In this powerful exploration of the sixth commandment, ‘You shall not murder,' we're challenged to look beyond the literal act and into the depths of our hearts. The story of Cain and Abel serves as a stark reminder that violence begins in our thoughts and emotions long before it manifests in our actions. By learning to investigate our anger, we can address its root causes and respond in ways that honor both ourselves and others as image-bearers of God. In this week’s Sunday Brooklyn message, Pastor Amy Perez invites us to a deeper level of self-awareness and spiritual growth, challenging us to be 'our brother's keeper' in every interaction.

The fifth commandment is not just about obedience, but about shaping our entire approach to relationships and authority. The Ten Commandments offers a guide to shift from a modern, individualistic mindset to one that values responsibility, legacy, and respect for divinely-appointed authority. In this week’s Sunday message, Pastor Ryan Schlachter encourages us that honoring our parents, even when it’s difficult, is a pathway to personal growth, societal stability, and spiritual maturity. It’s a call to reflect on how our family dynamics shape our broader worldview and our relationship with God.

In this Leadership Lesson, Pastor Luis Guerrero hosts a conversation with Pastor Kevin Myers and Steph Rivas on how to practically apply the fourth commandment of Sabbath to our modern context.

Remembering the Sabbath day and keeping it holy is not just about taking a day off—it's about resisting the relentless demands of our culture and rediscovering our true identity in God. By intentionally ceasing our work, we're declaring trust in God's provision and pushing back against the 'hustle culture' that threatens to consume us. In this week’s Sunday message in Manhattan, Pastor Ryan Schlachter outlines how Sabbath allows God to restore our souls and usher us into a holy rest.

Sabbath is not just about ceasing work, but is a weekly opportunity to declare our trust in God's provision and resist the world's demands on our time and energy. As we practice Sabbath, we are invited into a deeper intimacy with God, echoing the first thing humanity did with the Creator—resting and delighting in His presence. In this week’s Sunday message in Brooklyn, Brittany Smigielski challenges us to guard our rest and experience the freedom, healing, and restoration that comes when we obey this holy command.

There is a myth that salvation is purely an individual expereince, however it's because we have been set free by love that we then love other people. In Genesis, God stated that it was not good for man to live alone, but to have companionship on this earth. But how do we maintain healthy relationships? In this week's Leadership Lesson, Pastor Amy Perez gives three ways we can test if we are gettin enough relational nutrients and how to continue to grow in community and with God.

The Ten Commandments aren’t just rules or behavior modification—they reflect God’s holiness and how we, as His image-bearers, represent Him. Because God exists as our heavenly Father who wants good things for us, we can stand confident that these commandments are actually outlining a way of living that is for our benefit. In this week’s Sunday message in Manhattan, Pastor Luis Guerrero discusses how the third commandment isn’t just about avoiding ‘bad words,’ but bearing His name in a way that honors Him in our lives.

The third commandment isn’t about our speech as much as it is about our sincerity and reverence. It’s easy to get caught up in superficial worship, hypocrisy and self-centeredness, but the commandment to honor God’s name opens us up to a freedom to live in genuine surrender to a heavenly Father who loves us unconditionally. In this week’s Sunday message in Brooklyn, Pastor Ryan Schlachter provides four ways in which we can honor the third commandment and bless the name of God in our lives today.

In leadership, there are many things that can be considered a "win" in your life. The wins we encounter are personal and not linear, but there are biblical truthts that will allow you to have wins that go beyond the surface level. In this week's Leadership Lesson, Pastor Ryan Schlachter gives us seven questions that can help define what a win can look like in our context based on the teachings and life of Jesus.

We often create our own version of God—one that’s convenient, indulgent, and never challenges us. But the second commandment warns us against this very trap. The gods we make up never challenge us. They agree with everything we do. There’s no laying down our life. Everything is catered towards us. But we are called to be living sacrifices, image bearers of a Heavenly Father who knelt in the dust to craft us. In this week's Manhattan Sunday message, Pastor Ryan Schlachter implores us to surrender our self-made idols and worship the true, living God who transforms us.
