What does it truly mean to live by faith? In the first message of this four-part summer series, Pastor Burnie Lund delivers faithful expositional preaching on the foundational biblical concept that the just shall live by faith. Tracing this profound phrase from the Old Testament prophecy of Habakkuk to its deep explanation in Hebrews 11, we discover that true faith begins with abandoning our self-sufficiency to depend entirely on God. This sermon explores how faith is more real than our physical reality and must be an active verb rather than a passive noun. Discover a working, biblical definition of faith that demands real-life change, moving us from anxiety to perfect peace in the local church.Chapters:0:00:00 - Introduction to the Summer Series on Faith0:01:00 - The Importance of Personal Bible Study0:04:00 - The Phrase The Just Shall Live By Faith0:05:00 - A Thirty Year Regret About the Definition of Faith0:08:00 - Understanding Habakkuk and the Nation of Babylon0:11:00 - Unlocking Old Testament Mysteries in the New Testament0:14:00 - Faith is Abandoning Self Sufficiency0:17:00 - Exploring Hebrews Chapter 110:19:00 - Faith is More Real Than Reality0:25:00 - Faith is a Verb Not a Noun0:28:00 - A Working Definition of Faith0:30:00 - Evaluating Real Life ChangePlease share this video with your friends and encourage them to learn more at: [www.canyonridgebaptist.com](https://www.canyonridgebaptist.com) Did you accept Christ as your Savior today?

Have you ever wondered why ancient Roman concrete structures like the Pantheon are still standing thousands of years later? In this final message of the Built to Last series, Pastor Chris Chadwick uses this incredible historical reality to illustrate how a Christian's faith can withstand the storms of life. Through faithful expositional preaching of Jude's closing doxology, we discover that our spiritual survival does not depend on our own strength, but on the God who is able to keep us from falling.

What is the worst kind of debt you can imagine? In this powerful Good Friday message, Pastor Chris Chadwick explores the massive sin debt that every person owes to a holy God—a debt we could never pay on our own. Through faithful expositional preaching of John 18 and 19, we witness the trial, severe suffering, and crucifixion of Jesus Christ.

In this Palm Sunday message, Pastor Chris Chadwick explores the triumphal entry of Jesus into Jerusalem from Matthew 21. Through faithful expositional preaching, we contrast the world's idea of a royal coronation with the humble arrival of the Savior on a donkey's colt. While the crowds shouted Hosanna, they were looking for a political deliverer rather than a Savior from sin, revealing the fickleness of the human heart. This sermon challenges believers to examine their own devotion, overcome spiritual drift, and truly worship Jesus as the unrivaled King of Kings who alone is worthy of our praise.Chapters: 0:00:00 - The Joy of a Good Rivalry0:05:00 - The Most Important Coronation in History0:08:45 - The Foundation of Christ's Ministry0:11:30 - Securing the Donkey and the Colt0:14:45 - Fulfilling the Old Testament Prophecies0:18:00 - Why Jesus Rode a Lowly Colt0:22:00 - The Exaltation and Praises of the Crowd0:27:30 - Praising God for the Wrong Reasons0:33:00 - The True Identity of Jesus Christ0:39:00 - The Rebellion and Fickleness of the Human Heart0:44:00 - Guarding Against Spiritual Drift0:48:00 - Searching Our Hearts Before the KingPlease share this video with your friends and encourage them to learn more at:www.canyonridgebaptist.comDid you accept Christ as your Savior today?

What gets you out of bed in the morning? Is it money, success, survival, or something eternal? In this challenging message from 2 Corinthians 5, Pastor Chris Chadwick explores the true source of our motivation as believers. Through faithful expositional preaching, we learn that the Apostle Paul was driven by three profound realities: the coming Judgment Seat of Christ, a deep reverence for the truth, and the unfailing, constraining love of Jesus.

What does it mean to put in a good word for someone? In this message, Pastor Chris Chadwick takes us to the prophetic book of Isaiah to look at the powerful reality of sharing the gospel. Through faithful expositional preaching, we examine Israel's Babylonian captivity, the pain of foolish decisions that lead us away from God's protection, and the promise of a restored relationship. More importantly, we are challenged to look at our own lives and ask if we are willing to put in a good word for Jesus Christ. Whether preparing for Easter or simply living out our daily walk, this sermon is an encouraging reminder of the joy found in sharing the good news and the eternal impact of a faithful invitation.Chapters: 0:00:00 - Introduction: The Power of a Good Word0:04:40 - Understanding Prophecy in the Book of Isaiah0:10:45 - The Promise of a Brighter Future0:13:55 - The Pain of Foolish Decisions and Sin0:17:30 - The Profitless Exchange of the World0:24:00 - Facing the Consequences Instead of Escaping0:28:45 - A Restored Relationship and God's Promises0:33:05 - The Joy of Sharing the Good News0:37:30 - How Beautiful Are the Feet0:39:10 - A Father's Salvation Story0:45:40 - Will You Put in a Good Word for Jesus?0:50:00 - The Gospel: How Heaven Can Be Your HomePlease share this video with your friends and encourage them to learn more at:www.canyonridgebaptist.comDid you accept Christ as your Savior today?

