    Lawsuits, Eternity, and Taking an "L" | 1 Corinthians | MIDWEEK | May 13, 2026

    In 1 Corinthians 6, Paul confronts a shocking issue in the church — believers suing other believers in secular courts. But this isn’t just about lawsuits. It’s about pride, humility, authority, and how Christians handle conflict.What does it mean that believers will one day judge the world and angels? Why would Paul say it’s better to “take the loss” than to fight for your rights? And how should the cross reshape the way we respond to injustice?This message challenges us to rethink conflict, surrender our pride, and trust God enough to choose unity over personal victory.Sometimes honoring Jesus means taking an “L.”

    Everybody Needs Somebody | ACTS: The Movement | May 10, 2026

    In Acts 9, Saul’s dramatic conversion didn’t end on the Damascus road — it continued through the people God placed around him. Ananias helped him see. Other believers helped him escape danger. Barnabas saw his potential and believed in him when no one else would.We all have blind spots. We all face trouble. We all need encouragement.The Holy Spirit works through people — and spiritual growth often happens in relationships. Everybody needs somebody… and we’re all called to be somebody for someone else.If you’ve ever needed help seeing clearly, getting out of trouble, or stepping into your purpose — this message is for you.

    Hold Up, Wait A Minute | 1 Corinthians | MIDWEEK | May 6, 2026

    As we step into 1 Corinthians 5, Paul confronts something the Corinthian church had begun to tolerate: sexual immorality that blurred the lines between the church and the culture around it.In a city so morally corrupt that “to act like a Corinthian” meant sexual debauchery, the unthinkable was happening — and the church had grown prideful instead of grieved.In this message, we wrestle with hard but necessary truths:• When culture blurs the lines, the church must be resolute.• Pride creates blind spots that keep us from promise.• Sin spreads like yeast — what we let sit will eventually fester.• Correction is never about control — it’s about restoration under the authority of Jesus.Paul reminds us: we are called to be different.Not harsh. Not self-righteous. But holy.Because discipline, repentance, and difficult conversations aren’t about exclusion — they’re about salvation.If there’s something festering, it’s better to address it now than deal with the fallout later.

    Not Too Far Gone | ACTS: The Movement | May 03, 2026

    In Acts 9, Saul was violent, prideful, and determined to destroy the church... yet Jesus met him on the road to Damascus and changed everything. This sermon reminds us that no one is beyond the reach of God’s grace, and that we should keep praying, believing, and hoping for those who seem far from Jesus.

    Relationship with Spiritual Authority | 1 Corinthians | MIDWEEK | April 29, 2026

    What does a healthy relationship between spiritual leadership and a congregation actually look like?In 1 Corinthians 4:14–21, Paul speaks not as a celebrity leader, but as a spiritual father. He confronts arrogance, challenges consumer Christianity, and calls the church to maturity rooted in honor, imitation, and transformation.In a culture shaped by honor/shame—and in our modern age shaped by consumerism and social media—this message wrestles with critical questions:What is the difference between shame and loving admonition?Why does consumer Christianity produce spiritual shallowness?What does it mean to have “10,000 instructors” but one spiritual father?Why is imitation—not just information—the model for discipleship?How do humility and submission protect both leaders and congregants?What does it look like to honor spiritual authority without enabling abuse?Paul reminds us:The Kingdom of God is not a lot of talk — it is power.Spiritual depth is not about what we know — it’s about who we are becoming.And healthy church relationships require mutual commitment, integrity, honor, and accountability.Contentious or loving.A rod or a gentle spirit.The choice isn’t just Paul’s — it’s ours.

