What does it really mean to worship wisely?
In Matthew 2, the Wise Men show us that worship is not accidental—it’s intentional, costly, and rooted in wisdom. They didn’t allow distance, discomfort, or danger to keep them from encountering Jesus. Instead, they followed the leading of the Holy Spirit, searched the Scriptures, and responded with humble obedience.
In this message, we learn that:
• Wise worship see...
Heart For The House is more than a moment — it’s a posture of the heart. Loving God means loving what He loves, and Scripture is clear: Jesus loves His Church.
In this Heart For The House message, we’re challenged to examine how we love the Church and whether our commitment is rooted in convenience or sacrifice. Through the example of David, we see what it looks like to give with no strings attached — investing in a house ...
When Jesus walks into a room, He can instantly see what’s out of place. In Matthew 21:10–13, He steps into the temple and recognizes that the people had lost what mattered most: prayer, purpose, and usefulness. What looked fine to everyone else was completely misaligned to the One who actually owns the house.
This message challenges us to pause and ask:
Am I being found useful in God’s house?
Have things shifted in...
What if the breakthrough you’re praying for doesn’t start “out there”… but starts in you?
In this message, Pastor Luke DiBenedetto walks us through the book of Nehemiah: a nation in ruins, people defeated, walls burned to the ground, and shows us how one person’s burden sparked one of the greatest revivals in Scripture. Even after 131 years of devastation, God rebuilt what was broken in just 52 days. And that same God can ...
In this powerful message, Pastor Marcus Mecum dives into the age-old battle for worship, drawing from Daniel 4:20-27 to reveal how pride and worship are in constant opposition.
Babylon represents a spirit that seeks to pull us away from true worship and lift ourselves up in pride. Pastor Marcus discusses how Satan must seek permission from God, and how God’s intervention comes to humble the prideful.
Discover how ...
In this powerful message, Pastor Marcus unpacks Daniel 2, revealing how God holds the future and remains in control over all earthly kingdoms, even in the darkest times. Discover how prayer invites God into your situation, and why it's essential to seek God's wisdom in every season—especially when it comes to voting and leadership.
Key Topics:
•God changes times and seasons
•The attack of the enemy has an...
In this powerful message with Pastor Marcus, we dive deep into the ancient battle between Babylon and Jerusalem—the City of Man versus the City of God. Drawing from Daniel 1:1-5, we reveal how the Babylonian spirit still works in the world today, attacking families, morals, and freedom.
Discover:
- Why God will bless those who bless Israel
- The true meaning of Babylon and its relentless agenda
- How Babylon h...
What makes a great friend—and what makes a great church?
In life, the people around you will either lift you higher or hold you back. Paul knew this well. In his final letter, he listed his friends, his enemies, and everything he learned in between. He found gratitude even for the ones who left him—because they revealed the ones who would never leave.
In this message, discover five qualities that define every grea...
Sometimes the things that hold us back aren’t visible, they’re habits, mindsets, or priorities that have taken up space where purpose should live.
What wrong spirits have you allowed in your life? Nehemiah’s boldness to evict the wrong spirit is a call to every believer: protect the store rooms of your heart and keep the covenant strong.
God keeps His promises with His hands, but our covenant response is through o...
Sometimes the only thing standing between you and what God has for you is your perspective.
Zacchaeus wasn’t just short in height — he was short on vision. He wanted to see Jesus, but the crowd blocked his view. Instead of settling, he climbed higher. That decision changed everything.
In this message, we’re reminded:
• Money can never satisfy
• Nothing can disqualify you
• Only Jesus can purify you<...
When God gives you a door, it’s up to you to walk through it. 🚪
As a church this Vision Sunday we’re asking, “God, what doors do You want us to walk through?” and believing that prayer unlocks the impossible.
When we pray, we’re not using our last resort — we’re taking our first step. 🙏
This is the season to pray into possibility, to fuel the vision with faith, and to amaze Jesus with our faith.
Forgiveness isn’t a feeling. It’s a decision.
In The Beauty of Forgiveness, Pastor Marcus Mecum delivers a timely and heart-checking word about the call to forgive without condition.
When Jesus said to forgive 70x7, He wasn’t giving us a number… He was removing the limits. Forgiveness isn’t optional for the believer. It’s a command that sets you free, even more than the person you’re forgiving.
If you’ve ...
Sometimes it feels like God has gone silent. You’ve prayed, you’ve shown up, you’ve done the right things… and yet it feels dark. In this message, Savannah DiBenedetto reminds us that being in the dark doesn’t mean God has lost you. It means He’s at work.
Scripture: Exodus 33:7-23
In This Message
⁃ The “dark places” are not abandonment, but protection and preparation.
⁃ When life is shaking, God may be r...
Every generation has faced tragedy, but every generation has also carried a voice that refused to be silenced. From Stephen’s bold witness in Acts to Paul’s transformation on the road to Damascus, God has always raised up a new voice to carry His truth forward.
This message is a call to the next generation: to rise with courage, to stand for Christ, and to let your voice be heard. The blood of the martyrs is not wasted, it...
In this powerful message from Guest Pastor Charles Nieman, we dive into Revelation 1 and discover God’s design for two offices that were created to work together: kings and priests.
Kings – Men and women of influence, called to provide provision for the vision.
Priests – Called to cast vision that blesses not just ourselves, but others.
When kings and priests work together, God’s kingdom moves forward. This me...
🏃♀️ Just like in the Olympic relay, the exchange zone matters. When the baton is dropped, opportunities are lost, and generations can miss the chance to encounter God’s power.
In this message, Pastor Evan Cromer challenges us to grip the baton of faith and declare: “Not on my watch!” We can’t grow complacent, we can’t water down the truth, and we can’t let sin slow us down. The baton in our hand is sacred and how we run ...
4 Creatures of Wisdom: Lessons on Determination, Unity & Preparation | Marcus Mecum | 7 Hills Church
God hides big truths in small things. 🕷🦡🦗🐜
In Proverbs 30, the spider, the rock badger, the locust, and the ant each carry a picture of how to walk with faith, strength, and wisdom.
When life tears down your web, when storms shake your foundation, when the enemy tries to isolate you, or when winter comes, these small creatures point us back to the wisdom of God.

There is no greater message than the cross.
Every one of us carries marks/scars from struggles, seasons we’ve endured, and victories we’ve fought for. But when those marks are met with the blood of Jesus, they are transformed. They’re no longer marks of shame, but testimonies of His faithfulness.
Paul wore his scars proudly, and we are called to do the same. Our lives should reflect the cross, so when people look...
Your faith can’t be borrowed—it has to be owned. 🙌
Religious titles, church attendance, or knowing “spiritual people” won’t shake the gates of Hell. Only a personal relationship with Jesus will. Acts 19 shows us the danger of second-hand faith—and the life-changing power of knowing Him for yourself.
📖 Key Scripture
• Acts 19:11–20 — Paul’s ministry is marked by God’s power, but the sons of Sceva learn the h...
Your prayers don’t stop with you—they echo for generations. 🙏
Even when we’re not faithful, God remains faithful. Scripture shows us that what we do here in this life can shape the future of our children and grandchildren. Your grandma’s prayers may be the reason you’re walking in mercy today—and your prayers could be the reason your children are covered tomorrow.
📖 Key Scriptures
• Psalm 89:1 — God’s faith...
