Jesus Culture Sacramento Message of the Week

Pastor Banning explores the connection between faith and generosity, reminding us that every seed we sow is an opportunity to trust God as our provider. When we choose to live open-handed, even in seasons of uncertainty or delay, we declare that God is faithful, His Word is true, and He is able to provide for all our needs.

In this message, Pastor Banning explores God’s desire for an intimate friendship with us through the Holy Spirit. We’re reminded that Jesus came to restore us to the fellowship God intended from the beginning and that walking with the Holy Spirit means being aware of His presence, talking with Him, and learning to lean on Him every day.

In this message, Pastor Michael Brodeur takes us through 1 Corinthians 11–12, challenging us to move from a “me” mentality to a “we” mentality as the body of Christ. Through communion, spiritual gifts, and community, we’re reminded that we were created to live connected to one another and that God’s Spirit works powerfully through a unified, diverse church.

Pastor Zack Curry, Lead Pastor of Jesus Culture San Diego, takes us through 1 Corinthians 13–15 and reminds us that the greatest measure of spiritual maturity is how we love. As we understand Scripture in its proper context and return to the hope of the resurrection, we’re invited to let the Word of God move from something we know to something that transforms the way we live.

Pastor Banning Liebscher continues teaching on generosity, challenging us to move from giving out of obligation or pressure to giving from a revelation of God’s love and goodness. A cheerful giver is not motivated by guilt or compulsion, but by a deep understanding that everything we have comes from God and that we get to partner with Him by sowing seeds for a harvest.

Generosity is more than what we give. It begins with recognizing that everything we have belongs to God and has been entrusted to us. Pastor Banning Liebscher challenges us to live open handed, trusting God as a good Father and allowing what He has given us to flow through us to others.

What does it look like to live a whole life? Deborah Giles unpacks integrity as the alignment of what we believe, value, say, and do, showing how a divided heart can leave us exhausted, anxious, and spiritually stuck. Through Scripture, community, and the work of the Holy Spirit, we can stop hiding, take responsibility for our choices, and allow God to bring wholeness to every area of our lives.

Pastor Banning reminds us that generosity is foundational to the Christian life because it reflects the heart of our abundantly generous God. As we faithfully sow seeds through radical generosity, God partners with our obedience to bring lasting fruit in every area of our lives. The question isn’t whether God will send the rain, but whether He will find seed in the field of our lives.

Teó Hayashi, Bishop of Zion Church and Founder of Dunamis Movement, shares a powerful message on living as Kingdom citizens entrusted with the keys of the Kingdom. With a passion for God’s presence and the expansion of His Kingdom, he calls us to walk in the authority Jesus has given us, bear lasting fruit, and make disciples of every nation.

Pastor Banning reminds us that worship was never meant to revolve around us, our feelings, or our circumstances, but around the One who is worthy. Throughout Scripture, God invites His people to respond with surrender, adoration, and delight as we lift our voices to Him. Worship is not about what we receive, but about giving God the honor He deserves and joining in the song of heaven.
