|| ABOUT THIS MESSAGE || Yesterday, Pastor Jerry introduced a new 4-week series, GOD FIRST, teaching us how to practically prioritize God's place in our lives. When we put God first, it will show up in how we love our neighbors, how we treat our enemies and how we steward our resources. This message challenged us to honestly assess God's place in our real life, not just our church life, an...

|| ABOUT THIS MESSAGE || Pastor Jerry shared a relaxed and honest Christmas Eve message about how the season rarely goes as planned.

|| ABOUT THIS MESSAGE || Pastor Emmanuel closed out the BLESS series yesterday by talking about the most intimidating step, sharing your story. He reminded us that we are not the heroes of our testimonies, Jesus is, and that God meets us in our flaws, not after we fix them. The message pushed back on the idea that we have to be perfect or “know enough” before talking about God. Instead, Pastor Emm...

|| ABOUT THIS MESSAGE || Yesterday, Pastor Jerry reminded us that following Jesus should actually make us different, and that difference is shown through love. He walked through Jesus’ words to James and John to show how easily we chase status instead of choosing service. Jesus defined true greatness as serving others, not holding power or position. We were challenged to take off the crown, put on...

|| ABOUT THIS MESSAGE || In week 3 of our BLESS series, Pastor David explored how the “E” in the BLESS acronym represents “Eat” and is a powerful way for us to cultivate community around the Gospel. For Jesus, sharing a meal was far more than food, it was a place where He performed miracles, extended forgiveness, modeled humility, and restored relationships. His message revealed how God used the t...

|| ABOUT THIS MESSAGE || Yesterday, Pastor Jerry continued our 5-week Christmas Series, BLESS, based on the book by Dave and Jon Ferguson. He focused on the second letter of the acronym, "L", which stands for listening! Actively listening to those around us, especially those who don't know Jesus, is a powerful way to communicate that we love and care for them.  || ABOUT BEACH CHURCH...

|| ABOUT THIS MESSAGE || This week, Pastor Jerry took us to Luke 9 as we wrestled with a simple but challenging question: are you a fan or a follower of Jesus? It’s easy to cheer from the stands, but Jesus calls us to get in the game and live on mission. Through real stories and honest reflection, we were reminded that following Jesus isn’t about comfort or convenience, it’s about full devotion. N...

|| ABOUT THIS MESSAGE || Yesterday Pastor Jerry brought an awesome message in our Made for More series all about Release. He reminded us that God didn’t make us to just settle or sit on the sidelines. Every one of us has a purpose that He set in place long before we even knew it.

|| ABOUT THIS MESSAGE || Yesterday, we got to hear from Pastor David as he reminded us that raising people up in faith is more than helping them stay afloat at the surface. Using the story of the Samaritan woman in John 4, he showed how raising others up today means doing it with intentionality, accountability, patience, humility, and a willingness to go deeper ourselves. That’s where the snorkel...

|| ABOUT THIS MESSAGE || This Sunday we continued in Week 2 of our Made For More series, with Pastor Emmanuel sharing about what it means to Reach. God calls us to make disciples, but sometimes that feels overwhelming. He reminded us that it is not about tactics or strategies first, but about understanding why reaching matters. At the center of it all is God’s immense love for us, and for the worl...

|| ABOUT THIS MESSAGE || Yesterday Pastor Jerry kicked off a brand new series called  Made For More , a five week journey about why we exist and how we’re called to live on mission for Jesus. It’s not just about knowing the mission, it’s about actually living it out. He talked about three different ways people approach the mission: some believe in it enough to benefit from it, some believe in it e...

|| ABOUT THIS MESSAGE || This Sunday, Pastor Jerry walked us through a powerful reminder from the book of Judges: one day our lives will be summed up in just a few words. For Jair, who led Israel for 22 years, the record simply says his 30 sons each had a donkey and a town. Nothing about faith. Nothing about impact. It’s a sobering reminder that what matters most isn’t the stuff we accumulate but...

|| ABOUT THIS MESSAGE ||  Yesterday, Pastor Jerry wrapped up our journey through the book of Acts with an incredible message from Acts 28. Even though we’ve come to the end of this series, the story of what God is doing isn’t over—it’s still happening through us. We looked at Paul’s final stretch to Rome, his boldness in sharing Jesus no matter the circumstances, and the reminder that God’s invita...

|| ABOUT THIS MESSAGE || Yesterday, Pastor David continued our  Acts Unchained  series in Acts 28. After the storm, Paul and his crew found themselves on the island of Malta, where what they expected was very different from the reality God had in store. Through kindness from strangers, an unexpected snake bite, and moments of healing, God revealed that His plans are always greater than ours. Pasto...

|| ABOUT THIS MESSAGE || Yesterday, Pastor Emmanuel kept our year-long journey through Acts going with the wild ending of Paul’s shipwreck in Acts 27–28. He took on the big question, “If God’s good, why do bad things happen?”—and showed us that sometimes life’s storms come from our own choices, and other times it’s just the reality of living in a broken world. Through Paul’s story, we were reminde...

|| ABOUT THIS MESSAGE || Yesterday, Pastor Jerry walked us through Paul’s storm-filled journey in Acts 27—a story of danger, discouragement, and surprising hope. Even though Paul wasn’t the one who made the bad decision to set sail, he became a steady voice when everything fell apart. He encouraged others, trusted God’s promises, and reminded everyone that they weren’t alone. We were challenged to...

|| ABOUT THIS MESSAGE || Yesterday, Pastor Emmanuel challenged us with a message about staying faithful to God’s calling — even when things get hard. Picking up where Pastor Jerry left off, we followed Paul’s journey toward Rome and saw how obedience to God doesn’t always mean smooth sailing. In fact, it often means strong headwinds, uncomfortable circumstances, and rowing through storms. Emmanuel...
