Hill City Church Podcast

In a world obsessed with upgrades, achievements, and endless comparison, Jesus invites us into a different economy—one where true wealth isn’t measured in dollars. God offers us a better treasure—one that can’t rust or be stolen. In this message, we explore how contentment frees us from comparison, how gratitude interrupts the grind, and how generosity loosens the grip of greed. It’s time to trade...

Special guests Brook Mosser and Phil Comer of Intentional join us to share a message about raising children who love Jesus.

Just as a helmet protects your head in a crash, salvation protects your mind and heart in the battles of life. Through Ephesians 2, we discover what we’re saved from, by, through, and for. Our salvation gives us protection, perspective, and confidence to live courageously for Christ. Whether you’re discovering faith for the first time or being reminded of the joy of your salvation, this message wi...

Spiritual warfare is real—and it’s happening every day. Discover 5 subtle ways the enemy attacks your faith, and 5 powerful ways to fight back with the Shield of Faith. Title: Truth Series: Stand Firm Text: Ephesians 6:16 Speaker: Jake Wright

In Ephesians 6, Paul calls us to put on the “sandals of peace” — to be ready to move, not just defend. The Gospel isn’t meant to be stored away; it’s meant to be shared. This message challenges believers to stop standing on the sidelines, to take ground for the Kingdom, and to bring the good news of peace to a world still living in captivity.   Title: Sandals of Peace Series: Stand Firm Text: 1 Pe...

Speaker: Riley Smith

In this kickoff message of our Armor of God series, we explore what it means to stand firm in a spiritual battle many don’t even realize they’re in. The devil’s primary weapon is deception—and God’s first defense is truth. Discover how to identify the lies of the enemy, why truth is essential for spiritual victory, and how the “belt of truth” holds everything together in your faith. This is not a...

What does it take to go from resisting Jesus to radically living for Him? In this message, we explore the discipleship journey through the life of the Apostle Paul—once a violent persecutor of the church, later one of its greatest leaders. From pre-faith soil to fruit-bearing maturity, discover the stages of spiritual growth and how God meets us at every step. Whether you're just curious about fai...

From preaching the gospel and making disciples to planting churches and doing it again, this is about igniting a movement—not just growing a congregation. With a bold announcement about our next campus launch and a vision rooted in Scripture, we’re asking the question: What if God wants to use us to reach the next generation, transform cities, and multiply churches across our region? Join us as we...

If Jesus gave us one job…shouldn’t we know what it is? This week at Hill City Church, we’re kicking off our new series DNA by exploring the mission at the very heart of who we are: making disciples who follow Jesus with everything. In a world full of distractions and good intentions, it’s easy to lose sight of what really matters. Whether you’re new or have been around for years, this is your chan...

What does it mean to live a life of faith? In this sermon, we learn from Paul’s closing words in Galatians that true faith is not a fleeting feeling—it’s a lifelong commitment. Through seasons of silence, struggle, and growth, we are called to keep praying, keep planting, and keep trusting God to bring the harvest. As we wrap up our Galatians series, we’re challenged to examine our lives and ask:...

In our hyper-individualized American culture, Paul challenges us to think in a more communal way, specifically about sin. How do we deal not only with our own sins but also the sins in the lives of our Christian brothers and sisters? How should Christians go about confronting a believer about their sin? What does it look like to bear each other’s burdens? And how do we do so without becoming an en...

Some prisoners get so used to life behind bars that they choose to go back—even after they’ve been released . Paul writes to the Galatians with a similar warning: don’t return to the chains Jesus has already broken. In Christ, we’re not just freed from guilt, shame, and legalism—we’re freed for a life of love, purpose, and truth. It’s time to walk out of the prison, shake off the chains, and step...

What do Harriet Tubman, ancient covenants, and Paul's shocking allegory in Galatians 4 have in common? A powerful call to live free and bring others with you. Speaker: Jordan Carter Scripture: Galatians 4:21-31  

Pastoring is both beautiful and brutal. In this message from Galatians 4, we get a glimpse into the raw, personal heart of the Apostle Paul—a pastor who’s deeply burdened for people he loves yet sees them drifting from the gospel. If you’ve ever loved someone who walked away from Jesus, or if you’ve felt the pull to go back to the very things Christ set you free from, this sermon is for you. You’l...

In this message we’re looking at what Jesus left behind—and what He offers us now. In John 19, the Roman soldiers gambled for Jesus’ seamless tunic, His last remaining earthly possession. It’s a small detail, but it carries deep prophetic and personal meaning. What happened to that tunic? And what does it say about the inheritance we now have in Christ? From the Law as our spiritual babysitter to...

How do you relate to God? This question not only impacts your eternity but also your day-to-day life. In Galatians 3:15 –22, Paul contrasts two ways of approaching God: By works of the Law or by faith in the promise given to Abraham and fulfilled in Christ. Title: Law and Promise Text: Galatians 3:15 -20 Speaker: Jake Wright

In a world where Christian leaders seem to fall from grace with alarming regularity, what does Galatians 2 teach us about leadership, integrity, and staying true to the gospel? In this message, we examine one of the most intense confrontations in the New Testament—Paul publicly rebuking Peter—not over scandal or heresy, but a subtle drift that threatened the very heart of the gospel. What Peter di...

In Galatians 2, the Apostle Paul fights to ensure that the gospel isn’t lost, distorted, or withheld. This message explores how the good news of Jesus isn’t just for us—it’s meant to go through us, reaching those who haven’t yet heard. Just like a package that never reaches its destination, an undelivered gospel can’t change lives. Paul reminds us that we’re not just recipients of grace—we’re the...

When grace grabs hold, it doesn’t just forgive you, it changes your story. As we go through Galatians 1, you can discover how the gospel is meant to be experienced, not just believed.     Title: Called By Grace Text: Galatians 1:11-24 Speaker: Derek Murphy

In his letter to the Galatians, the Apostle Paul is confronting a crisis: the gospel of Jesus Christ was being replaced with something “new and improved.” But any attempt to change the gospel only ruins it. We’ll uncover the simple, unchangeable truth of the original gospel—centered on who Jesus is, what He’s done, and how we receive Him. Don’t fall for a counterfeit. Discover why the real gospel...

This summer, we’re diving into the book of Galatians—a bold, urgent letter that calls us back to the heart of the gospel. In a world full of performance, pressure, and confusion. The letter to the Galatians reminds us that Jesus invites us to live in the freedom of the Spirit, not legalism. Discover what true gospel transformation looks like. Title: Overview and Reading Series: Galatians Text: Gal...

Conflict is inevitable—but how we respond reveals who we are becoming. Some of us attack head on, others avoid it altogether. But in Romans 12, Paul offers a third way: the way of Jesus. Instead of fighting fire with fire let’s fight with humility, empathy, and radical love. Whether you’ve burned bridges or buried hurt, this message offers a path forward—and shows us how to be peacemakers in a div...

Why do we go to church—really? On Mother’s Day, one of the most attended Sundays of the year, we explore a deeper purpose behind gathering together that goes beyond tradition or guilt. From Hebrews 10, we unpack how church isn’t just an event, but a community of encouragement, built by Jesus himself. Through faith, hope, and love, we respond to the gospel—not alone, but side-by-side. Church isn’t...

In a divided world, what does it look like to live with unity? This message explores how humility, gentleness, patience, and bearing with one another in love can shape a community that reflects the heart of Jesus. We aren’t just called to believe—we’re called to belong. Discover how you can be part of something greater by walking in unity with others and with God.
