You don’t have to strive for acceptance when you already are fully loved in Christ. In this sermon, Pastor Chad Glover looks at how our culture disciples us to constantly strive for acceptance—and how Jesus has already finished that striving at the cross. We unpack what it means to live as God’s beloved sons and daughters, moving from proving ourselves to resting in Christ’s unshakable love. 

Key Takeaways:

If you’re tired of feeling like you’re never enough, this message will help you receive and rest in the love of Jesus.

Is your Christian life driven by trying harder, doing more, and keeping all the rules—yet still wondering if you’re truly accepted by God? In this message from Galatians 3:15‑29, Pastor Phil explains why godliness never comes through the law but only through faith in Jesus, Abraham’s promised Seed. You’ll see that the law can point out your sin, but only Christ can change your heart and make you new.

Discover what it means to be born again of incorruptible Seed, to be “baptized into Christ,” and to live as a true son or daughter of God. Your worth is in your birth, not your performance, and as a child of God you cannot lose what you could never earn.

Scripture: Galatians 3:15‑29; John 3:3; 1 Peter 1:23; 2 Corinthians 5:14

Your acceptance with God is not earned by your works but rests entirely on Christ’s finished work on the cross. In this sermon on Galatians 3:1-14, Pastor Phil Hopper discusses how true acceptance by God comes through grace, not works. He unpacks the difference between justification and sanctification and reminds us that our faith is the only way we receive God’s grace. 

Christ died for us to bring us justification. He lives in us to sanctify us. We are saved by grace through faith in Jesus. If you struggle to find your worth in your performance, this sermon will teach you to rest in God’s grace instead of striving for His approval.

Jesus leaves the ninety-nine to go after the one. In this powerful sermon on Luke 15, guest speaker Vance Pitman unpacks the heart of Jesus for the lost, reminding us that every number in the global population represents a soul God loves.

Discover why every person on earth is either lost or found, what it really means to be spiritually lost, and how Jesus relentlessly pursues those far from God. You’ll see how His love moves Him to draw near to sinners, welcome them as friends, and rejoice when people turn back to Him in faith. This message will challenge believers to lay down comfort and religious activity and recover Christ’s mission to seek and to save the lost where we live, work, and play.

What does it mean to say, “I have been crucified with Christ?” In this sermon, Pastor Chad walks through Galatians 2:20 and reveals that the only way to real freedom and joy is through being crucified with Christ.

We will explore why many believers are comfortable with Jesus on the cross but hesitant to join Him there, staying stuck in legalism, shame, and “favorite sins.” Paul declares, “I have been crucified with Christ… it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me,” showing that the Christian life is Christ living through us by the Holy Spirit. This sermon invites you to nail your old life to the cross and step into real freedom and joy.

Join Pastor Chad Glover as he shares how the crucified life is the abundant life!

Religious legalism says, “If I do enough good things, then God will finally accept me.” But the gospel says something completely different. In this message from Galatians 2:1–16, we see Paul confront a false gospel that added Old Testament law—specifically circumcision—to faith in Christ, and we discover why God hates that kind of religion.

You’ll learn three reasons God opposes religious legalism: it focuses on outward works instead of Christ’s inward work, it pulls those God has freed back into religious captivity, and it produces hypocrisy instead of authenticity. Walking through Galatians 2 and the Jerusalem Council in Acts 15, this message will encourage you to rest in the finished work of Jesus and to stop living like you still have to earn what Christ has already given.

What is the true gospel—and how do you know you are saved through it? In this sermon, Pastor Phil Hopper continue our series through Galatians and reminds us that Jesus plus nothing equals everything. 

Walking through Galatians 1, Pastor Phil unpacks Paul’s bold claim that the gospel does not include works of man and gives five questions that point to the evidence of salvation in a person’s life. If you’re wrestling with legalism, doubt about your salvation, or confusion about the gospel, this message will help you rest in Christ alone and respond to His transforming grace.

Is the gospel you believe really the good news—or a counterfeit? In his sermon, Pastor Phil Hopper shares how easy it is to trade the freedom of Christ for the bondage of religion. 

In his letter to the Galatians, the apostle Paul confronted false teachers who twisted the gospel from “grace through faith” to “Jesus plus works,” turning good news into bad news. His letter unpacks what the true gospel is, and encourages believers to protect its purity.

Discover why Jesus + nothing = everything, why religion can never redeem you, and how redemption is found only in Christ’s finished work. If you’ve ever wondered whether you’ve slipped into performance-based Christianity, this message will help you stand firm in the liberty Christ purchased for you and live the abundant life God intended.
