Pastor Lucas Chance: All four Gospels record Jesus’ entry into Jerusalem and highlight it as a decisive unveiling of the promised King. He does not ride in on a war horse but on a donkey. He comes in humility, not conquest. The crowd shouts “Hosanna” and calls Him the Son of David, a title loaded with national expectation. They longed for political liberation rather than spiritual salvation. This...

On today's episode Pastor Lucas Chance takes us to the end of John 4, where we meet a royal official who comes to Jesus in desperation. His son is dying, and he begs for help. Jesus does not go with him. He simply speaks. “Go. Your son will live.” The man believes. He walks away with no sign or proof, only the word of Jesus. The man believed the word that Jesus spoke to him and went on his way...

Reaping the Harvest: Embracing Jesus' Urgency in His Mission - Tyler Alspaugh Continuing our time in John 4, Jesus challenges His disciples to have the same fervour and drive that He had—to go forth and do the work of the Kingdom. His mission was clear, and He calls us to see with the same urgency. Look, I tell you, lift up your eyes, and see that the fields are white for harvest.  – John 4:35 Tak...

Today is Communion Sunday , and we take time to reflect on the cross—the ultimate demonstration of the forgiveness of sins. Without it, our debt remains unpaid. But we are redeemed through Christ’s sacrifice. 1 Corinthians 11:28 reminds us:  Everyone ought to examine themselves before they eat of the bread and drink from the cup.  We are called to remember the forgiveness we have received and to e...

In  John 4 , we will see how Jesus began to cross social and religious boundary lines in His early ministry. He strategically breaks through to someone initially not open to the gospel, meeting them where they are and leading them toward truth. The Lord is a Master Gardener, showing us how He sows gospel seeds in our hearts, preparing the soil long before we even recognize our need for Him. As you...

On today's sermon, Pastor Colin Weeks continues in  John 3:31-36 , where John reminds us of a crucial truth: The one who comes from above is above all.  – John 3:31 Jesus is not like us—He is utterly different, set apart, and above all things. There is only  one hope  in which we can trust: the Gospel. All else will fail us. Trusting in who God is means embracing all of His attributes—not only the...

This week  we’re continuing through  John 3:22-36 , where John the Baptist gives us a simple but powerful truth:  He must become greater; I must become less.  – John 3:30 John wasn’t looking for attention, recognition, or control. He understood his role—to point people to Jesus and step back. It’s a posture of humility that continues to challenge us today. Will we lay down ourselves—our pride, our...

In this episode Pastor Lucas has us reading  John 3:9-21  as he shares the reality that for those in Christ, the verdict is already final— not guilty . Whoever believes in Him is not condemned.  – John 3:18 Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.  – Romans 8:1 God’s justice demands righteousness but His love made a way. Through Christ, the penalty of sin is paid...

Pastor Lucas draws us into John Chapter 3 and Nicodemus' big question about being "born again". There's a complex interplay between belief and unbelief. Faith and doubt can coexist as we see in biblical examples, such as Peter walking on water. While navigating our struggles with faith we need to recognize that our doubt can lead to a spiritual awakening and deeper connection with God.

Pastor Colin Weeks asks What Are Men For?” at our annual Men’s Retreat.  Piggy-backing on the weekend theme of “The 5 Relationships Every Man Needs” Pastor Colin introduces us to “The 5 Aspects of a Man”.

While the men of Westside Family Fellowship met with God at Gavin Lake for the annual Men's Retreat, Ashley Chance asks: What Is Sin? Sin doesn’t happen by accident—it follows a pattern. From the very beginning in the Garden of Eden, we see how desires corrupted by deception lead to disobedience and sin. But while sin leads to death, Christ leads to freedom. We are not without hope. Reflect on...

On today's episode Pastor Lucas brings our focus to Ephesians 2 and the powerful truth that by grace, we have been saved. Through Jesus’ sacrifice on the cross, the wall of separation has been torn down, bringing us into relationship with God and uniting us as one family in Christ. Let’s remember that we have been brought to God near by His grace and walk in the unity He has provided to  us.

On today's episode Pastor Lucas looks at  John 2:23–25 , and reminds that Jesus knows what’s in every person. He sees the good, the bad, and even our hidden thoughts. Yet, even though He knows us completely, we often hold back and don’t surrender every part of our lives—especially our private thoughts and struggles. Are we willing to let Jesus into every area of our hearts, knowing He already...

In this episode, we dive into John 2:13-25, where Jesus clears the temple—a powerful moment of righteous zeal for His Father’s house. But His work of cleansing didn’t end there. Today, we are His temple, and He continues His work of refining and purifying our hearts. What tables in your life does Jesus want to flip over? What are you holding onto that He’s asking you to release, even if it takes a...

Pastor Lucas Chance returns to our journey through the Gospel of John. We examine Jesus's first miracle turning water into wine at the wedding in Cana in John chapter 2. One question that arises from this story is what are we pouring into our "jars" or lives? Is it good, pure, and praiseworthy?

Pastor Colin Weeks kicks off the final message in our Christmas series with the bold question, "What kind of year do you want to have in 2025?".

It was a crazy fun time as Pastor Lucas held a good old fashioned "sword drill" to bring home the message that we are all children of the King!

Pastor Lucas Chance takes us along on Joseph and Mary's journey to Bethelem, asking when the journey actually started and showing us that God was preparing them much earlier than the day they left . In the same way God is working behind the scenes in our lives to prepare us for what is yet to come - our "Bethlehem".

Pastor Lucas continues our "Behold "Christmas series with a message focused on the faithful response to God's call, using the parable of the ten virgins from Matthew 25:1-13. He also emphasized how Zechariah, Mary, and Joseph responded to God's call, highlighting their obedience and faith despite personal doubts and challenges.

Pastor Colin Weeks brings us into the Christmas sesason with his sermon "From Dirt to Deity: The Glorious Unfolding of God's Redemptive Story".

Pastor Lucas Chance continues to unravel chapter 1 of the Book of John by finishing the sentence " When You Seek God ..."

Pastor Colin Weeks challenges us to capture what John says about Jesus when he calls him "The Lamb of God".

Tyler Alspaugh takes a look at Jonah's story and what it means for us.

Pastor Lucas Chance transitions from John's "introduction" to the main story with John 1:19-28. The question moves from "Who Is Jesus?" to "Who Is John?"

Pastor Colin Weeks picks up where we left off a few weeks ago in the book of John.
