Undignified Worship
August 31, 2014 04:00 - 55 minutes - 25.5 MB"Undignified Worship" is the fourth sermon in a series of messages about our worship to God. Pastor Jerry discusses the story of David when he danced before The Lord in an undignified manner in 2 Samuel 6:12-22. He stripped himself of all his royal clothing except the linen ephod.

The Power of Worship
August 24, 2014 04:00 - 53 minutes - 24.6 MB"The Power of Worship" is the third sermon in a series of messages about our worship to God. Pastor Jerry discusses why there is power in true worship. The text is taken from Acts 16:25-26. This is the story of Paul and Silas when they were in jail. Their worship and praise had so much power that it shook the very foundation of the jail and loosened everyone's bands. This is an example of what true worship can bring. We can have that same power if we fully give of ourselves as Paul and Silas ...
The Offering of Sacrificial Worship
August 17, 2014 04:00 - 1 hour - 29.5 MB"The Offering of Sacrificial Worship" is the second message in a series of sermons about our worship to God. Pastor Jerry discusses why we must sacrifice everything when we are worshiping The Lord. It begins with a change in attitude and results in a change of altitude. Sacrificial worship brings freedom!

Christlike
July 27, 2014 04:00 - 47 minutes - 22 MBIn the message "Christlike", Pastor Jerry discusses what it is to be truly like Christ. We have known for many years what it was to be 'Christ Like'. But that is changing. The world is mixed up and confused on what is to be like Christ. To see what He truly is like, we have to return to His Word. In The Bible we find many attributes we should have if we are Christ like. We will look at those attributes and the perfect example of being like Christ, Jesus Christ Himself!
But You... BE DIFFERENT
July 20, 2014 04:00 - 42 minutes - 19.7 MBIn the message "But You BE DIFFERENT", Pastor Jerry discusses why we as Christians should be different and that we need to fulfill the ministry that God has put in our lives. In being different, our mind needs to be clear so we can hear from The Lord. It's the front lines in our spiritual warfare with the enemy. We will suffer afflictions for being different because of serving The Lord. Stay focused and endure those things that rise up against you. Doing the work of an evangelist (bearer of g...
2 Sleepers 2 Boats 2 Storms
July 13, 2014 04:00 - 50 minutes - 23.3 MBIn the message "2 Sleepers 2 Boats 2 Storms", Pastor Jerry Laudermilk looks at the stories of Jesus in the boat (Mark 4:35-41) and Jonah (Jonah 1:1-5). Each story has a man sleeping on a boat during a storm. One went towards The Lord while the other went away from The Lord during their time in the rough waters.No matter if you are a Christian or not, you are going to face tough times in your life. Why not face them with Jesus Christ in your boat? We will discuss the similarities and differenc...
Independence Day In God
July 06, 2014 04:00 - 28 minutes - 13 MBIn the message "Independence Day In God", minister at Abundant Life Tabernacle, and guest podcaster on this site, Brian Hall discusses the story of Daniel when he was in the lion's den. Daniel was without fault but the officials used his faith as a reason to put him in the lion's den. While he was in there, Daniel prayed to God. In the end he was victorious and God was glorified. We as Christians are in our lion's den and can't get out. We ask God; "Why me?" and want to blame Him. Instead we ...
An Exposition of Psalm 1
June 29, 2014 04:00 - 50 minutes - 23.2 MBIn the message "The Beginning of Praises: An Exposition of Psalms 1", minister at Abundant Life Tabernacle, and guest podacster on this site, Bill Jacquin looks at the Book Of Psalms Chapter 1 verse by verse.

