Have you ever found yourself, if you’re truly honest, dismissing someone? Maybe because of their reputation, what they’ve done, or the label the world has given them. It’s easy to categorize people as “outsiders” or “misfits.” We see in the gospels that the Pharisees did this all the time, but Jesus… he sat and ate with them, “treating them as old friends.”
In this talk, we are diving into the parable of the lost coin from Luke 15. It’s about a woman searching for a coin of “almost insignificant value.” And yet, to her, it was worth lighting a lamp, sweeping the whole house, and searching every dark corner to find. This isn’t just a story about being lost and found. It’s a powerful challenge for us. Who have we stopped searching for? Who have we allowed to “remain in darkness” because we’ve decided they aren’t worth the effort? This is a beautiful and simple reminder that everyone, no matter their story, is of supreme importance to God — and they are valued, simply because they are valuable.

Have you been praying for a breakthrough? That feeling like you’re in a situation — addiction, depression, finances, just stuck—and you need God to move? We kick things off with a powerful, passionate call for a breakthrough in every area of our lives, drawing from the incredible promise in Isaiah 61 that the Spirit anoints us to proclaim freedom.
But how do we get that breakthrough? It often comes down to one thing: hearing the right voice. We dive deep into John 10 to explore the Good Shepherd, the one who calls you by name. What if God is speaking to you through your own imagination, but you’ve been conditioned to distrust it? We’ll give you a simple, powerful question to ask (“What would perfect love say?”) to know if it’s His voice. This is a message about recognizing the Shepherd, finding safety in the “Gate,” and finally stepping into the abundant life He promises.
