Speaker Jono Gates brought a timely and powerful word rooted in James 1:19–27. With honesty and depth, Jono shared a personal story from an intense moment at the gym that revealed the challenge—and the necessity—of being quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to become angry. He unpacked what it means to not just hear the word, but to live it out, encouraging us to become people marked by humble obedience and reflective action.

In the final message of our Evil Thoughts series, Pastor Sam Gross brings clarity and hope to one of the most misunderstood and often misrepresented inner struggles: lust. Lust isn’t love—it’s a distortion of it, turning desire into craving and people into objects. In this powerful message, we explore how lust is rooted in imagination, fueled by comparison, and ultimately leaves us empty and numb. But there’s hope: through the Spirit, we are invited into ever-increasing glory—not perfection overnight, but steady transformation. Learn how to take thoughts captive, honor God with your body, and pursue righteousness over craving.

This Sabbath Sunday, we slowed down to rest, reflect, and remember who God is. In the midst of busy schedules and constant noise, we set aside time to honor the rhythm of rest that God designed for us. Whether you joined us in person or are tuning in later, we pray this message helps you breathe deep, refocus your heart, and encounter the peace only He provides. Hit play, take a breath, and enter into Sabbath rest with us.

In this week’s message at Artisan Church, we tackle the often-overlooked but deeply destructive evil thought of greed—also known as avarice. Lead Pastor Sam Grosso breaks down how the insatiable desire for "more" can disguise itself as wisdom, success, or even blessing, but in truth often stems from comparison, fear, and discontentment. Drawing from Scripture and real-life examples, this sermon confronts the subtle ways greed creeps into our motivations and replaces trust in God with trust in gain. But there is a way forward: generosity. Tune in as we explore how true contentment is not found in getting more, but in realizing Christ is enough.

In this powerful continuation of our Evil Thoughts series, Pastor Sam Grosso tackles the often-avoided subject of gluttony—not just as overindulgence in food, but as a broader issue of yielding freely to comfort, pleasure, and created things at the cost of our spiritual vitality. Drawing from Philippians 3, this sermon explores how gluttony subtly leads to idolatry, how indulgence in temporary pleasures drains us, and how only God—our unlimited source—can truly satisfy. Learn how to reshape your desires, re-center your soul, and move from craving comfort to craving communion.

In this powerful message from Pastor Philip Brown at Artisan Church, we confront two subtle yet destructive forces: sadness and acedia—the noonday demon of spiritual numbness and apathy. Drawing from ancient wisdom and biblical insight, Pastor Philip unpacks how unchecked emotions can distort our view of God, diminish our hope, and tempt us to disengage from our calling. Through the story of Elijah and reflections on our own inner battles, we’re invited to be honest with what we carry, to ask God to “search us and know our hearts,” and to find healing not by trying harder, but by coming closer to Jesus. If you’ve felt spiritually stuck or emotionally weary, this message is for you. Subscribe to stay connected to weekly teaching that helps you live fully alive in Christ.

In this powerful continuation to our new series Evil Thoughts, Lead Pastor Sam Grosso delivers a message titled “What Is Vainglory”, inviting us to consider how deeply our focus and passions shape our identity—and how easily that can be distorted. Drawing from Jesus’ parables in Mark 4, Pastor Sam challenges us to stop treating our faith like a sideshow and begin integrating the Kingdom of God into every area of our lives. You’ll learn how growth in the Kingdom is guaranteed when we’re planted in the right soil, how the fruit of our lives reveals the depth of our discipleship, and how humble obedience—not self-promotion—leads to lasting impact. If you're ready to move from surface-level faith to a fully integrated Kingdom life, this message is for you. Be sure to like, comment, and subscribe for more teaching from Artisan Church!

Last week we asked, “Do I sin because I’m a sinner, or am I a sinner because I sin?” This week, we confront one of the most dangerous evil thoughts: anger. Scripture shows us sin starts in the mind—and anger, left unchecked, disfigures the soul. But we aren’t saved by effort; we’re saved by grace. Jesus offers us a way to renew our thoughts and overcome evil with good. In this message, we’ll learn how to steer our anger toward evil, not people, and how to replace destructive thoughts with what is true and praiseworthy.

We often think of sin as the bad things we do—but what about the good we fail to do? In this message, we explore two powerful categories of sin: sins of commission and omission. You’ll be challenged to see sin not just as behavior, but as the fruit of a deeper spiritual condition. From anger to apathy, from shortcuts to silence, the battle isn't just avoiding evil—it's learning how to trust God's justice and respond in obedience. This week, discover how to take your thoughts captive, walk in freedom, and no longer be ruled by the dominion of darkness.
