Is your life a train wreck right now? You're not too far gone. A sermon on the Prodigal Son and the Parable of the Shrewd Manager from Luke 15-16.

Kyle Harris, a longtime Bible translator in Papua New Guinea and Indonesia, looks at two parables Jesus told back to back: the Prodigal Son (the most preached parable) and the Shrewd Manager, also called the Unjust Steward (one of the least preached). Why put them together? Both stories hang on the character of the Father. Our God is a God of grace.

In this message you'll learn:

- Why letting the prodigal son leave was an act of grace

- Why the master praised a dishonest manager

- Three ways God's grace changes how we live: humble confidence, grateful obedience and forgiving others

Does God get a vote in our elections? In "God Has a Vote," Scott Schaefer opens Romans 13 to show what the Bible says about government, voting, and when Christians must obey God rather than man.

You might not do politics, but politics does you. From praying with legislators of both parties at the Iowa Capitol to the faith of Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego, this message calls the church to wake up, pray for leaders on every side of the aisle, vote, and trust God with the results.

What is truth? Pilate asked Jesus that question (John 18:38), and our culture is still asking it today. In this message from Passion Church's mission statement series, Pastor Nate Johnson walks through Romans 12:2 and shows why Christians need both God's Spirit and God's truth to be transformed, not one or the other.

In this message:

- The "silent divorce" between Word and Spirit in the church

- Why knowing truth isn't the same as being shaped by it

- Three moves in Romans 12:2: don't be conformed, be transformed, discern God's will

- Trading "my truth" for what God says about who you are

Transformation doesn't just happen during a Sunday worship service—eventually, we all have to walk outside those church doors back into the real world. So the question becomes: Who is actually leading you when you walk back into real life?

In this powerful message from Galatians 5:16–26, we explore the daily battle between the Spirit and the flesh. Willpower and self-reliance aren't enough to overcome temptation; strong flesh cannot defeat flesh. Real victory and spiritual movement happen when we choose to walk closely in step with the Holy Spirit.

Are you actually being changed by Jesus, or are you just around the things of God? In this sermon, we dive into 2 Corinthians 3 to explore the difference between external religion and internal transformation.

The Old Covenant had a fading glory, but the New Covenant brings a lasting, increasing glory through the Holy Spirit. It’s time to move past our own strength, turn fully toward the Lord, and allow His presence to transform us from the inside out.

Key Scripture: 2 Corinthians 3:7-18

In this message, you’ll learn:

• Why spiritual fruit is the true evidence of following Jesus.

• The danger of relying on your own strength to fight temptation.

• How to move from external religious rules to a heart transformed by the Spirit.

• What it means to "behold" Jesus and become like Him.

What does it really mean to follow Jesus?

In Matthew 4, Jesus approaches Peter and Andrew with two simple words: “Follow Me.” Their response was immediate—they dropped their nets, left the boat, and followed Him.

But following Jesus requires more than agreeing with what He says.

In this message from our TRANSFORMED series, we look at the difference between knowing about Jesus and actually following Him, why obedience is essential to transformation, and how the things that feel safe and familiar can sometimes keep us from responding when Jesus calls.

Following Jesus isn’t always easy—but it is simple.

The question is: Where is Jesus asking you to follow Him, and what is keeping you from responding?

Does God owe us something when we’ve been faithful? What happens when we obey Him and life still hurts?

In Because He Gave, Pastor Nate Schaefer at Passion Church explores John 3:16, God’s grace, and the foundation of Christian generosity: God gave first.

Through Jesus’ conversation with Nicodemus and His willing sacrifice on the cross, this message challenges us to stop treating giving as a transaction with God. We don’t give to earn His love, repay His sacrifice, or guarantee a life without suffering. We give because grace has made us free.

In this message, discover:

Why God’s generosity comes before our obedience.

Why faithfulness doesn’t guarantee a suffering-free life.

How control and past hurt can hold us back from generosity.

What it means to give our time, attention, hospitality, and resources.

Are you letting hidden anxiety dictate your life? In this sermon, we explore how untreated wounds—especially around finances and fear—can spread and affect every area of our lives. Drawing from Matthew 6 and Philippians 4, we discuss the importance of seeking God first, the myth that "more" will bring peace, and how to truly practice contentment.

Key Takeaways:

Why untreated worry acts like a hidden infection.

The difference between processing your problems and praying through them.

How to break the power of "more" in your life.

Why giving is the ultimate act of faith.

Scripture References: Matthew 6:25-34, Philippians 4:10-19

What if the biggest problem with your money is that you think it belongs to you?

In this message, we look at what the Bible teaches about money, generosity, stewardship, giving, and ultimately who owns everything we have.

Psalm 24 tells us that the earth and everything in it belongs to the Lord. That changes the way we think about our paycheck, possessions, savings, future, and generosity.

Biblical giving doesn't begin with a percentage—it begins with ownership.

In this message, you'll discover:

• Why God is the source of everything we have

• What biblical stewardship really means

• Why generosity is bigger than giving money to a church

• How money can reveal what we truly trust

Rendering our finances is part of surrendering our entire lives to Jesus

We'll look at Psalm 24, Deuteronomy 8:17–18, 1 Chronicles 29, and Matthew 6:19–24 to understand what Scripture says about money, generosity, trust, stewardship, and following Jesus.

The question isn't simply, “How much should I give?”

The deeper question is: Who owns what I have?
