When it comes to parenting, we can learn a lot from the way God relates to his own children. In this message from Luke 15 Pastor Bryan encourages us with the remarkable truth that God views us not as hired servants, but as sons and daughters. In the way that he relentlessly pursues a relationship with us, God demonstrates compassion and grace beyond measure. What benefits might we reap from the commitment to pursue a similar relationship with our children? Message originally given at the Summit Church in Raleigh, NC on June 25, 2023.

In celebration of Father's Day, Pastors J.D. and Bryan host their own fathers for a panel discussion.

Our homes matter, even more than we may realize. In this message from Deuteronomy 6, Pastor Bryan walks us through some of Moses' final instructions for the Israelites. These words, intended to prepare the Israelites to enter the Promised Land, still carry important implications for us today as we consider how to engage in gospel-based parenting in our current culture. If we want to have a greater chance of preparing our children to become adults who make a difference for God in their moment in history, we ought to be diligent to equip them to love and fear God.

Disappointment is a universal experience, and one that tends to reveal our underlying expectations. But what do we do when our disappointment is with God? In this week’s message from Exodus 32, Pastor Bryan contends that in moments like these, we have a clear choice—turn to idols to assuage our feelings, or take the opportunity to actively trust God. Are you ready to willfully submit to God’s sovereignty, even in seasons of disappointment? Message originally given at the Summit Church in Raleigh, NC on May 28, 2023.

This week's message from Pastor J.D. and Pastor Bryan will help us cultivate a deeper understanding from John 4 of the concept of reconciliation—something that our world desperately needs. As the body of Christ, what we have in common is profound and beautiful, and ought to propel us toward unity. When we recognize this and take time to honor the humanity of those around us, we will be in a much better position to achieve ethnic unity. Preached at Summit Church in Raleigh, NC on 5/21/23

While we live in a time of much racial division and strife, we shouldn’t forget that Jesus did too. In this week’s message, Pastor Bryan invites us to reflect on a well-known story in John 4 where Jesus' encounter with a Samaritan woman left her forever changed—and was a powerful display of what it looks like to take the gospel across ethnic lines. Ultimately, only by aligning ourselves with Jesus' mission will we have any hope of accomplishing true ethnic unity. Message originally given at the Summit Church in Raleigh, NC on 5/15/23.

Perhaps you’re familiar with Paul’s powerful statement that “to live is Christ, and to die is gain” (Philippians 1:21). In this week’s message from Philippians 1, Pastor Bryan explains how having Christ as his foundation led to Paul’s ability to live in a way that was worthy of the gospel, even in the midst of adverse circumstances. What might it look like for you to live in a manner worthy of the gospel in today’s world? Recorded 3/19/23 at Summit Church in Raleigh, NC.

In this week’s message from Psalm 101, Pastor Bryan helps us think through what integrity truly means for a follower of Christ. Is it moral perfection? Is it merely a result of our own effort and strivings? On the contrary—only by resting in the faithfulness and steadfast love of Jesus can we lead lives of integrity that will present a beautiful witness to a watching world.
