Elliott Nesch (N/A – N/A) is an American preacher, author, and filmmaker known for his bold open-air evangelism and critiques of modern church movements. Born in the United States, specific details about his early life, including his parents and upbringing, are not widely documented, though his ministry reflects a deep commitment to evangelical faith shaped by personal conviction. His education appears informal, centered on self-directed biblical study rather than formal theological training, as evidenced by his extensive writings and sermons. Nesch’s preaching career focuses on street evangelism and prison ministry, delivering uncompromising sermons that call for repentance and adherence to New Testament Christianity, often recorded and shared online. He gained recognition through his documentary Church of Tares (2012), which critiques the seeker-sensitive and emergent church movements, and The Real Roots of the Emergent Church, blending preaching with apologetics. Author of books like Hath God Said?: Emergent Church Theology and Early Christian Commentary of the Sermon on the Mount, he emphasizes returning to early church practices over modern pragmatism. Married with children—mentioned in accounts of his ministry outings, though names are private—he continues to minister, leaving a legacy as a voice challenging contemporary Christianity with scriptural fidelity.

In this sermon, the preacher emphasizes that we don't have to save the world because God has it under control. He encourages believers to be faithful in the little things that God has entrusted to them, such as loving their spouse and guiding their children. The preacher highlights the importance of being in close communion with God, only speaking and doing what the Father desires. He also reminds the audience that without Jesus, they can do nothing, and that their actions should be motivated by glorifying Jesus and God the Father. The sermon concludes with a reminder that Jesus allowed his life to be interrupted to serve others, but it is important to find a balance and not overdo it at the expense of one's family.
