First & Best | Week 2 | Who Gets the Throne?
After Abram returns from battle, he encounters two kings: Melchizedek, who blesses him in the name of God, and the king of Sodom, who offers him wealth. Abram's response reveals something about who he believes is truly King. We all have something sitting on the throne of our lives. Sometimes it's...
-
First & Best | Week 1 | What Do You Bring?
Cain and Abel both brought an offering to God, but there was a significant difference between what they brought. Abel brought the firstborn and the best portions of his flock, while Cain simply brought some of his crops. God doesn't simply want whatever happens to be left over after we've given…

Core Values | Week 4 | Discipleship
Discipleship isn't just about gaining more knowledge—it's about becoming more like Jesus and helping others do the same. Every follower of Christ has been called to invest in the spiritual growth of someone else.
-
Core Values | Week 3 | Service
God calls us to help those in need. Our mission is to spread the mercy and love of God by meeting people where they are and serving them with compassion.
-
Core Values | Week 2 | Worship
Worship is not just a Sunday morning experience—worship is a lifestyle. We are a church committed to exalting God in every aspect of our lives.
-
Core Values | Week 1 | Community
God designed His Church to be a family, not an audience. Healing, encouragement, accountability, and growth all flourish when believers intentionally pursue biblical community.
-
Attributes of God | Week 5 | God is Faithful
God always keeps his promises
-
Attributes of God | Week 4 | God Has a Purpose
God is accomplishing His purposes in the world—even when we can't see it.
-
Attributes of God | Week 3 | God is Good
Many people wonder if God is truly good when life is hard. In this message, we’ll look at one of the clearest descriptions of God’s character in Scripture and discover that everything He does flows from His perfect goodness, love, mercy, holiness, and justice. Because God has shown us incredible...
-
Attributes of God | Week 2 | God Knows
God knows everything and always knows the best way.
-
Attributes of God | Week 1 | God is Life
God is the source of all life, beauty, joy, and satisfaction. We were created to find our life in Him.
-
The Good Life | Week 4 | Fame v Purpose
We’ll all be known for something. Maybe our desire isn’t literal fame, but it can often be success, likeability, or acceptance. Are we living in a way that promotes and protects our kingdoms or God’s kingdom? Our purpose or God’s purpose? A good life is one that answers a call from God no matter...
-
The Good Life | Week 3 | Gratification v Holiness
it is easy to think a “good life” is achieved through our own gratification. Being filled and satisfied with desirable luxuries (abundance of food, comfort, travel, entertainment). The bible doesn’t say God wants our happiness, he invites us to holiness. Through holiness and living a Godly life,...
-
The Good Life | Week 2 | Wealth v Generosity
We will never be generous until we realize we have nothing. It’s not ours anyway.
-
The Good Life | Week 1 | Production v Peace
Sometimes God gives us a clear next step and calls us to act. Other times, our need to “figure it all out” steals our peace. Instead of relying on God, we default to striving, hustling, and people-pleasing, asking what builds our kingdom rather than God’s. But what if we paused to pray and seek...
-
The Story Before the Story | Week 4 | Old Testament and Today
The Old Testament is not obsolete — it is essential for understanding God’s holiness, humanity’s sinfulness, covenant, sacrifice, grace, and ultimately Jesus. The Old Testament still teaches, shapes, warns, and strengthens believers because it helps us know Jesus.
-
The Story Before the Story | Week 3 | Better and True
Every major Old Testament figure leaves us longing for a better version fulfilled in Jesus.
-
The Story Before the Story | Week 1 | One Story
Most people read the Old Testament as disconnected moral stories, but Jesus said the Scriptures were ultimately about Him. The Old Testament is not the story of Israel trying to find God; it is the story of God preparing the world for Jesus.
-
James | Week 8 | Enduring Faith
Mature faith perseveres through hardship, leans on prayer, and stays anchored in truth. It also reaches out to restore those who have drifted away.
-
James | Week 6 | Surrendered Faith
We often live like we’re in control, but faith calls us to surrender everything to God. That includes our future and our finances.
-
James | Week 6 | Internal Faith
There are two kinds of wisdom shaping our lives: one from the world and one from God. The difference is revealed in humility, peace, and the posture of our hearts.
-
James | Week 5 | Spoken Faith
Our words have the power to build up or tear down, revealing what’s really in our hearts. Spiritual maturity is seen in learning to control the tongue.
-
James | Week 3 | Relational Faith
The gospel eliminates favoritism and calls us to see people the way God does. Genuine faith shows up in how we treat those who can offer us nothing in return.
-
James | Week 2 |
It’s not enough to hear God’s Word—we’re called to live it out in everyday life. Real transformation happens when obedience moves from intention to action.
-
James | Week 1 | Tested Faith
Faith isn’t proven in comfort but in pressure, where trials reveal what we truly trust. God uses difficult seasons to grow endurance and shape us into spiritually mature people.

Psalms | Week 5 | Palm Sunday
Psalm 118 is a triumphant Psalm of thanksgiving and victory. It contains the words shouted on Palm Sunday: “Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord!” This Psalm finds direct fulfillment in Jesus’ triumphal entry (Matthew 21). The crowds quote Psalm 118 without fully realizing its depth.…

Psalms | Week 4 | The Suffering King
Psalm 69 is one of the most quoted Psalms in the New Testament. What begins as David’s cry of suffering becomes a prophetic window into Christ. This sermon shows how the suffering of David foreshadows the suffering of Jesus. The Psalm moves from anguish to confidence in God’s salvation—just as…
more -
Psalms | Week 3 | A Clean Heart
Psalm 51 is David’s prayer of repentance after his sin with Bathsheba (2 Samuel 11–12). This is not a polished religious prayer—it is raw confession. David is not managing his image; he is pleading for mercy. Psalm 51 shows that failure does not have to be final. When we come clean before God, He...
-
Psalms | Week 2 | The Downcast
Psalm 42 captures spiritual longing: “As the deer pants for streams of water…” This Psalm gives voice to those who feel spiritually dry, discouraged, or distant from God. How do you walk through anxiety, depression, doubt, or disappointment? The Psalmist models how to preach hope to himself…

