Pastor Nate preaches from Isaiah 9:1-7, emphasizing that while humanity faces despair and uncertainty, God has provided hope. He warns against trusting in human solutions during turbulent times and urges reverence for God alone. This message unveils the King, who is both a child born (humanity) and a son given (deity), known by the names Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, and Prince of Peace. This King’s benevolent rule will establish justice and righteousness, eradicating all conflict, brokenness, and despair. Nate challenges listeners to respond by believing that all of history centers on Jesus and actively ordering their lives around His guidance and supernatural peace.

In the final sermon of the "Something's Happening" series, Pastor Nate addresses the urgency of evangelism through the command to see people as Jesus does. Focusing on Matthew 9:9-13, the message explores Jesus' call to Matthew, a tax collector who was widely hated and deemed politically, religiously, and socially unacceptable. Jesus moved towards Matthew, demonstrating that true compassion and love require action, not just feeling. When questioned by the Pharisees for eating with sinners, Jesus countered that He came to call the sick, not the well, desiring mercy over sacrifice. Pastor Nate challenges believers to run from legalism and be willing to do whatever it takes to bring people to Jesus. He warns against the "gospel bubble," urging the congregation to remember that they are modern-day Matthews who should not look disdainfully upon non-believers but instead acknowledge their full humanity and move towards them with the Gospel. The service culminates with a powerful personal story and the Gospel, emphasizing that sin is humanity's deepest problem and forgiveness in Jesus is our deepest need.

In this message, Pastor Nate draws upon John chapter 16 to explore Jesus's teaching that His own departure was actually "to your advantage". This advantage is the sending of the Holy Spirit, who is described as the Helper, Advocate, Counselor, and Guide. Pastor Nate presents four key aspects of the Holy Spirit’s work: He will bring good, bring conviction (of sin, righteousness, and judgment), guide followers of Jesus into all truth (including the content of the New Testament), and, finally, glorify Jesus. The core role of the Holy Spirit is to illuminate and "make much of Christ," empowering believers to walk in wisdom and please Jesus in every aspect of life. The message concludes with a powerful invitation to embrace and follow the Holy Spirit daily, and a call to believe upon Christ, admitting sin, and confessing Him for salvation.

Join Pastor Tony for the "Something's happening" sermon series as he dives into Theological Renewal, the process of continually rediscovering who God truly is, using Nehemiah 8 as his foundational text. He defines theological renewal as rediscovering God, which results in renewed worship, mission, and holiness, stressing that this process is necessary to prepare for and foster revival. Drawing from the people’s actions in Nehemiah 8, Pastor Tony outlines three ways this renewal happens through God’s Word: we must preach and teach the Bible with clarity; we must respond to the Bible with conviction, allowing true repentance over sin to give way to joy; and we must live out the Bible as the church by enjoying each other and taking care of needs. Ultimately, he encourages listeners that pursuing God starts in His Word, which is essential for ongoing transformation.

Pastor Nate, continues the series "Something's Happening" by exploring a characteristic—confession and repentance of sin—that has historically been present when God performs miraculous work in a church or region. Drawing primarily from James chapter 4, verses 1-10, Pastor Nate emphasizes that confession and repentance are integral to following Christ and, when rooted in the belief of Jesus's love and commitment, are seen not merely as a duty but as a delight that recalibrates a believer for true spiritual flourishing. The message centers on three points: first, listeners are urged to examine their lives to recognize that internal wars, fights, and quarrels originate from unrestrained desires for pleasure, sensuality, power, and honor (hedonism). Second, believers must embrace the seriousness of sin, understanding that "friendship with the world"—the system of beliefs that draws attention away from God—is likened to spousal adultery and makes one an enemy of God. Third, the path forward is to pursue humility, as God continually opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble. Pastor Nate concludes by encouraging Christians to continually confess and repent because they are saved, and urging non-Christians to confess and repent to be saved by believing upon Christ.

Pastor Ryan unpacks the topic of prayer, arguing that "prayer changes us and God uses us to change the world". Drawing on the Disciples' Prayer in Matthew 6:9-13, this message focuses on seeing who God is—as Father, King, Giver, and Savior—to rightly understand our identity in Christ (e.g., child, worshipper, servant, beneficiary, sinner). The sermon addresses the common feeling that prayer "is not for me", and challenges believers to pray with desperation and expectation for renewal or revival. By recognizing the plural language of the Lord's Prayer (e.g., "Our Father," "give us"), listeners are encouraged to step into corporate prayer as part of the body of Christ, believing that their prayers matter and will usher in God's kingdom. The shortest distance between our problems and their solutions is the distance between our knees and the floor, so the call to action is simply to pray.

Pastor Nate delves into the central truth that it's all about Jesus. Drawing primarily from Luke 24:13-35, the message uses the account of the disciples on the road to Emmaus to illustrate how the entire Bible points forward to the person and the work of Jesus. Pastor Nate emphasizes that Jesus must be our anchor, preventing us from drifting from what is true and right, and reveals how seeing Christ concealed in the Old Testament and revealed in the New Testament transforms our perspective on scripture. This focus on Christ, who is the true and better fulfillment of Old Testament figures (like Adam, Moses, and Jonah), informs all aspects of life—not just salvation—requiring a necessary "heart surgery" that addresses sin rather than superficial problems. The ultimate goal is that your heart would burn with enthusiasm, power, passion, and worship for Jesus.

Pastor Nate confronts the “very dire and very serious” reality that all humanity is spiritually dead and under God’s judgment. He explores how every person once walked in trespasses and sins, following the course of the world. However, the message pivots on the gospel’s two-word summary: “But God”. Because of His great mercy and love, God intervenes in this otherwise hopeless situation, bringing life to those who cannot save themselves. The core truth is that we are rescued, changed, and forgiven “by grace, not works”, so that no one may boast. Listen as the speaker offers an opportunity to be awakened and receive spiritual life by believing and trusting in Jesus Christ—the awesome gift of salvation.

Join Pastor Tony as he continues walking through the book of Ephesians, examining Paul's prayer in Ephesians 1:15-23. The core message challenges listeners to recognize that God offers everything, and believers must not settle for a shallow faith. Paul, writing from prison, prays for the church to go deeper, specifically asking for the spirit of wisdom and the revelation of knowledge of God. This process of petitioning and pursuing God through prayer and the Word leads to the enlightenment of the eyes of the heart, revealing the hope to which we are called, the riches of our inheritance, and the immeasurable greatness of God's power—power that is seated far above all rule, authority, and dominion. Learn how to humbly rely on Christ as the King overall and ensure you do not abandon the love you had at first.

Pastor Nate explores the spiritual blessings promised in Ephesians 1:7-14. The message is structured around two key ideas: "redemption realized" and "fullness ahead". Redemption is realized because believers receive the forgiveness of their trespasses through Jesus’ blood, a complete and final cancellation of the debt, granted according to the riches of his grace. The second point, "fullness ahead," assures listeners that history is moving toward a climax where all things will be united in him. This future inheritance is guaranteed for believers who are sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise. Pastor Nate challenges believers to continually grow and live for the praise of God's glory and invites non-believers to receive this redemption by admitting their sin, believing in Jesus' substitutionary work, and confessing him as Lord.
