Pastor Caleb speaks on the topic of kindness and how kindness is not a weakness but a divine force reflecting the nature of God, who demonstrates kindness through mercy, grace, and forgiveness. kindness is revealed as a transformative lifestyle, not merely an act. As followers of Christ, we are called to embody kindness in our words, actions, and motives, showcasing it as our divine calling and a reflection of being made in God's image.

Pastor Tomeka reveals the true “walking dead,” the children of Israel who forfeited God’s promise through unbelief. We have a daily choice to surrender our desires to God and embrace His purpose and plan, or be consumed with ourselves and the ways of this world.

Pastors Scott speaks on how spiritual confidence comes from trusting in God's love rather than dwelling on personal shortcomings. Sin damages our relationship with God by creating a guilty conscience, but Christ's perfect sacrifice not only pays our sin-debt but also purifies our conscience. 

Pastor Scott Thomas explores the biblical story of King Josiah, who became king at just 8 years old and by age 16 demonstrated spiritual strength beyond his predecessors. Pastor Scott emphasizes that Josiah's extraordinary leadership was shaped by his mother Jedidah and mentors who helped establish his identity in God. The message highlights that true transformation comes not from information about God, but from a relationship with Him. Pastor Scott teaches that while many seek identity through external validation or internal self-determination, an identity rooted in Christ—understanding ourselves as God's creation, forgiven, belonging to Him, created to serve Him, and living by His Word—provides the foundation for a transformed life.

In Pastor Scott Thomas's message "Identity Theft", he explains that our true identity is found only in Jesus Christ, not in worldly things or astrological signs. Pastor Scott emphasizes that while creation reveals God's power, trying to find our identity outside of a relationship with Christ leads to emptiness and mislabeled lives. He teaches that we discover our authentic identity by surrendering our lives to Jesus, where God has placed His image on us, equipped us with spiritual gifts, and given us a unique purpose.

Pastor Caleb Thomas shares that Easter marks not an ending but a beginning of a new era that God is calling us into personally and collectively. He encourages us to step into this new season by releasing what holds us back—whether comfortable routines, fear of change, or past experiences—and instead following Jesus into unknown territory with trust. Pastor Caleb reminds us that faith becomes real through action, challenging us to stop merely wishing for change and instead boldly step into the new things God has prepared for us at every stage of life.

Pastor Scott's Easter message focuses on the power of Jesus's empty tomb and resurrection. He explains that God opened the tomb not to let Jesus out (as He could have left without moving the stone), but to let us in - allowing witnesses to see the miracle. Pastor Scott emphasizes that the resurrection is the cornerstone of Christian faith, proving Jesus is who He claimed to be and validating all of Christianity's promises. The message concludes that because Jesus rose from the dead, we have forgiveness, purpose, hope, and the promise of eternal life.

In his Good Friday message titled "33," Pastor Scott Thomas explores the significance of Jesus's crucifixion at age 33, describing it as the climax of His earthly purpose. Pastor Scott explains that when Jesus declared "It is finished" (tetelestai) from the cross, it carried four powerful meanings: the sacrifice was completed, the mission was accomplished, our sin debt was paid in full, and a new season began where the distance between humanity and God was eliminated. Through this message, Pastor Scott emphasizes that Jesus's final words weren't a cry of defeat but rather a shout of victory that enables us to finish in victory as well.

In his message "Beyond the Music," Pastor Scott Thomas shares that we are created to worship God, which is our primary purpose in life. He explains that worship extends far beyond just music—it encompasses our entire lives, including our home, work, and church. Pastor Scott emphasizes that when we recognize all aspects of our lives as opportunities for worship through intention, attention, and devotion, we find true fulfillment because we are wired to worship God as our life-giving source of purpose.
