In Jonah 4, Elder Rob Sena explores Jonah’s anger over God’s mercy toward Nineveh and reveals how the story exposes our own hearts. As God teaches Jonah through the plant, the worm, and the wind, we’re reminded that He is perfectly just and perfectly merciful. Ultimately, this passage points us to Jesus Christ, who reveals the Father and offers forgiveness and hope through the gospel.

Sunday July 3rd, 2026 by Elder Rob Sena. When God called Jonah a second time, Jonah obeyed and an entire city was confronted with God's mercy. In this message from Jonah 3, we see the power of God's Word, the necessity of repentance, and the incredible compassion of a God who delights in showing mercy to those who turn to Him. As Nineveh believed God's warning and humbled themselves before Him, we are reminded that no one is beyond God's grace and that genuine faith always leads to a transformed life. Join us as we explore this remarkable account of God's patience, justice, and mercy, and what it means for us today.

When Jonah finds himself at rock bottom, he discovers that God's grace reaches even there. Join us as Elder Rob Sena walks through Jonah 1:17–2:10 and the powerful truth that salvation belongs to the Lord.

God sent a storm to pursue Jonah, but the storm wasn't just about judgment, it was about grace. In this message, Elder Rob Sena explores how spiritual apathy, disobedience, and a compromised witness can impact those around us, while highlighting God's relentless pursuit of His people.

What happens when God calls you somewhere you don't want to go? In Jonah 1:1–4, we see a prophet who knew God's voice but chose to run in the opposite direction. Through Jonah's story, Elder Rob Sena explores God's will, God's love, and the reality that we can never outrun His presence. Learn how obedience impacts not only our own lives but also the lives of those around us, and discover why God's correction is a sign of His love. Join us as we examine the opening verses of Jonah and consider the question we all must answer: Are you running to God, or running from Him?

In Colossians 4:2–18, Elder Rob Sena challenges us to live out our faith through four simple but powerful actions: pray, walk, speak, and send. This message explores the importance of persistent prayer, living a life that reflects Christ, speaking with grace and truth, and faithfully serving in the work God has called us to. As Paul closes his letter to the Colossians, we're reminded that following Jesus is more than belief, it's a daily lifestyle that impacts how we relate to God, others, and the mission of the gospel.

What does it mean to be devoted to prayer? In this sermon from Romans 12:9–13, Barnabas Olsen encourages believers to pray persistently, pray intentionally, and trust that God works through the prayers of His people.

Join us as Elder Rob Sena teaches through Colossians 3:18–4:1 and what it means to build our homes and lives on the solid foundation of God’s Word. Looking at marriage, parenting, work, and daily living through a biblical lens, this message points us back to Christ as our foundation and reminds us that the goal is not perfection, but direction. Are you building on the Rock or on the sand?

Elder Rob Sena teaches through Colossians 3:1-17, encouraging believers to set their minds on Christ, put off the old self and pursue spiritual maturity for the glory of God.

This message unpacks Epistle to the Colossians 2:11-15, highlighting the believer's spiritual transformation, the theological meaning of baptism as union with Christ, and the cross where our record of debt is canceled and Christ triumphs over every power. 

A message from Colossians 1:9–29 reminding us that we already have everything we need in the gospel. As we grow in knowing God, we learn our identity in Christ, walk in His will, and rest in the finished work of Jesus, no added striving, just “Jesus + nothing."

In Colossians 1:1–8, Paul calls the church back to what matters most—Jesus. When faith gets mixed with distractions, rules, and false ideas, the Gospel brings us back to truth. This episode is a reminder that you are saved by grace, called with purpose, and meant to live out your faith boldly. Refocus, stand firm in Christ, and let your life bear fruit.

In this powerful message from Elder Rob Sena, we walk through John 20:1–10 and 1 Corinthians 15:12–28 to uncover the life-changing truth of the resurrection. What if the resurrection never happened? Paul makes it clear, without it, our faith would be empty, truth would be meaningless, and hope would be lost. But because Jesus rose from the grave, everything changes. Sin no longer has the final say, evil does not win, and we are no longer bound, we have the power to choose a new life through Him. This message reminds us that the Bible is not just a story, but one unified truth pointing to Jesus, from beginning to resurrection. And through His victory, we are given not only salvation, but freedom, purpose, and lasting hope. Listen in and be encouraged by the truth that the work is finished—and new life is available to all who believe.

Nehemiah 13 is a wake-up call to confront compromise, restore what's been neglected and return to God with intentionality.

Elder Rob Sena teaches through Book of Nehemiah chapter 10, comparing a military oath to the kind of wholehearted devotion God calls His people to. As the Israelites renew their covenant, we’re reminded that true commitment to God touches every area of life, our relationships, our worship, and even how we steward what He provides.

In this message from Nehemiah 9, Elder Rob Sena walks us through Israel’s cycle of rebellion, repentance, and restoration. We’re reminded that God is faithful even when we are not, that His mercies are new every morning, and that the greatest blessing He gives us is Himself. When life is chaotic we cling to the cross—but when it’s calm, we tend to drift. This sermon calls us back to humility, confession, and full surrender to Jesus, trusting that God is always ready to pardon and restore.

The walls were rebuilt, but the people still needed spiritual renewal. In Nehemiah 8, the Word of God is read clearly and explained carefully so the people can understand it. In this message, Elder Rob Sena walks us through how true renewal begins when we move beyond simply hearing Scripture and grow in truly understanding it.

When the walls were complete in Nehemiah 7, the focus shifted from construction to consecration. This sermon calls us to move past comfort, enter God’s presence through worship, and allow Him to rebuild our hearts, not just our circumstances.
