    The New Heaven and New Earth, Pt. 1

    Have you ever imagined Heaven and felt... disappointed? Not because you don’t believe in it, but because the picture in your mind seems kind of bland? If so, you’re not alone. Pastor Nick Gatzke is exploring the biblical reality of eternity and clearing up common misconceptions about Heaven. 

  2. 588

    Judgment Day, Pt. 2

    Will Christians face the final judgment? If you’re not sure, get ready to discover what the Bible says about the Great White Throne of Judgment. Pastor Nick Gatzke gives an inside look at the final courtroom scene in the book of Revelation where God’s perfect justice is on full display. 

  3. 587

    Judgment Day, Pt. 1

    Imagine a courtroom unlike any other, where every person who has ever lived will stand before the One who misses nothing, forgets nothing, and judges with perfect accuracy. That scene should stop us cold. Pastor Nick Gatzke teaches from Revelation 20, where we’ll discover what happens at the Great White Throne of Judgment. 

  4. 586

    The Vineyard, The Kingdom and The Triumphal Entry of Jesus

    When you ask kids today what they want to be when they grow up, they often express a desire to be rich, famous, or powerful! Being humble doesn’t typically make the list! But Pastor Nick Gatzke explores the humble way Jesus came to earth––the first time––and contrasts that with how He will return. 

  5. 585

    The Millennium, Pt. 2

    Every generation has people who were willing to pay the ultimate price for what they believe. Pastor Nick Gatzke opens Revelation 20 to reveal why their sacrifice was not in vain. He’s sharing the Apostle John’s vision of cosmic justice and explaining why history finally makes sense. 

  6. 584

    The Millennium, Pt. 1

    When it comes to the final showdown between good and evil, some people imagine it as a close call—an epic battle where the outcome hangs in the balance. But the Bible tells a very different story. Pastor Nick Gatzke reveals the ultimate futility of fighting against God. 

  7. 583

    The Majestic King Returns, Pt. 2

    It’s comforting to think about Jesus as a gentle shepherd, a healer, and a friend of sinners. But what happens when the full picture of Christ comes into view? Pastor Nick Gatzke explores the shocking, and perhaps startling, image of Jesus presented in Revelation 19. 

  8. 582

    The Majestic King Returns, Pt. 1

    Most people have a mental picture of Jesus––perhaps it’s an image of Jesus healing the sick, feeding thousands, or suffering on the cross. But Pastor Nick Gatzke explains why these pictures are incomplete. He’s presenting a side of Jesus that will stop you in your tracks! 

  9. 581

    The Harlot, The King, and the Bride, Pt. 2

    Have you ever been invited to two events on the same day and had to choose which one to attend? Pastor Nick Gatzke invites us to witness two very different gatherings at the end of the world: a funeral and a wedding. Everyone gets an invitation to one of them. 

  10. 580

    The Harlot, The King, and the Bride, Pt. 1

    For centuries, historians and Bible scholars have puzzled over Babylon. In the book of Revelation, John resurrects this name long after the empire had crumbled to dust. Pastor Nick Gatzke unravels the mystery of Babylon the Great and what this ancient empire reveals about the seductive power of wealth, pleasure, and human pride in every age. 

  11. 579

    The Seduction of the World, Pt. 2

    Beneath the surface of ever-changing headlines and global tensions a much bigger story is unfolding — one with a guaranteed ending. Pastor Nick Gatzke explores the end times and pulls back the curtain on world politics to give us a sweeping, cosmic view of history. Discover who will ultimately control the world.

  12. 578

    The Seduction of the World, Pt. 1

    Most of us don’t wake up one morning and decide to walk away from God. It’s more subtle than that. A little compromise here. A little distraction there. Pastor Nick Gatzke shares a powerful warning about, The Seduction of the World. Find out how you can keep from drifting away! 

  13. 577

    The Revealed Righteousness and Just Judgments of God, Pt. 2

    Nick Gatzke walks us through one of the most sobering passages in all of Scripture.  In Revelation, as the bowls of God’s wrath are poured out on a rebellious world, we witness something that defies all logic: people who see the undeniable power of God and still deny Him. 

  14. 576

    The Revealed Righteousness and Just Judgments of God, Pt. 1

    Some people refuse to admit they’re wrong even when all the evidence points to their guilt! We’ve all seen the person who doubles down when confronted, who digs in deeper rather than simply saying, “You’re right. I blew it.” Pastor Nick Gatzke challenges anyone who’s holding out, to repent before it’s too late!
