|| ABOUT THIS MESSAGE || Yesterday, Pastor David shared a powerful message about what it really means to make Jesus the focal point of our homes. As we celebrated families dedicating their children to the Lord, he walked us through Ephesians 5 and 6, showing how Paul gives us practical ways to live out our faith within our families. When we walk in the way of love like Jesus, we walk in the Spirit, and that’s where true transformation happens in our homes and lives.

|| ABOUT THIS MESSAGE || Pastor Jerry brought an incredible message this weekend from Ephesians 4, reminding us that our calling in Christ changes everything. He walked us through what it really means to live a life worthy of that calling, marked by humility, gentleness, patience, and unity. We were challenged to use the gifts God has given us to build up the body of Christ and serve others with love. He also unpacked how putting off our old selves and putting on the new leads to maturity and real transformation. If you missed it or just want to dive deeper, this is a message listening to again.

She reminded us that the gospel is for everyone and gives us purpose as part of something bigger than ourselves. Rachel encouraged us to be rooted in God’s love and confident in His power working through us. It was a powerful reminder that God can do immeasurably more than we could ever ask or imagine.

|| ABOUT THIS MESSAGE || In yesterday’s message from our Ephesians series, Pastor Emmanuel talked about how God’s grace doesn’t just bring us close to Him but also connects us to each other. In a world that feels divided and suspicious, we were reminded that we’re meant to belong together for a purpose, to be God’s new temple where heaven and earth meet. He shared how God wants to redeem the world by grace, help us reconcile with “the other,” and reconnect the world to Himself through His Church. It wasn’t just about unity, it was about stepping into our calling to be living bridges between the holy and the everyday.

|| ABOUT THIS MESSAGE || Yesterday Pastor Jerry kicked off our new series in Ephesians and talked about how God wants to wake us up from just watching and get us living out our faith. He showed how Paul’s words remind us that we’ve been chosen, adopted, redeemed, and filled with the Holy Spirit. Pastor Jerry shared that these aren’t just church words but real truths that can change how we live every day. He reminded us that God’s grace is overflowing and His plan for us is good. If you’ve been feeling tired or stuck in your faith, this message is a great reminder of who you are in Jesus.|| ABOUT BEACH CHURCH || We exist to reach, raise up, and release followers of Jesus who change the world.

|| ABOUT THIS MESSAGE || This week, Pastor Jerry took us to Luke 9 as we wrestled with a simple but challenging question: are you a fan or a follower of Jesus? It’s easy to cheer from the stands, but Jesus calls us to get in the game and live on mission. Through real stories and honest reflection, we were reminded that following Jesus isn’t about comfort or convenience, it’s about full devotion. No more waiting for tomorrow or living in the land of “someday.” Today’s the day to follow Him wherever, whenever, and whatever it takes.

|| ABOUT THIS MESSAGE || Yesterday Pastor Jerry brought an awesome message in our Made for More series all about Release. He reminded us that God didn’t make us to just settle or sit on the sidelines. Every one of us has a purpose that He set in place long before we even knew it. Pastor Jerry shared the story of Elisha in 1 Kings 19 and how he burned his plow to step into God’s bigger plan. We were encouraged to think about the plows we might need to leave behind so we can fully live on mission.

|| ABOUT THIS MESSAGE || Yesterday, we got to hear from Pastor David as he reminded us that raising people up in faith is more than helping them stay afloat at the surface. Using the story of the Samaritan woman in John 4, he showed how raising others up today means doing it with intentionality, accountability, patience, humility, and a willingness to go deeper ourselves. That’s where the snorkel vs scuba picture comes in. Snorkeling gives you a glimpse, but scuba takes you down into the depths, and you can’t do it alone. Just like scuba divers rely on a shared source of breath, we’re meant to rely on God’s Spirit and bring others alongside us as we go deeper with Him. Take some time this week to pray and ask God who He’s calling you to raise up and walk deeper with in faith.

|| ABOUT THIS MESSAGE || This Sunday we continued in Week 2 of our Made For More series, with Pastor Emmanuel sharing about what it means to Reach. God calls us to make disciples, but sometimes that feels overwhelming. He reminded us that it is not about tactics or strategies first, but about understanding why reaching matters. At the center of it all is God’s immense love for us, and for the world. When we get His heart, we naturally begin to use the influence and tools He has already given us to share Jesus. This message will encourage you to see the value God places on every person, and to love people in a way that leads them closer to Him.

|| SCRIPTURE REFERENCES || John 3:1-8, 10-17
|| ABOUT THIS MESSAGE || Yesterday Pastor Jerry kicked off a brand new series called Made For More, a five week journey about why we exist and how we’re called to live on mission for Jesus. It’s not just about knowing the mission, it’s about actually living it out. He talked about three different ways people approach the mission: some believe in it enough to benefit from it, some believe in it enough to follow it comfortably, but the real life change comes when you believe in it enough to give your life for it. That’s the kind of mission we’re called to. At Beach, that means reaching people with the love of Jesus, raising up followers who become more like Him, and releasing world changers into their God given purpose. Mission isn’t something we do once in a while, it’s a way of life, and Jesus invites us to live it every day as we go.