The way of the wicked you will perish but the way of the righteous knows The Lord.
Gathered From Babylon
June 22, 2014 04:00 - 48 minutes - 22.1 MBIn the message "Gathered From Babylon", Pastor Jerry discusses the similarities between the captivity of Judah in the Old Testament, and the captivation of the modern church by our society.
Abba Father
June 15, 2014 04:00 - 41 minutes - 18.8 MBIn the message "Abba Father", Pastor Jerry discusses the relationship between a father and his children. Also the intimate relationship we have with our Heavenly Father. As fathers, we are to love and care for our children. Especially when they are in trouble. We are to be Godly examples that our children can follow. If we will model our lives after God, we will come into greater relationship with Him. In this discussion we will discover why God is Abba Father!
Transformation: Pentecost
June 08, 2014 04:00 - 41 minutes - 18.9 MBIn the message "Transformation: Pentecost", Pastor Jerry discusses the Day of Pentecost and how our lives are changed once we receive The Holy Spirit. In Judaism, the holiday that's associated with Pentecost is called The Shavout. It points us to the holiness of God and demands us to live holy. But it makes no provision for our insufficiencies. This is where the New Covenant in Christianity is different. It is the giving of transformational power that allows the believer to live holy, becaus...
Going Forward
June 01, 2014 04:00 - 37 minutes - 17.1 MBIn the message "Going Forward", Pastor Jerry discusses why it is important to pursue the Lord and to do what He has called us to do. Many times Christians get complacent in their walk in The Lord. We get comfortable and don't feel the need to do any more. All the while, not realizing we are getting farther away from God and the many blessings He has in store for us. We will discuss why going beyond our church walls is what God really wants us to do. We are to be a light in the world and sprea...
Who Are You Really?
May 18, 2014 04:00 - 46 minutes - 21.1 MBIn the message "Who Are You Really?", Pastor Jerry discusses the time in the Bible when Jacob wrestled with and angel of The Lord. Jacob had been known as a strong and mighty man. But there were some deceitful things in his life that no one but God knew about. He had tricked his father Isaac into thinking he was Esau and received a blessing that he didn't deserve. Jacob had been putting on a mask to try and fool people into thinking he was something that he really wasn't. Then he wrestled all...
The Bible's Most Under Appreciated Mother
May 11, 2014 04:00 - 33 minutes - 15.4 MBIn this message, Pastor Jerry talks about the life of the mother of Moses. Her name was Jochebed. She was born into slavery and that was all she knew. When Moses was born she defied the pharaoh and hid him away so he would not be killed. We see throughout this part of her life how she trusted God. By doing this, it allowed Moses to become one of the greatest men of God. Mothers today often feel under appreciated as do some fathers. Even though we may feel like this, we as parents are to insti...
Passing On The Blessings
May 04, 2014 04:00 - 44 minutes - 20.4 MBIn the message 'Passing On The Blessings', Pastor Jerry brings forth that parents are to do everything in their power to ensure a Godly upbringing of their children. Parents are to not just talk the talk but walk the walk. As parents we are to do as God instructed. We look at the house of Obededom in 2 Samuel 6 and how it was blessed by doing what God instructed as to the ark of the covenant. And also how Uzza was destroyed for not following God's instruction.
Teaching A Generation
April 27, 2014 04:00 - 54 minutes - 24.9 MBThe message 'Teaching A Generation' is part five in the "Building Better Families" series. In this message Pastor Jerry talks about God's instruction on how a parent is to raise their child. Directing them the narrow way that is to The Lord. As a parent, we are to be an example of our Lord Jesus Christ to our children in everything we say and do. The influence we have on our kids is great even when we don't think they are really watching us. We will also discuss how our children are to grow w...
Victorious
April 20, 2014 04:00 - 44 minutes - 20.2 MBIn this Easter message we look at the victorious life of Christ from his birth through His ministry. Then we observe that the days leading up to the crucifixion, and His actual death on the cross, seemed less than victorious. Jesus proved though with his resurrection that he was victorious over everything, including death, hell, and the grave! Because of His victory, we can also be victorious!

Contract or Covenant (Building Better Families)
March 30, 2014 04:00 - 1 hour - 29.4 MBThe message 'Contract or Covenant?' is part two in the "Building Better Families" series. In this message Pastor Jerry goes into detail why marriage is a covenant and not just a contract. We will also see the differences between a covenant and a contract.

Foundations (Building Better Families)
March 23, 2014 04:00 - 52 minutes - 24.3 MBThe message 'Foundations' is part one in the "Building Better Families" series. In this message Pastor Jerry lays a foundation for this series, and explores the biblical foundations of marriage. God was the inventor of marriage. As a matter of fact, it was the first institution he created, even before His church and God calls marriage the "Institution He loves." In this message we will find out why God loves marriage so much and therefore why it's under such an attack today from our adve...
High Five
March 09, 2014 05:00 - 49 minutes - 22.7 MBIn the message "High Five" Pastor Jerry reminds us that we ALL have a 'high' calling from God, then urged the church body to serve 'five' Sundays, in the ministry area of their choice, in the year ahead. Serving is certainly biblical and should be expected of all followers of Christ. Serving will also help also us to find the place of our calling in the body. Laborers are needed in the harvest. We have prayed for them. Now is the time for action! Key Scripture: Phil. 3:7-15 Notes and be ...
Living Proof
March 02, 2014 05:00 - 48 minutes - 22.3 MBJesus was the expressed image of the Father, and therefore living proof of the character of God. But Jesus has commissioned us to be living proof also.

Core Values
February 23, 2014 05:00 - 57 minutes - 26.2 MBOur values drive us. Values drive our families. Values drive our culture and our nation. So what do you value? What are your values based on? Are your values based in opinion, perspective, or truth? God's Word is truth and as Christians, it should be the foundation of our personal values, the values of our families, and the values of our churches. Certainly it would be wonderful if the values of our God, would once again be the values of His people. May you be blessed and drawn toward Go...
How To Break The heart Of God
February 16, 2014 05:00 - 48 minutes - 22.5 MBWe don't really need any pointers on how to break God's heart. We have all done a pretty good job of that already at one time or another. However, if we know what breaks God's Heart we'll know better how to keep from breaking it. In this message Pastor Jerry points out clearly what breaks God's heart and how we can bring Him joy. May you be blessed and encouraged to honor God to a greater extent.For notes copy and paste this link to your browser: http://sprng.me/j8h7u
How Can There Be Peace?
January 20, 2014 05:00 - 59 minutes - 27.1 MB“How Can There Be Peace?” In this sermon, Pastor Jerry asks this question drawing from a story in 2nd Kings Chapter 9, verses 14-24.

