Unworthy

Lost in the Sauce

October 8, 2023 • Kyle Mcholland • Matthew 23:1–12

Sometimes we overcomplicate things and get lost in the sauce. Jesus came to remind us that salvation isn't attained through our efforts or achievements, but solely through our connection to Him.

Criminals and Crosses

October 1, 2023 • Joel Owen • Matthew 27:32–44

On the cross, at the end of His life, Jesus still demonstrated compassion and grace for outsiders and allowed a man making a deathbed confession to enter His Kingdom. God’s Kingdom is about generosity, not fairness!

Haves and Have Nots

September 24, 2023 • Joel Owen • Matthew 19:1–12

We all know the difference between the “Haves” and the “Have Nots.” In this message Jesus has three encounters that end very differently than most people would have imagined. In the upside down kingdom of heaven the “have nots” of this world are the very ones who have special favor in the eyes of Jesus. 

Determination of a Dog

September 17, 2023 • Joel Owen • Matthew 15:1–20

In this message we see Jesus meets a Gentile woman with a great faith that is demonstrated by her persistence. This “outcast” finds help from Jesus because she refuses to give up- even when Jesus pushes back against her!

Riffraff to Righteous

September 10, 2023 • Joel Owen • Matthew 9:9–13

In this message we find Jesus call someone who was considered one of the worst outcasts in all Israel- a tax collector! By calling Matthew, Jesus shows us how to love people and Matthew shows us how to share our faith. 

A Call to Compassion

September 3, 2023 • Joel Owen • Matthew 8:5–13

In Matthew 8 Jesus encounters two people that the Jews would have said had no place in God’s Kingdom, but Jesus shows compassion to the outcasts and changes their lives. 

Ordinary to Extraordinary

August 27, 2023 • Joel Owen • Matthew 4:18–25

Jesus knows how to take ordinary people and accomplish extraordinary things through us as we yield to the power of the Holy Spirit. This message looks at the first disciples Jesus called and the people Jesus ministered to who were considered outcasts, but who Jesus loved and served. 

Messes to Masterpieces

August 20, 2023 • Joel Owen • Matthew 1:1–17

The gospel of Matthew shows us picture after picture of the people that the religious elite considered outcasts, but who Jesus welcomed into his kingdom. We need to call the outcasts into the kingdom just like Jesus did.
