First Love Revolution

What is heaven really like right now? In this message, Pastor Shane explores the biblical picture of the “present heaven” — the place where believers go when they die — and how it differs from the future “new heavens and new earth” still to come. Through powerful scriptures from Genesis to Revelation, we discover: What the Bible reveals about the current heaven as a place of God’s presence and wor...

What really happens after we die? In this message, Pastor Shane unpacks what the Bible says about heaven, the afterlife, and God’s eternal plan for His people. Together we explore: What it means to be “absent from the body, present with the Lord” (2 Corinthians 5:6-8) The three judgments: Judgment of Faith, Great White Throne Judgment (Revelation 20:11-15), and the Judgment Seat of Christ How heav...

Through Scripture from Matthew to Revelation, we explored how being in the Spirit transforms our lives. Practical guidance was shared on starting the day with praise, prioritizing God’s Word, prayer, meditation, and walking in faith, hope, and love. The message also touched on spiritual warfare, emphasizing resisting the enemy, cultivating worship, and praying in tongues. Attendees were encouraged...

This message is drawn from the missionary journeys of Paul ( Acts 9:15-16; Acts 13:1-5 ) to remind us of the vital call to endure in faith. Just as Paul pressed forward through suffering and setbacks, we too are called to persevere when life doesn’t match our expectations. The message challenged us to become a Joshua-and-Caleb generation—one that doesn’t shrink back in doubt but holds fast to God’...

We are challenged by Jesus’ words in Luke 14:26—that true discipleship requires loving Him above even family and our own life. What seems “impossible” for us is the very place God calls us to deeper surrender. We were reminded that Christ is not part of our life—He is our life (Colossians 3:4). Following Him means laying down our will and praying, “whatever, whenever, wherever.” Like David in Acts...

In Luke 12:49-50 , Jesus declares His desire to kindle a fire on the earth. That fire is the very love of God—burning away the flesh, igniting passion for His will, and empowering us to live surrendered lives. We are reminded of biblical moments when fire fell from heaven—on Moses and Aaron’s offering ( Leviticus 9 ), at Solomon’s temple dedication ( 2 Chronicles 7 ), and on Elijah’s altar ( 1 Kin...

The fear of the Lord is not terror, but treasure. It’s the awe, reverence, and honor that keeps our hearts aligned with God’s holiness. From Judges 17 to Isaiah 33:6, we saw how losing the fear of God leads to idolatry, but cultivating it brings wisdom, intimacy, and revival. 🙏 Revival isn’t sustained by hype — it’s sustained by reverence. Let’s be a people who tremble at His Word, honor His pres...

We are reminded of the danger of the Hezekiah Syndrome — becoming content with peace in our lifetime while forgetting future generations. 🙏 From Isaiah 39, we saw how pride, selfishness, and complacency can steal our spiritual passion. But revival calls us higher. It’s a call to humility, legacy, and renewed fire—to live with courage, to think beyond ourselves, and to pass on a faith worth follow...

This message was a powerful reminder that revival begins with surrender. Not part of our lives, but all of it laid at the feet of Jesus.  Through stories of healing and hope, we were challenged to live with bold faith and perseverance—believing, like the father in Matthew 9 and the woman with the issue of blood, that Jesus still brings dead things back to life. 🙌 This is not the time to play game...

On night one, we were reminded of Numbers 13, where everyone saw the same land, but only Joshua and Caleb saw it through the lens of God’s promise. The others let their “however” overshadow God’s faithfulness. 🔥 Key takeaway: Faith isn’t about what we see in the natural — it’s about trusting the God who keeps His promises. Revival begins when we shift our perspective from obstacles to God’s power...

In this insightful message, Rebekah invites us to look beyond the present and into the promised thousand-year reign of Jesus Christ described in Revelation 20. Using the modern idea of “FOMO” — the fear of missing out — she challenges believers to live with spiritual anticipation, making sure we don’t miss what God is doing now or what He has promised for the future. Drawing from prophetic scriptu...

In this week's message, Pastor Shane unpacks the mystery and majesty of the Millennial Reign of Christ as described in Revelation 20. What does it mean for Jesus to reign on earth for a thousand years? What role will believers play? And how does this promise shape how we live today?

