Apologia Church

A preacher recounts three decades of street outreach to Mormons and the surprising conversions that followed.

A sermon challenging men to reject passivity, pride, and cowardice while embracing leadership, protection, and provision. Biblical figures are examined for both strength and failure.

Jeff Durbin -Titus 2:3-5- We are going to spend two weeks looking into some of the common and prevailing sins that men and women struggle with as men and women. This week, we are going to start with some of the common struggles of women that we see addressed in Scripture. We're going to start with women because my hope is to end with the need for men to take primary responsibility for dealing with the sins of both groups. May God us this short series to sanctify us both and make us more like our Savior!

-Proverbs 29:18- In our study of God's Book of Divine Wisdom we are now meditating upon the role that God's Revelation has in protecting and preserving, not only our lives, but the lives of those around us. When we hide or don't speak the Word of God, the Scriptures are clear, the world will fall apart. People throw off restraint when the Word of God isn't given. May our meditation upon this truth be used to embolden us and allow us to be salt and light so that people will give glory to God!

A focused study on Revelation 21 exploring its Old Testament roots and the phrase about wiping away every tear. A careful defense of Trinitarian language and the deity of Christ using Scripture and grammar.

A sermon exploring how God remains in control amid chaos and suffering. Passages from Proverbs, Psalms, Job, Romans, and Genesis frame sovereignty over trials, kings, and seeming chance.

Jeff Durbin -Romans 5:8- We've been in God's Book of Divine Wisdom for some time. It has been such a blessing and a transformative experience for so many of us. Today, my heart's desire is to focus our minds on the glory and beauty of the Good News of God. A love of God's Wisdom can only come from a heart that has been changed and a relationship of peace with God. That can only come in one way: the Gospel. May God never let our hearts stray from a passion for the Good News. The Good News that God loves sinners like us. The Good News that He has reconciled us to Himself. The Good News of Eternal Life. The Good News that we now have peace. Eternal peace with the God Who is Love. Sola Deo Gloria!

We are continuing our study of the Book of Proverbs. Today, we see God's Wisdom that is testifying to what we see in the whole of Scripture: the goodness and blessing of God's Law. We live in a time with so many turning their eyes away from the goodness of God's Law. Unfortunately, both unbelievers as well as professing believers. Here in God's Wisdom, we see that God calls us to view His instructions in His Law in a different way. A way that leads to light and blessing. May God renew our minds and make us wise like our savior.

A sermon on Proverbs 26:4–5 exploring two contrasting ways to engage those who reject God. Conversations about refusing false neutrality and exposing internal inconsistencies in unbelieving worldviews. Practical examples include debating suffering, atheism's moral claims, and applying these principles to issues like abortion and everyday speech. Biblical reasoning and Jesus' examples frame the approach.

-Jeff Durbin- Proverbs 24:23-26 Today, we continue our study in the Book of Proverbs and are learning about God's call to speak the truth about the evil around us. We are called to abandon the commitment we have to our favorite faces (partiality) and to tell the truth about the evil or sin that we are presented with There are consequences for blurring the lines of what is actually true. Good ones and bad ones May God create in us a humble boldness and we shine the light of His Truth into the world around us.
