapolisJourney of Stones: Part V – “Upon This Rock”Scripture Text: Matthew 16:13-19 NRSVThe world has lots of descriptions of who Jesus Christ was and is. But who do we say He is? This will determine how we deal with life and how we face the future. The question of Jesus was not simply about His identity, it was about their allegiance. Today, we are faced with the same question, and we must ask who ourselves, who will we give our allegiance to. Your greatest confession about Christ should always be your latest confession about Christ. In today’s message, Pastor Wallace warns us...2025-04-2538 minCovenant Community Church IndianapolisCovenant Community Church IndianapolisThe Journey of Stones: Part III – Turning Stones into BreadSunday, March 23, 2025 – Covenant Community Church Scripture Text: Luke 4:1-4 (NRSV)In this world, we face temptation all the time. Whether you are a Christian listening this morning or not you know that temptation is real. You can think of times or circumstances in your life where you have been tempted to do the wrong thing, and you have either done it or resisted it. In today’s message, we will learn how Jesus came out of the wilderness victorious and how we can live a victorious life. Jesus’ temptations and struggles in the wil...2025-03-2640 minCovenant Community Church IndianapolisCovenant Community Church IndianapolisThe Journey of Stones: Part II – “Sticks and Stones”Sunday, March 19, 2025 – Covenant Community Church Scripture Text: Mark 12:1-11 (NRSV)Many of us grew up hearing the overly used adage, “sticks and stones may break my bones,” but words will never hurt me.” But the truth is: words do hurt. Words can break hearts, ruin relationships, deflate confidence and self-esteem, and crush hopes and dreams. In today’s message we find examples and lessons learned from this experience from our text as Pastor Wallace continues our sermon series: “Journey of Stones.” In this passage we find two things: 1). Jesus confronted the accusers (8:1-9) and 2). Jesus confronted the...2025-03-2240 minCovenant Community Church IndianapolisCovenant Community Church IndianapolisThe Journey of Stones: Part I – “The Rejected Stones”Scripture Text: Mark 12: 1-11 (NRSV) As we start our Lenten Sermon Series: The Journey of Stones, this morning we will focus on “The Rejected Stones.” Drawing on the rich imagery of rocks and stones in Scripture, these messages center around the compelling metaphor of stones as representative of our sins. In today’s text Jesus offers a parable that speaks both of the past and of the future. The parable recounts the history of the nation of Israel and then prophesies of the judgment that is coming against them. While the main point of this parable is to anno...2025-03-111h 17Covenant Community Church IndianapolisCovenant Community Church IndianapolisThe Joy of the LORD is Our StrengthScripture Text: Nehemiah 8:9-10 (NRSV)Black History month is a time for us to reclaim the joy and strength of African American people’s identity. It celebrates overcoming grief, tragedy and triumphs through the power of God. One of the greatest intellectuals for the Christian Church in the 20th century aptly noted “if it had not been for the been for the black church, there would probably be no church in this country.” In today’s message Pastor Wallace shares insights from Nehemiah 8:9-10 to better understand the meaning of history as related to God in our Black Hi...2025-03-1139 minCovenant Community Church IndianapolisCovenant Community Church IndianapolisMaking Your Life Count: “Live Life as a Sacrifice of Praise” – Part VScripture Text: Hebrews 13:15-16 (NIV) Today’s message brings us to the end of our sermon series: Making Your Life Count: “Live Life as a Sacrifice of Praise.” Our Christian aspiration, individually and collectively, is to live life as a sacrifice of praise to God. That’s what our sermon text (Hebrews 13:15-16) today is all about. It’s exhorting us to live life as a sacrifice of praise to God and that ought to be an aspiration for us. It ought to be something that we want to do, that we long to do, that...2025-03-0139 minCovenant Community Church IndianapolisCovenant Community Church IndianapolisMaking Your Life Count: “Approaching God in Prayer” – Part IVScripture Text: 1 Thessalonians 5:17 NRSVIn today’s message we draw upon insights from the apostle Paul’s writings about prayer. If you are willing, you, too can walk in the world-changing power of God’s presence as Paul did and make your life count for now and eternity. Paul’s prayers reveal the spiritual strengths and assets you need to act out divine love in all situations. His prayers empower us to fulfill “man’s chief end to glorify God and to enjoy Him forever. Pastor Wallace shares with us the five things Paul teaches us a...2025-03-0140 minCovenant Community Church IndianapolisCovenant Community Church Indianapolis“Abundantly BeyondScripture Text: Ephesians 3:20-21 NASB  We serve an awesome God – in the truest and most literal sense of that word. But we still aren’t to the limit. After