Put Off, Put On: The Impossible Task Made Possible
Uncover the hidden crisis that destroyed the church at Ephesus despite their theological correctness and moral vigilance.

Explore the radical difference between religious striving and Spirit-led transformation, plus the unexpected freedom found in admitting your powerlessness.

Genesis - Trading Control for Kingdom Power
Why do the most powerful people often feel the most anxious? Pharaoh commanded armies and empires yet couldn't sleep because of two vivid dreams. His court experts were useless, but a forgotten prisoner had answers that would save the known world. This isn't about dream interpretation - it's about discovering that true security comes from surrendering control, not grasping it tighter.

Genesis - Prison Paradox: Finding Freedom While Still Broken
Uncover the hidden strategy of serving others while you're still broken. Through Joseph's prison experience, explore why waiting to be 'fixed' before helping others keeps you trapped in personal prisons. This message challenges the common belief that self-care must come before service, revealing how God uses our wounds as weapons of hope for others facing similar battles.

Genesis - Blessed Beyond Prosperity
Think integrity guarantees personal health, wealth or success? Joseph's story shatters that myth. Despite his incredible faithfulness, he faces betrayal, false accusations, and imprisonment—yet Scripture declares him blessed throughout. Discover the radical difference between worldly success and biblical blessing, and how God's favor creates freedom even in chains. This isn't your typical prosperity message—it's something far more powerful and practical.

Do You Believe This? Living the Abundant Life Now
Ever feel like life ping-pongs you between spiritual highs and crushing lows? This teaching exposes why activities, relationships, and even ministry can create dangerous "illusions of life" that leave us empty when stripped away. Learn the difference between being "used by God" versus being His partner, and discover why Jesus fulfilling the law is like "leveling up" in a video game.

Genesis - The Pit Before the Palace
Abraham Lincoln said reputation is a shadow, but character is the tree. Through Joseph's journey from favored son to slave to Egyptian ruler, explore why God disciplines through suffering rather than comfort.

Genesis - I Won’t Let Go Until You Bless Me
Most people think independence is strength, but this ancient story reveals why God sometimes has to "cripple" our self-reliance.

Learn why clinging to God requires the opposite of what our culture teaches about success and why your greatest weakness might be your ticket to breakthrough.

Genesis - Flawed Instruments, Perfect Plans
What if your family drama, work chaos, and inner turmoil aren't obstacles to God's plan—but the actual method? This teaching reveals the unorthodox truth that God doesn't wait for ideal conditions to work miracles. Through the scandalous story of Israel's founding family, learn to recognize God's hand specifically because of the mess, not despite it. The most encouraging news: divine purposes advance through human failings, not around them.

Genesis - Sacred Interruptions
Why God shows up when we're NOT looking for Him. Jacob—a deceiver on the run—encountered God using a rock as a pillow during an unplanned camping trip. This isn't about trying harder to find God; it's about recognizing He's already there in grocery store conversations, work frustrations, and life's ordinary chaos.

The Accessible God
"Do we only surround ourselves with people who think like us, believe like us, vote like us? Do we come across like our perspective is the only perspective?"

Genesis - Stolen Blessings
Jacob lied his way into God's blessing using goat skins and his brother's clothes. The twist? He got exactly what he schemed for—then spent 30 years paying for it. His mother Rebecca never saw him again after securing his blessing. The very deception Jacob used later became the weapon his own sons used against him. Sometimes God lets you have exactly what you manipulated to get, knowing the getting teaches more than losing ever could.

Genesis - The Great Inversion
Why does God repeatedly choose the younger over the older, the weak over the strong, and the humble over the mighty? From Genesis to Jesus, Scripture reveals a stunning pattern of divine inversions that challenge everything we think we know about power, privilege, and purpose. Through the dramatic story of Jacob and Esau's birthright exchange, this message unpacks how God's kingdom operates on entirely different principles than our comparison-driven world. If you're struggling with feelings of inadequacy or questioning God's justice when life seems unfair, this teaching reveals the beautiful truth behind Christ's declaration that "the last shall be first, and the first shall be last.

Genesis - The Arranged Marriage That Saved the World
From the world's first computer dating service to modern apps that create millions of matches daily, humans have always been searching for love. But what if the greatest love story isn't found on Tinder, but in an ancient text?

This timeless tale shows us that God is actively working behind the scenes—often answering prayers before we even finish asking them—to fulfill promises that span generations and ultimately point to Jesus.

Building on the Rock
Have you ever felt like life’s foundation was crumbling beneath you? In this week’s teaching, we go from a collapsing cliffside in Bodega Bay to the bedrock truth of Jesus' words in Matthew 7.

Join us as we explore what it really means to build on the Rock—and why many of us unknowingly settle for sand.

The Loud Supper
"You will grieve, but your grief will turn to joy." Jesus spoke these words hours before his crucifixion—but was he making an empty promise?

Discover why your current sorrow may actually be the setup for profound joy that surpasses all understanding.

The Lord’s Supper
We clamor for strong leaders, military might, and intimidating presence to bring us peace. Yet throughout history, even the greatest kings left their nations longing for more. Join us as we explore the radical difference between earthly kings who take from their people and Jesus—the humble King who gave everything. Discover how Jesus' counterintuitive kingship offers a peace that worldly power never could, challenging us to reconsider where we place our ultimate allegiance.

The Least Supper
We’re surrounded by stuff, yet still starving inside. This teaching examines how the crowd pursued physical bread, while Jesus offered something far deeper: Himself. Join us as we look at the tragic difference between seeking satisfaction in what we consume versus who we follow. Jesus doesn’t just feed your body—He fills your soul. When your desires outpace your fulfillment, maybe it’s time to ask: what am I really hungry for?

Religion vs. Real Livin’
Are you tired of a faith that feels lifeless? Jesus didn’t come to start a religion—He came to bring real life. In this message, we contrast man-made religion with the abundant life Jesus offers. Join us as we explore how to move from duty to delight, from rules to relationship.

Genesis - Tested Faith to Triumphant Faith

If you’ve ever wrestled with trusting God in the unknown, this message is for you.

Genesis - The Cost of Compromise
Genesis 19 paints a vivid picture of a city lost to sin, yet beneath the fire and brimstone lies a deeper story—one of intercession, grace, and God’s unrelenting mercy. Why did Abraham plead for Sodom? What can we learn from Lot’s choices? This story isn’t just ancient history—it’s a prophetic and timely warning for us today. Join us and discover the dangerous pattern that can lead any of us astray—and the hope-filled antidote God provides even in the darkest circumstances.