In this powerful message delivered at Marriage Weekend 2026, Pastor Richard Rossiter explores the deep contrast between the Woman of Wisdom and the Woman of Folly as presented in Proverbs 9. While many focus solely on outward conduct, Pastor Rossiter challenges us to look deeper at the "World of Ideas" that drives our behavior. Discover why simply dictating conduct isn't enough to protect the next generation, and how cultivating a heart that fears the Lord and tastes His holiness is the only way to truly navigate the competing voices of our culture.Chapters:0:00:00 - Introduction: The Power of God's Word0:00:46 - Conduct vs. Ideas: Why Our Methods Are Failing0:03:10 - The Success Rate Crisis in the Church0:04:47 - Wisdom and Folly: Two Women in the Same City0:06:54 - The Call to the Simple: An Open Invitation0:08:31 - Substance vs. Secrets: Comparing the Commodities0:09:50 - Life or Death: The Ultimate Result0:11:32 - The Illusion of Love: A Dangerous Destination0:13:58 - Raising Smart Kids: Moving Beyond Compliance0:15:37 - The Sleeping Beauty Trap: The Danger of Isolation0:17:51 - Ideas Produce Conduct: The Power of Thinking0:19:15 - Activity vs. Idleness: Wisdom Works, Folly Sits0:21:50 - The Cleansing Filter: Moving Beyond Surface Ratings0:23:45 - The Powerpuff Girls and Cultural Shift0:26:00 - Your Attitude Determines Your Ideas0:27:31 - The Fear of the Lord: The Beginning of Change0:29:40 - A Father's Advice: Wisdom in Relationships0:32:04 - Information, Consideration, and Declaration0:35:10 - Conclusion: Choosing the Way of UnderstandingWe serve a great God and would love for you to grow in your faith with us!

In this challenging message from the 2026 Marriage Weekender, guest speaker Pastor Richard Rossiter of Cornerstone Baptist Church in Spring Hill, Florida explores the profound impact of the local church on a godless and immoral society. Turning to the book of Titus chapters 1 and 2, we discover that the ultimate solution for a declining culture is not found in politics or programs, but in a qualified man of God delivering faithful expositional preaching to the people of God. This sermon challenges believers to stop treating Christianity like a spectator sport and start taking personal responsibility for implementing biblical truth within their own families and marriages so that the Word of God be not blasphemed.Chapters:0:00:00 - Introduction to the Marriage Weekender0:01:00 - The Solution for a Godless Society0:08:30 - The Importance of the Local Church0:16:15 - A Qualified Man of God Preaching the Word0:25:40 - The Responsibility of the People of God0:34:20 - Christianity is Not a Spectator Sport0:40:10 - The Hardest Part: Implementation in the Family0:44:40 - Conclusion: Becoming Implementers of the WordPlease share this video with your friends and encourage them to learn more at:www.canyonridgebaptist.comDid you accept Christ as your Savior today?

In this practical and challenging session from Marriage Weekender 2026, Pastor Richard Rossiter of Cornerstone Baptist Church explores the common pitfalls in conflict resolution through the lens of King Saul's failures in 1 Samuel 15. Conflict is an inevitable part of marriage, but the goal for a Christian couple is not to "win" as enemies, but to seek resolution as allies. Pastor Rossiter identifies the various ways we evade true resolution—through excuses, spiritualizing our failures, or focusing on public perception—and calls husbands and wives to embrace the humility and ownership required to build a stronger, Christ-centered relationship.Chapters:0:00:00 - Introduction to Conflict Resolution0:01:21 - The Goal: Allies vs Enemies0:03:13 - Conflict as a Source of Strength0:05:41 - The Value of Alternative Opinions0:07:01 - Mistake One: Avoiding Conflict Entirely0:10:35 - All Sin Conflicts are with God0:12:05 - Tactic One: The Assumption of Correctness0:14:50 - Tactic Two: Excusing Failure Circumstantially0:16:34 - Tactic Three: Spiritualizing Failure0:18:18 - Tactic Four: Generalizing Successes0:21:28 - Tactic Five: The Caveat Confession0:23:13 - Tactic Six: Resolution Without Repentance0:25:39 - Tactic Seven: Valuing Public Perception Over Private Truth0:27:14 - The Legacy of Unresolved Conflict0:29:43 - Choosing the Heart of David Over SaulIf you were challenged by this message, we invite you to listen to more biblical teaching at canyonridgebaptist.com.

