July 5, 2026 - The Curse-Free Kingdom - Dr. Jonathon Woodyard

Dr. Jonathon Woodyard explores the concept of godly patriotism and the believer’s call to live on mission for Christ while awaiting His eternal reign,. Drawing from Acts 1:1-8, the sermon defines the Kingdom of God as God’s people in His place enjoying His presence—a “curse-free” kingdom that believers should yearn for more than any earthly comfort. While encouraging a posture of gratitude and “wholesome patriotism” for one’s country, the message emphasizes the necessity of “ordered loves,” ensuring that Christ remains the supreme treasure of the heart. Ultimately, Christians are called to be empowered witnesses, sharing the message of Jesus’ resurrection and the offer of forgiveness with a world in need.
