Noah Herrin preaches through the Lord's Prayer (Matthew 6) as part of a verse-by-verse series on the Sermon on the Mount. He argues that prayer is not optional or mystical but a learnable habit and the primary means of connecting with God. Herrin emphasizes that Jesus reframes God as a loving Father who gives his children access to him, and that our prayers should be communal ('our' not 'my'), dependent (daily spiritual bread), and marked by forgiveness. He closes by reminding listeners that forgiveness toward others affects their relationship with the Father and that prayer should be a practiced discipline, not a last resort.
“For if you forgive other people when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you; but if you do not forgive others their sins your Father will not forgive your sins.” · Noah Herrin

Why'd You Build It Like That? - Noah Herrin
Noah Herrin finishes the series on the Sermon on the Mount by preaching from Matthew 7:21-27 about two builders - one who builds on rock (Jesus) and one who builds on sand. His main argument is that hearing Jesus' words is not enough; obedience and applying Scripture are what create a firm, storm‑proof foundation.
The Slippery Slope of Sin - Harrison Conley
Harrison Conley uses David’s fall (2 Samuel 11-12) to show how big moral failures usually grow out of small, unguarded compromises. He traces David’s descent as a sequence of small steps (stayed, saw, sent, slept, schemed, sorrowed), arguing that isolation, boredom, and unchecked thoughts open the door to sin.
