In this message from Acts 4, Pastor Jordan Martinounpacks how God uses pressure, trials, and opposition—like Peter and John facing the religious leaders—to reveal what’s really in us and to produce the “oil” of a bold, authentic witness. He calls the church to move from casual interest to full devotion, resting in God’s sovereignty, praying for boldness, and living as a unified, Spirit-filled Ekklesia that cannot be silenced.
A Devotional Life
May 17, 2026 • Pastor Gabriel Platero • Acts 2:42
This message unpacks the word “devoted” in Acts 2:42 as a steadfast, everyday commitment to God’s Word, fellowship, and prayer.

Listeners are challenged to live as a true family in Christ, embodying the unity Jesus prayed for in John 17.
Rediscover the Church

He addresses how the enemy distorts identity, desire, and language to keep believers stuck, and emphasizes unity, spiritual formation, and boldness as marks of the true ecclesia. The message culminates in a call to reclaim our God-given authorityand for those far from God to be reconciled to Christ.
How The Church Displays
May 3, 2026 • Pastor Gabriel Platero • Ephesians 3:10

The Model of the Future
April 19, 2026 • Pastor William McDowell • John 13:34–35
Pastor William McDowell continues the “Holy Year” journey by reframing what the Church truly is and why it exists. He teaches that the Church is not a spiritual gas station for individual growth, but a Spirit-formed family that embodies and displays the future Kingdom of God in the present. Pastor William unpacks spiritual formation as becoming fluent in the “language of the future” and challenges Western individualism by calling believers into a shared life that proves to the world that Jesus is Lord.
Formed In Christ
April 12, 2026 • Pastor William McDowell • Philippians 2:1–4
In this message, Pastor William teaches on spiritual formation as a deeply communal journey, not an individual self‑improvement project. This sermon is a call to lay down individualism, embrace our identity as God’s people, and live out Christlike love, humility, and vulnerability in community.
What Must I Do?
April 5, 2026 • Pastor William McDowell • Matthew 19:16–26
On this Easter Sunday message, Pastor William McDowell unpacks our deepest human fears—death and judgment—and shows how Scripture reveals both their cause and their cure. Through the story of the rich young ruler and the call to recognize our need for God, repent, believe in Jesus, and receive His finished work, Pastor William invites listeners to move from self‑reliance to surrender—and to live free from the fear of death and judgment by trusting in Christ alone.
For The Sake of Others
March 29, 2026 • Pastor William McDowell
In this message, Pastor William McDowell teaches on spiritual formation, the fruit of salvation, and the absolute centrality of Christ as the cornerstone. Christianity is not mere labels, morals, or religious décor—but a visible, Spirit-produced life that reflects Jesus in character, authority, and community.
It explains how God plants believers in local community for the sake of maturity, so that the work He does in us becomes a gift for the sake of others. This message calls listeners to submit to Christ as Lord, stay rooted, and allow the Holy Spirit to produce lasting fruit that glorifies God and blesses His family.
Authority, the Overflow of Proximity
March 22, 2026 • Pastor William McDowell • Luke 2:41–52, Luke 3:21–22, Luke 4:31–37
In this powerful message, Pastor William McDowell teaches on the eight “patterns of proximity”. This sermon calls believers to embrace God’s process, trust His timing, and pursue deeper communion with Him so that His authority can be revealed through their lives.
The Theology of Authority
March 15, 2026 • Pastor William McDowell • Mark 3:13–15, Galatians 6:7–9, Matthew 28:18–20
In this message, Pastor William McDowell ministers on the theology of authority and the visible fruit of true spiritual formation. What is cultivated in secret with God cannot remain hidden—it must show up in character, authority, and community. He challenges the Western tendency to reduce spiritual growth to emotional self‑regulation and reminds believers that all authority comes from Christ. This message will stir you to pursue God Himself, not just His blessings, and to expect authentic spiritual fruit that impacts your life and the world around you.
Let It Show
March 8, 2026 • Pastor William McDowell • Galatians 6:7–9, 2 Thessalonians 3:6–13, Galatians 5:22–23, Colossians 1:26–27, Philippians 2:13
In this message, Pastor William McDowell teaches on spiritual formation, hidden works, and the visible fruit God intends to produce in our lives. He contrasts formation by the Spirit with deformation by the world, exposing how Western culture and comfort often dull our expectation for the supernatural and our commitment to prayer and fasting. This word calls believers to resist spiritual idleness, re-center on Jesus in an unstable world, and pray, “Lord, what You’re doing in me, let it show.”
Formation In Fragile Times
March 1, 2026 • Pastor Jason McMullen • 1 Peter 1:6–7, 1 Peter 3:13–17
In this message, Pastor Jason McMullen calls the Church to be formed, not frantic in an age of global instability, war, and cultural upheaval. This timely word encourages believers to be response-driven, not reactionary—running toward God’s purposes rather than merely away from trouble.
Hidden Works
February 22, 2026 • Pastor William McDowell • Galatians 6:7–8, Matthew 6:1–8
In this message, Pastor William shows that Jesus assumes a lifestyle of giving, praying, and fasting in secret, and teaches that what is cultivated in hidden communion with God will always bear visible fruit in character, authority, and community. This message is an invitation to commit this entire Holy Year to the secret place, sowing to the Spirit with the expectation that nothing done in the Spirit is wasted.
At The Center
February 15, 2026 • Pastor Jordan Martino • Colossians 1:9–17, Romans 8:2
In this message, Pastor Jordan Martino calls us to re-center our lives around Christ as the true source, sustainer, and purpose of our existence — by Him, through Him, and for Him. This message is a clear, urgent call to examine what truly sits at the center of our lives—and to realign everything (our identity, ambitions, relationships, and decisions) in Him, the only center that can hold all things together.
A Better King
February 8, 2026 • Pastor William McDowell • 1 Samuel 8:1
Pastor William McDowell explains that we are always being formed—either by the Spirit into Christlikeness or by the world into its image—and that true spiritual formation is driven by allegiance, not just information. Using Israel’s demand for a king “like the other nations,” Pastor William shows how believers today can still claim God while quietly trusting money, relationships, politics, or visible leaders to do what only God can.
