Psalm 118, The Day the Lord has Made
Psalm 118, The Day the Lord has Made
Have you ever wondered how differently you would face your day if you truly believed—deep down—that God is for you? In The Day the Lord Has Made, Pastor David Menard walks us through Psalm 118, revealing not just a familiar phrase but a profound prophecy pointing to Jesus and the cross. This psalm celebrates God’s unchanging mercy, His steadfast love, and His relentless faithfulness—from Israel’s deliverance at Passover to our redemption in Christ. Pastor David beautifully traces how this ancient song, sung for generations, ultimately finds its fulfillment in Jesus, the rejected cornerstone who became our salvation. With rich insights into God’s goodness and a clear call to gratitude and trust, he shows how this passage invites us to see God’s heart toward us—merciful, patient, powerful, and deeply personal.
This is a message you’ll want to listen to with an open Bible and an open heart. As Pastor David unpacks Psalm 118, you’ll be invited to step into its promises for your own life—to trade fear for boldness, entitlement for gratitude, and self-reliance for trust in the God who fights for you, leads you, and never gives up on you. Let the truth of this psalm challenge and encourage you. Rediscover the day God made—the day of Jesus’ sacrifice—and let its reality shape how you walk through every day that follows. Don’t miss the opportunity to hear this powerful teaching that will deepen your confidence in God and stir a fresh sense of awe for His mercy that truly endures forever.

Psalm 51, God Restores the Broken Pt. 2Psalm 51, God Restores the Broken Pt. 2Have you ever reached a point where your own choices left you feeling empty, exposed, and desperately in need of restoration? In God Restores the Broken, Pastor David Menard unpacks Psalm 51 through the raw, honest story behind it—David’s catastrophic fall in 2 Samuel 11–12. With gripping clarity, he walks through David’s temptation, the ignored warning signs, the downward spiral of sin, and the crushing inner collapse that followed. But the heart of the message shines through David’s confession in Psalm 51: a man utterly broken, falling on the mercy, lovingkindness, and tender compassion of God—who stands ready not only to forgive but to restore.This message invites you not merely to listen, but to enter the story—to see your own need for grace and the God who runs toward the repentant. Pastor David shows how Psalm 51 confronts us, comforts us, and leads us back to joy: exposing our sin, calling us into truth, and reminding us that God alone can wash, renew, and recreate what we cannot fix. If you’ve been carrying guilt, pretending everything is fine, or longing to regain the closeness with God you once knew, this message will stir your heart. Don’t wait—let the urgency and beauty of David’s prayer draw you into the same restoration God still offers today.

Psalm 50, True Faith vs. Worthless FaithPsalm 50, True Faith vs. Worthless FaithWhat if God called you into His courtroom today and examined the true condition of your faith—would it stand or collapse under the weight of His righteous judgment? In True Faith vs. Worthless Faith: When Worship Meets Judgment, Pastor David Menard walks us through the sobering and stunning message of Psalm 50. This psalm opens with God Himself arriving in blazing glory, summoning His people to account. Though Israel continued their religious rituals, their hearts had drifted into empty formalism and powerless faith. Pastor David unpacks the four movements of the psalm: God revealing Himself as Judge, confronting hollow worship, exposing the impotence of pseudo-faith, and graciously calling His people back to a genuine, transforming trust in Him.This message invites you to slow down, listen deeply, and allow the Holy Spirit to evaluate the faith you claim. Psalm 50 challenges us to return to the kind of life-giving faith God desires—one marked by gratitude, obedience, dependence, and transformation. As Pastor David shows, God is not interested in religious performance but in hearts that truly know and love Him. If you’ve ever wondered whether your faith is real, growing, and aligned with God’s heart, this teaching will both convict and encourage you. Listen in and discover why true faith is urgent, powerful, and gloriously worth pursuing.

