Pure in Their Own Eyes

In “Pure in Their Own Eyes,” Pastor Dean Odle warns against self-deception that preserves religious appearance while resisting God’s Word. Beginning with the parable of the sower in Mark 4, he argues that the condition of the heart determines whether the Word bears lasting fruit. Proverbs 30 supplies the title: a generation may consider itself pure while remaining unwashed from its filthiness. The sermon presses hearers to judge spiritual claims by Scripture and fruit, not popularity, emotional display, titles, or outward worship.

Go Forward

“Go Forward” is Pastor Dean Odle’s call to steadfast, courageous obedience when fear, disappointment, or pressure tempts a believer to retreat. Beginning with Israel at the Red Sea in Exodus 14, the sermon emphasizes God’s command to move forward even when no natural path is visible. Isaiah 43 reinforces the theme that God can make a new way, while Hebrews 10 warns against casting away confidence or drawing back.

Are you Dead Yet

In “Are You Dead Yet?” Pastor Nancy calls believers to die to self through humility, obedience, and practical service. Beginning with Galatians 2:20 and Christ’s self-emptying example in Philippians 2, she contrasts the hunger for recognition with the mind of Jesus, who lowered himself, accepted suffering, and put others first. Paul’s testimony, James’ command to humble oneself, and Jesus’ warnings against self-exaltation reinforce the central question: has the old self truly yielded to Christ?
