The Church at Thyatira | Pastor Zac Ethridge | Liberty Live Church
The letter to the church at Thyatira shows that Jesus sees both the good works and the hidden sins of His church. Although the believers at Thyatira were growing in love, faith, service, and perseverance, they tolerated false teaching and sexual immorality. Jesus, whose eyes see everything, exposes sin not to shame people but to lead them toward repentance, healing, and grace. He warns that continued refusal to repent brings judgment, while those who turn back to Him can receive mercy.The passage calls Christians to honor God with their bodies, reject sexual immorality, and allow Christ to purify His church.Jesus also promises authority and eternal fellowship with those who remain faithful, teaching that those who will reign with Christ must first allow Christ to rule them.Ultimately, the message is a call to hear Jesus, repent of sin, trust His greater grace, and remain faithful until He comes.The letter to the church at Thyatira shows that Jesus sees both the good works and the hidden sins of His church.Although the believers at Thyatira were growing in love, faith, service, and perseverance, they tolerated false teaching and sexual immorality.Jesus, whose eyes see everything, exposes sin not to shame people but to lead them toward repentance, healing, and grace.He warns that continued refusal to repent brings judgment, while those who turn back to Him can receive mercy.

The Church at Pergamum | Pastor Grant Ethridge | Liberty Live Church
The church is called to remain faithful to Jesus, proclaim the gospel, make disciples, and reach the lost before it is too late.Jesus’ message to the church at Pergamum challenges believers to uphold biblical truth even while living in a culture hostile to Christianity. Although the church remained faithful under persecution, Jesus warned that compromise from within could be just as destructive as persecution from without. The teachings of Balaam and the Nicolaitans illustrate the dangers of tolerating false teaching, idolatry, immorality, and a distorted understanding of grace. Jesus calls His church to repent, reject compromise, and live distinctly as salt and light rather than becoming indistinguishable from the surrounding culture. Those who overcome are promised Christ’s provision, represented by the hidden manna, the white stone of acceptance, and a new name that reflects their identity in Him.The message ultimately calls every believer and the church as a whole to stop postponing obedience—“someday” is no day; today is the day to follow Jesus, serve Him, and embrace what God wants to do next.If this message encouraged you, be sure to like, subscribe,and share it with someone who needs hope today.

Letter to Smyrna | Pastor Dalton Stoltz | Liberty Live Church
The letter to the church in Smyrna shows how Jesus calls believers to remain faithful even when following Him becomes costly. Jesus reminds the suffering church that He is “the First and the Last,” who died and rose again, assuring them that He understands suffering and has power over death. Although Smyrna was poor, persecuted, and under intense pressure, Jesus declared that they were truly rich because He valued eternal faithfulness over earthly wealth and success. Jesus did not promise that their suffering would disappear; instead, He told them not to fear, explaining that their trials were limited and ultimately under His authority. He called them to be faithful unto death, promising them the “crown of life,” a victor’s wreath representing eternal reward. The examples of Shadrach, Meshach, Abednego, Esther, Stephen, and later Polycarp demonstrate that genuine faithfulness means choosing Christ regardless of the outcome. Ultimately, the church of Smyrna teaches that the greatest crown is not earthly wealth, comfort, influence, or recognition, but remaining faithful to Jesus until the end.If this message encouraged you, be sure to like, subscribe,and share it with someone who needs hope today.

The Church in Ephesus | Pastor Daniel Ethridge | Liberty Live Church
Jesus commended the church in Ephesus for their hard work, endurance, intolerance of evil, discernment of false teaching, and willingness to persevere through persecution.However, despite doing many things right, they had abandoned their first love and were no longer pursuing Jesus with the same passion they once had.Their example shows that it is possible to serve God, defend truth, and endure hardship while losing the love and relationship that should motivate everything we do.Jesus calls them to remember how far they had fallen, repent by turning away from what caused them to grow cold, and return to the works and passionate pursuit they had at first.This reminds us that our service and ministry mean little if they are not rooted in a genuine love for Jesus, because the Christian life is ultimately about loving Him in response to His love for us.Jesus gives us the same invitation today: to examine our hearts, return to our first love, and fully commit our lives to Him.If this message encouraged you, be sure to like, subscribe,and share it with someone who needs hope today.

