    Pulling from Romans 12.18 and Luke 17.3, Alyn explores concepts like how to stay in your 50%, why avoiding or attempting to control conflict never works, and how to lovingly—but honestly—confront someone in a way that fosters connection, not chaos.

  • The truth about peace: why people-pleasing ain't it

    Many people think peace means avoiding conflict, keeping the peace at all costs, or making sure everyone is happy. But biblical peace isn’t about people-pleasing or passivity. In this first message of our series, Conflict, Confrontation, and Courageous Conversations, we unpack what Paul meant when he told us to “live at peace with everyone.”

    Join us as we explore what true peace looks like in our personal relationships and what it takes to walk in both truth and love—even when it’s uncomfortable.

  • Generosity begets generosity

    Generosity isn’t just something we do—it’s a way of life that creates a ripple effect. In this final message of our four-part series on blessing, Alyn unpacks the biblical principle that generosity begets generosity.

    Many people give, but few understand the deeper truth: when we tithe and give, we step into God’s cycle of provision and blessing.

    In this message, we explore:

    ✅ The difference between tithing and giving

    ✅ How a generous heart multiplies blessing in your life

    ✅ Why holding back can actually limit what God wants to do

    ✅ The biblical foundation for living a generous life

    Generosity isn’t just about money—it’s about trust, faith, and partnering with God’s economy. If you’ve ever wrestled with giving, this message will encourage and challenge you.

  • The power of the tithe

    The tithe is one of the most misunderstood concepts in the Bible. For years, poor teaching has used it as a tool for guilt and shame—but that was never God’s intent.

    In this message, Alyn unpacks the timeless nature of tithing and why it’s the first step toward biblical blessing. With a mix of Scripture and personal testimony, he explores what the tithe is, where it came from, and how God uses it to bless His people.

    If you’ve ever wrestled with questions about tithing, this teaching will bring clarity, freedom, and fresh perspective.

  • Blessing beyond our comfort zone

    We love to talk about some kinds of blessing, but there’s a danger that others make us uncomfortable. For example, we're fine with the idea that salvation is the ultimate blessing, but when we start talking about other kinds of blessings—provision, favor, success—suddenly, the conversation gets tense.

    Alyn unpacks this tension and asks the hard questions:

    💡 Why are we eager to accept some biblical blessings but hesitant about others?

    🤔 Do we redefine “blessing” to match our experience rather than God’s promises?

    📖 What did Paul mean when he said, “God, who did not spare His own Son… how will He not also, along with Him, graciously give us all things” (Romans 8:32)?

    We also hear an incredible testimony from Marnie, whose story will challenge you to consider whether your theology of blessing is shaped by Scripture—or by preconceptions you didn’t even know you had.

    This episode isn’t about chasing lavish lifestyles—it’s about making sure we don’t shrink God’s generosity to fit our comfort zone.

  • Money's not the problem

    In this message, Alyn dives into a new topic that’s both challenging and transformative: blessing. 

    Whether it’s cultural mindsets, incorrect teaching, or our pre-understandings about money and prosperity, Alyn helps us explore the gaps between God’s perspective and ours. He unpacks how Scripture calls us to embrace not only humility but also the honor, abundance, and breakthrough that God longs to pour into our lives.
