What Jesus Said About Money Might Surprise You — because according to Jesus, the way you handle money does more than reveal your priorities. It actually shapes your heart. Have you ever wondered what Jesus really taught about money, giving, and generosity? Or struggled with the tension between wanting to trust God and worrying about whether you'll have enough? Money is something we all think...

The Missing Piece of Your Spiritual Growth might not be another Bible study, another sermon, or more time spent learning about God. What if the missing piece is something you've been overlooking? Have you ever felt spiritually stuck, even though you're doing all the right things? You're attending church, learning about Jesus, and trying to grow in your faith, but something still fee...

Why You're Not Growing Spiritually (Even though you're trying) — Have you ever felt like you're doing everything right in your faith, but you're still not growing? You're going to church, reading the Bible, listening to messages, and trying to follow Jesus. But something feels stuck. You're learning more about God, yet you're not experiencing the spiritual growth...

Why Going to Church Matters More Than You Think — because going to church isn't just about attending a Sunday service. It's about building a stronger faith, putting God first, and creating habits that can change the direction of your life. Have you ever wondered if going to church every Sunday really makes a difference? With busy schedules, family commitments, work, and everything else c...

Take Another Lap — what do you do when you’ve taken a step of faith, but nothing seems to change? When prayers feel unanswered and obstacles remain, how do you keep trusting God? In this message from Journey Church, we explore Joshua and the walls of Jericho in Joshua 6. For six days, the Israelites kept walking without seeing the walls move. Their story reminds you that the first step takes coura...

How to trust God when you don't know what's next can feel especially difficult when life isn’t going according to plan. You want clarity. You want answers. You want to know how everything is going to work out—but sometimes, God doesn’t show you what’s next. So how do you trust Him when you can’t see the way forward? In this message, we look at what it means to trust God in seasons of unc...

The Kind of Church Our Communities Are Waiting For asks a bigger question than whether church still matters: What kind of church does your community actually need? People around you are searching for hope, real friendships, and a sense of purpose. And while many may feel disconnected from church, that doesn’t mean they’ve stopped searching for something more. In this message, guest speaker Sean Ba...

Becoming Outward-Facing means learning to notice the people you might naturally overlook. If you want to become more like Jesus, that includes becoming aware of the people around you—even those who think, live, believe, or act differently than you. We all have biases and blind spots. The question is what we do with them. Throughout the book of Acts, we see God repeatedly bringing outsiders into Hi...

Becoming Others-Focused is one of the simplest ways to grow closer to God. Jesus connected loving God with loving your neighbor—and when you focus on the people around you, something changes in you too. Sometimes we make following Jesus more complicated than it needs to be. We study more, listen to more messages, and try harder to get everything right. Those things can be good, but Jesus gave us a...

Becoming Jesus-Centered means more than going to church, reading your Bible, praying, or trying harder. Those things matter—but you can do all the “right” things and still wonder, *Why don’t I feel closer to God?* Jesus gives us a surprisingly simple answer in John 14:5–9: if you want to know God, get to know Jesus. But knowing about Jesus isn’t the same as knowing Him. In this message, we explore...

A New Foundation | Have your past failures become the foundation of how you see yourself?

In Week 3 of our Fixer Upper series, we explore the difference between guilt and shame—and why Jesus doesn't...

Taking Off The Weight | What if the weight you've been carrying isn't stress or exhaustion—but guilt?

Is Your Basement Flooded? Maybe not literally—but what if the stress, anxiety, anger, fear, or exhaustion you're experiencing is a sign that something deeper is happening beneath the surface?

Let's Pray Together | What if one of the most powerful prayers you could pray isn't about your own needs? In this message from Matthew 9:35–38, we discover the surprising prayer Jesus asked His followers to pray—and why it's still one of the most important prayers we can pray today. We all come to God hoping to see Him move. Maybe you're praying for healing, direction, a breakt...

His Big Story is the story every one of us is invited into. It’s easy to believe your life is too ordinary to matter, but what if God is weaving your story into something far bigger than you can see?

Be The Church FOR Everybody | Have you ever felt like church wasn't meant for people like you? Maybe it seemed confusing, exclusive, or designed for people who already had everything figured out. But what if Jesus intended something different? In this message, we explore a truth that has shaped Journey Church from the very beginning: the church isn't just for church people. The church is...

The Steps You Take can shape someone else's story more than you realize. Every act of kindness, every invitation, every moment of serving, and every step of faith has the potential to point someone toward the grace of Jesus. In this message from Ephesians 2:8–10, we discover that following Jesus isn't just about receiving God's grace—it's about living with purpose. You were cre...

Why It's Worth It is a question every follower of Jesus eventually asks. When serving feels exhausting, change feels constant, and the mission gets difficult, how do you keep going? In this message, we discover the deeper reason it's worth continuing to invest your life in what God is doing. The apostle Paul faced challenge after challenge, yet he never lost sight of what motivated him....

Finding Your Place | What’s the biggest problem in your life right now? Maybe it’s stress, relationships, money, purpose, anxiety, or feeling stuck. We all have problems—but what if the problem you’re devoted to solving is shaping the kind of life you live? In this message from our Losing Religion series, we explore the mission Jesus gave His followers after His resurrection—and how finding your p...

Letting Go of Loopholes | Have you ever looked for a loophole? A way to justify what you want, avoid what’s hard, or explain away what you know is right? We all do it—and it impacts our relationships, our choices, and even our faith. In this message from our Losing Religion series, we explore the powerful new command Jesus gave His followers: “Love one another as I have loved you.” And when you re...

All Mixed Up | Have you ever wondered if you’re really good with God? Maybe you’ve felt close to Him one moment—and uncertain the next. Maybe faith has started feeling more like pressure, guilt, or performance than a real relationship. In this message from our Losing Religion series, we explore how many people unknowingly mix old religious thinking with the new way Jesus introduced. And when that...

Out With the Old | Have you ever felt like you were slowly losing your faith? Maybe not because you wanted to walk away from God—but because disappointment, hurt, doubt, or religious pressure made faith feel exhausting instead of personal. In this message, we explore why Jesus didn’t come to make religion better—He came to remove the barriers keeping people from a real relationship with Him. Looki...

Life can feel confusing when your heart is heavy and the world feels divided. You can be deeply burdened by what’s broken around you and still choose gratitude for what God is doing in the middle of it. In this message, we explore what breaks God’s heart, what should break ours, and what it looks like to follow Jesus in a world full of fear, division, and noise. If you’ve ever felt discouraged by...

In Luke 23, Jesus does the unthinkable. While suffering on the cross, He forgives the very people who mocked, rejected, and crucified Him. His followers watched Him live out everything He had ever taught about mercy, love, and forgiveness—even in His final moments. The same invitation is in front of you. Sometimes the biggest breakthrough in your faith is not learning more about Jesus, but finally...