Rooted in Philippians 4, this message is a powerful reminder that joy is not based on circumstances, but anchored in God. Through a personal story of loss and healing, Pastor Brandon shares how joy and peace can endure even in deep sorrow — not by our own strength, but through the sustaining presence of the Holy Spirit. This sermon unpacks how to carry joy in every season by: Rejoicing in the Lord...

In this message, Pastor Kevin Ross reminds us that God's heart still grieves over sin, injustice, and brokenness. The question is: Does ours? We’re called to align our hearts with His—grieving over what grieves Him and allowing that grief to move us into prayer, repentance, and action. “The Lord is close to the brokenhearted.” — Psalm 34:18

This post-Fourth of July message from Galatians 4 and 5 reminded us that true freedom is found only in Christ. Through His sacrifice, we are no longer slaves but sons and daughters of God, called to live by the Spirit and free from the bondage of legalism, fear, and striving. We celebrated powerful testimonies of God’s transforming work, including 190 salvations during a mission trip to Ecuador, h...

At Holy Spirit Night: Healing (Part 2) , Pastor Shane led us through an inspiring time of teaching and prayer, focusing on how believers can pray for healing with both faith and authority. Drawing from Scripture, we learned that healing prayer often involves a dual approach: humbly asking God and then commanding healing in Jesus’ name—just as biblical figures like Moses, Elijah, Peter, and Jesus H...

This message dives into the sobering imagery of the seven bowls of God's wrath as seen in Revelation 15–16. Drawing parallels to the plagues of Egypt, these final judgments signal the de-creation of the world and the end of God's patience with unrepentant humanity. Through vivid signs—sores, blood, heat, darkness, and global upheaval—Scripture reminds us that the world is not our home, a...

As we continue in our Tribulation Series, we explore Revelation 15—a pivotal chapter that unveils the seven bowls of God's wrath. This moment marks the culmination of divine judgment and the final wave of “de-creation,” as God begins to undo the world as we know it. We examine the prophetic structure of Revelation, the fall of Babylon the Great, and the spiritual call to overcome the Beast, h...

In this impactful Father's Day message, Pastor Moses takes us from the wilderness trials of Israel to the courageous victories of David and his mighty men. Through Deuteronomy 8 , Joshua 12 , and 2 Samuel 6 , we learn how seasons of hardship, worship, and even failure prepare us for spiritual battle. This sermon challenges us to rise up as leaders, depend fully on God, and fight with the weap...

In this powerful message, Pastor Moses George unpacks the spiritual journey from bondage to breakthrough, drawing from the story of Israel’s conquest of the Promised Land. With insights from Deuteronomy, Joshua, and Ephesians, he explores how faith, obedience, and spiritual warfare are essential to stepping into the fullness of God’s promises. From the lessons of the wilderness to the call to “ari...

In this sermon from the “Tribulation” series, Pastor Shane Farmer explores Revelation 14:6-20 , showing how humanity’s obsession with self-rule is like drinking from a poisoned cup, leading to judgment and destruction. Babylon the Great is a symbol of this self-serving spirit, but God’s eternal Gospel offers a path back to Him. Pastor Shane challenges us to recognize the spirit of self-rule in our...

In this week’s message, Pastor Rebekah Layton dives into Revelation 14 and the powerful example of the 144,000—those who remain faithful to Jesus through great tribulation. Their lives remind us that persevering faith is not passive; it’s a daily, active pursuit of Christ. We examined what it means to truly believe , drawing from the Greek meaning of John 3:16 —a continual trust in Jesus. Through...

This sermon dives into Revelation 13 , where two beasts emerge—one symbolizing global political power led by the AntiChrist, and the other a false prophet who enforces deceptive worship. Together, they paint a sobering picture of spiritual warfare and end-time deception. We explore the meaning of the mark of the beast , a symbol of allegiance to the AntiChrist, and warn against the subtle compromi...

In this powerful and timely sermon, we dive into the striking imagery and sobering truths of Revelation 13:1-10 , exploring the rise of the beast and the deceptive power it wields in the end times. Drawing parallels from Daniel 7 , we examine the prophetic symbolism of the beast’s characteristics—speed, strength, and dominance—and how they point to a future global empire empowered by Satan himself...