    Saved, Sanctified, and Delivered | ACTS: The Movement | April 26, 2026

    When Life Gives You Lemons.... | MIDWEEK | April 22, 2026

    Fresh off the miracle of the Red Sea, Israel finds itself in a wilderness… without water. And when they finally do find it, it’s bitter.In Exodus 15:22–27, we discover a powerful truth: sometimes God leads us from victory into testing — not to harm us, but to reveal what’s in us.At Marah, the people complained.Moses cried out.And God revealed a tree that turned bitterness into sweetness.In this message, we unpack four life-shaping truths:1️⃣ Led into the Wilderness – Not every dry season means you missed God. Sometimes He leads you there.2️⃣ Isolate Negativity – Bitterness spreads if it’s not dealt with (Hebrews 12:15).3️⃣ Find the Tree – The same God who allows the test provides the remedy.4️⃣ Enjoy Abundance – Marah wasn’t the destination. Elim was waiting.If you’re walking through a bitter season, this message is a reminder: God is not just your Deliverer — He is “the Lord who heals you.”What feels bitter today may be the setup for abundance tomorrow.

    Why Can’t I Be Baptized? | ACTS: The Movement | April 19, 2026

    Why did the Ethiopian eunuch ask, “Why can’t I be baptized?” In this powerful message from Acts 8, we look at Philip’s Spirit-led encounter, the urgency of salvation, and the deeper meaning of baptism. This sermon explores how God leads believers, how we guide others to Jesus, and why baptism is more than just a symbol, it is an act of obedience, surrender, and identification with Christ. If you’ve ever wondered whether baptism matters, what it means, or why someone should respond right away, this message will challenge and encourage you.

    Servants and Stewards | 1 Corinthians | MIDWEEK | April 15, 2026

    As we continue our journey through 1 Corinthians, we step into chapter 4 where Paul confronts a culture obsessed with status, celebrity, and success.The Corinthian church had created a “pecking order” — boasting in leaders and elevating personalities. But Paul flips the script.He calls himself an under-rower — a servant beneath the deck.He reminds us that we are not owners, but stewards of the mysteries of God.And he makes it clear: what God requires is not success… but faithfulness.In this message, we unpack:Why humility destroys a celebrity mindsetWhat true stewardship requires (intentionality, trustworthiness, faith, and sacrifice)Why faithfulness matters more than achievementHow to handle opinions without being ruled by themAnd why we must continually pray, “Search me, O God.”At the end of the day, it’s not the crowd’s evaluation that matters.It’s not even our own.It is the Lord who examines the heart.If we’re going to build correctly, lead correctly, and live correctly — our motives must stay on the altar.

    The Miraculous and Unexplainable | ACTS: The Movement | April 12, 2026

    What if miracles are not something we chase, but something we become positioned for? In this message from Acts 8, we look at Philip in Samaria and how obedience, character, and the power of the Holy Spirit opened the door for the miraculous. This sermon explores divine healing, spiritual warfare, the activity of the Holy Spirit, and why obedience is a magnet for the miraculous. If you’ve ever wondered how God works through ordinary people, small beginnings, and surrendered lives, this message will encourage your faith and challenge you to walk closely with the Miracle Worker. Based on Acts 8, this teaching reminds us that God still moves in power today.

    Waiting with the Lord | Mountain Movers | MIDWEEK | April 8, 2026

    Waiting is uncomfortable. It feels inefficient. It confronts our need for control. And yet… waiting is God’s preferred method of spiritual formation.In Part 2 of Waiting on the Lord, we revisit five things to REMEMBER in seasons of delay and four things to DO while you WAIT — Write, Act, Imitate, Trust.But this message goes deeper.We explore the hard truth that:Delay is not denial.Waiting is not punishment — it’s preparation.God’s priority is our holiness, not our hurry.What if waiting isn’t the pause… but the process?What if God is more concerned with who you’re becoming than what you’re receiving?From Romans 8:28 to Psalm 27:14, we’re reminded that hope isn’t optimism — it’s disciplined waiting. That lament is biblical. That gratitude before the answer is faith. And that we aren’t just waiting on God… we’re waiting with Him.If you’re in a season of unanswered prayer, delay, or silent suffering, this message will anchor your heart in truth:Waiting is inevitable.But it doesn’t have to be wasted.

