The crowds whisper, the leaders plot, and confusion spreads through Jerusalem — yet Jesus stands firm. In John 7:25–36, He reveals His true origin and His unstoppable mission. Human unbelief, political pressure, and public contempt rise against Him, but none of them can hinder the One sent by the Father. Join us today as we continue in our sermon series, "That You May Know." Main Point: Because Jesus was sent by God, nothing can stop Him from fulfilling His mission. In this message, we’ll see: Unbelief cannot derail God’s plan Political power cannot overcome Christ’s authority Contempt cannot diminish His purpose If you’ve ever wondered whether anything can truly stand in the way of God’s work, this passage gives a resounding answer. 📖 Scripture: John 7:25-36(ESV)

This Sunday Pastor Tony is back and returning to his sermon series "That You May Know" In John 7, everyone has an opinion about Jesus — some admire Him, some question Him, some oppose Him. But all of them are looking in the wrong places for the Messiah. Jesus stands in the middle of their confusion and reveals Himself as God’s true provision. Main Point: Because Jesus is God’s true provision for His people, we must receive Him as God has revealed Him. We’ll explore how: The Celebrity Messiah blinds us to the suffering Savior The Measurable Messiah keeps us from trusting God’s revelation The Traditional Messiah prevents us from embracing Jesus’ transforming work If you’ve ever wrestled with your expectations of God, this message will help you see Jesus clearly. 📖 Scripture: John 7:1-24 (ESV)

In 1 Samuel 21, David faces fear, uncertainty, and danger — and his choices reveal how easily any of us can lose our footing. Today our guest preacher Rev. Brian Wood invites us to see ourselves in David’s story and discover the hope God offers when fear clouds our judgment. Main Idea: Whenever fear rises, the faithful response is to return to the Lord and rely entirely on Him. Today’s Focus: Remember the Lord (vv. 1–9) — God provides bread, strength, and direction when we seek Him. Rejoice in the Lord (vv. 10–15) — Even in danger, God gives joy that steadies our hearts. Let this message encourage you to turn your fear into faith, your worry into worship, and your uncertainty into trust. 📖 Scripture: 1 Samuel 21 (ESV)

The early church faced threats, intimidation, and real danger—yet they refused to be silent. Why? Because God Himself was fueling their courage. In Acts 5:12–42, the apostles step forward with confidence not rooted in personality, but in God’s power. Today’s Rev. Charles McKnight unpacks four anchors for courageous gospel witness: God saves — Their story begins with rescue. God is present — They were never alone in the mission. God gives the message — The gospel is God’s authoritative word. God gives joy — Even persecution becomes a platform for rejoicing. This sermon invites you to step into the same courage God has always given His people. 📖 Scripture: Acts 5:12-42 (ESV)

Moses stood on the hill with his hands raised—but he didn’t stand alone. Aaron and Hur held him up when he grew weary, and God brought victory to His people. Exodus 17:8–16 shows us a picture of what faithfulness looks like when life gets hard and community steps in. Today’s sermon, Juan Rodriguez the RUF Campus Minister at UNC-Charlotte teaches us and invites us to: -See the Gift of Faithfulness even when the battle is fierce. -Face the Hardness of Faithfulness with honesty and hope. -Celebrate the Victory of Faithfulness that God promises to those who endure. If you’ve ever felt tired in your walk with Jesus, this message is for you. Lift your hands. Lift your heart. Victory is coming. 📖 Scripture: Exodus 17:8-16 (ESV)

Today’s message, The Good Room, takes us into Colossians 1:9–14 where we discover what life looks like when God brings us into His Kingdom. Our guest preacher, Corron Boston from West Charlotte Church at Freedom, unpacks three essentials of Kingdom living: bearing fruit, being strengthened, and giving thanks. If you’re longing for a deeper walk with Jesus—one marked by growth, endurance, and gratitude—this sermon will encourage and equip you. Step into the Good Room and walk worthy of Him! Scripture: Colossians 1:9-14 (ESV)

