This Father’s Day, Pastor Brandon continued our series on Judges with a challenge to be stronger than Samson, not in physical strength, but in character, conviction, and obedience to God. Samson’s life reminds us that true strength is found in surrendering to God and living faithfully according to His calling.

In this message from Judges, Pastor Brandon unpacks Samson's origin story and the truth that God often starts His greatest work in barren places.

Pastor Brandon closed out the story of Gideon with a powerful reminder: Sometimes the biggest battle we face isn’t around us, it’s within us. Fear. Pride. Doubt. Insecurity. Temptation. The inner battles we fight can become the very thing keeping us from fully trusting God. But God didn’t call Gideon because he was fearless. He called him because He was faithful. And the same is true for us.

On Mother’s Day, Pastor Brandon shared a powerful message titled “Fight to Live in the Favor of God.” We don’t drift into God’s favor, we fight for it. Not by striving in our own strength, but by choosing obedience, humility, and faith in every season of life. Favor isn’t just something we receive, it’s a life we protect and walk in daily.

Gideon week 2 with Pastor Brandon dives into something every person faces: fear. Looking at Gideon’s story, this message reminds us that even when fear feels loud, God is still trustworthy. If you’ve ever felt unsure, overwhelmed, or like you’re not enough, this message will encourage you to move forward anyway and trust that God is with you every step of the way.

In Week 6 of the Judges series, Pastor Brandon begins the story of Gideon in Judges 6 and reminds us that there is always a battle before the battle.

Victory begins when we encounter God’s presence...

On Easter weekend, Pastor Brandon showed us that our risen Lord and Savior meets us right where we are. From fear and confusion to doubt, discouragement, and shame, the first disciples experienced intense emotions after the crucifixion. But Jesus met each of them personally and invited them to believe. The Resurrection isn’t just something we celebrate; it’s an opportunity to be honest about where...

In this message, guest speaker Dustin Woodward walks through the baptism of Jesus and what it reveals about how we’re meant to live. Before Jesus ever performed a miracle or began His ministry, God spoke over Him, “This is my Son, whom I love; with Him I am well pleased.” His identity and approval were already established. So often, we live trying to earn God’s approval through what we do. But thi...

In Week 3 of our Judges series, Pastor Brandon walks through what it looks like to fight the right enemy. So often, we find ourselves battling people or circumstances, but Scripture shows us that the real fight is deeper than what we can see. When we recognize where the true battle lies, it changes how we respond and how we live. This message is a reminder that God has given us everything we need...

In Week 2 of our Judges series, Pastor Brandon looks at the story of Israel’s first judge, Othniel, in the Book of Judges. Though his story is brief, it reveals a powerful truth: the victory didn’t come from Othniel’s strength, it came from the power of the Holy Spirit working through him. Just as the Spirit empowered Othniel to lead and bring deliverance to Israel, the Holy Spirit is still at wor...

This message is both encou...

He speaks honestly to the real pressures, pa...

This week, Pastor Brandon spoke on Covenant Focus—learning to recognize the little things in your relationship before they quietly turn into bigger problems.
