Reclaimed Church

What do you do when heaven feels silent and the answer doesn’t come quickly? In Luke 18:1–8, Jesus tells a parable about persistent prayer—not to teach us that God is reluctant, but to remind us not to lose heart while we wait. This week, Pastor Korey shows how continual prayer is rooted in continual faith, and why trusting God’s character matters even in seasons of delay, suffering, and uncertainty.

Prayer isn’t meant to be complicated—it’s meant to be central. In Luke 11:1–10, Jesus teaches not just what to say, but how to approach God with the right heart, priorities, and persistence. This week, Pastor Korey walks through the pattern of prayer, reminding us that prayer isn’t about perfect words—it’s about a real relationship with a good Father who listens and responds.

Join Pastor Korey and Jeremy for Week Two of our Q&A series as they dive into questions from the church and explore real-life topics through a biblical lens. This conversation is honest, practical, and centered on God’s Word, helping you think deeper and grow in your faith.Questions gone over: Do miracles, signs, and wonders still happen today or were they for a specific time in history?Is hell a real, literal place and if so, is it eternal? And how does God judge people who have never heard the gospel, whether in the past or today?I’ve heard if you don’t tithe, God will take it out in medical bills. Is this true? How can I be a cheerful giver if there’s the threat of this?Why do people raise hands in a corporate worship setting? If I feel uncomfortable raising my hands or if I just don’t ever want to, can I still be worshipping the Lord from my heart?Why does God allow and even command so much violence in the Old Testament?In Matthew 7:17-18, how does that work? Specifically can a “bad tree” (someone spiritually dead) perform subjectively good deeds like helping the homeless even if they can not produce objectively good fruit in a spiritual sense? In the same way a “good tree”(someone spiritually alive) can still produce subjectively bad fruit, such as sin?From a biblical perspective can women be in church leadership? Can they be pastors?When is killing not considered sin? The Bible says “You shall not murder,” but God commands killing in some cases, and the government is said to bear the sword. So are soldiers sinning when they kill? And how does that fit with Jesus’ command to love your enemies?

Join Pastor Korey and Jeremy for Week One of our Q&A series as they dive into questions from the church and explore real-life topics through a biblical lens. This conversation is honest, practical, and centered on God’s Word, helping you think deeper and grow in your faith.Questions gone over:Can you explain the context behind 1 John 1:8. If we are in Christ we are no longer sinners. But people get hung up on this passage. Is it possible to live a sinless life after the first resurrection of our sinful lives?Where's the line between gossip and informing?What are we biblically justified in expecting when we pray?What are the most misused Bible verses?Is the evangelistic motivational catchphrase "MAKE HEAVEN CROWDED" biblically accurate?What was Paul's thorn?Is baptism required for salvation? How do explain verses that basically say that it is? Should a new or re-committed Christian be discipled for a period of time (ex: at least 1 year) before being baptized?Why does society tend to show empathy toward people born with physical or mental conditions, but often responds differently to those who identify as homosexual or transgender?Is it wrong to get a tattoo as a follower of Christ?Can you lose your salvation or were you never saved to begin with?Did Jesus ACTUALLY have to die for our sins? Why couldn't he have just forgave us? He set up the system for forgiveness so why choose this?  

If we’re saved by grace, what do we do about sin? In Romans 6, we’re reminded that we didn’t just get forgiven—we died with Christ and were raised to a new life. This week, Pastor Korey challenges us to live in that freedom, showing that grace doesn’t excuse sin, it breaks its power and calls us to something greater.

From the weight of the cross to the victory of the empty tomb, this is the moment everything changed. In Mark 15:21–16:16, we see the innocent King suffer, the barrier between God and man torn apart, and the grave defeated once and for all. This week, Pastor Korey reminds us that the resurrection isn’t just something to celebrate—it’s something to respond to, because Jesus didn’t just die for sin, He rose to prove it was finished.

At Passover, a guilty man walks free while the innocent Son of God is condemned in his place. In Mark 15:6–20, we see the crowd reject truth, choose a rebel, and unknowingly display the heart of the gospel—the great exchange. This week, Pastor Korey shows how Barabbas’ story is our story, and how Jesus willingly bore the curse so the guilty could go free.

As Jesus stands firm before rulers and accusations, Peter collapses under pressure just steps away. In Mark 14:66–15:5, we see the contrast between a failing disciple and a faithful King—one denying, the other declaring truth in silence. This week, Pastor Korey reminds us that following Jesus requires more than good intentions, and that even when we fail, the King who went to the cross is still reigning and accomplishing victory.

