Foundational Truths to Deepen Your Faith

March 8, 2026

The book of Hebrews calls us to persevere by looking to Christ as our foundation even when it feels like the world is shaking. This sermon introduces the relevance of Hebrews to our culture and reviews chapter 1, where Jesus is presented as the final, full, and decisive Word of God.

The Justice of God and the Sinfulness of Humanity

March 1, 2026 • Mike Stubbs

Understanding the justice of God is essential for grasping the full story of Scripture and the depth of our need as human beings. God’s justice is not harsh or arbitrary—it flows from His perfect holiness and unwavering righteousness. Yet when His pure standard confronts the reality of human sin, it exposes our universal brokenness and reveals that none of us can stand before Him on our own. Yet, the message of the Bible does not end with judgment; it leads us to hope. In God’s redemptive plan, His justice and mercy meet, offering salvation to all who turn to Him. This study invites us to see God as He truly is, to see ourselves honestly, and to embrace the grace that transforms both our hearts and our lives.

The Abiding Life, Pt. 3

February 22, 2026

The heart of abiding in Christ is far more than a private spiritual moment — it’s a whole way of living that reshapes our relationships and reflects God’s character through our actions. In Colossians 3, Paul highlights the Christ‑like virtues God forms within us as we remain rooted in Him. Abiding, then, is an intentional, daily posture: allowing Christ to be “all in all” in every interaction, every decision, and every shared part of life.

Living for the Last Day: Death, Resurrection, and the Judgment to Come

February 15, 2026 • Hebrews 9:27–28

Every person, no matter their background, eventually wrestles with the same deep questions about death, eternity, and the meaning of their life. Scripture doesn’t leave us to speculate; it speaks plainly about the reality of death, the certainty of resurrection, and the final judgment in which every life is evaluated by God. These truths aren’t meant to frighten believers but to steady us, motivate us, and fill us with hope. It’s like reading a book but skipping the final chapter—you’d never understand how the story ends. Many people live that way, ignoring the final chapter God has already written. Today, we’re opening that final chapter so we can live the earlier ones with purpose.

Called To the Ends of the Earth

February 8, 2026

From the very beginning, God has always been writing a global story. Long before there were borders, flags, or nations as we know them, God’s heart was already reaching for every tribe and every people. The mission we talk about today didn’t start with a church program, a missionary movement, or a modern strategy. It started in the heart of God Himself. And when Jesus stepped onto the scene, He didn’t shrink that story — He expanded it. He didn’t call us to comfort; He called us to movement. He didn’t invite us to watch; He commanded us to go. The Great Commission wasn’t the beginning of a new idea — it was the continuation of God’s ancient promise. But here’s the part we cannot miss: God’s promise and Jesus’ command were never meant to be carried by one person. They were entrusted to a people — a global, Spirit-empowered, unified church. A mission this big requires a team this strong. So as we step into this message, remember this truth that ties it all together: The promise began with God, the command came from Jesus, and the mission continues through us — until every nation stands before His throne.

The Abiding Life, Pt. 2

February 1, 2026 • John 15:5–17

This message builds on the powerful truths we explored in part 1, reminding us that God is still shaping, strengthening, and guiding His people. Whether you’re listening for the first time or revisiting the word, this message invites you to slow down, lean in, and let the Holy Spirit speak directly to your heart. You’ll be encouraged to reflect on where God is leading you, challenged to trust Him more deeply, and reminded that His presence meets you right where you are. If you’re hungry for clarity, renewal, or a fresh sense of direction, this message will speak to you in a meaningful way.

Miracles, Signs, and Wonders

January 18, 2026 • Mike Stubbs

There comes a moment in every believer’s life when the stories of Scripture stop being history and start becoming a mirror. A moment when we can no longer admire the faith of the disciples from a distance, because their obedience demands a response from us. They heard God’s command — and they obeyed. Jesus backed their obedience — and He acted. Their faith met His power — and the results shook cities, healed bodies, and toppled darkness. But the point of their story was never to impress us. It was to invite us. Because the same Jesus who worked through them is working right now. The same authority, the same promise, the same partnership is available today. So the real question isn’t what the disciples did. The real question is this: If the disciples obeyed, Jesus acted, and faith produced results — what will you do with what you hear today?

The Abiding Life

January 11, 2026 • Brandon Little • 1 Corinthians 9:24–27, John 15:1–4

This sermon explores how real spiritual growth doesn’t come from trying harder, but from aiming your life at Jesus, building rhythms to sustain you, and staying connected to the One who actually produces the fruit. If you’ve ever felt busy but not growing, or spiritually active but empty, this will help you reset your aim, train with intention, and stay connected to Christ.