Psalm 73, Why do the Wicked Prosper?Psalm 73, Why do the Wicked Prosper?Have you ever looked around and wondered why people who reject God seem to have it all—while those who love Him often struggle? In “Why Do the Wicked Prosper?” Pastor David Menard takes us through Psalm 73, where Asaph, a worship leader and prophet of Israel, wrestles with this same question. Caught between faith and frustration, Asaph envies the wealthy and questions God’s justice—until he enters God’s sanctuary and sees the truth. Through vivid storytelling and deep biblical insight, Pastor David reveals how Asaph’s journey from envy to intimacy, from confusion to clarity, transforms his entire perspective on life, wealth, and what it truly means to be blessed.Listen in and let this message draw you closer to the heart of God. Pastor David invites us to face our own struggles with envy and self-pity and to discover how worship replaces comparison with contentment. You’ll be challenged to see your trials as part of God’s refining work and encouraged to trust His eternal purpose even when life feels unfair. In the end, Psalm 73 reminds us that when God Himself becomes our treasure, envy dies—and worship begins.

Psalm 22, The Fifth Gospel Part 2Psalm 22, The Fifth GospelWhat do you do when God seems silent—when you cry out, but heaven does not answer? In The Fifth Gospel by Pastor David Menard, the mystery of suffering and divine silence is laid bare through Psalm 22, a passage written a thousand years before the cross yet describing Jesus’ crucifixion in astonishing detail. This psalm—called “the fifth gospel” by the early church—reveals the agony and triumph of Christ not through an observer’s eyes, but through His own. Pastor David invites listeners into the very heart of the Messiah, unveiling how prophecy, written long before crucifixion even existed, proves the truth of Scripture and the depth of God’s love.This message is more than a study of ancient prophecy—it is a revelation meant to awaken faith. As Pastor David unfolds the vivid imagery of Psalm 22, you will see that Jesus was forsaken so that you would never be. You will be challenged to trust God when you cannot see Him, to live by faith rather than sight, and to rest in the assurance that His plan of salvation has always been perfect and on time. Listen to The Fifth Gospel today and discover how the cross, foretold a millennium before it occurred, still speaks with power to your life right now.

Psalm 103, The Joy of a Grateful HeartPsalm 103, The Joy of a Grateful HeartWhat if the real key to joy is not found in getting more, but in remembering what you already have? In his message, The Joy of a Grateful Heart, Pastor David Menard takes us into Psalm 103, where King David does not ask God for anything but instead commands his own soul to bless the Lord. With passion and clarity, Pastor David shows how gratitude flows from recognizing God’s attributes—His forgiveness, healing, redemption, mercy, and provision. Unlike entitlement, which leaves us empty and bitter, gratitude changes the very lens through which we see life, filling us with worship and joy.This is a message you will want to hear. Pastor David not only teaches the truth of Scripture but presses it into daily life, reminding us that gratitude transforms marriages, heals relationships, and frees us from the weight of sin and self. Psalm 103 calls us to lift our eyes from what we lack to all that God has already given—and the difference is life-changing. Listen in and let the Word stir your heart to move from complaint to praise, from entitlement to thanksgiving. The joy of a grateful heart is available now—why would you wait to taste it?

Psalm 83 & 82 Healing a Divided NationHealing a Divided NationWhat will it take to heal a nation so deeply divided? In his message Healing a Divided Nation, Pastor David Menard opens Psalm 83 & 82 to show that the solution does not begin with politics, protests, or social media. It begins with God. Pastor David teaches that the enemy’s plan has always been to remove God and godly influence from society, undermining truth, morality, and the family. With clarity and urgency, he warns against the cultural lies of subjective truth and calls the church to return to God’s Word, to recognize the pasture of His blessings, and to stand boldly for objective truth rooted in Scripture.This message invites you to hear how God’s Word diagnoses our present turmoil and offers the only true remedy. Pastor David calls believers to action—bringing the nation’s sin before God, holding pastors accountable to teach truth without compromise, and exalting Jesus Christ as Lord over all.

