Egypt was a scary place for Joseph's family. Yet, God led Jacob and sons there in order to preserve them and help them flourish. This teaching reminds us again that God's plan can be trusted for our lives.

Jacob's life is coming to a close, yet the words of faith he shares with his family are powerful. He learned by living that God was his Shepherd. God was in control even when life felt out of control. He can be trusted to keep His promise of blessing and therefore, we can trust Him too.

We are nearing the end of Joseph's story. Tension is building. Will Joseph and his family reunite? Will there be forgiveness? Will they reconcile? Join us as we learn about reconciliation and how God calls and equips us to be reconcilers in our lives today.

Guilt. It is a powerful emotion that can be used to help us deal with sin biblically OR keep us from living the new life that Jesus offers to us. Join us as we study this from the story of Joseph. For more information about our church and getting connected, visit www.fbczeeland.org.

Trusting that God is working is hard, especially when the days turn into weeks, months, and years. But God's timing is designed to build trust and faithfulness in His people. Today we learn this lesson from the life of Joseph.

Where is God in our moments of greatest temptation? He is with us. Today we learn from the life of Joseph how God walks with and empowers His people for service. We also learn what it means to walk with God as we face trials and temptations.

Sin rarely stems from one decision but from multiple choices made over the course of time. Together, we look at how Joseph goes from being the favored son to a slave and this affects each part of his family.

What makes a person? As we begin our study on the life of Joseph, this first teaching looks at his past--broken and messy--and sees God's grace at the center of Joseph's story.

In this message, Pastor Jay looks at 6 kinds of fruit that we bear as we learn to abide in Jesus.

This week’s message is a commissioning service for Pastor Jay Weber, where we publicly sets him apart for the calling God has given him as our youth pastor. Together we are reminded that pastoral ministry is not just a job but a sacred calling marked by sacrifice, accountability, and the need for the Holy Spirit’s power. The sermon closes with Paul’s charge to Timothy, calling Jay to preach the Wo...

In this episode, we explore what Jesus meant when He said, “I am the true vine,” and why real life and lasting fruit can only come from staying connected to Him. We unpack the difference between God’s discipline and His pruning—both can be painful, but one corrects while the other grows us—and how our response shapes our spiritual journey. Along the way, we’ll see how abiding in Christ transforms...

What do you do when you world completely falls apart? This week we're diving into one of Jesus' moost astonishing miracles--raising Lazarus back to life--and discovering howit foreshadows the eternal, abundant life He offer through salvation.

What kind of disciple are you? In John 15, Jesus paints a beautiful picture of what God truly desires for His followers. He calls us to be fruitful — lives that reflect His love, character, and power in real, visible ways. And He invites us to be dependent — staying deeply connected to Him like branches to the vine, relying on His strength, wisdom, and provision in every area of life. The question...

Everyone has a relationship to Jesus; but not everyone has a relationship with Jesus. In this Palm Sunday message, we look at how people engaged with Jesus and ask ourselves the question: what is my relationship with Jesus?

Following Jesus. That's the call and joy of the Believer. In this last message in the Upper Room Lesson Series, we look at the final words Jesus shares before He and His disciples leave the upper room.

Who is the Holy Spirit and what does He do in our lives? Following John 14, we learn five ways the Holy Spirit works in our lives for God's glory.

Today we look at how Jesus is one with the Father. Join us as we feebly attempt to understand the infinte, almighty, and triune God.

In this next teaching, we look at the selfless love Jesus models and calls us to live by His grace.

Jesus is coming back! These words provided hope to a group of disciples being prepared for His soon coming death and they give us hope today as we await His return.

As we look at the Shema today, we are focusing on what it means to love God with the passions He has given us.

Today we start a new mini-series on the Mega Commandment. Jesus affirmed the greatest commands of all Scripture are to love God (Deuteronomy 6.4-5) and love your neighbor (Leviticus 19.18). What does that look like today? How do we faithfully walk this out as disciples of Jesus?
