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...

What if your restlessness isn’t just about your schedule… but your trust?

In this episode of Monday Moments, we look at the story of manna in the wilderness and how Sabbath rest was never just about sleep or recovery—it was about trust. Trusting that God will provide. Trusting that we don’t have to hustle to hold everything together. Trusting that when we...

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 our hearts with God’s truth.

Episode Title: Trust, Identity, and the Gift We Keep Rejecting
Series: Reframing Rest
Speaker: Pastor Charlie Kim

In This Episode:
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 ide...

In This Episode:
Is God’s judgment something to fear… or something to trust?

In this week’s episode, 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.

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.

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 we don’t love Jesus most, we’ll al...

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 you're stu...

Is your faith growing — or stuck?

Drawing from Hebrews 5 and 6, we confront the temptation to soften the gospel to fit cultural expectations and highlight why understanding and practicing forgiveness is non-negotiable for t...

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.

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...

Hopelessness is a burden. There’s nothing like feeling the wind completely taken out of your sails. We all go through times when it feels like there’s no movement, but to feel that you will never again feel joy about life or look forward to tomorrow is a bleak and overwhelming heaviness.

Have you ever taken a look at your life and wondered how in the world God can transform you? We all experience that at some point or another in our lives. What can be particularly discouraging is not understanding how God changes us and how to recognize when He’s actually at work. We feel stuck and helpless. The good news is that God has made it very clear how He makes all things new. The question is whether or not we’re going to t...