What if, even when everything around you seemed uncertain, you could stand unshaken? In his message “Courageous Strength in the Face of Fear” from Psalm 27, Pastor David Menard unpacks how David, a young man hunted by Saul and overwhelmed with enemies, could still declare, “The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear?” With vivid storytelling and careful teaching, Pastor David draws us into the psalm’s powerful truths: God Himself is our light that guides, our salvation that restores, and our strength that secures. Fear may press in, but when our foundation is in the Lord, it loses its power.This is not just David’s story—it is ours. Pastor David invites you to listen and discover how these timeless truths confront the fears we all face—fear of failure, loss, rejection, the unknown, even death itself. Psalm 27 shows us that God is not only able to rescue, but He is actively shaping us into people of courage and substance through trials. This message will challenge you to examine where you need His light, salvation, and strength right now. Do not settle for being paralyzed by fear; step into the confidence David knew, and let God’s truth anchor you today.

Have you ever ignored a warning until it was too late? Imagine a night of feasting and revelry in the Babylonian kingdom, where King Belshazzar, in his arrogance, defies the God of Israel by using sacred vessels from the temple for his own indulgence.

This dramatic moment in Daniel chapter 5 serves as a powerful reminder of the consequences of ignoring God’s warnings.

Introduction to the Book of Daniel:
This introduction explores the astonishing prophecies God gave to Daniel about future world events. The book of Daniel reveals God's desire for a deep, personal connection with us, His people.

Secondly, God has given us prophecy to provide proof that His Word (the Bible) is indeed of divine origin and therefore a trustworthy foundation on which to build our lives. Daniel's unwavering commitment to living for God, despite worldly temptations, exemplifies the rich rewards of maintaining our spiritual identity in God.

Jude 1:20-21 – Perseverance of the Saints
Jude 1:20-21, Perseverance of the Saints.
Jude teaches us that our eternal security in Jesus, and our human responsibility to live by faith, are working together, hand-in-hand; to the glory of God. Therefore, Jude instructs us to "build up our lives on our most holy faith." Many wrongly believe this means we are to "have more faith" or to "believe more," as the false teachers often instruct. Pastor David teaches us the proper way to "build up our lives on our most holy faith" and he gives us four practical steps to live a life that embraces this Divine calling.
Jude also tells us to: "keep ourselves in the love of God." This doesn't mean trying to earn God's favor, which we already have in Christ. We'll learn that "Keeping ourselves in the love of God" is living with a daily awareness of God's love, grace, and mercy which are new for us every morning as we abide in Jesus Christ. Therefore, even when we stumble or fall our salvation is secure because Jesus is the Lord of our life. Enjoy this teaching on Jude 1:20-25, Perseverance of the Saints.825 Carlsbad Village Drive Carlsbad, CA 92008

Jude 1:12-19 – The Epitome of Apostasy
In Jude 1:12-19, The Epitome of Apostasy, the dangers of apostasy are vividly portrayed, emphasizing the necessity of earnestly contending for Biblical Christianity against deceptive counterfeit teachings. Jude uses metaphorical language to illustrate how apostate doctrines promise much but provide no lasting value, contrasting this with the transformative relationship with Jesus Christ that truly changes lives and nourishes the soul.
Pastor David highlights the difference between genuine faith and superficial modern pursuits such as social justice without spiritual foundation, or environmentalism devoid of God, and dietary trends that become almost religious in their fervor. These efforts may satisfy temporarily but they neglect deeper spiritual needs. Jude emphasized how true Christianity, unlike the empty promises of apostate teachings, offers real sustenance through a relationship with Jesus Christ that transforms our life, renews our mind, and fills our heart, enabling us to live lives of genuine abundance and purpose.
Drawing from the vivid imagery in Jude, Pastor David described apostate teachers as "clouds without water" and "fruitless trees," metaphors that powerfully depict the barrenness of teachings that deviate from the Gospel. These false teachings, while often appealing and emotionally charged, ultimately lead to spiritual dryness and disconnection from the true source of life - Jesus Christ.
In conclusion, Pastor David urged the congregation to remain vigilant and discerning, to immerse themselves in the Scriptures, and to uphold the Biblical truths of the Gospel. This is crucial in a world where deceptive teachings are rampant and can easily lead even the faithful astray if they are not grounded in the truth of God's Word

From the creation of man, God has taught His people to humble themselves in prayer and to take their frustrations to God. Toxic Faith - Three Antidotes to Poisonous Religion (Part 2) reveals the right way to handle conflict as you earnestly contend for the Faith.