Spiritual Warfare & Evangelism

January 4, 2026 • Mike Stubbs

We live in a world that is not just broken — it is under spiritual siege. Every act of deception, confusion, and darkness points to a battle raging beneath the surface. Evangelism is not a casual conversation; it is a direct confrontation with the forces that blind minds and imprison hearts. When we share the gospel, we step onto enemy‑occupied territory. Scripture shows us that behind the chaos of this world stands a real adversary — but it also shows us a Savior who came to destroy his works. And Jesus has passed that mission on to us. The same Spirit that empowered Him now empowers His church. The same authority He carried is now in our hands. Evangelism is spiritual warfare. It is the rescue mission of heaven. And today, as we look at the spiritual conflict behind evangelism, I want you to see yourself as a warrior — called, equipped, and sent to push back darkness and set captives free.

Wings International Missions Update

December 28, 2025 • Michael and Becky Stevens

This morning we’re blessed to welcome Michael and Becky Stevens as they share a missions update centered on their powerful vision of giving children shoes to run and wings to fly. Through the “shoes” side of their ministry, they help at‑risk and underprivileged children across Asia receive essential needs like food, housing, clothing, and education—giving them a strong foundation for life. And through the “wings,” they offer spiritual support, discipleship, counseling, and the healing love of Jesus, helping each child discover purpose and rise into their God‑given potential. Let’s open our hearts as they share what God is doing through this beautiful work.

Love That Welcomes, Inspires, and Restores

December 21, 2025 • Mike Stubbs • 1 Samuel 14:20–23

Few wounds cut deeper than betrayal—the friend who walked away, the loved one who chose another path. Such breaks leave us cautious, uncertain if reconciliation is even safe. Yet Advent declares that God’s love does not retreat when the lost return; it makes room, even with boundaries. In I Samuel 14, those who once stood with the enemy came back, and Israel received them. This was not blind forgetfulness, but brave love that dared to restore. Advent echoes the Father running to meet the prodigal, and Christ dying for us while we were still sinners. Love does not deny the pain of the past, but it opens the door to redemption. It welcomes, it emboldens, it tears down walls. And so we must ask: will we let God’s love move us beyond resentment, so even those who wounded us might find their way home—through grace that restores?

Advent: Joy

December 14, 2025 • Brandon Little • Luke 1:1–18

Christmas Joy is a deep delight in God that circumstances cannot steal. Our joy comes from the One who came for us and endures beyond fleeting emotions, because the person and work of Jesus Christ gives us a confident hope in the future. Although we live in a world chasing happiness, today we take time to reflect on the One who came to make a way for us, and to reclaim joy as a deep and sustaining source of strength. Because every believer can have joy through the Spirit.

Advent: The Prince of Peace

December 7, 2025 • Mike Stubbs

We live in a world that constantly promises peace but rarely delivers it—whether through politics, possessions, or personal pursuits, the result is often stress, division, and exhaustion. Yet deep down, every heart longs for the kind of peace humanity once knew in Eden: a peace that is whole, lasting, and rooted in God Himself. This Advent message is not just another seasonal reflection; it is a reminder that the Prince of Peace has come, and His gift is the very thing our souls crave. If you’ve ever felt the weight of anxiety, the sting of broken relationships, or the emptiness of striving without rest, then this word is for you. Because in Christ, peace is not only possible—it is promised, and it changes everything.

Advent: A Season of Hope

November 30, 2025

This Sunday marks the beginning of the Advent Season and also marks the beginning of our annual opportunity to renew our faith, reignite our passions, and reinvest our will into the things that matter the most. Our modern culture has taken this season of restoration, contemplation, and hope and turned it into a season of frantic energy, mile-long to-do lists, and depressive memories. Let' take some time this year to revisit what Advent means in order to refocus our perspective towards God!

Holy Spirit Boldness

November 23, 2025 • Mike Stubbs • Daniel 12:3

Daniel 12:3 tells us that those who lead many to righteousness will shine like the stars forever. Imagine that—your life, your witness, your courage echoing into eternity, reflecting the very glory of God. In a world that is fading fast, boldness is not optional; it is the light that pierces the darkness. When we step out in faith to share Christ, we are promised lasting honor in His kingdom, and our testimony becomes a beacon that guides souls to salvation. This is why we must learn to walk in holy boldness—because eternity is at stake, and the stars are waiting to shine.

