What if rest wasn’t just about recharging... but about becoming ready to heal others?

In this week’s episode, Pastor James dives deep into the story of the Good Samaritan to explore how rest and compassion are intimately connected. You’ll learn why biblical rest creates margin for ministry—and how Jesus uses oil, wine, and bandages to show us what healing love looks like.

Whether you’re a lifelong believer or just exploring faith, th...

Episode Title: The Test Of Rest
Series: Reframing Rest
Speaker: Pastor Dennis Gallaher

Main Idea:

True rest begins with trust.
We struggle to embrace rest because we don’t fully trust that God will provide, protect, or come through. Sabbath isn’t just about stopping—it’s about surrendering. It’s a test of trust that reminds us: God is enough, and we don’t have to hold everything together.

In This Message:

What if your rest...

Episode Title: When Rest Becomes Resistance
Series: Reframing Rest
Speaker: Pastor James Gallaher

In This Episode:
What if rest isn’t just for recovery—but for remembering?
In Part 2 of Reframing Rest, Pastor Dennis takes us deeper into the biblical concept of Sabbath—not as a break from life, but as a bold resistance to the world’s lies. In a culture obsessed with hustle, status, and distraction, Sabbath realigns ou...

Why do we resist rest?

In this episode, Pastor Charlie unpacks the biblical rhythm of Sabbath—and why we so often fight the very thing our souls are starving for. Rest isn’t laziness. It’s worship. And it’s not a reward for being productive—it’s a rhythm that reclaims our peace, trust, and identity.

📖 In This Episode:

  • Why God rested even though He wasn’t tired
  • How Sabbath reorients our identity in Christ
  • The dangers of hustle cultu...

Is God’s judgment something to fear… or something to trust?

In this week’s message, Pastor James challenges common assumptions about final judgment—and invites us to see it not as a threat, but as a promise. When we understand judgment through the lens of God's justice, we realize: He’s not just cleaning house—He’s setting things right.

Main Idea:
God’s final judgment isn’t just about wrath—it’s about res...

Episode Title: The Antidote To Anxiety
Series: Core Christianity
Speaker: Pastor Dennis Gallaher

In This Episode:
Anxiety is one of the most normalized struggles in our culture—even inside the Church. But Scripture gives us a better way. In this message, Pastor Dennis walks through Philippians 4 to show how a lifestyle of gratitude doesn’t just lift our mood—it disarms worry and unlocks peace. If anxiety has become a fam...

Episode Title: Extending Hands
Series: Core Christianity – Part 5
Speaker: Pastor James Gallaher

In This Episode:
The laying on of hands isn’t just for pastors. It’s a core part of how the Church functions—with healing, blessing, affirmation, and commissioning. But somewhere along the way, we outsourced it to the “professionals.” This message reclaims the simplicity, humility, and spiritual power of this biblical act—...

Title: The Gravity Of The Soul
Series: Core Christianity – Part 4
Speaker: Pastor Daniel

In This Episode:
It’s possible to believe the right things and still not follow Jesus. Why? Because we don’t follow what we know—we follow what we love. In this message, Pastor Daniel challenges us to examine our deepest affections. From Peter’s reinstatement to the story of the prodigal son, we see that love determines direction. If...

Episode Title: Redigging the Wells of Worship
Series: Core Christianity – Part 3
Speaker: Pastor Dennis Gallaher

In This Episode:
Worship isn’t a genre. It’s a calling. In Part 3 of Core Christianity, we revisit one of the most essential—but misunderstood—foundations of our faith: worship. Through the story of Isaac in Genesis 26 and the Old Testament tabernacle model, we discover that worship is what we were made for. L...

Why do we keep confessing the same sin over and over — but never seem to change?
In this powerful episode from our Core Christianity series, we unpack Hebrews 6 and examine what true repentance really means. Most of us know how to apologize to God. But confession without repentance just leads to more of the same.
Real change comes not from trying harder, but from turning to God with a broken and contrite heart.
Whether ...

In the first message of the Core Christianity series, Pastor James addresses a growing issue in the church — believers remaining spiritually immature and not moving beyond the elementary teachings of the faith. Drawing from Hebrews 5 and 6, he explains that many Christians haven't fully grasped even the foundational principles, which hinders both personal growth and effective discipleship. The sermon zeroes in on one foundatio...

What if the thing you've been chasing your whole life—success, approval, control—isn’t what your heart actually needs?

What if the key to your spiritual growth isn’t addition—but subtraction? In this message, we explore John 15:2, where Jesus teaches that God prunes every branch that bears fruit so it can bear even more. That pruning process is painful—it costs more than we expect. But what we let go of in obedience makes room for a legacy that outlives us.

We all want to make a difference, but what if our striving is getting in the way? The key to a lasting impact isn’t working harder—it’s becoming more humble. In this episode, we explore how true humility, rooted in experiencing God’s love, naturally leads to a life of sacrifice, service, and discipleship. When we empty ourselves of pride, striving, and insecurity—just as Jesus modeled in Philippians 2 and John 13—we step into the k...

Nobody likes to fail — it’s one of our greatest fears. Yet, in our broken world, failure is also one of our most common experiences. At some point, we all stumble — whether it’s in a new job, a moral struggle, a friendship, marriage, or raising our kids. And when we fail, it can feel heavy, even final. We start to wear it as a label: bad parent, bad spouse, bad employee, bad Christian. But what if failure isn’t the end of your stor...
