Joshua 13:1-7. Many would say that 13-24 are the boring parts of Joshua. Romans 15:4 says "For whatever was written in former days was written for our instruction, that through endurance and through the encouragement of the Scriptures we might have hope." God has a purpose even through the "boring" parts. Here, Joshua is older and yet his mission was not done yet. We may be old...

Joshua 12 is one of those chapters that when you see it, you tend to either skim over it or skip it all together due to the list. However, did you know that God has a purpose for everything that is in the Bible? Pastor Kyle takes us through Joshua chapter 12, the purpose of the list of 31 kings that are named one-by-one, and how that relates to biblical remembrance.

Pastor Kyle takes us through the conclusion of Joshua 11. In this passage, God is bringing it all together: the southern and northern battles. In doing this, God is showing His faithfulness in completing what He started many years prior to this. Because of this, we can trust God in His word, His truth, and His presence. And at the end of it all, we can look back and say "Oh, that's what Y...

Have you ever wanted to strengthen your relationship with God only to get hit with business and other distractions? Joshua just finished his mission in the Southern Region of Canaan. Now, God is commanding him to do the same in the Northern Region. Pastor Kyle walks us through Joshua's obedience in Joshua 11:1-15 and the obstacles that the enemy multiplies to try and stop him.

The end of Joshua 10, Joshua completely obeys what God wants him to do and where to go. He leads Israel on a battle led mission through the southern cities of Canaan. Pastor Kyle shows us what complete obedience, trusting God's power, persevering, and rest looks like through this passage.

In Joshua 10:16-28, 5 kings hid in a cave. They thought that they were safe. They thought that the darkness and secrecy would save them. Pastor Kyle walks us through several lessons that we can learn from this cave. What are you using as your hiding place? Is it hidden sin...anger...business...how about pride?

In Joshua 10:1-15, Joshua prays to God to stop the sun and moon. God does this not because Joshua is great but because Joshua prays a bold, faith-filled prayer. Pastor Kyle walks through this scene where the enemy tries to come together, Joshua prays, and God fights for His people. Are your prayers routine or bold?

In Joshua 9, there is deception, discernment, and difficulties. Pastor Kyle walks through this in this part of our "Following Faithfully" series. Joshua and the people are deceived but stay true to the oath that they made. The problem: they made the oath without praying about it first. What happens when we make decisions without praying about it first? What are the results? What should w...

Getting back to our series through the book of Joshua. Today, Pastor Kyle looks at Joshua 8, "The God Who Restores". In this passage, God speaks to Joshua, giving him a battle plan that isn't a miracle like Jericho but a military strategy. Joshua is obedient, God is faithful to His promise, but the ending of the chapter is not what we think...God \restores.

This is the third part of our 3-week Easter series looking at defining moments of Peter before and after the Resurrection of Jesus. This episode, Pastor Kyle goes through Peter's miraculous escape the night before his planned execution in Acts 12.

This is the 2nd part of the 3-part Easter series looking at the restoration of Peter. In this part, Pastor Kyle takes us back to the same area that Peter denied Jesus but this time Peter shows a boldness that only comes through the power of the Holy Spirit. In Acts 4:1-22, Peter goes from Broken to Bold.

In Matthew 26, we see how Peter denies Jesus three times. Pastor Kyle takes us through these three (3) denials this Easter, Jesus's work on the cross and the tomb, and how Jesus restores Peter three times on the beach.

We don't like to hear it, but our actions have consequences. When we sin against a Holy God, yes He will forgive us, but that doesn't mean we're clear of the consequences. In Joshua 7, Pastor Kyle takes us through the process of how God exposed Achan's sin, the anatomy of sin, Achan's confession and then God's divine justice.

In Joshua 6, God gave directions not to take certain items that were set apart for either destruction or for the Lord. Pastor Kyle takes us through Joshua 7:1-15 that talks of the dangers of keeping things hidden that God forbade. What things are you keeping hidden that God told you to let go of? Do you know the consequences of holding on to these things?

Joshua 6 continues the story of Rehab. In Chapter 2, the spies made a promise to save Rehab if she upheld her end. Here in Chapter 6, that promise is fulfilled. In this message, Pastor Kyle shows us what happens when, and how God keeps His promises and the rewards of obedient faith.

Joshua 6 shows us what it means to follow faithfully, even when God makes no sense. There are times when God gives us instructions or leads us down a certain path that doesn't make sense to us at that time. Like the people in Joshua 6, it didn't make sense at the time but afterwards, it made perfect sense. Pastor Kyle leads us through the instructions that God gave Joshua, the response, an...

Finishing chapter 5 in Joshua, Pastor Kyle leads us through verses 13-15 asking the question: Who's in Charge? Joshua is standing before the walls of Jericho, he has a divine confrontation which leads to a correction in his alignment. In faithfully following God, are you asking the right question?

Pastor Kyle walks us through Joshua 5:1-12, looking at what is needed for a spiritual upgrade in our lives. The people were just about to enter Jericho and God stopped them. God needed to restore and revive their hearts prior to going into battle. God may be slowing you down in order to give you a spiritual upgrade to prepare you for what is coming.

We all tend to remember certain things, either good or bad. As our lives go on, we start to forget those good and bad things. But what about when it comes to our faith? What happens when we forget the things that God has done? What happens we we forget God's mercies or the storms He got us through? In this Episode of our "Following Faithfully" series, Joshua 4 shows us how we can Fig...

Joshua 3 shows us what it means to have "Faith at the Edge". Episode 4 in our "Following Faithfully" series, Pastor Kyle walks us through the Israelites crossing the Jordan River. It's at this point that the river is flooding and raging in front of them. They are watching this and wondering how they're going to cross it. What they don't realize just yet, is that the...

Episode 3 in our "Following Faithfully" series through the book of Joshua. Here, Pastor Kyle reminds us through the story of Rehab in Joshua 2, that we should be obedient even when the path seems uncertain, that God can use unexpected people, and that God is stirring faith in the shadows before the miracle happens. If you feel that your past is too messy, that your reputation is too tarn...

Here is episode 2 in our 'Following Faithfully' series through the book of Joshua. Pastor Kyle reminds us that Joshua has been commanded by God to continue in the promise that was made to Moses to enter the promised land. In this passage, we see unity, readiness, and obedience from the people that God still wants us to have today. So when God says "It's time to move", are you...

The first episode of Season 2. Starting a new series through the book of Joshua titled "Following Faithfully". God gave Joshua the task of leading the people into the promised land after the passing of Moses. Knowing Joshua's heart, God reassured Joshua that He would be with him and never leave him just as He was with Moses. Because of this, God told Joshua to be strong and courageou...

Pastor Kyle brings an end of the year message that looks back over some of the 2025 messages about what church should be like, how we should be, and what to look out for as well as looking forward to 2026. The emphasis was allowing God to reignite that fire within us and giving us a new fire for Him.

While God's redemptive story begins in the Garden of Eden, there was a prophecy 700 years before the birth of Jesus. What happened around this prophecy in the book of Isaiah? What is the importance of King Ahaz to this story? Here is the untold story of Christmas that you don't normally hear.