Many disciples turned away when Jesus’ words challenged their expectations. But Peter responded with a confession that still captures the heart of true faith: “You have the words of eternal life.” In To Whom Shall We Go, we explore what it means to keep believing when the road gets steep—because Jesus alone gives life in its fullest measure. This message will walk through how: Jesus confronts our assumptions and reshapes our understanding of who He is Jesus confronts our self‑sufficiency and calls us to trust Him completely Jesus confronts our desire for comfort and invites us into deeper discipleship Whether you’re joining live or watching later, we pray this message strengthens your faith and anchors your hope in Christ alone. Scripture: John 6:41-51, 66-69(ESV)

Life can feel stormy, empty, or uncertain — but Jesus meets us right where we are. In this week’s message, The Fullness of Life, we look at how Jesus reveals Himself as the One who gives life that truly satisfies. Main Point: Because Jesus alone gives the fullness of life, we must believe in Him for that life. In this message, we’ll see how: Jesus meets us in life’s storms Jesus meets us in life’s hunger Jesus meets us in our search for lasting life If you’re longing for peace, purpose, or renewal, this message points you to the One who provides it. 📖 Scripture: John 6:16-29 (ESV)

Jesus feeding the five thousand wasn’t just a miracle — it was a sign pointing to who He truly is. In this message, The Greater Moses, we explore how Jesus fulfills what Moses could only foreshadow and why we can trust Him to meet our deepest needs. Main Point: Because Jesus is the greater Moses promised by God, we must trust Him to satisfy our deepest needs. We’ll see that: Don’t limit Jesus by your circumstances — He already knows what He intends to do Don’t redefine Jesus by your expectations — He is more than a provider of bread Whether you’re joining live or watching later, we pray this message strengthens your trust in the One who is greater than Moses and sufficient for every need. 📖 Scripture: John 6:1-15 (ESV)

Today we are back in our sermon series on the book of John, "That You May Know." When God takes the stand, there is no higher authority. In John 5:30–47, Jesus reveals that the Father Himself has testified about Him—through miracles, through Scripture, and through His divine mission. Because God has borne faithful witness to Jesus, we look to Christ as our unshakable hope for eternal life. This message challenges us to examine what shapes our vision of Jesus: • Are we chasing human glory, or seeking God’s? • Are we letting God’s love transform us, or resisting His voice? • Are we trusting God’s testimony, or rejecting the truth He has spoken? Come ready to be confronted, comforted, and called deeper into the life Jesus offers. Scripture: John 5:30-47 (ESV)

Today is Youth Sunday and we are excited for this time of family worship! They are leading us but also reminding us they too are part of the body of Christ, and we must continue to shape and pour into their lives. We are breaking from our sermon series in the book of John and exploring the book of 2 Chronicles. Josiah’s story shows us what happens when God’s people rediscover His Word and respond with obedience. Main Theme: God renews His people and reforms the world under His reign, calling us to shape every part of life by His Word. Scripture: 2 Chronicles 34:1-7

Today we are back in our sermon series on the book of John, "That You May Know." Jesus pulls back the curtain on the mystery of His relationship with the Father. He shows us that His works, His authority, and His power to give life are not independent acts but the very works of God on display. Main Point: Because God manifests His works through the Son, we must honor Jesus through faith. In this message, we’ll consider how: Jesus shares perfect unity with the Father Jesus alone gives resurrection life Jesus will judge all with divine authority If you long to see God clearly, look to the Son. His works reveal the Father’s heart. 📖 Scripture: John 5:19-29 (ESV)

Today Elder Dave Grigg is bringing us our message! In Romans 12:9–21, Paul calls us into a love that is sincere, sacrificial, and deeply connected to the lives of others. Today’s message—Rejoice With, Weep With—invites us to slow down long enough to truly see one another and love one another well. We’ll explore the challenge of saying “I see you, I love you,” the internal obstacles that whisper “What about me?”, and how comparison and lack of empathy can quietly harden our hearts. But the good news is this: in Christ, you are seen and you are loved—and that truth frees you to enter both the joys and sorrows of others with compassion. This is the kind of love that transforms a community from the inside out. 📖 Scripture: Romans 12:9-21 (ESV)

