It's a lot easier to praise God when our life seems to be going the way that we want it to. But what about when hardships come that we didn't plan for? What about when we've done our due-diligence and none of it is our fault, and yet it still feels like the darkness won't lift? How do we worship when we can't see what God is doing through our suffering? This week Pastor Brandon takes a hard look at Job and what God shows us through his story about how we are to worship.

Is worship something that we usually prepare for, or something we stumble into?  This week Josh looks at Exodus 19 where God shows up in a powerful way, and what it means for us to prepare to come to God in worship.

This week Pastor Brandon takes us through 2 Chronicles 20 to see how God goes before us even in our worship of Him and the power that is found in giving it offer to Him and following with all we have.

For the past few weeks we've been looking at what it means to come together in worship from a biblical perspective. This week, Pastor Brandon talks with our worship leaders Seth and Mary Ellen about how we put these truths into practice and what God has been revealing to them about Himself through this series.

In John 4, Jesus says that God is seeking true worshipers. What does it mean to be a true worshiper, and what does it mean to worship in Spirit and Truth? What does that even look like us for here today? Join us this week as Pastor Brandon unpacks what it means to be a worshiper that the Father is seeking.

What is worship? Why do we gather together as a church? Isn't it just about me and Jesus? Sometimes it's hard to muster up anything more than just showing up on Sunday mornings, no matter who you are. Join us this week as Pastor Brandon takes his cues from both the Old and New Testaments to explore what it means to worship God corporately and what our response should be when we see God working in clear ways.

Followers of Jesus are called to listen to Him and do what He says. But the truth is, there are times when we find ourselves doubting what God has called us to do, and even doubting Him altogether. What do we do when we're in the middle of all this doubt? This week Pastor Chad addresses our doubt with a look at John's experience in Luke 7.

Luke 7 gives us the story of a Roman Centurion who reaches out to Jesus for help, and Jesus's response is amazement. Why is it so important to understand this story and how can we amaze Jesus today? Check out this week's sermon and find out!

One of the most well known messages that Jesus had preached was the beatitudes. But what does it really mean that we're blessed when we mourn? Are the poor really more blessed than the rich? What does that mean for us here in America? Join us this week as Pastor Chad explains what Jesus meant and how He offers us the best rewards.

At Austin Oaks Church, we're simply about Jesus. But it's easy to get sidetracked and focus on all of the complexities of life, so let's take this week to recalibrate and repent of those things that aren't about Him. Let's consider our ways, together.