In this powerful session from Marriage Weekender 2026, Pastor Chris Chadwick dives into Ephesians 4 to reveal how the gospel reshapes our most intimate relationships.

In this powerful session from Marriage Weekender 2026, special guest Pastor Richard Rossiter from Cornerstone Baptist Church explores the profound theological significance of the marriage relationship.

In this challenging message from Philippians 2, Christian Saldana addresses the root cause of conflict in marriage: a lack of unity born from pride. By examining the Mind of Christ, we discover that true joy and oneness in marriage are not found in asserting our rights, but in the radical humility of serving our spouse. Through faithful expositional preaching, this sermon explores how Jesus Christ’s example of self-emptying love provides the ultimate blueprint for a God-honoring home. Learn how esteeming your spouse better than yourself can transform your relationship from a battleground into a picture of the Gospel, where humility leads to true exaltation and lasting peace.Chapters:0:00:00 - Introduction to the Mind of Christ in Marriage0:02:40 - Reading Philippians 2:3-110:05:40 - Unity Begins with Humility0:07:00 - The Destructive Nature of Vain Glory0:13:30 - Developing the Mind of Christ0:17:30 - Making Ourselves of No Reputation0:21:50 - Taking on the Form of a Servant0:25:30 - The Call to Die to Self0:29:40 - How God Exalts the Humble0:33:30 - Showing Grace in Your Spouse's WeaknessPlease share this video with your friends and encourage them to learn more at:www.canyonridgebaptist.comDid you accept Christ as your Savior today?

In this practical and challenging message, Pastor Zane Garza delivers faithful expositional preaching from 1 Peter 3:1-7, uncovering the roles husbands and wives must embrace to build a home that honors the Lord. By looking to the ultimate example of Jesus Christ—who did not revile when reviled and committed Himself to the Righteous Judge—couples are called to move beyond keeping score and instead trust in God’s perfect design. Whether you are navigating the challenges of leadership or the call to submission, discover how aligning with God’s order brings true freedom and blessing to your relationship.Chapters:0:00:00 - Introduction: Flight Patterns and Marriage Safety0:05:00 - The Big Idea: Success Depends on God's Pattern0:06:00 - Scripture Reading: 1 Peter 3:1-70:09:40 - The Biblical Pattern of Marriage: Wives in Subjection0:13:00 - Finding Safety in Biblical Order vs Cultural Lies0:17:30 - The Biblical Pattern of the Wife: Winning Your Husband0:23:20 - A Godly Wife is Modest and Fears God0:31:30 - The Biblical Pattern of Husbands: Overseeing the Home0:35:10 - Honoring the Wife as the Weaker Vessel0:36:50 - A Godly Husband Prays to Avoid Hindrance0:40:00 - Following the Example of Christ: No Sin, No Guile0:44:00 - Illustration: Shooting a Hole in the Yacht0:50:30 - Trusting God Instead of Keeping ScorePlease share this video with your friends and encourage them to learn more at:www.canyonridgebaptist.comDid you accept Christ as your Savior today?

In a world of volatile markets and uncertain financial futures, where safe investments like Enron or GT Advanced Technologies can collapse overnight, where is the safest place to put your treasure? In this challenging message for Missions Sunday, Pastor Chris Chadwick presents the case for an "Eternal Portfolio" found in 2 Corinthians 9. Through faithful expositional preaching, we explore the biblical principles of stewardship, the necessity of organized giving for global evangelism, and the spiritual law of sowing and reaping.

Money can buy resources, but it cannot buy spiritual power or the souls of men. In this brief devotional following the Faith Promise commitment service, Pastor Chris Chadwick challenges the church to go beyond transactional giving and engage in the vital work of intercessory prayer. While financial support is necessary, the true battle for global evangelism is won on our knees. Through faithful expositional preaching, this message outlines four specific, biblical requests we should make on behalf of our missionaries: that they would have opportunities to share the Gospel, boldness to speak the truth, that the Word would have free course, and that they would be delivered from persecution.Chapters: 0:00:00 - Introduction: Things Money Can't Buy0:02:18 - The Harvest is Great but Laborers are Few0:05:00 - Pray for Opportunities to Share the Gospel0:07:00 - Pray for Boldness to Speak the Mystery of Christ0:09:40 - Pray for the Word of God to Have Free Course0:12:00 - Pray for Deliverance from Persecution0:13:30 - Conclusion: Using the Missionary MagnetPlease share this video with your friends and encourage them to learn more at:www.canyonridgebaptist.comDid you accept Christ as your Savior today?

