Transcribe →I Peter 3:7- Treasuring the Weaker Vessel
2w agoTap to summarizehttps://www.maynardvillefellowship.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/Cooke-05-10-2026.mp3 In 1 Peter 3:7, the apostle Peter gives husbands one of the clearest and most searching commands in all of Scripture: know your wife, honor her, be tender with her, remember whose she is, and keep covenant with her so that your prayers may not be hindered. A wife is a fellow heir of the grace of life, a daughter of the King, and a precious vessel entrusted to her husband’s care. Her femininity is not a defect to tolerate, but a glory to honor. Her vulnerability is not an excuse for contempt, but a summons to Christlike strength. Peter does not call husbands to sentimental softness or domineering harshness. He calls them to the pattern of Christ, the Bridegroom who knows, honors, protects, and gives Himself for His bride. A man may confess biblical headship with his lips, but if he is harsh, selfish, dismissive, or covenantally absent in his home, he contradicts with his life what he professes in doctrine. Listen as Pastor Matt calls husbands to repent where they have damaged what God entrusted to them, and to recover the glory of strong, tender, Christ-shaped leadership in the home.
Transcribe →Survey of Numbers
2w agoTap to summarizehttps://www.maynardvillefellowship.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/Carr-Survey-Numbers-5-6-26.mp3 Many people overlook the beauty and hidden value of the book of Numbers. Listen as Pastor Carr shows how God formed his holy army, replaced it, and was still true to his promise.
Transcribe →Matthew 23:34-36 When God Gives the Rope- Patience That Ripens Judgment
3w agoTap to summarizehttps://www.maynardvillefellowship.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/Cooke-5-3-26-1.mp3 We tend to think of patience & grace as basically synonyms. But biblically speaking, that is not always the case. Sometimes God delays judgment in order to display mercy. But sometimes He delays judgment in order to expose rebellion, harden the self-righteous in their chosen path, and vindicate the justice of His wrath. In Matthew 23:34–36, Jesus announces that He will send prophets, wise men, & scribes to that generation—not because they will receive them, but because they will reject them. Their treatment of Christ’s messengers will prove that they are true sons of those who murdered the prophets. From Abel to Zechariah, the blood of the righteous has cried out. And Jesus declares that all of it will come upon that generation. This is a sermon about covenantal bloodguilt, delayed judgment, AD 70, the end of old covenant Israel, and the terrifying reality that God’s patience is not always mercy. Sometimes God gives men enough rope with which to hang themselves.
Transcribe →Acts 3:11-16 A Sermon About A Sermon Repeating A Sermon
4w agoTap to summarizehttps://www.maynardvillefellowship.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/Carr-4-26-26.mp3 Patterns matter. They inform what an author is doing and saying in a book. Pastor Carr shows how Luke shows a pattern in Peter’s preaching and what that means for the book of Acts and how it can help us better understand the text.
Transcribe →Acts 3:1-10 Visible Condemnation
Apr 1900:50:50Tap to summarizehttps://www.maynardvillefellowship.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/Carr-4-19-26.mp3 In this passage Peter and John are confronted with a beggar on the outside of covenantal life. Pastor Carr shows the significance of this man’s healing and why he is a picture of the nation of Israel at the border of God’s blessing but excluded because of uncleanness.
Transcribe →Acts 2:43-47 Recovering a Covenant Lens
Apr 1200:53:26Tap to summarizehttps://www.maynardvillefellowship.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/Carr-Acts-4-12-26.mp3 It can be difficult for baptists to think in terms of covenant. In this sermon Pastor Carr shows how Luke necessitates that we think in terms of covenant realities even when we are tempted to get swept up in descriptive narrative.
Transcribe →Acts 2:42 Devotion to the Pillars of Covenant Life
Apr 5Tap to summarizehttps://www.maynardvillefellowship.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/Carr-4-5-26.mp3 What happens when Christ redeems a people and brings them into covenant with each other? In this passage we see the four pillars of covenant life that shaped the early church and continues to shape the covenant people of God today.
Transcribe →Romans 12:17-21 No Retaliation: Overcoming Evil With Good – A Counterintuitive Offensive Strategy (Part 2 of 2)
Mar 2900:58:45Tap to summarizehttps://www.maynardvillefellowship.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Romans-12_17-21-A-Counter-Intuitive-Offensive-Strategy-Part-2-1.mp3 When evil is done to you, one question matters: will evil only wound you, or will it recruit you? Why would we imitate the evil done to us and thereby multiply it? Romans 12:17–21 forbids revenge, forbids fleshly retaliation, and commands believers to answer evil with good. Listen as Pastor Matt explain how striking back is not victory, but surrender, and how that overcoming evil comes through righteousness, mercy, and trust in the justice of God.
Transcribe →Survey of Leviticus

He gives special attention to the offerings and sacrifices and how they point to Christ.
