Blomkest Baptist Church

Welcome to this week's sermon. We've been able to meet outside every Sunday recently, and it's been great to look at the early church and learn lessons from the people who first preached of a resurrected Christ. Three of the things we focused on while looking at the eighth chapter are: God uses and works in all circumstances The Holy Spirit provides Always be ready for God to move Watch how the Holy Spirit moves Philip in this chapter, how Philip responds and the results that follow. God moves through Philip during  his journey, not just at the end destination point. As a church, we need to be ready to be a part of the movements of God as they happen, and be available to the proddings of the Holy Spirit.   Want to get a hold of us? Email us by clicking here.

This week, Pastor Jeff was preaching in Benson at First Baptist Church, and Jason Haug was filling the pulpit in Blomkest. Both were preaching out of Acts chapter seven. We're going to upload the video of Jeff's message in Benson, as well as the audio from Jason's message (coming soon). Blomkest has been meeting outside when possible this summer, due to COVID19 concerns. We appreciate everyone's patience and involvement during this time.  Acts 7 focuses on Stephen's response to the allegations manufactured towards him in Acts 6. Stephen uses his words to point out the history of God's people and how the religious leadership keep missing the message (and messengers) that God is sending them.  To follow along in Acts 7, click here .

What's our witness? In Acts 6, Stephen is introduced to us as a man filled with the Holy Spirit. We see him first brought into the scene as a man who will lead in serving the needs of people with food distribution, but he's also preaching. Here's what we see in this chapter: Intentionality. Unity. A submission to the Holy Spirit. Here's some questions to ask ourselves as we study: Who are we being taught by -- The world, or Jesus? Who are we teaching? What's our witness to the world?

Greetings! We had our first service back on site since the COVID outbreak. We hosted it outdoors, and we'll plan on doing that for the June 14th service and as many summer services as we can. There are three things we focused on while looking at this chapter: Who's speaking to us? Who are we listening to? How are we responding We'll post more resources on this sermon link later, but for now, enjoy the message.

Greetings, the following is a message from Pastor Jeff: It's been a tough few months for a lot of us. We miss meeting together. Some of us have been sick. Some of us have had financial hardships. Some of us are tired of being overwhelmed by news coverage. We miss how things were and want to get back together. (Info on that here) This week has seen tragedy in Minnesota, as we saw a man killed in Minneapolis by a police officer, and the unrest that followed and spread throughout the country. Information has been coming at us from all angles, some true, some false, and all of it at once. It's exhausting, it's frustrating, a lot of people are anxious and a lot of people need hope right now. Through my job as chaplain with United Campus Ministry, I meet and work with a lot of young men of color. They are often up here to pursue an education while applying their talents in athletics to earn a scholarship to go on to more education. I hear a lot of their concerns, and th...

We're still online, and we're still doing the best that we can. We hope that you are, as well.  We're working through a process on when and how we can gather together physically again, and we appreciate your prayer and support (and patience) as we go through this process together. If you need prayer for anything or to get a hold of us, email us by clicking here . This week's message is from Acts 4. We're going to cover the first half of the chapter in this message. Please notice the beauty in the Holy Spirit transforming ordinary men into bold healers and speakers. Note where the praise goes and how the truth is proclaimed.  Let us be bold with our love and the truth of God this week.  Once again, we'd like to remind you that only the first video posted is what we intend to share. Anything else that follows each video is a suggestion by Youtube based on algorithms. Typically, we will post the sermon video and then a few songs to accompany the message. We c...

Greetings, we're into week number three of our look into the book of Acts. We want to look at the early church and explore how their lessons can apply to our current life of following Jesus. Notice in this chapter that there's power in the name of Jesus. See how Peter uses the Old Testament and its prophets to confirm the identity of Jesus. Finally, see the hope that rests in the reality of the promise that Jesus fulfills -- that we have a God that has made a way for us to be his people. Thank you for joining us again this week.