Psalms | Week 1 | The Shepherd
Psalm 23 is one of the most beloved passages in all of Scripture. Written by David, a former shepherd himself, it paints a picture of a God who makes you, leads you, refreshes you, and guides you. Even in the midst of our enemies and the valley, the shepherd invites us to His table.
-
When Pigs Fly | Week 4 | I'll Follow When...
Some believe they must “clean themselves up” or fix their issues before following Jesus. This sermon uses Matthew’s calling (Matthew 9), Jesus saying He came for the sick, and the story of the Prodigal Son (Luke 15). The message: Jesus meets us before we are ready, not after. He calls imperfect...
-
When Pigs Fly | Week 3 | I'll Believe When...
Many people wrestle with doubts, questions, or intellectual barriers that keep them from trusting God. Using Nicodemus (John 3) and Thomas (John 20), this sermon shows that Jesus never rejects honest questions. Instead of waiting until all doubts disappear, Jesus invites people to take a step of...
-
When Pigs Fly | Week 2 | I’ll Fully Commit When…
Many people avoid full devotion because they’re waiting for the “right time.” Using the Rich Young Ruler (Mark 10) and Jesus’ statement “let the dead bury their own dead” (Luke 9:60), this sermon confronts the excuses that delay obedience. It challenges hearers to reorder priorities, choose...
-
When Pigs Fly | Week 1 | I'll Forgive When...
Forgiveness is often postponed—“I’ll forgive when they apologize… when things change… when I’m not angry anymore.” Through the Parable of the Unforgiving Servant (Matthew 18), this message reveals how unforgiveness traps us, and how Jesus calls us to forgive because we have been forgiven....
-
The Ruthless Elimination Of Hurry | Week 4 | Simplicity
Too often we think about our spiritual formation as more things we need to do. But what if our hurried life is actually the problem? An overstuffed life leads to an underdeveloped soul. Instead of making things more complicated with more things to do, we are going to simplify by eliminating…

The Ruthless Elimination Of Hurry | Week 3 | Silence and Solitude
Silence and Solitude are not optional for spiritual health - they were foundational to Jesus’ life and power. We will never hear God clearly if we are never quiet.
-
The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry | Week 2 | Sabbath
Sabbath is demonstrated from the very beginning of the world. But sabbath is not about stopping productivity - it’s about stopping to remember who really sustains our lives. Sabbath is the resistance against hurry and trust in God’s provision.
-
The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry | Week 1 | A Better Way
One of the biggest threats to our spiritual growth isn’t sin or the devil, it is hurry. Most people live lives that are too busy to live emotionally healthy and spiritually vibrant. What is the solution? It is exactly what Jesus preached and modeled: Slowing down.
-
Advent | Week 4 | Love
Advent - Week 4
-
Advent | Week 3 | Joy
Joy isn’t the same as happiness—it's deeper, stronger, and rooted in God’s presence, not our circumstances. In this Advent message, discover how gratitude for what God has done and hope for what He will do leads us to a joy we can actually choose and truly live in.
-
Advent | Week 2 | Peace
Christmas is supposed to be a season of peace… but for most of us, it feels more like stress, noise, and pressure. So why did the angels announce “peace on earth” at the birth of Jesus? And is real peace even possible in 2025? In this message, we look at Jesus as the Prince of Peace—the One who...
-
Advent | Week 1 | Hope
This sermon explores the true meaning of Advent as a season of waiting, reminding us that our hope is found not in circumstances but in the person of Jesus. By looking at “hope deferred,” God’s perfect timing, and the promise that Christ is coming again, we learn how to anchor our hearts in a…

Red Letters | Week 8 | Make Disciples
Many Christians know the Great Commission but never live it out. This sermon unpacks how Jesus chose the unlikely, trained them through everyday life, and calls us to do the same: be with Jesus, become like Jesus, and join Him in His mission.
-
Red Letters | Week 7 | The Way The Truth The Life
In a world that says all paths lead to God, Jesus makes an exclusive and life-changing claim: “I am the way, the truth, and the life.” This message unpacks why Jesus isn’t just one of many ways, but the only way to truly know God, find truth, and experience real life.
-
Red Letters | Week 6 | Don't Be Afraid
When life feels hopeless and fear takes over, Jesus’ words still speak: “Don’t be afraid; just believe.” Faith in who Jesus is—not just what He can do—gives us hope, peace, and courage in life’s most hopeless moments.
-
Red Letters | Week 5 | The Bread of Life
When Jesus fed the five thousand, the crowd wanted more than a meal — they wanted a king. But Jesus didn’t come just to fill their stomachs; He came to fill their souls. In this message, we look at what it really means for Jesus to be the Bread of Life — the true source, sustainer, and…
more -
Red Letters | Week 4 | Love Your Enemies
Jesus commands us to love our enemies, but what does that actually mean? In this message from Matthew 5:43–48, we explore how agape love calls us to respond to opposition—not with retaliation or passivity, but with the active, Christlike love that transforms hearts.
-
Red Letters | Week 3 | Love Your Neighbor
Love your neighbor… as yourself. Who is our neighbor and what is love?
-
Red Letters | Week 2 | Light of the World
Jesus calls His followers the salt of the earth and the light of the world, not as a goal to reach but as an identity to live from. Discover how living as salt preserves what is good and how shining as light reveals the hope of Christ in a dark world.