Jehu rides into town in his chariot, and upon their meeting King Joram asks if Jehu has come in peace. “How can there be peace?” Jehu respo...
The Cost of Revival
January 12, 2014 05:00 - 59 minutes - 27.4 MBPart 3 of the Revival Series - "The Cost of Revival". In this message Pastor Jerry reminds us that Jesus said we need to 'count the cost' of being His disciple. It is costly, and revival is no different... It will cost you!

Find out what the costs are. Listen now...

In this message pastor Jerry preaches from Ezekiel 37 about the Valley of Dry Bones and its significance for the modern church. We are mostly dead and dry. If America needs anything, it needs the Church to be revived! With revival comes new life, new passion, new power and radical change in society! So, what is revival? Revival is the renewal of ‘the church’. A reigniting of the flame of passion and purpose in the body of Christ. It’s an awakening of t...
God Is Offensive!
December 08, 2013 05:00 - 50 minutes - 23 MBSure it's offensive to the world that we claim our God is the only God, but that is what he has claimed about himself. Yet, it isn't just the world that is offended by God. So are we! We want him to be more like us! He's too holy! His standard to perfect. His grace is even too amazing. So amazing in fact that He's willing to forgive the worst sinner. Even child molesters and murders can find grace! That offends us... But God is willing to offend us with His love and with His truth bec...
Success
December 02, 2013 05:00 - 43 minutes - 20.1 MBDoes God want you to succeed in life? Most certainly He does! We sometime question that, but His Word makes it very clear.

In this message, Pastor Jerry shows us from the Word that God does want us to succeed. We'll also see what true success looks like. May you be blessed by the Word!
Extra (Extraordinary)
November 24, 2013 05:00 - 50 minutes - 23.1 MBWhat is the 'Extra' thing that makes ordinary people become "Extraordinary"? In this message we will look at why we, as sons and daughters of God, have no business being trapped in 'ordinary'.

October 13, 2013 04:00 - 55 minutes - 25.4 MBSeven Types of Prayer Part 2: The series continues with #2 Petitions, #3 Praise, and #4 Thanksgiving. Petitions are the MOST common type of prayer. We have all asked God for something and that's proper, He told us to ask. However, we sometimes act as though God is nothing more than some cosmic genie, who we hope will grant our wishes. God's far more than that, and He deserves prayers of praise and thanksgiving offered in faith, 'with' our petitions. Keep listening to hear what God will sp...

Listen to hear what God will speak to your heart about prayer this week and check back in the coming weeks for the remainder of this series.
The Assignment
September 29, 2013 04:00 - 56 minutes - 25.9 MBJohn the Baptist was a man who knew the assignment given him by God, and he was faithful to it. What about you? Everyone has a job to do in the Kingdom of God. Do you know what God's assignment is for your life? Are you being faithful to it?
The End Of Faith
September 22, 2013 04:00 - 52 minutes - 24 MBJesus asked, "When I return, will I find faith?" We live in a time that our faith is consistently being tested. There are those who aren't holding fast to their profession of faith. Are you? Others have questioned the faith that was handed down to them. We have been admonished by the Word to earnestly contend for the faith. Will you hold tight to your faith in God in these last days and in these perilous times? Faith will end one day, but let us hold it tight to our faith until it becom...
Kites and Puppets
September 08, 2013 04:00 - 42 minutes - 19.7 MBWhat do kites and puppets have in common? That's right... Strings. We often want to live our lives with "no strings attached" because we want control of our own lives. Strings aren't always a bad thing though. Without strings a puppet lies uselessly on the stage floor. Without a string, a kite will not fly. It needs the lift of the wind to make it rise, but the tug of the string to keep it grounded. Similarly, we need God pulling the strings in our live!
The Form or The Fire Audio.wav
September 05, 2013 04:00 - 1 hour - 31.4 MBThe Prophet Elijah stood on Mt. Carmel, all day, waiting for the prophets of Baal as they prayed, danced, pleaded, climbed on the altar, and even cut themselves, but no answer came. They had a 'form' but they had no power. Then Elijah prayed, a short prayer, and fire fell consuming the offering, the altar, the water in the trench, the rocks, and even the dust. Too many modern Christians have a form of godliness, yet no fire. What about you? Do you have the form or the fire?
Obtaining Your Promise From God
December 30, 2012 05:00 - 59 minutes - 27.2 MBGod has made us all promises, many from His Word and perhaps a few through personal communication with us. His promises are yea (yes) and amen (so-be-it), through Christ Jesus. God is certainly faithful, yet we sometimes miss the fulfillment of promises because we don't meet His conditions for receiving. How then can we be sure that we obtain these promises? Listen to find three things you can do to obtain YOUR promise from God!
