Mission Builders

Part 1 | What the World Needs

(John 4:4-26)

We all want to know that we are loved, valued, and that there is a place where we belong. But where do we look to satisfy that longing? And what happens when the things we turn to never quite deliver what we hoped they would? As we begin our Mission Builders series, we’ll look at where lasting love and belonging can be found and why helping others discover it is a mission worth giving our lives to.

The Life of David

Part 10 | Leaving a Legacy

(1 Chronicles 28:1-10)

As David’s life comes to an end, his focus is not on what he accomplished but on what will continue after he is gone.  In a culture that encourages people to focus on themselves, David reminds us to think beyond ourselves. What legacy are we leaving? How valuable is it? Will it outlast this life? No matter who you are or what season of life you’re in, in this message we’ll learn what it looks like to leave a lasting legacy.

The Life of David

Part 9 | Crossing the Kidron

(2 Samuel 15:13-29)

What do you do when you can't undo what you've done? David was forgiven of his sins involving Bathsheba, but forgiveness didn't erase the consequences of what he did. In this message, we'll follow David as he faces the painful fallout of his own decisions. As we do, we'll find three important principles that will help you face your own consequences without losing hope and without losing faith.

Tension at Sea

(Matthew 14:22-33)

Fear comes easily. Trust doesn’t. When God calls us to trust him, it can feel impossible with so many reasons to be afraid. But what if that very tension is where God teaches us the most? This week, we’ll discover how Jesus meets us in our terror and leads us to genuine trust.

The Life of David

Part 8 | The Gift of Repentance

(2 Samuel 12:1-14)

After David's sin comes one of the most important moments in his life: Nathan confronts him. Nathan courageously speaks the truth, and David is brought face-to-face with his sin. This message will explore both the blessing of repentance and the blessing of having people in our lives who are willing to speak hard truths in love. What do you do when your sin is exposed? Our natural tendency is to excuse, justify, or minimize our sin, but healing and transformation begins when we bring it into the light.

The Life of David

Part 7 | Means to an End

(2 Samuel 11:1-17) 

Last week, we saw David at his best, showing extraordinary kindness to someone who didn't deserve it and could never repay it. This week, we'll see him at his worst. David's choices set off a chain of events that could have brought an end to everything he built. As we walk through this period of his life, we'll uncover the warning signs at every stage of his failure and how God lovingly redirects us at every step.

The Life of David

Part 6 | A Seat at the King’s Table

(2 Samuel 9:1-13) 

When faith feels weak or failures feel heavy, you might be unsure where you stand with God. Few things shape your life more deeply than uncertainty about his love. This week, we’ll see how King David showed “God’s kindness” to a man named Mephibosheth. His story illustrates how God's love for you is beyond your control.

The Life of David

Part 5 | When God Had Other Plans

(1 Samuel 7:1-16) 

We've all imagined how life was supposed to go. But what happens when the future we planned looks nothing like the one we receive? In this message from the Life of David, we'll discover why God's "no" doesn't mean He has stopped loving us, and why we can trust His heart even when we don't understand His plans.

(1 Samuel 26:7-9; 27:1; 30:3-6) 

Seasons of waiting aren't easy, but they can be seasons of incredible growth. The problem is, waiting also comes with traps that can catch you by surprise. This week, we'll see how David faced at least three of those traps during a decade of waiting. We'll explore what those same traps look like today and how to navigate them with God's help.
