RE Sunday Sermons

The wilderness exposes what comfort hides.

In this message, we look at the three tests Israel faced in Exodus — and how they reveal bitterness, appetite, and misplaced reliance in our own hearts. But God doesn’t test to destroy — He tests to form.

Most importantly, we see how Jesus re-entered the wilderness and passed the test we could not.

If you’re walking through a desert season, this message will anchor you in the One who is the Bread, the Water, and the faithful Presence of God.

Waiting is one of the hardest—and most common—parts of life. In this message, we explore what it means to wait well through the lens of Scripture and the everyday realities we all face. From impatience and rushing God’s timing to learning how faith, love, and hope shape us while we wait, this sermon invites us to see waiting not as wasted time, but as a meaningful season of formation.

Drawing from James 5, the story of Abraham, the perseverance of Job, and ultimately the example of Jesus, we discover that patience is not passive—it’s love-fueled faith anchored in trust. Waiting well means staying rooted, resisting shortcuts, and continuing to walk with God even when the promise hasn’t arrived yet.

If you’re waiting for healing, direction, breakthrough, or fulfillment, this message is an encouragement that you’re not alone—and that some things truly are worth waiting for.

Guest speaker Jason Reynolds catches us up on where we've been in this series and how it has shown up in his life as a professional farmer.

Tune in for insightful connections and deep convictions that will inspire you to keep your gaze upward and fixed on the Father. 

In this message, we continue our series My Job Depends on AG by exploring the deeply biblical—and often overlooked—principles of rootedness and hiddenness.

Using the language of agriculture, Scripture reminds us that real transformation doesn’t begin with what’s visible, but with what’s happening beneath the surface. Just as roots grow underground long before fruit appears, spiritual growth is formed in unseen places—through humility, obedience, discipline, and abiding in Christ.

We look at how Jesus Himself lived a life of hiddenness, spending 30 years in quiet formation before three years of public ministry, and what that reveals about God’s design for lasting fruit. This sermon challenges our culture’s obsession with visibility and invites us into a slower, deeper way of following Jesus—one where character is formed before influence, and intimacy with God matters more than public approval.

You’ll hear about:

Why transformation without roots doesn’t last

The biblical connection between humility, soil, and growth

The two types of “hiddenness” Scripture speaks about

How what we sow in secret shapes what we reap in public

Why abiding in Christ is the only way to sustain true fruitfulness

If you’ve ever felt overlooked, impatient for growth, or pressured to produce before you’re ready, this message is an encouragement: what God grows in secret is what sustains us in public.

Be encouraged to slow down, go deep, and remain rooted in Jesus—the source of life, strength, and lasting fruit. 🌱