Everyone Has an Assignment

November 16, 2025 • Mike Stubbs • Matthew 28:18–20

Today, we’re not just gathering to be inspired—we’re gathering to be activated. Because the truth is, every single one of us has been given an assignment by God. Not just pastors, missionaries, or evangelists—but you. Whether you’re in a pulpit or a parking lot, a classroom or a kitchen, you carry a divine purpose that reaches beyond your daily routine. This message isn’t about adding something extra to your life—it’s about uncovering what’s already been placed inside you. It’s about understanding the mission God has entrusted to you, embracing the attitude that fuels it, and grasping the global scope of what He’s doing through His people. You’re not here to merely survive—you’re here to serve, shine, and send. So today, let’s open our hearts to the Word, our minds to the Spirit, and our lives to the call. Because when we understand our assignment, we stop drifting—and we start living with eternal impact.

From Apathy To Action

November 9, 2025 • Revelation 3:14–21

Apathy often creeps in when we’ve been worn down or distracted by comfort and routine—it’s the quiet thief that numbs our hunger for God. Left unchecked, it dulls our discernment, drains our passion, and leaves us spiritually passive, content to coast instead of pursue God. But apathy is not a permanent prison. Jesus stands at the door and knocks. If we honestly repent, intentionally pursue God’s presence, and surround ourselves with Spirit-filled community. When we name apathy for what it is—a spiritual resistance to surrender—we can confront it with truth, rekindle our fire, and boldly step into the life God is still calling us to live.

Sacrifice and Soul: The generous edge of giving

November 2, 2025 • Luke 21:1–4

This morning marks the final message in our Biblical Prosperity & Generosity series—message #4, titled “Sacrifice and Soul—The Generous Edge of Giving.” In a world that often defines generosity by visibility—how much is given, how often, and how publicly—God invites us to see giving through a deeper lens. In His kingdom, the most powerful gifts aren’t the ones that draw attention, but the ones that demand sacrifice. These are the offerings made quietly, seen only by Jesus, and rooted in faith, forged through hardship, and carried out with conviction. This message goes beyond surface-level generosity—it’s about soulful giving. The kind that stretches us, mirrors the heart of Christ, and doesn’t wait for ideal conditions or excess. It’s the kind of giving that shows up when it’s inconvenient, uncomfortable, and even painful. We'll explore stories that show the meaning of living generously, where sacrifice and spirit come together. From a widow who gave all she had, to a church that gave through suffering, to believers urged to finish what they started, we’ll uncover the truth that real prosperity isn’t measured by what we keep—it’s revealed in what we’re willing to release.

Kingdom Stewardship Starts Small

October 26, 2025 • Luke 16:1–13

In Luke 16:1–13, Jesus gives us a powerful reminder: we can’t serve both God and money. Our hearts will follow what we treasure most. But Jesus also teaches something deeply encouraging — when we’re faithful with what seems small, God can trust us with true riches in His Kingdom. This week’s message is all about learning how to handle what God has already placed in our hands — our time, our talents, and our possessions — in a way that honors Him and impacts others. Kingdom stewardship isn’t just about giving or finances; it’s about a lifestyle of faithfulness, gratitude, and generosity that draws people closer t Christ. You'll be challenged to see the “little things” in your life in a new light and inspired to take steps that unlock greater Kingdom impact.

Putting God First

October 19, 2025 • 2 Corinthians 9:6–8

We love to talk about the blessings of God—overflow, favor, open heavens. And we should. But sometimes we forget that the blessing doesn’t just fall—it follows. It follows honor. It follows obedience. It follows putting God first. Today, we’re going to look at the example our spiritual forefathers set—not just in what they received, but in how they responded. Abraham didn’t wait for a sermon on tithing—he gave to Melchizedek because he recognized greatness. Jacob didn’t wait for prosperity—he made a vow to give before the blessing ever showed up. And the people of Israel didn’t just give—they piled up heaps in response to God’s call. But we’ll also see what happened when that honor faded. When the tithe was withheld. When obedience was delayed. And we’ll hear God’s heart—not just His correction, but His invitation: “Return to Me. Test Me. See if I won’t open the windows of heaven.” This isn’t just a message about money—it’s a message about Lordship. About legacy. About reclaiming what was lost by returning to the One who never stopped loving us.

Understanding Biblical Prosperity

October 12, 2025

Today, we gather around a truth that often gets distorted in our world—the idea of prosperity. For many, prosperity is measured by bank accounts, possessions, or status. But God's Word paints a much deeper, richer picture. True prosperity is not just about what we have, but about who we are becoming in Christ, and how we use what we've been given to reflect His heart. Prosperity in the kingdom of God is not about selfish gain, but about faithful stewardship. It's about walking in righteousness, living with humility, working with diligence, and giving with joyful generosity. It’s about becoming a channel of blessing—so that through us, others may see the goodness of God. As we open God's Word today, let’s allow the Spirit to reshape our understanding of what it means to be truly rich—not in temporary things, but in eternal purpose. Let’s ask Him to teach us how to prosper in a way that brings glory to His name, advances His kingdom, and leaves a legacy that honors Him.
