5/20/2018 | Mission Possible: What’s the Holdup? Core Truth: Within the period of about thirty years our first-century fellow-Christians had taken the gospel to most of the Roman Empire. So why – after 2000 years – haven’t we finished the task? What’s the holdup? |
Pastor Don Kroah | ||
5/13/2018 | Jochebed - One of History’s Greatest Mothers! Core Truth: God used a mother’s faith and courage to position her son inside the king’s palace so that one day He could use that very son to save His people from their long years of Egyptian bondage and oppression. |
Pastor Don Kroah | ||
5/6/2018 | Jesus Christ - The Source of All Life Core Truth: Jesus is The Life - the only life there is. All else is dead, no matter how “alive” it may seem at the time. But the good news is that He has come into a dead and dark world to bring that which is dead to life again! |
Jesus Christ - The Way, The Truth and The Life | Pastor Don Kroah | |
4/29/2018 | Jesus Christ - The Source of All Truth Core Truth: Many people believe there is a no such thing as absolute truth. For them, “Truth” is simply whatever they think or want it to be. However, Christ allows no such latitude. He alone is Truth and those who are of the truth will recognize and welcome Him as such. |
Jesus Christ - The Way, The Truth and The Life | Pastor Don Kroah | |
4/22/2018 | Jesus Christ – The Way Back Home Core Truth: From the Fall of Man in the Garden of Eden, God’s one and relentless objective has been to provide a way back home for all who will repent and believe the Gospel, and the mandate upon every Christian is to share that good news with as many as possible. |

4/15/2018 | The Easter Principle, Part III – The Consequences of the Resurrection Core Truth: “There is one event in history that is unparalleled in its effect upon the world – the resurrection of Christ. Nothing like this is had ever happened before, and nothing since has equaled it. When Jesus rose from the grave, the impact was felt immediately and has continued to reverberate throughout the world. This event has shaken not only religions, cultures, and governments; but individuals, as one by one, believers are transformed through Christ’s resurrection power.” (Dr. Charles Stanley) |
The Easter Principle | Pastor Don Kroah | |
4/8/2018 | The Easter Principle, Part II – The Principle of the Resurrection Core Truth: The fundamental truth of the resurrection of Jesus Christ is the irrefutable fact that those who live by faith in Him will never die and the implications of that are profound – both for those who have bowed the knee to Him in repentance and faith … and for those who refuse to do so! |
The Easter Principle | Pastor Don Kroah | |
4/1/2018 | The Easter Principle Core Truth: “God did not abolish the fact of evil: He transformed it. He did not stop the crucifixion: He rose from the dead. The empty tomb opens before the world, telling us it is God Who still has the last word, not ourselves, that on Easter Day life looks forward, onward, upward, God-ward.” (Dorothy L. Sayers; Elmer S. Freeman) |
The Easter Principle | Pastor Don Kroah | |

2/25/2018 | Chosen for Fruitfulness – God’s Plan for Every Believer Core Truth: The secret of a truly fruitful Christian life lies not within ourselves but in the One Who lives within us and simply seeks our permission to live His life through us in every moment of our lives. |
Chosen for Fruitfulness | Pastor Don Kroah | |
2/18/2018 | It’s Four Months Until Harvest – What’s the Rush? Core Truth: Christ’s command that we “go into every part of the world and preach the good news of the Gospel” was never a suggestion, nor even a polite request. Rather, it is a divine mandate to every believer, carrying with it the “fierce urgency of NOW.” |
Pastor Don Kroah | ||
2/11/2018 | On Being a Kingdom Influence in 2018, Part Four - How Is Your Light Shining These Days? Core Truth: “We are told to let our light shine, and if it does, we won’t need to tell anybody it does. Lighthouses don’t fire cannons to call attention to their shining - they just shine.” Dwight L. Moody. |
On Being a Kingdom Influence in 2018 | Pastor Don Kroah | |
2/4/2018 | On Being a Kingdom Influence in 2018, Part Three - Wanted: A Few Salty & Shining Christians! Core Truth: While it is easy to criticize the world for its sins, that is not our assignment as Christians.