that the Apostle Paul reminds us that all that God does in and through us is “according to the power that works within us.” Amazing things are possible not through our power or our abilities but rather through the power of our Almighty God. The main idea of Pastor Wallace’s message today is that the greatest ambition we as a church could ever have is to b...2025-02-1238 minCovenant Community Church IndianapolisCovenant Community Church IndianapolisMake Your Life Count – Part I: “Give Everything Your All”Scripture Text – Colossians 3:23-24 NRSV  Today we are beginning a new sermon series called, “Make Your Life Count!” We all want our lives to count for something. None of us want to get to the end of our lives and say, “what was that all about?” In this series we are going to look at a number of areas of life and then see what the Bible says about how we can make each of these areas count. So, we begin with the topic of work. How do you make your life count in the area...2025-02-1241 minCovenant Community Church IndianapolisCovenant Community Church IndianapolisMake Your Life Count – Part II: “You Gotta Have Heart”Scripture Text: Colossians 3:23-24 NRSV  Today we are returning to an important topic, namely, making your life count through our work. Last week Pastor Wallace shared that whatever you do includes anything you must do, anything you choose to do, anything you are commanded to do by God, and most importantly whatever includes fulfilling your purpose in life. What kind of worker are you? Is your work outside the realm of your faith or is work also something God transforms by the gospel in us? In this message, Pastor Wallace shares insights about ou...2025-02-1237 minCovenant Community Church IndianapolisCovenant Community Church IndianapolisMake Your Life Count Series – Part III: “Approaching God in Prayer”Scripture Text: Psalm 5:1-3 NRSV  Today we come to our third sermon in our message about Making Your Life Count: Approaching God in Prayer.” Everyone prays sometimes; but not everyone prays the same. How can you make prayer an important part of your life that indeed changes your life and the lives of those around you? Pastor Wallace suggests to us that how we approach God matters to Him. He begins with considering two of the assumptions King David used to approach God in his prayer life: 1). God is great enough to answer our...2025-02-1241 minCovenant Community Church IndianapolisCovenant Community Church IndianapolisAdvent Sermon Series - Part IV: The Nunc Dimittis -Song of HopeSunday, December 22, 2024 – Covenant Community Church Today we come to the final song connected to the birth of Jesus in Luke’s gospel. Simeon had been waiting for this day for a long time. God had promised him that he would not die until he saw the Messiah. All the figures who appear on the first pages of Luke’s gospel are waiting. And right at the beginning all those people in some way or another hear the words, “Do not be afraid. I have something good to say to you.” In today’s message, Pastor teaches us that if you h...2025-01-3036 minCovenant Community Church IndianapolisCovenant Community Church IndianapolisAdvent Sermon Series Part I: “The Magnificat”Sunday, December 1, 2024 – Covenant Community ChurchScripture Text: Luke 1:46-55 NRSV Today marks the beginning of the church season known as Advent from the Latin Adventus, meaning coming or arrival. Our Advent sermon series will focus on The Songs of Luke’s Gospel. The long-awaited Messiah is certainly something to sing about. First, we will look at Mary’s Song, otherwise known as The Magnificat. In today’s message, Pastor Wallace teaches us about the significance of Mary’s song for us today where there was darkness then, as now. There was still more waiting to...2025-01-3037 minCovenant Community Church IndianapolisCovenant Community Church IndianapolisAdvent Sermon Series Part II – “The Benedictus”Sunday, December 8, 2024 – Covenant Community ChurchScripture Text” Luke 1:67-79 NRSV As part of our Advent Sermon Series: The Songs of Luke’s Gospel, last week Pastor Wallace focused on Mary’s Song, The Magnificat, which she sung in response to the news that she was to be the mother of Jesus. Today, we will look at the Song of Zechariah. In his song, Zechariah declares to the people that despite the fact that their enemies are oppressing them, God is raising up a savior who will save them! In this message, Pastor Wallace reminds us like Zech...2025-01-3037 minCovenant Community Church IndianapolisCovenant Community Church IndianapolisA Humble Prayer of ThanksgivingScripture Text: Genesis 32:9-10 This week our nation celebrates the holiday of Thanksgiving. Today, our world, our nation, and especially we ourselves are standing at an inflection point, facing a crisis, uncertain what the future will be; languishing between moving forward or backward, between hope and hate, between unity and division. But even at this critical point for Jacob, the son of the patriarch Abraham, he found a moment to lift up his hands in a humble prayer of thanks to God.

