Salvation Is Real by Pastor Mike Jenkins on Sunday, July 5, 2026

Pastor Mike Jenkins unpacks the multi-layered reasons believers and seekers alike gather on Sunday mornings, focusing heavily on our ultimate need: true salvation. Pulling from his 12 years of Air Force service, he compares the deep sacrifices made for national freedom to the ultimate, unmatched sacrifice Jesus Christ made to free humanity from the curse of death. This message dives straight into tough, uncompromised truths about sin, cultural identity, and moral boundaries, while simultaneously offering the beautiful, healing hope of a just God who justifies us. Pastor Mike challenges the church to step out of the pews, move beyond a consumer-minded faith, and carry the fire of revival directly into the community. -- Every person who walks through the church doors comes with a hungry expectation for a real manifestation of God, whether they fully realize it or not. -- True gratitude stems from recognizing the finished work of Jesus Christ on the cross, which has already provided for our greatest spiritual needs. -- The church must remain unashamed to preach the literal word of God regarding sin, reminding believers that God is both loving and perfectly just. -- True worship means honoring God exclusively for who He is, rather than treating Him like a cosmic vending machine designed to hand out blessings on demand. -- Believers are called to be active doers of the Word, utilizing their unique gifts and financial resources as responsible stewards to actively advance the Kingdom. -- The gospel of Mark reveals that Jesus was actively preaching the "gospel of the kingdom" as a joyful announcement well before the events of the cross and resurrection took place.
