In this message, Tonie reminds us that the valleys in life aren’t always places of punishment—they’re often places of preparation. Using stories from Scripture and real life, he shows how God can take the dry, difficult, and hidden parts of our lives and turn them into vineyards of growth and fruitfulness. Whether you’re facing trouble, waiting for breakthrough, or wrestling with your faith, this is your reminder that God’s not done with you. The valley can still grow something beautiful.

In this message, Darryl reminds us that life with God isn’t lived on flat ground. There are highs and lows—mountains and valleys—and yet God is the same in both. Using stories from Deuteronomy and 1 Kings, he unpacks what it means to trust a God who doesn’t just show up on the mountain tops, but walks with us through the hardest valleys too. Whether you’re celebrating, struggling, or somewhere in between, this is a reminder that you can flourish anywhere—because He’s the God of both.

In this message, Dean reminds us that life can often feel like one long series of waiting rooms—but how we wait makes all the difference. Looking at the story of Simeon and Anna in Luke, he shows how waiting with the Holy Spirit changes everything. Instead of wasting the wait, they worshipped, prayed, and stayed faithful—and when the time came, they saw Jesus. This is a reminder that even in the waiting, God is working, and if we invite the Spirit into our waiting, we might just see Jesus there too.

 This week, Mitch visits from 3Ci to share a powerful message called Living as Sons.

Mitch unpacks six truths of sonship—freedom from fear, adoption, assurance, inheritance, intimacy, and discipline—reminding us that we’re not just saved, we’re called to live in the fullness of God’s plan for our lives.

In this message, Darryl takes us to Romans 8 to unpack the first of the Father’s gifts—the gift of identity. He reminds us that being a child of God isn’t about what we do, what we’ve achieved, or what others think of us—it’s about being adopted into God’s family through Jesus. Darryl demonstrates how the Holy Spirit provides us with assurance that we belong, loved by a Father who invites us to call Him “Abba.”

In this message, Dean continues our journey through the fruit of the Spirit—this time unpacking patience, kindness, and goodness. He reminds us that real patience is more than just waiting in traffic, kindness isn’t weakness, and goodness isn’t “meh”—it’s strength with integrity. When we stay connected to the Spirit, the fruit grows naturally, even when life feels frustrating or people are difficult.
