What does it mean to be a Baptist — and does it even matter? In this warm, honest, and surprisingly fun message, Dr. Scott Wilson takes a one-week break from Genesis to walk through seven foundational Baptist distinctives using the acronym B.A.P.T.I.S.T. From the authority of Scripture to believer’s baptism to the priesthood of all believers, he unpacks why these convictions matter — and why they’re worth holding with both courage and humility.

Whether you grew up Baptist, just found your way to a Baptist church, or have always wondered what sets it apart from other denominations, this message is for you. Dr. Wilson doesn’t just defend the distinctives — he celebrates them while reminding us that our greatest identity isn’t our denomination, it’s our relationship with Jesus Christ. We’re only Baptists for a little while, but we get to be Christians forever.

🔥 1 Corinthians 16:13-14 📅 October 18, 2026 📖 Stand-Alone Message 🎤 Dr. Scott Wilson

In Genesis 42 and 43, Joseph's brothers make the long journey to Egypt in search of food — and they have no idea they're about to come face to face with the brother they betrayed. Dr. Scott Wilson walks through this gripping story and shows us four reasons to praise God even in the hard seasons: He directs us, He tests us, He changes us, and He is merciful to us.

God was working in the lives of Joseph's brothers long before they recognized it — using a famine, a dungeon, and a steward's careful words to awaken their consciences and begin to change their hearts. And the same God who moved in those ancient family dynamics is moving in yours. Your life is not a series of random events. It's in the hands of a wise, sovereign God who loves you more than anyone in this world.

The meal Joseph shared with his brothers is one of the most beautiful pictures of the gospel in all of Scripture — the one who suffered most at the hands of sinners setting the table and calling them to sit down. That's the heart of Jesus toward us. Whatever you're carrying into this week, you are not forgotten, you are not forsaken, and your cup runs over.

What if the detours in your life were never accidents — but were actually the path all along? In Genesis 41, Joseph's story takes a stunning turn. After 13 years of slavery, false accusations, and forgotten promises, God moves in a single day — and Joseph goes from the dungeon to the palace. This message from Dr. Scott Wilson unpacks the qualities God develops in people He uses in mighty ways: waiting on Him through the long, quiet years; refusing to steal His glory; walking in the Spirit; and remaining faithful whether you're at the bottom or the top.

Maybe you're in a season that feels more like detours than dreams. Maybe the wait has been long and the silence has been loud. Joseph's story is a reminder that God is sovereign over every twist, every wrong turn, and every forgotten promise — and His plan cannot be stopped. He's not finished with you.

And here's the beautiful truth at the heart of it all: just as Pharaoh told the hungry crowds to "go to Joseph," the Father points us to Jesus — the greater Joseph, the Bread of Life. Whatever you're carrying into this week, there is One who can truly satisfy.

🔥 Genesis 40:1-23 📅 September 13, 2026 📖 Dreams and Detours Series 🎤 Dr. Scott Wilson

Have you ever felt forgotten — by people you counted on, or even by God Himself? In this message from the Dreams and Detours series, Dr. Scott Wilson takes us to Genesis 40 and one of the quietest chapters in Joseph's story: the waiting, the forgotten promise, and the two more years that nobody saw coming.

Joseph had already been sold by his brothers, falsely accused, and thrown into prison. And just when it seemed like things might finally turn around, the one person who could have helped him simply... forgot. But what looked like abandonment was actually preparation. God was forging Joseph in the forgotten place — shaping him for an assignment bigger than anything Joseph could have planned for himself.

If you're in a season of waiting that doesn't make sense, this message is for you. God hasn't forgotten you. He's working, He's speaking, and He has a plan that is far bigger than you can see right now.

🔥 John 3 📅 September 6, 2026 📖 Special Message 🎤 Dr. Larry Bazer

John 3 is one of the most familiar chapters in the Bible — but familiar doesn't always mean fully understood. In this message, guest speaker Dr. Larry Bazer walks us through four "musts" from John 3 that cut to the heart of what it means to truly know Jesus.

Whether you've read this chapter a hundred times or you're hearing it for the first time, there's something here worth sitting with.

🔥 Genesis 39:1-23 📅 August 30, 2026 📖 Dreams and Detours Series 🎤 Dr. Scott Wilson

Temptation is coming. The question isn't whether it will show up — it's whether we'll be ready when it does. In this message from the Dreams and Detours series, Dr. Scott Wilson takes us to Genesis 39 and one of the most famous tests of character in all of Scripture: Joseph, Potiphar's house, and a temptation that kept coming back day after day.

What made Joseph stand when so many others would have fallen? It wasn't just willpower — it was perspective. He knew God was with him, God was blessing him, and God had a plan too big to throw away on a moment of weakness. And when the moment came, he did the only wise thing: he ran.

Whether your temptation looks like Joseph's or something completely different, this message is a practical and encouraging reminder that faithfulness is possible — not because we're strong enough, but because God is with us in every season, every setback, and every open door of escape.

