In this message, we look closely at the early church in Acts 2 to discover the evidence of the Holy Spirit at work in the lives of God’s people. Following Pentecost, the outpouring of the Holy Spirit didn’t just result in powerful preaching—it produced a transformed community marked by devotion, unity, generosity, gratitude, grace, and growth.This sermon explores how the believers responded to God’s gift of the Holy Spirit by continually devoting themselves to the apostles’ teaching, fellowship, the breaking of bread, and prayer. We also reflect on what this Christ-centered, Spirit-empowered community looked like—and how these same evidences of the Holy Spirit should shape our lives and our church today. As God builds His Kingdom community, we are invited to respond with devotion and openness to the ongoing work of the Holy Spirit among us.* God’s promise fulfilled through the outpouring of the Holy Spirit* A Spirit-filled response: repentance, baptism, and devotion* The marks of a healthy, Holy Spirit–led church* Living as a Christ-centered Kingdom community today🙏 Join Us for Worship✨ You are invited to join us Sundays at 10 AM for live stream and in-person services.

In this message from Luke 9, we are invited to rethink what it truly means to be great in the Kingdom of God. As the disciples argue about status and importance, Jesus gently but firmly turns their perspective upside down. By placing a child among them, He reveals that greatness is not found in power, position, or comparison—but in humility, receiving others, and reflecting God’s heart to save rather than destroy.This sermon challenges us to examine our own assumptions about greatness. Where might we be elevating ourselves, our preferences, or our ways above others? Jesus calls His followers to a radically different way of living—one marked by grace, mercy, humility, and a willingness to receive those who seem lesser, different, or overlooked. In doing so, we receive Christ Himself and participate in building His Kingdom community.🙏 Join Us for Worship✨ You are invited to join us Sundays at 10 AM for live stream and in-person services.

In this message from 2 Thessalonians, we are reminded of the incredible hope we have in Christ—even in times of testing, uncertainty, and perseverance. Paul calls believers to give thanks for God’s choosing grace, to recognize that salvation is God’s work from beginning to end, and to stand firm in the truth that has been handed down to us through the gospel.This sermon explores what it means to be chosen for salvation through sanctification by the Spirit and faith in the truth, and the astounding calling God has placed on His people: that we may share in the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ. We are encouraged to hold fast to Christ-centered teaching, live lives of obedience and gratitude, and walk faithfully as we prepare for Christ’s return—both reflecting His glory now and anticipating its fullness in eternity.* God has chosen His people from the beginning for salvation* We are being sanctified by the Spirit as we follow Christ day by day* Believers are called to stand firm and hold fast to the truth* Our ultimate hope is to share in the glory of Jesus Christ🙏 Join Us for Worship✨ You are invited to join us Sundays at 10 AM for live stream and in-person services.

As we conclude our months-long walk through Paul’s letters to the Corinthians, Pastor Joel brings us to Paul’s final admonition: “Finally, brethren… rejoice.” In this closing passage, Paul offers a five-fold call to both do and be—a reminder that the Christian life is active, intentional, and shaped by the grace of God.This sermon explores:* The paradox of the cross—God’s power made perfect in our weakness* The difference between temporary happiness and eternal, Spirit-filled joy* How rejoicing enables us to be made complete, comforted, like-minded, and at peace with one another* Why biblical joy flows not from circumstances but from fixing our eyes on Christ* How the God of love and peace remains with us—even in our weaknessAs we remember Advent and the God who is with us, we’re invited to walk in a rejoicing that transforms our hearts, shapes our community, and builds up the body of Christ. May this word strengthen you as you follow Jesus in the power of His Holy Spirit, becoming and building the Christ-centered Kingdom Community God desires.🙏 Join Us for Worship✨ You are invited to join us Sundays at 10 AM for live stream and in-person services.

In this message, Pastor Joel brings us to the final chapters of 2 Corinthians, where Paul reveals one of the central purposes behind his endurance, sacrifice, and perseverance: the upbuilding of the church. Drawing from themes of weakness, grace, and the call to edify others, this sermon explores how God meets us in our struggles—not always by removing our thorns, but by empowering us through them.As we look at Paul’s example, we are challenged to consider how we can build up the people around us. What burdens can we help carry? How can we rejoice in the successes of others? Where might God be calling us to spend and be expended for someone’s soul? This message invites us into the heart of Christ-centered community—one that reflects the love, strength, and grace of Jesus at work in us.In this sermon, we reflect on themes such as:* Paul’s purpose in enduring weakness—for the church’s upbuilding* God’s grace meeting us in our weakness* The call to build up rather than tear down* Rejoicing in the strengths of others* Praying for and supporting one another toward spiritual maturity* Using our God-given influence, gifts, and authority for the good of others* Living out the mission of a Christ-centered Kingdom Community🙏 Join Us for Worship✨ You are invited to join us Sundays at 10 AM for live stream and in-person services.

In this week’s message, Pastor Joel explores one of the most paradoxical and life-giving truths of the Christian walk: God’s power is most fully revealed in our weakness. Drawing from Paul’s teaching in 2 Corinthians 12, we look honestly at the thorns, distresses, and challenges we face—those places where our strength fails but Christ’s strength is made perfect.Together, we consider:* What Scripture means by “a thorn in the flesh”* Why God allows weakness, distress, and difficulty in the believer’s life* How His grace meets us when we come to the end of ourselves* What it looks like to embrace weakness so that the power of Christ may dwell in usThis message invites us into deeper humility, greater dependence, and a richer experience of God’s grace as we pursue becoming and building the Christ-centered Kingdom Community God desires us to be.🙏 Join Us for Worship✨ You are invited to join us Sundays at 10 AM for live stream and in-person services.

In this week’s message, Pastor Joel leads us through Paul’s powerful reminder that the Kingdom of God turns our values upside down. While our culture prizes strength, success, and credentials, Paul teaches that God displays His strength most clearly through our weakness.Drawing from 2 Corinthians 11–12, we explore:* Paul’s willingness to be misunderstood for the sake of the Gospel* The contrast between worldly boasting and boasting in the Lord* How suffering, humility, and weakness become the very places God reveals His power* What it means to lay down self-confidence and embrace Christ-centered dependence* How our affluence and comfort can become spiritual barriers unless surrendered to ChristThis sermon challenges us to rethink what we count as “strength.” As Paul shows through his hardships, imprisonments, and even supernatural experiences, everything finds its true value only when it points to the greatness of God—not ourselves. In weakness, God is glorified. In weakness, we truly come to know Him.🙏 Join Us for Worship✨ You are invited to join us Sundays at 10 AM for live stream and in-person services.

In this week’s message, Pastor Joel leads us through Paul’s powerful reminder that the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh but are mighty through God. We’re called to face life’s challenges—conflict, criticism, and hardship—not with anger, reason, or control, but with spiritual weapons like love, prayer, generosity, and the Holy Spirit’s power.Paul also teaches that each of us has a God-given sphere of influence—a unique place of calling and purpose that the Lord has appointed for us. When we live within that calling and engage spiritual battles in the Spirit, God’s light and love reach far beyond what we could ever imagine.* Let us be reminded to boast not in ourselves, but in the Lord who gives grace, power, and purpose.* Let us walk in the Spirit, bringing His weapons of peace and faith into every area of conflict.* Let us awaken each morning with the conviction that God has placed us in this moment, for such a time as this.🙏 Join Us for Worship✨ You are invited to join us Sundays at 10 AM for live stream and in-person services.
