Nehemiah 9:5-38 

Nehemiah 8

Nehemiah 4

Burden without action is just guilt. Nehemiah knew the difference.In this episode, we're in Nehemiah 2 breaking down what biblical leadership actually looks like — prayer before planning, vision before action, and letting your burden become your calling.What if the thing weighing on you is exactly where God is sending you?

Jesus saw the crowds and was broken by them. Are we?In this episode, we sit in Matthew 9 and ask a hard question — when's the last time the hurting world around you actually moved you? We trace the line from compassion to prayer to action, and why you can't have one without the other.Come broken. Leave sent.

Philippians 3:12-4:1

This week’s sermon explores how people pleasing can quietly become an idol, shaping our identity, decisions, and desire for approval. Rooted in Galatians 1:10, it challenges us to examine whose approval we’re truly seeking and calls us to find our identity fully in Christ.

Are you chasing a relationship like it’s the missing piece of your life? In this episode, Chase exposes how easily we idolize dating, looking for identity, validation, and fulfillment in someone else instead of Christ.

Seeking comfort isn't about avoiding hardship but finding God's presence within it; He's the "God of all comfort" (2 Corinthians 1:3)

Chase discusses what are we serving and what is causing us anxiety in our plan. Are we idolizing the future us? Or are we living for today , and trusting God with tomorrow.

Ecclesiastes 12Life is short, but Christ gives us meaning and fulfillment.

Ecclesiastes 7Living wisely is a good things, but we will still struggle with the effects of a sinful world and our limited wisdom. The wisest thing we can do is fear God.

Ecclesiastes 4 & 5Our contentment is not found in money. It is found in an eternal relationship with Christ.

Sin leads to evil, wickedness, and death. God will judge the sinful and righteous. Ultimately, Christ is the answer to a world full of sin. 

Time is fleeting, but God is in control. Trust Him, enjoy the gifts He has given us, and live for eternity.

If true contentment does not lie in anything we can do, then what can we do to find it? It can only be found in the Lord!
