The harvest is ripe, and we are called to be workers in God's field. This powerful message centers on John 4, where Jesus speaks about the plentiful harvest and the need for laborers. We're reminded that our eyes need to be opened to see the spiritual opportunities all around us. The key lesson is that we all have a role to play - whether sowing, watering, or reaping - in sharing the good...

In this powerful exploration of Jesus' identity Travis Avila dives deep into the Old Testament prophecies and their fulfillment in Christ. The sermon takes us on a journey through Daniel's visions, connecting them to Jesus' self-proclamation as the 'Son of Man.' We're challenged to see how Jesus defied expectations, becoming both the ultimate priest and king, while crushing...

In this powerful message, we're challenged to consider God's primary method of demonstrating Himself to the world - through His people. The story of Moses and the burning bush in Exodus 3 illustrates this beautifully. Just as God called Moses to lead His people out of Egypt, He's calling us today to be His representatives in our communities. We're not just saved to sit in church pews; we're saved...

In this message we walk through the central call of a disciple...to FEAST on JESUS and draw our very life from him everyday, all throughout the day! To eat his flesh and drink his blood is to receive the full merits of his sacrificial, atoning work on the cross into the very core of our beings; believing that he is the all-sufficient Savior and Lord. It also means abiding in and obeying his word i...

In this powerful message, we're challenged to embrace our role in Jesus' mission of discipleship. The key scripture, Luke 9:10-17, recounts the feeding of the 5,000 - a miracle that goes beyond just satisfying physical hunger. Jesus' command, 'You give them something to eat,' becomes a call for each of us to participate in nourishing others spiritually. This isn't about hav...

In this powerful message, we're reminded of our role as forerunners between Christ's first and second coming. The story of John the Baptist serves as our inspiration, showing us how to prepare the way for the Lord. We're called to embrace our identity in Scripture, just as John did, deriving our purpose from God's word rather than the world. The wilderness, though challenging, is presented as a cr...

Luke 12:35 gives us a snapshot of the kind of life we're to be living in light of Jesus' SECOND ADVENT...

In our exploration of Matthew 12, we encounter Jesus as He challenges our understanding of spiritual identity by presenting Himself as greater than the temple, Jonah, and Solomon. What does this mean for us? It signifies that Jesus invites us into a life of ongoing encounter and transformation. He is greater than the temple, meaning our relationship with Him transcends traditional rituals and phys...

In Mark 10, we discover four powerful movements that shape our journey as disciples of Christ. First, we're called to embrace a childlike posture of dependency and trust, recognizing that the Kingdom of God is a gift to be received, not earned. This humility opens our hearts to experience the joy and wonder of God's love. Next, we're challenged to examine our priorities, ensuring that Christ remai...

In this powerful message, Pastor Neil Broere walked us through Genesis 7 and the story of Noah and the ark. Doors PROTECT, SEPARATE and CONNECT...it's in the HALLWAY of delay, when God closes one door and opens another that we often loose heart and abandon trust and patience knowing that it is the LORD who determines times and season. In hallways of transition WORSHIP and WAIT on the LORD!

In this powerful exploration of Genesis 1, we're reminded of God's incredible power to bring order out of chaos. The phrase 'formless and void' (tohu wabohu in Hebrew) paints a vivid picture of a world in disarray, much like our own lives and society can feel at times. But just as God spoke light into darkness, He can speak order into our chaos. We're called to be co-creators with God, bringing Hi...

In this message Pastor Chad unpacks the various dynamics involved in what Jesus meant by calling his church salt in light in the world.

Though our faith is deeply personal, it is NOT private! We're called to shine the light of Jesus all over the earth...

Key point: we have a FATHER who is GOOD and GIVES good gifts to his children.

So much of what we might call "spiritual warfare" is more about STANDING in the VICTORY already WON by JESUS than it is going out in hand to hand combat against the enemy's schemes to steal, kill and destroy. THE BEST WAY to overcome the plans of the enemy to discourage, depress and discount us is to DECLARE what JESUS HAS DONE! Then to apply by faith WHO YOU ARE BECAUSE OF CHRIST.

Today, we witnessed a powerful testimony of freedom and deliverance through Christ. We learned how the Lord can break chains of addiction and lust that have bound us for years. The story of a woman's journey from a life controlled by lustful desires to one of liberation in Christ reminds us of the transformative power of Jesus' name. This testimony echoes Luke 4:18-19, where Jesus proclaim...

We're called to embrace two powerful movements in our faith journey: 'Come and see Jesus' and 'Come and participate in His community.' The first movement challenges us to be perpetually fascinated by Jesus' glory, wonder, and beauty. It's not enough to be affiliated or to affirm truths; we must come to Him, hear His words, and put them into practice. This echoes John 3:...

In this powerful message, we're called to embrace two transformative movements in our spiritual lives. The first is encapsulated in the phrase 'Come and see Jesus.' This isn't just a casual invitation, but a profound call to behold Christ in all His glory. John 1 paints a vivid picture of Jesus, describing Him in multiple ways - as the Word of God, the light in darkness, and the La...

In this message Pastor Chad walks us through James 1 where we're called to not only LISTEN to the WORD but to DO WHAT IT SAYS.

Many of us have heard so many messages, listened to many podcasts, attended a plethora of conferences and we often live with an illusion of our maturity because we've cognitively learned m...

In this message Chad walks us through the narrative of the Book of Acts and how the early church had POWER in witness and proclamation BECAUSE they had POTENCY in community, practicing the Jesus way with other believers. We need both in our time so desperately. Potent Community Power for Witness and Mission

We continue to look at the essential nature of the TABLE in the kingdom of God. The disciple's hearts BURNED as he unfolded the scriptures to them on the road but their eyes were OPENED when Jesus broke bread and gave it to them.

In this message Chad walks us through Luke 22 where Jesus administers the Passover meal with his disciples. We look at several dynamics at work around the table...betrayal, pride and power hungry disciples, those the enemy has sought to sift like wheat...in the midst of it all, Jesus offers us his body and blood.

In this message Chad walks us through Matthew 21 unpacking what happens what Jesus puts his house in order, all that is in his heart FOR his house and THROUGH his house can function and flow as designed in his heart.
