Swords and Thrones: When The Enemy Knocks
Following Jesus doesn’t always make life easier. In fact, sometimes it gets harder. In this message, we explore the story of Hezekiah, who faithfully led his people back to God only to face an overwhelming enemy, and the similar moment when Jesus, affirmed by the Father, was led into temptation. In both cases, the real battle wasn’t just external. It was about trust. The enemy’s strategy hasn’t changed: to detach us from trusting God and replace that trust with something…
Swords and Thrones: Good to God
Could it be true that the greatest threat to your faith, and even the Church, isn’t what you lose, but what you refuse to let go of? In this message, we explore the story of King Hezekiah and a surprising object: a bronze snake that once pointed people to God but eventually replaced him. Through the story and the words of Jesus, we uncover how good things can quietly become ultimate things, and how what we trust most shapes our…
Mother’s Day – Faith That Lives On
This message explores how the most influence in our lives often comes through quiet, ordinary faithfulness rather than visible achievement. Drawing from 2 Timothy 1:3-7, it highlights how Timothy’s faith was first lived out by his grandmother and mother, reminding us that faith can be modeled but not borrowed forever. It must become personal. At the same time, the message exposes the danger of building our identity on being needed. In contrast, Jesus offers a better identity: we are loved…
Thessalonians, Pt 2, Faith That Gets To Work
In this final message from 2 Thessalonians, Paul confronts a church in which some have become so fixated on Jesus’ return that they’ve stopped carrying their share, stopped serving, and started meddling. But this message doesn’t just explain an ancient problem; it exposes a modern one. If you’ve ever checked out, coasted, burned out, or quietly resented carrying what others won’t, you’ll find yourself in this message. Through Paul, God calls the disengaged to reengage, the exhausted to stop trying…
Thessalonians, Pt 2: Keep Standing, Keep Believing
Have you ever noticed that knowing how the story ends affects how you experience the middle? The Christian story begins with God’s faithful love and ends with sharing in Christ’s glory, and those two truths reshape how believers endure the struggles in between. Paul encourages the Thessalonian church, and us, to stand firm, hold fast to the gospel, and pray with God’s kingdom first and our needs second. Life’s painful “middles” can feel overwhelming, but they are not the end…
Thessalonians, Pt 2: Don’t Fall For The Hype
What do you do when fear starts writing stories in your head? In 2 Thessalonians 2, Paul writes to a church panicking over a rumor that Jesus already returned and, somehow, they missed it. Instead of feeding their anxiety with charts and predictions, Paul steadies them: don’t be quickly alarmed and don’t be easily deceived. Because when you’re afraid, you’re easier to deceive. This message unpacks how fear hijacks our thinking, why deception spreads so easily through “prophecy, word of…
Thessalonians, Pt 2: When Faith Feels Fragile
We confront the painful question, “If God is just, why is the world is so unjust?” Our justified outrage at evil assumes there’s real right and wrong, not just relative opinions. Christianity doesn’t claim God stayed distant, but that God stepped into suffering in Jesus and promises a day when Christ will return and set everything right. Until then, God’s delay isn’t apathy but mercy because the moment God brings perfect justice, it won’t just expose “their” sin, it will…
Holy Week Service
A time of worship and remembrance as we enter the darkness of Holy Week through Scripture, song, and communion. This service invites us to linger in the shadow of Christ’s suffering and prepare our hearts for the hope of the resurrection.
Spiritual Renaissance “The Last Supper”: Betrayal and Grace
What if being close to Jesus isn’t the same as trusting him? In this message, we look closely at Leonardo da Vinici’s The Last Supper and the moment when grace and betrayal share the same table. Through the story of Judas, we’re confronted with an uncomfortable but necessary truth: knowing about Jesus, behaving like a Christian, and even staying near religious people and places don’t equate to knowing God. This message invites both long- time churchgoers and spiritual seekers to…
