Thanksgiving Special - The Pilgrims’ Beliefs and
the Founding of America

PROGRAM FOR THANKSGIVING WEEKEND

CURRENT PROGRAM: November 29, 2025

GUEST: GRANT CASTLEBERRY, pastor, Capital Community Church (Raleigh, NC)

God created the universe and every living thing. There is no being greater than God and thus He is sovereign over all, which definitionally means “possessing supreme or ultimate power.”

We see God’s sovereignty, His rule, His control all throughout Scripture—from the parting of the Red Sea to prophecy-fulfilling events of Christ’s life, death, and resurrection to nations rising and falling.

We marvel and praise God for His sovereignty when He ordains events that save or bless. But we question God’s sovereignty when the storms and sin and chaos of life causes suffering and pain.

For example, how do we reconcile God’s sovereignty…

  • In devastating hurricanes like Helene and Milton?
  • When we learn a trusted preacher like Steven Lawson has not been above reproach?
  • When a godless civil leader may rise to power?

Grant Castleberry is the pastor of Capital Community Church in Raleigh, NC and the Bible teacher of Unashamed Truth. He joins us this weekend to explain God’s sovereignty in light of these challenging current events.

Grant will also tell us about a new Christmas resource that he and his wife designed to be used by families in the lead-up to Christmas titled Manger in Danger.

TOPIC: 5 Things to Maintain Stability and Peace in a Tumultuous 2019

Jan 05, 2019|

His master said to him, ‘Well done, good and faithful slave. You were faithful with a few things, I will put you in charge of many things; enter into the joy of your master.’  Matthew 25:23 At first glance, productivity can seem a subject more suited for business-people than for Christians.  But [...]

Work out your salvation with fear and trembling; for it is God who is at work in you, both to will and to work for His good pleasure.  Philippians 2:12-13 The top New Year’s resolution for 2017 is to “lose weight and eat healthier” followed by “self-improvement,” “better financial decisions,” “quit smoking,” [...]
