These past few months, you have learned how Jesus came so you can live free. Don't miss this final weekend to hear the rest of the story. What were the last words the apostle Paul wrote to the churches of Galatia? Join Pastor Cal Jernigan as he teaches on why it’s all about Jesus. 

What does the world need more of right now? What does the church need more of right now? Jesus said that his children would be known by their LOVE. He didn’t say his church would be known by its accomplishments, by its knowledge, or by its daily devotions.  He said we would be known by our LOVE. Join us as special guest pastor, Albert Tate, brings a powerful message about love. 

Over the past several weeks, we have been exploring the freedom Jesus gave us on the cross. We are free from the law. We are free from the need to be good enough. We are free to love all people. But are we free to sin? Join Pastor Cal Jernigan this week as he discusses from Galatians 5 what it means to be a follower of Christ. 

Did you know there is a difference between hearing and listening? Hearing is passive. When you stand on a busy street, you can’t help but hear all the different sounds passing you by. Listening, however, is active and requires your full attention. Listening is a choice and the power of a listening ear is often underrated if not totally ignored in our culture. Join Lisa Jernigan as she shows how Go...

Who doesn’t want to do the right thing? Perhaps some don’t, but most of us go through life trying to do what is right. Sometimes this becomes the whole point of our existence, to be good enough. It can become a trap and steal our joy as we never know if we are truly good enough. Jesus came to set you free from this trap. Join Pastor Cal Jernigan as he preaches from Galatians chapter 5. Become free...

Join us for this special edition live podcast with Cal Jernigan as we dive deeper and answer your questions about Galatians 4.  Check out our Beyond the Lines Podcast: https://beyondthelines.buzzsprout.com/ 

So many people choose to be held back by the chains they’ve always worn. What if there was a way to be free? Sometimes we can try to be free on our own, striving to gain God’s acceptance. What if we told you don’t need to strive? Join Pastor Cal Jernigan as he shows us how God has made a way for everyone to find true freedom.  The choice is yours.

What if the Easter story changes everything? What if nothing is more important, impactful, significant, and life changing than the moment Jesus rose from the grave? Join Pastor Cal Jernigan this Easter to find out what Easter means and why it represents the most important event in human history.  

What does it look like to be called by God? Are only certain people called or are all of us called? Paul was the most unlikely person to be called by God, yet Jesus did the extraordinary. God used Paul’s history and his story to transform the world. Did you know God can use your story too? Join Pastor Cal Jernigan this week as he teaches on the power of the story you’ve been given. 

Do you know how easy it is to create a FALSE gospel? It is so easy that it immediately began happening a few years after Jesus went back to heaven. What is a false gospel? A false gospel turns the good news of Jesus into the bad news of a legalistic religion. Many of us are living out the rules and regulations of a false gospel right now. That is not the life God wants for you. Join Pastor Cal Jer...

Why did Paul write the book of Galatians? This is the launch of our new sermon series on Galatians. One of the keys to understanding Galatians is knowing the history of the author, Paul. Join Pastor Cal Jernigan as he unpacks for us Paul’s personal journey as we begin this new series on Galatians. 

Why is it so important for Christians to tithe? What if God doesn’t need our money? Rather, God wants to give us the opportunity to tithe so that we might experience a part of who God is. Join Pastor Cal Jernigan this weekend as he talks about the importance of the tithe in the life of the believer.  

Why is our culture predominantly ruled by debt? There are only three ways to use our money. We can spend it, we can save it, or we can give it. Unfortunately, our culture constantly tells us to spend our money and to spend it fast. Little thought is often given to the other two options. Join Pastor Cal Jernigan as he talks about how changing what we do with our money can change our lives. 

What is debt? The reality of debt is that it is a type of slavery. It steals peace and gives shame in peace’s place. But there is good news! Debt doesn’t have to rule your life. God specializes in setting those who are captives free. Join Pastor Steve Carter this week as he talks about debt and how God desires for you to be debt free. 

Generosity is in God’s heart. He gave us the most generous gift in Jesus’ life. Why then is generosity so hard to talk about? Think of your favorite selfish person. Can’t do it? That’s because generosity is something we value in others but would rather not do ourselves. Join Pastor Cal Jernigan as he talks about how generosity can bring true joy to your life.  

Money is a hard topic to talk about. One reason for this is because talking about money and debt is often associated with shame or anxiety. But God wants us to be free from these feelings about money. Join Central this week as special guest, Rachel Cruze, shows us how God can help us get our finances back on track. 

If you are 95% faithful to your spouse, are you considered faithful? If your car breaks down once a week but runs well the rest of the time, is it a faithful source of transportation? Join us this week as Pastor Cal Jernigan reminds us that when we choose to follow God, He is concerned with more than just 10% of our resources. He wants us to be faithful with all of the blessings He gives us.

This MLK Weekend we want to acknowledge Martin Luther King’s work in civil rights while also diving deeper into how we can better listen to our sisters and brothers of color. Listen in as Pastor Cal Jernigan and his good friend Reverend David L. Wade from Mt. Calvary Baptists Church of Mesa have a conversation about race, unity, and more.

Many people admire Jesus. Even people who don’t believe in Jesus admire him. Jesus was one of the most influential people who has ever lived in all of history, so it makes sense. But Jesus doesn’t want his followers to just admire him, he wants us to imitate him. Join Pastor Cal Jernigan this weekend as he shows us the difference between admiring Jesus and imitating him.

It’s officially 2022! And whenever a new year emerges it invokes ideas of fresh starts, clean slates, new goals and aspirations. These are all honorable desires, but what if we didn’t have to keep making lists each new year with the same content? What if we leaned into the newness that Jesus wants for all of us that lasts year after year? Join Pastor Tyler Hart as he shows us how we can  trust God...

Did you know that you are loved? We have all been through some tough times in the last few years. Join Pastor Cal Jernigan as he shows us why the Christmas story means that you are loved and not alone. Jesus didn’t come down to live in a royal palace in perfect peace. He came to suffer for you.
