New North Church

Ever looked at the news, the city, or even your own life and wondered, “God, do You even care? Are You going to do something about all this?” This Sunday, Pastor Rob walked us through the book of Nahum, a hard but hopeful reminder that God is not blind to evil or indifferent to your pain. He sees, He remembers, and He will respond, but not always on our timetable.  Rob Hall July 16, 2025 The Book...

Where have we grown numb to injustice? It’s easy to get overwhelmed by headlines and scroll past suffering on our phones, especially when it doesn’t affect us directly, but in Pastor Rob’s Sunday message, we learn that the minor prophet Micah doesn’t let us off the hook easily. The prophet reminds us that God doesn’t just want church attendance, or empty religious rituals. God wants this: “To act...

This Sunday, Pastor Zohary Ross continued our journey through the Minor Prophets by studying the book of Hosea. God uses Hosea to remind us that no matter how far we may stray away from God, His love is constant and His restoration is available to all who repent and turn back to Him.  Zohary Ross June 29, 2025 The Book of Hosea Hope in the Dark www.newnorth.church

This Sunday, Guest Speaker and Reverend Eugene Cho continued our journey through the Minor Prophets with a powerful message from the book of Amos. In this convicting passage, God makes it clear that injustice grieves Him. It disturbs Him, and it should disturb us too. As believers, we don’t worship justice, we worship a JUST God, and we’re called to pursue justice through a lens of compassion.  Eu...

This Sunday, Pastor Rob continued our journey through the Minor Prophets with the book of Jonah. While often remembered as a Sunday School story about a big fish or a reluctant prophet, Jonah is ultimately about the relentless mercy and goodness of God. Jonah ran from God’s call—but he couldn’t outrun God’s grace. The same is true for us.  Rob Hall June 15, 2025 The Book of Jonah Hope in the Dark...

This Sunday, we had the privilege of hearing from Pastor David Thomas of Asbury University, who preached a powerful message from Psalm 126 on travailing prayer.

Each week, we’ll uncover a unique message from one of these twelve minor prophets and see how it still resonates with us today.

Drawing from Hebrews 12:1-3, Pastor McKenna Takach unpacks the powerful tension between joy and suffering.

Life is full of tensions—moments where two things that seem to be opposites are both true. The Bible is no different. It’s packed with mysteries that can stretch our understanding, like how Jesus is both fully God and fully human, or how God is both perfectly loving and perfectly just. These tensions aren’t contradictions; they’re invitations to a deeper faith. In this series, we’re diving into si...

The Holy Spirit is not just a force—He is a person who helps us know and follow Jesus. If you are a Christian, His presence already dwells in you.
