Follow the King

Christmas isn’t just the story of a baby in a manger. It’s the story of a God who refused to give up on Eden. In Eden, we lost access to the Tree of Life. In the temple, we only saw glimpses of it. At the Cross, the true Tree of Life hung on a tree of death. And in the New Creation, the Tree of Life stands at the center of the world Jesus will restore. This message walks through the entire story—f...

Ever considered how the story of Jacob and Esau points us toward Advent? The older should have been chosen—but wasn’t. The younger should have been rejected—but wasn’t. The betrayed should have been bitter—but wasn’t. The offended should have struck back—but instead embraced. It’s the gospel in miniature: the God who blesses where we least expect it, the God who forgives what we cannot fix, and th...

Some people talk as if there are two versions of following Jesus: 👉 Christians 👉 Disciples But Jesus never separated the two. He simply offered a choice. "Whoever wants to save their life..." or "Whoever wants to be My disciple—which will cost you your life." The choice is yours.

“Who do you say Jesus is?” In Mark 8, Peter declares Jesus is the Messiah—the King. Not just a teacher. Not a mascot. Not a safety net. The One who conquers sin, death, and hell. This week we looked at why that confession still changes everything— because when we see Jesus clearly as King, it reshapes how we live, how we love, and who we become.

What does it really mean to belong to a church family? In Acts 2, we see a Spirit-filled community shaped by worship, growth, unity, service, and mission. This message unpacks PCC’s Covenant Commitment—a call to depend on King Jesus and one another as we live for His Kingdom together.

Faith doesn’t grow by accident. It’s formed through hearts that listen, love, teach, and remember. In this message, parents and families are challenged to see discipleship as a daily calling—not just a Sunday activity. When our homes reflect the love and presence of Jesus, the next generation learns what it truly means to follow Him. #FaithFamily #Deuteronomy6 #ParentingWithPurpose #GenerationalFa...

Today we saw how even the numbers preach the gospel: 5 + 2 = 12 (Jesus feeds the 5,000 — Israel satisfied). 7 → 7 with 4,000 (Jesus feeds the Gentiles — the nations satisfied). From Israel to the nations, King Jesus is more than enough to fill what we empty and meet every need. 🍞✝️ And just like the blind man who finally saw clearly, may we see Jesus for who He truly is — the Bread of Life for al...

✨ Today was a special day in the life of our faith family as we ordained deacons at PCC. But the message wasn’t just for them—it was for all of us. Every Christian is called to serve. 🙌 Every Christian should aim to qualify. 💡 Every Christian must keep their eyes on Jesus. 👀✝️ Leadership in the church is never about recognition—it’s about helping others remember Jesus, the greatest Servant of...

🌊 Storms in life will come. What matters is who shows up in the storm. This week’s message reminds us that the greatest gift isn’t the absence of storms but the presence of the I AM. When the disciples faced the wind and waves, they discovered something greater than calm seas: they discovered the glory of Jesus. 🙌 Watch the full message here and be encouraged to see His glory in your storm. #The...

What do you do when Jesus doesn’t meet your expectations? 🤔 John the Baptist—the one who introduced Jesus as the Lamb of God 🕊️—sat in prison wondering, “Are You really the One?” Sometimes our prayers don’t get answered the way we hope. 💔 The sickness lingers. The relationship doesn’t heal. The road gets harder. But Jesus reminds us: He came to bring freedom from sin ⛓️✝️ and life with Him—not j...

🍞🐟 What’s for lunch? In Mark 6, one boy gave his small lunch to Jesus—and watched it feed thousands. This Family Sunday we learned: 
1️⃣ Jesus prepares and provides so we can care for others.
2️⃣ Following Jesus may leave us tired, but it’s where miracles happen.
3️⃣ Jesus can multiply anything we place in His hands. 💡 So the question is: what do you need to place in Jesus’ hands today? #PCC #F...

Have you ever felt unqualified for what God was asking you to do? 🙋🏼‍♂️ The disciples knew that feeling well. Most of them were teenagers, brand-new to following Jesus—yet He sent them out to proclaim that the Kingdom of God had come near. 👑 Jesus reminded them (and us) that the mission doesn’t depend on our strength, but on His presence. He calls us to be with Him, walk together, and live open...

💭 How often do we put God in a box? 📖 In Nazareth, the people who knew Jesus best rejected Him. They couldn’t see the King—only the kid. The Spirit still wants to reveal more of Jesus to us. But too often, instead of listening, we dismiss, criticize, or react harshly when Jesus is spoken of in ways that stretch our comfort. What if the very thing we’re stumbling over is the very thing that could...

