The biggest danger that Christians have with Easter is becoming so familiar with the story of Jesus' resurrection that we forget the power it holds not only in the past, but in the present and the future. In this episode, Pastor Chris Kipp preaches an Easter message from 1 Corinthians 15:1-8. Chris reminds us of the facts of the resurrection and why they are essential for us both now and forever.

Do you ever find yourself wondering if some people are simply too far gone for God to reach? As Christians, we often say, "Nothing is impossible with God," yet deep down, we wrestle with doubt.

In his sermon, "No One Is Too Far Away," Pastor Chris Kipp unpacks 1 Kings 17:17-24, which tells the story of the first resurrection recorded in the Bible. Through Elijah’s bold faith and fervent prayer, we see a powerful reminder that no one is beyond God's reach. Chris challenges us to follow Elijah’s example—lifting our faith, crying out in prayer, and believing in Christ’s power to transform even the most unlikely lives.

Fasting is a powerful yet often overlooked spiritual discipline in modern Christianity. However, Jesus said "when you fast," not "if you fast," emphasizing its importance. It’s time to rediscover fasting as a spiritual weapon.

In this episode, special guest Jim Stern teaches on “Fasting as Breakthrough” through the story of Jehoshaphat in 2 Chronicles 20:1-19. Jim openly shares his past struggles with pornography and how God used fasting to break the cycle of sin in his life. He offers practical advice and a biblical challenge to embrace fasting for spiritual freedom and transformation.

We have a complicated, often dysfunctional relationship with our work. We can bow down to the idols of achievement and career, letting work consume our lives. Or, we can view work as something to be avoided if possible. But, the Proverbs give us a refreshingly honest and redemptive understanding of work.

In this episode, Pastor Chris Kipp continues our series on Proverbs with the message "Wisdom For Your Work". Chris points us to the Biblical wisdom of working hard and working smart, and working with both diligence and excellence, while avoiding burnout and laziness. Finally, Chris lands with the grace of God that works in us in our work.

We could all use some more widom, couldn't we? In this episode, Pastor Chris Kipp begins a new series on Proverbs and teaches a message entitled "Wisdom & The War Against Temptation". Temptation is common to all people and each one of us will face it repeatedly in our lives.

Temptation seeks to entice not just into a one-time failure, but to a whole path of destruction. Wisdom, however, is God's gift to reveal to us the path of life. Wisdom is God's gift to us to help us win the war against Temptation.

"Multiplication" might sound like an esoteric Biblical idea, the hobby-horse of a certain type of church or pastor. However, multiplication is actually found in the very first chapter of the very first book of the Bible and the word, in some form, occurs 247 times in the Bible. Multiplication is found all over our Bibles. But, what does it mean and how does it help us understand God's intention for His church?

In this episode, Pastor Chris Kipp teaches on "The Multiplication Miracle" from Matthew 14:13-21. Using the famous feeding of the 5000, Chris looks at it from the disciples perspective, calling us to embrace both the blessing and the breaking of Jesus and to trust that there will be more, and not less, in the end.

The Christian has access to something that no one else on Earth has access to. It's something that no other religion can provide, no amount of money can buy, no incantation or ritual could secure. It is the reserved for the sincere believers in Jesus. It is the presence of God.

In this episode, Pastor Chris Kipp teaches from Exodus 33:1-17 on "The Presence of God". Chris challenges us to reorient our lives toward God's presence, to prize and pursue it, and to draw near to Him with sincere hearts.
