Discover why God sometimes brings circumstances into your life that are beyond your a...

The same principle applies to God's law—misusing it leads to spiritual disaster, but understanding its proper function brings freedom and transformation.

If Jesus walked into your church today, what would He say?

Knock, knock—who’s there? It’s not a joke this time. In John 15, Jesus invites us into something far more meaningful than a punchline: a life of abiding in Him. But what does it actually mean to “abide”? And what happens if we don’t?
In this powerful and deeply reflective sermon, Ned Brown walks through John 15:1-17 and wrestles with questions many believers are afraid to ask: Can a Christian be fruitless? What’s at stake if we are...

“What happens when even the faithful fail?” Micah 7 paints a bleak picture of a world crumbling from the inside out—corruption, betrayal, and spiritual apathy abound.

You’ll discover how Micah’s closing chapter is not just about Israel’s fa...
Does knowing the truth make you safe—or more accountable? In this message, Grant Nelson walks us through Paul’s powerful indictment of humanity in Romans 1 and 2. While some reject God outright, others—religious and moral—think they’re safe because of their behavior or heritage. But Paul says we are all without excuse.
Through reflections on Jesus' teachings in Matthew, Paul's letters to the Corinthians, and truths from Hebrews, Gr...
What if the way to eternal life isn’t something you can earn—but something that must happen to you? In this sermon, Ned Brown walks through Jesus’ late-night conversation with Nicodemus in John 3:1–21, drawing out the staggering truth that spiritual rebirth—not religious effort—is the only way to enter God's kingdom.

What if your religious devotion is missing what God actually requires? Micah 6 confronts us with one of the most important questions we could ever ask: “What does the Lord require of you?” In a culture fixated on outward performance—on checklists, sacrifices, and appearances—God reveals He’s after something far deeper: justice, mercy, and a humble walk with Him. In this message, Alex Kremer unpacks this powerful moment from Isra...
What if the greatest victory came from the smallest, most overlooked place? In Micah 5, God paints a striking contrast between worldly expectations and divine reality.

In this sermon, Alex Kremer unpacks how this ancient prophecy not only points to the birth of Christ but reveals God's consistent p...

What if true peace isn’t found through politics, prosperity, or even progress—but through a coming Kingdom? In this eye-opening message on Micah 4, Alex Kremer leads us through one of the Bible’s most hope-saturated prophecies.
