-
What Are You Aiming For? | Romans 15:14-33
Living without a clear direction leaves us feeling fractured, constantly wasting our time and energy on things that ultimately do not matter. When the story of Jesus sets our focus, everything changes, transforming how we speak, work, and relate to the people around us. Drawing from the final...
-
Set the Bar | Romans 15:1–13
If we set the standard for our own Christian life, most of us will set it somewhere comfortable—high enough to look like we’re trying, low enough that we know we can reach it. This week in Romans 15, Paul raises the bar to where Jesus set it: bear with the weak, stop living to please yourself,...
-
Why We Argue Over Our Personal Freedoms | Romans 14
We often struggle to know how to treat one another when our personal convictions and freedoms clash. Whether we judge others for what they do or look down on them for what they avoid, division easily creeps into our relationships. The Apostle Paul addresses this exact tension in the book of…

Wake Up—It's Time To Live In The Light | Romans 13:11-14
The night is almost over. The day is coming. So why are so many of us still sleepwalking through life? This week in Romans 13, Paul sounds an urgent alarm: wake up, put on the armor of light, and stop making provision for the flesh. It's not just about what sins to stop—it's about what you're…

Love Your Community & The Difficult Ones Too | Romans 12:9-21
It's easy to be kind to kind people. The real test comes when someone gets under your skin. This week in Romans 12, Paul calls the church to something completely countercultural—a genuine love that blesses those who hurt you, weeps with those who weep, refuses to repay evil for evil, and leaves...
-
Spiritual Gifts: Leadership & Mercy
God could have made every believer great at everything. He didn't—and that was on purpose. This week we wrap up our series on spiritual gifts with the final two: leading and mercy. Leaders cast vision, organize, and guide people toward a destination. Those with the gift of mercy run toward the...
-
Spiritual Gifts: Encouragement & Giving | Romans 12:6-8
God didn't give you a spiritual gift to sit on—He gave it to give away. This week we continue our series on spiritual gifts with two more from Romans 12: encouragement and giving. Whether you're the person who always knows the right thing to say, or the one who quietly looks for ways to be...
-
Spiritual Gifts: Service & Teaching | Romans 12:6-7
God gives every person unique spiritual gifts not to keep hidden, but to give away for the building of His church. When we refuse to use these gifts out of fear, busyness, or doubt, we miss out on the energy and joy that come from serving alongside our Savior. We examine the specific spiritual...
-
Spiritual Gifts: Prophecy | Romans 12:3-8
God didn't just save you from something—He saved you for something. This week we kick off a new series on spiritual gifts, starting with an honest question: do you know what yours is? Some of us don't know. Some of us know but aren't sure what to do with it. Some of us know and are sitting on it...
-
Mercy That Changes Everything | Romans 12:1-2
What captures your mind shapes your life—and what shapes your life reveals what you actually worship. This week we land on one of the most pivotal passages in all of Romans: the moment Paul shifts from doctrine to daily life. After eleven chapters of what God has done, he asks one question—now…
more -
A Heart at Rest | Psalm 131
In just three verses, one of the shortest psalms in Scripture maps the path from restlessness to rest. This week we sit with Psalm 131 and trace three movements of a soul finding peace: rejecting pride, resting in God, and living with hope. Pride—in our hearts, our eyes, and our pursuits—is what...
-
How Are You Walking? | Psalm 1
Blessed isn't just a feeling—it's a direction. Psalm 1 opens the entire book of Psalms with a simple but searching question: which way are you headed? This week we walk through three tests that reveal the trajectory of your life—where you're walking, where you're standing, and where you're…
more -
My God, Why? | Psalm 22
One of the most anguished cries in all of Scripture—and Jesus quoted it from the cross. This week we open Psalm 22 on three levels: as David's personal cry, as a prophetic picture of the crucifixion written a thousand years before it happened, and as a mirror for our own moments of feeling...
-
God Cares About the Details of My Life | Psalm 139
It's easy to wonder if God is paying attention—to your specific life, your specific struggles, your specific story. Psalm 139 answers that question with overwhelming clarity. This week we look at four reasons we know God cares about the details: He knows you completely, He is always with you, He...
-
God Is Not Finished | Romans 11
Has God given up? Abandoned His people? Lost control of the story? Romans 11 answers with a resounding no. This week we see three movements in God's unfinished work: His grace preserving a remnant when all seemed lost, His mercy expanding to include the nations, and His wisdom so vast and...
