What happens when God calls us to love the very people we would rather avoid? Jonah 1 is not just the story of a runaway prophet and a great fish. It is the searching story of a merciful God who speaks, sends, interrupts, exposes, confronts, and rescues rebels like us. Jonah knew the truth about God, but his heart was out of step with God’s heart for the nations. He was willing to receive mercy, b...

The greatest gift we can give one another is Jesus!

Have you ever wondered how you're supposed to use your freedom in Christ to serve one another? This sermon will help!

In this sermon from Ephesians 4:25–32, we consider what it means to live with curious, Christlike kindness toward one another. Because we belong to Christ and to one another, our relationships should be marked by truth, humility, grace, and forgiveness—not bitterness, gossip, slander, or suspicion. Paul shows us that anger must not become a weapon, our words must build up rather than tear down, an...

We begin our One Another series by looking at Hebrews 10:19-25 and asking how God moves us from superficial relationships to sacred ones. In a world marked by loneliness, isolation, and shallow connection, Scripture calls us first to consider Jesus, then to consider one another. Sacred relationships begin when we draw near to God, hold fast to our hope, and intentionally stir one another up to lov...

Big Question: Is suffering deforming or reforming you? And how do you know? Suffering is deforming you when: it shocks you, you reject Jesus, you to turn to sin, you're ashamed of Jesus, and/or you distrust Jesus. Suffering is reforming you when, by the grace of God: you are no longer surprised by it and still rejoice in Jesus, walk in holiness, glorify God, and entrust yourself to Him. Main P...

Keep up with our 1 Peter series here!

What shapes us will eventually come out of us, and in 1 Peter 3:8–22, Peter shows us that a life shaped by the gospel becomes a life of faithful witness. Peter calls believers to live with unity, compassion, humility, and love, not just for the health of the church, but also so the hope of Christ becomes visible to the watching world. Even when Christians suffer, face opposition, or feel the fear...

In 1 Peter 3:1–7, Peter gives a gospel-shaped vision for marriage that cuts against both ancient power structures and modern self-centeredness. He shows that wives are called to cultivate inward beauty rooted in hope in Christ, and husbands are called to lead like Jesus through understanding, honor, and deliberate care. This passage is often misunderstood, but Peter is not promoting oppression, pa...

In a world where authority is often questioned, goodness is misunderstood, and suffering feels meaningless, how are followers of Jesus supposed to live? In this message from 1 Peter 2:13–25, we’re reminded that our identity in Christ reshapes everything. Because we belong to Jesus, we live differently. We submit to authority with wisdom and trust, do good in a watching world, endure suffering with...

In this sermon, we walk through 1 Peter 1:22-2:12 and explore what happens when the gospel doesn’t just inform our lives but actually takes root in us. Peter shows us that the same Word that saved us is the Word that now shapes us, leading us to love deeply, hunger for God, and live differently in a watching world. This message is a call to move beyond surface-level faith into a life marked by sac...

What if everything about your life could change starting today? In this powerful message from 1 Peter 1:13-25, we discover how a living hope in Jesus transforms the way we think, live, and love. This isn’t about trying harder or being better. It’s about stepping into the life God has already secured for you. As you learn to set your hope fully on Christ, walk in true freedom from your past, and lo...

What kind of hope actually holds when life starts falling apart? In this message from 1 Peter 1:1-9, we explore the unshakable reality that Jesus Christ is our living hope. Not a fragile, wishful optimism, but a confident, resurrection-rooted hope that steadies us in suffering, secures our future, and anchors our identity as God’s people. Written to believers scattered, misunderstood, and under pr...

What does it actually mean to know God—not just know about Him, but to truly know Him? In this message, we walk through the entire book of Ezekiel and uncover the heartbeat behind it all: “Then they will know that I am the Lord.”  From a stunning vision of God’s glory to the sobering reality of spiritual drift, this sermon traces five movements that reveal who God is and what He’s doing in the wor...

In this passage from Ezekiel, God gives a powerful picture of His plan to redeem and restore His people. What was once divided will be made one. What was once broken will be healed. What was once scattered will be gathered again. Through the image of two sticks becoming one, God reveals His promise to unite His people under one King, establish an everlasting covenant of peace, and dwell with them...

In Ezekiel 37, the prophet is led into a valley filled with dry bones, a haunting picture of death, loss, and hopelessness. Yet in the middle of that valley, God asks a surprising question: “Can these bones live?” In this message, we walk through the powerful vision of the Valley of Dry Bones and what it reveals about God’s ability to bring life where there is none. Spoken to a people who felt for...

In Ezekiel 36:16-38, we see the whole story of Scripture come into focus from defilement and exile to cleansing, renewal, and new creation. God confronts the depth of His people’s sin and the way it distorted His holy name among the nations. Yet even in judgment, He reveals a deeper commitment: He will act for the sake of His name by restoring, cleansing, and transforming His people from the insid...

What happens when the leaders meant to protect God’s people start protecting themselves. In Ezekiel 34, God brings a covenant lawsuit against the “shepherds” of Israel. Kings, priests, prophets, and elders who were called to know, feed, and guard the flock had instead consumed it. They ruled with force. They neglected the weak. They drove people away. And in a stunning twist, the leaders who were...

In this sermon from Ezekiel 33, we explore how God calls His people to turn and live. Though judgment is real, God makes clear that He takes no pleasure in the death of the wicked but desires repentance that leads to life. The tragedy is not that God failed His people, but that they became apathetic, hearing the Word without doing it. This message calls us to refuse spiritual indifference, become...

Where false gospels promise peace and prosperity without truth, God calls His people to stand firm as Word-filled exiles who refuse comforting lies and proclaim Christ alone. In Ezekiel 13, the Lord exposes the danger of attaching His name to messages He never gave. The false prophets spoke confidently, quoted spiritual language, and promised peace, but their words flowed from their own desires ra...

What happens when God’s people keep the language of worship but slowly reshape who God is? In Ezekiel 8–11, God gives the prophet a devastating vision, not of pagan temples in Babylon, but of corruption and divided worship inside the temple itself. Idolatry hasn’t replaced worship. It has quietly redefined it. God is still named, but no longer trusted. Devotion continues, but hearts have been reor...

Big Idea Because Christ has spoken, suffered, and stood in our place, Word-filled exiles live and proclaim the Word as faithful watchmen to a watching world. Summary God calls Ezekiel to stand as a watchman, faithfully warning God’s people of real danger while trusting God with the response. In Ezekiel 3-5, we see that faithfulness means speaking God’s Word clearly, living lives that visibly suppo...

What do you do when God feels distant, the culture feels hostile, and obedience feels costly? In Ezekiel 1-3:15, God pulls back the curtain and shows His people something they desperately need to see. He is still on the throne. He is still speaking. And He is still sending His people into hard places with His Word and His Spirit. In this sermon, we walk with Ezekiel from the glory of God to the ca...

What does it look like to live faithfully when the world around you doesn’t share your values, hopes, or loves? In this message from Jeremiah 29, we explore what it means to live as Word-Filled Exiles. God’s people are not called to withdraw, revolt, or assimilate, but to build lives where He has sent them, seek the good of their cities, and pray faithfully for the people and places around them. T...

As we ended our Advent series, we turned to Psalm 42 and listened to the ache beneath our waiting. This sermon explores what it means to live with longing instead of silencing it, and how Scripture invites us to aim our thirst toward Jesus rather than relief, control, or answers. Psalm 42 gives language to weary souls who feel overwhelmed, questioned by fear, and worn down by waves that do not see...
