In this message, we kick off our new series “Lettuce Lessons” in Genesis 1:26–28, focusing on God’s words, “Let us make man in our image.” It’s all about the value of your life—you’re an image-bearer of God, created on purpose and with purpose, and the gospel shows just how deeply God values you.

Hebrews 12 reminds us that the Christian life isn’t a casual stroll—it’s a race that requires endurance. In this message, we talk about how to rebuild spiritual stamina when you’ve been worn down: laying aside the weights that hinder you (even if they aren’t “big sins”), finding fresh motivation to run for God’s glory, and establishing a fixed point by locking your eyes on Jesus. If you’ve felt spiritually tired, distracted, or close to bowing out, this sermon is a call to keep running—and run well.

As we step into a brand new year, it’s easy to hit the ground running—busy, loud, and full of plans. But what if the most needed discipline isn’t doing more… it’s being still? From Psalm 46 and Psalm 62, this message calls us back to the lost practice of stillness—active waiting that helps us notice God’s work, hear His whisper, surrender control, and grow real trust as we pour our hearts out before Him.

In Acts 16, Paul and Silas teach us that the darkest moments are often the doorstep of God’s greatest work. As midnight falls in a Philippian prison, God not only shakes open the doors—but opens a jailer’s heart to new life. This message explores how God meets us in the deepest night, shifts our story, and brings a new day and a new beginning when we least expect it.

Paul and Silas transformed a jail cell into a place of praise—and God moved in power because of it. This message shows that true worship isn’t tied to our situation but to who God is. Even in our darkest hours, authentic worship draws in His presence, stirs the heart, and proclaims a freedom no chains can contain.

Let's dive into the story of Paul and Silas—two men beaten, chained, and thrown into prison for obeying God. What do you do when God’s plan doesn’t feel like a good plan? When the doors you wanted to walk through close and life takes a painful turn? This message reminds us that even when we can’t see it, God’s redirection is His protection—and that sometimes your breakthrough is waiting on the other side of midnight.

Let's explore one of Scripture’s strangest moments—when King Saul, desperate to hear from God, turns to a medium to summon the prophet Samuel from the dead. What follows is a sobering reminder of how disobedience and desperation can lead us into dangerous territory. This message confronts the lure of darkness, the reality of spiritual warfare, and the importance of trusting God even when He seems silent—because while the enemy’s power is real, our God reigns supreme over every realm.

Feeling like your trust has been shaken? 💔

This week’s message walks through David’s story in Psalm 56 and shows how to heal from trust trauma. When people fail you or life feels unstable, you can still anchor your heart in God’s character, strength, and Word—because He’s faithful, He’s near, and He’s for you.

What does kindness look like in the kingdom of God?

This week’s message, Kingdom Kindness, looks at David’s compassion toward Mephibosheth in 2 Samuel 9—a powerful picture of God’s grace toward us. When we were broken and undeserving, Jesus sought us out, spared our lives, and gave us a seat at His table. Now, we’re called to show that same kindness to a world that’s hurting.

A powerful finale to the Vine Life series from Psalm 1: the truly “fine life” is the one rooted in Christ. When we abide in Him, our lives are rooted in everlasting life, filled with divine purpose, and prosper in spiritual fruitfulness. Like a tree planted by streams of water, the believer thrives—not because of circumstances, but because of the life of Christ within. It’s not about success the world defines, but about flourishing in the will of God. The vine life really is the fine life.
