What does it really mean to live as a citizen of Jesus’ kingdom in a fallen world?
In this message from Matthew 5:1–12, Pastor Nathan walks through the Beatitudes — the opening of Jesus’ Sermon on the Mount — showing how the call of Christ transforms our hearts, our conduct, and even how we face hardship.

Discover how kingdom character isn’t earned through effort but given through grace. Jesus shapes His followers to reflect His kingdom — poor in spirit, pure in heart, merciful, and steadfast under persecution — shining as lights in a world of darkness.

When Jesus began His public ministry, He proclaimed light in a world of darkness and called ordinary people to follow Him. In Matthew 4:12-25, Pastor Nathan shows how Jesus’ call transforms our identity and gives us a new mission—to proclaim His kingdom and reflect His light in the world.

In Matthew 4:1–11, Jesus faces the full force of temptation in the wilderness — yet where Adam and Israel failed, He stands firm. Led by the Spirit, confronted by Satan, and armed only with the Word of God, the faithful Son shows us how to fight and overcome.

In this message, Pastor Nathan unpacks how Jesus’ victory shapes our battle with sin today. We’ll see that every temptation we face—whether for comfort, control, or glory—can only be resisted through the truth of Scripture and the strength of our victorious King.

In Matthew 3:13–17, Jesus’ baptism marks the beginning of His public ministry—the moment when the King is inaugurated. As He steps into the waters of the Jordan, He identifies with sinners, fulfills all righteousness, and receives the Father’s affirmation and the Spirit’s anointing. In this powerful scene, heaven declares who Jesus is: the beloved Son in whom the Father is well pleased.

Join Pastor Chris as he unpacks this moment of divine revelation and shows how Jesus’ baptism points to our own union with Him—washed, welcomed, and sent to live under His lordship.

Suffering can feel random, even cruel — like evil is winning. But Matthew 2:13–23 shows us that even in suffering, God is not absent. From Joseph’s flight to Egypt, to the weeping of Bethlehem’s mothers, to the quiet return to Nazareth, every step of Jesus’ early life was guided by God’s sovereign hand.

In this message, Pastor Nathan unpacks how Jesus is the true Son who fulfills Israel’s story, why God preserved Him as an infant, and how this passage helps us trust God when life feels out of control. You’ll learn how to lament honestly, find hope in God’s promises, and respond with trust and obedience — even when the way forward seems uncertain. 

When the Wise Man arrived in Jerusalem asking, ‘Where is he who has been born king of the Jews?’ everyone’s sense of control was shaken — Herod responded with fear, the city with anxiety, and the religious leaders with apathy. In this sermon from Matthew 2:1–12, Pastor Nathan shows us how Jesus’ arrival calls us out of fear and into joyful worship. God sovereignly draws the nations to His Son, and He calls us to bow before Jesus, the true King, with exceeding joy.

The story of Jesus’ birth is more than a Christmas tradition — it’s the stunning announcement that God Himself has come to be with us. In this sermon from Matthew 1:18–25, we see Joseph’s dilemma, God’s clarification, and Joseph’s faithful response. Jesus’ virgin birth is not a myth to explain away but a miracle to believe — it proves that He is fully God, fully man, and the Savior who came to rescue His people from their sins.
