In one of the most dramatic turns in Matthew’s Gospel, Peter confesses Jesus as the Christ at the very gates of hell. Pastor Don Weiss unpacks how Jesus builds his Church not on perfection but on revelation—and how he calls every disciple to deny themselves, take up their cross, and follow him.
In Matthew 11–13, Jesus invites us to trust him by coming to him for rest, learning from him in humility, and treasuring him above everything else. The Kingdom of God isn’t a concept to admire but a reality to enter. In this message, we’re challenged to stop striving, surrender control, and choose the King himself. Because to choose the Kingdom is to trust the One who rules it.
In Matthew 8–10, Jesus doesn’t just proclaim the kingdom, he demonstrates it. Through healing, deliverance, and mission, the power and authority of the king become unmistakable. In this sermon, we unpack what Jesus’ authority means for modern disciples: trust his power and sovereignty, submit to his reign, and bring the news of his kingdom to the world.
The Sermon on the Mount changes everything — not just what we believe, but how we relate to God. In this message, guest preacher Pastor Dihan Lee reminds us that Jesus didn’t just give us new rules, he gave us a new reality. God is no longer distant and quarantined in holiness; He’s come near, even to dwell within us.
Jesus opens the sermon on the mount by flipping our expectation of "the good life" upside down. In his kingdom, the poor in spirit inherit the kingdom, the mourners are comforted, and the persecuted are blessed. In this sermon, Pastor Adam walks through Matthew 5, showing how the promise of Christ's kingdom subverts our expectations of what blessing is, and transforms our motivation from one of anxiety and fear to one of love and faith.
In Matthew 3–4, we see Jesus baptized in the Jordan, affirmed by the Father, tested in the wilderness, and calling disciples into mission. Where Adam failed, where Israel failed, where we fail—Jesus succeeded. In this sermon, Pastor Adam shows us how our perfect Christ pioneers the way for imperfect people like us to know God’s acceptance, fight temptation, and follow him in his mission.
The Gospel of Matthew opens not with a miracle or a parable, but with a genealogy. Why? Because Matthew wants us to see who Jesus truly is. In a world full of opinions about Jesus, the most important decision you’ll ever make is not your career, your relationships, or your future plans—it’s who you say Jesus is.
When the world feels fractured by violence, division, and fear, where can we place our hope? In Revelation 7:9–17, we’re given a heavenly vision: a countless, multi-ethnic multitude gathered before the throne of Jesus, unified in worship. This is not just a future reality—it shapes our calling now: to resist fear, love our neighbor, and live as a diverse, unified family of faith.
What shapes the values of the church? Not preference, not culture, but the gospel story. In this sermon from Ephesians 2:1–10, we continue our House Rules series and explore our church values: Truth, Grace, and Change. Discover how the gospel rewrites our story and calls us into a life marked by humility, freedom, and transformation.
What does it mean to be a disciple of Jesus? In this sermon on Matthew 28:18–20, Pastor Adam reminds us that in this house, we are disciples of Jesus who make disciples of Jesus. Every believer has a next step—whether it’s exploring faith, deepening foundations, leading others, or even stepping into ministry. Discover what it means to obey Jesus’ final command and how God’s promise of his presence empowers us to go.
What does it mean to live ready? And why is it worth it? In Luke 12:35–40, Jesus calls his disciples to be dressed for action, keep their lamps burning, and their hearts awake. In this sermon, we learn to identify and fight the enemies of readiness, and to lean into the Spirit’s power as we prepare for Christ’s return and for the revivals he brings along the way.
In Isaiah 6, we see the prophet undone by God’s holiness, cleansed by God’s grace, and compelled to respond to God’s mission. Christians are not just saved—we are sent. In this sermon, discover how encountering God’s presence moves us from hesitation and fear to boldness and obedience.
Saul had everything—status, reputation, religious zeal. But on the road to Damascus, everything changed. Jesus interrupts Saul’s mission and flips his world upside down, turning him from persecutor to preacher. In this message, we see how Jesus still meets people where they are, strips away false identities, and replaces them with the surpassing worth of knowing him. The question isn’t whether Jesus will lead—it’s whether we’ll follow when he does.
In Matthew 6, Jesus teaches his disciples to pray: Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name. Your kingdom come, your will be done. In this sermon, we explore the dangerous but transformative prayer: Lead me. We unpack what it means to truly let go of control and allow God to shape our lives around his holiness, his kingdom, and his will.
What does it mean to pray, “Break me”? When we pray “Break me,” we’re not asking to be destroyed—we’re asking to be released. Released from our past, from false identities, from misplaced security. Because the truth is: your most meaningful ministry will often rise from your deepest breaking. And in the hands of Jesus, nothing surrendered is wasted.
Has guilt, shame, or fear ever caused you to hide? But Psalm 139 ends with a bold and vulnerable prayer: “Search me, O God.” Pastor Adam unpacks how that prayer leads us out of hiding and into deeper freedom.
In Acts 8, we see a powerful moment where God weaves two stories together—Philip’s obedience and the Ethiopian official’s search for truth. In this sermon, we’re reminded to love people and trust God with the story he’s writing. Even when things are hard or unclear, we can obey with confidence, knowing that the author of the big story is the same one guiding our little ones, and his ending is always redemption.
Before Isaiah could be sent, he had to be undone. Isaiah’s story shows us that we’re not ready for the mission of God until we’ve come face-to-face with the holiness of God and surrendered everything. We see how encountering God’s holiness leads to confession, healing, and ultimately, calling. It’s grace that sends us. And it’s grace that sustains us.
In 1 Kings 19, Elijah hits rock bottom. But even there, God meets him with healing, community, and a renewed calling. In this sermon, we explore how Elijah’s story reminds us that we were made for more than just survival—we were made for God’s mission. Through suffering, healing, relationships, and renewed calling, God draws us back to his purpose. Just like Elijah, we’re reminded that our lives matter, not just for today, but for the next generation.
What do we do when we’ve fallen into sin? In Micah 7, the prophet shows us a path that’s honest, hopeful, and anchored in grace. Instead of denying or drowning in guilt, we’re invited to respond with a heart that mourns sin, rebukes the enemy, acknowledges God’s justice, and waits on His mercy. God meets us in our lowest moments not to shame us, but to convict, comfort, and restore.
