Discerning the Times (Steven DiFrancesco, 10/18/25)

We live in a world where evil can seem overwhelming, but Scripture reminds us that the outcome of the cosmic conflict is certain. Dr. Steven DiFrancesco explores the great controversy, the character of God revealed through His law and grace, and the hope we have in Jesus, who entered our broken world to rescue us. Even in times of uncertainty and struggle, we are invited to keep our eyes on God, trust His strength, and remember that at the cross, Jesus was thinking of us. Sermon by Dr. Steven DiFrancesco, recorded on October 18, 2025, at the Ringgold Seventh-day Adventist Church.

Beginning...and the End (Pastor Greg Hudson, 10/11/25)

Trees tell stories—and in Scripture, those stories tell the story of salvation. From the tree in Eden that marks humanity’s fall, to the tree of the cross where Jesus gave His life, and finally to the tree of life in the restored creation, this sermon traces God’s unfolding story of grace, sacrifice, and hope. Along the way, we are invited to see more clearly the character of a Creator who did not abandon His creation, but entered our world to rescue us. As you listen, consider a personal question: Have you not only heard the story of Jesus, but allowed His sacrifice to transform your life? Sermon by Pastor Greg Hudson, recorded on October 11, 2025, at the Ringgold Seventh-day Adventist Church.

The King Is Coming (Felecia Sanders, 10/04/25)

Today's message is brought to us by Felecia Sanders, liaison and trainer for the Soul-winning And Leadership Training (SALT) evangelism training program. While SALT students prepare community members for invitation to our upcoming evangelistic series, Sanders is hyping the congregation up for part of our "Why?" of soul-winning: the soon return of Christ! Listen in as she reviews with us what the 2nd Coming will bring an end to, what it will bring a beginning to, and what we should be doing about it! Sermon by Felecia Sanders, recorded on October 4, 2025, at the Ringgold Seventh-day Adventist Church.

Feed My Sheep (Pastor Greg Hudson, 09/27/25)

All we like sheep have gone astray. As we minister to the lost sheep, can we afford to consider simply finding the sheep to be the finish line? Pastor Greg goes into and beyond the parable of the lost sheep, challenging and equipping us for more deliberate discipleship--feeding the sheep--after the lost are brought home. Sermon by Pastor Greg Hudson, recorded on September 27, 2025, at the Ringgold Seventh-day Adventist Church.

My Spiritual Journey (Paige Parnell, 09/20/25)

Paige Parnell was on the upswing in the entertainment industry. With God in mind and a Miss Alabama crown on her head, through mixed signals she concluded that this was her opportunity to use her budding career as a platform to witness. Though she learned over years of heartache that this was not God's will for her, she is able to testify today that God is mighty to save and mighty to restore! And today, she uses her gifts for non-profit Train His Lambs (trainhislambs.org), to the benefit Christian education. Testimony by Paige Parnell, recorded on September 20, 2025, at the Ringgold Seventh-day Adventist Church.

Standing in the Gap (Dr. David Hartman, 09/13/25)

Biblical and other historical examples of "standing in the gap" are numerous and inspiring. This heroic move that has turned the tide of battles and sieges can also be applied in spiritual warfare. On the threshold of an evangelistic campaign in Ringgold, Dr. David Hartman commissions the congregation to stand in the gap using intercessory prayer. Who in our lives, in our community, needs the Spirit to move on their heart in ways you and I cannot? Dr. Hartman teaches in the area of applied theology at Southern Adventist University. His classes include Christian Beliefs, Christian Spirituality, and Interpersonal Ministry. He has a passion for winning people to Christ and training others to do the same. He will also be one of the guest speakers for our fall evangelistic series. Sermon by Dr. David Hartman, recorded on September 13, 2025, at the Ringgold Seventh-day Adventist Church.

Built To Multiply (Vaughan Choudree, 09/06/25)

Even the demons know the scripture, so what good is knowing its words without acting on them? Brother Vaughan Choudree challenges us that we all have 1,440 minutes in each day, and in that time, we have opportunity to share the gospel as Jesus commands. We are called to be disciples, making disciples! Imagine the impact of simple friendship evangelism, if we would but study God's Word and share with the people we encounter in our daily lives. Sermon by Vaughan Choudree, recorded on September 6, 2025, at the Ringgold Seventh-day Adventist Church.

Go! (Pastor Greg Hudson, 08/30/25)

Many of us remember hearing mission stories growing up--stories of people meeting challenges and even persecution for sharing God's Word and love. What does the gospel mean to you and me, today, even as we experience freedom of worship? People still need to hear the gospel as much as any other time or place. Pastor Greg encourages us to set aside the armchair gospel and instead "Go Ye Therefore," take up the gospel message to the people we are called to share it with! Sermon by Pastor Greg Hudson, recorded on August 30, 2025, at the Ringgold Seventh-day Adventist Church.

His Best for My Worst (Dr. Philip Samaan, 08/23/25)

Though Jesus' ministry on earth has a timeless impression across cultures, He was still very much ministering to a specific people of a specific time and place. Our guest speaker today offers insight into the culture Christ lived in and ministered to, so we can appreciate yet more layers of beauty in Christ's grace towards you and me today. Our speaker today, Dr. Philip Samaan, is a retired pastor and Southern Adventist University theology professor. He offers not only this perspective but also as one who grew up on the Mediterranean coast near Israel. Sermon by Dr. Philip Samaan, recorded on August 23, 2025, at the Ringgold Seventh-day Adventist Church.

The Christian Journey (Julian Harrington, 08/16/25)

The Beatitudes are a "blessed" passage from Christ's Sermon on the Mount. More than just poetic words of comfort, they are promises to those who persist in the Christian Journey. Today's guest speaker, Andrews University Theological Seminary student Julian Harrington, reminds us that in the backdrop of the cosmic conflict between God and Satan, the Christian journey as a lifestyle (rather than a one-day-a-week commitment) offers a buffer to life in this sin-sick world, as we look ahead to eternity. Sermon by Julian Harrington, recorded on August 16, 2025, at the Ringgold Seventh-day Adventist Church.
