God's mercy is easy to celebrate when it's extended to us—but what happens when He shows that same mercy to the people we believe least deserve it? In Jonah 4:1–4, Pastor Bob Erbig explores the surprising conclusion to Jonah's mission in Nineveh, where revival sparks resentment instead of rejoicing. As Jonah wrestles with God's grace toward his enemies, we're confronted with a searching question: Is it possible to know God accurately and still be at war with Him? This message challenges us to examine our own hearts, surrender our resentments at the foot of the cross, and embrace God's mission to bring the hope of the gospel to every nation and every neighbor.

In Jonah 3:1–10, Pastor Dave Hentschel shows how the God of second chances sends His Word again, brings an entire city to repentance, and responds with extraordinary mercy. After Jonah’s failure, God calls him back to the mission, and through one reluctant prophet’s simple message, the people of Nineveh—from the king to the least—believe God, humble themselves, and turn from their violence. This passage reminds us that no sinner is beyond God’s reach, no failure is greater than His grace, and no person in our lives should be written off as hopeless. Receive God’s mercy, obey His call, and carry the good news of the God of second chances to others.

In Jonah 1:17–2:10, guest speaker and MBC pastoral summer intern Oliver Aridi shows how God meets Jonah in the depths with mercy, discipline, and salvation. From inside the fish, Jonah learns to pray in panic, repent on the road back to God, and declare with grateful praise that “salvation comes from the Lord.” This message reminds us that God’s provision may not always look like what we want, but it is always what we need, and that even in our lowest places, God is able to bring us up from the pit. Stop running, surrender your heart, and trust the Lord who saves.

In Jonah 1:3–16, Pastor Dave Hentschel shows what happens when God’s people run from his voice and resist his mission. Jonah’s rebellion takes him down into danger, but God lovingly disrupts, exposes, and calls him to surrender—not to destroy him, but to bring him back. This message reminds us that God’s discipline is mercy, that sin is costly, and that Jesus is the greater Jonah who entered the storm of judgment so we could receive grace. Stop running from God, surrender to him, and join his mission.

Guest speaker and MBC World Partner Eric Yee opens Matthew’s Gospel by showing how the genealogy of Jesus is not a passage to skip, but a powerful “season one recap” of God’s redemptive story. From Abraham to David, from exile to Christ, Matthew shows that God always keeps his word, sovereignly came through sinners for sinners, and began a new creation in Jesus. This message connects the family line of Christ to the mission of God among the nations, reminding us that Jesus is the long-awaited Son of Abraham, Son of David, and Savior of sinners from every tribe, tongue, and people. Because Christ has come, may we trust God’s promises, rejoice in his mercy, and live as a new-creation people sent for the sake of the gospel.

In the opening message of Jonah: Running From Mercy, Pastor Bob Erbig begins with Jonah 1:1-4 and challenges us to see Jonah not as a story about a big fish, but about a big God with a heart for the nations. As God sends Jonah to Nineveh, we see the word that sends, the prophet who runs, and the God who pursues with relentless mercy. This message calls us to examine our own Ninevehs, the people or places we resist, and our own Tarshishes, the places we run when God’s mercy offends us. Because salvation belongs to the Lord, may we stop running from God’s call and arise, go, and carry his mercy to the nations.

Can someone be too far gone for God’s grace? In this message from Acts 8:26-40, guest speaker Jack Kraus examines the encounter between Philip and the Ethiopian eunuch—a man who appeared permanently excluded, spiritually disqualified, and unable to participate fully in the covenant community. As Philip opens the Scriptures and proclaims the good news of Jesus Christ, we see God’s heart for outsiders, the sufficiency of Christ for sinners, and the hope of redemption for those who feel like damaged goods. Through the promises of Isaiah and the power of the gospel, this passage reminds us that no one is beyond the reach of God’s saving grace.

Whether you feel unworthy of God’s love, burdened by your past, or tempted to believe someone else is beyond hope, may this message remind you that Jesus Christ came to seek and save the lost.

In the final message of Passing the Faith to the Next Generation, Pastor Dave Hentschel closes 2 Timothy by looking at Paul’s final words and the call to finish well. From a Roman prison cell, Paul reflects on his life as an offering, his race as completed, his faith as kept, and his hope as fixed on the crown of righteousness. This message challenges us to live for eternal reward, continue ministry to the end, trust Christ when people fail us, and pass the faith forward with courage and endurance. Finish well by giving your life fully to Christ and faithfully handing the gospel to the next generation.

In this message from Passing the Faith to the Next Generation, Pastor Bob Erbig walks through 2 Timothy 4:1–5 and warns against the temptation to trade sound teaching for myths that simply scratch our itching ears. In a culture shaped by endless swiping, personalized algorithms, conspiracy theories, and feel-good gospels, Paul charges Timothy, and the church today, to preach the Word, endure the warning, and fulfill the ministry God has given us. Stay anchored in the truth, proclaim Christ faithfully, and finish the race God has set before you.

