Who Is Jesus?: Pray Like This (Ken LaMont) E11 21.06.2026 39:48
In this Father's Day message, we explore the profound significance of the Lord's Prayer, positioned at the very center of Jesus's Sermon on the Mount. This isn't by accident—Jesus intentionally placed prayer at the heart of kingdom living. Discover how the Lord's Prayer is more than just words to recite; it's a transformative practice designed to shape our hearts and align our lives with God's pur...
Who Is Jesus?: Hidden Faith’s True Reward (Devan Bumstead) E10 14.06.2026 39:07
In a culture obsessed with being seen, Jesus calls us back to hidden faith. Pastor Devan explores Matthew 6:1-16, challenging us to examine our motives behind any spiritual practice we engage in. Are we doing these to be noticed by others, or to genuinely connect with God? When we seek the Father's approval in the secret place rather than chasing earthly applause, we discover the reward our souls...
Who Is Jesus?: Love Your Enemies (Devan Bumstead) E09 07.06.2026 40:34
In this powerful message from the "Who Is Jesus?" series, we explore one of Jesus' most counter-cultural teachings: loving our enemies. Through Matthew 5:38-44, we discover that Jesus isn't calling us to be doormats, but to engage in creative, non-violent resistance that exposes injustice while seeking reconciliation over revenge. Drawing from the Civil Rights Movement and examining the cultural...
Who Is Jesus?: Heart of the Matter (Rudy Haygood) E08 31.05.2026 33:50
In this powerful message from Matthew 5, Pastor Rudy explores Jesus' teaching on anger and reconciliation from the Sermon on the Mount. Discover how repentance isn't just a one-time act but a lifestyle of continually turning back to God. Learn why "rage is the practice of making others less" while worship makes God big—and why we can't do both simultaneously. This sermon challenges us to move beyo...

Who Is Jesus?: Lessons From My Thorn (Devan Bumstead) E03 26.04.2026 49:30
In this deeply personal and vulnerable message, Pastor Devan shares his 6-year journey of living with a Huntington's Disease diagnosis—the same degenerative neurological condition that took his father. From bitter estrangement, to depression and suicidal thoughts, to finally facing his biggest fear head-on, he reveals how God has transformed his greatest weakness into profound strength. Through ra...
Who Is Jesus?: The Good Life Pt 1 (Ken LaMont) E02 19.04.2026 39:55
In this message on Matthew 5:3-6, we explore Jesus's radical teaching on true happiness and "the good life." Just as Yale's most popular class ever tried to address student anxiety by teaching happiness, Jesus offers something far deeper in the Beatitudes—a complete inversion of worldly assumptions about blessing and success. Discover why Jesus says the truly fortunate aren't the wealthy, powerful...
Who Is Jesus?: What Is The Kingdom? (Ken LaMont) E01 12.04.2026 41:12
In this introduction to a new series on the Sermon on the Mount, we explore Jesus' revolutionary "Kingdom Manifesto"—a blueprint for what it looks like when God's rule and reign are lived out in our daily lives. With just 107 verses, this sermon has influenced history more than any other teaching, challenging figures from Gandhi to Tolstoy. But as John Stott noted, it remains "the most well known,...
Easter: Power of the Resurrection (Ken LaMont) 05.04.2026 32:31
This Easter message celebrates the transformative power of Christ's resurrection and what it means for our lives today. Through the illustration of Wellington's victory at Waterloo and the discovery of the empty tomb, this sermon explores how Jesus defeated death, sin, and shame. Just as the people of London's mourning turned to joy when they saw the full message—"Wellington Defeated Napoleon"—our...
Palm Sunday (Juan Palomino) 29.03.2026 37:31
On Palm Sunday, crowds welcomed Jesus into Jerusalem expecting a political revolutionary who would overthrow Rome. Instead, Jesus came as a spiritual savior riding humbly on a donkey toward the cross. This message explores the powerful symbols of Palm Sunday—the donkey, palm branches, and the cry "Hosanna"—revealing how Jesus had something far greater in mind than temporary rescue from oppression....
Generosity: Serve Generously (Ken LaMont) E6 15.03.2026 35:43
Three weeks before Easter, Jesus tells His disciples He's going to be crucified and raised to life. But instead of grasping the gravity of His words, James and John's mother asks Jesus to give her sons the best seats in His kingdom. Jesus uses this moment to flip the world's power structure upside down, teaching that true greatness isn't found in positioning ourselves above others, but in serving...
Generosity: How To Live Generously Pt 2 (Ken LaMont) E5 08.03.2026 58:15
In this final message of the Generosity series, we explore 1 Timothy 6:17-19 and discover that true generosity isn't about what's in your pocket, but what's in your heart. Learn practical "do's and don'ts" for managing finances as followers of Christ—from avoiding the comparison trap and living within your means, to creating a generosity fund and partnering with God's mission. Through powerful sto...
Generosity: How To Live Generously Pt 1 (Ken LaMont) E5 02.03.2026 45:06
In week 5 of our Generosity series, we explore the practical side of biblical giving. Drawing from 2 Corinthians 9, this message addresses the who, when, where, and what of generosity. Learn why giving is a heart issue before it's a financial one, discover the biblical principle of first fruits and tithing, and understand where your giving should go—your church, kingdom expansion, and the poor. Wh...
Generosity: Eternal Investment (Ken LaMont) E4 22.02.2026 47:23
In week four of our Generosity series, Pastor Ken explores Jesus' teaching from the Sermon on the Mount about making eternal investments. Drawing from Matthew 6:19-24, he challenges listeners to shift from an earthly to a kingdom perspective on finances. The message examines three key choices: two investments (earthly vs. heavenly treasures), two perspectives (temporal vs. eternal), and two master...
Generosity: Ownership (Devan Bumstead) E3 15.02.2026 34:37
In this message on generosity, we explore the tension between the American Dream's emphasis on ownership and the Kingdom of God's call to stewardship. Through a journey from Genesis to the Gospels, we discover that God owns it all: our homes, jobs, resources, even our very breath. We're not owners but stewards—caretakers of what belongs to God. This shift in perspective isn't about restriction but...
Generosity: Generous People (Ken LaMont) E2 08.02.2026 49:33
Pastor Ken explores why Jesus taught more about money than any other topic and challenges a fundamental question: Why does God bless us with wealth when He knows it's "hard for the rich to enter the kingdom of God"? Drawing from 2 Corinthians 9 and the parable of the rich fool, this message confronts our scarcity mindset and reveals God's true purpose for blessing us financially. The answer isn't...
Generosity: God's Generosity (Ken LaMont) E1 01.02.2026 44:37
Pastor Ken explores what it means to move from merely giving to becoming truly generous people. Drawing from 2 Corinthians 9:6-11 and Jesus' teachings in Matthew, this message challenges the scarcity mindset that keeps us from generosity and invites us to see God as our scandalously generous provider. Learn how generosity isn't just about what we have, but about our hearts and perspective—and disc...
