Our Protestant Identity - Mattie Montgomery May 05, 2026

Show notes

Salvation stands on Christ alone, not on tradition, performance, or human authority. When we return to Scripture as our measure, we recover the same simple faith that saved the thief on the cross—grace received, not earned.

Don't Go There - Dr. Rich Hartmann Apr 28, 2026

Show notes

Sin rarely starts with action—it starts with entertaining the wrong thought. When we let our reasoning override God’s word or resist authority, we follow Eve’s path. The BETTER way is Christ’s: humble, obedient, and quick to take every thought captive before it takes hold.

Sinners in the Hand of a Merciful Savior - Mattie Montgomery Apr 14, 2026

Show notes

Jesus’ story of the Pharisee and the tax collector flips our instincts—God isn’t impressed by our track record, but by a heart that knows it needs mercy. Real faith starts when we stop comparing ourselves to others and come to Him empty-handed.

Because He Lives - Mattie Montgomery Apr 07, 2026

Show notes

Easter holds the tension of people flipping from “Hosanna” to “Crucify Him,” while Jesus steps in to take the weight of our sin and defeat death—proving who God really is. And even with doubts still in the room, He calls imperfect people like us to trust Him and follow anyway.

The Power of Preaching - Mattie Montgomery Apr 01, 2026

Show notes

Preaching isn’t just a church thing—it’s how God chose to reach people, and it starts long before a platform, in the way we live and speak about Jesus every day. If people can’t believe without hearing and can’t hear without someone speaking up, then following Him means actually opening our mouths and treating His Word like it matters.

Jesus Is King: The Deity and Humility of Christ - Mattie Montgomery Mar 31, 2026

Show notes

Palm Sunday shows Jesus entering Jerusalem to shouts of “Hosanna”—a prayer meant for God alone—and instead of correcting them, He accepts their worship, revealing that God didn’t just send help, He came Himself in humility. The moment pushes us to drop our labels, see Him for who He truly is, and respond not just to what He’s done, but to who He is.

Nicodemus: From Seeking to Serving - Mattie Montgomery Mar 10, 2026

Show notes

Nicodemus starts by visiting Jesus quietly at night but ends up publicly honoring Him at great personal cost. His story pushes us to ask a simple question: are we just interested in Jesus when it’s convenient, or are we willing to follow Him even when it costs us something?

Just Be You - Parker Thomaston Mar 10, 2026

Show notes

What does it look like to stop performing for God and start living from the security of already being chosen? Like David refusing Saul’s armor, we’re free to use what God actually gave us, trust that Christ has already won the battle, and rest in the truth that we fight from victory, not for it.

Love Your Neighbor: A Biblical Framework for Immigration and Enforcement - Mattie Montgomery Feb 24, 2026

Show notes

Biblical love starts with who God is and moves outward in the right order — caring first for those closest to us, knowing the church is called to show mercy while the state is meant to restrain evil, and remembering that real compassion is shaped by truth and wisdom, not whatever the culture expects.

Set Your Mind on Things Above - Mattie Montgomery Feb 17, 2026

Show notes

Jesus did not call us to wait for Heaven, but to let it shape the ground beneath our feet. As we give ourselves to God day by day and allow our minds to be changed, His will becomes clear—not through spectacle, but through steady faithfulness in the ordinary moments entrusted to us.