    The Oil Still Works | Plant the Flag | MIDWEEK | April 8, 2026

    In 1 Samuel 17:38–51, we revisit the familiar story of David and Goliath—but through the lens of the anointing. When David stepped onto the battlefield, he didn’t just carry a sling—he carried oil that had already been poured over his life.As Pastor Heath Adamson says, “The anointing is when heaven's resource and human authenticity collide.”In this message, we see that:• Anointed men are resolute.• Anointed men are focused.• Anointed men prepare for promises they didn’t even know existed.And in 2 Samuel 21:15–19, we discover that the oil on David didn’t just defeat one giant—it sustained a legacy.The oil still works. The anointing still empowers. And what God has placed on your life still matters.

    Victorious | Easter Sunday | April 05, 2026

    This Easter message, Victorious, is a powerful reminder that the resurrection of Jesus Christ is not just a symbol of hope, but a real and world-changing victory. In this sermon, we walk through John 19–20 and explore how the empty tomb proves that Jesus is victorious over death, sin, fear, shame, darkness, and every power of hell.From Joseph of Arimathea and Nicodemus stepping out of secrecy, to Mary Magdalene, John, and Peter running to the tomb, this message shows that the resurrection is for everyone: the broken, the burdened, the ashamed, and the faithful. If Jesus walked out of the grave, then hope is not dead, your story is not over, and victory is possible in Christ.This Easter sermon will encourage anyone who feels buried under grief, guilt, confusion, pain, or impossible circumstances. Jesus is alive, and because He is victorious, we can live in His victory too. Watch and be reminded: the empty tomb changes everything.

    The Old Rugged Cross | Passion Part 4 | March 29, 2026

    Why does the cross of Jesus still matter so deeply today? In this sermon, The Old Rugged Cross, we walk through the crucifixion of Christ chronologically and uncover powerful truths about forgiveness, suffering, paradise, victory, and the love of God. From Simon carrying the cross, to the two criminals, to Jesus crying “It is finished,” this message is a reminder that the cross is more than a symbol, it is the center of our faith. If you want to understand the meaning of the cross, the passion of Christ, and what Jesus accomplished through His death, this sermon will encourage and stir your heart.

    Put the Bottle Down | 1 Corinthians | MIDWEEK | March 25, 2026

    Three to five years after planting the church in Corinth, Paul writes a hard but loving correction: You should be ready for more by now.In this message from 1 Corinthians 3, we confront spiritual immaturity, flesh-driven living, pride, and misplaced loyalty—and we’re challenged to move from milk to meat. God is calling His church to grow up, lay down jealousy and division, and build lives on the only foundation that lasts: Jesus Christ.We don’t need the credit. We need faithfulness.We don’t build overnight. We build intentionally.And we don’t do this alone—we are God’s temple together.It’s time to put the bottle down, step into maturity, and build something that will stand when the fire comes.

  16. 358

    The Trial | Passion Part 3 | March 22, 2026

    In this message from the PASSION series, we walk through the trial of Jesus and see how betrayal, false accusations, religious hypocrisy, political compromise, and mob pressure all surrounded Christ, yet He remained fully surrendered to the Father’s mission. We talk about how Jesus stayed in control even in suffering, why truth still matters, how trials reveal what we are truly passionate about, and what it means to keep our eyes on Jesus when life feels complicated.If you’ve ever wrestled with betrayal, confusion, injustice, regret, or a difficult season that doesn’t make sense, this message is a powerful reminder: God can bring the greatest good out of what looks most wrong. Jesus took the place of the guilty, just as He took our place on the cross.

