The man who found the treasure sold everything, and he did it in his joy.

In this sermon from Matthew 13, we ask the question these two parables will not let us avoid: what are you not willing to sell? Most of us believe the treasure is real. The problem is we keep finding reasons to hold something back.

This sermon is for anyone who has been circling the field for a long time without buying it. The joy is on the other side of the surrender.

Why does genuine transformation feel so slow?

In this sermon from Matthew 13, Jesus answers that question with two surprising parables: a mustard seed nobody wanted in their field, and leaven hidden in three measures of flour. Instead of the cedar tree and conquering king his audience expected, Jesus describes a kingdom that begins small, works secretly, and transforms everything it touches from the inside out.

This sermon is for anyone in the hidden season who has genuinely turned to Christ but cannot yet see the fruit and is starting to wonder if anything is actually happening. The leaven is already working. The seed is already in the ground. What the Son of Man plants does not fail to grow.

We examine the core doctrinal differences between LDS theology and historic Christianity. While we use the same vocabulary, God, Jesus, salvation, etc, the meanings are fundamentally different.

Topics covered: the nature of God, Father, Son, Holy Spirit, salvation, human destiny, and much more.

Our goal: equip Christians to engage these critical differences with both truth and love.

In this sermon from Matthew 13, we look at how the enemy sows, through people, through distorted doctrine, and through an atmosphere of spiritual inattention, and why God's patience with the field is not the same as his approval of what's growing in it. We also ask the question the parable will not let us avoid: not who around you might be a weed, but what you are.

Are Mormons Christian? They use the same words, God, Jesus, salvation, but mean completely different things.

In Part 1, we examine Mormonism's origins: Joseph Smith's visions, the golden plates, the Book of Mormon, and the doctrine of living prophets. We also explore controversial revelations that kept changing when circumstances demanded it.

Every claim is sourced directly from official LDS materials. This is Mormonism explained using Mormon sources.

Hearing the gospel is not the same as believing it. In the Parable of the Sower, Jesus exposes the dangerous assumption that proximity to the truth equals possession of it, and shows us that the only evidence of genuine faith is fruit. Three soils hear the word but end in disaster; only one bears the fruit that proves saving faith.

Most of us have collapsed the distinction between knowing Jesus and belonging to Him; we assume proximity, heritage, and familiarity are enough. In Matthew 12:46-50, Jesus uses a real-time moment to issue a verdict on the Pharisees (and us): the family of God is not defined by bloodline or religious credentials, but by doing the will of the Father.

Most Christians have experienced a moment of the Spirit's presence, but few are living in the sustained, daily fullness God intended for every believer.

In this final message of our Holy Spirit series, we walk through Romans 12:1-2 to discover how surrender produces revival, conformity kills the fire, and the Spirit renews everything from the inside out. We are challenged to stop settling for a low-grade spiritual life and start walking in continuous renewal and revival.

Spiritual gifts are one of the most divisive topics in the modern church. In this message, we examine Acts 2 and 1 Corinthians 12-14 to answer: What does the Bible actually say about the baptism of the Spirit and the gifts? Discover how the outpouring is still active today, why the gifts have caused division, and how to pursue and steward them biblically, with love, order, and accountability.

The temple has been cleansed. The Spirit dwells in you. But what does He build inside? Before the Spirit releases power and gifts, He forms character.

Isaiah 11:2 gives us the blueprint, seven attributes the Spirit establishes in us so that when power comes, it doesn't destroy us. Formation sustains power and gifts.
