Avoid the "tragic eulogy" of King Jehoshaphat, who built ships but failed to launch them. This week is a wake-up call to the three reasons why faith fails to set sail and beckons for "Fourth Quarter Faith" to launch delayed purposes and finish the year out strong. 

The battleground. Every believer has a divine warrant to arrest and take every rogue thought captive to obey Christ. Strongholds are defeated by identifying, arresting, and replacing lies and fear with God's truth.

Freedom from the enemy requires actively preventing their return by not leaving your life "empty". To keep the enemy out after deliverance, you must Get a Door, Evict the Old , and Throw a housewarming party for the Holy Spirit by continually filling your life with the Spirit through reading the Bible, prayer, and worship.

This powerful message reveals the five hidden doors we open—including unforgiveness, secret sin, and occult curiosities—and provides a clear, intentional strategy for closing them to walk in the authority and dominion that belong to us in Christ. Learn how to evict darkness, break every chain, and declare Jesus as Lord over every area of your life.

While the thief comes to steal, kill, and destroy, Jesus is the Door who offers abundant life. This sermon challenges you to stop living in fear and take dominion over darkness by securing your heart by Change the Locks," to stop the enemy's access to your life.

There are two eternal destinations, with God in glory or in hell completely apart from His grace. It's our choice. Hell is real and Pastor Mike breaks down what true separation from God is like.

Jesus Christ is the ultimate builder of the church, not human efforts, personalities, or programs. A healthy church participates in Christ's work by adhering to a four-part checklist: faithfully preaching the Bible , experiencing the Holy Spirit , practicing genuine fellowship , and actively engaging in outreach.

In week two of the "Upon This Rock" series, Pastor Mike declares that Jesus is not just a relatable figure but the eternal Son of God—fully God and fully man. The sermon presents six biblical assurances of His deity, including His virgin birth, sinless life, and bodily resurrection, which validate His identity as the Messiah. This message calls us to build our lives upon the foundational truth of who Jesus is: the Christ, the Son of the living God.

Pastor Mike lays out the three essentials for building a firm foundation for your faith, based on Matthew 16:18. He teaches that our lives are built on knowing God, believing His truth, and living in obedience.

In this sermon, Pastor Mike teaches that Christians are "more than conquerors" through Christ, who won the ultimate victory over sin and death. He argues that while being attacked is inevitable, defeat is not, and he encourages you to overcome their circumstances by asking four key questions from the book of Romans. Pastor Mike emphasizes that no matter what we face, God is for us and nothing can separate us from His love.