In this message from Passing the Faith to the Next Generation, Noah Graves walks through 2 Timothy 3:16–17 and reminds us that Scripture is not merely religious advice, but the very Word of God breathed out for our teaching, correction, and formation in righteousness. Through personal testimony, the story of Genesis, and the fulfillment of Scripture in Jesus Christ, this sermon calls us to reject the enemy’s question, “Did God really say?” and instead trust the Bible as God’s sufficient Word that points us to Christ and equips us for every good work. Open God’s Word this week and let it shape you.

In this message from our Passing the Faith to the Next Generation series, Pastor Bob Erbig walks through 2 Timothy 3:1–15 and confronts a pressing question in a culture shaped by AI, shifting truth, and spiritual confusion: is your faith real or counterfeit? Exploring what real faith loves, what it seeks, and what it costs, this sermon challenges us to examine the difference between an appearance of godliness and a life transformed by the power of the gospel, while calling believers to discern truth, reject counterfeit teaching, and remain faithful in difficult times. Real faith isn’t something you can fake—so take an honest look at your life this week and continue in what you have learned.

In this message from 2 Timothy 2:22, Pastor Dave Hentschel continues the Passing the Faith to the Next Generation series by confronting the urgent and often hidden issue of sexual integrity within the church, showing how private compromise can lead to public devastation and why purity is essential for a lasting gospel legacy. Walking through the reality of temptation, the cycle of lust, and the spiritual and even neurological grip of addiction, this sermon calls believers to take sin seriously while offering real hope through God’s design—fleeing temptation, pursuing Christ-centered affections, and building practical guardrails through accountability, confession, and community. With both conviction and compassion, the message makes clear that this is not about shame but about freedom, reminding us that Jesus meets us in our brokenness and offers something far better than what sin promises. Don’t manage sin—run from it, run to Christ, and take your next step toward freedom today.

In this message from 2 Timothy 2:20–26, Pastor Bob Erbig continues the Passing the Faith series by challenging the church to move from passive spectators to engaged “spiritual athletes,” asking who God actually uses to build His kingdom and what it looks like to be ready for that work. Through the framework of “take a bath, run the race, and teach the truth,” the sermon calls believers to ongoing repentance, intentional pursuit of Christlike character, and faithful handling of the gospel in both life and speech, while warning against careless living, divisive attitudes, and spiritual complacency. With clear, practical application, this message presses listeners to examine their readiness, their habits, and their role in the body of Christ, reminding us that our lives directly impact others who are watching, listening, and in need of truth.

Step onto the field, take your faith seriously, and be ready for God to use you.

Pastor Dave Hentschel continues our series Passing the Faith to the Next Generation with a timely message from 2 Timothy 2:14-19 on how a church stays healthy, unified, and anchored in truth. In “How Do We Pass on a Healthy, Unified Church?” he explores what not to fight about, what we must fight for, and how to tell the difference. This sermon challenges believers to avoid pointless quarrels over gray areas, stand firm on essential doctrine, and rightly handle the Word of truth so the church can remain strong for generations to come.

On Easter Sunday, Pastor Bob Erbig opens 2 Timothy 2:8-13 and centers the church on the command, “Remember Jesus Christ risen from the dead,” showing that the resurrection is not merely a comforting tradition or a distant doctrine, but the unstoppable foundation of Christian hope, courage, and mission. Framed through the image of a seed that seems buried and lifeless yet bursts forth with new life, this message explores the person worth remembering, the preaching that cannot be chained, and the promise that cannot be broken, reminding believers that Jesus’ resurrection changes everything from the way we face grief and loss to the way we endure suffering and proclaim the gospel. With pastoral warmth and urgency, Pastor Bob calls the church to see that because Christ truly rose from the grave, death does not have the final word, the gospel cannot be silenced, and the people of God can live with bold resurrection confidence in a world still marked by sorrow.

Because Jesus Christ rose from the dead, the gospel cannot be silenced, the mission cannot be stopped, and God’s promises cannot be broken.

As Millington Baptist Church continues its 175th anniversary year, Pastor Dave Hentschel opens the new series Passing the Faith to the Next Generation by walking through 2 Timothy 2:1-7 and asking a pressing question for every church and Christian institution: how do we prevent gospel drift? Drawing from Paul’s final charge to Timothy, this message explores what it means to hold the line with courage and clarity by depending on God’s strength, entrusting the truth to faithful people, embracing the real cost of ministry, and thinking deeply about what matters most. Through the images of the soldier, athlete, and farmer, Pastor Dave shows that the gospel does not move forward automatically, but through believers who are strengthened by grace, committed to the truth, and willing to suffer, labor, and persevere so the faith can be faithfully passed on to the next generation.

