OUR PASTOR

If you are looking for a speaker that really tries to connect with his audience, Jeremy works hard to make his messages practical, relatable, and understandable.  Since 2003, Jeremy has been working on his skills as a speaker and takes the job of bringing God's Word to the listeners seriously.  In fact, his #1 goal when he started preaching was "Don't be boring!"  Jeremy comes across as a regular guy - not putting himself "above" those he is teaching.

Why Jesus? | Impact Church Reynoldsburg

Jesus: Magician or Miracle Worker?| Impact Church Reynoldsburg

Did Jesus really do miracles, or was He just a really good illusionist? Jesus did a lot of miraculous things, but is there any evidence besides the Bible that backs this up? Were these astounding healings and walking on water real, or was it just a magic trick done by an illusionist? If Jesus really did miracles, does that give any credibility to Jesus' claims when He claimed to be the Son of God?

Jesus: I Loving and Compassionate Shepherd | Impact Church Reynoldsburg

😢🤷‍♂️🤷‍♀️ Have you had something bad happen that you felt was unfair? Have you wondered why God allows certain things to happen? Did those bad events cause you to doubt God's goodness? How would we know that we can in fact trust God's character? As we have been saying for the past few weeks, If you want to know what God is like, look at Jesus, and when we look at Jesus, we see someone who truly cares about people at a deep level. He had compassion for people who were suffering, and He did something about it. Watch this message as we look at how two sisters - Mary and Martha - suffer a devastating loss. But through this incident, we see the heart of Jesus.

Jesus The Kind of Shepherd You Want to Follow | Impact Church Reynoldsburg

🤝🏽‍👱‍♂️Jesus had a huge heart for people! One of the ways you see the heart of Jesus is through His leadership. When you look at Jesus' leadership, you see a Shepherd who takes good care of the people He leads. He actually cares about people and knows them by name. He keeps watch over His people and makes sure everyone is OK. 🧔🏾🐑The more you see Jesus' heart for people, the more you want to follow Him. If you don't already know Jesus, we think seeing this picture of Jesus as a Good Shepherd will make you want to follow Him more! If you do know Jesus, this lets you appreciate the type of person Jesus is - all over again.

Jesus Loved the Outcasts | Impact Church Reynoldsburg

Jesus: Defender Of The Weak | Impact Church Reynoldsburg

Get To Know and Love Jesus | Impact Church Reynoldsburg

🤟🏽🤔💓 Does God care about the outcasts of society? How do we find true satisfaction? Can people with a bad past have a second chance with God – no matter how many mistakes they have made? Does God offer the chance at salvation to all races and genders equally? Or does He show favoritism? Follow along as we read about an interaction that Jesus had with a woman, And that conversation is going to reveal 1) the heart of God and 2) what He is like. 

🧍✝️💖When someone stands up to a bully, do you respect that? What about when someone is willing to die to protect someone else? What if we told you that Jesus loves you and would die for you BEFORE you have even done anything for Him? We continue our series "Get to Know and Love Jesus". Pastor Jeremy leads the way in making the case that you will love Jesus because He consistently showed that He is a Defender and a Protector. We hope that through this Message, you will come to know and love Jesus as we have.

🤔❔✝️💖Have you ever wondered any of these questions about God? - Is there a God? If so, what is He like? - How do we know that God is real? - Is there a good reason to believe in God? - And what about Jesus? How does He fit into this discussion? Follow along as we start a New Series: Get to Know and Love Jesus. Here's what we believe: - There IS a God, and if you want to know what God is like -Look at Jesus. And when you look at Jesus, you are going to LOVE what you see! Whether you are not yet a believer and want to get to know Jesus, or you are a long-time believer and want to get to know Jesus on a deeper level, you are welcome at our church This Sunday!

Have you taken on the attitude that you don’t need anyone else in life? Or that you only need 1 other person – a spouse – to be happy?