God told Habakkuk his responsibility was to live in an uncertain age by faith. Accordingly, we do not live by explanation, but by faith. This is the only way to live, and this message is timely as we are facing dark days of uncertainty and anxiety.

Many are in shock – terrified, confused, and heartbroken. Perhaps it takes “times like these” to shake us out of a fairly comfortable armchair faith in Christ – to get us to take a deep breath – and to lead us to examine more closely the claims and promises Jesus has made. There is only one antidote for our anxiety today and the next 4-8 years – the Word of God.

One of the questions the story about Elijah raises is how do we not only survive but THRIVE? How do we prosper? How do we receive the blessings in life that God wants to give us? When things are going great and when things are not going so great, and you see both in this story.

These people were suffering – they were suffering emotionally, physically, and economically. Although America’s economy is among the strongest in the world; yet many Americans are suffering. Some of the early Christians were thinking about throwing in the towel – just quitting. In times like these, it will take a mature Christian to keep on holding on. A mature Christian is one who is marked by the ability to endure the attacks of a hostile culture a...2024-11-0236 minCovenant Community Church IndianapolisCovenant Community Church IndianapolisHebrews Sermon Series: Part I – “We Are God’s House”Scripture Text: Hebrews 3:1-6 (NRSV)Today, we are launching a new sermon series on the Book of Hebrews. The preacher of the Book of Hebrews is writing to encourage the Christians to not give up or lose their faith during the difficulties they are facing for serving the Lord. The writer reminds them and us that we share in a heavenly calling. Jesus has made you holy and is bringing you to glory partaking in the heavenly calling. This is your destiny.

In Part II of our sermon series on the Book of Hebrews, we will learn another way God helps us to keep our faith to the end: we are reminded about the Word of God. Pastor Wallace takes this opportunity to reflect upon what is said in this passage with a desire to renew and increase our appreciation of the power of God’s Word. He begins by noticing four things the text asserts abou...2024-11-0238 minCovenant Community Church IndianapolisCovenant Community Church IndianapolisHebrews Sermon Series: Part III – “Patience”Scripture Text: Hebrews 10: 32-36 (KJV)In today’s message, Pastor Wallace continues to teach about the writer of Hebrews encouraging us to keep up, not to give up our faith in hard times. Therefore, he reminds us that we have need of patience. Having said that, there are three things Pastor Wallace wants to write upon your heart as we look at this Scripture telling us how to hold on to a promise. First, there is something to remember: we are to remember yesterday’s provisions (vs. 32-34).

