I always thought this was one of the more important messages I preached. I found this digital converter yesterday so I took this tape transferred it to the flash drive then connected that to my phone to edit and share today. It was originally preached the night of my son's first birthday celebration at church 28 years ago. What do you think?

Dennis Eversen, titled "Lord if it is you bid me to come!", provides a deep look into what he calls "classical Christianity."

Originally recorded in Oden, Missouri, in October 1997, the message was recently recovered from a VHS tape and shared by AMG Broadcasting (Acts Media Group).

The message is structured into two primary sections that challenge modern religious norms:

• The Offensive Gospel: Eversen argues that the true Gospel naturally offends the world and sin. He warns against "modern Christianity" which he claims tries to broaden the "narrow road" to avoid controversy.

• A "Very Life" Relationship: Drawing from Colossians, he emphasizes that Christ should not just be a guest in a believer's life but their "very life".

• Victory Now: He encourages believers to seek victory over sin and depression in the present, rather than waiting for the afterlife.

• The Threefold Anointing: He describes the call for every believer to function as:

  • Prophet: Speaking God's words.

  • Priest: Interceding for others.

  • King: Ruling over personal sin and leading through service.

• Holy Spirit Empowerment: He points to the baptism of the Holy Spirit as essential for being a witness in the "last days".

• Shining in Darkness: Eversen concludes with a call to be "set on fire" for God to counter the spiritual darkness of the current age.

Dennis Eversen A Central Bible College Student Preaching His Second Sermon Ever The Meaning Of Life.

In this video, Dennis Eversen, a student at Central Bible College, delivers his second sermon ever, titled "The Meaning of Life." He explores this profound question through the lens of 2 Corinthians 5:17-21, asserting that the true meaning of life is reconciliation with God.Key Points of the Sermon:What is Reconciliation? Eversen defines it as being brought back into a right relationship with God, illustrating this with a story of a divided family during the Civil War seeking to reunite.God's Work, Not Ours: He emphasizes that reconciliation is a work of God through Jesus Christ, not something achieved by human works, religion, or sacrifices.The Debt Paid: Using a banking metaphor, he explains that while our "soul's account" is bankrupt due to sin, God does not "impute" or charge our trespasses to us, but instead credits us with righteousness through Christ's sacrifice.The Price of Love: He describes the magnitude of God’s love in sacrificing His own Son for a world that was still in sin, comparing it to a father giving up a son to save a person who had wronged his family.Ambassadors for Christ: Eversen challenges believers to live as "ambassadors of light" in a "foreign land" of sin, sharing the message of reconciliation with a lost and dying world.New Creation Now: He argues that the "new creation" mentioned in 2 Corinthians 5:17 starts here on Earth, and that a relationship with God should be fresh and active now, not just something anticipated after death.Reflection:Eversen concludes by asking his audience if they are satisfied with their current level of closeness to God and urging them to actively participate in the ministry of reconciliation.The video was published by AMG Broadcasting (Acts Media Group) on January 22, 2026.
