    https://www.maynardvillefellowship.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/Carr-10-18-26.mp3 In this passage the apostles’ courageous obedience exposes the futility of the Sanhedrin’s attempts to suppress the gospel and preserve its authority. The council’s growing confusion and frustration reveal that no...

  2. Acts 5:17-21 Jealousy, Justice, and Jurisdiction

    https://www.maynardvillefellowship.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/Carr-10-11-26.mp3 The Sanhedrin attempt to suppress the apostolic witness because they are jealous of Christ’s growing kingdom. But God overturns their judgment and reasserts his authority in the very place where they believe...

    https://www.maynardvillefellowship.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/Carr-10-4-26.mp3 This passage presents the judgment that terrifies, the evidence that excites, and the God who calls. As God’s holiness drives away casual association and His power draws the attention of the crowds, Christ…

    https://www.maynardvillefellowship.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/Cooke-9-27-26.mp3 We usually think courage means standing your ground. But what if faithfulness requires you to run? In Matthew 24:15–21, Jesus prepares His disciples for a moment when everything they had been taught to defend—the...

  5. Matthew 24:15 The Sign of the End of the Age: The Abomination of Desolation

    https://www.maynardvillefellowship.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/Cooke-9-20-26.mp3 For generations, the “abomination of desolation” seemed easy to identify. Antiochus desecrated the temple. Sacrifices stopped. The sanctuary was left desolate. Daniel’s words appeared to have been fulfilled. Then...

  6. Matthew 24:14b The Birth Pangs of the Kingdom: From Testimony to Judgment

    https://www.maynardvillefellowship.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/Cooke-9-13-26.mp3 Israel’s rulers condemned Jesus. God raised Him from the dead. Before Jerusalem faced judgment, the nations would hear heaven’s verdict: the crucified Jesus is Lord. Join us as we trace the apostles’ witness from...

  7. Matthew 24:14 — The Birth Pangs of the Kingdom: From Persecution to Proclamation

    https://www.maynardvillefellowship.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/Cooke-09-09-2026.mp3 Is Matthew 24:14 a missionary countdown—a promise that Christ will return once the gospel reaches every modern nation, language, and people group? That familiar interpretation misses both Jesus’ words and their...

  8. Acts 4:36-5:11 Where God Dwells

    https://www.maynardvillefellowship.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/Carr-8-30-26.mp3 This passage reminds us that the God who dwells among His covenant people is holy. Through the judgment of Ananias and Sapphira, we see that God’s presence demands sincere obedience and holy fear from those who…

    https://www.maynardvillefellowship.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/Carr-8-23-26.mp3 This passage reveals a new covenant community united around the risen Christ even as the old covenant order fractures around them.

    https://www.maynardvillefellowship.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/Carr-08-09-2026.mp3 What happens when those entrusted with authority become enemies of justice? Acts 4:18–22 shows that authority is good but never absolute, and when human authority conflicts with Christ, Christians must recognize...

  12. Acts 4:13-17 Well, Well, Well, How the Turntables…

    https://www.maynardvillefellowship.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/Carr-8-2-26.mp3 What happens when an opponent can no longer win the argument? They resort to ad hominem, suppression, and intimidation. Luke shows us that is exactly what happened with the Sanhedrin court with Peter and John.

  13. Matthew 24:10–13 — The Birth Pangs of the Kingdom: For the Purpose of Purification

    https://www.maynardvillefellowship.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/Cooke-7-26-26.mp3 In Matthew 24:10–13, Jesus reveals that persecution wasn't merely something the early church endured—it was something Christ used. The birth pangs preceding Jerusalem's destruction would expose false disciples,...

  14. Matthew 24:9 The Birth Pangs of the Kingdom: The Persecution of the Church

    https://www.maynardvillefellowship.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/Cooke-7-19-26.mp3 Jerusalem was headed for judgment—but Jesus’ next warning was even more personal. Before the Temple fell, His disciples would be arrested, beaten, & killed, at the hands of Jews and Gentiles alike because they...

  15. Matthew 24:4-8- What the Sign Isn’t: Three Distractions the Disciples Must Avoid

    https://www.maynardvillefellowship.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/Cooke-7-12-26.mp3 Wars. False messiahs. Famines. Pestilences. Earthquakes. For generations, Christians have pointed to these events as signs that the end of the world must be near. But Jesus says something very different: “See that...

  16. Matthew 24:3- The Unsettled Dilemma: When Will These Things Happen?

    https://www.maynardvillefellowship.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/Cooke-7-5-26.mp3 Jesus has declared that the Temple will be utterly destroyed. The disciples know what is coming.

    https://www.maynardvillefellowship.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/Carr-06-28-26.mp3 Peter and John had the full weight of the political and religious apparatus stacked against them.

  18. Job 1:1-5 A Job 1 Man

    https://www.maynardvillefellowship.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/Carr-06-21-26.mp3 We all know what it means to be a Proverbs 31 or Titus 2 woman. Hear Pastor Carr’s charge for men to pursue the standard of a Job 1 man.

    https://www.maynardvillefellowship.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/Carr-6-14-26.mp3 Why did the Sadducees rush to confront Peter and John after the lame man was healed? What can we learn from this encounter for our current cultural context? Find out why this passage is so relevant to our current...

  20. Acts 3:17-26 Ignorance Is No Excuse

    https://www.maynardvillefellowship.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/Carr-6-7-26.mp3 Many read the language of verse seventeen as Peter softening his tone toward the people. Pastor Carr demonstrates why the context of the passage actually works against interpreting Peter’s tone as conciliatory.

  21. Proverbs 3:11-12-The Salvific Effects of Discipline- Brother Caleb Stomberg

    https://www.maynardvillefellowship.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/Stomberg-05-31-26.mp3 Throughout the book of Proverbs we see two distinct pulls working on men; the enticement of the wicked, and the voice of wisdom. Born in sin, all men need to be corrected and trained into wisdom. Those who…

  23. Matthew 24:1-2 The Unceremonious Departure

    https://www.maynardvillefellowship.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/Cooke-5-24-26.mp3 Matthew 24 is one of the most misunderstood passages in the Bible, often treated as a detached prophecy about events far removed from its immediate context. But before Jesus speaks of wars, tribulation, signs, and...

  24. Survey of Joshua

    https://www.maynardvillefellowship.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/Carr-Survey-Joshua-5-20-26.mp3 This book is about more than simple military conquest. It is a book of Israel’s need for covenant renewal and God’s overwhelming covenant faithfulness.

  25. Matthew 23:37-39 The Sentence: The Desolation of the Temple

    https://www.maynardvillefellowship.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/Cooke-5-17-26.mp3 In Matthew 23:37–39, Jesus brings His final public indictment against Jerusalem to its devastating conclusion. The city of peace had become a city of blood. The city that was supposed to receive the prophets...

    https://www.maynardvillefellowship.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/Carr-Survey-Numbers-5-6-26.mp3 Many people overlook the beauty and hidden value of the book of Numbers. Listen as Pastor Carr shows how God formed his holy army, replaced it, and was still true to his promise.

    https://www.maynardvillefellowship.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/Cooke-5-3-26-1.mp3 We tend to think of patience & grace as basically synonyms. But biblically speaking, that is not always the case. Sometimes God delays judgment in order to display mercy. But sometimes He delays judgment in order...

    https://www.maynardvillefellowship.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/Carr-4-26-26.mp3 Patterns matter. They inform what an author is doing and saying in a book.
