Some things in life don’t move when we ask them. Like Paul’s “thorn in the flesh” in 2 Corinthians 12, there are moments when we pray, plead, and believe—and yet the situation remains. But in that tension, God gives a promise that changes everything: “My grace is sufficient for you, for power is perfected in weakness.”In this second message from Education Pastor William Hunt—we learn how to faithfully navigate the realities we cannot control, fix, or escape. Life is unpredictable, hard seasons are inevitable, but God is unchanging. If you’re walking through something you didn’t choose and can’t change, this message is for you.Watch Corryton Live every Sunday at: https://corryton.online.church/

For centuries, God promised a Savior. From the moment sin entered the world in Genesis, Scripture pointed forward to a coming Redeemer—born of a woman, born of a virgin, descended from Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Judah, Jesse, and David.Then came 400 years of silence. No prophets. No new revelation. Just anticipation. But when the time was exactly right, heaven broke the silence. Angels appeared. A virgin conceived. A child was born in Bethlehem.In this message, Dr. Rocky Ramsey traces the incredible story of the incarnation of Jesus—the moment when the eternal Son of God stepped into human history. From ancient prophecies to the manger in Bethlehem, Scripture reveals that the birth of Jesus was not random—it was the fulfillment of God’s eternal plan.Do you have a question for Pastor Rocky?

Have you ever heard someone say, “God told me…”? Sometimes the phrase is sincere. But sometimes it’s used to justify decisions, gain influence, or avoid accountability.In this message, Dr. Rocky Ramsey examines the Third Commandment from Exodus 20:7 and explains why misusing God’s name is more serious than we often realize.Scripture warns that people can misuse God’s authority to impress others, gain power, or support their own desires. The Bible also reminds us that our hearts can deceive us and our thinking can be wrong. So how do we know what God is actually saying?The answer begins with the truth that God has already spoken through His Word. Instead of claiming divine authority for our own ideas, believers are called to humbly discern God’s will through Scripture, God’s character, wise counsel, and careful judgment.Do you have a question for Pastor Rocky?

Scripture teaches that no one has seen God the Father. He is invisible, immortal, dwelling in unapproachable light. Yet Jesus is the visible expression of the invisible God — the radiance of His glory and the exact representation of His nature.The invisible God has revealed Himself in Christ. When Jesus said, “Before Abraham was born, I AM,” He wasn’t making poetry — He was revealing identity. And that changes everythingDo you have a question for Pastor Rocky?

In this message, Dr. Rocky Ramsey examines God’s position on moral failure through both Old and New Testament passages. From the severe consequences of adultery in Leviticus to the clear New Testament condemnations of sexual immorality, the Biblical standard is consistent: God is holy, and His people — especially His leaders — are called to reflect that holiness.2 Samuel 12:14 reminds us that David’s sin gave God’s enemies a reason to blaspheme. Leadership failure always impacts the witness of the church.The New Testament raises the standard even higher. Elders must be above reproach, faithful in marriage, self-controlled, and respected by outsiders. Teachers incur stricter judgment. To whom much is given, much is required.The sermon also confronts difficult cultural realities: churches sometimes elevate gifting over godliness, misunderstand grace, reject Biblical accountability as legalism, and lose a healthy fear of God.This message calls the church back to reverence, repentance, and Biblical clarity — not to destroy fallen people, but to protect Christ’s name and the integrity of His church.Do you have a question for Pastor Rocky?

In this message, Dr. Rocky Ramsey walks through Scripture to show us who Jesus is: fully God, co-equal with the Father and the Holy Spirit, eternal, all-knowing, all-powerful—and yet completely submitted to the will of the Father.Jesus Himself said, “My food is to do the will of Him who sent Me and to accomplish His work”. That statement reveals not only His identity, but His heart. Through passages from John, Matthew, Luke, and Philippians, this sermon explores:• The divine nature of Christ• His perfect obedience to the Father• What His example teaches us about authority, humility, and serviceDo you have a question for Pastor Rocky?

In the final message of our five-part series on forgiveness, Dr. Rocky Ramsey teaches from Ephesians 4:32 and other key passages to show what it truly means to forgive others the way God has forgiven us.This message teaches forgiveness as letting go—judicially, psychologically, and relationally—and addresses common misconceptions that keep people stuck in pain, resentment, and spiritual distance from God.Do you have a question for Pastor Rocky?

Jesus’ view of Scripture leaves no room for doubt. He affirmed the Bible as prophetic, permanent, purposeful, perfect, and practical. He declared that not the smallest letter would pass away until all was accomplished.Dr. Rocky Ramsey explains that the Bible is both God’s written Word and the revelation of God’s Living Word. Jesus Christ is the fulfillment of Scripture, the source of Scripture, and the subject of Scripture. The written Word reveals who God is, declares God’s truth, leads us to God, and gives life.Scripture is not merely a religious text — it is God’s voice, carrying eternal authority and life-giving power. To honor Jesus is to honor His Word. And to know the Word rightly is to know Christ more deeply.Do you have a question for Pastor Rocky?