However, when you read the biographies of His life in the New Testament you will find that Jesus preferred to ask people questions. Maybe it’s because the right question can open the door to radical transformation. Jesus asks questions that invite pondering, that encourage contemplation, that don’t lend themselves to easy answers.  Over the next few weeks Pastor Wallace will challenge you to examine these life changing questions in the hope that you will grow deeper in your faith and closer to God. In today’s passa...2024-08-2438 minCovenant Community Church IndianapolisCovenant Community Church IndianapolisEndure: Part VI – “The Lord Stood by Me”The verses towards the end of 2 Timothy underscore the reality of life as a disciple of Jesus. Sometimes you can do everything right and still be mistreated – even by those who claim to be Christians. This was the case with Paul as he expresses in today’s passage, 2 Timothy 4:14-18. No one stood in his defense. This deeply wounded Paul. Humanly speaking, he stood alone. There is an epidemic of loneliness in the United States today and we all experience loneliness one time or another. In today’s message, Pastor Wallace teaches on the three distinct causes of loneliness and ex...2024-08-2436 minCovenant Community Church IndianapolisCovenant Community Church IndianapolisEndure: Part V – “Finish Well”Part 5 in our sermon series: “Endure” is “Finish Well,” and the Apostle Paul was the foremost example of one who finished well. The lessons we learn from this aging apostle will enable us to run well today, while encouraging us to finish well tomorrow. First, Paul sees himself as a “drink offering” about to be poured out. The drink offering was a symbolic way of saying, “I gladly give all that I have to the Lord.” In so doing, he is giving Timothy the encouragement to do likewise: give it your all, pour out your best. Second, Paul likens his life and min...2024-08-2440 minCovenant Community Church IndianapolisCovenant Community Church IndianapolisEndure: Part IV – “Continue On” Podcast ScriptIn continuing Part IV of our sermon series: “Endure”, we see that Paul encouraged Timothy, his “son in the ministry,” to keep going. To Continue. In verses 1-7, Pastor Wallace shares with us the things that are needed for Timothy and you to continue on. They are: 1) The Pattern of a Godly Life (vv. 10-11); 2) The Price of a Godly Life (vv. 12-13); 3) The Perseverance of a Godly Life (vv. 14-15); and 4) The Provisions of a Godly Life (vv. 16-17). Simply stated, Timothy had to LIVE IN the Scriptures – live, move, and have his being in the Scripture. And more impor...2024-07-2037 minCovenant Community Church IndianapolisCovenant Community Church IndianapolisEndure: Part III – “Be Strong in the Grace”In today’s message, Paul is telling Timothy to receive strength, to be strengthened. The source of that strength is not in Timothy. He did not tell Timothy “be strong by believing in himself.” He did not say, “be strong for me.” He said: “be strong in the grace.” The source of strength is in Christ Jesus. Pastor Wallace challenges us to think about two critical questions: 1) Why do you need to be strong and 2) How can you be strong for yourself and others? These two questions are answered as Paul gives earthly examples in v. 2-7. There are so many life-s...2024-07-1935 minCovenant Community Church IndianapolisCovenant Community Church IndianapolisEndure: Part II – “Guarding the Good Treasure”In today’s passage, Pastor Wallace teaches about the Apostle Paul’s charge to his son in the ministry, Timothy to spare nothing to protect the gospel message. Though hardship would come, Paul wanted Timothy to continue in those things he had learned. He challenges Timothy and us to endure in the faith, even to the point of death. Clearly, as believers we are in the midst of trying times. Notwithstanding, when we strive to live for Christ, finding hope in difficult times will give us the perseverance to move forward.

The theme of 2 Timothy is faithful endurance to the Lord even amidst difficult circumstances. Although, our circumstances are different in many ways, and yet they are similar as well. Thus, just as Paul encouraged Timothy, we too must press on and continue for the Lord...2024-06-3027 minImmerse Yourself in Captivating Narratives With Full AudiobookImmerse Yourself in Captivating Narratives With Full AudiobookMirelle's Mirror Audiobook by Katherine WallaceListen to this audiobook in full for free onhttps://hotaudiobook.com/freeID: 789489 Title: Mirelle's Mirror Author: Katherine Wallace Narrator: A Full Cast, Carla Greene Format: Unabridged Length: 00:03:58 Language: English Release date: 06-03-24 Publisher: Authors Republic Genres: Kids, Animals & Nature, Fairy Tales & Folklore Summary: Mirelle is beautiful, but her ocean home is a mess.

It is what brings changes and new life. The cross provides us with hope on our journey through life. It and it alone can give us spiritual and eternal life. In today’s message, Pastor Wallace reminds us of what St. Paul told the Corinthians that the Gospel isn’t about the preacher, it’s about the message of the cross of Christ.

Is there something we need to know, is there something we need to respond to, in order for the growth or the spiritual formation in us...2024-04-1833 minCovenant Community Church IndianapolisCovenant Community Church IndianapolisThe Cross Gives Hope to the World: Part I – The Blessing of the CrossThe cross and resurrection of Jesus is the hope of the world.

In this epistle, Paul wanted the saints in Ephesus and us, above all else, to see the far greater spiritual blessings they had, and we have in Christ. Therefore, it is important for us to know how blessed we are in Christ Jesus.

Our Lenten Sermon Series: “Understanding the Grace of God” will help you grow in the grace and knowledge of God. The last two previous messages were on God’s saving grace and enabling grace.

His grace enables us to be who we are meant to be and to do what He wants us to do. This can only occur as we abide in Him. So, Paul writes this second epistle (2 Timothy) to Timothy and says to him, “Be strong in the grace that is found in Christ.” Pastor Wallace teaches us in this sermon that the grace of God does not merely save us (although it does do that), it also continues to enabl...2024-02-2838 minCovenant Community Church IndianapolisCovenant Community Church IndianapolisUnderstanding the Grace of God – Part I: Saving GraceYou can’t understand the Christian life at all unless you understand grace.

