The wise men didn’t simply bring gifts, they modeled a kind of worship that still transforms lives today. These were not kings. They...

What if Philippians 4:13 doesn’t mean you can crush every goal, win every game, or magically fix bad decisions?

In this message, Pastor Jon Groves shows how rea...

“How do I stay grateful when life feels like a prison cell?”In Philippians 1, the apostle Paul writes from an actual Roman jail.

In this message, Pastor Jon Groves unpacks how to have joy in jail—how to stay grateful when your expec...
