What do we turn to when God seems silent? When Moses doesn't return from Mount Sinai, the Israelites begin to panic. They've been rescued from slavery in Egypt, but now they're waiting in the wilderness, uncertain about their future and wondering where God has gone. Their solution? Make a god they can see, touch, and control. In this first message of a three-week series on Moses, Mike...

What happens when the gospel truly takes hold of us?<br><br> In Philippians 3, Paul looks back at who he was, considers who he has become, and describes a life that is still passionately moving toward one goal: <strong>to know Christ.</strong><br><br> Paul didn't lose his intensity, energy, or zeal when he encountered Jesus. The direction of his pursuit chan...

When Getting Along Isn’t Easy | Philippians 2:1–4 | Mike Donohue What do we do when getting along with other people isn't easy? Conflict is part of life—even among good people, even in the church. In Philippians, Paul writes to a community experiencing real disagreement and reminds them that the grace they've received from God should reshape the way they relate to one another.

<strong>A Life That Is Truly Rich | Romans 16 | Mike Batley</strong><br><br> What does a truly rich life look like?<br><br> As we reach the final chapter of Romans, Paul ends one of the most theologically significant letters in Scripture in a surprisingly personal way—with names.

You’re Not the Judge | Romans 14 | Mike Donohue Why is it so easy to judge people who think, believe, or live differently than we do? As Paul continues describing what a transformed life looks like, Romans 14 addresses something incredibly practical: how we love people when we disagree with them. The early church was bringing together people from very different cultural and religious backgrounds....

Faith, Government & Authority | Romans 13:1–7 | Mike Donohue How should Christians relate to government—especially when we disagree with those in power? Romans 13:1–7 is one of Scripture's most challenging passages on government and authority. Paul calls Christians to respect and submit to governing authorities, yet Scripture also gives examples of faithful people resisting authority when obed...

It's easy to say we should love one another. Actually doing it is much harder. As Romans 12 shifts from what we believe to how we live, Paul gives us a practical picture of what it means to become people shaped by the love of God. In this message, Mike Donohue explores Romans 12:9–16 and Paul's simple but challenging instruction: Don't just pretend to love others. Really love them. Tog...

Making Space for Others | Romans 11 | Mike Donohue If God wants to save us, what does it mean when the people around us simply aren't interested? Romans 11 wrestles with a difficult question: why do some people seem hardened to the good news of Jesus? For Paul, this wasn't merely a theological problem. He deeply cared that others would experience the mercy of God that he had experienced himself. I...

You Are Enough | Romans 10:5–11 | Mike Donohue Do you ever wonder if you're doing enough, achieving enough, or simply being enough? We live in a world of constant comparison. We're surrounded by reminders of what others have accomplished, how they live, and where we seemingly fall short. But in Romans 10, Paul points us toward a radically different answer to our longing to be enough. In th...

You're Meant for More | Mark 5:1–20 | Will Cox Have you ever felt like God was pursuing you—even when you were running the other direction?

Nothing Can Separate Us | Romans 8:31–39 | John Zeigenfuse If God is for us, who can be against us?

In this message, John Zeigenfuse explores Romans 8:31–39, revealing how this passage invites us to see the beauty of Scripture and deepen...

Why did Jesus have to die? It's one of the most important questions in the Christian faith—and one that deserves more than a simple answer. In this message, Mike Donohue continues our journey through Romans 8 by exploring the doctrine of Christ's substitutionary atonement. Rather than asking us to simply accept what we've been told, we're invited to wrestle with what we believe and...

Living in the Freedom of Christ | Romans 8:1-4 & 9-11 What is God's answer to the problem of sin?

In this message, Mike Donohue explores Romans 8:1-4 & 9-11 and r...

Why do we keep doing the very things we don't want to do? In one of the most relatable passages in all of Scripture, Paul describes the inner struggle that every person experiences. We know what is right, we want what is good, yet we often find ourselves falling back into old patterns. Romans 7 reminds us that our struggle isn't simply about willpower—it's about the deeper problem and...

What does it really mean to be free? Our culture often tells us that freedom means doing whatever we want—but Paul offers a radically different perspective in Romans 6. True freedom isn't found in self-rule; it's found in surrendering to the One who gives life. In this message, Renee Frustaci walks through Romans 6:12–23 by asking three powerful questions: • Who's leading me? • Who am...

Happy Father's Day, ChurchOne! As we continue our journey through the book of Romans, we arrive at one of Paul's most important questions: "Should we keep on sinning so that God can show us more and more of His wonderful grace?" In Romans 6:1-11, we discover that God's grace was never meant to make us comfortable with sin—it was meant to make us alive in Christ. This message...

5 Therefore, since we have been made right in God’s sight by faith, we have peace with God because of what Jesus Christ our Lord has done for us. 2 Because of our faith, Christ has brought us into this place of undeserved privilege where we now stand, and we confidently and joyfully look forward to sharing God’s glory. 3 We can rejoice, too, when we run into problems and trials, for we know that t...

13 Clearly, God’s promise to give the whole earth to Abraham and his descendants was based not on his obedience to God’s law, but on a right relationship with God that comes by faith. 14 If God’s promise is only for those who obey the law, then faith is not necessary and the promise is pointless. 15 For the law always brings punishment on those who try to obey it. (The only way to avoid breaking t...

1 O Lord, our Sovereign, how majestic is your name in all the earth! You have set your glory above the heavens. 2 Out of the mouths of babes and infants you have founded a bulwark because of your foes, to silence the enemy and the avenger. 3 When I look at your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars that you have established; 4 what are humans that you are mindful of them, morta...

4 Now there are varieties of gifts but the same Spirit, 5 and there are varieties of services but the same Lord, 6 and there are varieties of activities, but it is the same God who activates all of them in everyone. 7 To each is given the manifestation of the Spirit for the common good. 8 To one is given through the Spirit the utterance of wisdom and to another the utterance of knowledge according...

Acts 1:6-11 - The Ascension with Mike Donohue - 2026.5.17 6 So when they had come together, they asked him, “Lord, is this the time when you will restore the kingdom to Israel?” 7 He replied, “It is not for you to know the times or periods that the Father has set by his own authority. 8 But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, in...

John 10:11-18 11 “I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep. 12 The hired hand, who is not the shepherd and does not own the sheep, sees the wolf coming and leaves the sheep and runs away, and the wolf snatches them and scatters them. 13 The hired hand runs away because a hired hand does not care for the sheep. 14 I am the good shepherd. I know my own, and my own k...

John 10:1-10 10 “Very truly, I tell you, anyone who does not enter the sheepfold by the gate but climbs in by another way is a thief and a bandit. 2 The one who enters by the gate is the shepherd of the sheep. 3 The gatekeeper opens the gate for him, and the sheep hear his voice. He calls his own sheep by name and leads them out. 4 When he has brought out all his own, he goes ahead of them, and th...