American Idols Part 1 | Impact Church Reynoldsburg | non denominational church in Reynoldsburg

  • Let me ask you this morning: • When you fall on hard times financially, who or what do you depend on to get you through? • When it comes to wanting direction for the future, who or what do you turn to? Psychics? Eight balls? Fortune cookies? Horoscopes? • If someone was watching you from the outside, what would they say is the most important thing to you--the thing you live for? This is a really important topic: God wants us to put Him first, to live for Him, to make a difference in this world, to stay on God's path until we make it to heaven. The devil wants to distract us to focus on things other than God, to take us away from church and living for God, and to drag us down to hell with him.

Only Took One Generation to Fall away from God | Impact Church Reynoldsburg | Christian Church

Impact Church Reynoldsburg

  • The face of America has changed a lot in the past century. In 1940, teachers were asked to identify the top problems in public schools. They answered, “talking out of turn, chewing gum, making noise.” In 1990 when teachers were asked the same questions, their responses were, “drug and alcohol abuse, pregnancy, suicide, rape, robbery, and assault.” So, what has caused this? How did we get to where we are today? We can speculate many things,  but I would submit to you that everything we are seeing boils down to ONE MAIN FACTOR: there is no respect for God and His Word. So the questions for followers of Jesus are: • How do we keep from getting pulled away from God as our culture changes? • What are the factors that lead to Christians falling away from the faith? • Is there anything we can do as parents/guardians/grandparents to keep our kids on God’s path? What key actions could Christians do to keep themselves grounded in the faith? Watch this Video as Jeremy unpacks what has caused us to get to where we are, and how we can keep our loved ones on God's path.

And Everyone Did What Was Right in Their Own Eyes | Impact Church Reynoldsburg | non denominational

Should we be concerned when cultures change their definitions of right and wrong? What could be the possible consequences of changing the standards in our society? Watch as Jeremy connects the society during the book of Judges to the culture of today in America.

Disciples Make Themselves Available to Serve | Impact Church Reynoldsburg | nondenominational church

  • Imagine that you have learned from the Bible that God wants you to help others in need.

There was that time someone needed help on the side of road, but you were on your way to take your daughter to a soccer game. The church invited you to feed the homeless with them, but your family had already planned to go to the lake that weekend. Or consider this example. You have seen several opportunities to help people financially, but every time something comes up, you don't have any extra money to help. It's not that you don't want to help, but with the mortgage payment, the two car payments, the cable package, the family data plan for your family's 4 phones, the kids' sports and extracurricular activity expenses, you just don't seem to have any extra money to help when the opportunities come up.

In this message, Jeremy explains that if we are going to serve others as Jesus calls us to, we are going to have to learn how to create Margin in our lives - when it comes to our schedules and when it comes to our Money.Imagine that you have learned from the Bible that God wants you to help others in need.

🥰💒👨‍👩‍👧‍👦💞Unity -The Church is a Family | sermons online | Christian Church near me

How do you view the church? Do you see the church as a family or as a social club? Do you let consumer mentality influence how you think about the church? Is your thinking "the church exists to serve me" or do you think "how can I contribute my gifts and help others in the church?" How you view the church affects everything. Consumerism is the American way, but if we let consumerism affect our thinking about the church, we might think things like, "the church has to earn my business... they better have great music, great preaching, great programs, or I won't be a part of that church... and if they don't continue to give "great service," then I will pack up and go to another church down the street." Jesus prayed for unity - that we would be a tight-knit family. That we would think about how we can love one another and help our brothers and sisters in Christ. This message is crucial to understand if we're going to have unity. May we take this message into our hearts and let it bring us closer together as a church family.

❓🙏🏼🙏🏼❓Things You Didn't Know about Prayer | church near me - nondenominational - Impact Church

Have you ever wondered if you were praying the right way? Am I supposed to close my eyes? Am I supposed to be clasping my hands? What am I supposed to say? Am I supposed to address God as “Thou” and “Thee?” What if I told you that there are at least 4 different body positions to pray in according to the Bible? And that bowing your head and closing your eyes isn’t actually one of them? LOL This is not about a “right way to pray,” but simply to challenge you to consider other ways of praying. My hope today is to hopefully simplify prayer for you today if you have overcomplicated prayer. But I also hope everyone comes out of this teaching today with a higher reverence for God, and one of the ways we can honor God is through spending time with Him in prayer!
