This week, Pastor Josh speaks on just a few of the words for "praise" in scripture and how these words are very demonstrative action words. In this message, Josh shares how freedom and breakthrough can sometimes come through the intentional surrender of our praise, especially in hard times.

This week, Lead Pastor Josh Thompson shares on "The Fear Of The Lord". This message brings a challenge: In our love of Jesus, do we fear God? Are we working out our salvation with fear and trembling? Is there compromise and willful sin in our lives or are we dedicated to the Lord? Pastor Josh defines what the fear of the Lord means from scripture and challenges the listener to live your life according to God's Word. Recorded at Hope Church in Springfield, MO.

This week, Pastor Steve shares from the book of Revelation and Hebrews. What should we focus our life on? What motivates our efforts and what measures our work? What matters most?

This Sunday's message centers on the Holy Spirit as a person, who is real and empowers us to live in freedom and identity God designed for us as sons and daughters. As we see in Romans 8, there is no condemnation in Christ and life in the Spirit empowers us to live beyond our own strength and abilities. As we die to our flesh and walk by the Spirit, we step more full into what the Lord has designed for us.

This Sunday’s message invites us to look beneath the surface of our spiritual lives and ask how deeply we are planted in God. Like strong roots that nourish and steady a tree, our connection to God through His Word brings stability, life, and fruitfulness. Psalm 1 reminds us that those who remain rooted in the Lord flourish in every season, because they continually make space for Him to work within them.

This Sunday we kicked off our 21 Days of Prayer and Fasting with a call to stir up a deeper hunger and thirst for God. This message reminds us that fasting is not about what we’re giving up, but about who we are pursuing.

In a world full of temporary returns, Scripture points us to the one investment that never fails. God has invited us into a living hope through Jesus Christ, a hope anchored in Him and the promise of eternal life. When we place our hope fully in Him, we are promised a return that lasts forever. Jesus is worth everything, and He alone is worthy of our hope.

The Christmas story is bigger than we often imagine and closer than we realize. In this message, we explore how the God who created the universe chose to step into our world because of His great love for us. Through the birth of Jesus, we see God making a way to dwell with humanity and personally engage our lives. The story of Mary reminds us that God guides ordinary people into extraordinary moments. There is an invitation to see both the vastness of God’s plan and the nearness of His heart.

Nothing is impossible with God. In this message, we are invited to trust what God has spoken and to rest in his timing. Our hope is not in outcomes but in the Lord himself. Waiting is not punishment. It is often preparation. Throughout Scripture, we see that the way we respond to what God says shapes our faith and draws us closer to him.
