We exist to love all people to Christ and equip them on their journey with God and one another. We believe Jesus Christ is the hope of the world and the church is His plan for sharing that hope with the world. Every week, from the First Baptist Owasso, we explore the Word of God to strengthen our faith, draw near to Him, and deepen our love for one another.

episode 8: Confidence
Chad Balthrop • Isaiah 37:5-7
This world is full of trouble. Family is complicated. The nation’s misguided. Even in success, anxiety is high. When people stand against you, and everything’s uncertain. Where is the hope? These must have been the thoughts of Hezekiah, King of Judah. By the Assyrian army’s brutal hands, Hezekiah witnessed the destruction of Israel. Judah would soon be next. Sennacherib, the Assyrian King, defied God and threatened conquest.
An overwhelming army. Insurmountable odds. The last tribe of Israel. Where does a king turn? Hezekiah remembers. He walks in the way of his forefather, David.
Some trust in horses. Some in chariots. But we will trust in the name of the Lord our God.
