Pastor Jeffrey Johnson reminds us that while our earthly bodies waste away, believers can live with unshakable courage because a far greater reality awaits us. Drawing from 2 Corinthians 5:1–6, he explains that our groaning in this life—through pain, sickness, and the effects of aging—is not a hopeless despair, but a longing for the perfect body God has prepared.

This future body will be heavenly (crafted by God, not from the dust), spiritual (perfectly suited for our redeemed souls), and eternal (free from decay, filled with life in Christ). Johnson urges us to see beyond the visible, temporary world and fix our hope on the unseen, eternal kingdom—where heaven and earth will be made one and faith will give way to sight. Until then, the Spirit within us is both our guarantee and our motivator to live faithfully, courageously, and with our eyes on eternity.

In this powerful and sobering sermon, Pastor Jeffrey Johnson unpacks 2 Corinthians 4:16–18 to confront the reality of human mortality and the Christian's hope beyond death. With both candor and compassion, he reminds us that while our outer selves waste away, our inner selves are being renewed daily. Using vivid illustrations and heartfelt personal stories, Johnson explains how afflictions—though real and painful—are light and momentary when compared to the eternal weight of glory they are producing for those in Christ.

This message dives deep into the paradox of the Christian life: death working in our flesh is the very means by which spiritual life and renewal are cultivated. Johnson outlines six encouraging truths about the benefits of dying in Christ, including how suffering renews our souls, sharpens our vision of eternity, and detaches us from the fleeting pleasures of this world.

For anyone facing aging, sickness, or discouragement—or simply longing for a more eternal perspective—this sermon offers rich biblical comfort and a call to live by faith in the unseen, imperishable realities of God’s promises.

In this stirring message, Pastor Jeffrey Johnson invites listeners to embrace the call to spiritual fruitfulness—even amid suffering. Drawing from 2 Corinthians 4:7-15, he challenges the church to see affliction not as a barrier, but as a powerful means through which God's surpassing power is revealed. As clay jars carrying the priceless treasure of the gospel, believers display Christ’s strength through their weakness.

Pastor Johnson highlights how suffering serves not only to magnify God’s glory within us but also to bring life to others and unify the church in shared compassion and purpose. Whether facing illness, relational hardship, or spiritual fatigue, this sermon encourages listeners to persevere, knowing that their endurance and faith shine as a testimony to God’s sustaining grace.

Tune in to be reminded that affliction can be beautiful—and that through it, both Christ’s life and love are made known.

In this heartfelt and powerful message, Pastor Jeffrey Johnson unpacks 2 Corinthians 4:1–6 with a dual focus: to equip believers in how to evangelize faithfully, and to evangelize everyone present—whether saved or unsaved. With bold honesty and gospel-centered urgency, Pastor Johnson emphasizes the necessity of remaining optimistic, honest, faithful, and humble in our witness, reminding us that our ministry is one of mercy, not merit.

He confronts our natural pride and spiritual blindness, pointing out that outside of Christ, we are nothing but "scumbags"—a term he uses intentionally to provoke humility and truthfulness about our condition. Yet, the grace of God shines brightly through the darkness. The sermon underscores that evangelism is not about persuasive words or clever methods but about proclaiming Jesus Christ as Lord with sincerity, faithfulness, and boldness.

Through vivid illustrations and deep theological reflection, Pastor Johnson calls all listeners to renewed faith, repentance, and surrender—whether for the first time or as a fresh response to the gospel. This message is a clarion call to live as those who never graduate from the gospel but who continuously run the race of faith by the mercy and power of God.

In this profound and heartfelt sermon, Pastor Jeffrey Johnson explores the rich meaning and spiritual power of 2 Corinthians 3:18. He guides listeners through four key "glories" revealed in the passage: the glory of beholding God, the glory of God Himself, the glory of being transformed into His likeness, and the glory that this transformation is entirely God's work.

Through vivid storytelling and theological depth, Pastor Johnson emphasizes that to truly know God is to inevitably love Him—and this love leads to transformation. From personal encounters with God’s presence to the beauty of Christ’s humility, listeners are invited to gaze into the face of Jesus and be changed from one degree of glory to another. This message is a stirring call to seek the presence of God with unveiled hearts, experience His sanctifying love, and grow in Christlikeness through the Spirit.

In this heartfelt and challenging message, Pastor Jeffrey Johnson explores the vital themes of discipline in both parenting and the church.

Using the context of church discipline in Corinth, Pastor Johnson draws powerful parallels to parenting, addressing the struggles many face in finding balance—between being too harsh or too lenient. With transparency about his own journey as a parent, he encourages believers to pursue discipline that reflects God's own character: measured, consistent, and loving.

The message emphasizes the importance of early and clear instruction for children, the dangers of both neglect and overcorrection, and the ultimate goal of instilling self-discipline and pointing children to Christ.

Through vivid illustrations and heartfelt teaching, Pastor Johnson contrasts the world's constant "no"—no peace, no fulfillment, no lasting joy—with the unchanging "yes" we find in Jesus.

We are reminded of our utter dependence on God, the futility of searching for contentment in ourselves or the world, and the deep need we have for grace. Pastor Johnson masterfully unpacks how every promise of God finds its fulfillment in Christ, offering us not just temporary relief but eternal hope, peace, and joy.
