In this Easter message, Pastor Jeremy shows how easy it is for any of us to drift—and why the answer isn’t trying harder, but choosing something deeper than happiness. When life feels out of control, joy becomes the anchor that holds. If you’ve lost it—or never really had it—this message points you back to where it’s found and what it actually means to live as a child of God.

In this Palm Sunday message, Pastor Jeremy challenges the way we think about what belongs to us — and what actually belongs to God. If He’s the author and authority of your life, then everything you have is already His… the question is whether you’re willing to release it. What is God asking from you right now — and will you actually say yes?

This past weekend, guest speaker Dr. Scott Hagan unpacked a powerful line from Psalm 42 that compares our souls to a deer desperately searching for water. What sounds poetic at first is actually a picture of drought — a deep, internal thirst that nothing around us can satisfy. Through David’s words, we were reminded that life with God isn’t just about passion or energy. It’s about a deeper longing for His presence, the one thing our souls truly need, no matter what else we have.

In the finale of our Act Like Men series, Pastor Jeremy reminds us that strength without love is failure. Looking at 1 Corinthians 13, we’re challenged to ask a deeper question: does love actually define the way we live, lead, and speak? Because at the end of the day, the real test of a man isn’t what he accomplishes, it’s how he loves the people closest to him.

In part five of Act Like Men, Pastor Jeremy lays out four clear indicators of a strong man — not culture’s version, but Christ’s: Sabbath, perseverance, humility, and service. Because the real test of strength isn’t what you build in this life… it’s what they’ll say when you’re gone.

In part four of Act Like Men, Pastor Chris reframed what strength really is. Through the story of Jabez, we saw a man who refused to let pain define him and instead built his life on blessing, presence, and protection through prayer. Because strength isn’t proven in what you can lift — it’s revealed in what you rely on.

In part three of our Act Like Men series, Pastor Jeremy reminded us that men don’t drift into strength, they fight for it. We fight for the right foundation, the right identity, and the right atmosphere in our homes. If we’re going to stand when it counts, we don’t rely on willpower, we put on the armor of God. We dress for battle daily. And we refuse to fight the enemy with timidity.

In Part 2 of Act Like Men, Pastor Jeremy pulls back the curtain on a reality most men would rather ignore—we’re not just drifting, we’re in a fight. This message exposes the subtle ways the enemy works to wear men down, distract them, and pull them off responsibility without ever sounding the alarm. If you’ve ever felt pressure, resistance, or quiet defeat creeping in, the question isn’t if you’re in the battle—it’s whether you’re fighting it the right way.

God created men with responsibility, purpose, and authority—but those were the first things the enemy went after. When we start questioning God’s Word, His work, or His worth, things quietly begin to drift in our faith, our relationships, and our work. The real question is this: what does it actually look like to act like a man in a world that keeps redefining it?

God is not just enough—He is more than enough, even in the moments that feel irredeemable. In this Revival Night message, we wrestle with grace that meets us at our lowest, a Father who still gives good gifts, and a faith that believes God can bring life where loss once defined the story. This is a powerful reminder that no past is too heavy and no situation is beyond what God can restore.