You see, that was Delilah’s question. And one of Samson’s problems was that he answered that question. A short story takes place in Gaza, one of the major Philistine cities. Samson leaves Israel and heads to Gaza and finds a prostitute and sleeps with her. Delilah proceeds to press Samson to reveal the “secret of his strength. In today’s  message, Pastor Wallace teaches about knowing the source of your strength. In the text the enemies mistook the symbol of his strength for the source of his strength.

Life in the wilderness is exhausting. For every wilderness there is a promised land; and for every promised land there is a River Jordan that must be crossed. The only way across the river is through the river.

The story of the wise men chronicled in the Gospel of Matthew tells of the Magi long and dangerous travel to see the Christ child. From this morning’s text, Pastor Wallace will show us how to have wisdom in this new year as we look at how the wise men sought Jesus and what they brought Him.

However, God has a better way! In today’s message Pastor Wallace will show you from the Word of God how you can step your way into the new year with success. We will kick off a brand-new, four-part message series called “Winning Steps for the New Year.” This morning we begin with Part 1: “Taking Small Steps.” Sometimes God calls us to tasks greater than anything we could ever accomplish by our own power.

God gave some great signs to people who didn’t eve ask for a sign. In today’s message, Pastor Wallace shares with us the sign God choose to signify His coming to the earth: He choose a baby wrapped in cloths lying in a manger.” God gave the Jews a sign; but they weren’t expecting a baby in a manger. God gave them a sign and they missed it. It was too simple then and for many people it is still to...2023-12-1341 minCovenant Community Church IndianapolisCovenant Community Church IndianapolisMake Room for JesusMost have taken for granted Jesus’ nativity story as commonly related – that when Joseph and Mary arrived in Bethlehem there was no room in an inn, so Mary ended up giving birth to Jesus in a stable. However, a more realistic view of what occurred with Christ’s birth according to custom of the time is that the manger was in a house and not in a stable. As the text says: “there was no guest room available for them.” Today, we struggle to make room for Jesus. The struggle often is the fact that the distractions of life make it ha...2023-12-0733 minCovenant Community Church IndianapolisCovenant Community Church IndianapolisOverflowing with GratitudeIn today’s message, Pastor Wallace shares with us teachings from the Apostle Paul’s letter to the church at Colossae. Colossians 2:6-7 succinctly summarizes the message of this letter. In these two verses, Paul affirms the truth about Christ and exhorts believers to continue to live in Him. Gratitude is the proper response to and result of God’s grace at work in the believer’s life. The good news is that from the moment we accepted Jesus as our Lord and Savior, the Lord began to develop qualities that produce grateful hearts. In our text today, Paul explains...2023-11-2333 minCovenant Community Church IndianapolisCovenant Community Church IndianapolisHow to Be GratefulToday’s message is the final part of our six-part sermon series entitled: “How to Be Grateful.” The great Roman orator, Cicero, called gratitude “the mother of all virtues.” Hence, there is a sense in which if we can learn to be grateful, then we will take a huge step toward being godly as well. In his message, Pastor Wallace borrows insights from Rabbi Haskel Lookstein where he suggests that first of all, there is no Todah without dayeinu. In other words, one does not feel grateful until one feels satisfied. The paradigmatic example of tis is the Biblical matriarch...2023-11-0930 minCovenant Community Church IndianapolisCovenant Community Church IndianapolisHow to Be Strong in the Faith As we continue our sermon series on “How To…,” we are going to study talks about Abraham’s faith. The Bible tells us that it was a strong faith. Would you like to be strong in the faith? In today’s message Pastor Wallace mentions five things that are true about Abraham’s faith that he wants to be true about your faith. First, strong faith is received as a gift of God; secondly, strong faith releases the grace of God; thirdly, strong faith respects the greatness of God; fourthly, strong faith regards the guidance of God; and lastly, s...2023-10-2738 minCovenant Community Church IndianapolisCovenant Community Church IndianapolisHow to Handle StressToday, many Americans are emotionally fatigued, physically drained, and spiritually defeated. And the reason is stress. Well, thank God, there is hope, and hope is on the way, and it is right from the pages of God’s Word in Isaiah 40, verses 28 thru 31. In today’s message, Pastor Wallace teaches us the problem of stress, the provision of God’s sufficiency, and the assurance of His promise. Now, the promise has a provision, and the provision is that you must wait upon the Lord. Thusly, Pastor Wallace shares with us the four things that it means: you must long for Hi...2023-10-1735 minCovenant Community Church IndianapolisCovenant Community Church IndianapolisHow To Work Out Your Own Salvation: Act the Miracle!Greetings and welcome to the third part of our sermon series: “How To…” Today's message is “How to Work Out Your Own Salvation: Act the Miracle!” The “miracle” in view here is the activity of God in producing in our hearts and minds and wills the desire and power to obey His Word. The word “act” has in view what you and I do as a result of the miracle God has already performed in our hearts and minds and wills. To “act the miracle,” therefore, is a call to each of us to be diligent in doing what God has commanded.