If the church is going to stay faithful, every generation must receive the torch of the gospel and hold it high.

Pastor Bob Erbig continues the “Passing on the Faith” series with a sobering and timely message from 2 Timothy 1:6-18 on what it means to live with courage when faith comes under pressure. As Paul writes from prison to Timothy, he calls him not to retreat in fear or hide in shame, but to fan into flame the gift of God, stand unashamed of the gospel, and hold fast to the truth entrusted to him. This sermon explores the reality of cultural pushback, the temptation to keep faith private, and the Spirit-given power, love, and self-control believers need to remain faithful under fire, while pointing to the beauty of the gospel that makes every cost worth bearing.

May God make us a church that fans the flame, shuns the shame, and breaks the chain of fear for the sake of Christ and His gospel.

As Millington Baptist Church begins a new sermon series through 2 Timothy, Pastor Dave Hentschel opens with a message on the urgency and beauty of leaving a legacy of faith. In 2 Timothy 1:1-5, we are brought into the deeply personal relationship between Paul and Timothy and reminded that the gospel does not move forward automatically. It advances when one generation receives it faithfully and passes it on courageously. This sermon reflects on the messengers, the message, and the method God uses to preserve His truth across generations, while calling the church to embrace its role in passing the torch of gospel faithfulness.

This message also sets the tone for MBC’s 175th anniversary season by connecting the church’s present calling with the sacrifices and witness of those who came before. Pastor Dave challenges the congregation to think carefully about the spiritual legacy they have inherited, the responsibility they now carry, and the next generation that must be prepared to receive the faith. With imagery of relay races, three-chair churches, and Paul’s final letter from prison, this sermon is both a stirring call to gratitude and a bold exhortation to gospel mission.

As we begin this series, may we remember that someone once made room for us to hear the gospel, and may God now use us to make room for someone else.

Dr. Jason Thacker, Director of the Research Institute at The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary and a leading voice on human dignity, ethics, and culture, joins us to open Psalm 8 and help us recover a distinctly biblical vision of what it means to be human. In a cultural moment where personhood, value, and moral worth are often treated as fluid, developmental, or dependent on ability, autonomy, or usefulness, Dr. Thacker reminds us that Scripture grounds our dignity not in what we do, what others think of us, or what we contribute, but in the God who created us, knows us, and crowns humanity with glory and honor. Walking carefully through Psalm 8, he shows how our understanding of ourselves can never be separated from our understanding of God as Creator, Sustainer, and Lord, and how our calling as image bearers flows from His majesty rather than our own self-definition.

Our dignity is secure because it is rooted not in ourselves, but in the majesty of the God who made us.

In this final message of our Upside Down Glory: Disability and the Kingdom of God series, Pastor Bob Erbig turns to 1 Corinthians 15 to ask a deeply personal and eternal question: What happens to disability in the resurrection? Framed by the sobering yet hope-filled reflections of former Senator Ben Sasse, this sermon explores Paul’s powerful imagery of the seed and the resurrection body—sown in weakness, raised in power. Addressing questions about continuity, transformation, identity, and the future of our suffering bodies, Pastor Bob walks carefully through the promise that God does not discard what has suffered but glorifies and redeems it. With pastoral tenderness and theological clarity, this message reminds us that our identity is not rooted in dust, diagnosis, or decay, but in Christ—the Man of Heaven—and that one day, at the sound of the trumpet, death itself will be swallowed up in victory.

Sown in weakness, raised in power—because in Christ, the body that suffers will one day shine with resurrection glory.

In this guest message, Dr. Corey Miller, President and CEO of Ratio Christi, explores a foundational moral question: Is Jesus truly unique when it comes to basic morality? Centered on the Golden Rule and its formulation in Matthew’s Gospel, this sermon examines how people across cultures recognize moral truths—even without hearing Jesus’ teaching directly—and what that universal awareness reveals about the nature of morality itself. Dr. Miller contrasts the Golden Rule with the more passive “Silver Rule” and highlights how Jesus’ positive, proactive command stands apart in both depth and authority. By situating the Golden Rule within its immediate biblical and worldview context, this message argues that Jesus’ moral vision is not merely one voice among many, but evidence pointing toward the truth of Christianity.

When we examine the moral law written on the human heart, we are ultimately confronted with the Lawgiver Himself.

In this second guest message, Dr. Corey Miller, President and CEO of Ratio Christi, addresses what he calls “The Third Revolution” and the growing intellectual challenges facing the church. Examining the rapid cultural shifts of recent years, Dr. Miller explores where these changes originated and how universities have played a formative role in shaping today’s dominant ideas. Reflecting on the phrase, “As go the universities, so goes the culture,” this message considers the major philosophical and ideological currents influencing society and why many believers feel unprepared to engage them. Dr. Miller then turns to what has been called “the scandal of the evangelical mind,” challenging the church to recover thoughtful, rigorous discipleship that equips Christians, parents, and students to recognize and respond to ideas that undermine biblical faith.

