Part 4 of our series on spiritual gifts focuses on what we’re calling the “naturally supernatural” gifts from Romans 12:3–8. These are the grace-empowered abilities that often look ordinary on the surface — serving, teaching, encouraging, giving, leadership, mercy — but are essential to the life of the Church.

Discover how God uses your personality, wiring, and faithfulness as channels of His grace, and why recognizing these gifts is key to living as a fully engaged part of the Body of Christ.

Subtle is still supernatural.

You weren’t saved just to believe — you were saved to belong.

In Part 3 of EXTRA ordinary, we dive into 1 Corinthians 12:12–21 and explore what it really means to be part of the Body of Christ. The church isn’t just a place you attend; it’s a people you’re connected to. Different gifts, personalities, backgrounds, and stories — one body, one Spirit, one purpose.

This message tackles comparison, division, independence, and the quiet lie that says you don’t matter or don’t fit. God didn’t just rescue you from sin — He placed you in a body where your presence and your gifts matter.

Isolation can’t heal what was designed to be worked out in connection.
Parts don’t work when they’re apart.

Whether you’ve felt overlooked, disconnected, hurt by church, or unsure where you belong, this teaching will remind you that in Christ, you are not optional — you are essential.

In this message, you’ll discover:
• Why salvation connects you to a people, not just a belief
• How God intentionally places each person in the body
• Why comparison and independence weaken the church
• How unity makes room for the Spirit’s gifts to flow
• Why you belong — and why you’re needed

Are some spiritual gifts more important than others?

In Week 2 of EXTRA ordinary, we look at 1 Corinthians 12:4–6 and confront one of the most common (and damaging) misunderstandings about spiritual gifts: ranking them. The Bible is clear—there are different gifts, different ways of serving, and different ways God works, but the same God is the source of them all.

This message explores why God doesn’t give generic gifts, why comparison kills unity, and why gifts can never replace character. Whether you’re new to church, unsure about spiritual gifts, or have been around faith for years, this teaching helps ground the conversation in Scripture, humility, and real-life application.

Spiritual gifts aren’t about platform, personality, or proving yourself.
They’re about God displaying His power through ordinary people—for His glory and the good of others.

What if you don’t have to be extraordinary for God to work through you?

In Week 1 of our new series EXTRA ordinary, we open 1 Corinthians 12:1–7 to talk about the gifts of the Holy Spirit—what they are, who they’re for, and why they matter. This message lays the foundation for the entire series by addressing one of the most misunderstood parts of the Christian faith.

Spiritual gifts aren’t about talent, hype, or proving you’ve arrived spiritually. They’re moments where God lets His power and nature show up through ordinary people for His glory and the good of others.

Whether you’re new to church, unsure about spiritual gifts, or have been around faith for a long time, this message invites you to see the Holy Spirit not as something strange or distant—but as God’s EXTRA at work in everyday life.

What do you do when you come home to ruins?

In 1 Samuel 30, David returns from battle to find everything he loves gone—his home burned, his family taken, and his own men ready to turn on him. In one of the lowest moments of his life, David shows us that how we react to the ruins determines what kind of redemption story God can write.

In this message, we talk about:

If you’re walking through loss, disappointment, or a season that feels burned to the ground, this message is for you. Recovery doesn’t always mean things look exactly like they used to—but it always means God is faithful to finish what He started.

What do you do when you’re faithful… but unseen?

In 1 Samuel 16, David isn’t even invited to the meeting that changes his life. While others are evaluated based on appearance, God looks at the heart—and chooses the one no one else thought to call.

This message explores two seasons we all experience:
learning where to pour and learning how to receive.
If you’ve ever felt overlooked, uncertain, or stuck in the field, this message is for you.

God tells Samuel, “You’ve mourned long enough.”
Not because grief is wrong—but because staying stuck keeps us from obedience.

In this message from 1 Samuel 15–16, we see a powerful rhythm God invites us into:
EMPTY what no longer belongs,
FILL up with His Spirit,
and POUR into what He’s calling us to next.

This sermon explores disappointment, obedience, worship, fasting, and what it means to be filled by God before moving forward. Whether you’re carrying grief from a past season or searching for clarity in what’s next, this message reminds us: God can’t fill what we refuse to empty.

In 1 Samuel 10, Saul is anointed as Israel’s first king—but when it’s time to step up, he’s found hiding among the baggage.

In this message, we explore how fear often disguises itself as humility, how our baggage becomes a place we hide instead of heal, and why God still calls us forward anyway.

If you’ve ever felt called by God but held back by insecurity, shame, or fear—this message is for you.

“Silent Night” might be the most misleading Christmas lyric ever — because the night Jesus was born was anything but silent.
But what He brought into the world? A peace that silences guilt, shame, fear, and the noise of sin forever.
In this message, Pastor Justin unpacks how the first Christmas breaks into our chaos, why faith in Jesus pleases God, and how the finished work of the cross gives us the first truly silent night our souls have ever known.
If you’re tired, overwhelmed, or carrying noise you can’t quiet, this message is for you.

Joy to the World isn’t just a Christmas song — it’s a Kingdom announcement.
Isaac Watts didn’t write it about the manger. He wrote it about the King who reigns.

In this message we look at the true source of joy, and why “joy” is not the same thing as “happiness.” Happiness responds to circumstances. Joy flows out of relationship with Jesus and the reality of His Kingdom.

Where Jesus reigns, joy begins.
