  • Stop Idolizing Your Children | A Christian's Guide to Jesus-Centered Parenting
    Sep 3 2025

    The most profound love parents have for their children can lead to unintended consequences. In this special message on Jesus Centered Parenting, we explore the tension between deep parental love and the pitfalls of making children the center of our world.

    Discover how placing your kids on a pedestal can inadvertently lead to entitlement, emotional fragility, and a lack of resilience. Instead of building strength, a child-centered home often creates a fragile identity and prepares kids for failure in a world that won't always cater to them.

    This message challenges us to reorient our family dynamics, contrasting fear-based parenting with a faith-based approach that models trust in God. Learn why the ultimate goal of parenting isn't raising happy children but raising disciples of Christ. By seeking Jesus first, you can create a Christ-centered home that brings true peace, order, and blessing to your entire family.

  • Overcoming Anxiety: A Christian Guide to Finding Peace
    Aug 31 2025

    What If Your Anxiety Is a Hijacked Prayer?


    Anxiety is on the rise, especially among young people. It can feel like an overwhelming force, a constant "what if" that steals our peace. But what if there's a different way to look at it? In this message, we'll explore a powerful insight: anxiety is a "hijacked prayer," a distorted way of worrying about the future instead of trusting it to God.

    Drawing from the wisdom of Proverbs, we'll discover the antidote to anxiety: the "fear of the Lord." This isn't about being scared of God, but about a deep, reverent awe that leads to peace, trust, and contentment. Think of it like taking back the "driver's seat" of your mind from panic and handing it over to God's peace.

    Join us as we learn practical steps to combat anxiety, from identifying your triggers to challenging anxious thoughts with biblical truth. This message will equip you to break free from the grip of fear and live as more than a conqueror, anchored in the love and care of God.

  • Who Are We As The Church? A Christian's Purpose in the World
    Aug 28 2025

    More Than a Sunday Service


    What is the Church's true purpose? Is it just a building we go to on Sundays, or is it something more? In this powerful message, we'll challenge our comfortable ideas about faith and explore the global, underground Church thriving in the most unlikely places.

    Discover what it means to be a "kingdom of priests," called to represent God's love and light in a fragmented world. We'll hear incredible stories of believers in the Arab world who face persecution for their faith but still find joy in Jesus.

    This isn't a call to complacency, but a call to action. We'll dig into what active discipleship looks like, from walking in holiness to loving others and enduring suffering with hope. This episode will remind you that the mission is far from over—with 40% of the world still having no access to the gospel—and you have a vital role to play.

  • Stressed, Triggered, and Tired? (A Christian's Guide to Finding Rest)
    Aug 27 2025

    Tired of feeling stressed, anxious, and overwhelmed? You're not alone. In a world of constant connectivity, economic worries, and endless to-do lists, stress has become a constant companion. But it doesn't have to be that way.

    In our new series, You Asked For It, we tackle one of the most requested topics: stress. We'll explore why we feel so stressed, from the physiological effects of cortisol to the emotional toll it takes on our relationships. More importantly, we'll discover a better way to live.

    Drawing from biblical wisdom and modern science, we'll learn about Jesus' invitation to find true rest and peace. This isn't just about taking a break—it's about learning to partner with him, sharing the burdens that are weighing you down. We'll also dive into the practical tools that can help you find balance, from practicing a Sabbath to intentionally seeking out joy and laughter.

    Join us as we learn to break the cycle of stress and find a life of purpose, peace, and rest.