This week we continue in our sermon series, "That You May Know." Today in John 5, Jesus steps into the brokenness of a man who has waited thirty‑eight years for healing. At the Pool of Bethesda—literally the House of Mercy—Jesus reveals that true mercy isn’t found in superstition, striving, or ceremony. It’s found in Him. This message invites us to see how Jesus brings rest to those who are exhausted, overlooked, and spiritually stuck. Main Point: Jesus offers weary sinners the gracious rest they cannot find anywhere else. We’ll explore how: -Jesus meets us where our strength ends and His mercy begins. -No ritual can do what the living Christ freely gives. -Jesus stands above every system, rule, and power that tries to limit His work. If you feel spiritually tired, stuck in patterns you can’t break, or weighed down by expectations you can’t meet, this passage shows that Jesus doesn’t wait for you to get it together. He comes to you with grace that restores, heals, and frees. 📖 Scripture: John 5:1–18 (NIV)

This week we continue through the Gospel of John and explore what it means to trust Jesus when the evidence isn’t visible yet. In our passage, Jesus meets a desperate father whose need pushes him toward a deeper kind of faith—one that believes before seeing. This week’s message invites us to consider how Jesus leads us from shallow belief to a settled trust in Him as Lord. Main Point: Because Jesus is the object of true faith, our faith must grow beyond sight to a settled trust in Him—trusting not only His works, but His character. We’ll explore how: True faith isn’t dependent on signs True faith responds with obedient trust True faith draws others into confidence in Christ Whether you’re joining live or watching later, we’re glad you’re here. Come ready to grow in a faith that sees Jesus clearly—even when circumstances don’t. Scripture: John 4:43-54 (ESV)

Well last Sunday we lost power but we are praying and believing that will not be the case this week! Join us this Sunday as we continue our journey through the Gospel of John. In Hungry for the Wrong Things, we look at Jesus’ conversation with His disciples and the Samaritan villagers to discover what truly satisfies the human soul. Main Point: Because true satisfaction is found in Jesus, our souls are nourished as we join Him in God’s mission of gathering a harvest from every people and place. We’ll see how: Jesus satisfies us by fully knowing us Jesus nourishes us as we join His reconciling work Jesus deepens our joy as we come to know Him personally If you’re longing for purpose, hope, or renewal, this message is for you. Scripture: John 4:27-42 (ESV)

Today we received a powerful word from our guest preacher, Rev. Brian Wood. We dived into the familiar yet ever-relevant story of David and Goliath in 1 Samuel 17. In a world filled with loud opposition and defiant enemies, this sermon reminds us where true victory is found—not in our strength, but in the name of the Lord. Sermon Breakdown: Our enemy is defiant (vs. 1–11) — The challenge before us is real, loud, and intimidating. Our King is reliant (vs. 12–40) — God works through those who trust Him fully, not those who rely on themselves. Our victory is not silent (vs. 41–58) — When God delivers, His glory is made known for all to see. Be encouraged to stand firm in faith, trust in God’s power, and boldly proclaim His name in every victory and every battle. Scripture: 1 Samuel 17 (ESV)

Because Jesus got up, everything about us will be raised up. His resurrection isn’t just a moment in history—it’s the foundation of our hope, our future, and our new life today. 🙌 This Easter message will remind us: • A hope that death can't touch – Our future is secure because Christ lives. • A King that death can't hold – Jesus reigns victorious over the grave. • A life that death can't stop – Resurrection power is at work in us now. No matter where you’ve been or what you’re facing, the empty tomb declares that death does not have the final word—Jesus does. Scripture: 1 Corinthians 15:12–34 (ESV)

If you missed our Good Friday service-whew what a time! Here's the homily that Corron Boston, Pastoral Assistant with West Charlotte Church at Freedom delivered. We pray it blesses you and reminds that He too knows your pain! Scripture: Hebrews 2:14-18

It's Youth Sunday! Today listen in as Elder David Zimmerman teaches about the Passover to our Spring 2026 Communicants class. Listen as he shares how: The Lamb and the Bread Define us The Lamb and the Bread Fuel us The Lamb and the Bread Unite us The Lamb and the Bread Divides us The Lamb and the Bread Invite us Scripture: Exodus 12:1-27