    Death to Fruit | Passion Part 2 | March 15, 2026

    What are the dead things in your life? In this powerful message from Luke 22, Pastor Curtis shares how Jesus is passionate about bringing dead things to life. From the Garden of Gethsemane to the cross, this sermon unpacks how Jesus meets us in suffering, calls us to obedience, and leads us beyond survival into fruitfulness.If you’ve been walking through pain, loss, spiritual dryness, broken relationships, or disappointment, this message is a reminder that God is not finished. What feels dead may not be over. Some things need resurrection, and some things simply need awakening. Through tears, surrender, and obedience, God can restore what feels broken and bring lasting fruit from places of pain.This sermon explores:Jesus in GethsemaneDead things vs. sleeping thingsThe power of tears in prayerObedience in sufferingGod’s desire not only to bring life, but fruitBe encouraged today: Jesus is still passionate about bringing dead th

    Put Your Name On It | MIDWEEK | March 4, 2026

    As children of God, we have rights that cannot be revoked from us-one of those rights is healing. We examine an unconventional story in the gospel in which Jesus progressively heals a blind man by touching him twice, a narrative full of “immediately". Despite the process, healing is MINE-let’s put our name on it!

    The Betrayal, The Bread, and The Basin | Passion Part 1 | March 08, 2026

    What really happened at the Last Supper? In this message from the new PASSION series, we explore the powerful moments leading up to the crucifixion of Jesus:  the betrayal of Judas, the breaking of the bread, and the washing of the disciples’ feet.Through John 13 and Mark 14, this sermon reveals how Jesus responded to betrayal, how communion points to His sacrifice, and how the humble act of foot washing demonstrates the heart of Christ. The Passion of Jesus was not just suffering, it was love, purpose, and redemption.Discover how the Passion of Christ should awaken passion in us, shaping how we live, serve, and follow Jesus today.

    Plan, Vision, Dream | Invested Part 3 | March 01, 2026

    What does God actually want you to do with your money?In this final message of the INVESTED series, we talk about something deeper than budgeting or debt, we talk about vision, planning, and dreaming with God in your finances.In a world where 78% of Americans live paycheck to paycheck and financial stress impacts marriages and families, Scripture gives us a different path. From Malachi 3 to Matthew 6, from Joseph’s famine plan to Paul’s missionary strategy, the Bible shows us that planning is wisdom, vision requires faith, and generosity unlocks purpose.This message walks through three powerful layers:• PLAN – Create a practical, disciplined strategy for what’s in your hands• VISION – Ask God what He wants to do beyond what you currently have• DREAM – Carry a faith-filled generosity goal that would require supernatural interventionGod gives us the ability to produce wealth (Deuteronomy 8:17–18), not so we can serve money, but so we can partner with Him in advancing His Kingdom.This isn’t about giving to get.It’s about getting positioned so you can give.If you’ve ever wondered:Should Christians budget?What does the Bible say about financial planning?Is tithing still relevant?How do I dream with God financially?How do I break free from financial stress?This message is for you.

    Maturity of the Saints | 1 Corinthians | MIDWEEK | February 25, 2026

    In this message from 1 Corinthians 1:18–2:16, we explore the Wisdom of God and the Maturity of the Saints. In a culture obsessed with status, intellect, and influence, Paul boldly declares that the message of the cross is still “foolish” to the world—but to those being saved, it is the power and wisdom of God.What does it mean to boast only in Christ? How do we grow from spiritual infancy into maturity? And how does humility position us to know the deep things of God?This sermon challenges us to resist cultural pride, embrace the “foolishness” of the cross, pursue real spiritual maturity, and move from simply being children of God to becoming friends of God.

  22. 352

    Lost and Found | One Big Sunday | February 22, 2026

    Why does heaven throw a party over one sinner?In this powerful message from Luke 15, we explore the three parables of Jesus: The Lost Sheep, the Lost Coin, and the Prodigal Son, and uncover the scandalous, relentless mercy of God.This sermon challenges the Pharisee in all of us and reminds us:• Mercy triumphs over judgment• The Shepherd searches until He finds• The Father runs before shame can reach you• Heaven celebrates when the lost come homeWhether you feel like:– The sheep who wandered– The coin who didn’t even know you were lost– The son who willfully walked awayJesus is searching, sweeping, watching, and waiting.

