This week we launch our new series Upside Down Kingdom: Finding Gratitude in the Psalms.Psalm 103 reminds us that gratitude is deeper than emotions and bigger than circumstances.When storms come—and they will—we have a choice:Fear or faith.Anxiety or worship.Forgetfulness or remembrance.The Kingdom of God produces people who choose gratitude before circumstances change.In this message we explore:• Holy gratitude• Remembering God’s faithfulness• Gratitude in suffering• Choosing the thunder• Trusting God in the stormJoin us every Sunday at Passion at 8:30am or 10:30am.If you are new to Passion Church you can fill out a connect card at: passionqc.church/infoYou can give your tithes and offerings on the Passion Church app, or at: passionqc.church/giveDownload our Passion Church app here: passionqc.church/app

In this final message of the “Holy Revealed” series through Isaiah, we look at what happens when a holy God truly changes a person. Isaiah’s encounter with God didn’t end with conviction or cleansing — it ended with surrender.“Here I am, Lord. Send me.”This message challenges us to stop living casually before God and step into full surrender, obedience, and dependence on Him.In this message:Holiness creates availabilityThere’s a difference between going and being sentReal surrender trusts God before knowing the outcomeGod measures success differently than cultureHoliness never stays containedScripture: Isaiah 6:8–13If this message encouraged you, share it with someone who needs hope and truth today.Connect with Passion Church: passionqc.church/info

What does it really mean to fear the Lord?In this message from our Holy Revealed series, Scott Schaefer teaches from Isaiah 8 and challenges us to recover a holy reverence for God. The fear of the Lord is not about running from God. It is about seeing His holiness clearly and responding with worship, trust, obedience, and surrender.In a world filled with fear, confusion, noise, and distractions, God calls His people to fear Him above everything else.Learn more about Passion Church: passionqc.churchGive online: passionqc.church/giveConnect with us: passionqc.church/info

God does not expose you to abandon you. He exposes what He wants to restore.In this message from Isaiah 6:6–7, we look at the moment when the burning coal touches Isaiah’s lips. Isaiah had confessed his uncleanness before a holy God, but God did not leave him undone. God moved toward him, cleansed him, and removed what Isaiah could never remove on his own.Holiness burns before it heals. But the fire of God is not meant to destroy you. It is meant to cleanse you.If you have been carrying shame, hiding sin, or resisting the place God wants to touch, this message is an invitation to stop running and let Him finish the work He started.Connect with Passion Church:passionqc.church/info

What happens when seeing God ruins your ability to pretend?In Isaiah 6, Isaiah stands before the holiness of God and his first response is not comparison, excuses, or self-improvement. His response is confession: “Woe is me, for I am ruined.”This message from our Holy Revealed series reminds us that the presence of God exposes what we often try to hide. We can pretend in front of people, minimize sin, compare ourselves to others, and act like everything is okay. But before a holy God, pretending ends.God does not expose us to shame us. He reveals what is true so real freedom, confession, repentance, and transformation can begin.Connect with Passion Church: https://passionqc.church/infoGive: http://www.passionqc.church/giveDownload the Passion Church App: https://passionqc.church/app

What happens when you don’t just talk about God, but actually encounter Him?In Week 1 of our new series, Holy Revealed, we walk through Isaiah 6:1–4 and see a powerful truth: God is not like us. He is holy, unmatched, and worthy of awe. In this message, we look at how God shakes what we rely on, corrects our understanding, and reveals His glory in a way that changes everything.This is more than a message about theology. It is a call to move beyond a comfortable version of God and return to the Holy One.If you want to connect with Passion Church, visit: passionqc.church/info

In this message, we close out our Return to Me series in Joel with a powerful reminder: the resurrection didn’t just fix what was broken, it changed everything.Walking through Joel 3:17–21, this sermon shows us that God’s goal was never just to repair ruined things. His desire has always been to dwell with His people again. Because of Jesus’ death and resurrection, a way was made for true nearness, restoration, and hope.If you’ve been living in survival mode, feeling far from God, or wondering whether real change is possible, this message is for you.Scripture: Joel 3:17–21If this message encouraged you, share it with someone who needs it and connect with us at PassionQC.church/info.

In this message, we continue our “Return to Me” series through the book of Joel and look at Joel 2:28–32, “The Promise of the Spirit.”God’s promise was never just restored circumstances. His promise was His Spirit poured out on His people. In this message, we see that when God pours out His Spirit, He awakens every generation, calls people to return, and invites us not just to feel something, but to respond.This sermon is a call to wake up, dream again, recover wonder, and respond to what God is doing right now.Thanks for joining us in this message from Pastor Nate.

This message is a powerful call to repentance, surrender, and spiritual recalibration.Too often we ask God to bless our plans instead of surrendering to His. In this sermon, we walk through what real repentance looks like, why grief over sin matters, and how Psalm 51 shows us the heart God responds to.In this message:Why repentance is still essentialThe 5 stages of true repentanceWhat Psalm 51 teaches us about confession and restorationWhy God was never lost — He found youHow a truly repentant heart respondsIf this message encouraged or challenged you, be sure to like, subscribe, and share it with someone who needs it.______________Thanks for joining us in this message from Scott.

In this message from Joel 2:18–27, we see a turning point in the book of Joel: when God’s people return to Him, He responds with compassion and restoration. This sermon explores how God restores what was lost, redeems wasted seasons, and shapes who we are becoming through every trial.God is not only interested in fixing circumstances. He is forming identity, restoring worship, renewing joy, and reminding His people that what looks devastated is never beyond redemption.If you’ve ever wondered whether God can redeem the time you lost, the mistakes you made, or the seasons you wasted, this message is for you.____________Thanks for joining us in this message from Pastor Nate.

