Even with more churches, more Bibles, and more resources than ever before, the Great Commission still isn't finished. In this powerful message, Pastor Jonathan calls us back to the heart of God's mission, to reach every nation, every person, and every soul with the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

Key Takeaways

• Hearts that are Burdened — The mission begins with compassion. Ask God to give you His heart for the lost until a burden becomes a movement.
• Churches that Send — God is a sending God. The Father sent the Son, the Son sent the Spirit, and the Spirit sends the Church. Success isn’t measured by gathering—it’s measured by sending.
• People that Go — The call to “go” is both global and personal. The frontier is not just unreached nations—it’s the uncomfortable edge of your own faith.
• Mouths that Speak — Actions show the Gospel, but words declare it. Testify boldly of what Jesus has done and trust Him with the results.

The mission isn’t finished because our hearts aren’t done burning.Ask God for a burden, open your hands to send, step out in faith to go, and speak the name of Jesus wherever He leads.

In this message, Pastor Jonathan teaches that mission is not only a calling, it's a joy. We are chosen by God, empowered by His Spirit, backed by His authority, and filled with joy as we see Him move through us. When we step into His mission, we discover purpose, partnership, and supernatural joy that nothing else on earth can offer.

Key Takeaways

• The Joy of Being Chosen - God does not send strangers — He sends those who stay close to Him. If you want a mission from God, stay near His presence and say, “Here I am — send me.”
• The Joy of Trusting - Being sent isn’t always easy, but God provides. We go as lambs among wolves, trusting Him for protection, provision, and purpose — knowing rejection comes with the mission, but so does His power.
• The Joy of PartnershipWe never go alone. God gives the words, the power, and the authority we need. When you step out in faith, heaven steps out with you.
• The Joy of a Mission Fulfilled - There is a unique joy that comes from being used by God. Like the 72 returning with joy, we celebrate seeing lives changed, hearts opened, and the Kingdom advancing.

You were not saved to sit, you were saved to be sent. In this powerful message, Pastor Joakim reminds us that every believer is called to mission: locally, nationally, and globally, all at the same time. God is igniting a fire in His Church to carry His Word, His presence, and His power into every sphere of influence. This message unpacks three spiritual forces that, when combined, activate unstoppable passion for the Gospel: 

Key Takeaways

• The Power of Seeds - God’s Word is living energy. Our job isn’t to convert—it’s to plant the seed of the Gospel through words, actions, and obedience. Every seed sown prepares someone for their “day of visitation.”
• The Power of Sacrifice - Mission always costs something. Whether it’s convenience, comfort, finances, or reputation—when we pay the price for the Gospel, God releases eternal impact through our lives.
• The Power of Sanctification - Mission flows from a life set apart for Jesus. When we hear His Word and live it out visibly, it sets us on fire with an unstoppable passion to share Him with the world.

Growth in God doesn’t happen by accident, it happens by sowing seed and digging deep. In this message, Pastor Dustin teaches the powerful principle seen in the life of Isaac in Genesis 26: you will never step into the full blessing of God if you stop sowing and stop digging. 

Key Takeaways 

• Sow and Dig in Every SeasonDon’t wait for the “perfect moment.” Isaac planted in famine and God blessed him a hundredfold. 
• Anticipate OppositionThe enemy always attacks where the water flows. Resistance is not a sign to stop—it’s a sign you’re close to breakthrough (John 15:18).
• Relocate & Re-DigWhen a well is blocked, don’t quit—move forward, keep digging, and rediscover what God has promised (Philippians 3:13–14).
• Sow & Dig for Who’s NextYour faithfulness today creates wells of revival and blessing for the next generation.

When you plant your seed and dig your well, God releases rivers of living water that will flow in you and through you.

In the final week of our Wisdom That Works series, Pastor Jonathan unpacks the heart of Solomon’s message to his son, and to us. Proverbs paints a vivid picture of two voices calling out: one of wisdom and one of folly. Each offers a way of life, a house to dwell in, a table to eat at, and an outcome to live with.

Key Takeaways

• Two Women – Lady Wisdom and the Immoral Woman both call out for your attention—but only one leads to life.
• Two Houses – One built on the seven pillars of wisdom; the other a shallow porch that leads to ruin.
• Two Lights – Live in the open and walk in truth; darkness only hides what destroys.
• Two Voices – Wisdom corrects, disciplines, and empowers. Folly flatters, excites, and deceives. 
• Two Meals – One offers stolen bread and secrecy; the other offers righteousness, growth, and fulfillment. 
• Two Outcomes – Wisdom brings life, blessing, and favor. Folly ends in emptiness and death. 

Every day, two voices are calling for your attention, one that leads to wisdom and one that leads to destruction.Which one will you follow?

