I Believe in Holy Living
What does it really mean to believe? In this message on holy living, Pastor Jeff challenges us to move beyond intellectual belief into transformational action. Drawing from the church’s doctrinal statement, we are called to grow in Christlikeness, extend sacrificial love, combat evil, and make disciples. Belief isn’t just a statement—it’s a lifestyle.
I Believe in the Holy Spirit
What do we mean when we say, “I believe in the Holy Spirit”? In this message, we look beyond tradition and confusion to discover who the Spirit really is, what He does, and how He empowers our daily lives. From conviction to transformation, the Holy Spirit is not a force to be used but a divine person to be followed. This message challenges us to live by His power and submit fully to His leading.
We Are Salt and Light
Pastor Jeff unpacks the metaphors of salt and light from Matthew 5, urging the church to preserve truth and shine brightly in a dark world. Through stories of tasteless crackers and hidden lights, he calls believers to stand out, live with integrity, and impact others through good deeds.
Tongue Twisters
Our words have incredible power to shape relationships, bless or harm others, and reveal the true state of our hearts. In this message from James 3, Pastor Jeff explores the "twists" of the tongue—how it is small but mighty, mighty but deadly, and deadly yet beneficial. Learn why surrendering to the Spirit of God is essential for truly life-giving speech.
How Real Faith Works
What does real faith look like? James challenges us to examine whether our faith is truly alive or merely words without action. True faith shows itself in love, service, and obedience, moving from our hearts into the world around us. This message calls us to a faith that is not dead or shallow but deeply transformative.
The Trap of Partiality
Partiality is not just a minor slip-up; it's a serious sin that goes against the heart of God. In this message from James 2, we explore how favoritism creeps into our lives and churches, and how to overcome it by judging correctly, living purely, and showing mercy. Discover practical steps to break free from this trap and embody the love and mercy of Christ in every relationship.
A Better Way
In this message from the book of James, we’re called to pursue a better way when it comes to anger and how we respond to others. Instead of reacting quickly, James encourages us to listen first, speak carefully, and act on God’s Word. True faith isn’t just about hearing—it’s about doing, serving, and blessing others with humility and compassion.
Kingdom Pursuits
Jesus calls us to pursue a different kind of wealth—one that can’t be lost or stolen. This message challenges us to evaluate where our hearts truly are by examining what we store up, whom we serve, and how we see the world. Instead of being consumed by worry, we are invited to daily trust and seek God’s kingdom above all else.
Kingdom Expectations
We all carry expectations—but Jesus offers us three expectations that reshape what it means to follow Him: giving, praying, and fasting. In this message from Matthew 6, Pastor Ben Marshall challenges us to examine the heart behind these practices. Are they done for show, or do they flow from a real relationship with God? Discover how Jesus leads us into deeper transformation by calling us into a Kingdom that’s upside down—and yet perfectly right side up.
