Welcome to a collection of sermons with messages created to encourage, inspire, and serve as a ready option for those Sabbaths when there may not be an in-person speaker available. Each quarter, a new sermon will be added providing messages that speak to the heart of our mission and remind us of God’s ongoing work in our churches and communities. Our prayer is that these sermons will bless your congregations and give you one more tool to strengthen your ministry.

In a world filled with uncertainty, fear, conflict, and darkness, where can we find true hope? In this worship message, “A Light in the Darkness,” we explore the Bible’s timeless answer: Jesus is the Light of the World. Through the story of King Saul, the warnings of Scripture, and the promise of Isaiah, discover why we can trust God’s Word, reject false sources of hope, and find peace, rest, and purpose in Christ—even in the darkest times.

In a world flooded with conspiracy theories—from moon landing doubts to secret global elites—this thought-provoking message cuts through the noise to reveal a deeper truth. Discover why these ideas captivate us, how fear and uncertainty fuel their spread, and what the Bible says about both false conspiracies and the one spiritual conflict that’s truly real. Instead of being distracted or divided, this powerful talk challenges you to stay grounded, strengthen your relationship with Jesus, and focus on your purpose in a time of global confusion. If you’re searching for clarity, hope, and truth in uncertain times, this message is for you.

In this powerful message, RMC president and pastor Dave VandeVere explores a powerful biblical answer rooted in God’s saving grace and calling on our lives. Through the parable of the two sons in Gospel of Matthew and the reminder in Second Epistle to Timothy that God has “saved us and called us,” we’re invited to reflect on more than belief—we’re invited to action. God doesn’t just save us; He calls each of us to join His mission and share His grace with the world. The question isn’t whether God is calling—He is. The real question is: Will we say yes and step into the vineyard?

In this heartfelt message, RMC president and pastor Dave VandeVere explores what it truly means to “clothe ourselves with compassion.” Drawing from the story of Jonah, he reminds us that God’s love reaches even those we might consider undeserving—and that He calls us to reflect that same grace. Through Jonah’s struggle to accept God’s mercy for others, we’re invited to examine our own hearts. Join Pastor VandeVere in rediscovering the heart of a God who never stops pursuing us with patient, transforming love.