🔥 Genesis 38:1-30 📅 August 23, 2026 📖 Dreams and Detours Series 🎤 Dr. Scott Wilson

Genesis 38 might be the most surprising chapter in the Bible — raw, uncomfortable, and tucked right in the middle of Joseph's story for a reason. In this message, Dr. Scott Wilson walks us through the story of Judah and Tamar to show us two things that are always true at the same time: sin is uglier than we think, and the Gospel is more beautiful than we imagine.

Through one of Scripture's most unexpected chapters, we see sin committed, sin exposed, and sin confessed — and we see what it looks like when God's grace gets a hold of a person and changes them for good. We also see something remarkable: that even through the mess of broken people making broken choices, God's salvation plan was never in danger for a single moment.

If you've ever thought you were too far gone for grace — or too put-together to need it — this message is for you. The scarlet thread of redemption runs straight through this story, and it runs all the way to Jesus.

🔥 Genesis 37:1-36 📅 August 16, 2026 📖 Dreams and Detours Series 🎤 Dr. Scott Wilson

What do you do when life throws you into a pit — when the people closest to you let you down, when your plans fall apart, and when you can't see any way forward? In this first message of the Dreams and Detours series, Dr. Scott Wilson takes us to Genesis 37 and the opening chapter of one of the greatest stories ever told: the life of Joseph.

From a father's favorite son to a slave headed to Egypt, Joseph's journey begins with betrayal, heartbreak, and a pit he never saw coming. But running underneath the whole story is something his brothers never counted on — the sovereign hand of a God whose plans cannot be stopped, not even by the worst things people do to us.

If you've ever felt lost, betrayed, or stuck in a season that makes no sense, Joseph's story is for you. God hadn't forgotten him in that pit, and He hasn't forgotten you either.

🔥 Matthew 13:1-9, 18-23 📅 August 9, 2026 📖 Special Gospel Message 🎤 Dr. Scott Wilson

When a farmer scatters seed, it doesn't all land the same way. Some falls on hard ground, some on rocky soil, some in a tangle of weeds — and some lands in good soil and produces a harvest beyond what anyone expected. In this special message, Dr. Scott Wilson walks us through one of Jesus' most well-known parables to ask a question that cuts right to the heart: what kind of soil is your heart?

There's only one seed — the good news that Jesus died for sinners and rose again. But how we receive that news makes all the difference. This message takes an honest look at four kinds of hearts, and the ways we can hear about Jesus without ever really letting that message change us. It also points to the incredible hope that God is in the business of softening hard hearts and preparing them to receive His grace.

No matter where you find yourself today, this message is an invitation to say yes to the Savior who is still scattering seed — and to let that good news take root and change everything.

🔥 Genesis 35:1-36:43 📅 August 2, 2026 📖 Unstoppable Grace Series 🎤 Dr. Scott Wilson

Every life is a journey — and the direction you're headed matters more than you might think. In this final message of the Unstoppable Grace series, Dr. Scott Wilson takes us to Genesis 35 and 36 to look at two brothers, two very different paths, and the one truth that holds it all together.

Jacob was far from perfect, but he was a man of faith who kept returning to God — even when life was messy, even when he had wandered. Esau, on the other hand, was successful by every outward measure, but he spent his life walking away from the things of God. The contrast between them is still one of the most relevant questions any of us can ask ourselves today: which direction am I heading?

But this story doesn't end with two brothers — it ends with the One who came to save them both. Whether you've been walking with God for years or you've been heading the wrong direction for a while, this message is an invitation to turn around and find the God who has been faithful all along.

🔥 Genesis 34:1-31 📅 July 26, 2026 📖 Unstoppable Grace Series 🎤 Dr. Scott Wilson

Genesis 34 is the kind of chapter that makes you uncomfortable — and that's exactly why we need it. In this message, Dr. Scott Wilson walks us through one of the Bible's most difficult stories to show us something we all need to see: sin is ugly, and our response to sin can be just as ugly. But for every kind of sinner in this story — and in our own lives — there is a beautiful hope available.

Through Dinah's story, we see three responses to sin that still show up today: apathy, blindness, and revenge. None of them bring healing. None of them bring justice. And all of them remind us that we are more like the broken people in this chapter than we'd like to admit — which means we need the same grace they needed.

If you've been wronged, if you're carrying anger, or if you're simply honest enough to admit that your response to someone else's sin hasn't always been right either, this message points to the only place where real hope is found: the cross of Jesus Christ, where God chose grace over getting even with us.

🔥 Matthew 20:20-28 📅 July 19, 2026 📖 Unworldly Series 🎤 Dr. Mike Griffin

We live in a world obsessed with getting ahead — with being noticed, recognized, and admired. And if we're honest, that pull doesn't disappear when we walk through the church doors. In this final message of the Unworldly series, Dr. Mike Griffin takes us to Matthew 20 to ask a question that cuts right to the heart: is your ambition about your glory, or God's?