💧 You can scrub, work, and try your hardest… but you can’t wash away the stain of sin. Zechariah saw Israel’s high priest standing before God, not in spotless white—but in filthy garments. That’s how God sees every one of us apart from Jesus. But here’s the good news: Jesus took our filthy garments, wore them to the cross, and gave us His robe of righteousness in exchange. Now, because of His sac...

We all know the story of Zacchaeus—the “wee little man” who climbed a tree to see Jesus. But what if there was more to the story? Zacchaeus wanted to see Jesus from a tree, but Jesus wanted Zacchaeus—and the religious leaders—to see Him from the Old Testament: as Yahweh in the flesh. This week’s message uncovers rich theology, personal challenge, and an invitation to be seen, called, and changed b...

From storms and shame to silence and sorrow, the stories in the Gospel aren’t just history—they’re holy patterns. They show how Jesus works then and now: • Divine interruptions become identity moments • Fear gives way to peace • Brokenness is met with compassion • And what feels too late… is never too late for Jesus. So maybe the invitation from Jesus today isn’t just to believe once—but to keep w...

In Mark 5, a woman believed Jesus could heal her. But her healing didn’t come while she stayed at home believing. 🧎‍♀️ Her healing came when her faith moved her—through the crowd, to the hem of His garment. And Jesus didn’t say, “Your reach healed you.” He said: “Your faith has made you whole.” 📖 James says: Faith without works is dead. That’s not just theology. That’s this story. 🔥 Faith is ne...

He lived among the tombs. Naked. Violent. Possessed. Everyone had written him off as a lost cause. But Jesus crossed a stormy sea for one man. He cast out a legion of demons. He clothed him, restored him, and gave him… a story to tell. 💬 And that’s what Jesus still does. The Son of God became an outcast— so outcasts could become sons of God… and witnesses of His mercy. 🎥 This powerful message fr...

What if the storm in your life isn’t just chaos—but a classroom? What if the fear you feel is actually leading you to faith in the One who commands the storm? In this week’s message from Mark 4, we step into the boat with Jesus—and discover a Savior who doesn’t just calm storms… He confronts evil, reveals His presence, and awakens awe. 🗣️ Be encouraged. 🔥 Be challenged. 🌪️ And let the storm lead...

Have you ever prayed for God to show up big—and wondered why He didn’t?   Jesus says the kingdom doesn’t come all at once… it comes like a seed. 🌾    Quietly. Slowly. Powerfully. And far-reaching.   From hard ground to mustard seeds, from Isaiah’s vineyard to Ezekiel’s tree—this message of Jesus’ parables in Mark 4 will help you see how the gospel is planted in your story and how King Jesus is st...

😟 Ever worried you’ve committed “the unpardonable sin”? You’re not alone. This week, we explored one of the most sobering—and most misunderstood—statements in Scripture. 📖 But when we keep Jesus’ words in context, clarity rises above confusion. 
Jesus was speaking directly to religious leaders who had credited the work of the Holy Spirit to Satan. ⚠️ Their hard-hearted rejection of the Messiah w...

🚨 What if Revelation 20 isn’t just about future prophecy…but about what Jesus already accomplished? 🔗 Satan bound.
 💥 Demons cast out.
 🌱A kingdom spreading like a seed becoming a tree. In this week’s message, we saw how Jesus described a kingdom that grows slowly—like mustard seeds and leaven—and how His power to cast out demons shows the enemy's defeat is already in motion. So…
 ❓Will you l...

What is God’s name? Is it God? The LORD? Jehovah? Yahweh? And what does it really mean to take God’s name in vain?   While taking God’s name in vain can include what we say—it’s primarily about how we live.   This message will not only help inform us about the name of God—but also help inspire us to live as the people of God.   May we carry His name with reverence, with joy, and with a heart to re...

Before Jesus sent the disciples out to preach and heal, He called them to be with Him. 💬 Why? Because being with Jesus always comes before doing for Jesus. 🙏💥 In Mark 3, Jesus shows us the order of Kingdom living: 1️⃣ Alone with the Father 2️⃣ In community with Jesus 3️⃣ Sent on mission with purpose ⚡ When we are with Jesus: 💖 Our hearts are filled 📌 Our priorities are ordered 🎯 Our purpose...

🙋‍♂️ Ever had your motives questioned when you were just trying to help? Jesus did too. In Mark 3, He enters a synagogue, offers healing to a man with a shriveled hand—and exposes the hard hearts of those watching. 💔✋ 🔥 This message will challenge you to stop hiding your weakness and start bringing it to the only One who can heal it. Jesus still invites us to stretch out our hand—not our stren...
