From the series "Unity In The Body: A Study of Ephesians"

Ephesians 1:1-2 - In the introduction to Ephesians, Pastor Bob calls the church back to its “first love” — a vibrant, passionate relationship with Jesus Christ.

Through Ephesians 1:1-2 and the backdrop of Revelation 2, he explores how a thriving church like Ephesus could become doctrinally strong yet lose the heart of its faith: love for Jesus. With personal stories, biblical examples, and a heartfelt challenge, this sermon urges believers to pursue holiness, abandon idols, and embrace the grace and peace found only in Christ. Whether you're thriving or struggling, you’ll be encouraged to move forward in your relationship with Jesus and rediscover the joy of loving Him deeply.

From our Thursday Night series on the book of 2 Corinthians.

Please Note: Due to technical difficulties, the first few minutes of the sermon audio was not recorded.

2 Corinthians 1:1-2 - In this opening message on 2 Corinthians, Pastor Bob lays the foundation for a deep and practical journey through Paul’s letter to a struggling church. He reminds us that the Corinthian church, though messy and flawed, was deeply loved by God—just like people today. Emphasizing the importance of meeting people where they are, Pastor Bob challenges us to embrace discipleship, walk with others in their spiritual growth, and reflect the glory of Christ in everyday life. Through Paul's apostolic authority and heart for people, we are called to live differently in our own “modern-day Corinth.”

Legacy Message Series: Philippians

In this message from Philippians 4, Pastor Larry Katz continues his study of Paul's letter by addressing one of the greatest threats to Christian joy: worry. Building on the theme of joy found throughout Philippians, he teaches how worry—whether about everything or about the basic needs of life—can rob believers of peace and faith. Drawing from Paul’s powerful words, “Be anxious for nothing,” Pastor Katz outlines practical, biblical steps to help us stand firm in the Lord, rejoice always, and trust in God's provision. This sermon offers hope, challenge, and encouragement for anyone battling anxiety and longing to live with confident trust in Christ.

From the series "Unity In The Body: A Study of Ephesians"

Acts 18:24-20:38 - Pastor Bob reflects on the rich history and spiritual foundation of our nation before launching into the beginning of a new sermon series in the book of Ephesians. Drawing from Acts 18–20, he explores how the gospel first came to Ephesus—a powerful, commercial, and spiritually dark city—and how God used leaders like Apollos and Paul to plant a vibrant, truth-filled church.

Pastor Bob parallels that work with what God is doing today through Genesis Church in York County, calling believers to bold evangelism, spiritual unity, and renewed love for Christ. As the church prepares to walk through Ephesians in the coming months, this message is both a stirring reminder of our purpose and a passionate plea to rekindle our first love for Jesus.

Romans 1:16-17 - In this message, we are reminded of the power and beauty of the gospel of Jesus Christ and our call to live boldly and without shame. Drawing from Romans 1 and Ephesians 1, the sermon challenges us to examine whether we are truly living in the righteousness of Christ or slipping into self-righteousness and fear. The gospel is not about our works but about the saving power and righteousness of Jesus. As followers of Christ, we are invited to walk in freedom from condemnation, to proclaim the hope of salvation, and to reflect the mercy and grace of God to those still walking in darkness. The hope is to be a faithful vessel, unashamed of the gospel and bold in love.
