The Symbols and Structure of Revelation | Revelation 6

How to Pray: Yielding to God’s Will
What does Jesus mean when he teaches us to pray, “Do not bring us into temptation”? In the final teaching of our How to Pray series, we explore this difficult line from the Lord’s Prayer and discover that it is ultimately a prayer of surrender: “Not my will, but yours be done.” Prayer is not…

How to Pray: Asking God for What You Need
What do we do when we pray and God doesn’t answer—or doesn’t answer in the way or timing we hoped? In Luke 11, Jesus teaches us not only to ask God for what we need, but to let prayer reshape what we want. We learn to pray, “Your kingdom come,” while also bringing God our ordinary, everyday…

How to Pray When You Don't Know How | Learning the Prayer Jesus Taught | How to Pray
Prayer can feel intimidating. What do you say? Does God really hear you? What if nobody ever taught you how to pray? In the opening message of our How to Pray series, we begin in Luke 11, where Jesus' disciples ask the same question many of us still ask today: "Lord, teach us to pray." Together...
-
A Table Big Enough for Everyone | House Church | Romans 16
What shape is the church? Many of us instinctively picture a building, a steeple, or rows of people facing a stage. But the New Testament paints a different picture. In Romans 16, a chapter often treated like the end credits of Paul's letter, we discover that the earliest church gathered around a...

Have you ever looked at your life, compared it to everyone else's, and wondered, "If God is good, why doesn't it feel like He's good to me?" Psalm 73 gives voice to one of the deepest struggles of faith. Asaph watches the wicked prosper while he suffers, leaving him discouraged, envious, and...

Life is full of mountains—fear, anxiety, loss, uncertainty, and challenges that remind us of our limitations.

Salvation is Healing | Mark 5:21-43
In Mark 5:21–43, Jesus heals a bleeding woman and raises a little girl—but these aren’t just miracle stories. They reveal something deeper: salvation is healing. The same word the New Testament uses for “saved” also means to heal, restore, and make whole. In this message, we explore: Why we all...

“My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?” In this powerful Good Friday Tenebrae message, we reflect on one of the most haunting statements Jesus made on the cross—and what it reveals about sin, death, and the depth of His sacrifice. Sin isn’t harmless. It isn’t manageable. Scripture shows us…

Sin is Rebellion | Isaiah 64:1-9
In this message from Isaiah 64, we explore the Bible’s powerful and often uncomfortable truth: sin is rebellion against God. But this passage also reveals something surprising—why God’s anger toward sin is actually a sign of His love, not a contradiction of it. As Israel cries out for justice…

Sin is a Stain | Isaiah 1:2-20
Sin isn’t just something we do—it’s something that stains us. In this message from Isaiah 1, we explore the Bible’s deep and honest diagnosis of the human condition: Sin can’t be hidden Sin can’t be removed by our effort Sin can’t be covered up by religion But God doesn’t leave us there. He…

Sin is an Addiction | Jeremiah 2:1-32
In Jeremiah 2, the prophet gives one of the Bible’s most powerful diagnoses of the human heart: sin is like an addiction. Instead of drinking from the fountain of living water, we dig cracked cisterns that cannot satisfy. We exchange God for lesser loves, deny the depth of our problem, and...

Sin is a Beast | Genesis 4:1-16
In Genesis 4, we discover that sin isn’t just something we do. It’s a power. It crouches. It waits. It desires to rule us. Through the contrast between Cain and Abel, we uncover: The seriousness of sin — its predatory nature and destructive power The subtlety of sin — how comparison, pride,...
-
Breaking the Cycle of Sin & Shame | Genesis 2:25 - 3:13
In this sermon from Genesis 2:25–3:13, we explore the surprising first effect of sin in the Bible: shame. Before violence. Before injustice. Before death. There was hiding. Why does sin immediately lead Adam and Eve to cover themselves? Why do we still hide today? And why is it so hard to even…
more -
Sin is Denial | Genesis 3:1-19
What’s really wrong with the world? In Genesis 3, we see the first human rebellion—but more importantly, we see how sin actually works. It doesn’t show up with horns and a pitchfork. It begins with subtle denial: Denying God’s authority Questioning God’s goodness Forgetting our purpose And yet,...

Formational Discipleship | Wingfoot DNA | Mark 3:7-19
"Discipleship" is often imagined as Christianity 2.0. But in Jesus' way, to be a disciple is to be a student of Jesus' life and teachings, being formed to be like him over a lifetime of apprenticeship under him. This requires a paradigm shift in how we imagine discipleship in the church and a...
-
Incarnational Mission | Wingfoot DNA | John 20:19-23

Worship That Leads To Mercy & Justice | Mary: The First Disciple | Luke 1:46-56

-
Blessed To Be A Blessing | Mary: The First Disciple | Luke 1:39-45

-
Bearing the Life of Jesus | Mary: The First Disciple | Luke 1:26-38
Discipleship is a journey of being formed by the life of Jesus. Just as Mary bears the life of Jesus within her until he comes out of her, so too are we called to bear the life of Jesus until his life comes out of us. But what does that look like and how does that happen?
-
The Virgin Birth & The New Creation | Mary: The First Disciple | Luke 1:26-38

Laodicea: Dependence in An Age of Self-Reliance | Revelation 3:17-22 | Ancient/Future Church | Jon Ashley | November 23, 2025
