The Inconsistency of Partiality | Pastor Christian Constante

Welcome to the Harvest Bible Chapel podcast. We're in the series True Religion from the Book of James.
This weekend, Pastor Christian Constante continues our series True Religion: The Book of James with a message titled “The Inconsistency of Partiality” from James 2:1–13.
Faith in Jesus leaves no room for favoritism. James challenges us to examine how we view and treat others—reminding us that showing partiality contradicts the very heart of the gospel. True faith looks beyond appearance, status, or influence and honors people the way God does.
As you watch and listen, ask the Lord to align your heart with His kingdom priorities. May we be a people who extend mercy, reflect His character, and live as those judged by the law of liberty…where mercy triumphs over judgment.

The Final Word | Pastor Jeff Bucknam

Today, we’re wrapping up our four-year journey through the book of Acts with the final message in our series, We Are All Witnesses. Over the past fifty-plus sermons, we’ve seen the risen Jesus build His church through ordinary men and women empowered by the Holy Spirit.
This weekend, Pastor Jeff Bucknam closes the series with a sermon from Acts 28 entitled, The Final Word. In this chapter, we see three themes come into focus: the mighty God who delivers, the transforming faith that sustains, and the unchained Gospel that advances to the ends of the earth.
Though Paul ends the story in chains, the Word of God is not bound. That’s the lasting message of Acts—the Gospel of Jesus Christ cannot be stopped.
So let’s lean in together as Pastor Jeff leads us through Acts 28, reminding us that God still keeps His promises, still changes lives, and still carries His Gospel forward—without hindrance.