In Joel 2:12–14, God calls His people to return—not with outward performance, but with inward surrender: “Tear your hearts, not just your clothes.” This message is the turning point of the “Return to Me” series—where God’s mercy meets our repentance. You’ll hear why behavior modification can’t replace heart transformation, why it’s not too late (“even now”), and what it looks like to choose obedience over optics. _________Thanks for joining us in this message from Pastor Nate.

In this final episode of our Going Deeper mini-season, Nate sits down with Jacob Cain to reflect on what really changed through the Practicing the Way discipleship class.They talk about:The discomfort of confessionWhy Sabbath was harder than expectedHow comparison quietly shapes our spiritual lifeThe difference between doing the way and practicing the wayThis conversation is honest, practical, and encouraging for anyone who wants to grow but feels stuck.Discipleship isn’t about instant transformation. It’s about daily practice.If you’re interested in joining the next round of Practicing the Way at Passion Church, reach out and let us know.Subscribe, share, and join us as we pursue a deeper walk with God.

In today’s message, Scott walks through Joel 2:1–11 and gives a clear, practical picture of what repentance really is—not just turning away, but grieving sin, turning to God, and moving forward without looking back.You’ll also hear a simple framework he calls the “Five C’s”: conviction, confession, contrition, cleansing, and consecration—so repentance doesn’t stay vague, it becomes actionable.If you’re ready to take a next step—whether that’s giving your life to Jesus or returning to Him with a clean heart—we’d love to help you get connected.__________Thanks for joining us in this message from Pastor Nate.

In this episode of Going Deeper, Nate sits down with Wendy to talk about her experience walking through the Practicing the Way discipleship class.Wendy shares honestly about her spiritual upbringing, her desire to grow closer to God, and the practices that challenged her most — from learning to be still, to embracing Sabbath, to building a daily rhythm with Scripture.What stands out most is how the class didn’t just add information — it shaped her heart. She talks about finding peace, contentment, and a renewed desire to live as an apprentice of Jesus in everyday life, including within her family relationships.If you’ve ever felt like there’s more to your walk with Christ than just attending church, this conversation will encourage you to take the next step.If you’re considering joining the next discipleship class, this is a great place to start.

In Joel 1:13–20, we see a hard but hopeful truth: grief is the right response when we finally recognize what sin has damaged in our lives, our homes, and our church.This message walks through five realities from the passage: grief begins with leadership, grief is meant to be public (not hidden), grief recognizes the Day of the Lord, grief refuses to minimize the loss, and true grief always ends in prayer. We also contrast worldly sorrow (shame that keeps you stuck) with godly grief (repentance that leads to freedom and restoration).If you’ve been numbing conviction, hiding in private shame, or excusing what God is confronting—this is your invitation to return.-------------------------------Thanks for joining us in this message from Pastor Nate.

In this episode of Going Deeper, Nate sits down with Gerard Woods to talk about the real impact of the recent discipleship class at Passion Church.Gerard shares honestly about the ups and downs of his walk with God, how vulnerability in community helped him grow, and the practices that reshaped his daily life — from prayer and Sabbath to simply being more aware of how Christ can work through everyday moments.This conversation isn’t about information. It’s about transformation. If you’ve ever wondered what discipleship actually looks like in real life, this episode gives you a front-row seat to the journey.If you’re considering joining the next discipleship class, this is a great place to start.

We’re starting a new series through the book of Joel called Return to Me—a series about repentance and restoration, not light and fluffy faith.Joel opens in a moment of national crisis: wave after wave of loss. But this isn’t just a disaster story—it’s a spiritual wake-up call. God uses disruption to expose what’s broken, not to punish His people, but to bring them back with wholehearted repentance.In this message, we talk about:Why repeated brokenness is often a pattern, not “just a bad week”How God exposes idols by removing what we lean onWhy brokenness affects our worship and disconnects us from offering it rightlyThe difference between shame and holy awarenessA simple prayer to begin real change: “Lord, show me what’s broken that I’ve been ignoring.”If you’re in a season where things feel stripped down, don’t numb it. Notice it. Let God speak to it. And take one honest step back toward Him this week-------------------------------Thanks for joining us in this message from Pastor Nate.

When God gives you vision, it’s exciting. But what if the real work happens in the waiting? In this message, we walk through Joshua 3:1–5 and learn why God often slows us down—not to frustrate us, but to form us.Israel is ready to cross into promise, yet God gives them formation instructions: follow His presence, keep the right perspective, and consecrate your heart. Because patience isn’t passive—it’s active trust. And when we rush, we can start forcing outcomes, manufacturing fruit, or moving faster than obedience allows.If you’ve been asking, “Why isn’t it happening yet?” this message is for you. Don’t rush answers. Release your timeline. Stay committed to the process—and let patience finish its work.-----------------------------------Thanks for joining us in this message from Pastor Nate Schaefer.

What does it really take to grow? In this message from our “Grow” series, we look at Romans 12:1–2 and the simple (but challenging) truth: growth requires sacrifice.This isn’t about “losing things” to prove a point. It’s about alignment—putting God first, not giving Him leftovers. We talk about what it means to be a living sacrifice, why transformation starts with a renewed mind, and how even good things can become competing loves that pull our attention away from Jesus.As we step into 21 Days of Prayer & Fasting, the question becomes personal: What needs to die so something in you can grow?-----------------------------If you are new to Passion you can fill out a connect card at: https://passionqc.church/infoYou can give your tithes and offerings on the Passion Church app or at: http://http://http://www.passionqc.church/giveDownload our Passion Church app here: https://passionqc.church/app
