// What the Spirit Wants (Pentecost Sunday) //

This week, Zach talks about what the Holy Spirit wants, how the Holy Spirit seals us for salvation, and the importance of cooperating with the Spirit.

// The Spirit Through the Scriptures //

In the first week of our new series on the Holy Spirit, Zach highlights who the Holy Spirit is, taking us through the scriptures and showing how the Holy Spirit has always been present and working throughout history. The Holy Spirit has always been working, and He continues to work today in our lives!

This week, we have a special guest preacher - Graduated Senior T.J. Scott!

In this message, T.J. hits on 1) why we can logically follow Christ, 2) how to interpret and understand biblical commands, and 3) the amazing love that God has for us.

This week, Zach preaches about prayer. Why does it sometimes feel like God doesn’t answer our prayers? How do we pray and trust that God will answer? Does prayer make a difference? Zach touches on these questions, and more!

// Jonah 4:5-11 //

This week, guest preacher Jason Sniff (Pastor of Small Groups) closes out our Jonah series by focusing on some key questions found at the end of Jonah.

// Jonah 4:1-4 //

This week, Zach talked about what is beneath the surface of the hard emotions and feelings we experience on the outside. Ultimately, there is a lot to learn from Jonah’s interaction with God, but the good reminder that God's Grace is big enough to transform any circumstance or feeling.

// Jonah 2:1-10 //

Continuing with our Jonah series, this week's focus is on Jonah being swallowed by a big fish. Jonah's sin led to a pretty significant consequence, just like our sin does in our own lives. Jonah, however, repents, and praises God for being with him, even in the midst of suffering. How can we respond in a similar way to the sin and suffering in our own lives?

// Jonah 1:4-17 //

As Jonah was running from God, he found himself on a boat in the middle of a huge storm that God had sent his way. Jonah was face-to-face with his sin, and he needed to own it. As Christ followers, we also have sin in our lives that we need to own. We can't hide our sin, run from it, numb it, or ignore it - we need to face it head-on. We also can be encouraged by the reminder that God will make all things good, even in the midst of our battle with sin.

// Rod and Staff - Psalm 23:4 //

"Even when I walk through the darkest valley, I will not be afraid, for you are close beside me. Your rod and staff protect and comfort me."

Eastview's Junior High pastor (Matt McClane) talks to us this week about the fears, valleys, and darkness we may experience in our lives, and how God is always with us, even in the midst of our hard seasons.

// Pastures and Waters - Psalm 23:1-3 //

"The Lord is my shepherd; I have all that I need. He lets me rest in green meadows; he leads me beside peaceful streams. He renews my strength. He guides me along right paths, bringing honor to his name."

In the first week of our mini-series on Psalm 23, Zach dives into the first 3 verses of this encouraging Psalm. May you be reminded today that the Lord is your Shepherd, and that He is with you in whatever season you are in!
