Love God, love people, and change the world. We believe the life and lessons of Jesus aren’t just good advice, but are Good News for us here and now. As a church, we are all about following Jesus and know there’s no end to that journey—we’re more about becoming than arriving. We are committed to becoming a multi-generational, multi-ethnic, multiplying movement of Christ followers, equipping and empowering our kids and students to not only be the church of tomorrow, but the church of today.

Let there be Light!

This message explores the powerful connection between Genesis 1 and John 1, showing how the story of creation and the story of Christ reveal the same truth: God brings light into darkness—on purpose, with purpose, and through Jesus Christ.
From the very beginning, God’s first act was to speak: “Let there be light.” Light wasn’t an accident; it was intentional, good, and foundational. John picks up this theme to show that Jesus is that Light—the divine Word present at creation, the One through whom life and light came into being.
The sermon walks through Scripture, childhood memories of fearing the dark, and even the dramatic testimony of rock star Alice Cooper, illustrating that no matter how thick the darkness seems—fear, anxiety, exhaustion, grief, addiction—light is stronger. One small light changes a room more than one small area of darkness ever could. fmhouston.com
