Authentic Church with Pastor Bobby Chandler

When God asks a question, it’s never because He needs an answer—it’s because we do.In this message, we look at the powerful moments in Scripture when God asks questions that reveal the true condition of the human heart. From Solomon’s defining encounter with God to the first questions asked in the Garden of Eden, we discover that God’s questions are invitations—into surrender, repentance, wisdom, and intimacy.This sermon challenges us to examine:What we truly desire when God says, “Ask, and I will give.” How small compromises slowly drift our hearts away from GodWhy obedience creates clarity—and convenience creates distanceThe difference between worldly intelligence and godly wisdomHow surrender positions us to actually hear God’s voiceIf you’ve been asking God for relief, direction, or clarity, this message will help you shift your prayers toward wisdom—and align your heart with what God treasures most.

A new year doesn’t automatically mean a new heart.In this message, we confront the subtle, often unnoticed compromises that slowly drift us away from God. Drawing from the life of King Solomon, we see how wisdom alone isn’t enough when obedience is partial and the heart becomes divided.Small compromises don’t feel dangerous at first—but what you tolerate today can dominate you tomorrow.This sermon will challenge you to:Stop confusing good intentions with obedienceRecognize the danger of divided devotionTear down the “high places” God never approvedChoose surrender over convenienceGod isn’t asking for part of your heart—He’s asking for the throne.

When life feels overwhelming, God invites us to trust Him with what we cannot control.In this powerful Christmas message, “Let God Handle It,” we’re reminded that God often works in ways we don’t expect—quietly, humbly, and ahead of every battle we face. From a manger in Bethlehem to the unseen spiritual battles behind the Christmas story, Scripture shows us that God is never late, never nervous, and never caught off guard.If you’re carrying worry, pressure, or uncertainty, this message will encourage you to release control, trust God’s plan, and find peace in knowing He is already at work.Join us Sunday's 8:15 | 10:00 | 11:45 Authentic Church 2416 N Center St Hickory, NC 28601 (Beside Planet Fitness) GIVING To support this ministry and help us continue to reach people all around the world click here: https://authenticchurch.com/give GET CONNECTED Ready to check out Authentic Church in person?

The Christmas story is more than a peaceful nativity scene—it was the result of a spiritual war.In The Unseen Battle, we explore Scripture from Genesis to Revelation to uncover the war in heaven that took place before Jesus was born. This message reveals the mission behind the manger, the enemy’s deception, and how Christ’s victory still gives us authority today.The silent night was fought for—and Heaven won.Join us Sunday's 8:15 | 10:00 | 11:45 Authentic Church 2416 N Center St Hickory, NC 28601 (Beside Planet Fitness) GIVING To support this ministry and help us continue to reach people all around the world click here: https://authenticchurch.com/give GET CONNECTED Ready to check out Authentic Church in person?

What if your faith was never meant to end with you? In this message, “Faith That Outlives You,” Pastor Bobby reveals how the spirit of fear works to intimidate believers—and how God has already given us power, love, and a sound mind to overcome it.Through the stories of David and Nehemiah, we learn why real faith doesn’t just build for today… it builds for generations. The enemy isn’t only attacking your present—he’s after your legacy. But when you rise and build what God has called you to, nothing in hell can stop it.If this message impacts you, share it with someone who needs encouragement.👇 Comment below and let us know where you're watching from!Join us Sunday's 8:15 | 10:00 | 11:45 Authentic Church 2416 N Center St Hickory, NC 28601 (Beside Planet Fitness) GIVING To support this ministry and help us continue to reach people all around the world click here: https://authenticchurch.com/give GET CONNECTED Ready to check out Authentic Church in person?
