New Day Church

Why would a good and powerful God allow evil and suffering? It’s one of the most common objections to Christianity—and one of the most personal questions we can ask. In this message from our Defending Our Faith series, we explore what the Bible teaches about suffering, free will, God's goodness, and how even our deepest pain can point us toward hope in Christ.

Jesus: Messiah or Myth? What if the entire Christian faith rises or falls on one question? In this message from our Defending Our Faith series, we examine the evidence surrounding Jesus’ life, death, and resurrection—and why the answer matters for every person who has ever lived. Discover why Christianity is not built on blind faith, but on a truth claim that can be investigated, tested, and defended.

Why do people ignore God even when the evidence is all around them? In this message from Romans 1, Jon Watson unpacks the cost of suppressing truth, rejecting God’s design, and redefining reality — while pointing to the hope and righteousness found in Jesus Christ.

Can the Bible actually be trusted—or is it just an ancient book that’s been edited, distorted, and passed down incorrectly? In week one of *Defending the Faith*, we explore why Scripture has remained the foundation of faith for billions and what evidence supports its reliability throughout history. Whether you’ve wrestled with doubts yourself or want to be better equipped to answer hard questions, this message will challenge and strengthen your confidence in God’s Word.

What has your heart? In a world full of distractions, expectations, and endless striving, it’s easy to give our attention to everything except what matters most. This week, Pastor Andrew walks us through Deuteronomy 6:4–9 and unpacks God’s call to wholehearted devotion—a life fully surrendered to Him, shaped by His Word, and passed on to the next generation.

God doesn’t just improve broken people—He gives life to the spiritually dead. In this message from Ephesians, we’re reminded that salvation is not something we earn through effort, religion, or good works, but a gift of grace received through faith in Jesus. If you’ve ever felt like you have to clean yourself up before coming to God, this message points to the better news of the gospel: new life starts with what God has already done for you.

What if the way the gospel spreads isn’t random—but designed? In this final message of Around the Corner to Around the World, we uncover a powerful pattern woven throughout the book of Acts that still shapes the mission today. This sermon challenges how we think about our role in that mission—and what it really means to be a partner in the gospel. If you’ve ever wondered how your life connects to God’s global work, this message is for you.

The sermon emphasizes that the book of Acts ends with the word “unhindered,” showing that the gospel cannot be stopped despite opposition. Even though Paul arrives in Rome under arrest and facing limitations, he continues to boldly proclaim Jesus. The message highlights that lies may distort the truth, but they cannot prevent the gospel from advancing. It also shows that prejudice and preconceived ideas may create resistance, yet some people will still believe when they truly hear the message. Rejection is inevitable, but it does not equal failure and should not silence believers. Ultimately, the greatest danger is not opposition but silence, so Christians are called to speak boldly and trust in the power of the gospel.

When everything around us feels like it’s falling apart, it can start to look like God is losing. In this message, we walk through Acts 28:1–16 and see how God continues to keep His promises—even when crisis hits, attacks come, needs arise, timing feels off, and fear sets in. This sermon is a reminder that what we see isn’t the full story—God is still at work, and He always finishes what He starts.

When you strip everything down, one question determines whether the Christian life makes any sense at all. If death is truly the end, then trusting Christ, serving Him, and obeying Him might seem pointless. But what if the resurrection really happened—and what if it changes far more than just the future? In this Easter message, we explore why the resurrection of Jesus doesn’t just give hope for life after death—it completely reshapes the way life should be lived right now.