One decision can set in motion a series of events that changes the course of history, and for the Christian, a life lived by faith has eternal consequences. In this Sunday evening message, Pastor Zane Garza delivers faithful expositional preaching from Hebrews 11, focusing on the life of Abraham—the father of the faithful. True faith is more than just a belief; it is a surrender of the will that calls us to leave the known for the unknown, to surrender our present comforts to God, and to trust Him completely with our future. Whether you are facing a call to step out of your comfort zone, struggling with materialism, or holding onto plans for your future, this sermon challenges every believer to surrender their will to the Lord and attempt great things for His glory.Chapters: 0:00:00 - Introduction: Newton's Third Law and Decisions0:04:46 - The Example of Abraham: Father of the Faithful0:06:14 - Faith Surrenders the Known for the Unknown0:07:30 - Every Christian is Called to Live by Faith0:09:40 - William Carey: Expect Great Things, Attempt Great Things0:12:40 - Stepping Out of the Comfort Zone0:17:07 - Obedience Before Blessing0:20:40 - Faith Surrenders the Present to God0:23:45 - The Power of Accountability in the Mission0:28:00 - Holding the Ropes for Those Who Go0:29:20 - Living in Anticipation of Eternity0:31:45 - Faith Surrenders the Future to God0:33:00 - The Testing of Faith: Offering Isaac0:36:00 - Personal Testimony: Surrendering the Future Fostering Brian0:40:00 - Trusting God with the Unknown0:41:30 - Conclusion: A Call to SurrenderPlease share this video with your friends and encourage them to learn more at:www.canyonridgebaptist.comDid you accept Christ as your Savior today?

In a world often divided by hatred and prejudice, Jesus Christ models a radically different perspective in John chapter 4. While the Jews and Samaritans held deep-seated animosity toward one another, Jesus intentionally traveled through Samaria to reach a single outcast woman at Jacob's Well. In this message, Pastor Chris Chadwick delivers faithful expositional preaching on what it means to possess Heaven's mindset. Discover how to move beyond the skewed priorities of physical comfort and cultural bias to find true sustenance in doing the will of God. This sermon challenges every believer to lift their eyes, see the fields that are white unto harvest, and surrender their rights to the Savior who offers living water to a thirsty world.Chapters: 0:00:00 - Introduction: The Hundred Hour War and Human Hatred0:02:18 - The Historical Animosity Between Jews and Samaritans0:04:40 - Jesus Must Needs Go Through Samaria0:06:50 - The Divine Appointment at Jacob's Well0:08:44 - Breaking Cultural Barriers for the Gospel0:10:50 - Understanding Living Water vs Physical Water0:13:30 - Yielding to God Ordained Conversations0:16:18 - The Disciples Skewed Priorities0:19:00 - Spiritual Sustenance: Meat the World Knows Not Of0:23:40 - The Distraction of Modern Life and Missed Opportunities0:26:45 - Heavens Mindset: Doing the Will of God0:29:45 - Training Like an Athlete for the Spiritual Race0:33:40 - Debunking the Myth of Needing a Special Call to Serve0:39:20 - The Harvest is Ready Now0:46:25 - The Quiet Claim Deed: Surrendering All to GodPlease share this video with your friends and encourage them to learn more at:www.canyonridgebaptist.comDid you accept Christ as your Savior today?

In this special missions emphasis service, Pastor Chris Chadwick presents a compelling case for Faith Promise Missions giving, described as a strategic way to fuel world evangelism. Drawing from the powerful example of the Macedonian churches in 2 Corinthians 8, who gave liberally out of their deep poverty and joy, this message explores the scriptural basis for supporting the spread of the Gospel beyond our local community. Through faithful expositional preaching, discover how God can increase your capacity to give through unexpected income, decreased expenses, or a call to personal sacrifice. This sermon challenges every believer to consider their role in the Great Commission, whether by faithfully giving to send others or by answering the call to go themselves.Chapters: 0:00:00 - Introduction: A Fireside Chat on Missions0:01:48 - The Example of Macedonia: Joy in Deep Poverty0:10:47 - What is Faith Promise Missions Giving?0:12:53 - The Scriptural Basis for Missions Giving0:18:17 - Who Should Give?

Have you ever considered that where you choose to sit on a Sunday could impact your spiritual growth and the lives of those around you? In this message from the series on the Practical Theology of Church Life, Pastor Chris Chadwick challenges the consumer mindset that often creeps into the local church. Instead of asking what we can get, we are encouraged to ask what we can give. This sermon explores how practical decisions, like seating, can transform us from passive observers into active participants who sing with conviction, serve others by making room for guests, and submit to the authority of the Word. Discover how a simple change in perspective can deepen your walk with God and strengthen the church family through faithful expositional preaching and practical application.Chapters: 0:00:00 - The Practical Theology of Church Life0:04:10 - Consumer Christianity vs Contributing Christianity0:08:24 - Sit Where You Can Sing0:14:42 - Avoiding the Foyer of the Scornful0:18:00 - Encouraging the Preacher with Your Presence0:24:43 - Sit Where You Can Serve0:31:00 - The Strategic Importance of Seating0:36:58 - The Thirty Second Rule for Guests0:40:55 - Sit Where You Can Submit0:46:50 - The Danger of DistractionPlease share this video with your friends and encourage them to learn more at:www.canyonridgebaptist.comDid you accept Christ as your Savior today?

