Mosaic Church - Winter Garden

Joel shared the story of how he and his wife, Lauren, discovered that their daughter Keller had Rett syndrome, and the hope they’ve found in the truth of Psalm 23—that they have a Good Shepherd who draws near in the valleys of death and promises to make all things new.

As we close the book of 2 Timothy, we are reminded of what a life of faith truly looks like. Paul walked in obedience through pain, persecution, and deep heartache, yet again and again, he found the grace of Jesus to be sufficient. As he finishes his final letter, Paul passes the torch to Timothy—and ultimately to us—calling us to live today with a deep dependence on the grace of Jesus, trusting t...

This Easter, we celebrate that Jesus is the perfect Lamb of God who came to take away the sins of the world. His blood cleanses us from sin and frees us from death! But why would God do this? John 3:16 reminds us that love is the reason Jesus went to the cross. And this love is not vague or distant—it is deeply personal and intimately specific for you, and has been true since before the foundation...

Sin must be fully acknowledged and felt to appreciate the infinite magnitude and effectiveness of Jesus’ sacrifice. This Good Friday, we surrender burdens, symbolized by writing and releasing them, and receiving communion to affirm forgiveness, renewal of identity, and restoration of intimacy with God.

In this passage, we might be tempted to rush through it or even question its place in our Bibles. Yet, within these words, we gain insight into what it means to follow Jesus with maturity. Paul reveals his tiredness, loneliness, and unwavering reliance on the sufficiency of the gospel. He illustrates how hardship and joy often coexist on the journey of following Jesus.

In this passage, Paul shares with Timothy that his time on earth is nearing its end. Like Jesus, his life is being poured out before God. Yet, he finds hope in the gospel. Paul has completed God’s call on his life and has held onto Christ as Christ held onto him. Now, he passes the torch to Timothy, saying, “It’s your turn!” May we, like Timothy, remember that our righteousness is not of our own m...

Truth can start to feel repetitive, and when we grow bored with it we become vulnerable to chasing newer, more alluring ideas that slowly pull us away from God’s Word. The Apostle Paul calls for a clear-headed, enduring commitment to sound teaching, a constant rehearsing of the gospel, and life together in community so we can stay awake, avoid drifting into myths, and persevere in our calling over...

After months of preparation to serve believers in Bethlehem, Renaut and a team from our church were unexpectedly diverted to Athens just an hour before landing in Tel Aviv. In that moment, the experience became a sovereign reminder that living by faith isn’t about having perfect plans, but about trusting God when those plans change. The life of faith doesn’t mean avoiding risk or running from hard...

As 2 Timothy 4 opens, Paul passes the baton to Timothy, charging him before God and Christ Jesus to preach the Word. He is to correct, rebuke, and encourage with complete patience, trusting that God will bring the fruit in His time. This charge does not rest on Timothy’s ability, but on the power of the gospel. And it reminds us that our approval comes not from our performance, but from the finish...

Renaut reminds us that even when we cannot see it, God is at work, quietly accomplishing His purposes. Rather than chasing “big” moments, we were invited to see the power of ordinary faithfulness: parents discipling their children, believers loving their neighbors, generations walking with Jesus. Over time, that steady faith multiplies beyond what we can imagine. In light of this, we are called no...

We live with a restless ache, a vacuum in the soul that keeps pulling in achievement, applause, pleasure, and control, hoping something will finally make us feel whole. Like chasing smoke, we grasp at what looks substantial but dissolves in our hands. Our culture sings about this dissatisfaction—never finding what we’re looking for, discovering that castles are built on sand. Whether through succe...

Paul reminds Timothy that the false teachers and leaders among him will continue to go from bad to worse. In light of that reality, Paul urges Timothy to remain rooted in what he has learned from the Scriptures—not so that he would simply know more about the Bible or have a relationship with a book, but so that he would be shaped into the image of Christ and come to deeply know the God who has rev...

