The Chapel Fort Wayne

No subject connected with the Old Testament has been discussed more than the identity of the Suffering Servant. Never heard of him? Join us this Sunday as Pastor Brandon dives into the writings of a prophet who wrote about Jesus 700 years before he ever arrived.

There are debates all the time on who’s the G.O.A.T.: The Greatest Of All Time. Is it Jordan or Lebron? Ruth or Mantle? Brady or Manning? Obviously Manning! Join us this Sunday as Pastor Brandon shares a not-so-hidden Easter Egg in the book of Leviticus that actually points to Jesus being the goat.  

Have you ever wondered why people didn’t recognize Jesus as the Christ while he was right in front of them? The reason is that they could not identify the numerous “Easter Eggs” in the Old Testament that pointed to him suffering and dying on the cross! By “Easter Eggs,” we do not mean the multi-colored decorations scattered around the lawn for kids to retrieve, but rather the hidden messages in to...

God is constantly testing our faith. Each test is an opportunity for us to trust in God and to prove our faith to be genuine. This week, we will explore the ultimate test that Abraham faced in laying down his one and only son, Isaac. We encourage you to invite a friend or family member to join either online or in person this Sunday. 

In perhaps the most important chapter in the Old Testament, Abraham has an eternity-altering interaction with God that helps us know how to get right with God. This Sunday, join Pastor Mark as he discusses the righteous faith of the Patriarch.

There are some unique figures in the Bible that have great significance with little notoriety. Melchizedek is certainly one of them. Join us this Sunday as Pastor Brandon shares the immense significance of this enigma who happened to be a contemporary of Abraham.

Throughout the Bible, God made several covenants with mankind that are crucial for understanding the story of the Bible and God’s redemptive plan. Join us this Sunday as Pastor Brandon continues our series on The Patriarch as we discuss God’s covenant with Abraham to bless the nations through him.

When you think of the most influential people in the history of mankind, Abraham of Genesis is on the short list of those who have most significantly impacted the course of history. His legacy is defined by both faith and failure that have resulted in the blessings and conflicts we experience today. Join us for this Sunday as Pastor Brandon discusses how to navigate the very relevant implications...

 As the calendar resets, it’s a time to reflect on last year and think about the direction we’re heading.  You may be feeling stuck or discouraged in the situation you’re in, or feeling the shame of failed New Year’s resolutions in the past. In this Sunday’s message, online pastor Josh Lewis will look at the defining moment in time that divided Peter’s failure from his future. Join us in-person or...

Join us for this special family-style Christmas Eve service with carols, communion, and a special message for the kids.

The gospel is not only the good news of what Jesus has done but is meant to convey that we are to be a part of that good news to the world. Join us this Sunday as Pastor Brandon finishes our series on the gospel as he discusses living in the light.   

Join us this Saturday and Sunday for Christmas at the Chapel as we sing Christmas carols, witness live drama, and hear from Pastor Brandon about the promise of eternal life.

Even though we are confused about how it applies to our lives, a major part of the gospel is that God is able to do the impossible. Join us this Sunday as Pastor Brandon explores the story of Mary who was confronted with the God who can, will, and may.

Accepting gifts can be very difficult for us, especially as we get older. We can become prideful when someone offers to pick up the check or pay a bill of ours, determined to lean on our own self-sufficiency. This Sunday Pastor Brandon shares the good news that salvation is a gift that is going to be difficult for the self-sufficient or prideful to accept.

Humans are naturally acceptance magnets. We tend to gravitate toward those that make us feel good about ourselves and agonize over those that don’t accept us. But what about God? Do you think God accepts you? Join us this Sunday for one of the most vital pieces of the gospel as Pastor Brandon address our deep need for acceptance.

God loves the whole world! For some of us that concept seems unlikely and for others it’s an under-appreciated given. Yet when you look at the plan that God put into motion to show His love for the world, it should leave us convinced. This Sunday Pastor Brandon continues our series on “The Gospel” by reminding us that the good news begins with a loving God taking action. (We invite you to watch th...

The gospel is the good news of Jesus Christ. It is both simple enough to share with a child and profound enough to for the greatest minds to explore. We are to receive it, stand on it, share it, and be saved by it. But what is the gospel? This Sunday in the new worship center, Pastor Brandon will delve into the simplicity of the gospel as well as its many expressions that you may never have realiz...

As our series “Think” comes to an end, Pastor Brandon will share his realization that the more we think about what we think about most, the more we will realize that what we think about most is ourselves. Join us as he concludes our series by sharing that the correct biblical mindset is actually to think of ourselves less.

Gratitude is so critical to a healthy thought life – both modern science and Paul from the New Testament agree! But gratitude should not be a solo exercise – we need God and others to truly do gratitude right, even and especially in the hard times. This Sunday, Brandon Butz shares how we must think gratefully to combat our anxious thoughts – and how we do that might surprise you.

Broken machines can be fixed either through replacement parts or simply by being rewired. The same is certainly true with our minds. Join us this Sunday as Pastor Brandon shares the good news that rewiring our thinking is not only possible and necessary.

Did you know, we can go three weeks without food, three days without water, three minutes without oxygen – but we can’t even go three seconds without thinking. Our lives are always moving in the direction of our strongest thoughts. We invite you to join us on Sunday for the second part of our new series “Think”.  

Negative thoughts can have free reign in our minds; thoughts like anxiety, doubt, fear, insecurity, confusion, and unclarity is the norm. If left untended, these false and dangerous thoughts can lead us to a destination we don’t want to go. Join us this weekend as Pastor Brandon begins our next series “Think” and challenge us to identify the lies that we have come to believe and then to replace th...

Join us this weekend as Pastor Brandon finishes our series on “Growth Spurt” by discussing the one growth factor that we can’t control and we don’t know when it’s coming.

Just as injuries to the growth plate of a young person, if not treated properly, can interfere with healthy growth, our insecurity about our role in serving can stunt not only our growth but growth in the body of Christ. This Sunday Pastor Brandon will discuss how valuable you are to a growing and functioning church.
