The Implanted Word PodcastThe Perfect Church...Almost Part 3 Have you ever pretended to be someone you aren’t? You’ve put on a fake facade or personality to get someone to like you or to receive approval, but you can only pretend to be something you aren’t for so long. Eventually, you are bound to break. Today, Pastor Bill will remind you that there is no pretending with God. You can’t fake your way into heaven, no matter how hard you try. God can see the things that others may overlook. Everything might look put together from the outside, but it's what's inside that matters. ...

Why do bad things happen then? If God has the power to stop evil, why doesn’t He? Today, Pastor Bill will remind you that although God has the power to stop Satan, it’s not time yet. His ultimate plan hasn’t been fulfilled, and the world is still a fallen place. But the next time it feels like you are overwhelmed, like the enemy is going to win, remember that God is the one in control. He will help you win every battle...

It’s hard to understand what it’s saying if you read it like a normal book, because it’s much more than a book. The Bible is the living word of God! Today, Pastor Bill will remind you that it wasn’t written for a specific group of people, but that anyone could pick it up and hear God speak to them. Don’t be discouraged if you don’t understand it the first time through, but keep seeking...
2025-07-0225 minThe Implanted Word PodcastBoldness in Persecution Part 3 Sometimes you might wonder if what you do for Christ really matters. You prayed for somebody, you talked with a friend about your faith, you did some service in the community in the name of Jesus. But did it actually make any real difference? Today, Pastor Bill has an important reminder for you: everything you do for Christ has an impact for all of eternity. You can’t judge its value by its apparent results. You are doing the work, but it’s God who is accomplishing the results through you.
2025-07-0125 minThe Implanted Word PodcastBoldness in Persecution Part 2 It’s great to meet with a local church and learn about Jesus. The encouragement of fellow Christians, the experience of worship, and the chance to focus on God are foundational for the Christian life. But, as Pastor Bill shares today, none of that is a substitute for your own personal relationship with Jesus. When you read Jesus’s words and actions in the New Testament, and when you see Him working in your own circumstances, then you’ll have something you really want to talk with people about.
2025-06-3025 minThe Implanted Word PodcastBoldness in Persecution Part 1 What would you do if you were arrested and threatened for talking about Jesus? Would you ask God to remove the opposition? Would you pray for your safety? Which would you do first? Today, Pastor Bill explains what the apostles did first: they went back to their fellowship and prayed. And the request of their prayer was for God to give them boldness to continue to speak of Jesus. This prayer was recorded not just for historical purposes. It’s a prayer that you can pray for yourself today.
2025-06-2725 minThe Implanted Word PodcastIn Trouble For Jesus Part 2 As Pastor Bill continues his teaching series through the book of Acts, he’ll be reminding you that the same powerful work of the Holy Spirit is still happening to this day. All those who put their faith in Jesus Christ are immediately and permanently indwelt by the Holy Spirit. His power leads us, convicts us, teaches us, and equips us to do His work and spread the gospel. The Holy Spirit’s powerful indwelling is an amazing gift that you should never take lightly. Purpose to cooperate with His work within you!
2025-06-2525 minThe Implanted Word PodcastIn Trouble For Jesus Part 1 The saying “preach the gospel and, if necessary, use words” is a good reminder that our actions are important. We dare not allow our behavior to contradict our message. But actions alone are insufficient without the essential use of words in the gospel’s proclamation. Today, Pastor Bill will challenge you to not only live a godly life, but also to preach the Gospel to those that God has placed within your sphere of influence. If you were given a cure for a horrible disease, wouldn’t you share that information with others?
2025-06-2425 minThe Implanted Word PodcastJesus The Christ Part 3 In our world, things can seem very…ungodly and even feel like they’re getting worse and worse every day. BUT, God has a plan!!! He has a plan for our world, our lives, and the lives of everyone on this Earth! In today’s message, Pastor Bill will comfort you with that truth!!! The truth that Jesus is coming back, God has a plan, and the Holy Spirit is always with you! No matter what the world looks like, no matter what you’re facing, you are never alone! God of the universe is with and for you!!!
2025-06-2325 minThe Implanted Word PodcastJesus The Christ Part 2 It’s important that we know the Word of God and know right from wrong. It is also important that we let our friends and family know the truth as well! Now, more often than not, we can get hung up on just telling people God’s truth, and we forget God’s grace, patience, and even love. In today’s message, Pastor Bill will show how to speak God’s truth, but cover it with God’s grace! Truth without grace is simply brutality. As a Christian, you are the hands and feet of Jesus, and that is sharing trut...
2025-06-2025 minThe Implanted Word PodcastJesus The Christ Part 1 Being a Christian isn’t a religion, it isn’t about going to church, it isn’t even about how good you are…it is simply about Jesus Christ and our love for Him! In today’s message, Pastor Bill will encourage you to remember what being a follower of Christ is all about…it’s spending time with Christ, learning to be more like Him, and sharing that unmeritorious love that He showed you, with others! You are a saved, loved, and brand-new person in Jesus Christ!! Why wouldn’t you want to share that with others?!
2025-06-1925 minThe Implanted Word PodcastFaith in the Name of Jesus Christ Part 3 Sin is a terrible scourge that has wreaked havoc on the human race. So much suffering and evil exist in this world, and it seemingly goes unchecked. But Pastor Bill reminds you that there is a ledger in the heavenly realms, a log of every sin ever committed. And one day, Jesus is going to judge the living and the dead. But if you have put your faith in Jesus and given your heart to Him, your account can be wiped clean. No sin is too great for Jesus to forgive if you come to Him with a repentant...
2025-06-1825 minThe Implanted Word PodcastFaith in the Name of Jesus Christ Part 1 It is important to be aware of what is going on in the world. Even though we no longer belong to the world, instead belonging to Christ, we should still have compassion on those who are enslaved by the snares of evil in the world we currently live in. Pastor Bill reminds us that there is chaos and sin driving everything around us, and we have been given the message of hope that will drive out the darkness; the message that Jesus will come again to rescue His bride from the devil’s clutches.
2025-06-1625 minThe Implanted Word PodcastThe Passion of God… and New Believers Part 3 A healthy church shouldn’t feel like a chore to belong to. The Church in Acts chapter 2 was made up of closely knit relationships, of people from all walks of life bound together by the common thread that they had been redeemed by the blood of Christ. Pastor Bill shares with you today that it’s so important to feel unity with your brothers and sisters. This world is hard enough on its own, but it’s even more difficult if you try and forgo the fellowship and community of the Church.
2025-06-1325 minThe Implanted Word PodcastThe Passion of God… and New Believers Part 2 Some people navigate very carefully through life, pausing frequently to evaluate where they find themselves and if they’re in a healthy place. Especially in a new church, it can be difficult to determine if the community is actually healthy, or if it’s just putting on a facade to draw in new members. But Pastor Bill gives you a surefire way to identify a healthy church: Are they teaching the word of God? If a church focuses on something other than the Bible, it is not built on a foundation that will last.
2025-06-1225 minThe Implanted Word PodcastThe Passion of God… and New Believers Part 1 It’s easy to take a passionate person the wrong way. When you hear a street preacher sharing the Gospel, your first reaction might be one of anger or annoyance. But when someone stops for a moment and listens to the words being said, they may just realize that the passion doesn’t come from someone’s mental instability, but from a real-life change that has taken place in the speaker’s heart! Pastor Bill reminds you that Peter was able to address entire crowds once he was emboldened by the Holy Spirit.