Throughout history, kingdoms rise and fall—but God promised a kingdom that would never end. In this message from Daniel, Jeremy Smith walks through Nebuchadnezzar’s dream and the prophetic promise of a kingdom not built by human hands. From the coming of Christ to the ongoing growth of the gospel, we see how God’s eternal kingdom has already broken into history and continues to expand across the world.

In the darkness of the garden, betrayal comes with a kiss and the Shepherd stands alone. In Mark 14:42–52, Judas delivers Jesus into the hands of those who should have recognized Him, the old system rejects its fulfillment, and the disciples scatter in fear. This week, Pastor Korey shows how none of it was accidental—every step fulfilled Scripture—and how the Good Shepherd remained faithful even when His sheep ran away.

In a quiet garden under crushing pressure, the fate of humanity hangs in the balance. In Mark 14:32–42, Jesus enters Gethsemane—the place of the oil press—where the Second Adam submits fully to the Father’s will and accepts the cup of judgment meant for us. This week, Pastor Korey walks through the agony, obedience, and love of Christ, showing that our redemption rests not on human strength, but on the faithful obedience of the Son.

This week, our youth pastor, Cody Mahurin, led us in facing the quiet faith crisis many believers carry. When leaders fall, influential people walk away from the faith, churches drift, and suffering hits home, belief can feel fragile.This exhortation wrestles with three honest questions: Jesus, are You who You say You are? Can You hear me? Are You really in control? Looking at multiple examples throughout scripture as well as the cross itself, we’re reminded that Jesus does not reject doubters—He meets them.You don’t need perfect faith.Just an honest prayer: “Lord, I believe—help my unbelief.”

Even the most confident disciple can fall, but Jesus’ grace runs deeper than our weakness. In Mark 14:27–31, Jesus predicts the scattering of His followers, promises restoration before failure ever happens, and shows that our hope rests not in our resolve, but in His finished work. This week, Pastor Korey reminds us that the Shepherd who was struck is the same Shepherd who gathers, restores, and leads His sheep by grace.

As Jesus moves closer to the cross, loyalty and betrayal are revealed side by side. In Mark 14:10–26, Judas chooses treachery, the disciples are confronted with honest self-examination, and Jesus establishes the New Covenant through His own body and blood. This week, Pastor Korey shows how the Passover finds its fulfillment in Christ—and how a finished sacrifice replaces the old system with a covenant grounded in grace, truth, and redemption.

As betrayal is being planned in secret, an act of costly devotion unfolds in the open. In Mark 14:1–9, a woman pours out everything she has on Jesus—and her worship is criticized as wasteful until Jesus declares it beautiful and eternally significant. This week, Pastor Korey shows how true worship flows from recognizing Christ’s worth, and why a Savior who willingly gives Himself to death is worthy of total, unreserved devotion.

Jesus shifts the focus from when things would happen to how His followers should live in light of them. In Mark 13:32–37, He teaches that while the exact moment was intentionally withheld, the call to readiness was made clear—stay alert, stay faithful, and stay at your post. This week, Pastor Korey reminds us that the heart of Jesus’ warning isn’t fear or speculation, but steady obedience and watchful devotion.

Jesus didn’t speak in riddles—He spoke with clarity and authority. In Mark 13:27–31, He explains how God’s people would be gathered, how the signs of judgment would be recognized, and why His words could be trusted without exception. This week, Pastor Korey shows how Jesus set a real time frame for His prophecy, how history confirmed it, and why the enduring power of His word gives us unshakable confidence in everything He promised.

When Jesus spoke of the Son of Man “coming in the clouds,” He wasn’t predicting the end of the physical universe—He was declaring His victory, authority, and judgment. In Mark 13:24–27, Jesus uses the language of the prophets to describe the fall of Jerusalem and the public vindication of His reign as King. This week, Pastor Korey shows how history confirmed Jesus’ words and why that confirmation gives us unshakable confidence in everything He promised.

Christmas reminds us that hope has a name and light has entered the world. This special message reflects on the meaning of the season and the reason we celebrate. No matter where you are in life, the story of Christmas still speaks.

Jesus gave His disciples a clear warning before Jerusalem’s darkest hour. In Mark 13:14–23, He describes the coming desolation of the city, the urgency to flee, and the severe judgment that would follow covenant unfaithfulness—yet He also reveals His compassion for the suffering and His faithfulness in protecting His people. This week, Pastor Korey shows how these words were fulfilled in history and why Jesus can be trusted when He warns, promises, and saves.

Jesus warned His disciples about a coming crisis—and every part of it unfolded within their generation. In Mark 13:10–14, He speaks of the gospel spreading through the world, the Spirit empowering believers under persecution, and the “abomination of desolation” that would signal Jerusalem’s downfall. This week, Pastor Korey walks us through how these prophecies were fulfilled in the first century, and how Jesus’ words still call His followers to trust, endurance, and obedience today.