We continue in our sermon series "That You May Know" on the book of John. Join us for our livestream sermon as we dive into John 3:22–36 (ESV) and explore what it truly means to place our faith in Jesus. In this powerful passage, we are reminded that faith in Jesus recognizes and rejoices in His supremacy over all—and gladly yields to Him. Just as John the Baptist joyfully declared, “He must increase, but I must decrease,” we are called to center our lives on Christ above everything else. Whether you’re exploring faith or seeking to grow deeper in your walk with Christ, this message will encourage you to joyfully embrace His rule and rest in His greatness. 📖 Scripture: John 3:22–36 (ESV)

What does it really mean to believe in Jesus? In John 2:23–3:20, we encounter one of the most important conversations in the Bible—Jesus’ late-night discussion with Nicodemus. Nicodemus had religion, knowledge, and status, yet Jesus told him something shocking: “You must be born again.” In this message, we discover that seeing and entering God’s kingdom requires more than good morals, religious effort, or sincere belief. It requires a supernatural work of God—a new birth. If you’re going to see God’s kingdom, you need more than good religion—you need a new birth. Join us as we walk through this powerful passage and see why spiritual rebirth is essential for every person who wants to truly know God. Scripture: John 2:23–3:20

Today Alex Woods, a minister with Campus Outreach at NC A&T State University take us into 1 Samuel 1 and explore the power, posture, and purpose of prayer through the story of Hannah. In a season of deep pain and longing, Hannah teaches us what it truly means to seek God with sincerity, humility, and commitment. Her prayer wasn’t polished—it was real. And God responded. Scripture: 1 Samuel 1 (CSB) No matter what you're carrying today, prayer opens the door for God to move in powerful ways.

What happens when Jesus walks into the room — and takes over? In John 2, Jesus enters the Temple and turns everything upside down. But this wasn't destruction for its own sake. This was restoration. This was reclamation. Jesus was reclaiming His Father's house and returning it to its original, holy purpose. Join us LIVE as we explore what it truly means when Jesus Takes Over the House — and what that means for us today. In this message, we'll discover: ✦ How Jesus transforms God's house into a house of inclusion — where all are welcomed to the Father ✦ How Jesus transforms God's house into a house of life — where the dead find resurrection and the broken find healing ✦ How Jesus transforms God's house into a house of faith — where trust in God is restored and renewed 📖 Scripture: John 2:13-22 (ESV)

"This, the first of his signs, Jesus did at Cana in Galilee, and manifested his glory. And his disciples believed in him." - John 2:11 In this transformative message, we'll explore three key truths from Jesus' first miracle: ⏰ God's Glory on God's Time Understanding divine timing vs. human urgency Learning to wait with faith and expectation Trusting God's perfect schedule for breakthrough 🏺 God's Glory Through Ordinary Means How God uses everyday people and situations Finding the sacred in the common Your role in God's miraculous work 💪 God's Glory for Our Faith Building unshakeable trust in God's character Moving from doubt to confident expectation Living with supernatural hope This message is for all of us but especially for those who are waiting for God's breakthrough in their life or those struggling with timing and trust issues. We hope this sermon will help to deepen your faith about Jesus' miraculous power. 📖 Scripture: John 2:1-12 (ESV)

What are you seeking? In this message from John 1:35–51, we walk alongside the first disciples as they encounter Jesus and respond to His invitation to “come and see.” When John the Baptist declares that Jesus is the Lamb of God, everything changes. Because Jesus is the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world, we cannot remain where we are. If we truly see Him for who He is, we must follow. This message challenges us personally and as a church: Are we standing still, or are we actively following the Lamb of God? Scripture: John 1:35-51(ESV)

We are back!! Join us for this week’s worship and message, “The Heart of Christian Witness.” Our passage from John 1:19–34 reminds us that our Christian witness must always point to Jesus—because He is God’s plan for saving the world. If we are to truly bear witness, Christ must remain at the very center of our lives and message. In today’s message, we’ll explore: ✨ The Context of Christian Witness – Understanding where and how our witness takes shape. ✨ The Contour of Christian Witness – What genuine, Christ-centered witness looks like in our world. ✨ The Confirmation of Christian Witness – How God Himself affirms and empowers our testimony. 🙏 We invite you to open your heart and reflect on how your life can point others to Jesus. 📖 Scripture: John 1:19-34 (ESV)

