Jacob's Well Church

Speaker: Grace Subiaga, Youth Pastor
Have you ever felt lost in the dark, not sure where to find hope or clarity? In this message, "The Light of Understanding," Grace Subiaga shares the story of a blind man healed by Jesus, showing how even our toughest struggles can open our eyes to a deeper truth. Grace shows us how Jesus’s light guides us, heals us, and brings us closer to God, even when life feels darkest. You'll be encouraged to look for His light right where you are.

How angry would you have to be to throw a stone at someone’s head? In this message, we reflect on what it means to cast stones—not just physically, but with our words, actions, and silence. In a world filled with anger and fear, we often justify our stone-throwing behavior. But Jesus shows us a different way. Come and explore the powerful story of forgiveness, grace, and the wisdom to put down the stones we carry.

Title: 

Family IS complicated! Even the family of Jesus came with complex dynamics and difficulties. Join Pastor Paul, Mackenzie Fisk, and Amanda Brenden as they discuss the good and the hard of being a part of a family.

This week, Pastor Paul dives into the messy reality of family—where misunderstandings, jealousy, and rejection often hit hardest. Even Jesus dealt with complicated family dynamics, and His response offers us a powerful example. How do we set boundaries with love? How can we extend grace when family hurts us? And what does God ask of us in the middle of it all? To find out how Jesus navigated these challenges and how we can apply His wisdom to our own lives, don’t miss this week’s message—it’s one you need to hear!

There are so many good things to care about in this world, but what is the BEST thing that God is leading you to? 

In week 2 of our Close series, we explore how God is constantly speaking to us and how listening to Him transforms our lives. Using the story of the woman at the well, Pastor Paul shows how her encounter with Jesus changes everything when she opens her heart to His voice. She moves from isolation to becoming a powerful force in her community, simply by responding to God. As we gather, we expect to hear from God and be reminded that when we truly listen, He uses us in ways beyond our imagination.

Friendships, Community, Transparency, and a whole bunch more… 

Discover the closeness that God offers through Jesus as we dive into the Gospel of John. Pastor Paul explores the profound mystery of a transcendent God who became human, stepping into our world to invite us into an intimate love relationship with Him. This isn’t about rules or rituals; it's about being known, seen, and loved by God. Pastor Paul challenges us to reflect—are we close to Jesus, truly following Him, or is He a distant thought? 

Our world is full of BIG, complex, and often painful situations. How do we make sense of it all? What is Jesus calling us to? 

We are invited to explore how we can make space in our hearts and lives for the work God is doing in and through us. Drawing from the story of the woman at Jacob's Well, we see how Jesus broke through barriers to reach those on the margins and how we are called to do the same. As our church continues to grow, we are challenged to embrace stewardship—not just of our resources, but of our time, talents, and opportunities—as we create room for more people to encounter Jesus and experience life transformation.
