 Pastor Mat will continue our new sermon series, Right Side Up with an exciting and uplifting message entitled, “When Good Isn’t Good Enough.”

It’s easy to think we are really good people because we go to church and practice our religion. We might be surprised to learn what God thinks. Jesus made righteousness a matter of more than just religious practices. In Matthew 5:20 he sets a high standard for righteousness. When we study the sermon on the mount we see that the true meaning righteousness is more than just religion.

Pastor Kevin will continue our new sermon series Right Side Up, with the message entitled “Redefining The Good Life.” 

We spend our lives chasing an illusion of success built on status and security. But in the Beatitudes, Jesus flips the social pyramid upside down—announcing that true human flourishing belongs to the broken and the powerless, because the good life isn't about escaping the mess, but stepping into it with radical love.

Jesus saw in Levi what everyone else had missed—a soul worth saving. This week Pastor Troy will explore how Christ reached people through grace, compassion, and relationship without ever compromising truth. In a world quick to judge and slow to forgive, we are reminded that Christ's method of love and restoration is still the most powerful way to transform lives.

In this introductory sermon for our new sermon series, we learn that Jesus didn't come to destroy the law, instead He came to fill it full of meaning. The beatitudes give added meaning to God's law and help us to understand Christianity as a heart religion. To be blessed is not to have an abundance of things but to have an abundance of grace, love, faith, peace, and truth.

Do you realize that even Jesus the Son of God grew. He grew in wisdom (mind), stature (body and reputation), favor with God, and favor with man (relationships). This sermon uses that four-part framework to challenge believers who have settled into spiritual stagnation, showing that Christian growth is not automatic it is intentional, embodied, and whole-person. Disciples do not grow by accident God has placed something valuable in every believer but it requires surrender, discipline, community, and prayer to bring it out.