Comparison feels natural, but Scripture warns that it is spiritually dangerous.In this message, William Hunt exposes how comparison undermines contentment, joy, identity, and relationships. When we measure ourselves against others, we adopt a standard God never intended and lose sight of the unique calling He has placed on our lives.Comparison produces pride when we think we’re better and despair when we think we’re not enough. Both pull our eyes away from Christ and distort reality. This sermon calls us to examine our own work, run our own race, and find lasting contentment in God alone.If you struggle with envy, insecurity, or measuring your life against someone else’s, this message offers a better way forward.Watch Corryton Live every Sunday at: https://corryton.online.church/

Brennan Oaks walks us through God’s definition of goodness — not as an abstract idea, but as a way of life. God calls His people to do justice, love kindness, and walk humbly with Him.This sermon explores:• Why God alone defines what is good• What it truly means to do justice, not just talk about it• How kindness reflects the heart of God to the world• Why humility is essential to living out justice and mercy• How obedience to God’s design brings life and witnessWatch Corryton Live every Sunday at: https://corryton.online.church/

In this sermon, Dr. Rocky Ramsey explains what Christians believe about Scripture — not as theory, but as truth that works in the real world. The Bible is not merely inspirational; it is inspired. It is not flawed; it is inerrant. And it is not outdated; it is eternally relevant.God has given us a real Bible that really works in a real world. From the nature of God Himself to the way Scripture is properly interpreted, this message lays a foundation for understanding why the Word of God can be trusted — and how it should be handled with care and humility.Do you have a question for Pastor Rocky?

From the opening words of Scripture, God reveals Himself as more than we might expect. The Hebrew name “Elohim” is plural. God speaks using plural pronouns. The Angel of the Lord appears as God, yet distinct from God. The Spirit of God moves and speaks as one with God. And still, Scripture declares: “The Lord is one.”Dr. Rocky Ramsey walks us through the Old Testament foundations of the Trinity, then into the New Testament where the truth becomes unmistakably clear: the Father is God, Jesus is God, and the Holy Spirit is God — not three gods, but One.But this truth is more than doctrine. It explains reality itself. God exists eternally in perfect unity. Humanity was created to experience that same oneness — with God, with others, and within ourselves. Sin is what fractured that unity, bringing separation and brokenness. The mission of Christ is to restore what was lost.Do you have a question for Pastor Rocky?

Last week, we stood in awe of God’s greatness. This week, we go deeper.In Part Two of 'What Is God Like?', Dr. Rocky Ramsey continues unfolding the attributes of God — revealing not just what God is like, but why knowing Him rightly changes everything about how we live, trust, and worship.• God is all-knowing.• God is always present.• God is all-powerful.• God is sovereign.• God is faithful.• God never changes.• God is holy beyond comprehension.These are not abstract theological ideas — they are anchors for anxious hearts, clarity for confused minds, and strength for uncertain futures.Do you have a question for Pastor Rocky?

Every person is broken in different ways and degrees. Scripture is clear that all have sinned and continually need grace. But God’s forgiveness is not based on our effort; it is grounded in Christ’s sacrifice. Jesus bore the punishment we deserved, allowing God to remain both just and merciful.Dr. Rocky Ramsey explains that Christ now serves as our defense attorney in heaven, silencing every accusation. When we confess our sin — agreeing that God is right and committing to change — He faithfully forgives and restores fellowship.The message then turns to the breathtaking nature of God’s love. God knows everything about us — every thought, action, and motive — yet loves us fully. Our acceptance before Him rests entirely on Christ’s finished work, not our performance. Though sin can disrupt our fellowship with God, it can never break the relationship secured by Christ.Do you have a question for Pastor Rocky?

A right view of God is the foundation of a right view of life. In this sermon, Dr. Rocky Ramsey leads listeners through Isaiah 40:12–28 to encounter God as Scripture reveals Him — not as human imagination invents Him.The message begins by confronting a common mistake: trying to compare God to created things. Scripture declares God is incomprehensible — unlike anything else in existence (Isaiah 40:18). He is transcendent, exalted above the universe He spoke into being, measuring seas, naming stars, and ruling nations as though they were dust.Pastor Rocky then reveals further attributes: God is infinite, limited by nothing; eternal, existing outside time; self-existent, dependent on no origin; and self-sufficient, needing nothing beyond Himself. Each truth expands our understanding of God’s greatness while humbling human pride.When God is seen rightly, worship becomes deeper, trust becomes steadier, and fear loses its power.Do you have a question for Pastor Rocky?