What if your work isn’t just a job, but an act of worship? In this powerful message, Pastor Jonathan shares how to find purpose, balance, and integrity in your daily grind. God created work, and when we do it with excellence and faithfulness, we honor Him. 

Key Takeaways 

• Break the Curse of Laziness – Laziness leads to fear, apathy, pride, and poverty. God honors effort, fruitfulness, and accomplishment (Proverbs 26:13–16; 24:30–34). 
• Balance So You Don’t Burn Out – Work hard, but remember that rest is holy. Sabbath is God’s idea for replenishment and perspective (Exodus 23:12; Mark 6:31–32).
• Being Crooked Will Cost You – Corruption, cheating, and compromise destroy character. Integrity gains favor and peace with God (Proverbs 11:1; 10:9; 28:6).
• A Job Well Done Honors God – God loves excellence. Work with skill, diligence, and creativity—it brings Him glory (Proverbs 22:29; Colossians 3:23).
• Generosity Beats Greed – Honor God with your wealth. Generosity breaks the power of greed and invites God’s blessing (Proverbs 3:9–10).

God cares about your work because your work is worship.Whether you lead a company, teach in a classroom, or serve behind the scenes, do it all unto the Lord.

Are you building your life for today, or for forever? In Part 6 of our Wisdom That Works series, Pastor Jonathan challenges us to shift our focus from the temporary to the eternal. This message reminds us that every word, every action, every choice echoes into eternity... and that wisdom begins with living with eternity in mind.

Key Takeaways

• Adopt the Mindset of Eternity – Life is short and passes faster than we think. Live with a perspective that stretches beyond this life and into foreverBuilding for Eternity.
• Ask Eternal Questions – Did you obey God’s call? Did you imitate Jesus? Are you building on Christ as your foundation? Did you learn to love well?
• Value What Lasts – The most valuable thing in the universe is the human soul. Win souls, disciple others, and invest your life in what will shine foreverBuilding for Eternity.
• Respond to the Moment – The harvest is ripe. This is the moment to focus on eternity, focus on souls, and commit to bringing someone to Christ.

Don’t prepare for the wrong trip. Build your life on what will matter a million years from now—Jesus, His Kingdom, and the people He died to save.

Your words are powerful… they shape your life, steer your direction, and leave a legacy long after they’re spoken. In Part 5 of our Wisdom That Works series, Pastor Jonathan explores the wisdom of controlling our tongue and using our speech not for destruction, but to bring life! 

Key Takeaways 

• Our Words Steer Our Lives – Like a bit in a horse’s mouth or a rudder on a ship, your words set your direction.
• What’s Down in the Well Comes Up in the Bucket – Your words reveal what fills your heart (Luke 6:45).
• We’re Either Building or Bulldozing – Words can wound (careless, harsh, deceptive, negative, corrupt) or heal (honest, gracious, timely, edifying)
• Restrain and Release – Wisdom knows when to be slow to speak and when to speak with power, truth, and kindness (James 1:19–20).

You can’t control every situation, but you can control what comes out of your mouth. Speak life, not death, and watch how wisdom transforms your world!

Every generation faces defining moments… moments that demand courage, clarity, and conviction. In this timely message, Pastor Jonathan calls us to recognize the significance of the hour we’re living in and to get spiritually ready for what’s ahead!

• Confront Your Heart – Is your heart calloused or caring? Passive or passionate? Fearful or faithful? God is looking for hearts fully His. 
• Cleanse Your Mind – Stay alert, clearheaded, and focused. Don’t let your mind be polluted or distracted; renew it daily in God’s Word. 
• Prepare Your Words – Speak with boldness, truth, and love. Your words carry power—use them to bring life, not division. 
• Direct Your Feet – Be planted in the house of God, stand firm in truth, and move in obedience when God calls.

We can’t always choose the moment we live in, but we can choose how we respond to it.Now is the time to get ready, stand strong, and be the light this world desperately needs!

From the painful realities of disloyalty to the life-giving examples of Jonathan and David, this message challenges us to examine our friendships, marriages, families, and communities. Loyalty isn’t accidental, it’s a choice. And when it’s practiced, it leaves a legacy that blesses generations. 

Key Takeaways 

• The Faces of Disloyalty – Favor attracts fake loyalty, crisis reveals true loyalty, and disloyalty always wounds deeply
• Five Traits of Loyalty – Loyalty is intentional, it defends in absence, it warns of danger, it builds for legacy, and it sacrifices.
• The Source of Loyalty – Loyalty flows from the hesed love of God, fully revealed in Jesus, who “loved His disciples to the end” (John 13:1). 

Who has your loyalty on purpose? And whose loyalty are you cultivating in your own life?When you live with loyalty, you don’t just gain friends—you gain favor, blessing, and a legacy that outlasts you.