Through the story of James, John, and a mother who just wanted the best for her sons, we see how easily worldly ambition can dress itself up in spiritual clothes — and how lovingly Jesus exposes it and redirects it toward something better. The good news isn't that we have to stop being ambitious. It's that Jesus redeems our ambition and points it toward something that will actually last.

If you've ever found yourself chasing recognition, comparing yourself to others, or wondering why your drive feels a little hollow — this message is for you. There is a better ambition, and it starts with asking a different question every morning.

🔥 Ephesians 5:1-17 📅 July 12, 2026 📖 Unworldly Series 🎤 Pastor Jared Rhodes

The average American spends over seven hours a day looking at a screen — more than we sleep, more than we spend with the people we love. So here's the honest question Pastor Jared Rhodes brings to Ephesians 5: is your life being shaped by algorithms, or transformed by the Holy Spirit?

This message isn't a guilt trip about technology — it's a practical and encouraging look at what it actually means to walk in love, live in the light, and move through life with purpose. From imitating God's love to illuminating the world around us, Paul's words to the church in Ephesus speak just as clearly to us today as they did to a city saturated with competing voices and values.

Whether you've been feeling pulled toward passivity, distracted from what matters, or just wondering what a Spirit-shaped life looks like in a screen-saturated world — this one's worth a listen.

🔥 Luke 12:13-40 📅 July 5, 2026 📖 Unworldly Series 🎤 Taylor Cannon

What would it look like to hold your possessions a little more loosely? In this message from the Unworldly series, guest speaker Taylor Cannon walks us through Luke 12 to tackle one of Jesus' most countercultural teachings: storing up treasure in heaven instead of here on earth.

This isn't a guilt trip about money — it's an invitation to see generosity differently. Jesus reminds us that our lives are worth far more than what we own, that God already knows what we need, and that giving isn't losing something for nothing. It's trading something temporary for something that lasts.

If you've ever felt tied down by the desire for more, or wondered what it really means to live with an open hand, this message is an encouraging and practical look at why — and how — we can live untethered from the things of this world.

What does it really mean to live differently from the world around us? In this first message of the Unworldly series, Dr. Scott Wilson takes us to 1 John 2:15-17 to ask an honest question: if someone looked closely at our lives — our habits, our desires, our priorities — would they be able to tell we belong to Jesus? This message walks through what it looks like to love God instead of loving the world, and why that's not about a list of rules, but about where our hearts are really set. Whether it's the pull to chase more, to be seen as successful, or to just blend in, we all feel that tension. The encouragement here is simple: the world is passing away, but the things of God last forever — so that's where our love belongs. Wherever you find yourself caught up in the things of this world, this message points us back to the one love that can replace it: a deeper love for Jesus. 🔥 1 John 2:15-17 📅 June 28, 2026 📖 Unworldly Series 🎤 Dr. Scott Wilson

What does it look like to be the kind of man heaven can point to? In this Father's Day message, Dr. Scott Wilson takes us to the opening verses of Job to meet a man God Himself held up as an example — not because his life was easy, but because of the kind of man, husband, and father he chose to be. Through Job's story, we see what it means to put God first, to treasure our families, to work hard and find real joy together, and to carry our kids before the Lord in prayer. It's a picture of fatherhood that's worth chasing, whether you're a dad, a granddad, or simply someone who's been shaped by one. Wherever you are this Father's Day — leading a family, longing for one, or just grateful for the men who've pointed you to Jesus — this message is an encouragement to keep growing into the example God is calling you to be. 🔥 Job 1:1–5 📅 June 21, 2026 📖 Father's Day Message 🎤 Dr. Scott Wilson

Relationships can be complicated. Hurt, conflict, misunderstandings, and broken trust can leave deep wounds that last for years. In Genesis 33, we see one of the Bible’s most powerful pictures of reconciliation as Jacob and Esau meet again after twenty years of separation.

In this message, we explore how God’s grace not only reconciles us to Himself through Jesus Christ, but also empowers us to pursue reconciliation with others. Whether you need to seek forgiveness, extend forgiveness, or trust God with a broken relationship, this passage offers hope and practical wisdom for the journey.

Sometimes God brings us to the end of ourselves so we finally learn to depend on Him. In Genesis 32, Jacob finds himself in the middle of fear, uncertainty, and crisis. As he prepares to face Esau, the brother he wronged years earlier, God meets him in a way he never expected — through a night of wrestling that would leave him forever changed. This message explores five kinds of grace we all desperately need: • Relentless grace • Attentive grace • Patient grace • Subduing grace • Transforming grace When God humbles us, breaks our self-sufficiency, and teaches us to cling to Him, it’s not punishment — it’s grace. Like Jacob, we often discover that true strength only comes when we stop relying on ourselves and hold tightly to the Lord. No matter what season you’re walking through, God is present in the struggle, faithful in the wrestling, and able to transform you through it. 🔥 Genesis 32:1–32 📅 May 31, 2026 📖 Unstoppable Grace Series 🎤 Pastor Scott Wilson