-
Sent with Good News | Romans 10:13–21
Someone told you about Jesus. And someone told them. This week in Romans 10, Paul traces the beautiful chain of how faith spreads—from God sending, to someone going, to someone hearing, to someone believing. We are that link in the chain for the people around us. Not everyone will receive it, but...
-
Simplicity Over Complexity | Romans 10:1-13
Salvation isn't complicated, but we have a way of making it feel that way. This week in Romans 10, Paul lays out three simple challenges that cut through the noise: pray for the people around you, understand that God's way is simpler than you think, and stop letting what you know in your head…
more -
Is God Really Good? Part 2 | Romans 9:14–33
Is God unjust? Did He make a mistake with you? Does He actually love you? This week we finish the questions Romans 9 forces us to wrestle with — and the answers are better than we might expect. You are not an accident. You are not forgotten. You are His workmanship, chosen to be His people. But...
-
Is God Really Good? | Romans 9:14–24
When life is hard and things don't make sense, the questions surface fast—is God unjust? Did He make a mistake with me? Does He actually love me? This week we sit with some of the most challenging verses in Romans and work through three of the hardest questions we ask about God. The answer Paul...
-
It's Always Been About Grace | Romans 9
You don't get into God's family by race. You don't get in by works. You never have. This week we step into Romans 9 and trace a thread that runs all the way from Genesis to the cross—God's plan of salvation has always operated by grace, not bloodline or effort. Paul writes with a broken heart for...
-
It's Going To Be Hard, But You're Not Alone | Men's Retreat 2026
Session 4: The Christian life is not easy, but it’s worth it. And you are not meant to fight alone.
-
You Have An Enemy | Men's Retreat 2026
Session 3: The enemy is real, relentless, and dirty. But we do not fight for victory—we fight from victory.
-
Be Ready, Be Prepared, Start Your Training | Men's Retreat 2026
Session 2: The fight requires preparation. You won’t survive without training, discipline, and guidance.
-
Get In The Fight | 2026 Men's Retreat
Session 1: Starting is the hardest part, but passivity is not an option. Men must recognize the spiritual fight they’re in and step into it.
-
Nothing Can Separate You | Romans 8:33–39
No charge can stand against you. No condemnation remains. No circumstance—no matter how dark, how painful, or how long it lasts—can cut you off from the love of God. This week we close out Romans 8 with three truths that anchor the soul: God has justified you, Christ is interceding for you right...
-
God Is Working | Romans 8:28–32
Romans 8:28 is one of the most quoted verses in the Bible—and one of the most misunderstood. It doesn't say everything is good, or that God causes every painful thing. It says that for those who love God, He is actively working all things together for good. This week we unpack three ways God is...
-
The Best Is Yet to Come | Romans 8:17–27
Whatever you're carrying right now, it's not the end of the story. This week we look at four promises God gives us in the middle of suffering—future glory that outweighs every hard moment, a creation made completely new, full redemption of everything broken, and a Holy Spirit who intercedes for…
more -
Children of God | Romans 8:12–18
You're not just forgiven—you're family. This week we continue in Romans 8 and unpack what it actually means to be a child of God. The Spirit leads us to fight sin, cry out to God as Father, and live as heirs of everything He owns—even when life is hard. Suffering doesn't mean something's gone...
-
In Christ, Everything Changes | Romans 8:1–11
No condemnation. A renewed mind. The same Spirit that raised Jesus from the dead—living in you. Romans 8 is one of the most powerful chapters in Scripture, and this week we unpack why being in Christ changes everything. A new way to walk, a new way to think, a new life to live—not based on how…
more -
Free, But Fighting | Romans 7:1-25
If you've ever loved God and still struggled with sin in the same breath, you're in good company—you're in Romans 7. This week we sit with one of the most honest passages in all of Scripture, where Paul describes the tension every believer feels: a heart that genuinely wants to do what's right…
more -
As Long As You're Breathing, Jesus Isn't Finished
A woman sick for 12 years. A man paralyzed for 38. A thief taking his last breaths on a cross. Jesus met every single one of them—and none of them were too far gone. This Easter, we look at one of the most remarkable moments in Scripture: a dying criminal with no good works, no religious record,...
-
Be the Friend Who Brings People to Jesus
When four friends couldn't get through the door, they cut through the roof. That kind of friendship — desperate, determined, and fueled by faith — is exactly what Jesus noticed. In this week's message, we look at the story of the paralytic and the four men who carried him, and ask a simple...
