Celebrate the power of the resurrection in this Easter message from Generation Churcha message about hope, healing, and how God turns disappointment into rejoicing.
In John 20, the disciples ran to the tomb not with excitement but with fear, confusion, and heartbreak, believing Jesus’ body had been taken.
 But what they discovered changed everything: the tomb was empty and Jesus was alive.
This message walks through the reality of life’s deepest disappointments - whether it’s loss, unanswered prayers, broken relationships, or unmet expectations and reveals how the resurrection speaks directly into those places.
Because Jesus didn’t stay in the grave, your story isn’t over either.

In this powerful Palm Sunday message at Generation Church, guest speaker Nate Clarke teaches from Matthew 27 on a rarely discussed but deeply destructive sin: envy. As Jesus stood before Pilate on the way to the cross, Scripture says it was envy that drove the religious leaders to hand Him over.

In this sermon, Pastor Nate Clarke exposes the danger of comparison, jealousy, and resentment, showing how envy quietly poisons the heart, distorts the truth about God, and chokes out a godly life. He unpacks five dangers of envy and then gives practical, biblical ways to live free through gratitude, confession, prayer, trust, and delight in God.

If you’ve ever struggled with comparing your gifts, calling, opportunities, family, success, or season of life to someone else’s, this message will speak directly to your heart. The good news is that Jesus not only saw envy at work on the way to the cross—He died to set us free from it.

This is a timely message for Holy Week, calling us to surrender our whole hearts to the God who is jealous for us in a righteous and holy way.

In this message from Generation Church, Pastor Ryan Visconti closes the Money Myths series with a practical and powerful sermon called “Take Your Next Step.”

If becoming like Jesus means growing in faith, love, and generosity, then every believer has a next step to take. In this message, Pastor Ryan unpacks the Generosity Ladder and shows how Christians move from fear, greed, and casual giving into a life of intentional, joyful, and overflowing generosity.
You’ll learn what keeps people stuck spiritually, why loving money and lacking faith prevent growth, and why tipping God is not the same as honoring Him. Pastor Ryan then lays out the clear steps of generosity: tithing, offerings, sacrificial giving, and overflowing generosity.

This sermon is deeply practical, biblical, and challenging. Whether you’re just beginning your faith journey, learning to tithe for the first time, or ready to trust God at a greater level, this message will help you identify your next step and take it with faith.

Most importantly, this message points to the ultimate step of faith: surrendering your life to Jesus Christ, who gave everything first.

In this message from Generation Church, Pastor Ryan Visconti continues the Money Myths series with a transparent and practical teaching on church stewardship and finances.

Many people wonder what happens to the money that is given at church. How are tithes and offerings used? How does a church create a budget, manage debt, fund ministry, support missions, and care for people in need? In this sermon, Pastor Ryan gives a rare behind-the-scenes look at how church finances work and why biblical stewardship matters so much.
Walking through key Scriptures on stewardship, integrity, budgeting, generosity, savings, legacy, and accountability, this message shows that everything belongs to God and that churches are called to handle His resources with wisdom and faithfulness.

You’ll also hear how Generation Church uses general funds and designated funds to support campuses, ministries, staffing, mercy outreach, foster care, food pantry ministry, global missions, and future growth. Most importantly, this message reminds us that faithful stewardship is not just about policies or procedures, it is ultimately measured by kingdom fruit.
If you’ve ever asked, “Where does church money go?” or “Can I trust my church leaders with finances?” this message will help answer those questions with biblical clarity and practical insight.

What does the Bible actually teach about generosity, offerings, and money?

In this message from the Money Myths series, we explore the difference between tithes, offerings, and alms, and ask the personal question: Am I generous? This sermon unpacks how generosity reflects the heart of God, why offerings are a voluntary act of extravagant worship, and how both a poverty mindset and the prosperity gospel can distort a biblical view of money.

You’ll hear powerful testimonies of God’s faithfulness, practical teaching on stewardship, and biblical examples from Moses, David, Solomon, the widow’s offering, and the boy who gave his lunch to Jesus. Above all, this message points us back to Jesus - the ultimate picture of generosity - who gave His life so we could receive eternal life.

Whether you are new to church, wrestling with finances, or wanting to grow in faith, this message will challenge you to trust God more deeply and live with open hands.

In this message from Generation Church, Pastor Ryan Visconti continues the Money Myths series with a clear and compelling teaching titled “Why I Tithe.” Is tithing just an Old Testament law or is it a timeless act of worship? Walking through Scripture from Genesis to Hebrews, Pastor Ryan explains how tithing predates the Law, connects to Jesus as our eternal High Priest in the order of Melchizedek, and remains a powerful declaration of faith for believers today.

In this message from Generation Church, Pastor Ryan Visconti kicks off the Money Myths series with a powerful teaching from Matthew 6:19–34. Jesus doesn’t treat money like a neutral tool. He exposes it as a rival master that competes for your devotion.
You’ll learn what Jesus meant by “You cannot serve God and mammon,” why your treasure is tethered to your heart, and how worry reveals a divided soul. God calls us to stop placing our certainty in a bank balance and start leaning fully on the Lord.
If you’ve been battling financial anxiety, a scarcity mindset, or the feeling that “more money will finally make me secure,” this sermon will remind you that God is not only a Master worth serving - He is a loving Father who knows your needs and promises to provide.

In this message from Generation Church, Pastor Ryan Visconti preaches from Mark 4:35–41 and unpacks the powerful moment when Jesus calms the storm. The disciples fear drowning but after Jesus speaks, the storm obeys and their fear shifts from the waves to the fear of the Lord.

You will learn the difference between fear that comes from faithlessness and holy fear that leads to wisdom, obedience, and life. If you are in a storm right now physical, financial, relational, or spiritual this sermon will strengthen your faith, remind you of God’s love proven at the cross, and call you to fear the right thing not the storm but the Lord of the storm.

In this timely and biblical message, Pastor Ryan Visconti addresses one of the most debated issues of our moment: immigration - through the lens of Scripture. With both clarity and compassion, he explains how Christians can hold love for the foreigner and respect for law and order in tension - without falling into the world’s false “either/or.”
Pastor Ryan walks through key passages in the Old and New Testaments to show:

• why every human being has dignity as an image-bearer of God,
• why nations and borders exist by God’s design,
• why lawlessness produces real consequences,
• and how the gospel ultimately reframes the immigration conversation spiritually—because we were once “foreigners” to God, but brought near through Jesus.

If you’ve felt confused, burdened, or pressured to pick a side, this message will help you think with biblical maturity and respond with truth, wisdom, and mercy.

In this special 12th anniversary message at Generation Church, Pastor Ryan Visconti calls the church to unity, maturity, and wholehearted devotion to Jesus. Reflecting on God’s faithfulness over the past year, this sermon challenges believers to get their house in order personally and corporately by honoring God, equipping believers, and reaching the lost.
This message unpacks why the number twelve represents divine order and spiritual foundation in Scripture and how God is inviting His church into a new season of clarity, commitment, and growth. Pastor Ryan speaks directly to those who are all in, half in, or just visiting, offering a clear invitation to go deeper in faith and fully engage in the mission of the local church.
Whether you are new to church, returning after time away, or already committed, this message will encourage you to align your life around Jesus and take your next step forward.
