The Old Testament as a Story of God’s Relentless Love | Rev. Michael Fredericks

Using a variation on "The Gospel in Chairs" illustration, Pastor Michael walks us through the 4 major Covenants of the Old Testament, plus the New Covenant, framing them as a story of God's loving pursuit of his people. A closer look at Genesis 15 reveals an incredible truth about the deal God made with Abram when he 'cut' his Covenant with him. If you've wondered if the God of the Old Testament is a loving God, or if God really loves you despite your ongoing struggles with sin -- this message should help!Rev.

The Origin, Nature, and Tactics of Satan and His Demons | Rev. Michael Fredericks

Is the Universe only 6000 years old? How Did God Create? | Rev. Michael Fredericks

Can I follow Jesus and believe in the big bang and evolution? Can mainstream science and Biblical faith peacefully co-exist? All Christians believe THAT God created the universe, but we disagree on HOW he did it. This message describes three main 'camps' within Christianity on this issue: Young Earth Creationism, Old Earth Creationism, and Evolutionary Creationism. Each approach is considered fairly and Pastor Michael shares his long journey from being an outspoken Young Earth Creationist, to taking a different position. Feb 15, 2026Rev.