As the disciples marvel at the Temple, Jesus delivers a prophecy that will reshape their entire understanding of the age they’re living in. In Mark 13:1–9, He warns of deception, unrest, persecution, and upheaval—not to terrify His followers, but to prepare them for the events leading up to Jerusalem’s fall in A.D. 70. This week, Pastor Korey shows how every word Jesus spoke came to pass, proving that He rules history, keeps His promises, and equips His people to stand strong no matter what comes.

The disciples admired the beauty of the Temple, but Jesus saw something entirely different—a system God had already left behind. In Mark 13:1, we learn that the Old Covenant structures were temporary shadows pointing to something far greater: Christ Himself as the true Temple, and His people as the dwelling place of God’s Spirit. This week, Pastor Korey walks us through the stunning reality that God is no longer found in man-made buildings but in the living Temple of His Church, where His glory now rests and His Kingdom advances.

Jesus exposes the difference between religious showmanship and genuine devotion. In Mark 12:38–44, He warns against leaders who seek honor while exploiting the vulnerable, and He highlights a widow whose small offering reveals both her faith and the corruption of the system around her. This week, Pastor Korey challenges us to recognize false spirituality, protect the vulnerable, and remember that God sees the heart—not the performance.

Jesus asks a question that turns everyone’s expectations upside down: Who is the Messiah really? In Mark 12:35–37, He shows that the Messiah is not just David’s son—but David’s Lord, the risen King who reigns with full authority now. This week, Pastor Korey reminds us that Jesus is not a political figure or a distant teacher, but the divine King who sits at the Father’s right hand and calls for our worship and allegiance.

When asked which commandment matters most, Jesus gives an answer that reshapes all of life. In Mark 12:28–34, He shows that everything God desires flows from two loves—loving Him fully and loving others genuinely. This week, Pastor Korey reminds us that the Kingdom isn’t about rules or rituals, but about a relationship that starts with devotion to God and overflows in compassion toward people.

The Sadducees came to test Jesus—but ended up revealing their own blindness to the truth. In Mark 12:18–27, Jesus confronts their unbelief and reveals that resurrection life isn’t just a continuation of this one, but a complete transformation. This week, Pastor Korey reminds us that our God is not the God of the dead, but of the living—and because Christ rose, every grave that belongs to Him will one day be empty.

Jesus’ critics thought they could trap Him with a question about loyalty, but He exposed their hypocrisy with one sentence that still echoes today. In Mark 12:13–17, Jesus reminds us that while we have responsibilities in this world, our ultimate allegiance belongs to God alone. This week, Pastor Korey shows how true disciples honor authority without compromising worship—and how the image we bear determines the life we give.

Jesus tells a story that hits close to home for the religious leaders—and for us. In Mark 12:1–12, the Parable of the Tenants exposes the danger of rejecting God’s messengers and trying to claim what belongs to Him. This week, Pastor Korey shows how God’s mercy is relentless, His justice is certain, and His vineyard now belongs to those who love and serve His Son.

Faith that moves mountains isn’t about control—it’s about trust. In Mark 11:22–33, Jesus teaches that real faith aligns with God’s will, forgives freely, and stands firm under His authority even when everything familiar is shaking. This week, Pastor Korey reminds us that sometimes God has to bring one mountain down to raise something greater that can never be shaken.

Jesus doesn’t just cleanse the temple—He calls out empty religion at its roots. In Mark 11:15–21, we see Him flip tables, quote the prophets, and pronounce judgment on a system that looked alive but was fruitless. This week, Pastor Korey reminds us that God’s house is meant to be a house of prayer—and now, through Christ, we are His temple, called to live holy and bear real fruit.

Jesus isn’t just looking for leaves—He’s looking for fruit. In Mark 11:11–14, we see a fig tree that looked alive but was empty, a picture of Israel’s outward religion without true righteousness. This week, Pastor Korey reminds us that real life in Christ comes from abiding in the Vine, not just looking spiritual on the outside, and calls us to examine what fruit God is growing in us today.

Evil isn’t defeated by fighting fire with fire—it’s conquered by living out radical, Spirit-filled goodness. In Romans 12:9–21, Paul calls us to real love, passionate service, patient hope, and a commitment to blessing even those who wrong us. This week, Pastor Korey reminds us that the cross looked like defeat, but Jesus showed us the way to overcome evil—with good.

Jesus rides into Jerusalem not with military might, but with humility and purpose. In Mark 11:1–10, prophecy is fulfilled, crowds cry Hosanna, and the true Kingdom is revealed—not political power, but spiritual redemption. This week, Pastor Korey invites us to lay down what we cling to and follow the King who saves through sacrifice.

