This message also sets the foundation for the series, exploring how inner battles and evil thoughts, as identified by early church father Evagrius Ponticus, influence our actions today. Expect biblical insight, honest reflection, and practical wisdom for resisting compromise and standing firm in your faith.

In this message from Artisan Church, Pastor Phillip Brown, our Youth and Creative Pastor, shares a powerful word about living as the light of the world. Building off the celebration of Easter and looking forward to the summer, Pastor Phillip unpacks how God's first solution to darkness was to create light—and now, through Jesus, that same light lives in us. You’ll hear how we’re not just called to shine, but created to shine, and how we can remove the “baskets” of fear, comfort, and self-doubt that dim our influence. Get ready to be challenged, encouraged, and equipped to live risen, not hidden! If this message speaks to you, make sure to like, subscribe, and share it with someone who needs to hear it.
In this impactful sermon from Lead Pastor Sam Grasso at Artisan Church, we dive into the difference between living fromthe cross versus just stopping at it. Pastor Sam challenges us to consider what kind of information we've built our lives around — and whether it's truly grounded in the full story of Jesus. With relatable humor, personal stories, and powerful scripture, this message unpacks the resurrection as more than just a future hope — it’s a present reality that invites us into a bold, free, and Spirit-filled life. If you've ever found yourself hiding behind fear or living off half-truths, this one is for you.
To truly understand communion, we have to go back—to the very beginning. From the Tree of Life in Eden to the cross of Christ, God's story has always included an invitation to the table. In this message, we explore how communion isn’t just a ritual—it’s a return. A return to relationship, to alignment, and to life through Jesus. Discover how every meal in Scripture points to the one that changed everything, and how this ancient practice still transforms us today.
What does triumph really mean? As Jesus entered Jerusalem, the crowds celebrated a king they thought would conquer their enemies—but they missed the deeper battle He came to fight. In this message from John 12, we explore how easily we mistake quick wins for true victory, and how our desire to control the process can blind us to what Jesus is actually doing. As we begin Holy Week, we’re invited to reflect on where we might be resisting His way of triumph—through surrender, not dominance.
Ever cringe at someone’s over-the-top joy—like dancing in church or playing guitar with their toes? Pastor Sam Grosso unpacks David’s bold worship in 2 Samuel and how joy isn’t a feeling, but a choice—to joy in response to God’s presence. David’s joy drew judgment, but he wasn’t ashamed, and neither should we be. This message challenges you to move from watching to joining. What is your posture saying about the God you serve?
True friendship is more than just companionship—it’s a biblical calling. In this message, Pastor Sam Grosso unpacks philia love, the kind of deep, brotherly connection that Scripture calls us to. Many struggle with loneliness, toxic friendships, or self-centered relationships, but Jesus commands us to love one another in a way that reflects Him (John 13:34-35). We’ll explore what it means to be a Christ-centered friend, the dangers of selfishness, and why real friendship requires sacrifice. Don’t miss this powerful teaching on how biblical love transforms the way we invest in others.