The journey of faith is often marked by struggle and suffering, yet it is precisely in these hardships that our true identity in Christ is revealed and deepened. Following Jesus is not a path of ease but one of steadfast perseverance, shaped by the example of Paul, who endured rejection, persecution, and even near death, yet was sustained and rescued by the Lord through it all. Faith is more than...

Paul’s warning to Timothy continues, emphasizing the presence of individuals within his church who are preying on vulnerable women through false teaching. The church’s call is to protect the vulnerable and strive to avoid becoming vulnerable ourselves. This is achieved by uniting around the words of God, safeguarding those in need, and actively combating the darkness within our midst.

As the people of God who live in hopeful expectation of Jesus’ return, Scripture tells us that we are already living in the last days. In this passage, Paul warns Timothy that as the end draws nearer, the world will be increasingly marked by distorted loves—self-centeredness, pride, and a rejection of God’s authority. Paul’s instruction to “avoid such people” is not a call to withdraw from mission...

God is stirring in our world, our city, and among our people. As the wind of the Spirit moves in our midst, we desire to be a people who respond and follow what God is already doing among us. In 2026, we are committing to be a church that intentionally makes room so that one more life may come to know the eternal salvation found in King Jesus—to the glory of God the Father.

Our Triune God is a God who sends and comes. The Father sends the Son to seek the lost and bring them home. The Son sends the Spirit to awaken life in spiritually dead hearts. And now, as recipients of this great rescue, we are sent into the world, sowing seeds as we share Jesus, so that one more life might be found and rescued.

Humanity was made for harmony with God, one another, and creation, but sin entered and brought death, estrangement, and a world riddled with hostility. Through the ages God preserved a people and set in place the sacrificial system to show both the costliness of sin and our need for a deeper rescue. That rescue arrived in Jesus. He did not merely teach; He reconciled. He unlocked access to God tha...

In O Holy Night, we see the arrival of Jesus in beauty and clarity, and throughout the Gospels, whenever Jesus arrives, everything changes: worth is restored, the unclean are made clean, and death is turned into life. This is what happens when Jesus comes—a weary world rejoices! At Christmas, we remember His first arrival as we also look forward to His second coming, the ultimate end of all death,...

We turned to Luke 2 and listened with fresh ears to the angelic announcement: “good news of great joy.” A Child is born who is Savior, Christ, and Lord—three titles that reframe everything. Savior because we truly need rescuing; Christ because He’s the promised, long-anticipated King whose kingdom won’t end; Lord because this Savior is God Himself. Veiled in flesh, the Godhead appeared. The Word b...

Christmas matters because it anchors us in the real story of a Savior who actually entered history. As we sing through the season, Come Thou Long Expected Jesus helps us bring our hunger, our hopes, and our honest longings to the One who fulfills them. The human heart understands anticipation—like a child waiting for gifts—and that small ache points to a far greater, older ache: humanity’s long wa...

Peter blesses God for new birth into a living hope through Jesus’ resurrection, and I celebrate that this isn’t theory—Jesus is alive, present, and calls us to participate with Him. We don’t pursue holiness to earn salvation; salvation is secured. We pursue holiness so His kingdom breaks into this dark world through our lives, so others see Jesus and we taste eternal life now. That’s the backdrop...

In this passage, Paul reminds us that in God’s great house, we are called to be vessels set apart for honorable use. By turning from what is unworthy and pursuing a life shaped by holiness, we become instruments God delights to use. Through His grace, and empowered by His Spirit, we are prepared for every good work and equipped to reflect the character and beauty of Jesus.

God gave us His first and best in Jesus Christ. So as those who have experienced the fearless generosity of God, we are now full and freed to give our first and best, knowing that generosity guards our hearts in a world that wars to entangle our hearts in trivial, worldly pursuits.

Jesus reveals the heart of the Father who relentlessly pursues the one who is lost. In His grace, God doesn’t settle for ninety-nine found—He goes after the one more, restoring what was broken and rejoicing over every soul brought home. And now, as His redeemed people, we share His heart and join His mission to seek and save the lost.