In the final message of this series on the Ten Commandments, Pastor Chris Chadwick confronts the hidden and dangerous sin of covetousness found in Exodus 20:17. Unlike murder or theft, which are outwardly visible, covetousness is a silent killer that festers in the heart, destroying our contentment and leading to spiritual ruin. Through faithful expositional preaching, this sermon exposes how the desire for more—whether it be possessions, status, or a different life circumstances—is actually idolatry that seeks satisfaction outside of God. Discover the biblical cure for a covetous heart found in 1 Timothy 6 and learn how godliness with contentment is truly great gain.Chapters: 0:00:00 - Conclusion of the Ten Commandments Series0:04:45 - God Alone Has the Power to Deliver0:09:00 - The Tenth Commandment: Thou Shalt Not Covet0:11:55 - The Silence of Covetousness0:17:00 - The Silent Killer: Comparing to Pancreatic Cancer0:18:20 - The Seriousness of Envy: Biblical Examples0:25:45 - Modern Examples: Cars, Debt, and Appearances0:33:10 - Covetousness Stifles Generosity and Tithing0:36:30 - The Danger of Coveting a Different Life or Location0:42:30 - The Solution: Godliness with Contentment0:49:20 - The Monkey Trap Illustration0:51:15 - ConclusionPlease share this video with your friends and encourage them to learn more at:www.canyonridgebaptist.comDid you accept Christ as your Savior today?

Everyone at some point in life needs a chance to start over. Whether we call it a mulligan in golf, a re-rack in billiards, or a pivot in business, the desire for a clean slate is a universal human experience. In this moving sermon from Fresh Start Sunday 2026, Pastor Chris Chadwick explores the life of David—a man after God's own heart who nevertheless fell into egregious sin. Through faithful expositional preaching, we see how David’s path from abdicated responsibility to adultery and murder left him in a year-long state of joyless hiding. Discover how God uses the confrontation of His Word to lead us to genuine confession and why the precious blood of Jesus Christ is the only source of a truly fresh start, restoring fellowship and joy to any heart that humbly seeks His mercy.Chapters: 0:00:00 - Introduction: Everyone Needs a Do-Over0:01:53 - Why and How God Gives a Clean Slate0:04:57 - David: A Man After God's Own Heart0:06:50 - The Idealized View vs. The Reality of David’s Life0:08:43 - David's Great Fall: Second Samuel 110:09:39 - Abandoning Purpose: Staying Home from War0:11:32 - Focus on Desires: The Lingering Look at Bathsheba0:13:00 - The Tangled Web: Adultery and the Murder of Uriah0:14:42 - The Difficulty of Stopping Sin Once It Starts0:15:39 - Parallels for Today: Apathy and Casualness Toward God0:17:15 - The Confrontation: Nathan the Prophet’s Message0:19:13 - David’s Anger and the Sentence of Death0:20:20 - Seeking Fresh Grace: Psalm 510:21:05 - A Plea for Forgiveness and Blotting Out Sin0:22:42 - The Necessity of Acknowledging Sin0:24:43 - A Prayer for Restoration: Purge Me with Hyssop0:25:57 - The Loss of Laughter: Praying for Joy and Gladness0:27:31 - Reliance on a Gracious and Forgiving God0:28:43 - Conclusion: Accepting the Savior for a New BeginningPlease share this video with your friends and encourage them to learn more at:www.canyonridgebaptist.comDid you accept Christ as your Savior today?

James 5:13-20 provides a roadmap for the Christian life, teaching believers how to respond to emotional affliction with petition and how to celebrate joy with corporate praise.

