In this powerful conclusion to our Jesus Said It series, Pastor Jeremy Austill brings a word straight from the heart of Revelation 2 — a message Jesus gave to a faithful, hard-working church… with one devastating complaint: “You don’t love Me like you used to.” This week, we walk through the letter to the church in Ephesus — a church full of truth, endurance, and sound doctrine, but lacking the fi...

In this message, Pastor Gunnar challenges us to live a life of relentless pursuit — not for perfection or accolades, but for Christ Himself . Drawing from Paul’s prison letter to the Philippians, we’re reminded that spiritual maturity is not a destination but a daily decision. From the uphill battles of real life (including a literal Turkey Trot!) to the spiritual hills we all face, this sermon ca...

What did Jesus actually say about prayer? In this powerful sermon from our JESUS SAID IT series, we explore one of His most famous teachings—The Lord’s Prayer—and unpack what it really means to have a private, sincere, and transformational prayer life. Jesus said “WHEN you pray…”—not if. This message dives into the seven "When You" statements of Matthew 6, examines why Jesus Himself pray...

Join us as we dive into Matthew 4:1–11 and unpack how Jesus modeled resisting temptation through Scripture. “It Is Written” isn’t just a sermon title—it’s a powerful reminder that God’s Word is our steadfast defense in every trial. Discover how identity, the Holy Spirit, and the Bible together form a framework for navigating life’s most intense challenges. Whether you're facing hunger, people...

As we continue in Philippians, we see the importance of rejoicing in the Lord despite circumstances and not relying on human efforts or external markers like circumcision for salvation. Paul shares his personal testimony, highlighting how his past accomplishments and pedigree became worthless compared to the value of knowing Christ, and how he now finds righteousness through faith in Christ rather...

Today we looked at Jesus' lament over Jerusalem and how it serves as a model for believers to navigate the complexities of the world with both head and heart, principle and emotion. In a society that often prioritizes feelings over truth, Christians must strive to balance empathy and compassion with biblical principles. By cultivating a right spirit through prayer, consuming God's Word,...

Ready for a reality check on discipleship? In this Father’s Day message, Pastor Jeremy Austill launches our new series JESUS SAID IT by unpacking Luke 14:25-33 and Jesus’ razor-sharp words: “If you don’t carry your own cross, you cannot be My disciple.” What you’ll discover in “Carry Your Cross” Noise vs. The Word – why Jesus’ voice must cut through today’s endless opinions. The Great Feast Parabl...

Ever feel like negativity is draining your soul? In this mid-week message, Pastor Jeremy Austill unpacks Philippians 2:14-18 and shows us why a life “poured out” in worship leaves no room for chronic complaining—and shines a blazing light in a world gone dark. What you’ll hear in “Poured Out” The Holy Spirit’s Quiet Work – partnering with God as He reshapes our deepest desires. Why Complaints Cost...

Feeling isolated, overwhelmed, or spiritually “plugged up”? 👂💭 In this message Pastor Gunnar (yes, with a giant Q-Tip! 🧹) walks through 1 Kings 19 to show how God still speaks—in a whisper—right in the middle of our cave seasons.

We see in Philippians that God is not demanding fruit, He is producing it in you. God is cultivating it on the inside of you. Whatever you have in your hand, work it out, walk it out but don't leave God out of the equation! 

Are you tired of fighting the same battles over and over? In this powerful message from the Outrunning Chariots series, Pastor Jeremy dives into Elisha’s final prophecy and shows how partial obedience can limit the victory God has promised. But it’s not too late—Keep Striking. Learn how faith-filled persistence, spiritual endurance, and walking in God’s instructions can break the cycles that have...

In Philippians we explore the concept of living with a "Christ mindset," characterized by humility, selflessness, and unity. Through the example of Jesus, who laid down His rights and privileges to serve humanity, believers are called to adopt a similar mindset, prioritizing others' needs and interests over their own. By embracing this mindset, individuals can experience a profound...

💥 In Part 5 of our Outrunning Chariots series, we rewind to one of the most powerful moments in Elijah’s early ministry—the encounter with the widow of Zarephath. This Memorial Day weekend, we’re talking about sacrifice—not as a religious buzzword, but as the refining fire God uses to shape our lives. From a “little cup of water” to the “last bite of bread,” this message challenges us to shift fr...

Diving more into Philippians, it emphasizes living as citizens of heaven, standing together with one spirit and purpose, and fighting for the faith despite opposition. Paul encourages believers not to be intimidated by enemies, but instead to stand firm, knowing that their salvation is secure and their suffering is a privilege to share in Christ's sufferings. Through examples like Paul and Si...

In this message, "Open My Eyes," we dive into the story of Elisha to discover how faith allows us to see beyond the natural and into God's greater reality. When fear surrounds us, God opens our eyes to see His protection, His purpose, and His power already at work. This sermon is a call to live not just by what we see, but by who we know—a God who is present, powerful, and always wo...

In the face of adversity, what will flow out of you? Paul shares with the church of Philippi how life and death for the believer should not cause us to shrink back in shame. Instead, life and death for the believer gives us the best of both worlds.

Today we learned about building big faith and tapping into God's supernatural strength to accomplish His purposes. A key takeaway is that God often works with what we already have, rather than requiring something entirely new, and that faith involves using what we have and trusting God to do more. We are encouraged to start with what they have, be grateful for it, and trust God to multiply it...

Paul's letter to the Philippians explores what it means to live "in Christ." It shows his deep affection for the Philippian church, highlighting the importance of spiritual authority, fellowship, and shared mission in spreading the Gospel. We see through God's good work in believers and the church, the importance of stewardship, love, and growing in knowledge and understanding...

As we look further into the life of Elijah we learn how pivotal it is to be confident and bold in the face of darkness. This darkness messes with our personal lives--in our marriages, our kids, our health and more. We as the church are planted in the middle of a broken world to fight against this darkness victoriously.

This sermon reminds us that prayer should be our first response, not a last resort—it’s meant to be a regular part of our lives, not just something we turn to when we’re desperate. It also shows that we’re not meant to do life or faith alone—we need each other’s prayers, support, and honesty to grow and heal. Lastly, it challenges us to care deeply for those who have drifted away from God, and to...

As we look at part of Elijah's story we see how brooks and ravens can show us reasons why God sometimes seem to pause or hide us in seasons. It becomes less about “having" faith and more about becoming a person "of" faith.

What do we do when the promise hasn’t arrived yet? When we’re trusting God but still wrestling with reality. James 5:7–11 gives us a blueprint for what to do in the meantime of our seasons — how to stay patient, how to stay grounded, and how to remember that God is not just watching us wait — He’s working in the waiting.

As we follow Jesus through the gospels we see that Jesus changed everything for many people--the leper, the thief on the cross, the Samaritan woman and many more. He still continues to change everything for us today through the cross and resurrection of Jesus Christ.

Jesus' triumphal entry was a statement to the world of the coming King. When Christ came as our King, He did so in a way that was unexpected by the religious leaders of the time. Their example is a lesson for us today in how we should interact with our King.

Are we to be people who make plans? In James it shows the believer how we are to not go off of personal preference or worldly wisdom but acknowledge God in our plans. We have a great responsibility to always lean into obedience and walk with the Lord’s voice leading our path.