You are in the race! There is a race for you to run and God wants you to be like a champion. In today’s message, Pastor Wallace shares with us how to run like a champion. He proffers five things from this passage of Scripture to help you run successfully. They are: 1). There is a purpose to pursue, 2). There is a person to prepare, 3).

For many items, we would not dare dream of trying to assemble the parts without the instructions. Yet may people try to put together their complex designed lives without asking, “Are there any instructions?” As Christians, we believe that there is a divine plan for our lives.

We even get happy about planning our destinations and what we will do when we get there. However, there are those times in life when dreams are deferred, and plans are delayed. The question is how do you handle the “in between times?” In today’s message, Pastor Wallace teaches about how God led the Israelites on a different route than they had intended to go. The experiences of Israel are typical of our experiences. What Israel went through we go through in life. Therefore, the more we learn...2023-09-1935 minCovenant Community Church IndianapolisCovenant Community Church IndianapolisEating at the King’s TableOur text today from 2 Samuel 9 gives an interaction between David and Mephibosheth and the outcome is not what we expect. The story of Mephibosheth is our story because as an enemy of the King he was welcomed to the table. Enemies aren’t welcomed to the table, but we are as Christians. Because of sin we are all enemies of the King, but don’t miss God’s pursuing grace here in this text. In this message, Pastor Wallace reminds us that as God restores and saves us, He takes us from being enemies of the crown to being Childr...2023-09-1928 minCovenant Community Church IndianapolisCovenant Community Church IndianapolisFaith Conquers the WorldIn today’s message, Pastor Wallace shares with us the importance of church membership. In joining church, you make visible your commitment to Christ and His people. The truth of church membership is that every member of the church is called to overcome. Therefore, the way to live experience the victory of faith is to obey God. This is the victory that overcomes the storms of life, failure, setbacks, financial collapse, debilitating illness, heartbreaking loss, and so much more, even our faith. From our text today, you will learn that if you are born again, you will overcome the wo...2023-08-2229 minCovenant Community Church IndianapolisCovenant Community Church IndianapolisCalled to WaitOf all the things God calls us to do in life, none is important, or more difficult, than the call to wait. Maybe the hardest waiting is waiting upon God, particularly when you have taken one of God’s promises to heart. In today’s message, Pastor Wallace instructs in ways to survive the wait by providing insights from the life of David. God promised great things to David, and everything was falling into place for David to become the next king of Israel. That is, everything was falling into place until it fell through the bottom. All o...2023-08-1540 minCold and MissingCold and MissingCold and Missing: Hang LeeIn 1993 Hang Lee was a high school senior looking for a second job to save for college and be able to continue to give money to her parents.

This was the pivotal turning point in their lives. Pastor Wallace shares with us the fact that turning points always resound with the invitation to follow Jesus. Each turning point comes with the opportunity for and the promise of Christ to refashion our lives.