-
Who Is Your Master? | Romans 6:15–23
Everyone serves someone. The question isn't whether you have a master—it's who that master is. In this week's message, we dig into Romans 6 and unpack a simple but sobering truth: your master determines your direction, and your direction determines your destination. Whether you're living for sin…
more -
Don’t Resurrect the Guy Behind Bars
Romans 6 reminds us that grace is not a loophole for sin—it’s a jailbreak. Through Jesus, the old self has died and a new life has begun. Yet many believers keep returning to the prison Christ already set them free from. This message explores what it means to be united with Christ in His death…
more -
Two Reigns. Two Realms. Two Results.
Romans 5 contrasts two rulers and two realities that shape every human life. Through Adam, sin entered the world and death began to reign, bringing judgment and condemnation. But through Jesus Christ, grace now reigns, offering the free gift of righteousness, justification, and eternal life. This...
-
What Are You Rejoicing In?
In Romans 5, Paul shows that those who are justified by faith now have peace with God and a new reason to rejoice. Our joy is not rooted in circumstances, but in the hope of God’s promises, the purpose God works through our suffering, and the reconciliation we have through Jesus Christ. This...
-
When God Speaks A Future You Can't See
What do you do when God promises a future that feels impossible? In Romans 4, Abraham believed God—even when his circumstances said otherwise—and it was counted to him as righteousness. This message explores a faith that rests not on performance, but on God’s promise; not on human strength, but…
more -
Walk In The Footsteps of Faith
In Romans 4, Paul looks to Abraham to show that righteousness has never been earned—it has always been credited through faith. “Abraham believed God, and it was counted to him as righteousness.” This message reminds us that we are not justified by works, ritual, or performance, but by trusting…
more -
Not Good Enough, But Jesus Is
Romans 3 confronts us with a hard truth: none of us are good enough. All have sinned and fall short of God’s glory. No amount of knowledge, effort, or religious performance can justify us before a holy God. But the good news is better than we imagined. God has revealed a righteousness apart from...
-
All Fall Short--But God
In Romans 3, Paul asks some of life’s biggest spiritual questions: What advantage is there to knowing God’s Word? What if people are unfaithful? What then—are we any better off? And what’s next? This message walks through how God speaks to the world through creation, conscience, and Scripture…
more -
State of The Church 2026
In this year’s State of the Church message, we unpack our theme for 2026: Overflow—abounding in love for God and others. Rooted in Romans 5:5, we explore what it looks like to live a life filled by the Holy Spirit and marked by overflow in every area: our personal walk, our gifts, our...
-
The Bad News That Makes the Gospel Good
We all want to believe we’re “good enough”—but Romans 2 confronts us with a humbling truth: every one of us is guilty before God. In this message, we explore how we try to justify ourselves—by excusing our behavior, hiding behind knowledge, or relying on religious activity—and why none of it can...
-
The Gospel Over Everything

-
The Trade Off

-
The Gospel- Gods Power To Save
In our opening week in the book of Romans, Pastor Jeremiah examines the Gospel and how it defines believers and what we are called to do.
-
Expecting The Best
In Luke 2, Mary and Joseph bring little, Simeon waits with expectation, and Anna worships faithfully—each encountering Jesus in a different way. This message explores how seasons of waiting prepare our hearts, how God fulfills His promises in His timing, and how meeting Jesus always changes how…
more -
Follow Jesus and Don’t Look Back
In John 21, the resurrected Jesus meets His disciples back where it all began—by the sea, with an empty net and familiar doubts. Peter had failed, ran back to fishing, and carried the weight of regret. But Jesus meets him right there, restores him with grace, and calls him forward into purpose:...
-
What Do You Do With Doubt?
In this week’s message we walk through John 20:19–31 and the story of Thomas to see how Jesus responds to real questions, fear, and fragile faith. Doubt isn’t the enemy of faith—it’s often the doorway to deeper trust when we bring it to Jesus instead of letting it drive us. If you’re wrestling…
more -
From Graves to Gardens
In John 20:1–18, Mary, Peter, and John each arrive at the tomb expecting the worst—death, confusion, and unanswered questions. Instead, Jesus meets them with life, clarity, and restoration. This message shows how we often box God into our assumptions, yet He leads us into something far greater....
-
When You Come Face-To-Face With Jesus
Every person at the cross had to decide what to do with Jesus—Pilate feared the crowd, the religious leaders clung to pride, the soldiers mocked, and two secret followers finally stepped into the light. In this week’s message from John 19, we see that the cross exposes what’s really in every…
