Are you allowing the true conditions around you to conquer the truth over your life?In this powerful message we dive into John 8:31-32 and look at the difference between facts and foundational spiritual truths. From the 12 spies standing on the edge of the Promised Land to David facing Goliath, scripture shows us that what we see in front of us may be factually true, whether it's fear, sickness, financial struggle, or a daunting past, but it is never bigger than the Truth of God’s word over us.But to fully step into God's promises and find true freedom, we must first be willing to face the truth of exactly where we are.Watch to discover how to stop letting your circumstances dictate your identity and start walking in the freedom that only the Truth can provide.

In this powerful message, Pastor Josh Ipock dives deep into the profound Biblical truth: In order to be full, we must be empty.Drawing from the miraculous story of the widow and the oil, Pastor Josh challenges us to look at our own capacity.

Posture your heart and get ready to be filled!

He explores the state of the world before creation, a place that was desolate, dark, and empty, and draws a striking parallel to the spiritual state of our world today.Many of us feel that same emptiness and lack of direction in our own lives. We often wander through the darkness trying to manufacture our own light, only to find ourselves still searching for meaning. Pastor Josh reveals that true purpose isn't something we create; it is something that happens when we invite God’s Spirit to move over the face of our lives.

History remembers two basins of water from the life of Jesus. One was held by Pontius Pilate, who washed his hands to distance himself from a "difficult" situation and an innocent man. The other was held by Jesus Himself, who knelt to wash the feet of His disciples, even the one He knew would betray Him.In this message, Pastor Josh Ipock explores how the world often treats us like Pilate did, writing us off when we become "too much." But Jesus offers a radical alternative: a love that serves, a grace that stays, and a Savior who will never wash His hands of you.

In a world that often tells us to hold onto our grudges, how do we choose a different path? Today, Rev.

Pharaoh repeatedly told Moses that the Israelites could go worship God, but every "yes" came with a hidden condition... The fine print.From "stay in the land" to "leave your kids behind," Pharaoh’s goal was to give the illusion of freedom while maintaining total control.

What do you do when you’re in a valley with no water, no way out, and no visible miracle?In 2 Kings 3, three kings find themselves surrounded by dryness, defeat, and desperation. The prophet Elisha delivers an unusual word from the Lord: “Make this valley full of ditches.” Before the rain. Before the water. Before the breakthrough.Sometimes God asks us to prepare in faith before we ever see the promise.

Everyone had a label for David.His father saw a delivery boy.His brothers saw a distraction.Saul saw a youth.Goliath saw a stick.But while the world tried to define David by labels, God had already named him by purpose.In this message, Labeled, But Not Limited, we look at the story of David and Goliath and discover how labels—spoken by people, placed by our past, or even embraced by ourselves—do not have the power to limit what God has called us to do.Before David ever defeated the giant, he first rejected the labels.If you’ve ever felt boxed in, underestimated, or defined by something other than God’s voice, this message is for you.

Before the people of Israel rebuilt the temple, they rebuilt the altar.Before the work of their hands, there was the posture of their hearts.In Ezra 3, we see a powerful reminder: before they built, they bowed.They didn’t start with plans, tools, or structures, they started with worship.This message is a reminder for our church today. God is the One who builds His church, not us. Our call is not to strive, rush, or perform, but to bow in surrender, reverence, and obedience as He works.As God builds, we bow.

When Solomon declared, “There is nothing new under the sun,” he was speaking from human wisdom and earthly perspective. But what Solomon could not see was what God was about to reveal.

What Solomon saw as repetitive and hopeless, God transformed through Christ—making all things new.
