Healing Our Hurts What if your past pain is still shaping your future? This message is about healing—not just the obvious hurts, but the hidden wounds we carry through life. Betrayal, grief, disappointment, shame—these don’t fade with time. But the cross and the empty tomb tell a better story. Jesus showed us the way: He acknowledged the hurt, let go of the right to retaliate, prayed for His enemies, made room for reconciliati...

Community What if the reason you feel disconnected isn’t because God is far away—but because you’re surrounded by a crowd, not planted in a community? This week, we’re talking about how the enemy doesn’t create—he counterfeits. And one of his most convincing counterfeits is false community. From gangs to social media echo chambers, the enemy offers connection without depth, loyalty without truth, and belonging without transfor...

Peace What if peace could actually slow your progress—but without peace, you’ll never get where you’re going? In today’s message, we explore the surprising tension between pressure and peace—how both are necessary to grow. From the invention of Play-Doh to the Apostle Peter’s words during intense persecution, we learn that peace isn’t found in perfect circumstances, but in the presence of a Savior who calms both the storm arou...

Love What if love isn’t just one thing—but many? This week, we take a 360° look at love through the lens of Scripture, culture, and eternity. Just like the Inuit people have dozens of nuanced words for snow—because it’s essential to their survival—we explore how love needs nuance, too. From Greek definitions to God’s divine dilemma in the garden, we peel back layers to ask: what kind of love are you really searching for? Not a...

Healing Have you ever felt stuck in your pain, wondering if healing is even possible? In this sermon, we explore how Jesus repeatedly asked people, "Do you want to be healed?"—not because He didn't know the answer, but because healing requires a response. From the man at the Pool of Bethesda to Blind Bartimaeus, Jesus never assumed someone wanted freedom—He called them to step into it. So why do so many of us stay trapped in f...

Freedom Are you holding onto offense, replaying past hurts, or nurturing bitterness like a pet? Offense is a trap—a baited hook designed to keep us stuck. Science confirms that forgiveness improves mental and physical health, but Jesus takes it further—He shows us it’s the path to true freedom. In John 5, a man sat by the pool of Bethesda for 38 years, waiting for a miracle. When Jesus shows up, He doesn’t offer excuses—He off...

Self-Worth Is It Safe to Question Your Faith? Have you ever wrestled with doubt but felt like you couldn’t ask the hard questions? Doubt isn’t the enemy of faith—it’s often the path to deeper belief. John the Baptist and Thomas both struggled with uncertainty, yet their questions led to revelation, not rejection. This week, we’ll explore how to move from questioning our faith to questioning our doubts—and how God meets us in b...

I Fought the Law and the Law Won Are you carrying more than you should? Life can feel like a constant balancing act—until the weight becomes too much. In Exodus 18, Moses reunites with his family, only to receive a blunt but life-changing challenge from his father-in-law, Jethro: “What you are doing is not good.” Jethro’s wisdom reshapes how Moses leads, showing us that leadership isn’t about doing it all—it’s about equipping ...

No "I" in TEAM In Exodus 17, we see two powerful moments that reveal how God’s provision and victory are often tied to the people He places around us. First, at Rephidim, Israel complains about their thirst, testing God rather than trusting Him. Moses, overwhelmed by their grumbling, turns to God—who provides water from the rock at Horeb, a foreshadowing of Christ, our ultimate source of life. But right after this provision, a...

Feels Like A Con-Tentment Are you truly content, or just telling yourself you are? Do you trust God’s provision, or are you still craving what He called you out of? In Exodus 16, the Israelites had seen God’s miracles, yet they still complained, longing for the “comforts” of Egypt—even though it meant slavery. We often do the same, forgetting God’s provision and focusing on what we think we lack.  God provided manna, but He...

Belonging Have you ever walked into a room full of people and still felt alone? Or wondered why, no matter how much you do, it never feels like enough? We’re all searching for belonging, but too often, we look in the wrong places—performance, approval, relationships—only to be left feeling empty.  This week, we’re diving into what it really means to belong. John 14:18 reminds us that Jesus never leaves us searching—“I will not...

Enough is Enough Feeling stuck in what’s going wrong instead of seeing God’s provision? In this episode of Ready, Set, Let’s Go, we dive into Exodus 15:27 and the lesson of Elim—a place of rest and provision in the wilderness. Elim wasn’t just an oasis; it was a reminder that God provides exactly what we need at the right time. Join us as we explore how shifting our mindset from scarcity to trust helps us recognize His provisi...

From Bitter to Better Have you ever found yourself stuck in a bitter season, wondering if things could ever get better? In this message, we dive into Exodus 15:23-26, where the Israelites face their first test after crossing the Red Sea. Through the bitterness of Marah and the wilderness of Shur, we’ll explore how God uses moments of testing to transform our hearts, deepen our trust, and reveal Himself as the God who heals. Di...

Another Dead End Have you ever felt like God led you straight into a dead end? This week in our "Ready, Set, Let’s Go!" series, we’re exploring Exodus 14 and the moment the Israelites were trapped between the Red Sea and Pharaoh’s advancing army. It looked like there was no way out—but what if dead ends aren’t the end at all? What if they’re the perfect environment for God’s deliverance? Through this story, we’ll see how God u...

Leave the Map Behind Have you ever felt like you’re standing at the edge of something new, but the thought of leaving the familiar behind feels overwhelming? What does it mean to trust God completely when the path ahead is unclear? This week, in our new series "Ready, Set, Let’s Go!", we’re diving into the story of the Israelites’ journey out of Egypt, beginning with the critical first steps from Rameses to Sukkoth. Just as th...
