"Nearness to God, Likeness to Christ, Love to Others, Hope to the World"
Jay McCarl’s and Other’s Excellent Sermons…
Who was “The Man” who visited Daniel after being detained by “The Prince of Persia” for three weeks? How could the devil restrain such an overwhelming, formidable being so that they even required an archangel’s help to escape? The answers will surprise you—and might even change your relationship with God Himself…
(Correction: Jay’s reference to “Matthew 7” should be “Matthew 17”)
Another great message from Bob Clark that begs the question, why are you still a Christian? From 1 John 1:9, may you be more blessed than you ever knew…
Prophecy Update: In Bible prophecy, numbers are language—God uses them to simplify what He wants us to “know and understand”. So—what about those “70 weeks” that Gabriel told Daniel? Simple, terrifying, glorious. Much more than about the “70 weeks”—this update might leave you breathless…!
Special Audio Supplement (below): Daniel prophesied that in the Last Days the Jewish Temple would be rebuilt—but where? The Jews are intent on putting it back on the Temple Mount—which could cause another world war. Today, however, many Christians say that history got it wrong—that the original site was elsewhere and the Temple Mount was actually the Roman Antonia Fortress. Here are my thoughts on the controversy (read from Pastor Jay’s essay, The Controversy of the Jewish Temple Location, which you can also read HERE).
What were those mysterious ‘sevens’ spoken of by the angel Gabriel to Daniel? In fact, they’re not difficult at all—and they reveal wonders, both tremendous and terrifying. And they weren’t only for Daniel or the Jewish people, but a warning for everyone at the world’s end…
The angel Gabriel interrupted Daniel while he was praying and told him things both grim and glorious. Gabriel began with the glory—revealing not only what the end of the world would be like, but what follows—and even what happens after after that. Glorious, simply glorious…
What can Christians learn about God from 9/11? Why did He allow that act of terror—and what do we do with His challenging answer? Another great message from Pastor/Chaplain Jim Milne.
Israel’s Exile to Babylon was ending, but many of the people were still ignoring God. When Daniel intervened and prayed on their behalf, it was a game-changer for Israel, for Daniel and for all people everywhere. That means you, too—listen carefully…
What provoked God to exile His people to Babylon for 70 years? Daniel, Jeremiah and Moses knew—and it’s the key that opens the door to one of the most stunning Messianic End-Times prophecies in all of Scripture. Stay Tuned…
(PART 2) Before Jesus returns, the Bible says the Antichrist will ravage the world. But the Bible also tells us what he’s like in specific terms—that he’s a master deceiver and that God doesn’t want the world—or the Jewish people—to confuse this ‘Beast’ with His Son. And Daniel’s visions are the key… (Includes Afghanistan-in-Prophecy update)
Paul told the Ephesian church ‘when you get angry, don’t sin’ — but is ‘righteous indignation’ possible, even in God’s eyes—or is it simply a myth? If you ever get angry, this message is for you…
Before Jesus returns, the Antichrist will afflict the world—the Bible says so. But the Bible also tells us what he’s like in specific terms—that he’s a master deceiver and that God doesn’t want the world—or the Jewish people—to confuse this ‘Beast’ with His Son. And Daniel’s visions are the key…
To understand the Book of Revelation, the Antichrist and the Return of Jesus Christ, you need to understand the Book of Daniel. This message is a thrill-ride through the most terrifying parts of the end of the world. Fasten your seatbelts…!
Why did Jesus refer to himself as the “Son of Man”? Daniel tells us—and the Gospels and Jesus shine in a whole new light. Why is this important? It points to the judgment of the Antichrist by the True Christ. (Daniel 7, Part 2) [Edited]
If you understand Daniel chapter 7, you’ll understand much of the Book of Revelation. Daniel saw visions of monsters—one of whom was the Antichrist—and Revelation tells us how we know. A powerful alert to the world—from the past—about our future…
Daniel was a man who couldn’t be cancelled—and for good reason. Who knows? —for the same reasons people thousands of years from now may be praising God for you, too…
A mighty king was tricked into condemning Daniel for doing what he did every day for last 70 years—praying to God and living a life of integrity. It was politics it its most insidious and lethal—until God showed up again. The lessons here are life-altering and powerful—and more relevant than ever. Listen carefully… Pastor Jay | Daniel 6, Part 1
God loves us, but He won’t be trifled with. In Belshazzar’s case, God put it in writing—and that same night both Belshazzar and Babylon fell. The question now is what would He write to us? Pastor Jay McCarl | Daniel 5

Pastor Jay McCarl | John 11:55-12:19 | As He rode into Jerusalem, Jesus told the Jewish leaders that should His disciples silence their rejoicing, the rocks themselves would cry out. His disciples continued shouting so the rocks stayed quiet, but a day is coming when they will cry out—and it will be greater than anything-anyone-anywhere has ever known. Here’s what’s coming…
Pastor Brit Grim | Galatians 6:1-16 | You gotta hear this one…
Pastor Jay McCarl | Acts 28:11-31 | Today’s church looks ahead to a shining new direction tempered by great uncertainty about its future. Perhaps we should be looking in the rearview mirror at the newborn church, who knew exactly what they were and why…

Pastor Jay McCarl | Acts 26 | Almost a Christian? There’s no such thing—as King Agrippa learned when he put Paul on trial… [Note: “My mouth occasionally moves faster than my brian. At one point I referred to ‘Festus’ as ‘king of the Jews’ when I meant to say ‘Agrippa’ (but you likely figured that out already).” —Jay]

Pastor Jay McCarl | In all the tainted history of the church, where did it go wrong? The answer lies in terse exchange between the Apostle Paul and a very corrupt high priest. (Acts 22:22-23:10)
Pastor Jay McCarl | Acts 21:27-22:22 | As he faced murder by a rioting mob, Paul played every card in his hand to win their souls. The question now is, what ‘cards’ are we playing in the battle for souls? This is no game…