Easter Series: Matthew 27 – The Greatest Miracle, Easter Sunday
The Greatest Miracle - Matthew 27, Luke 15 (Title Slide)
"He was cut off from the land of the living. For the transgressions of My people He was
stricken. And they made His grave with the wicked, but with the rich at His death."
THE CRUCIFIXION of JESUS is the GREATEST MIRACLE in the UNIVERSE Because Jesus is the One, True, Living God who created the universe.
"All of us, like sheep, have strayed away (from God). We have left God’s paths to follow our own. Yet the LORD has laid on Him (Jesus) the sins of us all."
"And the LORD passed before him (Moses) and proclaimed, “The LORD, the LORD God, merciful and gracious, longsuffering, and abounding in goodness and truth, keeping mercy for thousands, forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin, but by no means clearing the guilty.”
Jesus was not a victim on the cross. He was a Savior on the cross.
The Bible plainly says JESUS IS GOD (and it says it repeatedly)
"He (Jesus) is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. For by Him all things were created that are in heaven and that are on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or principalities or powers. All things were created through Him and for Him. And He is before all things, and in Him all things consist."
"All things were made through Him (Jesus), and without Him nothing was made that was made. In Him was life, and the life was the light of men. And the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it."
'“I and My Father are one.” Then the Jews took up stones again to stone Him. Jesus answered them, “Many good works I have shown you from My Father. For which of those works do you stone Me?” The Jews answered Him, saying, “For a good work we do not stone You, but for blasphemy, because You, being a Man, make Yourself God.”'
We should not think it strange that God would come to us to save us
One look at the world and IT SHOULD BE OBVIOUS WE CANNOT SAVE OURSELVES
We need God.
• We need divine forgiveness.
• We need divine healing.
• We need divine guidance.
• Jesus came to give us all these things
the parable of the PRODIGAL SON - Luke 15
Jesus taught this parable because HE WANTS SINNERS TO COME HOME TO HIM
THE GREATEST MIRACLE IN THE UNIVERSE IS THAT JESUS PAID IT ALL TO SAVE YOU

Easter Series: It is Finished: Luke 22 – Good Friday
It is Finished: Luke 22 - Good Friday. Why do we call the Friday Jesus was nailed to the cross "good?" It's difficult to fathom the thirty-six hour period Jesus went through, but Luke 22-23 provides incredible detail of His road to the cross. Beatings, illegal trials, scourging and cruel mocking all marked the night and early morning of Jesus' final day. Worst of all was that Jesus who knew no sin bore the sins of many and exchanged His life for the worst of sinners by enduring God's wrath against sin. Don't miss a powerful message from Pastor David Menard leading us to understand why Good Friday is more than just the day Jesus died on the cross!
"Then Pilate entered the Praetorium again, called Jesus, and said to Him, “Are You the King of the Jews?” Jesus answered him, “Are you speaking for yourself about this, or did others tell you this concerning Me?” Pilate answered, “Am I a Jew? Your own nation and the chief priests have delivered You to me. What have You done?” Jesus answered, “My kingdom is not of this world. If My kingdom were of this world, My servants would fight, so that I should not be delivered to the Jews; but now My kingdom is not from here.” Pilate therefore said to Him, “Are You a king then?” Jesus answered, “You say rightly that I am a king. For this cause I was born, and for this cause I have come into the world, that I should bear witness to the truth. Everyone who is of the truth hears My voice.” Pilate said to Him, “What is truth?” And when he had said this, he went out again to the Jews, and said to them, “I find no fault in Him at all.”
John 18:33–38 NKJV https://www.blueletterbible.org/nkjv/jhn/18/33-38/s_1015033
When we fail to STAND FOR TRUTH WE DENY JESUS
JESUS IS SILENT if we come to Him with wrong motives
But He is full of grace to an honest heart
THREE HOURS OF DARKNESS upon the face of the earth
THE DIVINE EXECUTIONER UNLEASHED HIS WRATH NOT UPON SINNERS BUT UPON THE SIN BEARER
"For He made Him (Jesus) who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him."
2 Corinthians 5:21 NKJV https://www.blueletterbible.org/nkjv/2co/5/21/s_1083021
"In this is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins."