And, when you do, everything suddenly falls into place. Today, Pastor Wallace shares with us the story of four lepers who were sitting outside the gate of the city, and suddenly it dawns on them that they have absolutely nothing to lose! They can’t go inside the city, and they can’t just sit the...2023-07-1839 minCovenant Community Church IndianapolisCovenant Community Church IndianapolisTurning Points in Life – Part III: Making Difficult DecisionsAs we continue with our sermon series “Turning Points in Life,” today we focus on “Making Difficult Decisions.” In this message we find that difficult decisions may require commitment based on love and faith. Life is full of turning points. Those occasions when you stand at the crossroad. Moments when you have to make a decision, and that decision will forever change your trajectory. The story of Ruth is one of the most beautifully arranged narratives in all of the Bible. We have before us in the book of Ruth two young women who are faced with a decision, and each...2023-07-1140 minCovenant Community Church IndianapolisCovenant Community Church IndianapolisTurning Points in Life: Part II – Praying for OthersToday’s message in our “Turning Points in Life” Series is about ‘Praying for Others.’ One of the most powerful stories of prayer and recovery or restart is found in the book of Job. Nobody had to recover more than Job. Intercessory prayer was the sign of Job’s returning greatness. When Job’s soul began to expand itself in holy and loving prayer for his erring brethren, the heart of God showed itself to him by returning his prosperity and cheering his soul within. Pastor Wallace reminds us of four things: 1) intercessory prayer has been practiced by all the best of Go...2023-07-0431 minCovenant Community Church IndianapolisCovenant Community Church IndianapolisTurning Points in Life: Part 1 – RememberingAll of us have had “turning points” in our lives, where the direction we were going suddenly changed, often dramatically. Turning points can be positive or negative – impacted by relationships, seasons of life events, or life-changing experiences. Today’s message on “REMEMBERING,” is the first of a five-part sermon series on “Turning Points in Life.” In our series, we will explore the stories of men and women of Scripture and see how God worked in each one of their lives to bring a “turning point.” We will see how this “turning point” left each one radically different as persons and how that experience...2023-06-2746 minCovenant Community Church IndianapolisCovenant Community Church IndianapolisTHE FATHER’S GREAT LOVEHappy Father’s Day. In today’s message Pastor Wallace notes that although Father’s Day is a difficult day for some and a day of celebration for others; we all can celebrate and praise God for His great love. When it comes to a father’s love, the Scriptures have a lot to say, and they all point to the love of our Heavenly Father. The Scripture lesson teaches about what manner of God’s love is available and the object of that love – US. If you have not experienced the love of your earthly father, know that God can be y...2023-06-2037 minCovenant Community Church IndianapolisCovenant Community Church Indianapolis“The Power of Praise and Worship”In the book of Psalms, the various psalmists face all of life’s vicissitudes. There are ups-and-downs, highs and lows, victory-and-defeat, joy-and-sorrow, doubt-and-confidence. But when you get to the end of the book of Psalms, the storms cease, the clouds lift, and the sun shines. And as darkness gives way to light, life’s ultimate priority comes into view. And this ultimate priority is stated with an imperative: “Praise the Lord.” In today’s message Pastor Wallace highlight why God deserves our praise and suggests that God deserves our praise because of what He has done and who His is.

Pentecost marks the end of the Easter season. For Christians, it is a memorial of the day the Holy Spirit descended upon the apostles in the form of fiery tongues, an even t that took place fifty days after the Resurrection of Jesus. In today’s message, Pastor Wallace reminds us that Pentecost is an event of both the past and the present. The gift of the Holy Spirit is still alive and should move us to action and inspire us to share this gift with others.

In today’s message, Pastor Wallace suggest that not much has changed today. There’s a desire and hunger at work that cannot be satisfied, gratified, or fulfilled. It’s the same hunger that Isaiah in chapter 55 wants the people to be attentive to. He wants them to feel the depth of their hunger, to feel the depth of their desire. For what do you really hunger? For what do you really thirst?

How does one go from denying Jesus to boldly proclaiming that He is the Risen Lord! What accounts for this change in circumstances?

In the same manner, in today’s message Pastor Wallace shares with us that although many people don’t realize it, they are at odds with the worst enemy imaginable: the living God! Our sins means that outside of Christ, we are enemies of God. But God, because of His great love, sacrificed His own Son on our behalf to change us from enemies to friends, from alienation to reconciliation.

In today’s message, Pastor Wallace reminds believers that Jesus Christ has forever changed our status before God through His bloody cross and empty tomb. In light of our new position, not our “condition,” we can change our ways by the sovereign power of the risen Christ. That is the message of the text.

Theirs is an important story and we can learn a lot from them, particularly since we often do not know what it is that we are looking for.

And then lastly, he follows King David to see where he finds his assurance, that extraordinary security that characterizes him in Psalm 16.

We, like our ancient brothers and sisters, see a world that does not seem to reflect God’s ways in the world. If this conflict is not resolved, our faith becomes stuck and cannot grow further.
