In a world where truth is constantly being challenged, changed, and redefined, Jude reminds us to contend for the faith that has been entrusted to us.

Unshakable faith isn’t built on what’s popular or convenient—it’s rooted in the unchanging truth of God’s Word. Jude 3–4 challenges us not to loosen our grip when culture shifts, but to know what we believe, stand firm in it, and faithfully protect the truth we’ve been given.

What happens when life starts shaking the things you thought were secure? In Jude 1–2, we discover that unshakable faith isn’t built on our ability to hold everything together—it’s built on the faithfulness of the God who is holding on to us. In this message, Pastor Ernest Grant, II reminds us that in Christ we are called, loved, and kept. Unshakable faith isn’t about your ability to hold on to God, but His ability to hold on to you.

What happened to you was real, but it does not get to have the final word over who you become next.

In Psalm 127, Solomon reminds us that our greatest strength isn't found in working harder—it's found in depending on the Lord. He is the One who establishes what we build, secures what we can't control, and sustains us with everything we need. The problem isn't that we've accepted responsibility; it's that we've accepted ultimate responsibility.

Join us as we discover what it looks like to stop striving in our own strength and start trusting the God who builds, watches, and provides.

This Sunday, we'll discover that our confidence isn't found in our own strength, but in God's faithfulness. No matter what has tried to overwhelm you, define you, or break you, God is able to sustain, rescue, and strengthen those who trust in Him.

This summer, we're journeying through the Psalms of Ascent—songs God's people sang as they made their way to Jerusalem. These weren't songs for easy moments; they were songs for the climb. Songs that reminded them to keep trusting God, even when the road was steep.In Week 1, we're reminded that God is calling each of us higher—not just in emotion or attendance, but in faith, obedience, surrender, and trust. Following Jesus is a journey, and every step of the climb is shaping who we're becoming.

What does it look like when God's Word actually changes your life? In this Father's Day message, Pastor Ernest walks through the final step of the SOIA framework — Application — using the life of Caleb to show what bold, faithful, applied faith looks like in real time. This one's for every dad, every family, and everyone ready to stop hearing the Word and start living it.

When reading the Bible, one of the most important questions we can ask is: What am I actually seeing in the text? In this message, Dr. Ernest Grant, II teaches the foundational skill of observation—learning to slow down, pay attention, and discover what Scripture is saying before jumping to interpretation or application.

In a world where the Bible often sits unopened and misunderstood, Scripture: What Am I Reading? helps us rediscover what God’s Word actually is and why it matters. Walking through 2 Timothy 3•14–17, Pastor Jacob unpacks the divine origin, purpose, and power of Scripture—showing how the Bible is more than a collection of books; it’s God’s revelation that teaches, corrects, equips, and ultimately points us to Jesus.

We live in a culture chasing “enough”—enough money, enough security, enough control—believing it will finally bring peace. But the truth is, enough is never enough to fund your peace. In this message from Proverbs 11:25. Dr. Ernest Grant, II unpacks how peace isn’t found in what you accumulate, but in what you’re willing to surrender.