Who is this Jesus who stops for the cry of one overlooked man and turns it into a testimony of faith? In Mark 10:46–52, Blind Bartimaeus sees what others miss—Jesus as the merciful Son of David—and his desperate plea becomes a life-changing encounter. This week, Pastor Korey shows us that real faith doesn’t just ask for mercy; it leaves the old life behind and follows the Savior on the road.

Who is this Jesus who teaches that greatness doesn’t come from thrones, but from serving? In Mark 10:35–45, James and John ask for glory, but Jesus points them to a cup of suffering before the crown of victory. This week, Pastor Korey reminds us that in God’s Kingdom, the path to true greatness always runs through humility, sacrifice, and the cross.

What if church was more than a building, more than a Sunday service, more than a slogan? In When You’re Here, You’re Family?, Pastor Jeremy reminds us that the Church is meant to be a spiritual family—rooted in love, unity, and devotion to one another. This week we’ll explore what Scripture says about why we gather, how the early church lived it out, and how our love for each other is meant to show the world who Jesus really is.

Be strong in grace, stay focused, and don’t give up. In 2 Timothy 2:1–7, Paul calls Timothy—and us—to live like a faithful soldier, a disciplined athlete, and a hardworking farmer. This week, our guest Pastor Eddie unpacks how God’s grace gives us the strength to endure, obey, and persevere until the harvest comes.

Who is this Jesus who asks not for a portion of our lives, but for everything? In Mark 10:17–34, He challenges the rich young ruler’s priorities, shocks the disciples, and promises unimaginable reward to those who surrender all. This week, we’re leaning into the truth that following Jesus might cost us everything—but He always gives back more than we gave up.

Who is this Jesus who welcomes children with open arms and challenges the rich with hard truth? In Mark 10:13–22, we see the contrast between childlike faith and clinging to control. This week, we’re exploring what it really means to receive the Kingdom—and why sometimes the thing we won’t let go of is the very thing keeping us from Jesus.

Who is this Jesus who refuses to play political games and instead points us back to God’s heart? In Mark 10:1–12, Jesus speaks into a loaded question about divorce—not to shame, but to restore God’s original design for marriage. This week, we unpack a hard but hopeful word about covenant, commitment, and the kind of love that doesn’t give up when things get hard. “Divorce isn’t for people who fail—it’s for people who refuse to turn around.”

Who is this Jesus who redefines greatness, challenges pride, and calls us to radical surrender? In Mark 9:33–50, He flips our ideas of power, warns us about the danger of sin, and reminds us that true influence starts with humility. This week, we’re talking about cutting off what pulls us from Jesus—and staying salty in a world that’s losing its flavor.

Who is this Jesus who walks straight from glory into chaos—and still brings healing, hope, and truth? In Mark 9:14–32, we see raw faith, honest struggle, and the power of prayer that moves mountains. This week, Pastor Korey unpacks what it means to trust Jesus not just on the mountaintop, but right in the middle of the mess.

Who is this Jesus who shines with glory on a mountain and stands beside Moses and Elijah? In Mark 9:1–13, we witness the Transfiguration—a moment of awe, mystery, and divine confirmation that Jesus is the beloved Son. This week, we explore what it means to see Jesus for who He truly is and why we can trust Him, even when the mountaintop fades.

In this message, Allie Wilkinson reminds us that lasting spiritual fruit doesn’t come from trying harder—it comes from staying rooted in Christ. Drawing from Galatians 5, she challenges us to stop striving for outward change and start pursuing a deeper relationship with the Holy Spirit. When we water the root, the fruit will follow.

Who is this Jesus who asks the most important question we’ll ever answer—“Who do you say I am?” In Mark 8:27–38, we see a bold confession, a shocking rebuke, and a call to take up our cross and follow. This week, Pastor Korey unpacks what it means to truly know Jesus—and why the right answer changes everything.

Who is this Messiah who heals a blind man in stages, predicts His death, and calls us to take up our cross? In Mark 8, Jesus reveals who He truly is—and it’s not always what people expect. This week, we’re wrestling with identity, revelation, and the cost of truly following Him.

Jesus is not here to fix your habits — He’s here to change your heart. Join us as we talk Pharisees, miracles, and how Jesus flips religion upside down to make room at the table for everyone.

Who is this Jesus? In Mark 6, we see a carpenter rejected in His hometown, a Shepherd who feeds thousands, and the God who walks on water—and still, people struggle to recognize Him. Join us this week as we dive into a chapter full of faith, doubt, power, and the question that changes everything.

What if the places you avoid are the very places Jesus is already working? Jesus has authority over darkness, disease, and even death—and He uses it to restore what’s been lost. In this powerful look at Mark 5, we see Jesus pursue the broken, confront evil, and speak life where others see only the end.