No, you need to wash the inside of the cup in order to remove the dirt and residue that has built up on the inside. Pastor Bill wants you to recognize today that in order for your life to be restored to the way God created you to be, the Holy Spirit needs to work from the inside out. If you try to fix yourself, you’re going from the outside in, and you won’t be able to weed...
2025-06-1025 minThe Implanted Word PodcastChurch Together… Proclaiming the Good News of Jesus Part 2 When the prophet Elijah fled into the wilderness, God told Him to meet on top of a mountain. A strong wind, an earthquake, and a great wildfire passed by, but God’s presence wasn’t in those phenomena. His voice cut through the silence right to the prophet’s heart. Pastor Bill teaches you today that the Holy Spirit works in the same way: He doesn’t speak to you through signs and wonders, but through the quiet moments spent meditating on God’s Word. He’s ready to speak to you in the silence.
2025-06-0925 minThe Implanted Word PodcastChurch Together… Proclaiming the Good News of Jesus Part 1 God is a God of surprises! You may think that you know the exact way that He is going to bring something to pass, but when He follows through, He uses a way that you had completely failed to consider beforehand. Pastor Bill teaches you today about the early Church in Acts chapter 2, and how they could not have predicted the way that God would bring new believers into the Body of Christ. The Lord loves to break humanity’s expectations, reminding you to never underestimate Him.
2025-06-0625 minThe Implanted Word PodcastChurch Together in a Prophetic Time Part 3 The message of the Gospel should give you urgency! You don’t know when Jesus is going to return for His Church. Although it is a basic instinct to anticipate the time that you are going to spend with the Lord in Heaven, you should also be concerned for your brothers and sisters who haven’t encountered Jesus yet. Pastor Bill wants you to be concerned for those who are going to be left behind when Jesus returns, because the Lord’s heart breaks for those who are going to miss out on Heaven.
2025-06-0525 minThe Implanted Word PodcastChurch Together in a Prophetic Time Part 2 The amazing thing about the Gospel is that it opens up communion with God to people of all walks of life, any ethnic background, and even of any age. In Old Testament times, only those consecrated by God could approach His presence. But Pastor Bill reminds you that once Jesus died on the cross, the connection was restored for all humanity. Anyone who recognizes the sickness of sin in their own hearts and calls on the name of Jesus will be welcomed into the Kingdom.
2025-06-0425 minThe Implanted Word PodcastChurch Together in a Prophetic Time Part 1 Trying to be a witness for God without the power of the Holy Spirit is like trying to drive a car without gas in it. Yes, you have the passion and the drive to reach people for Jesus, but you need that supernatural fuel to get things really going. Pastor Bill teaches you today about how the early Church was driven by the Holy Spirit, empowered to spread the Gospel in a world that was still hostile to the teachings of Jesus. The Lord can and will do amazing things through you by His Holy Spirit.
2025-06-0325 minThe Implanted Word PodcastChurch Together in a Crazy World Part 3 In order to experience the plans that God has for us in this life, we need to accept the Holy Spirit into our lives. Pastor Bill teaches us today that just like Mary listened to the words of the angel Gabriel and received the blessing of carrying Jesus, you and I have the privilege to carry the power of God around with us as well. When we accept the Holy Spirit’s power in our lives, He will work in our hearts and change the world around us. But He won’t do any of that if we don’t acce...
2025-06-0225 minThe Implanted Word PodcastChurch Together in a Crazy World Part 2 One of the ways that the Holy Spirit can work in your life is to reconcile relationships that may have been strained or broken by past conflict. Pastor Bill encourages you today that those friends and family members who seem too far away from God are only one encounter away from giving their lives over to Him. So while you remain faithful in prayer, asking the Lord to reveal Himself to those lost sheep, He is working behind the scenes to redirect their attention and help them see what they are missing out on.
2025-05-3025 minThe Implanted Word PodcastChurch Together in a Crazy World Part 1 From the moment God created Adam, He desired to have a relationship with humanity. But when Adam and Eve sinned in the Garden of Eden, that bond between man and God was broken. Pastor Bill teaches you today that just as mankind was given life by the breath of God, it was the last breath of Jesus on the cross that restored the bond that man had broken. And just like you’ve received that new breath of life in Jesus, He also wants to breathe His Holy Spirit to live inside you as well....

