That They May Be One - Ryan Rhoden 06.07.2025 45:44
In the final section of John 17, Jesus prays for all future believers—that we would be one, just as He and the Father are one. This kind of unity isn’t just relational—it’s missional. It reveals God’s love to the world. In this message, we explore what it means to be formed by His glory, anchored in His love, and united in purpose. Jesus’ prayer wasn’t that we would be taken out of the world—but t...
That They May Be Formed - Ryan Rhoden 29.06.2025 47:51
Jesus didn’t pray to take us out of the world, He prayed that we’d be formed for it. In this message, we explore the heart of John 17, where Jesus prays for His disciples to be anchored, sanctified, and sent. Not out of the world, but into it with His truth, His name, and His joy. Watch now and be encouraged to live out your faith in the middle of the mission.
That They May Know You - Andy Southmayd 22.06.2025 48:24
Andy invites us into the first movement of John 17, revealing the depth of His heart, mission, and fidelity to the Father’s will. Drawing from the imagery of a cluttered garage as a window into our lives, Andy walks us through how prayer opens us to God’s timing, character, and purpose. Jesus' prayer is not one of escape, but alignment.
A Prayer of Bold Faith - Ryan Rhoden 15.06.2025 47:42
What does it mean to pray with bold faith? In this teaching, we look at the early church in Acts and the example of Elijah in James 5. Bold prayers don’t begin with noise—they begin with listening. Join us as we explore what it means to be a Spirit-filled community marked by surrender, trust, and bold, effective prayer.ers
A Prayer of Ongoing Outpouring - Ryan Rhoden - LWRV 10.06.2025 48:36
When the Holy Spirit came at Pentecost, it wasn’t quiet. Wind filled the room. Fire rested on each person. It was powerful, personal, and a little messy. But it was more than a moment—it was the beginning of a movement. In Acts 2, we see what happens when heaven touches earth. The Spirit fills a room and fills individuals. He transforms hearts and empowers lives to make Jesus known. This outpourin...
A Prayer That Aligns Your Being - Ryan Rhoden - LWRV 01.06.2025 47:29
What kind of life are you building? Jesus invites us to build on the solid foundation of His words—but the structure of that life is shaped by prayer. In this message, we explore how prayer was the secret behind Jesus’ authority, power, and purpose—and how we’re called to the same rhythm. We’ll look at the Shema (Deuteronomy 6), the prayer that shaped a people, and discover how aligning our hearts...
Building Your Life on the Rock: Your Firm Foundation - Kim Butcher 25.05.2025 37:40
As we conclude our Sermon on the Mount series, Jesus leaves us with a striking image—two houses, two foundations, one storm. In Matthew 7:24-29, He makes it clear: it’s not just about hearing His words, but putting them into practice. Like deeply rooted trees that withstand the fiercest winds, our lives can remain steady when anchored in Him. This message is an invitation to examine what your life...
Recognizing the Road You're On: The Narrow Way - Ryan Rhoden 18.05.2025 43:33
In this teaching, we sat with one of Jesus’ most sobering teachings from Matthew 7. As He brings the Sermon on the Mount toward its conclusion, Jesus exposes the false paths that take us where we want to go, the false voices that tell us what we want to hear, and the false fruit that impresses but lacks substance. His words are a call to examine the real foundation of our lives and what we’re trul...
Praying With Resilience: Ask, Seek, Knock - Andy Southmayd 11.05.2025 52:05
In Matthew 7, His words ask, seek, knock aren’t just commands to be spiritual go-getters; they’re invitations to dependence, persistence, and vulnerability with a good Father who knows what we need. Whether we’re standing in wide-open spaces of clarity or squeezed in the tight canyons of disappointment, Jesus teaches us a way of prayer that forms resilience. Together, we’ll explore how persistent...
Exposing Self-Deception: The Fight for Resilient Discipleship - Ryan Rhoden 04.05.2025 48:47
Resilient discipleship begins with radical honesty . Not performance, not projection, but a courageous look at what we’re actually serving and how we’re actually living. Self-deception is subtle. It tells us we’re fine while we slowly drift. It normalizes compromise, numbs conviction, and slowly pulls our hearts away from the Kingdom Jesus calls us to seek first. In Matthew 6:19–24, Jesus invites...
Seeing Without Judgement: The Practice of Mercy - Drew Berryessa 27.04.2025 57:53
In this teaching, we’ll sit with Jesus’ words from Matthew 7, “Do not judge, or you too will be judged.” Not as a rule to keep but as a mirror to hold. What does it look like to let grace do its deep work in us first? To be people who lead with mercy, not judgment? There’s something sacred about the moment we realize the real work isn’t out there, it’s within. Jesus isn’t calling us to avoid truth...
It Is Finished: The Cosmic Victory of the Resurrection - Drew Berryessa 21.04.2025 51:48
This Easter message goes way beyond just “Jesus died for your sins.” Drew takes us on a journey from the garden to the cross to the resurrection, tracing the thread of God’s promise to redeem us from the very beginning. It’s full of those “wait… what?!” moments in Scripture that make you realize this story is way bigger than we’ve often been told. Jesus crushed the head of the serpent. He reversed...
