When God's Timing Doesn't Match Yours

Have you ever felt like God was late? We all have a preferred timeline. We know when we think something should happen, how quickly it should happen, and sometimes even what the outcome should be. But Psalm 31:15 reminds us: "My times are in Your hand." In this message, William Hunt looks at the value of time, the seasons of life, and the perfect timing of God. Even when His timing feels sudden or delayed, nothing is random and nothing surprises Him. Watch Corryton Live every Sunday at: https://corryton.online.church/

Sign Gifts: Truth, Counterfeits, and Biblical Discernment

The Bible is filled with miracles—but what was their purpose? Do miraculous gifts still exist today? How should Christians evaluate modern claims of healings, prophecy, tongues, and supernatural experiences? In this message from our Systematic Theology series, Dr. Rocky Ramsey revisits the topic of the "sign gifts," taking a careful look at what Scripture actually teaches. Rather than building theology around personal experiences, this study examines God's unchanging nature, the purpose of Biblical miracles, why miraculous signs appeared during key moments of redemptive history, and how believers should discern truth from deception. You'll also discover why the greatest miracle God performs is not merely physical healing, but the transformation of a sinner into a child of God through Jesus Christ. Whether you've wrestled with questions about miracles, healing, tongues, or the supernatural, this Biblical study will challenge you to root your faith in God's Word rather than experiences.

In God We Still Trust: America's Foundation

As we celebrate our nation's birthday, we look beyond fireworks and history books to ask a deeper question: How did Christianity shape the founding of the United States?

Why We're Here: Helping People Say Yes to God

Why doesn't God take us to Heaven the moment we became Christians? The Bible teaches that every follower of Jesus has been given a purpose. We were created in God's image, redeemed through Christ, and sent into the world as His ambassadors. In this message, Dr. Rocky Ramsey explores God's purpose for every believer and every church. From Genesis to the Great Commission, Scripture reveals that God is restoring His image in us so He can work through us to reach others with the hope of the gospel.

The "Sign" Gifts: Do Miracles Still Happen?

Do miracles still happen? Why were signs and wonders so prominent in certain periods of Scripture? What was the purpose of tongues, healings, and miraculous gifts in the early church? Continuing our series on the Holy Spirit, Dr. Rocky Ramsey examines the "sign gifts" and explores the Biblical purpose of miracles. Scripture reveals that God never changes and that He is still able to work supernaturally, but it also shows that miracles served a unique purpose in validating God's messengers and the message of the gospel. In this message, you'll discover why miracles appeared in waves throughout Biblical history, why not everyone in Scripture was healed, why even Satan can counterfeit signs, and how God continues to work miraculously through His provision, healing, circumstances, revelation, and life-changing power. Most importantly, faith is not built upon spectacular experiences. Faith comes through the truth of God's Word. "Faith comes from hearing, and hearing by the word of Christ." — Romans 10:17 Do you have a question for Pastor Rocky? Email media@corrytonchurch.com to submit your questions today.

Why Faith Doesn't Always Get What You Want

What is faith, really? Is faith simply believing hard enough to get what you want? Does unanswered prayer mean you didn't have enough faith? Can faith change reality—or does it trust the God who created reality? In this message, Dr. Rocky Ramsey examines Scripture and the example of Abraham to explain how Biblical faith actually works. Faith is not wishful thinking, positive vibes, or denying reality. Biblical faith is choosing to trust what God has said, even when doubts, emotions, and circumstances say otherwise. In this message: • Faith is based on what God says, not what we want. • God's Word is the most powerful force in the universe. • God is limited only by His own nature. • Faith does not deny reality but trusts in a greater reality. • Faith means believing your beliefs and doubting your doubts. • Faith does not always get what we want when we want it. • One proof of what we believe is that we live like we believe it.

Spiritual Gifts: Why God Made You Different

Every believer is uniquely shaped by God and gifted by His Spirit. In this message from our series on the Holy Spirit, Dr. Rocky Ramsey teaches what spiritual gifts are, why God gives them, and how they are meant to serve others rather than ourselves. From Romans 12, 1 Corinthians 12, Ephesians 4, and 1 Peter 4, this message explains the different kinds of spiritual gifts and reminds us that God has designed His people to function together as one body. We don't choose our gifts; we discover them. Our gifts are God's gift to us, but our character and effort are our gift back to Him. Whether you are a teacher, servant, leader, encourager, giver, or someone still trying to understand where you fit, this message will help you discover how God has equipped you to make an eternal difference. "Since we have gifts that differ according to the grace given to us, each of us is to exercise them accordingly..." — Romans 12:6 Do you have a question for Pastor Rocky?

How Do You Know You're Really Saved?

How do you know that you're truly a Christian? Most people point to something they did in the past. But Scripture points to something God is doing in the present. In this second of two messages on Biblical assurance, Dr. Rocky Ramsey examines the evidence of genuine salvation found throughout God's Word. Jesus Himself warned that many who think they belong to Him do not truly know Him. So how can a person know? This message explores: • Why assurance is based on God's work, not self-confidence • Why salvation begins with trusting Christ, not ourselves • Why growing obedience matters • Why Christians love and remain connected to God's family • Why believers increasingly feel like strangers in this world • How the Holy Spirit confirms our relationship with God • Why genuine faith believes God's Word and desires His will Christianity is not proven by a memory. It is evidenced by a relationship. Do you have a question for Pastor Rocky? Email media@corrytonchurch.com to submit your questions today.

Spiritual Fruit: What God Wants to Produce in You

Jesus said, "I am the vine, you are the branches." God never intended the Christian life to be about merely appearing religious. He intended for His people to bear fruit. In this message from Dr. Rocky Ramsey, we continue our study of the Holy Spirit by examining Spiritual Fruit. What kind of fruit does God expect from believers? How does spiritual fruit grow? Is bearing fruit something God does, something we do, or both? And what does fruit reveal about whether our faith is genuine? Scripture teaches that God intends for His people to bear fruit in their works, worship, influence, and character. Eternal fruit isn't manufactured through willpower—it flows from a life connected to Christ, empowered by the Holy Spirit. If you've ever wondered what spiritual maturity really looks like, this message points us back to the Vine and reminds us that changed lives are the evidence of living faith. "By this My Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit, and so prove to be My disciples." — John 15:8 Do you have a question for Pastor Rocky?

The Biblical Evidence of Salvation

How do you know that you're really a Christian? Many people point to a prayer they prayed, a decision they made, or an experience they had years ago. But what does the Bible say? In this message, Dr. Rocky Ramsey begins a two-part study examining the biblical evidence of salvation. Drawing heavily from 1 John and the teachings of Jesus, this message explores how believers can evaluate their faith honestly and confidently. Part One covers: • Why thinking you're a Christian doesn't necessarily make you one • What Jesus meant when He warned that many would be deceived about their faith • Why Christians belong to God • Why assurance must be grounded in Scripture, not assumptions • The evidence of recognizing your inability to save yourself • Trusting completely in Christ's work for salvation • Growing obedience as evidence of genuine faith Do you have a question for Pastor Rocky?