Is there something different about you that separates you from your peers and makes them want to know more? Pastor Bill encourages you today that with the strength of the Holy Spirit, you can be empowered to stand apart, to be a light in the darkness. Your goal should be for your life to guide people’s eyes toward Jesus, so that they can encounter Him for themselves.
2025-05-2825 minThe Implanted Word PodcastFaith Founded on Facts Part 2 You’ve probably heard preachers who say that God shows His favor on you by showering you with riches, all in an effort to get you to open up your wallet. But God wants something more than just your money, He wants your obedience. Pastor Bill teaches today that the Lord uses people in all walks of life to reach the people right where they are. If you think that your life is too small for God to use, think again! The same God who multiplied the loaves and fishes can multiply His Kingdom through you....
2025-05-2725 minThe Implanted Word PodcastFaith Founded on Facts Part 1 It can feel intimidating to be part of Jesus’ grand plan for the world. After all, we’re imperfect people! Every single one of us has a rap sheet with thousands of reasons why we don’t measure up to Jesus’ standard of righteousness. But Pastor Bill reminds us that all throughout Scripture, God has used imperfect people to complete His work on this Earth. So why is it any different now? Let’s allow the Lord to use our testimonies and our lives to reach those who wouldn’t be reached otherwise.

The whole thing, from Genesis to Revelation, can be applicable to men and women… no matter what. In today’s message, Pastor Bill will teach that you can’t turn past certain chapters or verses just because they use gender specific language.

We know that Jesus already holds the title deed to the Earth, but as part of His Church, we get to take part in that ownership. Pastor Bill encourages us today to rejoice in the coming Kingdom and also to reach as many people for Jesus as possible before the final trumpet sounds. Everyone is called to join the Body of Christ, but not all who are invited will answer the call to follow Him.

Steel, concrete, and glass are crafted together to create massive structures, but they didn’t just show up one day. Skilled workers had to take those materials to form them into something bigger. Pastor Bill reminds you today that just like an expert builder, God can take the tiny things that you offer from your feeble life and turn them into something glorious. Never doubt what the Lord can do with your loaves and your fishes.
2025-05-0825 minThe Implanted Word PodcastThe Great Mystery Part 3 Ever since the fall of man in the Garden of Eden, mankind has had a problem with jealousy and lust. Immoral desires can be one of the deepest roots of sin in the hearts of even the most faithful followers of Jesus. Pastor Bill doesn’t want you to think you’re immune to this problem, either. This common struggle unites the body of Christ and makes you realize that your brothers and sisters in the Lord are your equals. The thing that unites you all is the love of Jesus that supersedes those immoral desires.
2025-05-0725 minThe Implanted Word PodcastThe Great Mystery Part 2 There are some people in the world who have devoted their lives to explaining every tiny bit of life through the lens of science. Their goal, whether they truly know it or not, is to try and numb their need for the love of God, because that love is something that can’t be explained by science. Pastor Bill encourages you today to be caught up in the wonder of the agape love of God. Don’t try to explain away this kind of love, but instead allow yourself to be immersed in and consumed by it.

When Paul and Silas were sharing the Gospel with them, the Bereans went back to the Old Testament to see if their claims lined up with God’s Word.