If the church is to stand firm in a shifting culture, it must love God not only with heart and strength, but also with a renewed and informed mind.

In week six of Upside Down Glory, Pastor Dave Hentschel opens Romans 8 and 1 Corinthians 12 to explore what it means to be “The Body That Suffers Together.” Scripture tells us that all creation groans under the weight of the fall, and believers groan as well—not in despair, but in hope. This message reminds us that suffering is not a sign of weak faith, but a shared reality in a broken world, and that the Spirit of God intercedes for us even when we have no words left to pray. Yet God never intended His people to suffer alone. Through the image of the church as a body, Pastor Dave calls us to move beyond isolation and independence into interdependence, where every member is needed and every weakness matters. The church is not a crowd that watches suffering, but a body that absorbs it, bearing one another’s burdens with Romans 8 hope and 1 Corinthians 12 hands.

In a groaning world, God forms a people who wait with hope, care with compassion, and refuse to let anyone suffer alone.

In week four of our Upside Down Glory series, Pastor Dave Hentschel walks through 2 Samuel 9:1–13 and Luke 14:12–14 to reveal the heart of a King who seeks out the forgotten and makes room for those the world overlooks. Through the story of Mephibosheth—crippled, exiled, and hiding in Lo Debar—Scripture shows how David’s covenant faithfulness leads him not to eliminate weakness, but to honor it with radical kindness, restoration, and a permanent seat at the royal table. Paired with Jesus’ call to invite the poor, the lame, and the blind to our banquets, this message confronts how easily dignity becomes conditional and hospitality selective. God’s Kingdom, however, is built on chesed—steadfast, covenant love—where grace is extended to those who cannot earn it, repay it, or even believe they deserve it, and where belonging comes before usefulness.

The measure of a Christ-shaped community is not who sits at the center of the table, but whether the forgotten have been invited to it at all

In week three of Upside Down Glory, Pastor Dave Hentschel addresses one of the most difficult and misunderstood questions Christians face: where does disability come from, and what does it mean for our faith when God does not remove weakness? Walking through Exodus 4, Genesis 32, and John 20, this message confronts the popular but unbiblical idea that “God never gives you more than you can handle,” and instead reveals a God who sometimes wounds, withholds healing, and still sends His servants on mission. From Moses’ speech impediment, to Jacob’s lifelong limp, to the resurrected Christ who still bears His scars, Scripture shows that weakness is not accidental, meaningless, or disqualifying—but often the very means through which God dismantles self-reliance and displays His glory. This sermon challenges prosperity-driven assumptions about healing, reframes disability as a place of dependence rather than failure, and calls believers to trust God’s wisdom even when strength is diminished.

God’s Kingdom advances not through unimpaired servants, but through those who cling to Him because they cannot stand on their own.

In week two of our Upside Down Glory series, Pastor Bob Erbig walks through Mark 2:1–12 to show how faith becomes advocacy when it refuses to accept barriers that keep people from Jesus. Centered on the story of the paralytic whose friends literally break through a roof to bring him into Christ’s presence, this message confronts a culture that quietly assigns value based on ability, productivity, and “quality of life.” From modern genetic counseling pressures to healthcare systems that ration care, the same question echoes through the centuries: who decides which lives are worthy of access, dignity, and belonging? Jesus answers that question decisively—by forgiving, healing, and publicly defending a man the world would overlook. This sermon challenges the church to recognize disability ministry as a shared responsibility, calling believers to notice barriers, carry burdens together, and actively advocate for those who are often excluded—before birth and throughout life.

Faith that truly believes Jesus is worth reaching will do whatever it takes to take the roof off and bring others to Him.

In the opening message of our new series Upside Down Glory, Pastor Bob Erbig walks through 1 Corinthians 1:26–31 to confront one of the deepest assumptions of our culture: that strength is the goal and weakness is the problem. Launching in the season of New Year’s resolutions, this sermon exposes how easily we measure worth by wisdom, power, productivity, and self-sufficiency—while Scripture reveals a radically different story. Paul reminds the church that God intentionally chooses what the world calls weak, low, and overlooked to display His power and grace, leaving no room for boasting except in Christ alone. Through biblical teaching, pastoral reflection, and personal testimony, this message reframes disability, limitation, and vulnerability—not as obstacles to God’s work, but as places where His glory is most clearly seen, calling the church to honor the image of God in every person and to live fully into the upside-down values of the Kingdom.

Our limitations are not barriers to God’s glory—they are the very stage on which His power is revealed.