On Being a Kingdom Influence in 2018 | Pastor Don Kroah | |
1/28/2018 | On Being a Kingdom Influence in 2018, Part Two–Aslan Is on the Move, and He Invites You to Join Him Core Truth: Throughout human history God’s patience toward man’s rebellion has always had limits – from the time of Noah and the Great Flood to punishing Sodom and Gomorrah and more, it has never been a question of if God will finally say “I have had enough”, it has always been a matter of when! |
On Being a Kingdom Influence in 2018 | Pastor Don Kroah | |
1/21/2018 | On Being a Kingdom Influence in 2018 Core Truth: “If you want to make a powerful and lasting impact on the culture, you’ve got to do more than just consume it, critique it, condemn it, or copy it. The only way to truly change the culture is to create something new for it – something that will inspire people enough to reshape their world.” Whitney Hopler |
On Being a Kingdom Influence in 2018 | Pastor Don Kroah | |
1/14/2018 | Excuses: Heard Any Good Ones Lately? Core Truth: Nothing could be worse than to one day stand before our Lord and discover that because we have made room for excuses, we failed to fulfill our divine destiny and thereby limited the rewards He had prepared for us. |
Pastor Don Kroah | ||
1/7/2018 | Things I Love About PHBC! Core Truth: “Divisions in churches never begin with those full of love to the Savior. Cold hearts, unholy lives, inconsistent actions, neglected closets; these are the seeds which sow schisms in the body: but he who lives near to Jesus, wears his likeness and copies his example, will be, wherever he goes, a sacred bond, a holy link to bind the church more closely than ever together. May God give us this, and henceforth let us endeavor to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.” Charles Spurgeon. |
Pastor Don Kroah | ||
12/31/2017 | Just One More Year Core Truth: Scripture says of our Lord, “A bruised reed He will not crush, and a smoldering wick, He will not extinguish, till He leads justice to victory.” This parable has been rightly called “The Gospel of Another Chance and the Threat of the Last Chance.” |

Pastor Don Kroah | ||
12/17/2017 | Zechariah: A Great Man of God Who Also Doubted Core Truth: While young Mary might have been excused for doubting the angel Gabriel’s incredible words to her, she said what the aged Zechariah should have said – “Behold, I am the servant of the Lord: may it be done to me according to Your Word.” And because he permitted his doubts to short-circuit his faith he had to sit in muted silence for nine long months. |
Doubting Our Doubts & Feeding Our Faith | Pastor Don Kroah | |
12/10/2017 | Doubting our Doubts & Feeding Our Faith, Part IV Core Truth: Faith is as important as the air we breathe. It is the fundamental foundation of our existence. People have moved mountains with their faith. Even when situations seemed dire and bleak, it was their faith that carried them through, and it is what will carry us through as we learn to trust God in all things. |
Doubting Our Doubts & Feeding Our Faith | Pastor Don Kroah | |
12/3/2017 | Doubting our Doubts & Feeding Our Faith, Part III Core Truth: Faith is as important as the air we breathe. It is the fundamental foundation of our existence.

Doubting Our Doubts & Feeding Our Faith | Pastor Don Kroah | |
11/26/2017 | Doubting Our Doubts & Feeding Our Faith, Part II Core Truth: The Christian life demands faith; not just in the difficult places of life but when we have been tested to the limit and beyond, and all hope seems gone! Such faith only comes through experience and by a consistent diet of God’s Presence and Word. |
Doubting Our Doubts & Feeding Our Faith | Pastor Don Kroah | |
11/19/2017 | Should a Christian Ever Have Doubts? Core Truth: The question is not whether we should or not, because the fact is that we do! In fact, from the beginning of time, some of God’s greatest servants have had times of real and serious doubts. The real question is what should we do when we experience doubts in our own journeys of faith. |
Doubting Our Doubts & Feeding Our Faith | Pastor Don Kroah | |
11/12/2017 | Living Fearlessly in a Fear-Filled World Core Truth: At a time when we seem surrounded by troubles and our world is being shaken on every side, our Lord’s words are meant to remind us that it is all part of His eternal plan and is intended to prepare us for the life with Him that is to come! |
Pastor Don Kroah | ||
11/5/2017 | Religious Persecution Pray. Speak. Act. Silence in the face of evil is itself evil: God will not hold us guiltless. Not to speak is to speak. Not to act is to act. (Dietrich Bonhoeffer) |
Frank Wolf | ||
10/29/2017 | Christian Stewardship: God’s Plan & Purpose for Every Believer, Part 3: The Law of Sowing & Reaping Core Truth: As certain as the law of gravity or any other of Nature’s laws, so certain is the law of seed and harvest – for whatever a person sows, that and that only is what he will reap. |

10/22/2017 | Christian Stewardship: God’s Plan & Purpose for Every Believer Part 2: Empty Your Pockets!

