God doesn’t just accomplish His mission alone—He partners with faith-filled people.

In the first message of our Kingdom Builders series, we walk through Genesis 12 and 22 to see how God formed Abraham through testing and obedience. This is not a story about arbitrary suffering—it’s about a God who shapes faithful partners for a global mission. And ultimately, it’s about the God who provides.

What does the future hold for Aletheia Church? In this 15th anniversary message, Pastor Jim Laffoon calls us to look ahead with faith—reminding us that the mission ahead won’t be accomplished by intellect or strategy, but by the power of the Holy Spirit. As God moves again, the question isn’t whether He’s working—but how we will respond.

What is the goal of the mission? In Psalm 84, we are reminded that the mission of Jesus isn’t just what we do—it’s what we’re invited into: the presence of God Himself. In a loud, busy, distracted world, God invites His people to rediscover the joy, strength, belonging, and hope found simply in being with Him—together.

As we kick off the celebration of 15 years of God’s faithfulness at Aletheia, Dr. Stephen Mansfield calls us to recover the biblical meaning of remembrance. Preaching from Luke 22:19, he shows that remembering is not simply recalling the past, but receiving a present impartation of God’s power for what He is calling us to do now. This message invites us to remember who we are—and to move forward in faith.

The mission of the church isn’t optional or distant—it’s urgent and right in front of us. In the final message of The Mission series, we look at Jesus’ words in John 4 as he calls his disciples to lift their eyes and see that “the fields are white for harvest.” We, the church, are also called to join the harvest and faithfully step into what God is already doing right now.

What does it mean to be sent by Jesus with the gospel and the Holy Spirit? In John 20, Pastor Adam Mabry shows that mission doesn’t begin with pressure or performance, but with peace, purpose, people, and the power of the Spirit. As Jesus sends his disciples just as the Father sent him, we too are sent with God’s pleasure, shaped by God’s purpose, surrounded by God’s people, and empowered by God’s Spirit.

At the center of God’s mission stands the cross. In John 12, Jesus reveals that his suffering, death, and exaltation are not a detour from God’s plan, but the very means by which God’s love and holiness meet. In this sermon, we see how the cross glorifies God, defeats Satan, judges sin, and draws the world to Jesus—calling us to see the cross not as tragedy, but as the centerpiece of God’s saving mission.

Where does God’s mission begin? In this opening message of The Mission, we learn that the mission of God flows from the extravagant, undeserved love of the Father. This sermon challenges both rebellious and religious hearts, calling the Church to be shaped by God’s love and sent into the world with compassion, urgency, and grace.

Through the story of Simeon and Anna’s encounter with the Christ child in the temple, we explore the four pillars of a hope that sustains us through every season. Learn why biblical hope isn’t just a sunny disposition—it is rooted in God’s Word, animated by his Spirit, perpetuated by his presence, and fulfilled by his provision.

In this sermon, we look at Mary and Joseph—two regular people caught up in a plan far bigger than themselves. Through their story of obedience, we discover how God’s love for sinners transforms our palpable fear into courageous strength and why your own weakness is actually the perfect canvas for his grace.