January 4th, 2026

In the final message of our From Ruin to Redemption: The Gospel According to Isaiah series, Pastor Dave Hentschel brings us to the summit of Isaiah’s prophetic vision in Isaiah 65:17–25. This passage unveils God’s promised future—a new heavens and new earth—where sorrow, injustice, futility, and fear are no more. Isaiah is not offering speculative timelines, but reshaping our moral imagination, showing us the world as God originally intended it to be: a world marked by joy instead of weeping, security instead of loss, fruitful work instead of frustration, intimacy with God instead of distance, and peace instead of violence. This sermon challenges the assumption that brokenness is normal or permanent, reminding us that God is not patching the old order but replacing it entirely. As God’s people stand between two worlds—the one that is and the one that is coming—we are called to live now as citizens of that future kingdom, allowing God’s promised world to shape our faith, ethics, hope, and daily lives.

God’s promised future is not an excuse to wait—it is a summons to live now in the joy, justice, and peace of the world He is bringing.

In this Christmas Eve message from our From Ruin to Redemption: The Gospel According to Isaiah series, Pastor Bob Erbig walks through Isaiah 62:1–5 to address the tension many of us feel during the holidays—why life often feels heavier than the picture we present to the world. Isaiah speaks to people who appear faithful on the outside but feel forgotten, weary, or desolate on the inside, and announces the good news of Christmas: God has broken the silence. Through the birth of Jesus Christ, God steps into real darkness, gives His people a new name, and declares His delight over them. This message reminds us that Christmas is not about curated images or perfect lives, but about a God who enters our brokenness, speaks hope into silence, and invites us into a restored relationship through His Son.

Christmas is not proof that life is perfect—it is proof that God has come near, broken the silence, and given us hope in the darkness.

In this message from our From Ruin to Redemption: The Gospel According to Isaiah series, Pastor Dave Hentschel walks through Isaiah 61:1–11 to reveal God’s promise of the reset we all long for. Speaking to weary hearts marked by loss, regret, captivity, and brokenness, Isaiah announces the arrival of God’s Anointed Servant—the Messiah—who comes to bring good news to the poor, heal the brokenhearted, proclaim freedom for captives, and declare the year of the Lord’s favor. This passage shows that God’s plan is not mere improvement or reform, but full restoration: beauty instead of ashes, joy instead of mourning, and righteousness that springs up like a new Eden before all nations. Ultimately, this promised reset is fulfilled in Jesus Christ, who stands in the synagogue and declares that Isaiah’s words are accomplished in Him.

Isaiah 61 reminds us that we are not forever defined by what has ruined us—because in Jesus, God has come to reset, restore, and redeem.

In this message from our From Ruin to Redemption: The Gospel According to Isaiah series, Pastor Dave Hentschel walks through Isaiah 58:1–14, confronting the danger of empty religion and calling God’s people back to the kind of worship that reflects His heart for righteousness, justice, mercy, and peace. Isaiah exposes the worship God rejects—religious activity divorced from love for neighbor—and reveals the worship God desires: lives marked by compassion, integrity, generosity, and the pursuit of restoration in both society and the home. Through Scripture and a powerful closing drama that brings Truth, Mercy, Justice, and Peace into conversation, this message points us to reconciliation as the meeting place of God’s character—and ultimately to Jesus Christ, who perfectly fulfills what Isaiah calls us to become.

In the end, Isaiah 58 reminds us that God restores what we have ruined by drawing us out of hollow religion and into lives shaped by justice, mercy, and reconciliation through Christ.

In this week’s message, guest speaker James Rickershauser leads us through Isaiah 55:1–13, showing how the deep need of every human heart—our hunger for meaning, joy, and fulfillment—is met not by striving or self-made solutions, but by the compassionate call of God to “come to the waters.” From the emptiness of chasing what cannot satisfy, to the Messiah’s invitation to receive salvation freely, to the anchor of God’s unshakeable promises, Isaiah 55 reveals that true life is found not in what we achieve but in the God who abundantly pardons, restores, and satisfies His people.

In the end, Isaiah calls us to stop digging empty wells and to find our lasting joy, hope, and satisfaction in the glory of God alone.

In this week’s message from our Ruin to Redemption series, Pastor Bob explores Isaiah 52:13–53:12 and the profound truth that real peace never comes through negotiation, leverage, or control—it comes through surrender. From the tension of global conflict to the unrest in our own hearts, we often demand peace on our own terms. Yet Isaiah reveals a different kind of peace: one purchased through the Suffering Servant’s rejection, piercing, and the great exchange that makes us righteous.

This Advent, discover the One who was ruined so you could be redeemed—and the peace that begins when you finally lay your weapons down.