|| ABOUT THIS MESSAGE || This Sunday, Pastor Jerry walked us through a powerful reminder from the book of Judges: one day our lives will be summed up in just a few words. For Jair, who led Israel for 22 years, the record simply says his 30 sons each had a donkey and a town. Nothing about faith. Nothing about impact. It’s a sobering reminder that what matters most isn’t the stuff we accumulate but the faith we pass on. God’s call for us is clear — to live in such a way that our legacy points the next generation to Him. Let’s be intentional today to invest in others and hand off a faith that lasts.|| ABOUT BEACH CHURCH || We exist to reach, raise up, and release followers of Jesus who change the world.

|| ABOUT THIS MESSAGE || Yesterday, Pastor Jerry wrapped up our journey through the book of Acts with an incredible message from Acts 28. Even though we’ve come to the end of this series, the story of what God is doing isn’t over—it’s still happening through us. We looked at Paul’s final stretch to Rome, his boldness in sharing Jesus no matter the circumstances, and the reminder that God’s invitation is for everyone. Acts doesn’t end with a conclusion—it ends with an open invitation for you and me to live boldly for Jesus and share His love with the world.
Let’s not just close the book on Acts—let’s live it out.

|| ABOUT THIS MESSAGE || Yesterday, Pastor David continued our Acts Unchained series in Acts 28. After the storm, Paul and his crew found themselves on the island of Malta, where what they expected was very different from the reality God had in store. Through kindness from strangers, an unexpected snake bite, and moments of healing, God revealed that His plans are always greater than ours. Pastor David reminded us that when life doesn’t meet our expectations, we can trust that God’s reality is far better than we could imagine. Don’t miss this powerful reminder to lean into God’s bigger story.

|| ABOUT THIS MESSAGE || Yesterday, Pastor Emmanuel kept our year-long journey through Acts going with the wild ending of Paul’s shipwreck in Acts 27–28. He took on the big question, “If God’s good, why do bad things happen?”—and showed us that sometimes life’s storms come from our own choices, and other times it’s just the reality of living in a broken world. Through Paul’s story, we were reminded that God’s goodness doesn’t disappear in hard times and that He actually invites us to help bring healing to the world. Emmanuel shared a personal story that made this question hit close to home and encouraged us to hold tight to God’s character no matter what. We were challenged to see ourselves as part of His plan to bring hope and restoration. Now it’s our turn to live it out and bring God’s goodness to the people around us.|| ABOUT BEACH CHURCH || We exist to reach, raise up, and release followers of Jesus who change the world.

|| ABOUT THIS MESSAGE || Yesterday, Pastor Jerry walked us through Paul’s storm-filled journey in Acts 27—a story of danger, discouragement, and surprising hope. Even though Paul wasn’t the one who made the bad decision to set sail, he became a steady voice when everything fell apart. He encouraged others, trusted God’s promises, and reminded everyone that they weren’t alone. We were challenged to think about how we respond when life gets chaotic—how storms often reveal who we really are. In the middle of the storm, Paul stayed grounded, cared for himself, and looked out for those around him. This week, let’s do the same—stay healthy, trust God, and be a source of encouragement to someone who might be going through a storm of their own.

|| ABOUT THIS MESSAGE || Yesterday, Pastor Emmanuel challenged us with a message about staying faithful to God’s calling — even when things get hard. Picking up where Pastor Jerry left off, we followed Paul’s journey toward Rome and saw how obedience to God doesn’t always mean smooth sailing. In fact, it often means strong headwinds, uncomfortable circumstances, and rowing through storms. Emmanuel reminded us that God’s calling isn’t just for when life feels convenient — it’s for every season, and it’s worth pressing into. Faithfulness, not feelings, is the fuel that will carry us to the finish. We also celebrated the commissioning of three faithful interns, reminding us that obedience is always worth it.

|| ABOUT THIS MESSAGE || Pastor Jerry continued our journey through Paul’s story by unpacking what life really looks like after meeting Jesus. We’ve heard about Paul’s past and his powerful encounter on the road to Damascus—but this week zoomed in on the honest, everyday reality of following Christ. Pastor Jerry reminded us that faith isn’t about perfection, but about daily decisions to say yes to Jesus. Over time, those choices start to shape us to look more like Him. Real faith shows up in how we live, love, and serve—even if the world thinks we’re a little crazy for it. Your testimony's not just important—it might be exactly what someone else needs to hear to help them see Jesus.

|| ABOUT THIS MESSAGE || Pastor Jerry kicks off the final refresh in our ACTS message series by diving into Paul’s powerful encounter with Jesus on the road to Damascus. Paul was obsessed with hunting down Christians - but right in the middle of that mission, Jesus showed up and changed everything. Instead of judgment, Paul received grace, and that moment became the start of a brand new life. Pastor Jerry reminded us that Jesus doesn’t wait for us to clean up our act - He meets us right where we are, even at our worst. If He could rescue Paul, He can absolutely rescue you too.

Pastor Emmanuel reminds us that our true success isn't measured by wealth or comfort but by our willingness to love and serve others, as Paul did.