What does it truly mean to know God—not at a distance, but up close and personal? In the opening verses of John’s Gospel, we are introduced to Jesus as the Word made flesh—God’s self-revelation who has stepped into our world. This passage invites us to see reality differently, beginning with Christ Himself. Main Point: Because Jesus is God’s Word made flesh, He is the starting point for how we see the world, ourselves, and our God. In this message, we will explore how Jesus is revealed as: The Word of Creation — through whom all things were made The Word of Life — the true light who overcomes darkness The Word of Grace — God drawing near to us in mercy and truth. Join us live as we begin our new sermon series, That You May Know, and discover how knowing Jesus reshapes everything. 🙏 Come ready to listen, reflect, and worship. 📖 Scripture: John 1:1–14 (ESV)

Life in Christ is not meant to be lived in isolation. In Colossians 3:12–17, the Apostle Paul paints a beautiful picture of what it means to share life together as God’s chosen people — clothed in compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience. Join us for this week’s message, “Not Alone: The Shared Life of Faith,” as we explore: The Character of a Shared Life – Who we are becoming together in Christ The Tone of a Shared Life – How grace and gratitude shape our relationships The Practices of a Shared Life – What we do together to reflect Christ’s love to the world Whether you’re new to faith or have been following Jesus for years, this message will remind you that you’re not alone — we were made to grow together in Him. 📖 Scripture: Colossians 3:12-17 (ESV)

In Luke 1:67–80, Zechariah erupts in praise as he reflects on God’s faithfulness to His long-standing promises. After centuries of waiting, God is on the move—showing once again that He never forgets what He has promised to His people. Today we will explore how God’s promises anchor our hope, especially in seasons of uncertainty and fear. The birth of John the Baptist points us to a God whose commitment has not changed and whose promises find their fulfillment in Jesus. Whether you’re weary from waiting or longing for assurance, this passage reminds us that our hope is secure because it rests in a faithful God. 📖 Scripture: Luke 1:67-80

In this week’s message, we turn to Micah 5:1–6 to behold the joy that breaks into the darkness through the coming of God’s true King. In a world under siege—spiritually, emotionally, and morally—Micah announces a ruler who is unlike any other. Jesus is the King who delivers us from the siege of sin and death, and because he has come, we can trust in his kingship instead of our own strength. Come ready to encounter the hope, joy, and confidence that flow from the reign of Jesus our King! 📖 Scripture: Micah 5:1-6

Text: Luke 1:46–55 (The Magnificat) As Christmas approaches, it can feel harder than ever to get into the “holiday spirit.” The world is heavy, injustices are loud, and sometimes “chestnuts roasting on an open fire” just doesn’t land. So where do we turn when the season of joy feels out of reach? In this episode, we look to an unlikely voice: a young, marginalized girl living under an oppressive empire—Mary. Her song, the Magnificat, isn’t sentimental fluff. It’s a revolutionary proclamation. A cry for justice. A promise of mercy. A declaration that God is turning the world upside down.

When darkness feels heavy… when guilt weighs deep… and when injustice seems loud… where do we turn? In Micah 7:7–10, we hear one of the boldest declarations of hope in all of Scripture: "But as for me, I will look to the LORD… my God will hear me." This sermon reminds us that real hope is not found in circumstances changing — it is found in God remaining faithful.

This week’s message we explore Psalm 145 and discover the beautiful truth that in Jesus, God reveals the true character of His kingship. When we see who He is, we cannot help but praise Him.

Welcome to Part3 of our One New Man series from book of Ephesians. Chapter 3 verses 14-21 remind us that God Himself shapes the identity of His multicultural family. To reflect His glory, we must depend fully on Him.

Ephesians 3:1-13 Through the gospel the members of God’s multiethnic church are heirs together of all of God’s promises in Christ. Therefore we must embrace our unity as Christians.

Ephesians 2:11-22 Since Jesus' sacrifice on the cross has healed our divisions we must work live as a reconciled community.

Luke 7:36-50 The gospel posture that brings true repentance, forgiveness and redemption is consistently being at the feet of Jesus.

Ephesians 1:1-14 God has poured out his blessings on us in Jesus to draw us to praise his glorious character.
