In this episode, we open Romans 10 and explore what it really means to confess with our mouths and believe with our hearts. Faith is more than mental agreement with theological truths; it’s embodied trust, communion with God, and resting in His love. Too often, our image of God is one of distance, disappointment, or disinterest. But the gospel reveals a Father who runs toward His children with open arms. Together, we’ll discover how salvation is not just a past decision but a present reality: living as beloved sons and daughters, secure in Christ, and sent to proclaim His good news to the world.

Nicholas Lyn walks us through Romans 10:1-11, reminding us that salvation is not earned by works but received through faith. With clarity and compassion, he unpacks Paul’s heartfelt longing for Israel’s salvation, the misplaced zeal of works-based righteousness, and the life-changing truth that “if you confess with your mouth, ‘Jesus is Lord,’ and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.”

Whether you’re exploring faith, wrestling with doubt, or needing to be reminded of the assurance you have in Christ, this episode is for you. Nicholas doesn’t just teach theology; he helps you see how the gospel meets you where you are and invites you into deep, abiding belief.

In this week’s message, we walked through one of the most challenging and hope-filled passages in Romans. We learned that God, like a potter with clay, has the right to shape lives and extend mercy as He chooses—and yet we remain fully responsible for our response to Him. Israel’s unbelief does not mean God’s word has failed; instead, it highlights that righteousness has always been by faith, not by works or heritage. We were reminded that zeal alone cannot save us, only Jesus—the cornerstone who will never fail. As we face uncertainty, loss, or even our own striving, the call is to trust God’s goodness, rest in His mercy, and place our hope in Christ alone.

We’ve just begun the second part of our series in Romans! In this message, Zach Beaman walks us through Romans 9:1–18, helping us see God’s sovereign mercy and purpose in choosing His people.

Seek the Lost (Luke 19:1–10)
In the final message of our Values series, we look at Jesus’s mission to “seek and save the lost.” Zacchaeus wasn’t searching for salvation, just a glimpse of Jesus, but Christ had already set His eyes on him. In this sermon, we see how Jesus meets us where we are, calls us by name, takes the first step, and changes us from the inside out. Discover the good news that being “lost” is not an insult but a declaration of value, because we only search for what is precious to us.

In 1 Timothy 1:5, Paul reminds us that the goal of our training isn’t performance, programs, or polished answers... it’s love.

The goal of training is love: growing in love for God, for each other, and for the faith that sustains us through the messiness of life.

In this sermon, we unpack what it means to train believers with a pure heart, a good conscience, and a sincere faith in the middle of life’s messiness. Whether you’ve been following Jesus for decades or just started, this is an invitation to trade performance for presence and grow together toward the ultimate goal: Jesus Himself.

We all long to be loved, but many of us were never taught how to be known. In this message, Pastor JB invites us to break the relational scripts of our past and step into a gospel-shaped community marked by encouragement, presence, and grace. Through Scripture and real-life honesty, this sermon reminds us that the church is not a performance space. It is a family. And families do not function without care. Because we are fully loved by Jesus, we can love one another in everyday, intentional, and imperfect ways. This is more than a value. It is the kind of people we are becoming

In a world that pushes us toward independence, hurry, and performance, what if the Christian life was meant to be lived differently: deeply connected to Jesus and to one another? In this foundational message launching Multiply Church’s core values series, John Baker walks us through Jesus’ words in John 15 and unpacks what it means to truly “abide in Jesus together.”

You’ll discover that abiding isn’t about passivity or personal striving; it’s about presence. It’s not just “me and Jesus,” but “us and Jesus.” From Eden to eternity, God’s desire has always been presence. And in this message, you’re invited to slow down, stay rooted, and experience the joy, fruit, and witness that comes from a shared life in Christ.

Whether you feel burned out, disconnected, or longing for deeper community, this sermon offers both gospel hope and a practical invitation: make your home in Jesus, together with His people.

In this powerful and relatable sermon, guest preacher Blake Thew walks us through Proverbs 4:5-7, calling us to pursue wisdom, not the world’s version, but the kind that comes from God. With warmth, humor, and clarity, Blake unpacks the weight and worth of wisdom, showing why it’s hard to walk in it and how Christ embodied it perfectly on our behalf.

Drawing from personal stories, deep biblical insight, and practical examples, Blake reminds us that true wisdom isn’t just about knowing what to do; it’s about becoming more like Jesus. And the good news? Through the Holy Spirit, we can walk in that same wisdom today.

Whether you feel overwhelmed by the world, stuck in foolish patterns, or hungry for more of Jesus, this message will both challenge and comfort you. Listen in and discover how standing under Christ’s yoke is the very path to understanding Him and becoming wise.