November 30, 2025

In this special Vision Sunday message, Pastors Dave and Bob lead MBC into a milestone season—our 175th anniversary year—celebrating God’s faithfulness in the past and clarifying His calling for the future. Through Scripture, stories, and a powerful relay-race illustration, we are reminded that every generation must faithfully pass the baton of the Gospel.

Together, we unveil major initiatives for 2026 and beyond: expanding parking to welcome more people, building a prayer garden, strengthening discipleship pathways, resourcing the next generation, partnering globally with missionaries in Senegal and Romania, expanding local outreach to the VA and City Relief, launching Summerfest, and stepping into a new disability ministry—Upside Down Glory.

Now we unite around the vision God has given our church:
Firmly Planted. Growing Together. Made to Multiply.

In this message from our Ruin to Redemption series, Pastor Bob Erbig unpacks Isaiah 49:1–13—one of the Servant Songs that reveals how God’s chosen Servant cancels the noise of despair with the melody of redemption. Just as noise-cancelling headphones silence distractions, the Gospel quiets the world’s competing voices and tunes our hearts to hope, salvation, and mission.

Discover how the Servant’s melody restores, frees, and unites God’s people—and how we are invited to join the harmony until creation itself sings for joy.

November 16, 2025

In this powerful message from Isaiah 41–46, Pastor Dave invites us into the “Trial of the False Gods,” where God Himself calls the idols of the nations to the stand. Through vivid courtroom imagery, we see the Lord expose the futility of man-made gods—things we create, carry, and ultimately worship—contrasted with the majesty of the one true God who alone carries us.

As the sermon unfolds, we’re confronted with our own modern idols: success, relationships, comfort, or control. Yet Isaiah reminds us that only Yahweh—the Creator who formed the heavens, the Redeemer who knows the future, and the Savior who blots out our sins—can bear the full weight of our hope.

This message calls us to honest reflection: Is Jesus truly our everything, or simply one of many things competing for our devotion? With grace and conviction, Pastor Dave reminds us that every knee will one day bow before Christ—the God who carries His people, redeems them by name, and invites them to find their “everything” in Him alone.

When catastrophe strikes, where do you find comfort? In this message, Pastor Bob Erbig continues our Ruin to Redemption series through Isaiah with a powerful look at Isaiah 40:1–31 — “Comfort in Catastrophe.” From Hezekiah’s indifference to Judah’s exile, we see how God meets His people in their lowest moments, offering comfort, strength, and renewal. Discover four truths that anchor the soul when storms hit: God comforts His people, reigns over creation, calls us by name, and provides certainty in chaos.

Whether you’re in the middle of a storm or waiting for one to pass, this message reminds us that those who wait on the Lord will renew their strength.

November 2, 2025

In this pivotal message from From Ruin to Redemption: The Gospel According to Isaiah, Pastor Dave Hentschel walks through the dramatic story of King Hezekiah, a man who faced impossible odds and found hope through prayer.

From the siege of Jerusalem to a deathbed diagnosis, Isaiah 36–38 reveals a timeless pattern:
The Word of Distress. The Word of Prayer. The Final Word from God.

Discover how God hears your cries, sees your tears, and still delivers His people — in His way and in His time.

October 26, 2025

Across history, humanity has longed for a leader who could bring true and lasting peace — not just between nations, but within the human heart. Isaiah 11–12 reveals that leader: the Spirit-anointed Messiah.

In this message from From Ruin to Redemption: The Gospel According to Isaiah, Pastor Dave Hentschel unpacks Isaiah’s prophecy of a coming King from the line of David: a ruler marked by wisdom, righteousness, and the Spirit of the Lord. He will reign with perfect justice, regather His people, and fill the earth with peace and praise.

Discover how the hope of Israel points to the glory of Christ: the One we’ve all been waiting for.

October 12, 2025

Life in a fallen world can feel sour: full of pain, injustice, and brokenness. In Isaiah 24–25, the prophet paints a vivid picture of judgment and renewal: a vineyard gone wild, a world consumed by fire, and yet a promise that God will restore what was lost.

In this message from From Ruin to Redemption, Pastor Bob Erbig shows how we can live as “sweet grapes” in a sour world—by resting in God’s coming judgment, singing a song of faith amid chaos, and preparing for the feast on His holy mountain. Out of the ashes, God brings joy, justice, and redemption.

October 19, 2025

When the world feels overcome by darkness, violence, doubt, and despair, Isaiah 9 breaks through with the promise of light. In this message, Pastor Bob Erbig reminds us that the deepest darkness is never final, because God Himself has stepped into it. Through the birth of His Son, the “Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace,” God brings hope, joy, and justice to a weary world.

This message also features a special interview with Monique Duson and Krista Bontrager from the Center for Biblical Unity, offering a biblical perspective on justice and true unity in a divided culture.

Join us as we discover how the light of Christ pushes back the shadows, transforms our hearts, and leads us from gloom to glory.

