Forever Faithful, Genesis 11:10–32

Genesis 11:10–32 records the genealogy from Shem to Abram, but this passage is far more than a list of names. It is a testimony that God is faithfully preserving His word and accomplishing His redemptive plan, even when the world is marked by rebellion, corruption, and idolatry.

This sermon encourages believers to trust the Lord’s faithfulness throughout history, despite man’s corruption, and according to His enduring word. God has been faithful, God is faithful, and God will forever be faithful.

The Deadly Pride of Man, Genesis 11:1-9

The Tower of Babel is more than a childhood story about a tall tower and confused languages. Genesis 11:1–9 reveals the deadly pride of man: the desire to make a name for ourselves, live apart from dependence on God, and assert our will over His.

In this sermon, Ben Smith, Sr. examines the pride of ability, the pride of self-sufficiency, and the pride of mastery, calling believers to reject the illusion of independence and humble themselves before the sovereign God.

God of All Nations, Genesis 10

Genesis 10 may seem like a chapter that can be passed over quickly, but it bears profound witness to the sovereignty of God. The nations of the earth are neither random nor outside His rule. Behind every family line, every people group, and every generation stands the God who created all things and governs history according to His will.

In “God of All Nations,” we are reminded that human power is fleeting, but God’s purposes never fail. The same God who governed the nations in Genesis is still accomplishing His redemptive will today, and in Christ He has made salvation known to people from every tribe, tongue, and nation.

Knowing Truth From Lies, 1 Kings 18:20-46

We live in a world where truth is often overshadowed by personal belief and cultural pressure. In 1 Kings 18, Elijah confronts that confusion head-on, calling God’s people to stop wavering and to recognize the one true God.

Through the dramatic events on Mount Carmel, this sermon reminds us that sincerity cannot make lies true, and that when God reveals Himself, we are called to respond with repentance, obedience, and faithful worship.

Ransomed by His Blood, 1 Peter 1:17–21

What does it mean to be ransomed by God? In 1 Peter 1:17–21, we are reminded that our redemption was not purchased with silver or gold, but with the precious blood of Christ. This truth reshapes how we live, how we hope, and how we approach God.

Because the ransom has been paid, believers can live with confidence—not in themselves, but in the finished work of Christ, the eternal will of God, and the hope secured through the resurrection.

Righteously Responding to Sin, Genesis 9:18–29

How you respond to sin reveals your heart toward God. Genesis 9:18–29 shows that even the most faithful can fall, but the greater issue is how we respond when sin is exposed.

This sermon calls believers to recognize the danger and shame of sin while resting in the grace that sustains and preserves God’s people.

Amazing Grace, Genesis 9:1–17

After the flood, God spoke to Noah and established a covenant that would shape the future of the world. In Genesis 9:1–17, God reveals His grace through the fulfillment of His eternal will, the provision of His law, and the patience of His covenant promise.

Even in a world still corrupted by sin, the rainbow stands as a reminder that God’s grace continues to restrain judgment and provide hope.

Are You Troubled or a Troubler? 1 Kings 18:1–21

When the truth of God confronts us, it always demands a response. We will either be troubled by it or transformed by it. In 1 Kings 18, Ahab blames Elijah for Israel’s suffering, yet the real problem is his own rebellion against God.

This sermon calls you to examine your heart and choose: will you resist the truth, or will you stand firmly on it, even when it costs you?

Holy Worship, Genesis 8:20–22

Noah stepped off the ark into a changed world marked by judgment and grace. His first act was worship—an altar built to the God who saves. Genesis 8:20–22 shows that true worship arises when we remember God, acknowledge our sin, and rest in His sovereign grace. This message calls believers to offer their lives wholly to Him.

Great is thy Faithfulness, Genesis 8:1-19

In Genesis 8, Noah spends more than a year in the ark with no visible sign that life will ever return to normal. Yet Scripture shows us that even when God seems silent, He is never absent. God remembers His people, encourages them with signs of His grace, and speaks His word to declare new beginnings. This message invites believers to trust the unwavering faithfulness of God in every season.
