SunWest Church Weekly Sermon Podcast

2026-10-04: Most of us would never think of our jobs as idols. But what happens when work becomes more than something we do—when it becomes the place we look for for identity, significance, security, or worth? A good thing can quietly become an ultimate thing. As we continue our series The Other Six Days, we’ll look at what happens when work stops being a gift and starts becoming a god.

2026-09-27: We were made to work. So why does work so often leave us exhausted, frustrated, or wondering if any of it matters? From the very beginning, the Bible tells a story about work’s purpose—and why it can feel so far from what it was meant to be. Listen in as we explore what went wrong and where hope begins.

2026-09-20: What if Monday morning isn’t just about earning a living? What if God has something more in mind for the work you do every day? In this message, we’ll explore how God calls, gifts, and places each of us to serve others through the ordinary work of our everyday lives. Because God cares about more than what happens on Sunday, He cares about the other six days too.

2026-09-13: What if the biggest part of your spiritual life is the part you’ve never thought of as spiritual? We spend one day gathering at church—but the other six working, creating, studying, parenting, building, and contributing to the world around us. The Other Six Days is an invitation to discover what God has to do with the work you do, why it matters, and how even the ordinary can become sacred. Maybe your work is about more than making a living.

2026-09-06: Hebrews 11 is filled with incredible stories of people who trusted God and saw the impossible happen. But then the chapter takes a surprising turn: "There were others..." — people who had just as much faith, but experienced very different outcomes. Their stories remind us that faith isn’t measured by whether we get the outcome we hoped for, but by whether we keep trusting God when we don’t. As we close the Hall of Faith, we discover that sometimes faith gets us out — and sometimes faith carries us through.

2026-08-30: David is remembered for many things—from shepherd boy to Israel’s greatest king, from slaying Goliath to writing many of the Psalms. But this week, we’re looking at a very different side of David: how he tried every trick in the book to cover up his sin with Bathsheba.

2026-08-23: Courage isn't the opposite of fear. It's what fear looks like from the outside when someone obeys anyway. God's first instruction to Israel's new general had nothing to do with strategy and everything to do with a book. Which means the question isn't whether you're brave. It's whether you've been listening. Listen here and find out what that means.

2026-08-16: When God first called Gideon, he wasn't a warrior—he was hiding. He saw himself as weak, insignificant, and unlikely to make much of a difference, but God saw something in Gideon that Gideon couldn't yet see in himself. What if faith isn't about believing you're capable of extraordinary things, but believing that God can do extraordinary things through ordinary people?

2026-08-09: The story of Ruth begins with famine, grief, and impossible decisions, but it ends with hope that changes the course of history. This Sunday we will explore how God weaves redemption through the ordinary moments and messy realities of our lives.

2026-08-02: This Sunday, we continue our Hall of Faith series as we look at the life of Noah. Together, we’ll explore the heart of a God who grieves over a broken world, yet never stops pursuing His people. We discover that God’s delight in Noah reveals His invitation for each of us to walk closely with Him today.