In a world consumed by the buzzword of affordability, it is easy for the Christian to fall into the trap of anxiety. In this message, Assistant Pastor Zane Gars delivers powerful expositional preaching from the Sermon on the Mount, challenging us to evaluate who our master truly is. Jesus’ command to take no thought for our life is not a suggestion; it is a call to realize that our security is never found in our circumstances, but only in our Creator. By looking at the birds of the air and the lilies of the field, we are reminded that the God who provides for the least of His creation is the same Heavenly Father who knows our needs and has given us a mission far greater than mere survival.Chapters:0:00:00 - Introduction to the Sermon on the Mount0:02:15 - The Buzzword of Affordability and Modern Anxiety0:05:30 - Historical Context of Roman Occupation and Scarcity0:08:45 - The Sin of Distrusting God’s Providence0:11:00 - Defining Worry as Mental and Emotional Strangulation0:14:15 - Point One Don’t Worry Because Your Creator Gave You a Purpose0:17:30 - The Meaning of Life Knowing and Enjoying God0:21:00 - Point Two Don’t Worry Because Your Creator Gave You Worth0:24:30 - Lessons from the Birds and the Lilies0:28:15 - The Contrast Between Faith and Worry0:32:00 - Point Three Don’t Worry Because God is Strong0:35:45 - The Difference Between Believers and Pagans0:39:30 - Seeking First the Kingdom and His Righteousness0:43:00 - Patterning Your Life After the Word of God0:46:15 - Focus on God Today Not Tomorrow0:48:00 - Conclusion and Invitation to Trust ChristPlease share this video with your friends and encourage them to learn more at:www.canyonridgebaptist.comDid you accept Christ as your Savior today?

As we stand on the threshold of 2026, it is natural to look back at the past year and evaluate our walk with Jesus. In this challenging message, Pastor Zane Garza provides faithful expositional preaching on a vital section of the Sermon on the Mount, focusing on what it means to truly treasure the things of God. Jesus presents us with a clear choice: will we invest our lives in temporal earthly treasures that decay and can be stolen, or will we lay up eternal treasures in heaven? By examining the function of our spiritual eyes and the impossibility of serving two masters, this sermon calls every believer to set their heart in heaven by serving God alone.Chapters:0:00:00 - Introduction and Prayer for the Chadwick Family0:01:48 - Reflecting on 2025 and Looking Forward to 20260:04:23 - Review of the Sermon on the Mount0:06:50 - Righteousness Through Christ Alone0:08:52 - Contrasting Earthly and Heavenly Rewards0:10:13 - Scripture Reading: Matthew 6:19-240:12:53 - What This Text Does Not Mean: Poverty vs. Spirituality0:16:51 - Treasures Location: Earth vs. Heaven0:18:46 - Why Where You Treasure Matters0:19:54 - Treasures Durability: Moth, Rust, and Thieves0:22:25 - Insider Trading Knowledge from the Creator0:24:43 - The Importance of Spiritual Vision0:25:57 - The Eyes Function: Giving Light to the Body0:26:50 - Personal Illustration: Getting Dressed in the Dark0:27:31 - Naval Illustration: Diving in Pitch Blackness0:29:57 - The Eyes Focus: A Generous vs. Evil Eye0:31:30 - Money as a Barometer of Spiritual Condition0:33:41 - The Blessing of a Generous Soul0:34:42 - Who We Must Serve: Slaves and Masters0:36:09 - The Difference Between an Employee and a Slave0:37:31 - The Impossible Compromise of Two Masters0:39:46 - The Frustration of Divided Allegiance0:42:30 - Putting God First for a Fruitful Life0:43:56 - Choosing Your Master for 20260:45:51 - Practical Application: Daily Time in the Word0:46:50 - Accessing 2026 Bible Reading PlansPlease share this video with your friends and encourage them to learn more at:[www.canyonridgebaptist.com](https://www.canyonridgebaptist.com)Did you accept Christ as your Savior today?

Christmas is more than just a holiday; it is a time to reflect on the most important event in human history: the incarnation of Jesus Christ. While news stories about lost pets or changing interest rates might grab our attention, the account found in Luke chapter two is truly good news for every person who has ever lived. In this message, Pastor Chris Chadwick provides powerful expositional preaching on the birth of Christ, moving from the political and personal challenges faced by Mary and Joseph to the glorious announcement made to despised shepherds in a field. Discover how the "mega" joy promised by the angels offers a sustained peace with God that transcends human happiness and provides the only resolution for our greatest spiritual need.Chapters: 0:00:00 - Introduction: The Joy of the Christmas Season 0:01:03 - A Christmas Miracle: The Story of Athena 0:04:31 - Good News for the Entire World 0:05:51 - A Serious Challenge: The Decree of Caesar Augustus 0:08:24 - Political and Personal Challenges for Joseph and Mary 0:10:20 - The Grueling Journey from Nazareth to Bethlehem 0:13:58 - Great with Child: The Final Days of the Journey 0:15:20 - An Understated Victory: No Room in the Inn 0:17:39 - The Humble Circumstances of the King of Kings 0:19:48 - Unknown Worshipers: The Despised Shepherds 0:20:53 - A Message for the Shepherds: The Glory of the Lord 0:23:41 - Fear Not: A Message of Apprehension Turned to Joy 0:25:39 - Good Tidings of Great Joy for All People 0:26:40 - The Difference Between Joy and Happiness 0:28:55 - A Message of Salvation: Born Unto You 0:31:39 - Personal Hope in a Pain-Filled World 0:34:52 - A Multitude of Heavenly Hosts: Glory to God 0:35:48 - Peace on Earth: Reconciliation Between God and Man 0:38:51 - Don't Just Try Jesus: Repent and Submit 0:41:00 - Have You Responded to His Love?Please share this video with your friends and encourage them to learn more at:www.canyonridgebaptist.comDid you accept Christ as your Savior today?

