Passing the Torch of Faith, Part 2
Passing the Torch of Faith | Genesis 26:1–35 Every generation faces familiar battles in unfamiliar ways. Isaac discovered that firsthand. Though he inherited the same God, same gospel, and same mission as Abraham… he faced a very different world — different economy, different environment, different ethical challenges. In this message, Pastor Zach Terry walks through Genesis 26 and shows how Isaac learned to make the faith his own — and how we can pass that same torch to the next generation. You'll learn three key principles from the life of Isaac: Be Honest About Your Failures Our kids won't learn from what we hide — only from what we reveal. Transparency becomes a generational blessing. Be Thorough in Your Repentance Patterns are inherited. If we don't break them, our children will repeat them. Be Clear About Where You Found Water More than rules, the next generation needs to know where we found hope, strength, Scripture, and spiritual wells that sustained us. From economic chaos to digital saturation to shifting moral frameworks, today's young Christians are growing up in a world unlike any before it. But the God who was with Abraham and Isaac is the same God who will be with them. This sermon is a call for parents, grandparents, and spiritual leaders to pass on the faith with honesty, humility, and clarity — marking out the wells that sustained us, so the next generation can drink deeply from God's grace. Watch now and be encouraged as you lead the next generation to the God who is always faithful.

Wrestling With Appetites, Part 2
Wrestling with Appetites – Genesis 25:19–34 | Pastor Zach Terry In this message from Genesis 25, Pastor Zach Terry unpacks the story of Jacob and Esau and shows how unchecked appetites can cost us far more than we ever intended to pay. From Esau trading his birthright for a bowl of stew to the spiritual battle happening long before the twins were even born, Scripture gives us a powerful warning: if you don't control your appetites, your appetites will control you. Using vivid illustrations, from competitive eating legends to the struggles of emotional fatigue, Pastor Zach demonstrates how the enemy hijacks our desires, distorts our perception, minimizes consequences, and ultimately leads us toward foolish decisions. You'll learn: Why appetites aren't sinful but can become spiritually dangerous How impact bias and focalism distort your judgment How Esau lost everything for a moment of comfort How to break the power of destructive appetites Why big decisions must be made from a place of spiritual and emotional health How to "reframe your future" the way Jesus did in Gethsemane If you've ever felt pulled by temptation, worn down by craving, or overwhelmed by desire, this message will help you see your choices clearly and walk in wisdom.