Why Should you be Baptized | Pastor Grant Ethridge | Liberty Live Church
Baptism is an important act of obedience that Jesus commanded for every believer and follower of Him. The biblical pattern is for people to believe in Jesus first and then be baptized, rather than being baptized as a means of salvation. Baptism is by immersion, symbolizing a believer’s identification with Christ’s death, burial, and resurrection and their commitment to live a new life. Baptism publicly identifies a person with Jesus and His church, much like a wedding ring publicly represents a marriage. Scripture shows that believers were baptized immediately after putting their faith in Christ, without unnecessary delays or requirements. Since baptism does not save us but demonstrates our faith and obedience, every person who has truly trusted Jesus should boldly follow His command and be baptized.

Run with Endurance | Pastor Daniel Ethridge | Liberty Live Church
What does it look like to run the Christian life with endurance?In this message from our series Look to Jesus, Pastor Daniel walks through Hebrews 12:1-3 and challenges us to keep running the race God has set before us. The Christian life is not a sprint. It is an endurance race that requires consistency, perseverance, and a steady focus on Jesus.Pastor Daniel shares four truths from this passage:1. The Race Is Set Before You God has a purpose, calling, and mission for your life. Are you running the race He has set before you?2. Run with Endurance The Christian life requires consistency and stamina. We are called to keep pressing forward, even when the journey is difficult.3. Look to Jesus Jesus is our ultimate example of endurance. When we keep our eyes on Him, the challenges around us lose their ability to define our perspective.4. Don’t Give Up You may feel tired, behind, or discouraged, but the race isn’t over. Keep going. The goal is to finish well.“The key to the Christian life is enduring to the end.”The race is set before you. Run with endurance. Look to Jesus. Don’t give up.

Throw Off the Sin | Pastor Grant Ethridge | Liberty Live Church
The message “Throw Off the Sin” explains that sin is not merely an action but a rebellion against God that began with Satan and entered humanity through Adam and Eve. Because all people are born with a sinful nature, sin separates us from God and produces death, brokenness, and destruction. Sin also acts as a snare, using things such as fear of people, wrong relationships, sexual immorality, greed, pride, and selfish desires to entangle and destroy us. Hebrews 12 calls believers to throw off every sin and continually put away the old nature while putting on the new, making holiness a daily process of following Christ. We cannot overcome sin through our own strength or wisdom, because salvation and freedom from sin come only through Jesus and His sacrifice on the cross. Therefore, instead of trusting ourselves or the standards of culture, we must keep our eyes on Jesus, who took our sin upon Himself so that through Him we could receive the righteousness of God.If this message encouraged you, be sure to like, subscribe,and share it with someone who needs hope today.

Throw Off the Weight | Pastor Grant Ethridge | Liberty Live Church
This sermon introduces the first week of a 21-day series, "Looking Unto Jesus," based on Hebrews 12:1–3, emphasizing that believers can only run their spiritual raceby keeping their focus on Jesus. Drawing from the "Hall of Faith" in Hebrews 11, it reminds Christians that imperfect men and women of faith finished their race and now encourage others to persevere. The message teaches that God has a unique purpose for every believer and challenges them toidentify and remove the "weights"—such as distractions, comparison, unhealthy habits, discouragement, and unbelief—that slow their spiritual growth, even if those things are not sinful. It stresses that the Christian life is centered on a relationship with Jesus rather than simply following rules,and encourages believers to develop and share their personal testimony of God's work in their lives. The sermon also highlights the value of prayer and fasting during the 21 days as a way to refocus on God and eliminate distractions thathinder faith. Finally, it calls believers to trust God's promises, pray with faith and endurance, and remain confident that God will strengthen them to fulfill the purpose He has prepared for them.
