In John 11, Jesus turned Lazarus’ death into a moment that revealed God’s glory. Crowds were divided—some grieving, some doubting, some criticizing—but Jesus declared, “Did I not tell you that if you believe, you will see the glory of God?” Cultural moments, like the public assassination of Charlie Kirk, also draw crowds and divide opinions. But th…

This message explores Paul’s words in Galatians 6, where serving others is shown as the pathway from fragile faith to lasting maturity.

In Acts 2 and Acts 5, the early church met both in large public gatherings and in small personal spaces—worshipping boldly, growing deeply, and proclaiming Jesus everywhere.

This message reminds us tha…

What does it really mean to live a holy life? Is it more about avoiding sin—or about actively doing good? In this message from Titus 2 and 3, we explore how grace doesn’t just save us from something, but calls us toward something greater.

What if the biggest threat to holiness isn’t choosing the wrong path—but choosing the easy one?

In a world obsessed with proving worth and chasing success, what if the reason we're exhausted isn’t just because life is hard—but because we’re trying to be someone God never asked us to be?

What does it really mean to be holy? In this message from Galatians 5, we explore how the Christian life is not about rule-keeping or rule-breaking—but about walking in step with the Spirit. Paul warns against two distortions of holiness: legalism (trying to earn God’s favor) and license (abusing grace to justify sin). Both miss the point. True hol…

Join Pastor Jon as he breaks down the American Church's mi…
