Everlight Church Podcast

In part 1 of our "We Believe" series, Pastor Tyler covers the essentials behind what we mean when we confess "I believe in God."

Why do the wicked prosper? The Psalmist responds to this question by clarifying prosperity, rooted us in the certainty of the future, and calling us to live in the present.

What are you listening to? The Psalmist reminds us to attune our eyes, hears, and hearts to God.

Pastor Dan Hamlin reminds us of our Good Shepherd.

Pastor Trevor O'Keefe from Renewed Life Church walks us though Psalm 22 to show us how to pray with confidence that our God is well acquainted with suffering.

The book of Psalms is a collection of prayers show us how to live a life of true flourishing by orienting ourselves around Christ. Psalm 1-2 are the gateway to this life. Psalm 3-145 are the journey of this life. Psalm 146-150 are the destination of this life. Embark on this journey through the Psalms as we learn to pray, orient our lives upon Christ, and flourish in His world.

Ernesto Sanchez kicks off our new teaching series in the Psalms by directing our attention to the God's word in Psalm 1.

Jesus is risen. What now? Mark completes His gospel with a picture of Chirst ascending to the right hand of the Father in heaven. But prior to His ascension He gives a commission and calls those who believe to be baptized.

An empty tomb, an angelic message, everything on the first Easter morning points us to one truth: Christ is risen.

On Holy Saturday, everything seems silent—but beneath the surface, victory is already unfolding. In this sermon from Mark 15:42–47, we explore the reality of Christ’s death, the mystery of His burial, and His descent into death as the turning point of redemption. What looks like defeat is actually the beginning of something new—and it reshapes how we live with humility, hope, and unshakable confid...

On Good Friday, we see who Jesus truly is—not in power, but in His suffering on the cross. In Mark 15, the innocent King is rejected, mocked, and crucified so that the guilty might go free. At the cross, Christ reveals the heart of God and accomplishes everything needed for our salvation.

On Maundy Thursday, we walk with Jesus from the table to the mountain, where the faithful Savior stands while His disciples fall away. In Gethsemane, we see the weight of the cup He came to drink—the judgment we deserved—and His willing surrender to the Father’s will. At the Table, we are reminded that Christ entered our weakness so that we might share in the fullness of His life.

In this episode we reflect on  Mark 14:1–11 , the events of  Spy Wednesday  during Holy Week. An unnamed woman pours out an expensive perfume on Jesus in an act of extravagant devotion, while Judas secretly agrees to betray Him for money. Through this striking contrast, the passage confronts us with the e question:  What is Jesus worth to us?  Ultimately, the story points us to the cross, where Ch...

What is your view of the future? In this message we follow Jesus through Holy Tuesday. A fig tree withers. The Temple is declared doomed. Jesus speaks of cosmic shaking and the coming of the Son of Man in glory. At the center is a powerful truth: the future is not empty, self-made, or cyclical — it belongs to Christ. Through the cross, He opens the way to the restoration of heaven and earth, and c...

What kind of King is Jesus? On Holy Monday, Jesus curses a fruitless fig tree and cleanses the temple, confronting empty religion and calling His people to true repentance. In this message from Mark 11:12–19, we see Christ as the righteous King who judges evil, cleanses His house, and makes us fruitful through His cross.

What do you do when God doesn’t meet your expectations? As Jesus enters Jerusalem, the crowds expect a conquering king, but instead encounter a humble Savior on His way to the cross. In this teaching from Mark 11, we explore misplaced hopes, true kingship, and how Jesus fulfills our deepest longings by offering Himself as our Redeemer.

What kind of king would you be if you ruled the world? In Mark 10:46–52, a blind beggar sees what others miss as Jesus approaches Jerusalem. While the disciples grasp for glory, Bartimaeus cries out for mercy—and in doing so reveals the true nature of Christ’s kingdom. This sermon explores mercy and judgment, David’s entrance into Jerusalem, and how Jesus redefines power by bearing judgment Himsel...

We live in a culture obsessed with power—but it keeps failing us. In Mark 10, Jesus reveals a radically different vision of power, one that leads not to control or self-promotion, but to the cross. This sermon traces Jesus’ words about the cup, baptism, and ransom to show why His death was necessary—and how it brings true freedom.

Who belongs in the Kingdom of God? In Mark 10, Jesus answers with a living parable: a child in His arms and a ruler on the road. One comes empty-handed and receives everything. The other comes accomplished and walks away grieving. Only one receives the reward of life in Christ. Which path will you follow?

As we continue to follow Jesus toward the cross in the Gospel of Mark, He steadily reveals what it truly means to be His disciple. In this passage, we see that who Jesus is determines how we live. If Jesus is the Servant of all, then we are called to become servants as well. Yet, even as Jesus speaks plainly, the disciples remain confused. Their hearts are still shaped by ideas of status, elitism,...

In Mark 9, Jesus takes the disciples up a high mountain and is transfigured before them. On the mountain, Jesus shows us a path to glory, that the best is yet come, and who we are to listen to as we move forward. Find more Resources from Mark ⁠here⁠

Who do you say that Jesus is? This question is the central question of the book of Mark. Discovering Jesus' true identity determines the way in which we are to live out our lives in following Him. Find more Resources from Mark here

In week 2 of our Advent series, we explore a Christian vision for peace. By defining peace, as shalom, we discover how Jesus begins a restoration of peace on earth through the incarnation. ⁠Advent Resources

We begin Advent by looking at the incarnation through the lens of Eve and Mary. Through the tale of these two women, we see how, in a manger, God began restoring what was lost in the garden. Step into the wonder of Advent by rediscovering the redemption Christ offers, revealed so beautifully in the life of Mary. Advent Resources

Mark gives us one of the most challenging scenes in the Gospels. In one encounter, Jesus refers to a Syrophoenician woman as a “dog.” In the next, He heals a deaf man using fingers in his ears, spit, and touching his tongue. Both passages present beggars at the feet of Jesus, who come with nothing but leave with everything.
