Spiritual warfare isn’t weird — it’s real, it’s daily, and it’s often invisible. In this message from 2 Corinthians 10:3–5, Pastor Jon Groves exposes how the enemy attacks through disproportionate reactions, confusion, division, temptation after victory, and cultural lies—and shows how believers can fight with the right weapons.Paul says, “the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh but have divine power to destroy strongholds.” That means you can’t defeat spiritual attacks with carnal weapons like gossip, overworking, scrolling, medicating, or anger. You defeat them with prayer, Scripture, obedience, the name of Jesus, faith, and persistence.In this sermon you’ll learn:How to recognize when you’re under spiritual attackWhy people are not your enemy (Ephesians 6)What a stronghold actually is (a lie-fortified way of thinking)Why division in marriage/church is spiritual, not just relationalWhy the enemy attacks right after spiritual victories (Elijah)How to take every thought captive and make it obey ChristWhy you must stop assisting what you’re trying to resistKey Scriptures:2 Corinthians 10:3–5, Ephesians 6:10–12, 1 Peter 5:8, James 4:7, Matthew 4, Job 42 (prayer breakthrough), Romans 8:37Big Idea: You don’t fight for victory — you fight from victory, because Jesus already won.Chapters / Timestamps00:00 – Spiritual warfare is real (not just a Halloween thing)01:16 – Culture is normalizing darkness and the demonic02:12 – 2 Corinthians 10:3–5 – our weapons are divine03:59 – If you don’t know the real war, you’ll fight the wrong enemy05:36 – “If you can touch it, it’s not your real enemy” (Eph. 6)07:55 – Signs you’re under spiritual attack09:50 – When you medicate a spiritual problem with a physical solution12:06 – Division in marriage/church = spiritual warfare13:24 – Temptation right after spiritual victory (Elijah)15:46 – When lies start sounding like truth16:55 – Strongholds = lies fortified over time18:52 – Our weapons: Word, prayer, Jesus’ name, faith, obedience24:49 – You can’t rebuke what you still entertain28:02 – Take every thought captive (win the battle in the mind first)30:08 – Stand and don’t quit (Ephesians 6)31:10 – “The gates of hell will not prevail” = the church goes on offense32:40 – Churchill illustration: don’t surrender34:12 – Call to trade carnal weapons for divine ones

You Have a Heavenly Father Who Sees You — Come Home Tonight — In this message, Pastor Jon Groves preaches from the Sermon on the Mount and the parable of the prodigal son (Luke 15) to show that God is not a bigger version of your earthly father — He is a faithful Father who sees you, stays with you, and welcomes you home. If you’re tired of performing, hiding, or running, this sermon is for you.
Second Mile Christianity, Obedience Over Strategy, Make Jesus Visible — In this message, Pastor Jon Groves unpacks why the second mile (Matthew 5:41) isn’t about our stage or credit.

🛑 “The first mile is required. The second mile reveals your heart.”In this powerful message at @pineywoodscamp4496 Week 3, Pastor @jon_groves unpacks Matthew 5:41 to challenge students to live beyond obligation. In the Kingdom of God, obedience doesn’t stop when you’ve done “enough”—it presses further, not for applause, but for impact.
📖 Matthew 5:41 (KJV)“And whosoever shall compel thee to go a mile, go with him twain.”Jesus isn’t just calling us to endure… He’s calling us to exceed. When we go the extra mile, it’s not about proving our worth—it’s about displaying His.
