Hope Live | A Vision of Glory | John 12 | Jamie Haxby

We often think of glory as something added — sprinkles on a cake, a spoiler on a car. So why does Jesus call his own crucifixion his glorification?

In this message from John 12, Jamie unpacks one of the most striking contradictions in Scripture: that the fullest revelation of God's glory didn't happen in a moment of triumph, but in a moment of utter darkness — the cross.

From the cross, we see God's love, justice, mercy, wisdom, and power all revealed at once. And that same glory — the kind that breaks into the darkest places — is available to you now, in whatever you're walking through.

Whether you're facing a difficult diagnosis, a broken relationship, or you work daily in places surrounded by pain (schools, hospitals, social care), this message is a reminder: God's speciality is manufacturing glory in the midst of brokenness. You don't have to strive to reach a better place — he brings his fullness into this moment.

In this message:

• Why the cross is the climax of God's glory, not its contradiction
• What it means that "darkness is as light" to God (Psalm 139)
• How you are called to be a missionary into dark places this week
• Why "I can do all things through Christ" is a message for people in prison — not a prosperity promise

Hope Live | A Vision of Glory | John 1 | David Ramm

In this message, we continue the “Vision of Glory” series by diving into the opening verses of the Gospel of John. Through John 1:1–18, we explore the powerful question: Who is Jesus? John reveals Jesus not just as a teacher or prophet, but as the eternal Word — present in the beginning, fully God, Creator of all things, and the light that shines in the darkness.

This teaching unpacks how John sets the stage for his Gospel like a cinematic trailer, introducing the glory, identity, and divinity of Christ before revealing His name. Discover what it means that Jesus is the source of life, why darkness cannot overcome His light, and how John’s unique perspective as one of Jesus’ closest disciples gives us deeper insight into the heart of God.

Whether you’re exploring faith, studying the Gospel of John, or wanting a clearer understanding of Jesus’ identity, this message will encourage and challenge you to see Christ in all His glory.

Hope Live | A Vision of Glory | Genesis 3 | Jamie Haxby

In this message from our Vision of Glory series, we explore Genesis 3 and the story of Adam and Eve—not just as a historical moment, but as something that still plays out in our lives every day. Why do we chase self-improvement, success, validation, or comfort… yet still feel restless?

This talk unpacks:

• How our desire for “glory” gets distorted
• The subtle voice of temptation in modern culture
• Why shame enters when we try to define life on our own terms
• The “fig leaves” we use to cover insecurity
• And the powerful truth that God is still asking: “Where are you?”

Whether you’re exploring faith, feeling stuck, or just tired of striving, this message is an invitation to come back—to rest, to identity, and to something deeper.

Hope Live | A Vision of Glory | Exodus 33 | Mark Buchanan

In this powerful teaching rooted in Exodus, we start our new series: A Vision of Glory where we explore one of the most profound and often misunderstood aspects of God’s nature: His glory. Through the life of Moses, we see how God reveals Himself—not just through what He does, but through who He is.

From the burning bush to Mount Sinai, this message unpacks the Hebrew concept of “Kavod”—the weight, substance, and tangible reality of God’s presence. Discover how God’s glory is:

• Both awe-inspiring and deeply personal
• Revealed through His character, goodness, and mercy
• Reflected in creation—and in us

We also dive into the bold moment when Moses asks, “Show me Your glory,” and what that means for us today. Are we truly experiencing God’s presence, or just settling for surface-level faith?

Drawing from passages like Isaiah 60, this message challenges us to become people who reflect God’s glory in a world filled with darkness—people whose lives draw others toward hope, transformation, and intimacy with God.

Hope Live | This is Jesus | Mark 16:1-8 | Jamie Haxby

In this Easter message from Gospel of Mark chapter 16, we explore the raw, abrupt ending of the resurrection story—and why it matters more than we think. From fear, grief, and the reality of death, to the unexpected “eucatastrophe”—a sudden, joyful turning point—this talk wrestles with life’s biggest questions: meaning, mortality, and hope.

Why do we fear death so deeply?
What if life really does have purpose?
And what does it mean if the resurrection is true—not just then, but for us now?

This message invites you into the tension the first disciples felt… and leaves you with the same question they faced:

What are you going to do with the resurrection?

Hope Live | This is Jesus | Mark 15:33-41 | Simeon Lapworth

What if the darkest moment in history was actually the beginning of hope?

In this talk, we explore Mark 15:33–41 and the powerful, unsettling reality of Jesus’ death on the cross. From the mysterious darkness at noon to Jesus’ cry of abandonment, this passage confronts us with both the weight of human brokenness and the depth of God’s love.

We also reflect on our modern world—its anxiety, disconnection, and longing for something better—and ask:
Why are we searching for hope in the past instead of the future?

Discover how this story connects to Passover, fulfills prophecy, and challenges our own expectations of God.

Jesus may not always be the Savior we want—but He is the Savior we need.

Hope Live | This is Jesus | Mark 10:13-31 | Jamie Haxby

In this message from Mark 10, we explore the striking contrast between dependent children and the rich young ruler—one group with nothing, yet receiving everything, and another who seemingly has it all, yet walks away empty.

This talk challenges the idea that we can earn our way to God through success, morality, or effort. Instead, it invites us into a posture of empty hands, deep humility, and honest desperation—the very place where God meets us.