Letting Go of Worry: What To Do with Our Anxiety - Kate Rhoden 13.04.2025 37:26
In this teaching from Matthew 6:25 to 34, we explore Jesus’ invitation to let go of anxiety and step into the freedom of trust. Worry is real. It affects our bodies, our thoughts, and our sense of identity. But Jesus doesn’t shame us for feeling it. Instead, He offers an upgrade. Through birds, flowers, and the reminder that our Father sees and knows our needs, Jesus invites us into a life rooted...
Seeking the Secret Place: When God is Enough - Ryan Rhoden 06.04.2025 31:22
In Matthew 6, Jesus shifts us from the public performance of religion to the secret places where real transformation happens. Prayer, fasting, and forgiveness aren’t meant to impress others or manipulate God. They are invitations into intimacy with a Father who sees in secret. In this section of the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus confronts how spiritual practices, when done with the wrong motives, can...
Loving Your Enemies: The Radical Heart of the Kingdom - Ryan Rhoden 01.04.2025 51:55
In this section of the Sermon on the Mount, we explore how Jesus’ words in Matthew 5:38–48 aren’t a list of rules to follow, but a vision for a life completely reshaped by love. Jesus flips everything we think we know about justice and power. In a world that demands retaliation, He teaches us to turn the other cheek, go the second mile, and love even our enemies. It’s not about surviving culture—i...
Giving in Secret: The Reward of Righteousness - Kim Butcher 23.03.2025 41:41
In this section of The Sermon on the Mount, Jesus addresses our motive for giving. Giving isn’t meant to be a performance for praise, rather a quiet overflow of our relationship with Him. The way of the Kingdom is upside down. It’s not about being seen, but being known by the Father who sees in secret. So the question is: Are we giving out of love or out of a need to be loved? Are we following Jes...
Honoring Covenants: Adultery, Divorce and Oaths - Ryan Rhoden 16.03.2025 1:07:28
In this section of the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus exposed the heart behind lust, adultery, divorce, and oaths. Lust isn’t just about what we see—it’s about what we cultivate in our hearts. It’s desire that takes and consumes instead of honors. When it comes to marriage, Jesus challenges the way people treated covenant like a contract they could break when it no longer served them. Jesus isn’t just...
Walking in Reconciliation: Hatred, Anger, Resentment - Ryan Rhoden 09.03.2025 48:10
Jesus isn’t just after our behavior, He’s after our hearts. In the Sermon on the Mount, He takes the Law beyond “Do not murder” and gets to the root of the issue—hatred, anger, resentment, and broken relationships. He shows us that the Kingdom way isn’t just about avoiding sin; it’s about confronting what’s beneath the surface before it destroys us and the people around us.
Living the Righteous Life: Fulfilled, Not Abolished - Ryan Rhoden 02.03.2025 42:25
In this message, we dive into Jesus’ Sermon on the Mount, where He declares, “I didn’t come to abolish the Law or the Prophets—I came to fulfill them.” What does that mean for us today? Jesus upgrades the Old Covenant, fulfilling it through His perfect life and death, freeing us from its burden (Heb. 8:13). From Moses on Mount Sinai to Jesus on the Mount, we see a shift from rules to a transformed...
Becoming Salt & Light: Your Life Matters - Kim Butcher 23.02.2025 35:07
Jesus calls us to be salt and light in the world—not someday, but right now. Just as salt preserves food and enhances flavor, we are meant to bring the goodness of God into the lives of those around us. Our lives have real value and purpose in bringing hope, truth, and life to our communities. And just like light helps guide the way in the darkness, we are meant to shine brightly, showing others t...
Embodying the Beatitudes: The Way of the Kingdom - Ryan Rhoden 16.02.2025 56:03
In the Sermon on the Mount , Jesus teaches what it looks like to live FROM the heart and INTO a very real, present, and available Kingdom that He came to show His followers. The life of the kingdom is principally (but not exclusively) spiritual - therefore, it has to be a matter of the heart before it can expand into a manifest reality through our day-to-day lives. Jesus is teaching us that w...
Appreciation Sunday - LWRV 09.02.2025 40:32
In this special gathering, we took time to honor and thank everyone who contributes to Living Waters—whether through time, talent, or treasure. It was a morning full of gratitude, celebration, and vision for the year ahead!
Walking in Your Inheritance - Ryan Rhoden 02.02.2025 50:03
As followers of Jesus, our lifestyle is not just a reflection of our beliefs—it is the evidence of our intimacy with the Holy Spirit and how we access and release our inheritance from our Father. We aren't just called to receive His Spirit but to steward His presence in our daily lives to leave an impact on those around us. What we do, how we live, and what we prioritize either aligns us with...
Identity Flows From Intimacy - Ryan Rhoden 26.01.2025 39:50
Identity is the natural outflow and expression of our intimacy with God. It begins with an intentional choice to invite Him daily into our reality —into the ordinary, messy, and beautiful moments of our lives. Through this daily practice, we discover a God of unfailing love , a good Father who neither despises us nor casts us aside. Instead, He lovingly enters our broken places, bringing restorati...
Rooted in our Identity in Christ - Ryan Rhoden 19.01.2025 44:58
When intimacy is the seed, identity becomes the visible and internal structure of our lives, like a tree growing from healthy roots. Who we believe we are shapes how we think about ourselves and, ultimately, how we interact with others.
