• Dry Doesn't Mean Dead: Finding Hope in Your Valley
    2026/10/26

    Ever looked at your family, yourfinances, or your faith and thought, it's over? It's too far gone?

    God walked Ezekiel into a valleyfull of dry bones and asked him one question: can these bones live?

    In this message, Pastor LonnieClinkscale preaches "Hope in the Valley" from Ezekiel 37:1-14. Hewalks through Israel's exile, a husband who skipped the instructions on abookshelf, and four truths for whatever valley you're in: dryness doesn't stopGod, disconnection doesn't stop God, direction comes through God's word, anddeliverance comes through God's Spirit. Then he brings it home with Field ofDreams and what it looks like to keep obeying when the field still looks empty.

    If your hope feels dry, yourprayers feel stuck, or you smile on the outside while you're worn out on theinside, this one is for you. Dry doesn't mean dead. God is still breathinglife.

    Scripture in this message:Ezekiel 37:1-14, Philippians 4:13, Philippians 4:19, Romans 10:9.

  • Courage to Lead: Facing Down the Fear Factor
    2026/10/18

    A season ended. Someone you leaned on is gone, and now it's on you.

    God's word for that moment is the same one He gave Joshua: be strong and courageous.

    Moses was dead. The man Joshua followed for 40 years was gone, and leading God's people into the promised land now depended on him. In this sermon from Joshua 1:1-9, Pastor Lonnie Clinkscale walks through three ways to face down fear: face change with courage, follow the calling with confidence, and focus on God's commands with consistency.

    He also shares his own testimony. As a boy he couldn't read, couldn't write, and couldn't spell his own first name. Then one day in class he heard God say, "Open up your mouth. Don't fear." If you're walking through a hard change, stepping into something new, or tired of fear calling the shots, this message is a reminder that the presence of fear doesn't mean the absence of God.

    Scripture: Joshua 1:1-9 (NIV), with references to the twelve spies in Numbers 13 to 14.

  • Age Doesn't Cancel Your Assignment | Caleb at 85 | Joshua 14 (60)
    2026/10/08

    Caleb was 85 years old when he said "give me this mountain." He didn't come home asking for retirement. He came home ready for reassignment.

    On homecoming Sunday at Mount Pleasant, Pastor Lonnie Clinkscale preaches from Joshua 14:6-14 on what happens when you come back to the place your faith was formed. Caleb spent 45 years in the wilderness, watched a whole generation pass away, and never let the delay make him doubt God's promise. In this sermon you'll hear three things homecoming reminds us: we have been kept, we're still strong, and we can still claim the promise.

    If you've been through storms, setbacks, or a long season of waiting, this Bible teaching is a reminder that age doesn't cancel assignments, delay doesn't destroy your destiny, and God isn't finished with you yet.

    Scripture: Joshua 14:6-14 (KJV), with a focus on Joshua 14:10-12.