Isaiah 7 drops us into a moment of national crisis: kingdoms conspiring, hearts trembling, and fear spreading like wildfire. In this message, Pastor Dave unpacks Ahaz’s defining moment: a choice between trusting the living God or running to the powers of this world for rescue.

This passage invites us to bring our own fears before the Lord, to resist the urge to control or compromise, and to rest in the promise of Immanuel—God with us. Come and discover how the God who gave a sign to Ahaz has given us an even greater sign in Christ, calling us to stand firm in faith, even when everything around us is shaking.

September 28, 2025

Isaiah 6 lifts the veil between heaven and earth, revealing a vision of God so holy, so glorious, that it both devastates and transforms the prophet. In this message, Pastor Bob unpacks Isaiah’s encounter with the dangerous beauty of God: a holiness that exposes sin, purifies the repentant, and calls them into mission.

This passage invites us to see God as He truly is, to confess our need for His mercy, and to answer His call with courage and surrender. Come and be captivated by the blazing holiness of God and discover how His grace can transform your life and send you into the world with renewed purpose.

September 21, 2025

Isaiah opens like a summons from the heavenly courtroom, confronting the vandalism of shalom and calling God’s people to the upstream work of mishpat (justice). In this message on Isaiah 1:1–31, Pastor Dave faces a week of grief and fear with gospel clarity, showing how God exposes empty religion, commands us to “seek justice, correct oppression,” and lovingly refines His people until righteousness dwells again.

Come be lifted from the noise of the moment to the heart of God: where our sins, though scarlet, are made white as snow, and where justice and mercy meet at the cross. Pastor Dave invites us to trust the Just God who sets things right in us, through us, and one day, in the world.

September 14th, 2025

Isaiah is like climbing a high mountain, lifting us above the false hopes of the world to see God in His holiness, majesty, and grace. In this message, Pastor Dave unpacks the background of Isaiah, its urgent warnings to God’s people, and its timeless invitation to encounter the Holy One of Israel.

Our world that has so many differing views on what is right, and what is wrong. But the

Life often feels like an endless cycle of exhaustion: work, family, responsibilities, and the weight of trying to hold it all together. But in Matthew 11:28–30, Jesus offers a better way: “Come to Me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.”

In this message, Ken Huber continues our "Summer in the Scriptures" series with, an exploration into Christ’s invitation to lay down our burdens, bind ourselves to Him, and discover the true rest only He can provide.

August 24, 2025

We are blessed to have our very own Vince Staiger step up to the pulpit as we continue our "Summer in the Scriptures Series.

Romans 8 has often been called “the greatest chapter in the greatest book,” and for good reason. In this message, we’ll explore why this chapter stands apart among the treasures of Scripture. Moving from Paul’s raw struggle with sin in Romans 7 to the life-giving declaration of “no condemnation in Christ,” Romans 8 unveils the ultimate hope, identity, and glory promised to God’s people. Along the way, we’ll hear insights from theologians such as John Piper and Martin Luther, while reflecting on the Spirit’s work of freedom, adoption, and eternal assurance. If you have ever wrestled with sin, longed for peace, or needed renewed confidence in God’s promises, Romans 8 offers the assurance and hope that only the gospel of Jesus Christ can bring.

In a culture where families often look strong on the outside but are crumbling within, how can we build homes that last for generations?
In this message from our Summer in the Scriptures series, Pastor Bob Erbig unpacks Deuteronomy 6 and Matthew 22, showing three essential pillars of a truly strong family: preserving core biblical principles, saturating our homes with Scripture, and allowing God’s story of redemption to shape our lives.

What does it mean to be a disciple of Christ Jesus? MBC's world partner Clint Watkins dives into this subject as he preaches from the book of 2 Timothy. Here, he continues in week 2 of our sermon series "Summer in the Scriptures".

In this powerful message from our Summer in the Scriptures series, Pastor Dave Hentschel unpacks Philippians 2:1–11 to explore what it means to build a gospel-shaped community. Using vivid imagery like football blindside hits to the humility of Christ, Pastor Dave challenges us to confront our spiritual blind spots and consider who’s protecting our “blind side.” True Christian community isn’t built through self-promotion or shallow connection, but through humility, mutual care, and sacrificial love. Drawing from Paul’s profound Christ-hymn, we’re reminded that "community thrives where self-centeredness dies, and self-centeredness dies when we look to the cross." Discover how relationships with a Paul, a Timothy, and a Barnabas can help anchor you in a life of spiritual accountability and growth. Don’t miss this invitation to go deeper, not just in knowledge, but in Christlike love.

August 3rd, 2025

What does it mean to truly trust God’s provision—and what happens when our hearts crave more?

