Packinghouse Podcast

Packinghouse’s Sunday morning worship service from April 19, 2026.

Acts 20:24 becomes a defining lens for understanding a life that is steady, surrendered, and rooted in the grace of God. As Paul faces uncertainty, suffering, and even death, he declares that none of these things move him because his life is no longer his own—his aim is simply to finish his course with joy and faithfully testify to the gospel.

This message explores how that kind of stability is formed, not through ease but through trials that deepen dependence on God, reminding us that nothing we face is outside His control or beyond His sustaining grace. Rather than resisting hardship, believers are invited to see it as part of God’s shaping work, producing endurance and maturity. In the end, a life anchored in Christ is not defined by comfort or circumstance, but by a steady resolve to walk faithfully with Him and finish well. - Don McClure - Sunday, April 19, 2026

Revelation 17 | Pastor Rick

Revelation 17 reveals a powerful but deceptive world system—symbolized by the great harlot—that blends false worship, cultural influence, and political power while leading people away from God; though it appears attractive and successful on the outside, it is deeply corrupt and even opposed to Christ, reminding us that we must learn to discern truth and not be shaped by what merely looks good or popular. As the chapter unfolds, we see that this system is temporary and ultimately self-destructive, and in the end the Lamb, Jesus Christ, overcomes it all, reinforcing the call for believers to stay faithful, stay grounded in God’s Word, and anchor their lives in what is eternal rather than what God has already declared will fall. - Rick Cornejo - Sunday, April 19, 2026

Revelation 15-16 | Pastor Rick

Packinghouse’s Sunday evening worship service from April 12, 2026.

Revelation 15–16 pulls back the curtain on how history will ultimately end, reminding us that what may seem chaotic or terrifying is actually the unfolding of God’s perfect and purposeful plan. Through vivid imagery of final judgment, we see that God is not acting randomly or out of uncontrolled anger, but in righteous justice—bringing sin to account while securing His people, who stand victorious and worship Him, knowing the outcome is already settled.

This message highlights both the seriousness of rejecting God and the assurance believers have in Christ. Even as judgment intensifies, the repeated refusal of people to repent reveals the depth of the human heart, while the faithfulness of God remains constant. For those who belong to Him, there is no fear—only confidence, because we know how the story ends. - Rick Cornejo - Sunday, April 12, 2026

Acts 7 | Greg Opean

Packinghouse’s Sunday morning worship service from

Stephen’s defense in Acts 7 is far more than a response to accusations—it is a powerful reminder of how God works beyond the limits we often place on Him. By walking through Israel’s history, Stephen reveals a consistent pattern: God sends deliverers, and His people resist them, missing what He is doing because their hearts are fixed on traditions, systems, or expectations rather than on Him.

This message challenges us to recognize how easily we can “box in” God—limiting Him to certain places, people, or methods—while He is actively moving in ways we might not expect. Through examples like Joseph, Moses, and ultimately Jesus, we see that God’s work is not confined, and that rejecting His movement often comes from misplaced devotion or spiritual blindness. - Greg Opean - Sunday, April 12, 2026

Packinghouse’s Wednesday night worship service from April 8, 2026.

The story of Joseph and his brothers in Genesis 42 reveals how God is at work even in the middle of confusion, guilt, and hardship. As famine drives the family to Egypt, old wounds resurface and hidden sin is brought into the light, yet behind it all, God is positioning events for restoration and rescue. What looks like pressure, accusation, and uncertainty is actually the beginning of healing, as Joseph wisely leads his brothers toward repentance and freedom. Through Joseph’s story, we’re reminded that God is not working against us, but for us, even when the circumstances feel overwhelming and unclear. A powerful encouragement that when everything seems to be falling apart, God is still in control, weaving every detail together for good, and inviting us to trust His heart even when we cannot see His hand. - Greg Opean - Wednesday, April 8, 2026

Resurrection Sunday

Packinghouse’s Sunday morning worship service from April 5, 2026.

The resurrection of Jesus is not only the defining moment of the gospel—it is the answer to our worry, our fear, and our unbelief. In Mark 16, we follow the women to the tomb carrying questions and grief, only to discover that the stone has already been rolled away and the grave is empty. What they expected to be the end was actually the beginning, revealing a God who goes before us and takes care of what we cannot.

This message unpacks three honest struggles we all face—worry over what we can’t control, fear of what we don’t understand, and unbelief even when truth is right in front of us. Yet right in the middle of it all is grace: Jesus meets doubting disciples, restores failures like Peter, and chooses the unlikely to proclaim His resurrection, showing that our weakness never disqualifies us from His love.

A powerful reminder that the risen Christ is still rolling stones away, still calling us by name, and still inviting us to believe, be restored, and walk in the freedom of new life. - Ed Rea - Sunday, April 5, 2026

Sunrise Service

That silent, heavy darkness of Friday and the emptiness of Saturday gave way to a Sunday morning that changed everything forever—Jesus is not in the grave, He is risen, just as He said . The stone wasn’t rolled away to let Him out, but to let us see that death had been defeated and that no burden, no sin, and no situation is too heavy for God to move.

Because of the resurrection, your past is forgiven, your present is empowered, and your future is secure in Him. So don’t stay stuck in fear or silence—go all in, hold onto what He has said, and walk forward with both reverence and joy, knowing that the risen Jesus meets you as you step into what He’s called you to do.

Matthew 27:45–54

Good Friday

Today we slow down and remember what our sin cost Jesus, seeing not just the event of the cross but the depth of His love in it. In the darkness, in His suffering, and even in that cry of “My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me,” we see that Jesus willingly took on what we deserved so that we could be forgiven and brought near to God .

And when He declared “It is finished,” the price was fully paid—our sin covered, the veil torn, and the way opened for us to come directly to God. The cross is not just a moment of suffering, it is the clearest picture of God’s love, reminding us that we are fully forgiven, deeply loved, and invited into relationship with Him. - Ed Rea - Friday, April 3, 2026

Packinghouse’s Wednesday night worship service from April 1, 2026.

Joseph’s story reminds us that even in betrayal, injustice, and seasons that feel forgotten, God is still present and at work. Though his life was turned upside down—from favored son to slave to prisoner—God was with him every step, shaping his character, growing his faith, and positioning him for something greater than he could see in the moment .

What looked like delays and setbacks were actually part of God’s timing, preparing Joseph to step into purpose at just the right moment. This passage calls us to trust God in the middle of uncertainty, knowing that no season is wasted and that He is always working behind the scenes for something greater. - Greg Opean - Wednesday, April 1, 2026

PALM SUNDAY

On Palm Sunday, Jesus entered Jerusalem on a donkey, showing He came not as a conquering king, but as a Savior dealing with sin, not politics. The crowd celebrated, but didn’t fully understand that He was moving toward the cross, where real salvation would be accomplished.

Jesus then makes it clear that true life comes through surrender—like a seed that must die to bear fruit—calling us to follow Him by laying down our own lives and trusting Him with what comes next. - Ed Rea - Sunday, March 29, 2026
