  • Forgive Us Our Debts
    Have you ever had a debt forgiven? Paying off a debt feels good. Having someone look at what you owe and say "it's taken care of" is something else entirely. In this message o

  • Our Father in Heaven, Hallowed Be Your Name
    What does it mean to call God our Father? In the opening words of the Lord's Prayer, Jesus invites us into something remarkable: a relationship with our heavenly Father. Through Christ, we are welcomed into God's family. We can approach him with both confidence in his love and reverence for his holiness. In this message from And So We Pray, we explore what it means to pray “Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name.” Jesus teaches us that prayer begins by recognizing who God is. His name is holy, and he deserves our praise and honor. Our worship extends beyond our words as we seek to reflect his character in the way we live and treat others. When life is difficult, when we don't understand our circumstances, or when we struggle to find the right words, we can begin with praise. We can call on our Father, trusting that he hears us and welcomes us through Jesus. You don't need perfect words to pray. You can begin by remembering who your Father is. As we continue our 40 Days of Prayer, consider how you can make room to talk with God throughout your everyday life. Scripture: Matthew 6:9–13 Series: And So We Pray

  • And So We Pray...
    What is prayer, and why does it matter? Have you ever wanted to pray but struggled to find the words? In this week's message, we begin And So We Pray, a series exploring the prayer Jesus taught his disciples. Throughout the Gospels, we see Jesus make prayer a regular part of his life. He prayed at important moments in his ministry, spent time with his Father, and taught his followers how to pray. Prayer is more than asking God to change our circumstances. It's an invitation to know him more deeply, bring him our fears and anxieties, and trust his presence in every season of life. As we begin 40 Days of Prayer, we're inviting our Trinity family to grow together in prayer. Join us as we learn from Jesus, pray for one another, and grow closer to our heavenly Father. Scripture readings: Luke 3:21–22, Luke 4:1–2, Luke 6:12–13, Luke 11:1–4 In this video: Worship music, Scripture readings, prayer, and the message. Take part in 40 Days of Prayer: - Worship with us each week as we explore the Lord's Prayer. - Follow along with the 40 Days of Prayer guide and pray for our Trinity family. https://www.morelikejesus.church/AndSoWePray

  • Revival
    There are probably things in your life you wish you could reset. A decision you wish you could undo. A sin you wish had never happened. A moment you wish you could go back and change. In this message from Romans 6, we explore baptism and the new life God gives us in Christ. Baptism joins us to Jesus in his death and resurrection, giving us a new identity and a new way of living. The old has died. Something new has come alive. Sin still wages war in us, but it no longer gets to define who we are. Through baptism, our identity is found in Christ.

  • Renewal
    Something is always shaping us. In this message from Romans 12, Roy explores Paul’s call to “be transformed by the renewing of your mind.” What we listen to, watch, read, believe, and who we surround ourselves with all play a part in shaping how we see ourselves, our neighbors, the world, and God. But renewal in Christ is something we experience together. Roy challenges us to let God’s Word and Spirit reshape our minds, to see ourselves through God’s eyes, and to recognize that we need one another as the body of Christ. The question is simple: What is renewing your mind?

  • Restart - Your Past Vs. Your Future
    How much should your past shape your future? In Acts 9, Saul has a reputation for hurting Christians and opposing Jesus. Then, on the road to Damascus, Jesus meets him and changes the direction of his life. Saul’s story does not erase what happened in his past. The damage was real, and so were the reasons people were afraid of him. But his past did not have the final word. Our past may tell the truth about what we’ve done, but it does not get the final word about who we are. That final word belongs to Jesus. Through Saul, Ananias, and Barnabas, this message explores the mercy of Jesus, the reality of repentance, and the people God uses to help us step into a new future. If Jesus could transform Saul from an enemy of the church into the Apostle Paul, we can trust that his mercy is powerful enough to meet us wherever we are.

  • Reset
    What does it mean to reset when life has taken us somewhere we never meant to go? This week at Trinity, we begin "Reset", a new sermon series about the ways God meets us when we need to return, restart, and be renewed. We begin with one of Jesus' most familiar stories: a son who believes life will be better away from his father. He leaves home, loses what he has, and eventually comes to his senses. With nothing left to prove, he gets up and goes home. But the real surprise in the story is waiting for him there. His father sees him while he is still far away, runs to meet him, embraces him, and welcomes him home. The son expects judgment. Instead, he finds grace. In this message from Luke 15:11–24, we look at what happens when we recognize where our path is taking us and turn back toward God. Every true reset begins with the grace of a Father who welcomes wandering children home. As we begin this new series, we are reminded that following Jesus is not about pretending we have never wandered. It is about learning to recognize when we have drifted, turning back toward God, and receiving the grace he freely gives. Luke 15:11–24

  • Grace at the Table
    What happens when God's people gather around the Lord’s Table? In this message, Grace at the Table, we explore the meaning of the Lord’s Supper and the extraordinary gift it represents. Through Jesus, we are reconciled to God, forgiven through his sacrifice, and welcomed into a restored relationship with our Creator. The Lord’s Table also reminds us that we are not Christians in isolation. Paul writes that although we are many, we share one loaf and are one body. The meal draws us back to Christ and to one another. As Trinity closes the Life Together series, this message points to the foundation that holds the church together: Jesus Christ. He is the one who invites us to his table, gives himself for us, and continues to gather his people in every season. 1 Corinthians 10:16–17 Romans 5:1–11 Grace at the Table
