Please take a few seconds to bring my granddaughter Kirsten Reeves to Jesus in prayer. She was admitted today into the hospital for pneumonia. She is finally resting. David-Courtney Reeves are with her.

[Pastor Reeves @PastoReeves]

It was a pleasent time preaching and teaching @HylesAnderson today. Wonderful singing and an infectious spirit. I was extra blessed to have my kids here, @HSRee084 , @WillTReeves, @PeterIWard, @NPCA_Excellence, @DavidPaulReeves as well as my friend @EricMichigan.

STATEMENT ON ISRAEL, CRITICISM, AND OUR REAL MISSION

I’ve noticed a growing number of men who seem to make it their social media ministry to pick apart Israel, to point out every failure and sin of that nation. I understand that Israel, like any people, is not above Scripture or beyond correction. But what troubles me is that while we are so quick to expose Israel’s faults we are slow to expose our own.

There’s a balance I try to keep when it comes to public ministry and social media. I believe in addressing sin when it needs to be addressed. But I also refuse to make fault-finding my calling. It’s clear that some live to destroy any admiration or affection others may feel for Israel. They spend so much time tearing down that they’ve lost sight of what truly builds up.

The same Bible that calls Israel “the apple of His eye” (Zechariah 2:8) also commands every believer to “consider thyself, lest thou also be tempted” (Galatians 6:1). Both Jew and Gentile stand in equal need of salvation, “for we have before proved both Jews and Gentiles, that they are all under sin” (Romans 3:9).

I fear too many are majoring on Israel's wrong when we should be doing more to win souls & teach the whole counsel of God (Acts 20:27). Our mission is not to prove who’s worse; it’s to point people to the One who can make them right.

I want my life and ministry to be known for proclaiming Christ. We can speak truth without losing grace, and we can correct error without cultivating hate. The world doesn’t need more critics, it needs more witnesses.

[Pastor Reeves @PastoReeves]

There is a false idea being spread today that says, “You can be whatever you want to be.” The truth is, you can do whatever you want to do, but when you demand that I acknowledge a man as a woman, or a woman as a man, you have crossed the threshold of reality. God’s Word has already spoken, and the Bible says they are not what they claim.

We usually recognize this only in the male-and-female issue, but the same principle applies elsewhere. If you do not meet the Bible’s clear criteria for an office, you cannot call yourself what you are not. Just because you want the title does not mean God gave you the position.

And let me give a clear warning: those who try to take a Bible position without meeting Bible standards are guilty before God. But so are those who accept them in that position, and even worse are those who pressure others to go along with it. To recognize what God has not ordained is to participate in deception. You cannot prop up a lie and stay clean.

[Hope Reeves @HSRee084]

If you assume someone dislikes you and take it personally, check your own heart. Often it’s our own negative thoughts about others that make us suspect the same of them. #HeartCheck

I was able to meet little Kirsten Paige yesterday! 💕She is tiny but mighty strong. Auntie Hope loves you, Teeny Baby! So proud of my baby Brother @DavidPaulReeves and Sister-in-law, Courtney! You are fantastic parents. ❤️❤️

[David Reeves @DavidPaulReeves]

I think Kirsten wants to ride the church bus tomorrow. We might have to wait a few more weeks though. 😊🚌

Thank you for praying for her. Each day she gets a little stronger.

“Elisha was not found in his study but in the field, not with a book in his hand, but at the plow.” - Arthur Pink

Arthur Pink became a staunch Calvinist, eventually turning into a hermit who almost “never left his study.” He requested that no one visit him and rather than attend church on Sunday, he spent the time writing.

It’s tragic that Pink became the embodiment of the very thing he cautioned others against. We can study the plow endlessly, but our true worth is only found in working the field.

“But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.” James 1:22

[David Reeves @DavidPaulReeves]

I want to thank everyone for their prayers for Kirsten. God has been answering! All the doctors & nurses have expressed how much she is exceeding expectations for being born at only 28 weeks. Her breathing & feeding have improved each day. Please continue to pray!! 🙏🏼

[Pastor Reeves @PastoReeves]

We had a wonderful service today! It was a blessing to see Brother Ryan officially join our church with his family. His wife and children were saved and baptized here, while he was saved and baptized as a young man. Now, they are all united with us @BaptistNorth! Praise God for His goodness!

[David Reeves @DavidPaulReeves]

Thank you all for praying. God gave us our little treasure earlier then we expected but both mom and baby our healthy. A bit of a long journey ahead but we couldn’t be more thankful.

💕Kirsten Paige Reeves.

[Pastor Reeves @PastoReeves]

Well, the bus has found its new home! Praise the Lord for His mercies as I drove it here. Ran awesome and turned heads all the way! Thank you @BusThemIn and @BaptistNorth for making this possible. I know @DavidBallert was stoked to get it!

[Jill @JillJReeves]

We don’t throw away things that we value!

[Hope Reeves @HSRee084]

@tlewis569 @PastoReeves Thank you

[Pastor Reeves @PastoReeves]

Recently, I made it clear in a sermon—especially for the sake of new converts—that not everyone who calls themselves a spiritual leader is truly of God. Some are nothing more than deceivers, and I did not hesitate to mark them as untrustworthy when it comes to spiritual guidance. Unlike many of my so-called peers, I believe this kind of warning is absolutely necessary when a Diotrephes rises up among the body. This is how I will always operate. You can either get right or move on—I’m open to either.

Romans 16:17-18 Now I beseech you, brethren, mark them which cause divisions and offences contrary to the doctrine which ye have learned; and avoid them. [18] For they that are such serve not our Lord Jesus Christ, but their own belly; and by good words and fair speeches deceive the hearts of the simple.

[Pastor Reeves @PastoReeves]

Great night in church @BaptistNorth! Souls saved, 4 following the Lord in Believers Baptism and a powerful message of warning by @DavidPaulReeves to church members harboring bitterness! #MadeAliveIn2025

[Pastor Reeves @PastoReeves]

Gramps is doing great! Should be headed home in a couple of hours! @JillJReeves

[Pastor Reeves @PastoReeves]

Asking all my friends on X to pray for my father in law Pastor Tom Brennan as he has a heart valve replacement today at age 84. Dad’s procedure is scheduled for later this evening around 5pm. Sherry, Cathy and Jill will be spending the next couple of days caring for their Dad.

[Pastor Reeves @PastoReeves]

I fear that our churches have become more concerned with avoiding offense than with personally engaging people about their salvation. In our effort to create a comfortable church environment, we may be allowing many souls to slip into eternity without Christ.

If someone comes to church, it is not unreasonable to gently and kindly approach them during the invitation, offering them the opportunity to be saved. Yet, we often act as if God is only moving when they take the first step and ask, What must I do to be saved? But sometimes, they need to be led!
