Hardwired with Jeff Wickwire

As Christians, it’s easy to have moments of ignoring the Lord. Whether we’re facing a challenge that seems too great, or relapsing to past failures, oftentimes we try to hide our problems from God. In today’s message, Pastor Jeff wants you to know that it doesn’t matter what you’re going through, God’s mercies will always set you free. You are chosen by God and set apart to accept Him into your he...

In your faith journey, do you ever hear God’s voice? When you hear a distinct calling from God, do you drop everything and follow Him? Today in his message, Pastor Jeff wants you to know that simply put when God calls you to something, He expects you to follow after His divine plans. No matter how much you know or how successful you feel like your own decisions are, they’ll never satisfy. Step int...

Often times we get so caught up in “doing the right things” that we forget what it really means to be set free. In our quest for bettering ourselves, we hyper-focus on work and forget why we’re even doing it. Today, Pastor Jeff reminds us that Jesus came to sacrifice himself in our place so that we could be set free. We no longer have to be stuck in our old ways or follow any rules to get where we...

Following the law has a way of tricking us into feeling like we are closer to something or someone than we really are. When we get into routines and follow the rules, it makes us feel part of something. In today’s message, Pastor Jeff explains that Jesus dying on the cross allows you to draw closer to Him. Instead of following rules and abiding by strict codes to feel a connection to Christ, He al...

As Christians, when we read the Old Testament, many of the rules and rituals don’t seem to be all that important to our everyday lives. In today’s message, Pastor Jeff explains that we need to take the new covenant, brought before us by Jesus dying on the cross, as seriously as those in the Bible took the old one. No, we don’t need to sacrifice animals or be born into a specific clan to be a pries...

In your walk with Jesus, do you ever spend time contemplating Heaven? We all know where we’re headed because of God’s perfect grace, but do we really live a life seeking His promises?

You’ll never get to the closeness that you desire withou...

In our world today, many people are turned off from religion simply because of the idea of rules. It’s a common misconception that going to church and trusting in Jesus means that you’re autonomy will be lost. Today, Pastor Jeff wants you to know that this couldn’t be further from the truth. Surrendering your heart to Jesus will only serve to liberate you from the pain of this world. Entering into...

In your walk with Jesus, do you take Him at His word? When He calls you to something and you can feel it, do you trust in His divine plan? Or do you think you know better?

No matter how much you may know or how improbable God’s plan may seem, He will always have your best...

In our world today, we are taught only to trust ourselves. Even when there are people in our life who we trust, it’s easy to feel a need to see proof before we open ourselves up.

The only constant in this life is...

We hear so many different teachers, speakers, and orators in so many different media in our current culture. Because of this, we often find ourselves getting sucked into things we want to hear as opposed to what we need to hear.

Are you struggling with your identity? Are you stuck in a rut and don’t know what to do to turn things around? In today’s message, Pastor Jeff wants you to know that like Saul in the Bible, God wants to make you into a new creation. If you’re yearning for real change in your life, the only way is through Him.

When you su...

What does it mean to be a “good person?” Is it good deeds every once and a while that make us feel better about ourselves? or is it following a higher calling? Today, Pastor Jeff wants you to know that God has a purpose and a plan already set into motion for your life. Instead of doing so-called “good deeds” to make you feel like you’re balancing out the bad things in your life, let God take contr...

It’s important to move forward and keep working to be better, but, the more you remind yourself of what...

In your faith journey, do you realize that you’re in a covenant with God? We know that when we let Jesus into our hearts we’re bonded with Him, but do we truly treat it as a covenant?

He sacrificed His son so that you might be saved and you need to live every day as a sacrifice to Him. Don’t l...

We like to think that we always know what’s best for ourselves in life. We enjoy making our own decisions and when things don’t go our way we try to blame anyone but ourselves. In today’s message, Pastor Jeff explains how Jonah does this very thing and even still, God looks out for him. Jonah directly disobeys God and it’s not until he starts following God’s plan that his life begins to flourish a...

Some of us are born with beautiful voices and some of us just don’t have the same gifting. Singing aloud for others to hear can be daunting and even if we have the pipes, we still choose to keep our mouths shut. Today, Pastor Jeff wants you to know that God loves it when His children sing His praises. It doesn’t matter what you’re singing voice sounds like or if you have stage fright, God wants to...

As Christians, we all have sin in our life that presents itself time and time again. Often times when it comes back to bite us, we choose to hide from God. In today’s message, Pastor Jeff wants you to know that no matter where you’re at in your sin or how many times you’ve asked for God’s deliverance from it, He wants you to call upon His name. You don’t have to dust yourself off or try to fix thi...

Seek after the heart of the Lord a...

Have you ever done something you wished you hadn’t done and wasted valuable time because of it? We all make mistakes and in those mistakes, we lose time that we will never get back.

When you let Him take control, you begin a life that’s prosperou...

As Christians, when life is going well it’s easy to rest on our laurels and completely forget about God. We get hyper-focused on what we’re doing for ourselves and push God away.

No matter how secure or self-assured you feel in what you’re doing, you’ll never get to where you want to be without...
