Impact Church Weekend Messages
Impact Church exists to make disciples who live and love like Jesus. Our goal is to engage, equip, and empower each person who walks through our doors to bring the gospel to their personal spheres of influence.

We make ourselves slaves to many things in life - from relationships and work to our schedule and addictions. The story of God's people and their deliverance from Egypt reminds us God has given us the Way out. We don't need to live as slaves to this world any longer!
Jesus followers have been empowered for mission. God has given you personal spheres of influence: your family, church, workplace, school campus, neighborhood, and more. You have access to a unique combination of people that nobody else does, and he’s calling you to make disciples who live and love like him. Are you making disciples everywhere you go?
To be like Jesus means being a servant of all. This isn’t easy in a culture of consumerism where we’re always catered to as the customer. While most expect to have everything done for them, we’re called to do things for others and to use what God has given us to build others up. How are you serving those around you?
It’s easy to notice the gap between the kind of community we see in the early church and what church life often looks like today. So how do we actually build the kind of Christian community we’d want to be part of? What does each of us need to bring to the body of Christ to help make that a reality?
How do others know we’re followers of Jesus? Some might say our biblical values, our politics, or even church attendance. But Jesus clearly tells us the world will know we’re his disciples when we love each other the way he loves us. The journey of discipleship isn’t meant to be walked alone. Engage in community today!
Impact's mission is to make disciples who live and love like Jesus. He's calling us to follow him every day, to emulate who he is and imitate what he does. To be a Christ-disciple means to become Christ-like. Are you more like him today than you were yesterday? Are you learning to live and love like Jesus?
Storms in life are unpredictable and inevitable, no matter how much we try to avoid them. When life gets overwhelming, it’s important to remember everything Jesus has already done and remind ourselves of what he’s called us to do. As long as he’s with us, we have nothing to fear. Keep moving forward!
Christmas is so much more than a holiday. It’s a chance to remember the good news of great joy that our Savior has come. No matter what we’ve done or what we’re going through, we have nothing to fear because God is with us. Merry Christmas!
Have you ever felt betrayed or been let down? Hurt makes us want to shut people out or retaliate, but God reminds us our bad situation isn’t always what it seems. He’s still at work in the middle of our pain and fear. Even betrayal can carry the hope of redemption when we trust his Plan.
God’s calling on our lives can feel overwhelming. Whether it’s sharing our faith, trusting Him in an uncertain situation, or stepping into a new place of service, it’s natural to worry about what might go wrong or to feel unqualified. Mary shows us what humble obedience looks like. She didn’t have all the answers but she trusted God, and her faith made room for His work to unfold.
Fear is everywhere. Anxiety disorders are the most common mental-health struggle in America, and many of us live with worries we can’t simply avoid, from health and finances to politics and personal disappointment. Fear steals our joy, robs us of strength, and often becomes a self-fulfilling trap. This Christmas season, let the story of Jesus remind us that those who fear God don’t need to fear disappointment or anyt...
Do our actions match our words? It’s one thing to tell the truth, but when our actions doesn’t line up with what we’ve said, our words lose weight. Over time, that inconsistency erodes the trust we’ve worked hard to build.
Can people take you at your word? Too often, we’re quick to give our word, but slow to keep it. As followers of Jesus, we’re called to a kind of integrity where our “yes” or “no” carries so much weight that swearing becomes unnecessary, because our character speaks louder than any oath we could take. People should trust what we say simply because of who we are.
Why do we lie? Ultimately deception is rooted in self interest. We lie to make people think we're something we’re not, and we lie to keep people from knowing who we really are. As a result, we're never really known or trusted and our lives become one big cover-up.
Everybody lies. From fake news to fake people, lying is so common in our world that it’s hard to know who to trust or what to believe anymore. And it all started with a snake in a garden. As Christians, we’re called to be people of truth, not just with our words but with our actions.
Life is short, and representing Christ matters. So how should we speak? What should we do? How do we share our faith well? In his final words to the Colossians, Paul gives powerful insight into how to be an effective witness for Christ.
The gospel changes how we relate with others, starting with our family. Headship means sacrificial service, submission means prioritizing the mission, and parenting means leading with grace. When our minds are set on things above, even our work, family, and hardships become opportunities to show the world who Jesus is.
Are you ready for change? The good news of Jesus transforms how we think, live and relate with others. He has stripped away our old lives of sin and selfishness and given us new life marked by holiness, forgiveness and love. Don’t let your new life in Christ be marked by the same old things. Out with the old, in with the new!
Jesus is enough. If we’re not careful, we can easily trade grace for judgment, and the gospel for self-made religion. We spend our lives trying to earn what Jesus has already freely given. Let’s leave behind pride, shame, and performance and come back to the good news that in Christ we're forgiven, free and fully accepted by God
The gospel is the best news we could ever receive. In Jesus, we have been given new life, true joy, and a reason to be thankful. His grace changes everything. The question is, are we actively experiencing it?

Saskia Inwood woke up one morning, knowing her life would never be the same. The night before, she learned the unimaginable – that the husband she knew in the light of day was a different person after dark. This season unpacks Saskia’s discovery of her husband’s secret life and her fight to bring him to justice. Along the way, we expose a crime that is just coming to light. This is also a story about the myth of the “perfect victim:” who gets believed, who gets doubted, and why. We follow Saskia as she works to reclaim her body, her voice, and her life.
