The Point VA

We've all been tempted to take matters into our own hands. We've waited long enough. We've stayed silent long enough. We've given God plenty of time to come through and we feel he's let us down. In week two of our series, Triumph, Pastor Gabe teaches on the first temptation that Jesus faced in the wilderness, a temptation to prioritize his immediate physical need before the Word of God.

It's been said that pressure comes from a lack of preparation. In week one of our series, Triumph, Pastor Gabe begins teaching on the temptations of Jesus, and how Jesus faced his temptations fully prepared for victory. God wants us fully prepared for ours as well.

What you’re known for is likely reaching farther than you realize. The church of Thessalonica was known for their faith, love, and hope. In week 2 of our series, Faith, Love, Hope, Pastor Gabe teaches on why their love was so extraordinary... it was a love that labored to the point of exhaustion.

Teenagers are often critical or egocentric. But aren't we all a little like that too? The younger generation needs an older generation who is emotionally mature enough to lead them towards growth. In the last week of our series, Em...
