#ComeFollowMe
“``The enemy is going to try to say, no, you can't. You remember all the times you did this, this, and this, and this? You'll fail. You always fail. God doesn't bring up the failures the enemy does. God just says, child, walk with me. Walk with me. See where I take you. See where I lead you. Trust me. Do you remember what Jesus said to the disciples when he called them out? What did he tell them? You remember? Was the was the did he give them like a a 15 page list of this is what you're to do if you're going to be a disciple? Come and follow me. That's all he said.”

#FollowTheArk
“Okay. I wanna take just a couple minutes to reflect on the priests and what they're experiencing here, and then what the people are experiencing with the priests bearing the ark of the covenant. So the first thing is that God said that the people needed to wait behind the ark, wait behind the Lord because they haven't been that way before. The ark of the presence of the Lord went first. The Lord provided the same sign again to show his might and faithfulness. This was a new generation that needed to encounter his presence. The priests were called to take a step of faith into the water and to stand firm as part of the sign in the midst of the people. Stones were taken from where they stood, and stones were placed where they stood, the priest, as a part of that sign so that they could remember. The priest stood firmly until God said to move while bearing the ark. And when God commanded the priests to come up, they obeyed and passed before the people.”

#ImagineJesusEverywhere
“See, that's the real test. Because some things seem good in the moment, but they're not good, you know, a little bit later, kinda like Cheryl Crow's song, you know, that if it makes you happy, then why you end up so sad, you know. There there's there's some kind of a conflict there. are his will and his ways best for everyone, everywhere, all the time? I ask you a silly question. If tomorrow, everyone, everywhere woke up and they were exactly like Jesus, minus his miracle working power, but personality wise, morally wise, conduct wise, everyone, everywhere in the whole world were exactly like Jesus tomorrow. Would the world be better or worse? It's a no brainer. Right? Have you ever thought of the implications? What let let me get you thinking just a bit. Would we need, burglar alarms? What would we need? I'm not trying to put anybody out of jobs. Would we need police? Would we need soldiers? I I mean, we could just keep on going down the list. The world would instantly be dramatically, significantly better.”

“학생 여러분의 진짜 성공은 남들보다 좋은 대학, 돈 많이 버는 직업을 갖는 것이 전부가 아닙니다. 그것은 과정일 뿐입니다. 여러분의 인생의 목표는 하나님께서 마음껏 가져다 쓰실 수 있는 경건한 사람이 되는 것입니다. 집에서 부모님의 신앙지도를 잔소리로 여기지 마시고 순종함으로 영적인 실력을 먼저 키우십시오. 그래서 다른 친구들이 다 치링해서 좋은 성적을 받는다 하더라도 심지어 교회 다닌다고 하는 친구들마저도 다 학교에서 치링한다 하더라도 끝까지 정직할 수 있는 그런 영적인 실력을 키우십시오.”
33s
“So I found a what's called a commentary on the book of Ephesians by Warren Wiersby, and I read it. What I did, I took everything. I wrote everything he had his commentary onto a piece of paper like it was mine, and I taught his book. That's how I taught the bible study because I knew nothing. I did not know how to teach, but I survived it. Now I can do my own bible studies forty five years later, but not that first time. Got out of seminary, 28 years old 28 years old, 1990, my first funeral. There's always a first for everything, first funeral.”
48s
“Remember, pride doesn't usually announce itself. It shows up in small decisions. And over time, those small decisions can lower the lid on our lives. They limit our relationships. They limit our growth. And they limit what God wants to do in us. But humility does the opposite. It raises the lid. It opens the door to wisdom. It opens the door to healing, and it opens the door to God's work in our lives. And and so the question isn't whether pride is present. The question is where is it in control? Because God meets us in our humility. Not the person who has it all together, but the person who's willing to come low.”
49s
#GraceNotPerfection
“But it's a lot like that. This this idea that that Paul is trying to get across here, this this own struggle, his own self examination reminds us that we all are flawed. We all need a savior. There is only hope in Christ and Christ alone. Right? It's it's all about what Jesus does, and that's okay. That's the way it's gotta be. No matter how much we think we have it all together, we don't. But that doesn't mean that God can't use us. That doesn't mean that if we trust him, God can't take even our issues and our struggles and do something with us that we never dreamed possible. Because our God is good, and our God is all powerful.”
43s
#PowerInWeakness
“And I think the apostle Paul, what I what I got a lot out of this is I was thinking is as God used the apostle, God can use you, and yes, there are failures or struggles, and yes, the enemy will come against you, and he will seek to say, well, you're not worthy, you're not able. Yeah. Tell me something I don't know. But God is able. God's power is greater than your weakness. Your inability to do whatever God has asked you to do may be exactly correct and true. But God's power and work through you is far beyond what you can imagine.”
39s
#PurposeOverFailure
“The enemy tells us and gets us to look at ourselves, reminds us of our failures, reminds us of who we were and what we've not done and how we have screwed up so many times, it's impossible for us to remember. And Jesus just says, follow me. See the difference? Paul saw that difference. And when he struggled, he knew his purpose because he knew his master. He knew the one he loved and the one he trusted, the one he'd given his life to. And he stayed the course even when it was hard.”
68s
#StandFirmInFaith
“We need to follow the Lord because we have not been this way before. We need to believe that God will show signs of his might and faithfulness in each generation. believe like the priests, we are called to step out in faith and to bear the weight of his calling on our lives personally and corporately, and to stand firm as an act of obedience to sign and as a sign to those around us that we believe that God will move. We are to wait on the Lord standing firm until he moves. And I also believe that we are called to remember. The Lord had a person from each tribe take a stone from the place where the priests stood and form a memorial.”

Why Frederick churches are unique

Frederick’s historic downtown—famed for its “clustered spires” skyline—gives many congregations a heritage-rich setting. Churches in Frederick often worship in preserved brick sanctuaries while blending tradition and innovation, offering historic sanctuaries with clustered spires, traditional liturgy and choral music, and modern worship with contemporary band. This mix reflects the city’s careful preservation ethos alongside its creative arts scene.
Frederick churches serve a diverse population of commuting professionals, military and biomedical staff from Fort Detrick, college students, and multigenerational families. That diversity shows up in ministries like strong kids programs for young families, weekday commuter-friendly service times, and bilingual Spanish-English services that mirror the city’s growing Hispanic community. Many congregations also emphasize practical care and hospitality for newcomers who are putting down roots.
Set between the Catoctin Mountains and rolling farmland, Frederick churches lean into place-based discipleship—hosting trail hikes, creek cleanups, and farm partnerships that foster creation care and outdoor fellowship. A strong volunteer spirit fuels neighborhood service, food security work, and support groups, often expressed through small group culture and recovery and counseling ministries. This civic-minded rhythm resonates with the city’s walkable neighborhoods and tight-knit downtown community.