In this first message from our Summer in the Scriptures series, guest speaker Sidney Bowie of City Relief takes us deep into the Tenth Commandment: “You shall not covet.” With passion, humility, and rich biblical insight, Sidney unpacks the hidden power of covetousness, not just as a behavioral issue, but as a heart condition that subtly erodes our contentment and warps our worship.

Drawing from Exodus 20, Genesis, and Colossians 3, Sidney reveals how covetousness isn’t simply about wanting more—it’s often masked as admiration or inspiration, yet quietly displaces our trust in God and fuels self-centered living. He challenges us to examine the motivations behind our desires and consider whether what we pursue is truly for God’s glory, or our own gain.

This message is both convicting and freeing. It calls believers to root out the idols that quietly grow in our hearts and to rediscover the joy of selfless, outward-focused living, serving the marginalized, embracing gratitude, and finding satisfaction in Christ alone.

If you’ve ever wrestled with comparison, envy, or discontentment—or simply want to live more intentionally in a world that constantly says, “you need more, ”this sermon will reorient your heart toward the God who is enough.

July 20, 2025

What does it mean to “fight the good fight of the faith,” and why is it vital for the future of the Church?

In this passionate conclusion to our Divine Blueprint series, we explore Paul’s final charge to Timothy and what it means for Millington Baptist Church today. As we approach our 175th anniversary, Pastor Bob calls us to look beyond the past and fight for the future: by living with Public Virtue, walking in Pure Obedience, and offering Passionate Praise to the King of Kings.

This message reminds us that spiritual warfare is real, and the stakes are eternal. But the path forward is clear: flee worldly cravings, take hold of eternal life, and guard the deposit of the Gospel.

Whether you’re weary from the battle, new to faith, or seeking clarity in a confusing world, this message will equip you to stand firm, live holy, and worship boldly until Christ returns.

July 13, 2025

What does it really mean to be a Baptist, and why does it matter?

In this powerful message from our Divine Blueprint series, we explore the distinct convictions that have historically defined Baptist churches, convictions rooted not in tradition, but in Scripture. From biblical authority and believer’s baptism to congregational governance and religious liberty, we walk through the B.A.P.T.I.S.T.S. acronym to show how each core belief shapes the way we “do church” today.

With historical stories like that of Fritz Erbe, insights from Baptist leaders like Spurgeon, and a clear comparison of church structures and ordinances, this sermon is both a theological deep dive and a practical challenge to live with conviction in today’s culture.

Whether you’re a lifelong Baptist, new to church, or just exploring what makes different denominations unique—this message will equip you to think biblically, live faithfully, and commit meaningfully to the local church.

July 6, 2025

Does Money Make Us Happy? In a world driven by wealth, we often chase financial security, early retirement, and material comfort. But what if the deeper issue isn’t money itself, but our love of it?

In this message from our Blueprints series on 1 Timothy, Pastor Bob confronts the powerful lure of money, examines the FIRE movement (“Financial Independence, Retire Early”), and offers a gospel-shaped perspective on true contentment. Drawing from Paul’s words in 1 Timothy 6:3–10, we’re invited to trade worldly cravings for eternal priorities, and discover that godliness with contentment is great gain.

June 29, 2025

What does it mean to live as a missionary—without changing your job, your country, or your title?

In this special message from John White, a WorldVenture missionary and teacher in Ukraine, we’re challenged to view the Christian life through the lens of gospel multiplication. Drawing from 2 Timothy 2:1–7, John unpacks how strength, calling, sacrifice, and integrity form the foundation of a missionary life—one that every believer can live, wherever God has placed them.

You’ll hear stories from the frontlines in Ukraine, learn from church history, and discover how to pass the faith on to “one more person.” Whether you’re called across the globe or across the street, this message will stir your heart to live faithfully and fruitfully for Christ.

June 22, 2025

When leaders fall, entire communities feel the shockwaves. In this sobering yet hope-filled message from 1 Timothy 5:17–6:2, we confront the importance of integrity in spiritual leadership, especially in light of recent headlines that have rocked the Christian world.

What does it mean to lead with character when the spotlight fades? How can churches protect both the innocent and the vulnerable? How do we raise up the next generation of faithful leaders? And what does Father’s Day teach us about the weight—and power—of a father’s influence?

Join us as we explore four vital spheres of leadership integrity: compensation, accusation, ordination, and vocation. Whether you’re a pastor, parent, employer, or just someone trying to walk faithfully with Christ—this message is for you.

Can the Church Cure Loneliness? Loneliness is a growing epidemic, but what if the local church holds the cure? In this sermon from 1 Timothy 5:1–16, we explore how God’s design for the family of faith provides an antidote to isolation. Through Paul’s practical wisdom, we learn how respectful relationships, intergenerational care, and purposeful service can transform a disconnected world. Whether you're feeling alone or looking to serve those who are, this message will challenge and equip you to live out the gospel in real, relational ways.
