In Week 3 of Rhythms, “Rhythm of Repentance,” Pastor Stevan explores Jesus’ story of the prodigal son in Luke 15 to show that repentance is more than guilt or regret—it’s a change of mind that leads to a change of direction.

In 'A Rhythm of Prayer', Pastor Stevan explores Jesus’ teaching in Luke 11, reminding us that prayer isn’t just an emergency response but a daily rhythm of relationship with our Heavenly Father.

Pastor Stevan continues the Church in Motion series with "This We Believe," exploring Acts 15:1–11 and the Jerusalem Council's declaration that salvation comes through the undeserved grace of Jesus Christ alone.

In Acts 12, Pastor Stevan reminds us that the church's response to uncertainty has always been earnest prayer—not because we know what God will do, but because we know who He is.

Have you ever quietly decided someone was too far gone? Too much baggage, too much history, too hostile to ever change? We've all written someone off — but Acts 9 tells the story of a man the entire early church had already given up on. And Jesus showed up anyway.

Pastor Stevan reflects on Acts 6–7 and the recent Wesleyan General Conference, reminding the church that healthy churches live in the tension between Spirit and structure.

In this message from the “Church in Motion” series, Pastor Angel explores Acts 6:1–7 and reminds the church that growth happens when everyone embraces their role in serving.

In this week’s Church in Motion series message, Pastor Stevan explores Acts 5 and reminds us that the church stays alive and active when ordinary people carry the extraordinary presence of Jesus into everyday spaces.

This message challenges us to stop str...

Pastor Stevan launches the Church in Motion series with a powerful reminder from Acts 1 that the mission of God doesn’t begin with our effort, but with the work of the Holy Spirit within us .

Pastor Stevan shares in “Alive to Live,” the Easter message at Hyde Wesleyan Church and the conclusion to the Flavor series, that the resurrection of Jesus (Luke 24:1–9) proves we are not merely broken but spiritually dead—unable to fix ourselves. He emphasizes that Jesus didn’t come to make bad people better, but to bring dead people to life, offering new life through connection to Him. This East...