Forgiveness is one of the most misunderstood doctrines in Christianity—especially when abuse is involved. In "Forgiving When Abused," Dr. Rocky Ramsey addresses the deep wounds caused not only by abuse itself, but by the misuse of Scripture that has often followed.This sermon emphasizes that freedom comes through truth—not denial. Dr. Rocky Ramsey identifies seven forms of abuse and confronts how passages on submission, obedience, and authority have been wrongly applied to protect abusers rather than the abused.By comparing misunderstood passages with clarifying Scripture (Isaiah 5:20; Proverbs 17:15), the sermon restores Biblical balance and moral clarity. God does not call evil good, nor does He require victims to endure harm to prove faithfulness.For those who were abused, the message affirms three essential truths: the abuse was not their fault, God did not cause it, and sinful people—not God—were responsible. Scripture acknowledges injustice and suffering, even when the righteous are harmed (Ecclesiastes 8:14).The sermon concludes with a compassionate, Biblical path toward freedom—one that includes acknowledging reality, grieving loss, releasing anger, and discerning whether reconciliation is wise or possible. Forgiveness, as Scripture defines it, is not about protecting abusers but freeing the wounded.Do you have a question for Pastor Rocky?

A right understanding of God is essential for a right understanding of life. In this sermon, Dr. Rocky Ramsey uses God's Word to present ten truths about God that are often misunderstood, ignored, or distorted.The sermon begins by grounding God’s love not in human worthiness, but in God’s unchanging nature (Romans 5:8). It clarifies that while God deeply desires relationship with us, He does not depend on us (Matthew 25:41). Scripture also shows that God allows the natural consequences of sin, yet faithfully rewards obedience (Galatians 6:7–8; Hebrews 11:6).Dr. Rocky Ramsey challenges the modern assumption that God’s primary goal is comfort or happiness. Instead, Scripture reveals that God is shaping character, producing endurance, and cultivating lasting joy (Romans 8:29; James 1:2–4; John 17:13). God is concerned with eternal outcomes more than temporary moments and calls His people to trust Him even when obedience is costly.The message concludes with a powerful reminder: God’s care is constant, even when it feels absent (Isaiah 49:15). These ten truths provide a biblical framework for understanding suffering, discipline, obedience, and hope—and invite listeners to see God as He truly is.Do you have a question for Pastor Rocky?

Forgiveness is one of the most misunderstood commands in Scripture. Many believers wrestle with guilt, confusion, or pain because they’ve been taught that forgiveness means forgetting, trusting again, or tolerating abuse. In this sermon, Dr. Rocky Ramsey brings Biblical clarity to a topic that carries eternal weight.Rocky defines forgiveness as “letting go,” a concept rooted in both Hebrew and Greek Scripture (Psalm 103:12; aphiēmi). From there, he outlines three distinct expressions of forgiveness found in God’s Word.Judicial forgiveness describes God’s once-for-all release of our guilt through Christ’s redemptive work (Luke 5:21; Ephesians 1:7). Psychological forgiveness calls believers to release bitterness, hatred, and revenge, entrusting justice to God alone (Romans 12:17–19). Relational forgiveness, however, involves restored fellowship and is conditioned upon repentance (1 John 1:9; Luke 17:3).The message also clarifies what forgiveness is not: forgetting, a feeling, tolerance, trust, or mere words. Scripture shows that while psychological forgiveness must be extended unconditionally, relational forgiveness requires repentance and accountability.Ultimately, believers are called to forgive because Jesus commands it, because unforgiveness damages the soul, and because walking in God’s will demands a heart free from bitterness (Matthew 6:12; Colossians 3:15).This sermon offers hope for wounded hearts, wisdom for broken relationships, and freedom for those bound by unforgiveness.Do you have a question for Pastor Rocky?

As a new year begins, many people hope for change—but few experience lasting transformation. In this sermon, Dr. Rocky Ramsey reminds us that the Christian life is not about self-improvement, but Spirit-empowered change into the likeness of Christ (Romans 8:29).Growth is lifelong (2 Corinthians 3:18), and it cannot happen without change. Scripture teaches that wise people change because they want to grow, while others change only when pain forces them—and fools refuse to change at all (Proverbs 12:15).Do you have a question for Pastor Rocky?

William Hunt challenges us to look beyond the manger and examine the kind of people God entrusts with His greatest work.From Matthew 1:18–25, we see that Mary and Joseph weren’t perfect—but they were righteous, gracious, thoughtful, obedient, and faithful. Their lives show us that God isn’t looking for flawless people, but for faithful ones who will trust Him when obedience is costly and clarity is limited.As we celebrate the birth of Christ, this message invites every believer—especially parents—to ask a sobering and hopeful question: Could God trust me with what matters most to Him?Watch Corryton Live every Sunday at: https://bit.ly/3b3IgjhMORE: https://bit.ly/corryton
