In this message Pastor Mickey reminds us of a powerful truth many people struggle to believe: You Matter. Using the idea that something’s value is determined by what someone is willing to pay for it, this sermon points directly to the cross as the ultimate proof of our worth.

As Memorial Day reminds us of the sacrifices made for our freedom, we also reflect on the greatest sacrifice ever made — Jesus laying down His life for us. If Heaven was willing to pay that price for you, then your life has incredible value and purpose.

This message will encourage anyone who has ever felt unseen, forgotten, broken, or not enough. The cross settles your value once and for all.

In today’s message, Pastor Mickey shares the biblical foundation for this entire series as we answer two important questions:

What should the Church in 2026 look like?
What are people really asking in 2026?

More than ever, people are searching for authenticity, belonging, truth, and hope.

“The church of 2026 should feel less like a performance and more like coming home. Crowds impress people temporarily, but family changes people permanently.” – Pastor Mickey

Join us this week as we discover the kind of church people are truly longing for.

In this podcast, Pastor Mickey shares not only the Three Things You Need for life and success, but also three powerful truths he wishes he could go back and tell his 18-year-old self.

Here’s one of them:

“You won’t rise to your goals… you’ll fall to your habits.” — Pastor Mickey

If you’ve ever felt stuck, frustrated, or like you’re capable of more, this conversation will challenge the way you think about growth, discipline, and purpose.

Listen today to hear the other two truths and discover the Three Things You Need.

"Even if people show up to church there is a very real question that was to be asked, Does it make a difference?" - Pastor Mickey

"If we are not careful, we will try to fix spiritual shifts with natural solutions." - Pastor Mickey

What does the church look like in 2026? What should it look like? Is the 2026 church model working or does anyone even care? Join Pastor Mickey in this series as we take a real look into the 2026 church and ask, what is it really?

"Easter is not about nice people getting better. Easter is about dead people coming alive." - Pastor Mickey

"If you expect Jesus to serve your agenda, you will eventually resent Him when He doesn't." - Pastor Mickey

But here’s the most important thing to remember as we end this series:

"The goal of this series was never to make us afraid of the enemy. The goal was to remind us how secure we are in Christ." -Pastor Mickey

"Because if the enemy can’t destroy your salvation, he’ll try to destroy your confidence. And if he can’t keep you from believing in God, he’ll try to keep you from believing who God says you are." - Pastor Mickey
