Packinghouse PodcastGenesis 4 | Greg OpeanIn this message Pastor Greg unpacks Genesis chapter 4, taking us from the first mention of sex in Scripture through the tragic account of Cain and Abel. He contrasts Abel’s faith‑filled offering (Hebrews 11:4) with Cain’s self‑willed sacrifice, exposing how pride and unchecked anger lead to sin’s devastating fallout—even the first murder. Examining Cain’s curse, the mark of mercy, and the birth of two rival lineages, Pastor Greg reveals the cascading consequences of calling our own shots. Ultimately, he points us to Christ—the true Lamb of God—whose way of humble obedience restores us to fellowship with...2025-07-2800 min
Packinghouse PodcastActs 2 | Greg OpeanPastor Greg begins by grounding Acts 2 in Israel’s Festival calendar: Jesus was crucified on Passover, laid in the tomb during Unleavened Bread, raised on Firstfruits, and fifty days later—the Feast of Pentecost—the promised Holy Spirit was poured out. He highlights that Jesus told His disciples to “wait” in unified, prayerful expectation for this power from on high.When Pentecost “fully came,” they experienced the sound of a rushing wind and saw tongues of fire resting on each believer, enabling them to speak in languages they’d never learned. Pastor Greg teaches that spiritual gifts—especially tongues—are given for personal str...2025-07-2800 min
Packinghouse PodcastGenesis 5 | Greg OpeanIn this sermon the pastor walks us through Genesis 1–4—creation, the fall, Cain and Abel’s tragedy and the godly line of Seth—then turns to Genesis 5 as the genealogy from Adam to Noah. He highlights the recurring “and he died” to underscore how sin brought mortality into the world, with Enoch alone “taken” by God as a foreshadow of resurrection. He surveys several explanations for the unusually long lifespans—perfect pre‑Flood genetics, a different environment, symbolic numbering or dynastic lines—while honestly admitting that the Bible’s own intent isn’t yet fully clear to him. Finally, he unveils a hidden message woven...2025-07-2800 min
Packinghouse PodcastGenesis 3:16-24The Fall and the Love That Calls Us Out
In this deep study of Genesis 3, Pastor Rick unpacks the story of humanity’s fall — the original “Breaking Bad” moment in Scripture. We see how sin shattered the innocence of Adam and Eve, introduced shame and blame, and brought deep brokenness into every part of life and relationships.
But even in the middle of judgment, God’s grace shines. Pastor Rick highlights God’s immediate plan of redemption through the promised seed — a prophecy of Jesus, who would crush the serpent’s head and set us free.
We are invited to come out of hidi...2025-07-1400 min

The Beginning of Everything—and the Lie
In this deep dive into Genesis chapters 2 and 3, Pastor Greg explores the beauty and innocence of creation—and the devastating moment everything changed.
We see God’s design for marriage, the oneness and trust between Adam and Eve, and the unbroken fellowship they shared with God. But into that perfect garden entered the serpent, bringing the lie that God could not be trusted.
Pastor Greg unpacks what it meant for Adam and Eve to “eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil,” the subtlety of the enemy’s de...2025-07-0800 min

Just Wait?
In this message from Acts 1:12–26, Pastor Greg unpacks the importance of waiting on God rather than moving ahead in our own strength. After Jesus' resurrection and before the coming of the Holy Spirit at Pentecost, the disciples were given a simple command: wait. But as Pastor Greg highlights, Peter, ever impulsive, took matters into his own hands by leading the group to choose a twelfth apostle by casting lots.
Through Peter’s example, we see our own temptation to “help God out” instead of trusting His timing. The message contrasts the patience God calls us to with ou...2025-06-3000 min

Designed for Relationship
In this final section of Genesis 2, Pastor Greg unpacks God’s design for humanity through the lens of relationship, vocation, and worship. As the account of creation narrows from a cosmic view to the garden of Eden, we’re reminded that God made humans as body, soul, and spirit — uniquely set apart from the animal kingdom with the capacity to know and connect with Him.
Pastor Greg explores how God placed Adam in the garden with a calling to both steward creation and guard the center — a place of worship where God’s presence and authorit...2025-06-2600 min

The Design of Rest and Relationship
In Genesis 2, Pastor Greg explores God’s intentional design for both creation and humanity. While Genesis 1 gives the chronology of creation, chapter 2 shifts focus to humanity as the crown of God’s work. God establishes the pattern of work and rest, not because He needs rest, but to model a rhythm for our flourishing. Pastor Greg also unpacks the distinction between mankind and animals, highlighting that while both have souls (nefesh), only humans were uniquely given the "breath of life" — a spiritual connection to God. As God forms Adam and places him in t...2025-06-1900 min

Created to know the Creator
In this message from Genesis 1, Pastor Greg reminds us that while the age of the earth is an interesting topic, it’s not the point of the passage—or of our faith. Whether someone leans young earth or old earth, the essential truth remains the same: God created everything, and our salvation rests in Jesus Christ.
Greg explores how Scripture and nature both declare God’s glory, and why we should approach non-essential issues with humility and grace. The focus isn’t on debating theories—it’s on knowing the Creator and trusting...2025-06-1200 min

Guest SpeakersGuest Speaker Greg Opean - Ezra 3:1-7Who among us has not failed? Who among us can truthfully say I can make it on my own? The Israelites failed and walked in disobedience, but God used and allowed circumstances to bring His people back to a place of worship. Pastor Greg Opean presents a stimulating message of returning to the God of our lives as we read in the Book of Ezra how the people met and rebuilt the alter of God to renew their worship with God.