While the Resurrection is arguably the most important event in the Bible, the Incarnation of Christ—God manifested in the flesh—is of equal, incalculable importance. In this Christmas message, Pastor Chris Chadwick provides an expositional view of Luke 2:21-39, exploring the deep significance of Jesus' birth, the piety of his young parents, and the prophetic declarations of Simeon and Anna in the temple. This message reveals why the "cornerstone" that bears the weight of our salvation came as a baby wrapped in "swaddling clothes" (grave clothes), and challenges every person to decide whether Jesus will be the stone they trip over or the one they stand on.Chapters: 0:00:00 - Introduction and Invitation to Christmas Services 0:01:59 - The Incalculable Importance of Christ's Resurrection (1 Corinthians 15) 0:04:12 - The Equal Importance of Christ's Incarnation 0:05:39 - Understanding the Incarnation: Fully God, Truly Man 0:07:58 - The Astronomical Probability of Christ Fulfilling Prophecy 0:11:06 - The Piety of Jesus' Parents 0:12:47 - Young People and Passionate Devotion to God 0:15:02 - The Circumcision and Purification Ceremony 0:16:35 - The Redemption Offering and the Reality of Sin 0:19:54 - You Are a Sinner in Need of a Savior 0:22:52 - The Prayer of Simeon in the Temple 0:25:57 - Simeon's Prophecy: Salvation for All People 0:29:43 - The Fall and Rising Again of Many in Israel 0:31:16 - The Prophecy of Anna the Prophetess 0:34:39 - Anna Confirms the Messiah Has Come 0:37:05 - Jesus: The Savior or the Judge 0:38:43 - The Cornerstone in Swaddling Clothes (Grave Clothes) 0:41:04 - Jesus is the Stone: Trip Over Him or Stand On HimPlease share this video with your friends and encourage them to learn more at: www.canyonridgebaptist.com Did you accept Christ as your Savior today?

In this continuation of the Sermon on the Mount, Pastor Garza turns our attention to Matthew 6:1-18, where Jesus confronts the danger of counterfeit religion and reveals what God truly values: a sincere heart over outward performance. Jesus warns His followers to "take heed" of hypocrisy by examining their motives in three crucial religious duties: giving to the poor (alms), praying, and fasting. This powerful expositional preaching challenges us to seek God's approval and a greater reward, rather than the temporary praise of people, ensuring our spiritual disciplines are driven by genuine love and desire for relationship with Him.Chapters: 0:00:00 - Introduction and Context of the Sermon on the Mount 0:01:42 - The Problem of Counterfeit Gifts and Counterfeit Faith 0:03:59 - The Greater Righteousness in the Sermon on the Mount 0:07:44 - Reading Matthew 6:1-8 and 16-18 0:10:07 - What Jesus is Saying: Take Heed 0:10:52 - Defining a Hypocrite: Not a Person Who Fails 0:13:51 - Hypocrisy in Western Christianity and Social Media 0:15:39 - The Temptation to Seek Man’s Approval Over God’s 0:18:24 - True Followers Must Live for God's Approval 0:19:43 - How Jesus Says It: Three Religious Practices 0:20:07 - Alms: Giving to the Poor 0:21:05 - Is All Giving Supposed to Be Anonymous? 0:22:42 - The Contrast: Barnabas vs. Ananias and Sapphira 0:25:21 - Prayer: When You Pray 0:26:47 - The Necessity of Private Prayer 0:28:13 - Overcoming Insecurity in Prayer 0:30:52 - Fasting: Look Normal When You Fast 0:33:51 - Testing Our Motives: What Do You Live For? 0:34:55 - Why Jesus Says This: A Personal Relationship With God 0:36:03 - The Reward of Serving God in Secret 0:37:37 - God Sees and is a Rewarder 0:38:59 - Conclusion: Test Your MotivesPlease share this video with your friends and encourage them to learn more at: www.canyonridgebaptist.com Did you accept Christ as your Savior today?

