The Harvest Podcast

We’re honored to have Pastor Doug Robertson with us as he shares a clear and encouraging message from God’s Word.

The Christian life is not a place to settle. It is a race to run. In this message, Paul reminds us that even he had not “arrived,” but continued pressing forward in his pursuit of Christ. This passage challenges us to examine our own walk. Are we still growing, or have we grown comfortable? You will be encouraged to leave the past behind, keep your focus on Christ, and take the next step forward in your faith. The race is not over. Keep pressing forward.

Nothing in this world compares to knowing Christ. In Philippians 3:1–11, Paul exposes the danger of trusting in religion, performance, and personal righteousness, and points us back to the only thing that truly saves. From his own life, he shows that everything once counted as gain is worthless compared to Christ. A clear call to stop trusting in what you have done and rest fully in what Christ has done.

Love for God requires guarding your heart. In this message, we walk through Scripture and see that loving God on purpose means letting go of the world, being honest about sin, and choosing obedience. Because the greatest danger is not losing battles, but losing affection for God.

Youth Pastor Daniel Neal preaches from 1 Corinthians 15 on the truth that changes everything, the resurrection of Jesus Christ. Because He lives, our hope is alive.

Christ was not part of Paul’s life. Christ was his life. In Philippians 1:19–21, we see the confidence, purpose, and perspective that led Paul to say, “For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain.”

Some people spend their whole lives chasing satisfaction and never find it. In this message from Ecclesiastes 2:1–17, we follow Solomon’s honest search through pleasure, success, and wealth, only to find that none of it was enough. What looked fulfilling on the surface left him empty on the inside. This message brings us face to face with a hard truth and a hopeful answer. Nothing in this world can satisfy the heart, but Jesus can.

When life feels overwhelming, where do you turn? Guest preacher Pastor Anthony Frazer shares a practical, biblical message on finding strength and stability in God.

Hardship doesn’t have the final word. God does. In this message from Philippians 1:12–18, we walk through Paul’s perspective from prison and discover how God uses difficult seasons to move His work forward. What looked like restriction became opportunity. What felt like loss became progress. This message will help you reframe your circumstances, trust God’s purpose, and see how Christ can be made known even in the hardest moments.

You can hear about God… and still never experience Him. In this message from Psalm 34:8, we’re challenged to move beyond observation and into real relationship. David’s invitation to “taste and see” calls us to trust God, depend on Him, and engage with Him personally. This message presses the question: are you just around spiritual things, or are you actually walking with God?

What does a gospel-centered church actually look like? In this message from Philippians 1:1–11, we slow down and lay the foundation for what God builds in His people. Before the commands, before the correction, Paul points us to something deeper… partnership in the gospel, confidence in God’s work, and growth that reflects Christ. This message walks through the beginning of Philippians and shows how real churches are formed through grace, sustained by God’s faithfulness, and strengthened through shared commitment to the gospel.

Psalm 116 is a Psalm of remembrance, rescue, and response. In this message, Daniel points us back to the moments when God met us in our need and reminds us that our love for Him should be rooted in what He has already done. As we reflect on salvation, forgiveness, and God’s ongoing faithfulness, we’re challenged to move beyond routine and into a deeper, more intentional relationship with Him. A simple but powerful reminder to love God not just with our words, but with our lives.

What does it actually look like to live out the gospel day to day? In this message, we walk through Philippians 2:12–16 and see that Paul is not calling us to work for salvation, but to live out what God has already done in us. This is where it gets real. Not just what we believe, but how we respond, how we speak, and how we live together. Because if God is truly working in us, it will show up. In our obedience. In our attitudes. In how we handle tension. And Paul makes it clear, a church that lives this way doesn’t blend in. It stands out. It shines. This message is a straightforward call to stop holding back and start living out what God has already worked into your life.

This was a Saturday night message, something we’ve never done before, preached just hours before a storm that brought 23 inches of snow. And honestly, it fit the message. Life doesn’t stay the same. It moves in seasons. In this message, we look at Elijah’s life and see how quickly things can shift, from strength to fear, from confidence to exhaustion. But through every season, God was still there. If you’ve been tired, discouraged, or just not seeing clearly right now, this message is a reminder that God doesn’t meet you just to leave you there. He meets you to restore you and move you forward.

It is easy to say we love God, but how do we actually know? In this message from Deuteronomy 6, we see that love for God is revealed in what we seek, what we obey, what we trust, and what we worship. This is a call to move beyond quick answers and live with intentional devotion, putting God first in everyday life.

Some burdens are not loud, but they are heavy. In this message from Psalm 55:22, we see that God does not ignore what we carry. He invites us to move it. David reminds us that the answer is not pretending the weight is gone, but placing it in the right hands. God may not remove every burden, but He promises to sustain us through it.

We spend a lot of life counting down to the next thing, but rarely stop to consider how we are living today. In this message from Psalm 90:12, we are reminded that life is brief and every day matters. Moses does not ask for more time, but for wisdom. This message calls us to live with awareness, apply truth to the heart, and stop wasting the days God has given us.

Unity is not built on personality, preference, or pressure. It flows from Christ. In this message from Philippians 2:1–5, we see how real unity grows when pride is put to death, our thinking is shaped by Scripture, and we submit to the mind of Christ. If the gospel has changed us, it will show in how we live and move forward together.

It is easy to get distracted, discouraged, or pulled off course. In this message, we are reminded to fix our focus back where it belongs. Not on circumstances, not on people, but on Jesus. This message calls us to lay aside what weighs us down and keep moving forward with endurance, looking unto Him.

In this message, our Youth Pastor Daniel Neal walks through the contrast between wisdom and foolishness and how our choices reveal what we truly value. This message challenges us to examine the direction of our lives and reminds us that real wisdom is found in following God’s Word, not our own understanding.

As we begin a new year, it is easy to focus on plans and direction. But before we talk about where we are going, we need to be clear on what holds us together. In Philippians 1:27, Paul brings it back to one priority. Live in a way that fits the gospel. This message looks at what that means as we live, stand, and move forward together.
