Memorial Day is the day we remember and honor our fallen soldiers—the men and women who gave their lives for our freedom. This is the story of a World War II soldier who never made it home.

This Monday is Memorial Day. A solemn day of remembrance for our fallen soldiers who gave their lives for our freedom. This freedom is often the subject of debate. Many believe that their sacrifice, along with the Founding Father’s desires, was to keep Church and State separate, but is that true? What freedom did they die for? And are those freedoms at stake today? Join Reverend Kenny Yates as he brings an eye-opening, somber message on the state of our world today in his Memorial Day Message, A Day of Remembrance.

The term Trinity is often used in the Christian community to describe God. Within the Trinity, you have the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Many people believe that this is a man-made belief as the term ‘Trinity’ is never used in the Bible. So, does that mean that there is no evidence for the Trinity in the Bible?

When we think about Pentecost, we think about Acts chapter two and Joel chapter two. These are the two main portions of scripture that we use to discuss Pentecost, but is there more? Are there more prophecies about Pentecost in the Bible? Join Reverend Kenny Yates as he opens our eyes to deeper things of Pentecost in his message, The Return of The Dove.

God created men and women equal but different. Our very chromosomes are different. This wasn’t so that there would be a clear ruler over the other but so that there would be balance. God endowed women with a maternal instinct. This instinct isn’t necessarily taught but something we are born with, and we develop and finetune over time. Join Reverend Kenny Yates as he opens our eyes to the attack on this God-given trait in his Mother’s Day message, A Mother’s Instincts.

The Church today struggles to see its prayers answered. We struggle to see God move in our lives and in our churches. Why is that? Has God changed, or are we missing something important in our prayer lives? Join Reverend Kenny Yates as he opens our eyes to the importance of desperate prayers in his message, Desperate For Jesus. Verses Used: Psalms 122:6-7 Matthew 24:15-16 Matthew 24:32-34 Deuteronomy 30:3 Isaiah 43:6 Ezekiel 36:24 Matthew 14:13-14 Matthew 13:57 Matthew 14:13 Mark 6:32-34 Matthew 14:14 Hebrews 11:6 Isaiah 53:5 (KJV) Matthew 11:12 John 10:27 Matthew 14:16 1 Samuel 15:22b (NIV) Lamentations 2:18-19 Acts 12:1-5 Matthew 20:32-34 Our Website: https://www.holdtohope.org/weekly-messages/desperate-for-jesus/ Our Telegram Channel: https://t.me/holdtohope Our Rumble: https://rumble.com/c/HoldToHope Music By: https://www.hooksounds.com

The disciples asked Jesus to teach them how to pray, but today, we define prayer as simply talking to God. Many of us talk to God, but it often feels and seems as though God doesn’t hear us. So, could it be that there is more to prayer than just talking to God? Join Reverend Kenny Yates as he opens our eyes to some reasons that our prayers may not have been answered in his message, The Importance of Prayers.

The Feast of Passover is the precursor or forerunner of Easter. It was the very first instituted by God while His people were still in slavery in the land of Egypt. Though we’ve all heard about it, this specific feast is often very foreign to the Church. We don’t fully understand what Passover is, why it took place, or what each instruction of the Passover meant. Join Reverend Kenny Yates as he explains the first feast in his video, What Is The Passover?

The Lamb is mentioned a few times in the book of Revelation. The first time The Lamb is mentioned is when John, the apostle, sees the scroll with seven seals.

This upcoming week is the Passover and the Feast of Unleavened Bread. These two feasts have been combined into one feast that symbolizes and foreshadows the then-coming salvation offered to us through the sacrifice of our LORD and Savior, Jesus Christ. When we think about the Passover, we usually focus on the sacrificial lamb, but rarely do we focus on the unleavened bread, its meaning and symbolism. Join Reverend Kenny Yates as he opens our eyes to another connection between Jesus, The Passover, and the Exodus of the Israelites in his message, Jesus, Our Unleavened Bread.

Lucifer is often referred to as the Morning Star, but Jesus refers to Himself as the Bright Morning Star. Does this mean that they are both morning stars or that Jesus is claiming to be Lucifer?

With each generation, church attendance, bible reading, following Christ, and believing in Jesus and God decreases. Many believe that these are steps forward in progress away from the patriarchal oppression brought on by colonizers. Is that what Christianity is? Is it oppressive and has no place in our society today? Are we progressing as we separate Church and State by removing Church from every aspect of our lives? Join Reverend Kenny Yates as he opens our eyes to what is truly at stake in his message, Kiss The Son.

God has given a seed to each and every one of us. In fact, each and every one of us is a seed that the enemy is attempting to steal, kill, and destroy.

The crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus are two of the most revered days in history. Jesus was crucified alongside two thieves. Because it was the Day of Preparation, they didn’t want the men on the cross on the Sabbath; they asked Pilate to have their legs broken. When they got to Jesus, He was already dead, so His legs weren’t broken. This fulfilled many prophecies about Christ, but what was the significance? Why was it important that Jesus’ legs weren’t broken? Join Reverend Kenny Yates as he opens our eyes to the mystery behind this prophecy fulfilled in his Resurrection Sunday message, No Broken Bones. Verses Used: Exodus 12:43-49 John 3:16 1 Peter 3:18 Numbers 9:5 Numbers 14:1-4 Psalms 103:10 2 Peter 3:9 1 Corinthians 10:14-22 Exodus 12:46-47 Romans 8:15-17 John 19:31-37 John 14:30 Psalms 51:7-9 Psalms 34:20 Psalms 51:10-14 Our Website: https://www.holdtohope.org/special-occasion-messages/no-broken-bones/ Our Telegram Channel: https://t.me/holdtohope Our Rumble: https://rumble.com/c/HoldToHope Music By: https://www.hooksounds.com

Every year, we celebrate Jesus’ Triumphal (Triumphant) Entry into Jerusalem. This celebratory entrance into Jerusalem started the last week of Jesus’ earthly ministry because before the week ended, He would be betrayed, condemned, crucified, and buried.

Azazel has become a heavily debated and talked-about topic within the Church and the world. However, Azazel is mentioned in the Bible only four times, all during the instructions of one of the holiest of feasts, The Day of Atonement.

A woman’s place in the Church is a wildly debated topic in both the Church and the world. There are those who staunchly stand firm on the belief that women have absolutely no place in the Church, while others believe that a woman can hold any office in the Church that she can fulfill the duties and requirements of. These are two vastly different stances on one subject, but who’s right? Does the Bible give us a clear answer on where women belong in the Church?

The Lake of Fire is only mentioned by name four times in Scripture; each time, it’s in the book of Revelation.

Jesus taught His disciples that wherever two or three are gathered in His name, He was there with them.

In ancient Israel, there would be watchmen on the wall. The watchmen failed in their job and brought destruction upon the entire kingdom of Israel.
