Sometimes the Spirit’s work doesn’t come in the spectacular, but in the interruptions we’d rather ignore. In Acts 3, Peter and John are on their way to pray when they stop for a lame man at the temple gate. What follows is both a miraculous healing and a bold witness to Jesus. Kara Moses helps us see that the Spirit still prompts ordinary people today—nudging us to pay attention, to say yes, and to trust God with the outcome. This week’s message invites us to loosen our grip on our plans and practice Spirit-led availability, because you never know what God might do through a simple act of obedience.

When we think about sharing our faith, many of us disqualify ourselves before we even begin. We assume it takes a certain kind of personality, a special set of skills, or a level of spiritual maturity we haven’t reached. But in Matthew 9, Jesus sees the crowds with compassion and says the harvest is ready, not for the experts, but for those willing to go. In this message, Pastor Jason invites us to see evangelism not as pressure, but as participation, a slow, faithful labor of love that starts right where we are.You don’t have to be a professional to point someone toward Jesus. You just need to say yes. Whether it’s your coworker, your sister, or a friend who’s walked away from church, God is already at work in their story, and he might be sending you to walk with them.

What if your story didn’t begin with shame or strength, but with Jesus? In this message, Pastor Jason explores the powerful truth behind the line from the Nicene Creed: “Through him all things were made.” From your body to your neighbor to the planet itself, everything in creation bears his fingerprints. This episode is a call to remember our Maker, reject cultural counterfeits, and reclaim our role as caretakers, not consumers of all that Jesus made and still holds together.

In a world full of fake promises and shallow saviors, how do we know who to trust? This week, Pastor Jason unpacks Hebrews 1:1–4 and the bold claim of the Nicene Creed: that Jesus is not a created being, but the eternal Son of God—begotten, not made. With stories, cultural insight, and gospel clarity, this message challenges us to reject the knockoff versions of Jesus and worship the One who alone can save.

In a world overflowing with choices, allegiances, and competing voices, what does it mean to confess, "We believe in one God, the Father, the Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth"? This week, we explore the first article of the Nicene Creed and the invitation it offers us to re-anchor our lives in the one true God. Left to ourselves, we are prone to create idols, good things turned into ultimate things that eventually collapse under the weight of our hopes. But the Creed reminds us: there are not many powers to trust, only One, and He is enough. If you’ve ever felt scattered by the noise of modern life, or frustrated by the ways lesser allegiances have hollowed out much of the church’s witness, you’re not alone. This message offers both a warning and a hope: we don't have to keep building altars to things that can't save us. We can find our way back to the Source, the Sustainer, and the only Savior who will never fail. Join us as we uncover the grace, strength, and security that come from trusting the On

In today’s teaching, we return to the empty tomb in Luke 24 to rediscover the power of Jesus’ words when everything else feels lost. Through the stories of Bonhoeffer, Polycarp, and the women at the tomb, we’re reminded that resurrection hope doesn’t begin when everything is fixed—it begins when we remember what Jesus has already said. If you’re feeling weary, uncertain, or walking through a valley, we invite you to cling to the unshakable promises of the Risen Christ.
