In this powerful Heart for the House message, Pastor Dustin reminds us that if God has done it before, He will do it again. From Nehemiah 4, we are called to remember the Lord and fight for our families, our homes, and the next generation. With one hand we build, and with the other we battle. The enemy fights to keep ruins as ruins—but we fight so ruins can become revival. WHAT WE’RE BUILDING • Strong, godly families • A generatio...

What if God wants to do it again—moving in power just as He did in the early church? In Acts 19:9–10 we read that “all the residents of Asia heard the word of the Lord.” What began in a lecture hall in Ephesus spread across an entire region. Revival did not stay small. It multiplied. In this message, Pastor Dustin calls us to believe for that same move of God in our generation. This message connects Scripture, prophetic invitatio...

In Week Two of our series “Do It Again,” Pastor Dustin delivers a compelling message on revival, rebuilding, and the unshakable truth that God is not done with us. Throughout history, God has moved in extraordinary ways—from the Great Awakening to the Azusa Street Revival—and this sermon reminds us that what God has done before, He can do again. Today, we look at the reality of the world around us, including the brokenness in Albu...

“I will build my church, and the gates of hell will not overcome it.” — Matthew 16:18 This week, Pastor Dustin opens the series with a powerful message reminding us that when God has moved before, we can trust Him to move again. Across every campus, we’ve witnessed salvation, growth, life-change, and a level of impact only God can produce. As we prepare for Heart for the House 2025, we continue believing for greater things still t...

In the closing message of our series on the life of David, Pastor Brandon Woodward—lead pastor of Union City Church in Washington, D.C. and brother to Pastor Dustin Woodward—brings a powerful and heartfelt word about what it truly means to be a person after God’s own heart. From David’s humble beginnings to his final days as king, this message traces the journey of a man who wasn’t defined by perfection but by pursuit. Even through...

In Week 7 of our Life of David series, Pastor Dustin Woodward brings a timely and challenging message titled “The Making of a Leader.” The call to follow Jesus is also the call to lead others toward Him. As Rick Warren said, “Every believer is a leader because every believer carries light in a dark world.” Through the story of David, we’re reminded that leadership is not defined by position or power—it’s shaped in the valleys, refi...

Today we welcome guest speaker Layla Nahavandi as she shares a powerful message titled “Citizens of Heaven.” In this sermon, Layla challenges us to remember that as followers of Jesus, we belong to a different kingdom—one not of this world. She reminds us that our true identity is not defined by earthly status or circumstance but by our citizenship in heaven. Through scripture and revelation, we learn that: 1.Citizens of Heaven h...

Pastor Dustin walks us through The Progression of Repentance — the journey David took from failure to forgiveness, and how God’s grace still meets us the same way today. Repentance isn’t about shame — it’s about restoration. It begins when we finally see what’s been hidden, when conviction draws us back, not pushes us away. The Four Stages of Repentance: Realization – God opens your eyes. (2 Samuel 12:7, Psalm 32:3–4) “Conviction...

Before David fell publicly, he drifted privately. His story reminds us that sin rarely happens in a single moment—it happens through a series of unchecked decisions, quiet compromises, and subtle desires that pull our hearts away from God. In Week 5 of The Life of David, Pastor Dustin Woodward takes us into one of the most pivotal chapters in David’s life: the moment temptation turned into tragedy. What began as a glance became de...

Pastor Chris Baldwin continues our series Life of David with a powerful message on the kind of friendships God uses to shape our future. In this fourth week, we move from David’s anointing as king (1 Samuel 16) and his victory over Goliath (1 Samuel 17) into one of the most meaningful relationships in Scripture — the covenant friendship between David and Jonathan (1 Samuel 18–23). A biblical covenant friendship is more than casual...

Sometimes God calls us long before He crowns us. In this message, Pastor Dustin unpacks the moment David spares Saul’s life in the cave of En Gedi (1 Samuel 24) and shows us why waiting on God’s timing is worth it. From the battlefield where David defeated Goliath to the hidden caves where he learned restraint, David’s story reminds us that promotion without preparation can destroy us, and that God tests the heart in secret before...

This week in The Life of David (The Making of a King), Pastor Dustin Woodward unpacks one of the most iconic stories in Scripture: David vs. Goliath. It’s more than history — it’s a picture of how God still calls ordinary people to step into extraordinary moments. David wasn’t looking for a spotlight. He was simply running an errand, delivering food to his brothers. But in the Valley of Elah, an ordinary assignment turned into an ...

Today we begin a brand new series: The Life of David (The Making of a King). Other than Jesus, no one in Scripture has more written about them than David — over 60 chapters, more than 1,000 mentions, and countless lessons about leadership, worship, and walking with God. In this opening message, “The Call of a King,” Pastor Dustin Woodward shows us how God’s call on David’s life reminds us of our own calling: Key Scriptures: 1 Sam...

In the final week of our Home Sweet Home series, Pastor Galen Woodward brings a powerful message titled “Fighting for Your Family.” From Nehemiah’s example of rebuilding the walls, we are reminded that families today must also rise up and fight — not with weapons, but with consistency, wisdom, and protection. Our homes are under pressure from culture, distractions, and spiritual attack, but God has called us to be faithful gatekeep...

Parenting is one of the greatest callings God entrusts to us — and also one of the most challenging. In Week 4 of our Home Sweet Home series, Pastor Dustin and Mandy Woodward teach on Godly Parenting, reminding us that raising children is not about perfection, but about faithfully stewarding the lives God has placed in our care. The Bible calls us to lead by example, embrace our responsibility, speak with intention, and trust God t...

Marriage is more than a contract — it’s a covenant established by God. In Week 3 of our Home Sweet Home series, Pastor Dustin and Mandy Woodward unpack what Scripture teaches about God’s design for marriage and how it shapes the strength of the family, the home, and even society itself. Drawing from Ephesians 5:22–31, this message reminds us that marriage exists to reflect the covenant love of Christ and the Church. It’s not about...

In a culture that often defines people by their relationship status, God reminds us of a better truth: your worth and identity come from Him alone. In Week 2 of our Home Sweet Home series, Pastor Dustin and Mandy share a timely message called “The Gift and Goals of Singleness.” Singleness is not a gap to be filled but a gift to be embraced — a season to walk in purity, pursue spiritual growth, and maximize your influence for the K...

Welcome to Week 1 of our brand-new sermon series, Home Sweet Home! In this series, we’re diving into God’s design for the family — marriage, children, parenting, singleness — and how every season of life can flourish when Jesus is at the center of our home. In today’s message, “A Christ-Centered Home,” Pastor Dustin unpacks the biblical blueprint for family, reminding us that the home is more than a physical place — it’s a sacred ...

Welcome to the final week of our Hidden Gems series! Today, Pastor Sarah from our Maui Campus brings a powerful and practical message titled "Committing to God’s Path" — a timely reminder that God’s promises are found when we trust His direction over our own understanding. Life is full of decisions. But when we commit our plans, steps, and motives to the Lord, Scripture tells us He will direct, watch over, and establish our path. ...

Welcome to Week 5 of our Hidden Gems series at Citizen Church! This week, Pastor Dustin brings a powerful and practical message titled "Fear of God vs. Fear of Man" — a word that speaks to all of us, no matter our age or season of life. We all wrestle with fear. But there’s one fear the Bible warns can trap us more than any other — the fear of man. It can rob us of boldness, delay our obedience, and cause us to live for approval i...
