In part three of "Heaven", Pastor Jordan teaches us that we will each have fulfilling, joy-filled jobs (and more!) to do in Heaven on the New Earth based on what Go...

Love can be messier than we want it to be - especially if we put other things before God. He offers us His perfect love if only we're willing to receive it by faith. But in order for us to be thoroughly transformed by that love, we must be open to change so that it can work within us. In the finale of "What is Love?", Pastor Joe teaches us that it takes vulnerability and sacrifice to keep the other "loves"...

Being "in love" and having a romantic partner feels great - but what happens when we have to sacrifice for that person? What happens when we get to know the things about them we don't like so much?

Breakthrough looks different for everyone. Whether it be in our body, mind, relationships, or more, God wants to move in us so He can then move through us! But if we don't take time to get quiet and realize where we need breakthrough the most, we can force ourselves to stay stuck as we are. In the finale of "Breakthough", four speakers teach us how to discover different areas we may need God to create change in us so...

With all the differing opinions and viewpoints fighting for our attention in the world, becoming double-minded - or having a brain pulled in two different directions - can feel like a 'default' setting. Instead of remaining focused on what's most important in life, we can easily stray from God's plan for us. So how do we keep our brain in check? In part three of "BREAKTHROUGH", Pastor Joe teaches us ho...

When we need a physical breakthrough - healing in our body, the power to overcome an addiction, or self-discipline to live a pure life or take care of our bodies - we often want God to provide it through a single, miraculous event. But oftentimes He uses a transformative process that goes beyond just the physical to also transform our hearts and mind! In part two of "BREAKTHROUGH", Pastor Joe teaches us that God made our ...

What if we could be made completely new? In part one of "BREAKTHROUGH", Pastor Joe teaches us that accepting Jesus' sacrifice on the cross is the only way to truly have a new life. In order to transform from the inside out and f...

Difficult relationships are often one of the most complex and painful parts of life. Broken families, loss, anger, abandonment, and betrayal can all make us wonder... is there hope for our relationships? In part three of "Hope for All", Pastor Joe teaches us that hope for believers is not found in having perfect relationships or perfect families that never experience pain.

Statistics about increasing drug use, domestic violence, homelesness, and hunger are shocking and can make us ask... is there hope for our community? In part two of "Hope for All", Pastor Joe teaches us that although Jesus came to heal the lost and hurting 2,000 years ago, we, the modern church, are called to be His hands and feet to the people around us. By loving our family, friends, and neighbors well and sharing the G...

In part one of "Hope for All", Pastor Joe teaches us that although the world may seem overwhelmingly dark and full of uncertainty, the light of Jesus - as well as His light in us - can change everything.

Whether people are aware of it or not, there is a spiritual war going on in this world - and we are all a part of it. The battle between good and evil started long ago, but the good news is - it has already been won! In this standalone message, Pastor Jordan teaches us that although our adversary the devil works to separate us from God, we can find victory over his schemes by knowing and using the truth found in the Bible.