    A House Divided | 1 Corinthians | MIDWEEK | February 18, 2026

    Corinth was a wealthy, competitive city—home to the Isthmian Games—and that same competitive spirit had crept into the church. In 1 Corinthians, Paul the Apostle confronts one of their biggest issues: division.“I follow Paul.” “I follow Apollos.” “I follow Peter.”Paul responds with a powerful question: Has Christ been divided?In this message, we unpack:Why we advance at the speed of our unityWhat’s actually worth fighting overThe importance of uniting around purpose—not preferenceWhy the Gospel must remain centralWe’re not called to personality-driven faith or cultural Christianity—we’re called to be united around Christ and committed to preaching the Gospel in both word and power.If you need salvation, healing, or restoration, Jesus is still moving today.

    Mere Christianity | Plant the Flag | MIDWEEK | February 11, 2026

    In this message, we explore the life and faith of C. S. Lewis, author of Mere Christianity and The Chronicles of Narnia, and close friend of J. R. R. Tolkien (author of The Lord of the Rings). From trench warfare to wartime radio broadcasts, Lewis’s journey from atheism to faith shaped a powerful defense of Christianity.We dive into the Cardinal and Theological Virtues, with a focus on “Charity” as love rooted in the will—not just emotion. This teaching challenges men to live convinced, convicted, and confident lives, building character through daily obedience, discipline, and devotion to God.Be encouraged to love God and others through faithful action—one decision at a time.

    Freedom From Mammon | Invested Part 2 | February 15, 2026

    Are you serving God… or serving money?In this powerful message from the INVESTED series, we unpack what Jesus meant when He said, “You cannot serve both God and mammon.” Is money evil? What does the Bible really say about wealth, tithing, generosity, and stewardship?This sermon dives deep into:• The true meaning of “mammon”• How money can enslave both the rich and the poor• What Jesus taught in Matthew 6 about worry and provision• 1 Timothy 6:10 and the love of money• Practical wisdom from Proverbs and Ecclesiastes• Keys to walking in financial freedom and peaceWhen we shift from ownership to stewardship and from fear to faith, we experience peace that mammon can never give.

    Peep My Drip | MIDWEEK | January 14, 2026

    In this message from Exodus 28:31–35, we explore how worship is more than a moment—it’s a garment we wear. Drawing from the priestly garments, we see how worship carries God’s glory, produces a sound in the spirit, and prepares us to enter holy places. This sermon challenges us to consider what we’re “wearing” as we come before the Lord and how our worship positions us for His presence.

    Tonight we dive into the story of Jacob and Esau and the danger of hasty decisions. From Abraham’s obedience to Isaac’s submission, to Esau trading his birthright for a bowl of stew, Scripture shows us how easy it is to exchange what’s eternal for what’s temporary.We look at how God’s plan transcends culture, how dysfunction doesn’t have to define us, and how our choices—big or small—shape our destiny. As children of God, we carry a birthright and an inheritance we cannot afford to trade away.Stay rooted. Don’t rush. Don’t be hasty. God is working in the now just as much as He did before.

    In the Thick of It | Origins Week 8 | MIDWEEK | December 3, 2025

In Genesis 22, we see one of the most powerful moments in Scripture—the binding of Isaac—where God tests Abraham’s obedience and reveals Himself as Jehovah Jireh, the God who provides.In this message, we explore how God often shows us the big picture long before we understand the process, why obedience unlocks provision, and how every piece we need is already in our lives—even when it feels overwhelming.If you’re waiting on a promise, walking through uncertainty, or wondering how God will come through, this message will encourage you to trust God’s timing, His process, and His supernatural provision.God sees. God knows. God will provide.
