This weekend, Tyler continued the Bible Study series by teaching through the book of Micah, a prophet who confronts Israel’s long history of idolatry and injustice while also pointing forward to the hope of Christmas. One of the central passages he addressed was Micah 6:8, a verse many people view as inspirational—yet in its original context, it is actually a rebuke.

Micah 6:8 reveals God’s standard for His people:

However, Tyler emphasized that Micah 6:8 ultimately exposes our inability to meet this standard on our own. Like Israel, we repeatedly fall short—no matter how disciplined, sincere, or well-intentioned we may be. This is why Micah points us beyond human effort to the coming King, the one born in Bethlehem, whose strength is divine and whose leadership is perfect.

No matter how hard we try, our efforts alone can’t reach God’s summit. We need a Savior who not only shows the way but becomes the way—lifting us, forgiving us, and leading us into the life Micah describes.

This weekend, Tyler led us in a Bible Study Weekend focusing on the book of Haggai and its timeless relevance for rebuilding our spiritual lives.

Haggai, a post-exilic prophet, was tasked with motivating the Jewish people to rebuild the temple in Jerusalem after returning from Babylonian exile. The people had begun the work but became stagnant due to opposition and fear. Haggai’s message addressed this spiritual stagnation, calling the people to:

Tyler highlighted that Haggai’s short, direct mission demonstrates a practical formula to reverse spiritual stagnation, applicable to modern struggles like sin, addiction, depression, or complacency.

This timeless message finds its fulfillment in Jesus, who keeps God’s promises, brings His presence into our lives, and frees us from the power of sin.

Will you invite God to restore your heart, renew hope, and transform your life?

This weekend, we welcomed Heather Gorman from Abilene Christian University’s Department of Bible, Missions, and Ministry, who led us in a deep dive into 2 Corinthians and Paul’s powerful message about the ministry of reconciliation.

We saw that 2 Corinthians was written amid tension, grief, and misunderstanding between Paul and the believers he loved. Yet, instead of abandoning them, Paul calls the church—and every follower of Jesus—into God’s ongoing work of setting things right in the world.

Paul reminds us that all Christians are ministers, entrusted with God’s reconciling mission: restoring right relationships with God, with one another, and with creation. This ministry often involves both suffering and comfort, hardship and hope, but it is sustained by God’s Spirit and the strength of community. Paul’s call to generosity, unity, and care for the poor reflects that reconciliation is not just spiritual—it’s tangible, lived out through compassion, justice, and openhanded love.

Ultimately, 2 Corinthians invites us to join God in His redemptive work—to be people who heal, restore, and bring peace wherever brokenness remains.

This Sunday, Terrence answered the question, “Now what?” What happens after the mountaintop moment? What does the church and each believer do next? His answer was simple yet powerful: “We stay true to God every step of the way.”

Rooted in Proverbs 4:20–27, Terrence challenges us to embrace God’s Word, guard our hearts diligently, and make faithfulness our first priority. Spiritual growth, he reminds us, doesn’t come from external success or emotional moments, but from attentiveness to Scripture, intentional holiness, and daily obedience. As a church, we’re called to ensure that our Godly ambition never outruns our Godly dependence—grounding every effort in love for Christ and submission to His Word.

Ultimately, the call is clear: do the next faithful thing. Live a life marked by integrity, repentance, and steadfast devotion.

Sunday marked The Next Ten Commitment Weekend, and we’re in awe of the way God is moving. Together, we answered a call to sacrificial generosity, to bold prayer, to missional unity, and to spiritual readiness.

Drawing from the Book of Acts, Tyler challenged us to embrace four spiritual principles:

This is the heartbeat of The Next Ten — a decade that won’t be defined by what we built, but by who was changed.

Northeast didn’t just raise money — it raised up disciples.

“You can’t force the Spirit of God to spark revival — but you can lay down dry wood, put kindling on top, and pray that the Lord sends the fire.”

This week, we were challenged to see generosity not as an obligation, but as the heartbeat of God’s greatest work—both globally and here at Northeast. We were reminded through Jesus’ parable in Luke 12 and the story of the YouVersion Bible app, that true wealth is not measured by what we store up, but by the richness of our relationship with God and our willingness to invest in His Kingdom.

For nearly 50 years, Northeast has seen God move through ordinary people who gave sacrificially, building a community where God’s grace is free and lives are transformed. Now, we’re stepping into the next 10 years with bold faith—planting new churches, expanding outreach, and creating spaces to serve a growing community.

The challenge is big, but God’s call is clear: give, grow, and go. Like Bartimaeus, let’s cry out, “Lord, don’t pass me by!” Let’s be the generation that invests in eternity, trusting God to multiply our efforts for the sake of future generations.

This Sunday, we continued our Next Ten series as Tyler shared the vision for one of our three initiatives—building a multipurpose outreach center and playground on our Brownsboro Campus to expand our impact in Louisville’s growing and diverse neighborhoods.

He highlighted three key reasons behind this initiative: our neighborhood’s rapid growth, increasing diversity, and the proven impact of outreach through sports. We also heard Jason Shreve’s powerful story of how a church gym changed his life, illustrating how sports and community can open doors to faith and belonging.

Tyler emphasizes that our greatest calling is to invest in the next generation, citing encouraging trends of spiritual revival among young people. Let’s pray, serve, and give together to shape the future of our city and unleash the love of Jesus in powerful ways.

This week, Terrence reminded us of the undeniable call for Christians to be known by their love. Drawing from Matthew 25, he challenged us to reflect on our “love life”—not in a romantic sense, but in how our faith moves us to action for others.

Jesus shows us that love isn’t passive—it’s creative, costly, deep, and sometimes uncomfortable—but it is always our calling. As a church, we’re stepping boldly into partnerships with the "church. at Bashford Manor" and their five immigrant congregations, living out the Great Commission and the Great Commandment: loving God, loving our neighbors, and serving the least among us.

The invitation is clear and urgent: join God where He is already at work, live faithfully as Kingdom people, and let your love shine as a public witness of Christ’s transforming power.

Will you join us in this prayer?

"God, whatever You are doing in this season, don’t do it without us."

This week, Tomara continued The Next Ten series, reminding us of the church’s call to multiply, make disciples, and be His witnesses. Through prayer and God’s providence, Northeast has been given the opportunity to step into its next chapter—returning to the heart of the city to plant a new campus in the Clifton/Crescent Hill area.

Rooted in the Great Commission and anchored in Jesus’ promise from Matthew 16—‘I will build my church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it’—we are reminded that church planting is central to the mission of making disciples and carrying the hope of Jesus into the world.

God has opened the door through a partnership with Barrett Traditional Middle School, where Northeast will both renovate the facility and launch a new campus to unleash the love of Jesus in that community. This vision will take every person’s time, talent, and treasure—moving us from spectators to contributors. But we must also remain watchful against the barriers that can hold the church back: religiosity, complacency, and offense. Instead, we are called to live unleashed, breaking through the gates of hell with the hope of the gospel.

Will you step into the story God is writing—so that future generations will look back and see how God built His church through our obedience today?

This Sunday, Tyler launched The Next Ten sermon series!

Now, it’s time to take the vision even further. For the next 10 years, we are stepping into three bold new initiatives:
