Have you ever felt stuck trying to make the right decision? Whether it’s about your future, relationships, or something weighing on you right now; how do you know which way to go? In Acts 1:12–26, the disciples face a major decision. But before they act, they pray, seek God’s Word, and move forward together in faith. What if the way they made decisions is *exactly* what we’ve been missing?

Pastor Kevin Queen walks through this powerful moment in the early church and challenges us with a deeper question: Are you actually letting Jesus guide your decisions, or are you just following your feelings? At the end of the day, while we make thousands of decisions every day, there’s one that shapes all the rest: Will we trust Jesus?

If you’re in a season of waiting, wrestling with uncertainty, or facing a big decision, this message will encourage you with practical truth and spiritual clarity. No matter what you’re facing, you don’t have to figure it out alone.
God isn’t trying to confuse you, He wants to lead you.

What do you do when God asks you to trust Him… but nothing makes sense? In Acts 1:4–8, Jesus gives His disciples a confusing and even dangerous command: go back to Jerusalem, the very place that just crucified Him, and wait. No plan. No explanation. Just trust.

In week two of our journey through the book of Acts, Pastor James Savage unpacks a tension we all feel: we often want clarity, but Jesus invites trust. Because every perfect plan of God isn’t initiated by people – it’s initiated by the Holy Spirit.

This message explores the real question beneath it all: not “Do I understand Jesus?” but “Do I trust Him?” And if we’re honest, many of us trust Jesus with eternity… but struggle to trust Him with our everyday lives. So what would it look like to trust Jesus with your relationships, your future, your decisions, and your identity?

What is keeping you stuck right now? So many of us want more from life; more purpose, more meaning, more fulfillment – but we often stay where it feels safe. The problem? Comfort can quietly keep us stagnant. When we let our flesh or feelings lead, we end up empty, wondering why nothing is changing.

In this message, Pastor Kevin Queen walks through Acts 1:1–3 to kick off a brand-new, year-long journey through the book of Acts. This isn’t just a study of the early church, it’s an invitation to step into the life God created you for.

The book of Acts shows us what happens when ordinary people step out of their comfort zones and begin living led by the Holy Spirit. They didn’t have influence, resources, or a strategy – just the presence of God and a willingness to follow. And it changed EVERYTHING. Because real growth, real purpose, and real impact are always found on the other side of comfort.

Have you ever been let down by someone you really trusted? That kind of pain does not just hurt in the moment. It can shape how you see every relationship moving forward. It can make it hard to trust people again, even when you want to.

Walking through Proverbs 18:13 and other key Scriptures, Dr. Henry Cloud unpacks a powerful truth. Trust is not optional. Trust fuels every part of life and every relationship. But when trust gets broken, something in us pulls back. So how does trust actually work? And how do you rebuild trust after it has been broken?

While people will fail us, Jesus never will. He understands you completely, cares deeply about you, and is fully trustworthy in every way. As you learn to trust Him more, you can also grow into someone others can trust. If you have ever struggled with broken trust, relationship pain, or knowing who to trust, this message will give you clarity and direction for what to do next.

Have you ever felt like you’ve messed up too much… gone too far… or disqualified yourself from God’s grace? Easter tells a different story. 

Pastor Kevin Queen unpacks Mark 16 where we don’t just see an empty tomb; we see a personal invitation! When the angel says, “Go tell the disciples and Peter,” it’s a powerful reminder that even the one who failed Jesus wasn’t written off. He was called by name. 

This message walks through the historical evidence of the resurrection and what it means for your life today. Because if Jesus really rose from the dead, then failure isn’t final, shame doesn’t get the last word, and your story isn’t over. Anything’s Possible!

Have you ever taken an awareness test? It’s possible to be looking right at something, and still miss it.

In Mark 15:16–47, we see a sobering moment surrounding the crucifixion of Jesus. The very people carrying out His death didn’t fully realize who He was until it was too late. Their awareness came after the fact, but what about ours?

Pastor Kevin Queen walks through this passage and invites us to wrestle with a deeper question: Are we truly seeing Jesus as King, or are we missing Him in plain sight? This was not just as a moment in history, but a personal invitation; for us to live free from shame, fully surrendered to Him.

Have you ever felt the tension of wanting to do what’s right… but also wanting to be accepted?

In Mark 15:1–15, we see Pontius Pilate caught in that exact struggle. Faced with the truth about Jesus, Pilate chooses to please the crowd instead; releasing a guilty man and sending an innocent Savior to the cross. In week 44 of our journey through the Gospel of Mark, Pastor Dustin Aagaard walks through this powerful moment and exposes a question we all have to answer: will we live for the approval of people, or in surrender to Jesus?

Jesus had done nothing wrong, He willingly took our place, because we could never save ourselves. His sacrifice invites us into a different way of living: one where faith is greater than fear, and obedience matters more than approval.

Following Jesus doesn’t always feel easy, but it leads to a deeper peace than people-pleasing ever could. So where are you still trying to gain approval instead of trusting Him? And what would it look like to fully depend on Jesus in that area of your life?

Have you ever felt the sting of betrayal or the weight of loneliness? In Mark 14:43–72, we see some of the most painful moments in Jesus’ final hours. Judas betrays Him with a kiss, Peter denies even knowing Him, and the rest of the disciples scatter. Yet even in the face of betrayal, abandonment, and false accusations, Jesus responds with grace, courage, and unwavering love.

In week 43 of our journey through the Gospel of Mark, Pastor Kevin Queen walks through this powerful passage to show how Jesus understands our deepest pain. Before He carried the weight of the world’s sin to the cross, He carried the grief of being abandoned by the people closest to Him. And still, His love never wavered.

This message challenges us with an important question: What is worth suffering for? When we make Jesus our primary passion, even the pain and failure we experience can be used for God’s purpose. The same Jesus who stood alone in the garden also restored the disciples, and continues to restore hearts today.

When life doesn’t turn out the way we hoped, what do we do with the disappointment? It’s easy to become bitter, discouraged, or even begin to question God. But what if disappointment isn’t the end of the story?

In Mark 14:26–42, Pastor Dustin Aagaard walks through Jesus’ moment in the Garden of Gethsemane, where even Jesus experienced deep sorrow and disappointment. His closest friends fell asleep when He asked them to pray, and the weight of what was ahead pressed heavily on Him. Yet in that moment, Jesus models something powerful: honesty with the Father, closeness to God in the middle of pain, and radical surrender to God’s will.

Disappointment doesn’t have to define you. Instead, it can become a signal that draws you closer to God. When we bring our hurt, questions, and unmet expectations to the Father, He can transform disappointment into deeper faith, stronger trust, and lasting hope.

What if one of the most common questions about Christianity is also one of the most misunderstood? In Mark 14:12–25, we step into one of the most significant nights in history; a private dinner that changed everything. What Jesus said and did in that room still shapes millions of lives today. 

In this message we will discover that Baptism is not about earning salvation. It’s about obedience. We will be encouraged to build our faith on surrender, rather than technicalities and we will learn that Jesus doesn’t just forgive our sin, He gives us a brand new identity.

This message tackles the tension many of us quietly wrestle with; that gap between belief and obedience. Between cultural Christianity and real surrender. Between technicalities… and transformation. Pastor Kevin Queen helps us see that this isn’t about two ancient rituals, it’s a question of whether we are building our faith on loopholes, or trust.
