theCause Church

Let's begin the year not with hype or temporary motivation, but with resolve—a settled decision made before pressure, pain, or temptation comes. In 2026, pastor Kevin challenged us with Paul’s declaration in 1 Corinthians 2:2. This year will not be sustained by emotion, but by a firm resolve to pursue holiness, obedience, and faithfulness no matter the cost.

Christmas reveals a hidden glory: the baby in the manger is not a harmless figure to admire, but a King whose throne is concealed in humility. In the final week of Hidden Glory, pastor Kevin shows us how we are often comfortable with a Jesus who doesn’t interrupt our lives, yet the real Jesus calls us to surrender, follow, and submit to His reign. This Christmas, we’re invited not just to celebrat...

Christmas reveals a different kind of power—one not displayed through dominance or control, but through God humbly stepping into our weakness in the incarnation of Jesus. In week 2 of Hidden Glory, pastor Kevin reminds us that heaven came low so we could come close, showing that God’s strength is most clearly revealed in our weakness.

Christmas reveals that God often hides His greatest glory in humility, simplicity, and places we wouldn’t expect—like a manger. In week 1 of Hidden Glory pastor Kevin showed us that instead of only searching for God in the spectacular, we are called to look for Him in ordinary moments, embrace humility, and trust His hidden work in our lives.

True contentment and strength come not from our circumstances but from Christ alone. In the 4th and final week of Unshakeable Joy, pastor Kevin reminds us that when we are rooted in Christ the result is a life marked by peace, generosity, and unshakable joy—because Jesus is always enough.

Philippians 3 teaches that real, unshakable joy isn’t found in our achievements, identity, or past, but in knowing Christ and becoming like Him. In week 3 of Unshakeable Joy pastor Kevin shows that joy begins where self-reliance ends. When we remember our true citizenship is in heaven, we can live with a joy the world can’t give and circumstances can’t take away.

Joy flourishes when we live in unity, serve others selflessly, and obey God with a humble heart. In week 2 of Unshakeable Joy pastor Kevin reminds us that Philippians 2 teaches that true joy flows from humility — mirroring the mindset and attitude of Christ.

True joy isn’t based on our circumstances but on God’s purpose working through us. In week 1 of Unshakable Joy pastor Kevin reminds us that Joy comes from partnering in the gospel, maintaining the right perspective in suffering, and living with Christ as our ultimate purpose.

Faith is choosing to believe even when you don't see. Pastor Abner reminds us that faith moves forward despite the circumstances.

This message, “The Image of the Invisible God,” calls us to fix our eyes on Jesus—the visible image of the invisible God—so that truly seeing Him transforms how we live. What we look at shapes how we see, and how we see determines how we live; therefore, contemplation of Christ—crucified, risen, and enthroned—reshapes our perspective and hope. As we behold Him, we are conformed to His image, learn...

This message calls the church to repentance and holiness, reminding believers that while we are justified by faith in Christ. Pastor Kevin reminds us that true revival begins not with emotion but with repentance.

God didn’t create us to stay stuck; He created us for movement and purpose. In this message Pastor Kevin reminds us, breakthrough often comes through ordinary obedience and bold reaching.

We are not called to run programs, but to build disciples. On this special vision Sunday service Pastor Kevin challenged us to reorder our priorities by seeking Him first, putting in the work He provides resources for, and building His dwelling, both in our lives and in His church.

Much of the Christian walk is bridging the gap between what we think about ourselves and what God says about us. On our 13th Year Anniversary Pastor Marco Debarros of New Life South Coast reminds us that we are Living Stones in Christ and there are mandates we must adhere to as believers.

Evil and suffering exist because of humanity’s misuse of free will. In response to the week's tragic events, pastor Kevin reminds us that as disciples, we are called not to despair but to reflect Christ. Ultimately, our anchor is not in politics or human systems but in Jesus.

God meets us in mercy even when we are messy, but over time we can drift, picking up idols and losing the fire of our first love. In week 13 of Rediscovering The Holy Spirit, Pastor Kevin reminds us that returning to Bethel means burying those idols, repenting, and putting Jesus first again; and, when we return, God doesn’t meet us with condemnation but with renewed grace, identity, and intimacy.

God still speaks today. Whether through His Word, people, circumstances, and the Spirit; and, the question is whether we are truly listening. In week 12 of Rediscovering the Holy Spirit pastor Kevin challenges us not just to pray for Him to speak, but to commit in advance.

Suffering is not God’s design but the result of sin and the enemy’s work. In week 11 of Rediscovering the Holy Spirit Pastor Kevin teaches how the Holy Spirit lives within us, transforming suffering into endurance, character, and hope, assuring us that our pain is never wasted.

There is a tension in Jesus’ command to “Go, but wait”—calling us to mission, but only in the Spirit’s power. In week 10 of Rediscovering the Holy Spirit, Pastor Kevin warns against the temptation to run in our own strength.

This message calls believers to move beyond merely operating in the gifts of the Holy Spirit and allow Him to produce the fruit of Christlike character. It warns against lukewarm Christianity, compromise, and idolatry, urging full surrender and holiness over performance and power. The sermon ends with a call to repentance, letting the Spirit’s refining fire burn away impurities so we reflect Jesus...

Healing is a powerful, biblical sign that points beyond itself to the deeper promise of salvation in Jesus—a foretaste of the resurrection life we await. In week 8 of Rediscovering the Holy Spirit Pastor Kevin reminds us that while God does heal, often miraculously, we live in the tension of the “already” and “not yet,” where not all healing comes in the way or timing we expect.

Prophecy is speaking on behalf of God to someone else others. In week 7 of Rediscovering the Holy Spirit pastor Kevin emphasized that imagination can be a tool God uses rather than a barrier, ultimately, prophecy is a spiritual gift meant to strengthen, encourage, and comfort the church, not a technique to master.

Prophecy is not reserved for a select few but is meant for all Spirit-filled believers as a means of intimacy with God, a revelation of Jesus, and encouragement for others. In week 6 of Rediscovering the Holy Spirit pastor Kevin reminds us that it requires risk, practice, and obedience to learn His voice.

True discernment requires training in God’s presence before bold action, and God whispers not to be evasive, but to be close. In week 5 of Rediscovering the Holy Spirit, Pastor Kevin teaches on the gift and practice of discernment.

The Holy Spirit is not a concept to be analyzed but a Person to be encountered. In week 4 of Rediscovering the Holy Spirit pastor Kevin teaches how we are called to move beyond words and into a demonstration of God’s power.
