We all forget — but God calls His people to remember. Just as Israel set up twelve stones from the Jordan to remind future generations of God’s faithfulness and power, we too need memorials that point us back to what God has done. Remembering shapes who we are, strengthens our faith, and fuels our obedience when new obstacles arise. Today, the church itself serves as God’s living memorial — a people rescued from impossible situations, set together to declare His strength and faithfulness to the world. When we remember what God has done, we trust Him more deeply, fear Him rightly, and live as a testimony that the Lord’s hand is strong.

This message examines Israel’s crossing of the Jordan River as a powerful moment of transition from wilderness wandering to entering God’s promises. It explains the historical and spiritual significance of the Jordan River and the Ark of the Covenant, showing how God miraculously stopped the river’s flow to lead His people forward. The sermon draws five parallels for the church today: we are always in transition, everyone must move forward together, we follow God’s Word, all believers share in ministry, and consecration prepares us for God’s wonders. Ultimately, it calls believers to be spiritually ready, united, and obedient as God leads them into greater promises.

In Joshua 2, we meet Rahab—a surprising hero who risked everything to align with the God of Israel. As judgment loomed over Jericho, Rahab’s faith and quick action became her family’s path to salvation. This message draws powerful parallels between her story and our own need to be saved from coming judgment. God's mercy is still available today for those who want it.

God promised His people the land—but they still had to go in and fight for it. Why? Because faith takes action, and unbelief is the real enemy. This message explores how the spies in Joshua’s day reveal a deeper truth for us today: it’s not your circumstances holding you back—it’s what you’re believing. Want to experience the life Jesus promised? Start by asking: What’s standing in your way… and are you believing God enough to overcome it?

In this message a striking parallel is drawn between Joshua addressing Israel and Jesus speaking to His church today. It reminds us that when someone speaks to us—especially Christ—our response reveals our heart and shapes the whole community of believers. We are called to hear His clear commands and rely on His strength to obey. In doing so, we discover the life and blessing that come from following Him together.

This message explores the powerful example of the 2½ tribes in Joshua 1 who, though they had already secured their land and rest, were called to cross the Jordan and fight for their brothers until everyone received their promise. In the same way, God calls spiritually mature believers today to use their strength, peace, and victories—not for isolation, but for intercession. Drawing parallels to Jesus’ own self-giving love, this sermon challenges us to give our best, take the lead, and stay in the fight until others are doing okay in Christ too. Because in God’s family, personal peace isn’t enough—we’re called to pursue collective wholeness.

This message unpacks how God moves His people as one through a clear chain of communication—seen in Joshua’s leadership and fulfilled through Jesus and His church. Just like Israel followed Joshua into the Promised Land, the church today follows Jesus through the leadership He’s established. God’s design for unity through His Word and His leaders isn’t just practical—it reflects His very nature. When we move together under His direction, we show the world what He’s like.

God's command to "be strong and courageous" isn’t about self-confidence—it’s about trusting His promises, obeying His Word, and knowing He’s with you. Strength is the ability to do the hard thing; courage is the resolve to do it despite fear. Joshua 1:6–9 reminds us that faith closes the gap between our weakness and God's faithfulness. Because Jesus—the true and better Joshua—led the way with perfect strength and courage, we can follow Him boldly today.

Before Israel could step into the Promised Land, they had to prepare. In Joshua 1, God speaks to Joshua with a blunt truth—“Moses is dead”—and a bold command: “Get ready to go.” Grief, fear, and comfort can keep us stuck, but God’s promises are still alive. He gives us everything we need to move forward: a clear calling, the guarantee of His presence, and the assurance of success—if we follow Him. Just like Israel, we’re invited to leave behind the wilderness and walk into the life Jesus promised—together, as His people. The question is: Are you ready to go?

This message is a preview of the book of Joshua, showing how its ancient story of leadership, promise, opposition, and obedience mirrors our spiritual journey today. Just as Joshua led Israel into the Promised Land, Jesus leads us into the abundant life God has promised. But walking in that promise requires faith, obedience, and trust in God’s Word. This series will explore how we, like Israel, are called to step boldly into all that God has for us.

Paul is nearly finished his letter to the Colossians. But before he wraps it up he leaves them with some final instructions. He calls them to love the other local churches in their area, to love the Word of God, and to love those in the congregation who need some encouragement - instructions that should still be observed by every local church today.

Paul ends his letter to the Colossians the same way he started it - with the grace of God. This final message in our series looks at how the grace of God to the Colossians is found in the very words that the apostle wrote to them. The entire book of Colossians is an undeserved gift of God's goodness to us. The Word of God to us is the grace of God for us.

Luke and Demas - Two coworkers who were with Paul while the apostle was under house arrest in Rome. A few years later only one of them was still found by Paul's side. The other deserted him. In this message we look at why someone would walk away from God and we learn what we should look for in our own lives that would indicate if we will stay faithful until the end.

Paul uses a phrase in Colossians 4:11 when he identifies three of his fellow countrymen who had joined his ministry team; he labels them his "coworkers for the kingdom of God." In this message we take a brief look at the nature of work, the kingdom of God, and how those two ideas are connected.

Failure is a part of life. It is inevitable. Everyone fails. But not everyone recovers from their failures and overcomes them. Mark was somebody who did. In this message we look at what the Apostle Paul wrote to the Colossians concerning Mark and we learn some valuable lessons about overcoming failure.

Paul allocates one half verse to mentioning his fellow prisoner Aristarchus. And he uses these few words at the front end of Colossians 4:10 to relay a message from Aristarchus to the believers at Colossae. And the message is this: Greetings! In this sermon we take a look at the significance of the New Testament greeting and we draw out an implication for our lives by looking at the circumstances that Aristarchus sends his greetings from.

Onesimus comes back home. The backstory behind his leaving Colossae and his return to it is fascinating. And it teaches us a valuable lesson about who we are in Christ. 

Tychicus was sent by Paul to deliver his letter to the Colossians. And in that letter, Paul wrote about Tychicus, commending him to the church at Colossae. Why did Paul do that? And what are the implications of Tychicus' commendation for Christians today?

Are you a Christian who wants to be used by God when it comes to leading outsiders into the Kingdom of Heaven? In this message we take a look at how Paul instructed the believers in Colossae to engage with those outside the church. The instructions are timeless. Every believer today would do well to take Paul's words to heart. 

Most Christians are not called by God to travel to distant lands to bring the gospel to people who have yet to hear it. But that doesn't mean they aren't called to bring the gospel to people. Because they are! You don't need to hop on a plane to go and share the Good News about Jesus with someone. You can find people in your own backyard who need to hear the message that can save their lives.