Join Pastor Burnie Lund as he makes a compelling, scriptural case for the importance of sabbaticals and solitude, especially for pastoral staff who carry the constant emotional and spiritual burdens of their flock. Drawing from the Sabbath command in Exodus 20 and the Lord's invitation to "rest a while" in Mark 6, this message defines what a sabbatical truly is—a renewal leave—and explores how establishing a biblical rhythm of rest and reflection is an essential act of obedience and worship to God, not just a physical escape. Learn about the church's sabbatical policy, what the pastor will be focusing on for renewal, and how the church body can move forward with the given vision during the time of leave. This is a message of confession, encouragement, and a challenge to align the rhythms of our own lives more closely with God's design.Chapters:0:00:00 - Introduction and Message Focus0:01:14 - A Need for a Break: The Courtesy Clerk Story0:03:41 - The Need for a Pastoral Sabbatical0:05:27 - Defining the Concept: From Sabbath to Sabbatical0:07:54 - Defining Leave, Vacation, and Sabbatical0:09:48 - Clarifying the Purpose of a Sabbatical: Renewal and Rest0:11:42 - Corporations Offering Sabbaticals0:12:00 - The Four Reasons for the Sabbath: Meditation, Repentance, Deloading, Gratitude0:15:47 - Biblical Patterns of Sabbaths (Weekly, Seven-Year, Jubilee)0:17:15 - A Call to Examine Our Own Rhythms of Rest0:21:00 - The Foundation of the Command: God’s Creation Pattern0:22:36 - What is the Canyon Ridge Sabbatical Policy?0:24:58 - What Will Pastor Do on Sabbatical?

In this convicting message from the Ten Commandments series, Pastor Chris Chadwick dives into the Ninth Commandment, "Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour" (Exodus 20:16). Through in-depth expositional preaching, this sermon expands the definition of bearing false witness beyond a legal setting to include the devastating and common sins of lying, exaggeration, innuendo, slander, self-centered flattery, cheating, misrepresentation, and gossip. We are reminded that God hates a lying tongue and that obedience to His commands brings clarity, holiness, and freedom from shame for the redeemed believer.Chapters: 0:00:00 - Introduction: The Purpose of the Ten Commandments 0:03:02 - The Law is Holy, Just, and Good 0:06:21 - The Ninth Commandment: Thou Shalt Not Bear False Witness 0:09:30 - The Seven Things the Lord Hates (Proverbs 6:16-19) 0:11:08 - Thinking Deeply About the Sin of Lying 0:12:15 - Breaking the Commandment by What We Say (Knowingly Saying What is Not True) 0:14:26 - Lying to Harm Another's Good Name (or Your Own) 0:16:51 - Lying by Exaggeration and Bragging 0:21:20 - Lying by Innuendo and Implication 0:23:09 - Lying by Slander: Doing the Work of the Devil 0:27:07 - Lying by Self-Centered Flattery 0:34:25 - Breaking the Commandment by What We Do (Cheating) 0:35:58 - Cheating: Infidelity and Pornography 0:37:19 - Misrepresentation (Calling in Sick) 0:42:01 - Bearing False Witness by Gossip and Whispers 0:46:17 - Being Unjustly Silent 0:47:58 - Our Biggest Lie: Saying We're Right with God When We're Not 0:50:57 - Time of Contemplation and Call to RepentanceWe invite you to join us and listen to more messages centered on the Word of God!

In this message continuing the study through the practical Book of James, Pastor Chris Chadwick provides an antidote to the temptations common in the Christian life, such as pride, fighting, and trusting in riches. Focusing on James 5:7-15, this expositional preaching challenges believers to cultivate patience and integrity as the primary means of fighting the spiritual battles of the heart. We are warned against the dangers of being in a hurry, harboring grudges, making foolish oaths, and continually lying, as these character traits may be evidence of an unsaved heart.Chapters: 0:00:00 - Introduction and Review of Temptation in James 0:01:21 - Temptation 1: Tested Faith (James 1:2) 0:04:36 - Temptation 2: Hearing and Not Doing (James 1:22) 0:05:39 - Temptation 3: Respect of Persons/Showing Favorites (James 2:1) 0:06:21 - Temptation 4: Faith Without Works is Dead (James 2:14) 0:08:18 - Temptation 5: Seeking Prominence and the Power of the Tongue (James 3:1) 0:12:12 - Temptation 6: Fighting and Lust (James 4:1) 0:12:47 - The Antidote to Temptation: Patience 0:13:58 - Be Patient Like the Husbandman/Farmer 0:15:30 - Be Patient and Establish Your Hearts for the Lord's Coming 0:17:50 - Grudge Not: Beware of Bitterness 0:19:25 - The Antidote to Temptation: Integrity and Honesty 0:20:41 - The Danger of Foolish Oaths and Lying 0:22:24 - Lying is a Character Trait of the Devil 0:24:50 - Integrity as a High Standard for Believers 0:27:03 - Facing Conviction and Bridling the Tongue 0:31:47 - Progressive Sanctification and Transformation 0:33:43 - Closing InvitationWe invite you to join us and listen to more messages centered on the Word of God!
