As we pick back up in the book of Luke, we are reintroduced to a now-grown-up John the Baptist. Once again, Luke makes it clear that the story he is telling is a real one, rooted in history. The person of John is real, and so is the message he proclaims: “baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins.” (vs.3). In doing this, he is preparing the…

In Matthew 28:18-20, we see that disciples of Jesus ought to be baptized just as Jesus was, but why was Jesus baptized? Luke 3:3 tells us that John was “proclaiming a baptism for the forgiveness of sins,” but Jesus had no sins that needed to be forgiven as the sinless Son of God. In Matthew 3:15, we see that Jesus says He is being baptized to “fulf…

Pastor Bogdan Kipko explores the story of a woman caught in adultery from John 8, emphasizing themes of guilt and mercy.

Our world is not as fixed as it seems—both science and Scripture reveal that human consciousness plays a role in shaping reality. Just as quantum physics shows that observation collapses possibilities into a single outcome, Jesus taught that faith manifests the unseen into the seen (Mark 11:23, Hebrews 11:1-3). God designed us as co-creators, with …

Our culture often defines freedom as the absence of rules or responsibilities, but the Bible teaches us that that type of freedom is no freedom at all, instead it is enslavement to sin. In opposition to the world that holds out license as the essence of freedom and religions that seek to burden us with the law and legalism, Jesus calls us into a ne…

Guest Speaker: Jennifer Merrill by Forward Church SermonsOleh Forward Church Sermons

When children get a scrape or cut, they often want a bandage. Bandages can be helpful, they can offer protection for the wound and control the bleeding, but bandaging a wound is not the same as having a wound healed. Many people have deep wounds that they have covered with layers and layers of bandages, those bandages may help to control the bleedi…

All things are possible for those who believe is a quantum reality statement. In Quantum Physics, there is an understanding that matter at its smallest existence exists in a state of superposition, meaning unlimited potentials, at the same time, until someone or something observes the matter. This is true of God’s Kingdom as well. Join us as we tal…

In his sermon, Pastor Bogdan emphasizes the importance of truly recognizing Jesus as the Messiah rather than letting distractions and preconceived notions cloud our vision.

While many of us are tempted to find our value, identity, and meaning in our productivity, it’s also true that we’re also tempted to believe we will find our satisfaction and comfort in consumption. We’re constantly fed the lie that what we’re longing for will be found if we had “just a little more.” The truth is that ultimately true satisfaction i…

The Jews waited for the promise of the arrival of their king who would sit on the throne of David and restore Israel to power. What they didn’t know is that God was speaking of a spiritual, eternal, heavenly kingdom. The good news is God kept His promise, that kingdom is here now, and His reign has begun!…

In his sermon, Pastor Bogdan reflects on the dangers of judging others based on superficial appearances rather than seeking the truth.

“Busy” and “tired.” That’s how so many people describe themselves. We live in a world where so often our value is tied to our productivity. That’s not just true in the world, it’s so often true in the church. We may know that we’re not saved by our works, but we often live as if we will be saved by our work. In the midst of a world that is filled w…

There is no such thing as a solo Christian. Coming to Christ means becoming a part of his church. From the very beginning of the church, we see that, although every individual has to make their own decision about who Jesus is, for those who decide to follow Jesus, they are not only joined with Christ, they are joined with everyone else who has clai…

Pastor Bogdan's sermon focuses on trusting God's perfect timing in our lives, as illustrated in John 7:1-13. He emphasizes that waiting can be difficult, especially in a culture driven by instant gratification and societal pressures to achieve immediate success.

One of the most beautiful truths of the gospel is that Jesus died for us “while we were still sinners.” He knew the real us, not some glossy, photoshopped, curated version for us. He knew us completely, even the parts of us that we’re terrified anyone else would find out about, and yet He loved us so much He died for us. We live in a world that cra…

It's very simple, God has revealed His logic and the best way to live, in His word. His word will show us the steps to take if we will commit our decision making process to His Lordship. We can do it His way, or we can do it our way, which one do you think has a better success rate?Oleh Forward Church Sermons

In his sermon, Bogdan emphasizes that true fulfillment comes from Jesus, the "bread of life," rather than temporary, worldly satisfactions.
