Get In // John 7:37-39 // 6.28.26 28.06.2026 44:33

Most of us are comfortable standing near the things of God. We can talk about faith, attend church, and know the right answers while never stepping into the life Jesus offers. In this message from John 7 and Ezekiel 47, we explore the ancient invitation of God to come and drink deeply from His Spirit. From Ezekiel's vision of a river bringing life to the Dead Sea to Jesus' declaration at t...

Guard it or Set it // Luke 5:27-32 // 4.12.26 12.04.2026 42:58

What if the most controversial thing about Jesus wasn't his miracles, his teaching, or even his disciples, but who he chose to eat with? In this message from Christian Hills Church, we walk through Luke 5:27-32 and the story of Levi the tax collector, the man everybody had written off, who Jesus called to follow him in two words. We'll look at why the Pharisees were so scandalized by Jesus...

Jesus Visits the Jericho Mafia Boss | Zacchaeus & Luke 19:1-10 01.03.2026 50:52

We're more followed, more friended, more liked, and more alone than we've ever been. The U.S. Surgeon General has called loneliness a public health epidemic, and the data backs it up. So what's the answer? In this message from our 'Pull Up a Chair' series, we walk through Luke 19:1-10, the story of Zacchaeus, the chief tax collector of Jericho, and discover that Jesus' prim...

Go Out and Fill the House // Luke 14 // 2.1.26 01.02.2026 44:55

(sound issues) How did Jesus actually spend His time? When you look closely at the Gospels, nearly half of Jesus’ life unfolds around tables and meals. Not sermons. Not stages. Tables. In this message from Luke 14, we explore Jesus’ most uncomfortable dinner party and His radical vision for hospitality. As Jesus eats with Pharisees, heals on the Sabbath, confronts pride, and tells the parable of t...

What Do You Do When Hope Feels Dead? | Hope Beyond Hope | Romans 4:18 & Jeremiah 33 08.12.2025 46:08

When was the last time you prayed a bold prayer? Not "God, bless this food." But something risky. Something that would actually hurt if God didn't come through. If you're honest, it's been a while. Because you've been burned before. You've hoped, prayed, believed—and nothing happened. The marriage didn't heal. The prodigal didn't come home. The diagnosis didn&...

What would happen if we didn't forget the Sabbath?

What would happen if we lived unhurried on purpose?

Trusting the Infinite God // Jn 6:1-15 // 9.14.25 14.09.2025 37:56

What would it look like to live as if we're just stewarding someone else's resources?

Do you want to get well? // John 5v1-14 // 8.03.25 03.08.2025 45:46

What would happen if we said yes to Jesus' question: "Do you want to get well?"

Give us this day our daily bread / Mt6v11 / 7.06.25 07.07.2025 41:32

What would happen if we prayed really bold prayers?

On Earth As It Is In Heaven / Mt6v9 / 6.22.25 03.07.2025 28:32

What does it look like to pray like Jesus taught us?
