Epiphany Church Sermons

When Everything Falls Apart | Pastor Brandon Watts | 26.07.06 by Epiphany Church Brooklyn

In John 4, Jesus meets a woman carrying more than a water jar and reveals a truth that speaks to every restless heart searching for lasting satisfaction. This message invites us to consider whether the things we're chasing can truly satisfy and points us to the One who can.

As we look at the baptism of Jesus, we'll see what the Father reveals about Himself and what every father should strive to be. It's a message about presence, identity, and the powerful impact a father can have in the life of a child.

We all have areas of brokenness, weakness, and struggle that we’d rather keep hidden. This Sunday, we’ll look at the story of Naaman and discover how God’s grace meets us in the very places where we are most aware of our need for Him.

Have you ever put God on a timeline? Submitted a prayer request that was time sensitive? Yet instead of receiving a response you found yourself in the God’s waiting room. If that wasn’t enough, it’s while you’re stuck in God’s waiting room that your situation goes from bad to worse. In our passage today we find dear friends of Jesus stuck in His waiting room not by negligence but by design. This s...

This Sunday we continue the story of Samson and examine the events that led to one of the most devastating moments of his life. Through this powerful passage, we’ll explore how seemingly small decisions can shape our future and why staying close to God matters more than we often realize.

This Sunday we’ll walk through one of the most raw and tension filled moments in Samson’s life and see how God continues to work even in seasons of failure, weakness, and brokenness.

One decision. One sin. 70,000 lives affected. This message unpacks the weight of sin, the ripple effect it creates, and why we must take it seriously.

Matthew 27:15-26 (NIV) Two thousand years ago, a crowd stood in front of two men. Both named Jesus. One a criminal, one the Christ. They weren't fooled. They just wanted the Jesus that wouldn't cost. In this message, we revisit Pilate's courtyard, confront a church still choosing the counterfeit, and answer the question every soul has to face: which Jesus will you choose today?

As we celebrate 10 years, we’re reminded that this moment is bigger than reflection it’s about stepping into what’s next. This message will challenge us to see our role in what God is continuing to build.

There is more happening than what we can see with our natural eyes. This message invites us to trust God’s perspective and recognize His activity even when it’s not immediately visible.

God doesn’t place us randomly, He positions us intentionally. Every believer will face a moment where comfort must bow to calling, because we are here for such a time as this. This sermon should give your clarity on how to move with boldness.

Esther 2 is a messy chapter, but God is still moving even when His hand seems hidden. This week we talked about how God works through broken systems, flawed people, and complicated stories to accomplish His purpose.

We are beginning our journey through Esther, a book where God’s name is never mentioned but His hand is everywhere. In chapter 1 we watch a messy situation unfold that God is quietly using for His purposes. Even when we cannot see Him, God is still working.

Exodus 35:4–10, 20–29 Everything God needed to build the Tabernacle was already in the hands of His people. In the same way, God has already placed in us what’s needed to build His church and reach our city. This message is all about seeing generosity as partnership with God in what He’s already doing.

The Jesus We Overlook | Pastor Brandon Watts | 25.10.19 by Epiphany Church Brooklyn

Luke 19:1-10 This passage reminds us that His grace doesn’t just forgive, it restores, renews, and reclaims what seemed too far gone. It’s a reminder that no life is beyond His reach when He decides to make it His own.

Paul reminds us that the Christian life is full of gains and losses, ups and downs, but the true prize is knowing Christ. He redefines success by counting everything else as loss compared to the surpassing worth of intimacy with Jesus. This sermon will call us to press forward with maturity, not complacency, keeping Christ at the center no matter what comes our way.

This sermon reminds us that behind human conflict and brokenness there is an unseen spiritual battle. Satan is real, he schemes, and his goal is to deceive, divide, and destroy. But God gives us armor and weapons so we can stand firm in victory.

Main Scripture - John 2:23–3:16 Supporting Scripture - Matthew 7:21-23 Luke 8:11-15 This sermon is intended to ignite believers to give Jesus their all. It is a call not to settle for a superficial faith but to walk in an allegiance that shows up every single day.

Romans 8:29-30 NKJV “A couple of weeks back we spoke about the idea of Moving Forward. That our faith is one of maturation, movement and progression. However if Joshua 3 was about why we should move forward, Romans 8 is about how we can move forward. I want to argue that we can have confidence in the future because of what God has already accomplished in the past. What has God accomplished? Accord...

Deuteronomy 6:7-15 (ESV) It is not always easy to navigate decision-making as a Christian. In addition to the regular challenges that test our faith, we are almost constantly bombarded by distractions, temptations and idols that masquerade as viable alternatives to God. In this passage, Moses gives us practical recommendations to grow our love for God in the midst of a chaotic world — reminding us...

Deuteronomy 6:4-6 (ESV Who is God? Exodus 3:14-15 (ESV) Who Am I? Matthew 22:36-40 (ESV) What does God want from me? Hebrews 10:15-17 (ESV) God engineered us to be in loving relationships with Him and one another. But if we’re not vigilant, the difficulties of the human experience can thwart and dull our love for God. God’s gracious love for us is immeasurable and unconditional. We must always do...

Before the cross, Jesus stepped into the Garden of Gethsemane, a place of crushing and surrender. In this message, we witness the Savior who gave His all and discover how His obedience in the garden still brings rest, strength, and victory to our lives today.

A life of faith is a truly life of adventure. It’s a life where you continuously have to say yes to God. Today, our sermon is not about God’s decision to deliver you but it’s about your decision to follow Him. This text in Joshua shows us that God has a promise place prepared for the children of Israel. But in order to see the promise Israel has to move forward. I believe this text is prophetic fo...
