Mike Harrelson - November 30th 2025

Jesus still invites ordinary people to “come and see” who He truly is.

In this message, Mike invites us into the heart of evangelism—not as a pressured task for “professionals,” but as a simple, relational invitation to “come and see” Jesus. Through his own story of searching, doubt, near-death moments, and finally encountering Jesus in Scripture, Mike shows how God uses ordinary people and ordinary conversations to reveal Himself in extraordinary ways.

We looked at the story of Philip and Nathaniel in John 1 and how Jesus meets people personally, sees us fully, and knows us deeply. Mike cast vision for our church entering a season of prayer and invitation as we prepare to launch Alpha Temecula in February 2026—a safe place for exploring life, faith, and the person of Jesus.

This message calls our church to pray boldly, love people well, and trust Jesus with the work only He can do. There is no one like Him, and there is no greater gift we can give than an invitation to meet Him.

Tom Logue - November 23rd 2025

You can’t have too high a view of marriage—but your view of the kingdom must be higher.

This week, Tom continues our King and His Kingdom series in Matthew 19:1–12 (Part 2), pressing into some of the most sensitive topics of our cultural moment: marriage, divorce, gender, sexuality, and singleness. He shows how Jesus confronts trivial divorce and a culture that degrades women, revealing a God who dignifies and defends them. Tom also addresses gender dysphoria with both clarity and compassion, insisting that birth gender matters because God lovingly assigns it, and that the remedy is not hardening our hearts but yielding them to the Maker’s hands. Finally, he unpacks Jesus’ affirmation of celibacy and singleness as a gift—“better seats in the house” for undivided devotion to Christ—and calls us to see that whether married or single, the point is not our status but His kingdom.

A soft heart welcomes the kingdom — a hard heart keeps it out.

This week, Tom continues our King and His Kingdom series in Matthew 19:1–12, where Jesus is confronted about marriage, divorce, and sexuality. In a culture — ancient and modern — that treats people and marriage as disposable, Jesus calls us back to God’s original design: one man and one woman, united in covenant, not consumerism. Tom exposes how hardness of heart keeps us from being formed by God, and how the softness of surrender leads to real freedom. From Play-Doh analogies to powerful truths about covenant love and sexuality, this message challenges every listener — married or single — to yield to the Artist’s hands and trust His good design.

You’re already training for something — the question is, what goal are you straining toward?

This week, Jarek pauses our King and His Kingdom series to share from 1 Timothy 4:6–11, a message birthed in prayer about what it truly means to “train yourself for godliness.” Using Paul’s athletic metaphor, Jarek explores how spiritual formation, like physical training, requires diet and exercise — being nourished by the Word and strengthened through discipline. He contrasts legalism (trying to earn God’s love) with training (responding to His love), inviting us to examine what we’re ultimately living for. Whether you’re in a season of growth or recovery, this message calls us to a life of perseverance, love, and purpose — straining toward the crown that lasts forever.

God forgives 10,000 talents — and forgiven people forgive.

This week, Tom continues our King and His Kingdom series in Matthew 18:21–35, where Jesus teaches what forgiveness actually is, and what reconciliation actually requires. Using the parable of the unforgiving servant, Tom shows how forgiveness is not pretending nothing happened — forgiveness is paying the debt yourself instead of making the other person pay. He also unpacks why reconciliation requires both ingredients: repentance + forgiveness… not one without the other. This message calls us out of pride, bitterness, tally-keeping, and “they owe me,” into the freedom and humility of the gospel — where God cancels our unpayable debt through Christ, and empowers us to extend that same mercy toward others.

Tom Logue - October 26th 2025

In Jesus’ family, loving discipline restores straying sheep and protects the flock.

This week, Tom continues our King and His Kingdom series in Matthew 18:15–20, walking through Jesus’ four-step process for church discipline within His church (ekklesia). He contrasts biblical friendship (top-shelf friends who love you enough to help you fight sin) with worldly friendship, warns how bitterness is poison, and explains what Jesus means by “binding and loosing” and “where two or three are gathered” in the context of restoring a brother or sister. The goal is never punishment—it’s repentance, reconciliation, and restoration.

The Father’s heart is for every lost, wandering, and wounded child to come home.

This week, Mike continues our King and His Kingdom series in Matthew 18:10–14, revealing the Father’s relentless love through the parable of the lost sheep. Using vivid stories—from Disney World to the shepherd’s care for fallen sheep—Mike paints a picture of a God who guides, protects, restores, and rejoices over His children. Whether you’ve wandered, wondered, or fallen flat on your back, the good news is that the Good Shepherd sees you, pursues you, and longs to bring you home.

Jarek Berga - October 12th 2025

Jesus calls us to cut off what will destroy us and humble ourselves like children.

This week, Jarek continues our King and His Kingdom series in Matthew 18:1–9, where Jesus confronts our obsession with greatness and status. Using vivid imagery about cutting off limbs and gouging out eyes, Jesus invites us to take sin seriously—not by mutilation, but by transformation. Eric unpacks how the way of the kingdom is not about achieving significance but embracing insignificance, humility, and dependence. Through personal reflection and the story of King Edward VIII, he reminds us that we all have “letters” from Jesus warning us to address what could otherwise destroy us. True greatness comes not from power or perfection, but from learning to be lowly, repentant, and teachable like a child.

Josh Lewis - October 5th 2025

The church is not a business or a building — it’s the dwelling place of God’s presence.

This week, pastor Josh Lewis visits us from our sister church, Anthem Denver, and teaches from Ephesians 2:19–22, calling us to rethink what “church” really is. God isn’t inviting us into a club or a consumer experience but into His family and temple — a people built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets with Christ Himself as the cornerstone. Josh shows how God’s presence dwells uniquely when believers gather and how that truth should lead us to prioritize, participate, and repent. Church isn’t about passive attendance; it’s about becoming God’s living house together.

Tom Logue - September 28th 2025

Jesus knows, reigns, loves, and provides — offering a greater freedom than self can give.

This week, Tom continues our King and His Kingdom series in Matthew 17:24–27, where Jesus instructs Peter to find a coin in a fish’s mouth to pay the temple tax. Through this surprising story, Tom unpacks four stunning truths about Jesus: He knows what we need before we ask, He reigns over all creation, He limits His own freedom for the sake of others, and He provides exactly what is needed. This passage ultimately points to the gospel — that Christ has paid our unpayable spiritual debt and invites us into a freedom far greater than living for ourselves.
