In But Later You Will Understand, Guest Preacher Michael Perkins speaks to the difficult moments when God’s work doesn’t make sense and we’re left asking, “Why did it have to happen this way?” Drawing from Jesus’ words to Peter—“You do not realize now what I am doing, but later you will understand”—he reminds us that our inability to understand what God is doing does not mean God has stopped worki...

In Praying with a Burden, Pastor Brandon shows us that when God gives us a burden, the work begins in prayer. Before Nehemiah ever rebuilt Jerusalem’s walls, he spent months seeking God, allowing the Lord to prepare his heart for the assignment ahead. Through Nehemiah’s prayer, we learn to look up to the greatness of God, bow down in humility, hold on to His promises, and ask big, making bold requ...

In the opening message of LOCKED IN, Pastor Brandon shows how easily God’s people can drift from God, His work, and His people when we lose focus on what matters most. Nehemiah’s story begins with a man whose heart is broken over the condition of Jerusalem and who cares enough to seek God about it. Before Nehemiah ever develops a vision or rebuilds a wall, he carries a burden. A God-given burden i...

In The Ministry of Intercession, Pastor Brandon reminds us that prayer isn’t just personal—it’s a ministry we give to one another. James 5:13-18 shows us that there are moments when we need to pray for ourselves, moments when we need to call others to pray for us, and moments when God calls us to stand in prayer for someone else. Intercession is the privilege of approaching God on behalf of others...

In Keep & Rescue Me, God, Pastor Brandon closes out the Lord’s Prayer by showing us how prayer prepares us for the spiritual battles we face every day. Because we are vulnerable and the enemy is real, we need God to keep us from falling into sin and rescue us from the evil one. Rather than waiting until temptation comes, Jesus teaches us to pray ourselves ready—recognizing where we are vulnera...

In Search Me, God, Pastor Brandon challenges us to invite God to search our hearts and reveal the sin we may not see. When God brings sin into the light, our response is to confess it, receive His forgiveness, and turn from it. Jesus also teaches us that the forgiveness we receive should shape the forgiveness we extend. We don’t forgive to earn God’s grace; we forgive because we’ve received it. As...

In Just Ask, Pastor Brandon unpacks Jesus’ prayer, “Give us today our daily bread,” showing that spiritual maturity isn’t greater independence from God—it’s greater dependence on God. Because God is our Father, we can boldly ask Him for everything we need and trust Him completely with the answer. Whether we know exactly what we need, struggle to find the words, or are waiting on an answer, Jesus i...

As we continue the series called When We Prayer, Pastor Brandon in Part 2 of the sermon called Eyes on God, walks through the Lord’s Prayer as a pattern for keeping our hearts focused on God. Jesus teaches us that when we pray when need to remember who God is, represent His name, and seek His Kingdom while surrendering to His will. At the heart of prayer are two realities: God is worthy, and we ar...

In the opening message of the When We Pray series, Pastor Brandon teaches that prayer begins by fixing our eyes on God because His eyes are on us. Walking through Jesus' teaching in Matthew 6, he contrasts three audiences in prayer: praying to impress people, praying to an unknown god through empty repetition, and praying to our heavenly Father who sees, knows, and welcomes His children. Pastor Br...

In this message, Guest Preacher Michael challenges listeners with a life-changing question: Do you truly know Jesus, or do you simply know about Him? Through examples such as the demons, the Pharisees, the fortune-telling slave girl, and the seven sons of Sceva, he demonstrates that knowledge about Jesus is not the same as having a personal relationship with Him. Contrasting these examples with th...

In this message, Guest Preacher Alex Sezar explores what it means to find lasting contentment in Christ rather than in changing circumstances. Teaching from Philippians 4:10–13, he identifies three "contentment killers"—complaining, comparison, and control—and contrasts them with biblical habits that cultivate a heart of peace and trust in God. Alex encourages believers to practice gratitude, pred...

In this message, Guest Preacher Eric Anderson reminds us that God often does His deepest work in the seasons we least understand. Walking through 2 Corinthians 4, he shows how hard seasons reveal our fragility and apply real pressure, but pressure does not mean destruction, and confusion does not mean God has abandoned us. Even when life knocks us down, God still has the final word. Our weakness b...

In this message, Guest Preacher Chris Thompson teaches from the parable of the Good Samaritan, reminding believers that Christ calls His church to move toward people in their suffering with compassion. True compassion goes beyond pity or sympathy—it takes action by showing up, offering practical care, and walking alongside those who are hurting. Chris encourages the church to overcome fear, discom...

In this message, Guest Preacher Eric Patrick challenges believers to embrace a lifestyle of Christlike service. Preaching from 1 Peter 4:9–11, he reminds the church that true service flows from a heart of love, compassion, and generosity, meeting the needs of others without seeking recognition or reward. Eric highlights four biblical reasons to serve in the local church: Serving displays joyful ge...

In this message, Pastor Brandon unpacks the life-changing truth of what it means to be adopted into God's family through Christ. Walking through Romans 8:12–17, he shows that believers are led, loved, blessed, and formed as sons and daughters of God. Rather than living as spiritual orphans driven by fear and performance, Christians are invited to experience the intimacy of crying, "Abba, Father,"...

In Part 5 of the Spiritual Gifts series, Pastor Brandon explores the gifts of distinguishing between spirits, tongues, and interpretation of tongues. He explains how the gift of discernment helps believers identify whether a spiritual influence originates from God, human flesh, or demonic deception, enabling the church to respond wisely and biblically. The message also examines the biblical purpos...

In this message, Guest Preacher Pastor Ayo explores the battle that takes place in the mind and shows how true peace is not found in changing circumstances but in experiencing transformation through the word of God. Drawing from Romans 12:1–2, he teaches that peace in your life begins with peace in your mind. He first warns believers about the danger of mind traps—patterns of thinking that pull us...

In Part 4 of The Gift and the Giver, Pastor Brandon explores the gifts of miracles and prophecy, showing how the Holy Spirit makes God's presence and power known through His people. He explains that miracles are extraordinary works of God that point people to His glory, while prophecy is the Spirit-empowered ability to communicate something God has revealed for the purpose of strengthening, encour...

In this message, Pastor Brandon continues The Gift and The Giver series by exploring revelatory and power gifts in 1 Corinthians 12, emphasizing that spiritual gifts are not meant to be idolized but stewarded with humility.

In this message, Pastor Brandon makes a clear, Scripture-driven case that the gifts of the Spirit—such as prophecy, healing, and tongues—continue in the life of the church today. He carefully walks through common cessationist arguments and emphasizes that the New Testament consistently commands believers to desire and practice spiritual gifts, while also testing and submitting them to Scripture. T...
