Wayside Chapel Sermons

The “easy yoke” Jesus offers isn’t another burden to carry. Pastor Jason continues our Become series by looking at the gift of spiritual disciplines, not as ways to perform for God, but as rhythms that create space for the Spirit to work in us. As we learn to walk in the way of Jesus, we discover the abundant life He invites us into. COME DRINK Jesus invites us to come to Him with our thirst and r...

Have you ever looked at your life and thought, “I really thought I’d be farther along by now”? Pastor Jason continues our Become series by looking at Galatians 6:7-10 and why becoming more like Jesus is often slower and messier than we expect. Join us as we talk about what it looks like to keep taking faithful steps, trust God when we can’t see what He’s doing, and not give up when change feels sl...

Why do we hide the parts of ourselves we don’t want others to see? Pastor Jason continues our Become series by looking at Romans 7:15-25 and the false self we create to protect what’s underneath and the freedom Jesus offers us to come out of hiding. Join us as we discover what it looks like to stop managing what everyone sees and let Jesus meet us where we really are. We’re glad you’re worshiping...

There can be a gap between what we believe about Jesus and who we are actually becoming. We can know the right things, believe the gospel, and still find ourselves stuck in the same patterns, struggles, and habits. And when we recognize that gap, our instinct is often to try to fix ourselves, whether by waiting for God to suddenly change us, working harder to earn change, or relying on our own wil...

The gospel doesn’t just change our relationship with God; it changes our relationship with one another. In Christ, we’ve been welcomed into a family we had no claim to and brought near by His grace. At the cross, Jesus tore down the walls that once separated us and made us one. And because we have been welcomed so freely, we become people who make room for others. We don’t rebuild walls of hostili...

As Pastor Jason concludes our series, we’re turning to Revelation 21:1–5 and looking ahead to the everlasting hope God has promised us. Throughout this series, we’ve seen that even in a world broken by sin, God has always had a plan for redemption and restoration. One day, He will make all things new, and we will dwell with Him in a new heaven and a new earth, no longer marred by sin. What a glori...

In this message, Pastor Jason traces God’s plan of redemption from Eden to Christ, showing how every promise points to the God who refuses to abandon His broken world. Through Ephesians 2, we see the heart of the gospel: though we were dead in sin... BUT GOD.....rich in mercy and great in love, made us alive in Christ and is making us new. Because we have a God who won't abandon us in our brokenne...

Pastor Jason continues our series by looking at Genesis 3, and how sin broke the world God created and why we still feel the effects of that brokenness today. Yet, even in the midst of it all, God is at work, pursuing His people and pointing toward the rescue that would come through Jesus.

Pastor Jason begins our four-part series, From Eden to Everlasting, by walking through Genesis 1 and the world as God created it. Together, we’ll see what it means to be made in His image, created for relationship, and given purpose to cultivate what He has placed before us.

As we conclude our summer series, Pastor Jason challenges us to move beyond excuses and embrace the life God has called us to live. Through Proverbs 6, we're reminded that God's grace empowers us to faithfully pursue the work He has prepared for us.

What does it look like to be our brother's keeper? Pastor Cameron continues our summer series through Proverbs, exploring God's heart for justice, mercy, and caring for the vulnerable. Together, we'll be challenged to move beyond indifference and reflect the love of Christ in practical, everyday ways.

What are you allowing to shape your heart? This week, Pastor Steven Villacin continues our Proverbs series, exploring Proverbs 4:20–27 and God's wisdom for living with purpose and integrity.

How do we become people of wisdom? Join us as we continue our summer series and discover what Proverbs teaches about the importance of listening, learning, and receiving godly counsel. Together, we'll see how God shapes our lives through a humble, teachable heart.

We all have habits and blind spots that can affect the people around us—often without even realizing it. This week, we’ll see what Proverbs has to say about the behaviors that can quietly push others away and where those patterns come from. More importantly, we’ll discover that real change doesn’t come from trying harder, but from being fully known and deeply loved by God!

We're glad you're continuing with us in our Wisdom for Everyday Life series! This week, Pastor Stephen walks us through Proverbs 3:5-8, as we discover that true wisdom let's go of control and trusts completely in our God who will never fail.

We have more access to information than ever before, yet many of us still feel anxious, confused, and overwhelmed. In this message from Proverbs 1, Pastor Steven Villacin shows us how to discern the voices we listen to and why God’s wisdom is the path to true life.

We all need wisdom. Not just information or answers, but the kind of wisdom that helps us follow God faithfully in everyday life. In this first message of our Wisdom for Everyday Life series, Pastor Cameron traces the search for wisdom back to the Garden of Eden and reveals that true wisdom isn't something we take for ourselves—it's something God generously gives. Ultimately, wisdom leads us to Je...

We all carry labels—some given to us by others, some we've given ourselves. But in Philemon 1–7, we're reminded that the gospel speaks a better word, giving us a new identity, a new family, and a new purpose in Christ. Because when Jesus gets the final word on who you are, everything changes.

As we close out the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus leaves us with a clear invitation and warning: only one foundation will stand when the storms come. In this message from Matthew 7:24–29, Pastor Cameron reminds that following Jesus is more than hearing His words—it’s building our lives on them. Because in the end, only His Kingdom will remain. 

Pastor Jason walks us through Jesus' call for those who follow Him to walk the narrow path and be on the lookout for those who say they belong to Him, but whose life doesn't bear fruit.

Today, we’re in Matthew 7:7–12, where Jesus invites us to ask, seek, and knock, and reminds us just how good our Father is. We’re grateful you’re worshiping with us today.

This week, we take a closer look at what Jesus actually meant in Matthew 7:1–6 and how His words challenge both our tendency to condemn others and ignore our own need for grace. Jesus doesn’t call us to turn off discernment, but He does call us to stop playing God. He invites us to start with our own hearts, walk in humility, and approach others with compassion shaped by the mercy we’ve received....

This week we celebrated Easter and continued our sermon series by looking at Matthew 6:25-34. He is risen and His power conquered sin and death, so we can rest in knowing that He is able to care for our every need.

We’re continuing our Sermon on the Mount series as we look at Matthew 6:19–24 and hear from Pastor Cameron. In this passage, Jesus invites us to take an honest look at what we’re really living for—what we treasure, what we trust, and who we ultimately serve.
