Voices from the Mountain

This Sunday’s Voices from the Mountain message drew from Ezekiel 8:12 and carried the theme: “You Can’t Do Wrong and Get By.” The teaching reminded listeners that Israel repeatedly turned from God, hiding sin in the dark while still performing outward rituals, but God sees all. The prophet Ezekiel was shown how the people’s secret abominations led to God’s glory departing from the sanctuary. The message emphasized that sin cannot be excused or hidden—eventually it will be exposed, because God is light and in Him is no darkness. It warned against using “I’m just human” as a crutch, against worshiping traditions instead of God Himself, and against searing our conscience by repeated disobedience. The heart of the sermon was clear: repentance and humility bring mercy, but ignoring conviction leads to judgment. Ultimately, the call was for soul-searching, honesty before God, and living in the light, because no one can do wrong and get by.

This Sunday School message from Voices from the Mountain centered on Romans 12:1–3, urging believers to present their bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God. The teaching highlighted that everything begins with God’s mercy—without it, none of us could stand—and that true sacrifice means offering our very best, not leftovers. It reminded listeners that growth in Christ is ongoing, that our righteousness alone is insufficient but covered by the blood of Jesus, and that humility keeps us dependent on Him. The lesson also stressed unity in the body of Christ, where each member has a role to play, and transformation through the renewing of the mind so we can discern God’s perfect will. Ultimately, the call was clear: it is our reasonable service to live daily as close to Jesus as possible, striving to be a living sacrifice that glorifies Him

In this heartfelt message titled Gaining in Knowledge, Pastor Chad Levan of Sweeton Hill Church urges believers to pursue spiritual growth through deeper understanding of God’s Word. Drawing from 2 Peter 3 and Colossians 1, he outlines seven key areas of growth—knowledge, holiness, obedience, prayer life, worship, fellowship, and discernment—emphasizing that true church growth begins with strong spiritual roots. Levan shares personal reflections and encourages the congregation to move beyond spiritual milk to the meat of the Word, cultivating a faith that is steadfast, Spirit-led, and grounded in truth. The message is a call to prepare for revival by becoming rooted, discerning, and unwavering in the face of worldly distractions.

In this powerful morning message titled Have We Broke the Box?, Pastor Jesse Lockhart draws from Mark 14 to challenge believers to offer extravagant worship like Mary of Bethany, who broke her costly alabaster box to anoint Jesus. Lockhart recounts the emotional story of Lazarus’ resurrection, emphasizing that Mary’s act of worship was rooted in gratitude for what Jesus had done—and faith in what He was about to do. Through vivid testimony and heartfelt preaching, he urges listeners to break their own box of praise, not just for past blessings, but in anticipation of future miracles. The message is a call to worship with abandon, to fill the air with the fragrance of faith, and to trust the One who still calls the dead to life.

With heartfelt urgency, the speaker calls the church to resist fear, stay grounded in prayer, and find peace even in the valley, knowing that God is with us wherever we go.

In “The Wells Are Dried Up,” Bryan Measels preaches from Genesis 26, where Isaac reopens the wells once dug by Abraham but stopped up by the Philistines. He compares these wells to the church — once overflowing with living water but now hindered by the enemy’s influence and worldliness. Measels laments the spiritual drought of the last days, where many have lost interest in true worship, traded holiness for entertainment, and allowed modern trends to replace the Spirit of God. He urges believers to “dig again the old wells” by returning to prayer, holiness, and the preaching of God’s Word, following the example of saints of old. Though numbers may be few, he reminds the faithful to endure, stay true to the old paths, and let the Spirit flow again in the church.Fair View Union-Whitwell TN

In this sermon titled “Lukewarm” from Voices from the Mountain, Jessie Lockhart preaches from Revelation 3:14–22, warning of the Laodicean church age — a generation that has become spiritually complacent. He describes today’s church as rich, comfortable, and self-sufficient, yet void of the Holy Spirit’s power and conviction. Lockhart emphasizes that lukewarmness — neither hot with zeal nor cold in rejection — makes God “sick.” He calls believers to recognize their deep spiritual need, repent of apathy, and seek the purifying fire of God’s Spirit once again. True revival, he says, comes not through emotionalism or modern substitutes, but through holiness, righteousness, and a renewed hunger for God’s presence.