Don Foster | ||
10/8/2017 | Christian Stewardship: God’s Plan for Every Believer Part 1: The Meaning of Biblical Stewardship Core Truth: Christian stewardship does not begin with one’s money, nor is that even its primary focus. Rather, biblical stewardship is so radically all-inclusive that it encompasses everything about us as human beings – even down to the very breath God gives us to breathe. |
Christian Stewardship-God’s Plan for Each Believer | Pastor Don Kroah | |
10/1/2017 | The Key to Living the Good Life! Core Truth: Everyone has their own definition of what it means to live “the good life,” and certainly no one wants to live a “bad life.” However, our core truth today is that God Himself has already prepared such a life for each one of us and our task is to discover exactly what that is and begin to live it. |
Pastor Don Kroah | ||
9/24/2017 | The High Price of Skepticism Core Truth: Just as with Israel of old, a great danger facing us as Christians today is the danger of allowing the world’s spirit of disbelief and skepticism of God’s promises to shape our thinking, affect our decisions, and govern our lives in these times of difficulty and crisis. |
Pastor Don Kroah | ||

Pastor Don Kroah | ||
8/27/2017 | Called to Live A Holy Life Core Truth: The holiness of God is not merely a theological construct fit for the “ultra-religious” who may seem to have the interest and stamina to pursue it. Rather, God’s holiness and our relationship to it should be a matter of serious concern to every person who claims the name of Christ. |
Pastor Don Kroah | ||
8/20/2017 | (Counter)factual History Core Truth: Christ has been raised from the dead. We have endless hope! |
Matthew Del Valle | ||
8/13/2017 | When God Stops Speaking … and Begins to Act Core Truth: “There’s a time when God says ‘Enough!’ Enough to a nation; enough to a church; enough to an individual. He gives grace, He gives mercy and He gives space to repent. But when man persists in his rebellion, God will not continue forever to give him space. There comes a time when God draws a line, when God says, ‘That’s it!’ “ |

7/9/2017 | Giants in the Land! (And What to do About Them), Part 2 Core Truth: Life is filled with “giants in the land,” and as we face the giants in our own lives, a choice always will have to be made: Do I let my mind and emotions focus on my giant’s size and roar? Or do I choose to focus on the God Who has promised to never leave nor forsake me, no matter how big my giant seems or how loud its roar? |
Giants in the Land! (And What to do About Them) | Pastor Don Kroah | |
7/2/2017 | Giants in the Land! (And What to do About Them) Core Truth: “Unbelief never lets us get beyond the difficulties – the impregnable cities and the impossible giants. It preoccupies itself with them, brooding over them, pitting them against mere human resources. Faith, on the other hand, though it never minimizes the dangers and difficulties of any circumstance, looks away from them to God and counts on His invisible presence and power.” David H. Roper in Our Daily Bread. |

Pastor Don Kroah | ||

(Colossians 1:10) |
Pastor Don Kroah | ||
3/12/2017 | Resting in the Grace Wherein We Stand Core Truth: Israel wasted 40 long years wandering in the wilderness because they refused to believe that God had given them a land where everything had been prepared and that the work was completely finished.

Pastor Don Kroah | ||
2/26/2017 | A First Lady's Prayer Core Truth: "Prayer does change things, all kinds of things. But the most important thing it changes is us. As we engage in this communion with God more deeply and come to know the One with whom we are speaking more intimately, that growing knowledge of God reveals to us all the more brilliantly who we are and our need to change in conformity to Him. Prayer changes us profoundly." (R.C. Sproul) |

12/18/2016 | The Unopened Gifts, Part III - The Gift of Prayer Core Truth: "We tend to use prayer as a last resort, but God wants us to be it to be our first line of defense. We pray when there's nothing else we can do, but God wants us to pray before we do anything at all. Most of us would prefer, however, to spend our time doing something that will get immediate results. We don't want to wait for God to resolve matters in His good time because His idea of 'good time' is seldom in sync with ours." (Oswald Chamber) |
The Unopened Gift | Pastor Don Kroah | |
12/11/2016 | The Unopened Gifts, Part II Core Truth: God is a giver. In fact, He is the greatest of all givers and takes great pleasure in giving, always giving only good things. He is never stingy and when He gives He overwhelms the recipient. |

7/24/2016 | Making Our Calling and Election Sure Core Truth: The issue is not one of losing one's salvation; it is rather an admonition to make certain that one is indeed called and elect of God as evidenced by the fruits of one's daily life in Christ. |

7/3/2016 | The Blessing of Waiting and the Sin of Impatience Core Truth: As evidenced by our microwave meals, instant messages / text messages, and so many other things that require little time or patience, we live in a culture that is not good at waiting.

6/12/2016 | Principles of Christian Giving Though tithing in and of itself is not a 'cure-all' for the financial difficulties in which we may find ourselves from time to time, and while not all Christian teachers or leaders even agree that it is required of Christians today, if done in faith it can be a very important 'first step' in a Christian's journey of obedience to God, the advancing of His kingdom on the earth, and experiencing of God's blessings in one's own life. |
Giving that Pleases God & Blesses the Giver | Pastor Don Kroah | |
6/5/2016 | Christian Giving that Pleases God & Blesses the Giver Core Truth: 'Christian stewardship begins with God at the center. When stewardship revolves around any other center, it is misconceived.' Our giving reflects our true priorities and indicates our obedience to our Creator's command 'You shall have no other gods in place of Me.' |
