Being Calm in Christ
Today we’re discussing what living an appropriate Christian life looks like and how we can be calmly happy in Christ without worry. There is an appropriate way to live as God’s children. When we are not calm in our hearts, we are tempted to live according to what we think is right or what feels...

Comparing
SPOTIFY DESCRIPTION Comparison is not just a bad habit. It is a confidence problem. In Philippians 3:4-7, Paul lists seven things that made him look impressive and then moves every one of them into the loss column. We talk about why we compare, what it costs us, and the only comparison that gives...

How to Not Fall Into Temptation
Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego got thrown into a furnace heated seven times hotter than normal, and someone showed up in there with them. Your idols will not do that. When the heat gets turned up in your life, look around for the thing you have been trusting. If you can’t find it, you just found...
-
GODFIDENCE
Alex separated his AC joint racing the guys after church, and suddenly everything he took for granted with two working arms was gone. That’s the whole point of Philippians 3:1-3. Paul is writing to a church being pressured by Judaizers, people telling Gentile believers they had to become Jewish...
-
How To Be Disciplined
Most churches teach that good Christians get extra crowns in heaven and lazy Christians barely make it in. That’s not in the Bible. And that teaching is quietly wrecking your walk with God. In this sermon from our Maturity series, Alex breaks down 1 Corinthians 9:24-27 and shows why the race Paul...
-
De-influenced
Most of our stress comes from people online telling us what to be, what to wear, what to buy, and where to go. Jesus frees us from all of that. In this episode of the Stress Less series through Philippians, Alex and Lokelani look at Epaphroditus, a man named after a pagan god who became one of...

Winning Others to Christ
Why do so many of our conversations about Jesus go nowhere? In 1 Corinthians 9:19-23, Paul says he became all things to all people so that by all means he might save some. But Paul was not a chameleon and he was not a compromiser. He followed the example of Christ, who confronted without…

Timothy
In Philippians 2:19-24, Paul couldn’t find anyone like Timothy to send to the Philippians. Why? Because Timothy stopped seeking his own interests and started seeking Christ’s kingdom instead. In this message, we break down what made Timothy different and how you can become the kind of person God...

UNSURPRISED

The Authority of Christ
We spent years in Matthew. And it ends here — not with a theology lecture, but with eleven doubting disciples on a mountain, a risen Jesus who doesn’t rebuke them, and a commission that changed the world. STUDY GUIDE:...
-
IMMOVABLE
The religious leaders just heard the news — Jesus is risen. So they bribe the guards, spread a lie, and use every political connection they have to bury it. None of it works. In this episode we’re in Matthew 28:11–15 looking at three ways people try to move God — bribery, dishonesty, and policy —...

What the empty tomb means 2000 years later
The tomb is empty. That changes everything. On the first Easter morning, two women showed up looking for a funeral — and got invited to a party. In this message from Matthew 28:1-10, we unpack three things the empty tomb means for your life today: you’re invited (not out of obligation, but love),...

#217 FINISHED
Jesus didn’t just die — He was forsaken. For 3 hours, darkness covered the land, and the Son of God cried out “My God, My God, why have you forsaken me?” — and the Father didn’t answer. In this episode, Alex walks through Matthew 27:46-50 and uncovers what actually happened in those 3 hours on…

Narrow Road

Which Jesus Are You Following?

SILENCE AND SOVEREINGTY
Why did Jesus stay completely silent when falsely accused? And what does that mean for you when people come after you? In Matthew 27:12-14, Jesus stands before Pilate while the religious leaders hurl accusations at Him—and He doesn’t say a single word. Pilate is shocked. But Jesus’s silence…

Your Life Is Either a LIE or the TRUTH About Jesus

DENYING
Here’s a simple podcast description: Why We Deny Jesus (And How to Stop) | Matthew 26:69-75 Peter denied Jesus three times in one night. A teenager cursed Jesus for $1,000. And if we’re honest, we deny Him too—for a smile, for acceptance, for FOMO, or just to fit in. In this episode, we break…

BE STILL
In this message, we explore one of the most powerful moments in Scripture: Jesus standing before His accusers in complete silence. While false witnesses lied about Him, while they spit on Him and beat Him, Jesus said nothing. His silence wasn’t weakness—it was strength, trust, and love. We live…
