Listen along as Captain Rich Pease shares portions from the books of Deuteronomy and Joshua about being strong in the midst of change.

"But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves. For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man who looks intently at his natural face in a mirror. For he looks at himself and goes away and at once forgets what he was like. But the one who looks into the perfect law, the law of liberty, and perseveres, being no hearer who forgets but a doer who acts, he will be blessed in his doing." James 1:22-25 English Standard Version © Crossway Bibles

This week, Captain Martha ties up out H.E.A.R.T. acronym with a powerful message about Training For Ministry.

There is often a different standard of holiness presented by the Church at large today. But when one reads their Bible apart from that standard and instead focuses on The Almighty's they will find that God really is unchanging and His word really is unchanging and has the exact same relevance for modern day believers in Messiah as it did for the children of God in the days of old. God calls us to a different standard of holiness... HIS standard. Fortunately for us we have a real living example of what living that standard looked like. His name was Jesus of Nazareth. He is our Master and if we are truly His disciples, our walks and our lives will naturally mimic His. This week Captain Don Sheppard takes us through a refreshing journey of scripture to rediscover what it really means to be remaining in Messiah through Discipleship.

This is a little late but was a very busy week around here. Last week Majors Donald and Arvilla Hostetler, our Divisional Commanders visited us here at The Pendleton Corps (always a pleasure). Listen along as Major Donald Hostetler shares with us about false teaching.

With Captain Don and the men out of town for a men's retreat, Soldier Emily Ward brings us a great message about adoring our Lord through worship. Follow along as we look at Psalm 145 and Romans 12. Enjoy!

We are a Church, an Army, that is called out by God, empowered by the Holy Spirit; to be actively mobilized in Recruiting, Enlisting, and Training followers of Jesus Christ & Deploying them in to Ministry. Listen along as Captain Donald Sheppard shares with us the H.E.A.R.T. of The Salvation Army Pendleton Corps. Also, last week was a busy one so we will include last week's (5-3-09) sermon in the player below. In last weeks sermon, Captain Don tells us how to share Jesus without fear! Enjoy!

INTRODUCTION: 1 Peter 2:24-25; Exodus 12:39; 1 Corinthians 5:7-8 "I know that youa re looking for Jesus, who was crucified. He is not here; He has risen, just as He said." Matthew 28:5-6 MAIN POINTS: Isaiah 52:13-53:12 In chapter 53, Isaiah vividly portrays the suffering of Jesus Christ. The climax of Christ's suffering was His crucifixion, when He was "led as a lamb to the slaughter" (53:7). Medical experts who have studied crucifixion report that it was designed to maximize the victim's pain. I man who was to be crucified was usually exhausted from mistreatment by the time he reached the site of the execution. After the victim was placed on the planks of wood that formed the cross, heavy nails were driven through his wrists in a way that allowed his arms some flexibility and movement. His feet were then crossed and a nail was driven through his arches. When the cross was raised up and dropped into place, the weight of his body on the spikes caused excruciating, fiery pain to shoot through his upper body. If he attempted to ease his pain by pushing upward on his feet, the agony shifted to his lower body. Eventually the arms tired, and throbbing cramps developed in his muscles. These made it increasingly difficult to breathe, resulting in a buildup of carbon dioxide in the lungs and bloodstream. In a way, this was a blessing because it dulled the cramps somewhat, enabling him to push himself upward again for breaths of air. This cycle of agonizing cramps and partial asphyxiation went on for hours. The rough wood of the cross rubbing against the man's back tore away tissue. The chest cavity started to fill with serum and began to press on the heart, causing the organ to struggle to pump ever-thickening blood through the body. Shock and chill of death began to set in. Finally, the condemned man gave in and welcomed death as an end to his suffering. Deuteronomy 16:3 – "...the bread of affliction..." 1 Corinthians 11:23-31 – "...A man ought to examine himself..." Doctine #7 We believe that repentance towards God, faith in our Lord Jesus Christ, and regeneration by the Holy Spirit, are necessary for salvation.
