What Jesus Wants For Christmas
AdventMatt.2.1-Matt.2.12
Christmas reminds us of all we receive through Christ - hope, peace, joy, and love. But have we considered what we can give the one who's birth we are actually celebrating? What does Jesus want for his birthday? Like the Magi, whose true…
Satisfied By His Love
AdventLuke.2.10-Luke.2.11|Isa.55|1John.4.9-1John.4.10|John.3.16-John.3.17
At the core of every longing is a hunger for love that no relationship, experience, achievement, or pleasure can sustain. Isaiah 55 invites us to stop chasing what cannot satisfy and to come to the God who freely gives what our hearts most…
All In With Joy

In a moment when words feel insufficient to heal real pain, this message reminds us that Jesus remains unchanged - faithful yesterday, today, and forever. Joy is not shallow happiness or denial of suffering, but as a deep, sustaining gift…

What Do You Want? (Exodus 33)
What Do You Want? (Exodus 33)Exod.33.1-Exod.33.16
After the golden calf, God tells Israel He will still give them the Promised Land—but He will not go with them. What sounds like mercy becomes “a disastrous word,” because the people finally realize that the true gift was never the land or…
Does Anyone Care About God? (Exodus 32 Part 2)
Does Anyone Care About God?Exod.32
The golden calf isn’t just a moment of foolishness - it’s spiritual betrayal. Israel still wanted the promised land, still wanted God’s blessings, but not God Himself. In contrast, Moses responds with a heart radically centered on God -…
Sorry For The Delay (Exodus 32)
Sorry For The DelayExod.32.21-Exod.32.24|Exod.32.1-Exod.32.6
When Moses didn’t come down from the mountain as quickly as the people expected, Israel grew restless—and in their waiting, they turned to something they could see. What began as delay led to distortion, compromise, and idolatry. In this…
Details (Exodus 25-30)
DetailsExod.24.12-Exod.24.18|Exod.25-Exod.28|Exod.29.41-Exod.29.46

Covenant (Exodus 24)
CovenantExod.24.1-Exod.24.11|2Tim.2.4-2Tim.2.6|Eph.2.13|Mark.14.22-Mark.14.25|Rev.19.5-Rev.19.9
In Exodus 24, God establishes His covenant with Israel—sealed in blood, confirmed by sacrifice, and celebrated with a shared meal in His presence. Though His people later broke that covenant, God’s mercy endured. In Jesus Christ, the true…
Little By Little (Exodus 23)
Little By LittleExod.23.20-Exod.23.33
God didn’t just redeem His people to obey Him—He redeemed them to walk with Him. In Exodus 23, we see that God leads, protects, and provides through His presence, sending His angel to guard and guide His people on the journey. Along the…
To The Greater Glory Of God
Family Weekend 2025Matt.6.25-Matt.6.34|Heb.4.14-Heb.4.16|2Cor.9.8
We tend to make life all about us. Even when we seek the LORD, our pursuit of Him is often so we can get what we want or to make our lives better. The people who do not know God have no choice but to live for themselves, why would we…
Love God. Love People.
Family Weekend 2025Lev.19.9-Lev.19.37|1Pet.2.9-1Pet.2.12|Exod.19-Exod.20|Exod.22.21-Exod.22.28|Exod.23.1-Exod.23.9

God calls His people to remember who He is and who they are meant to be before Him. Drawing from Deuteronomy 6 and Jesus’ words in Matthew 22, this message reminds us that everything God has spoken—from the Law to the prophets—rests on one…
That They Would Fear Me Always (Exodus 19-20)
That They Would Fear Me AlwaysExod.19|Exod.20|Deut.5|Heb.12
Israel’s encounter with God at Sinai reminds us that the same God who rescues with grace is also the God who reigns in glory. Their fear before the mountain was right and pleasing to Him—a holy awe that He still desires from His people…
Before I Tell You What To Do... (Exodus 19)
Before I Tell You What To Do...Exod.3|Exod.19.1-Exod.19.6
God doesn’t start with demands; He starts with deliverance. At Sinai, Israel learned—and we must remember—that obedience grows out of God’s saving work already done. Yahweh is not like the gods of Egypt, demanding sacrifice to earn his…
God's Word Brings Change
God's Word Brings Change
Hearing, believing and obeying God's word, revealed in Scripture is what brings change to our lives. Church attendance, serving, singing and fellowshipping are important and great - but it is God's word that transforms. Let's renew our…
The Jethro Plan (Exodus 18)
The Jethro PlanExod.18|Acts.6.1-Acts.6.6
Jethro saw what Moses couldn’t: he was doing good work, but not in a way that could last. Jethro's approach with Moses models good and godly counsel. Through this passage, we are reminded that God often uses wise voices around us to show…
Keep Your Hands Up
Keep Your Hands UpExod.17.8-Exod.17.16
The victory over Amalek came when Moses’ hands were lifted, Joshua fought, and Aaron and Hur gave their support. This story reminds us that God values every person, that our faithfulness impacts others, and that we were never meant to walk…
We Need God (Exodus 17)
We Need GodExod.17.1-Exod.17.7|Ps.95
At Massah and Meribah, Israel faced a familiar test—but instead of learning from the past, they defaulted to complaint and unbelief. God used the moment to show them that the real question was not about water, but about His presence. This…
TESTimony (Exodus 16)
TESTimonyExod.16|Deut.2.7|Deut.8.2-Deut.8.10
Every testimony begins with a test. In the wilderness, God taught His people—and us—that when we trust Him in the trial, He provides, sustains, and shows Himself faithful. Tests in our lives reveal where we are weak, but they also reveal…
How Did You Do On The Test? (Exodus 15)
How Did You Do On The Test?2Tim.2.15-2Tim.2.16|John.14.26|2Cor.13.5|Exod.15.1-Exod.15.26|Jas.1.3-Jas.1.5
From the Red Sea to the bitter waters of Marah, Israel went from worship to worry overnight. Their test revealed hearts quick to complain rather than trust. Our tests serve the same purpose—not to fail us, but to form us, teaching us to…
Cut To The Chase (Exodus 13-14)
Cut To The ChaseGen.50.24-Gen.50.25|Exod.13.17-Exod.13.22|Exod.14.10-Exod.14.31
We live in a culture that wants to ‘cut to the chase’—to skip the process and get straight to the result. But in Exodus 13, God takes Israel the long way out of Egypt, protecting them from battles they aren’t ready for and teaching them to…
The Lord Prays
The Lord PraysJohn.17
Jesus not only taught his disciples how to pray - he also prayed for them. In John 17, we find the longest recorded prayer of Jesus, revealing the heart of our Lord as he prays not only for his first disciples, but also for us, his…
Teach Us To Pray
Teach Us To PrayHeb.4.14|1John.5.13-1John.5.15|Luke.11.1-Luke.11.10
At first glance, it’s surprising that the disciples—who walked with Jesus and ministered in his name—would ask, “Lord, teach us to pray.” But prayer is something we can become overly familiar with, even jaded toward, despite how central it…
Open My Eyes
Open My Eyes2Kgs.6.1-2Kgs.6.23
Sometimes we can only see the problem in front of us—but God sees the full picture. In this message from 2 Kings 6, we’re reminded that the God who knows where a small lost item is also knows where we are, and He invites us to trust Him…
Still Praising
Still PraisingDan.6|Jonah.2|Ps.63
When life is hard, praise can feel far away. But Scripture shows us a different rhythm—one where worship rises not from comfort, but from conviction. Even when you're far away and alone, in the belly of a fish or a wilderness of fear, God…
The God Who Sees
The God Who SeesGen.16|Gen.21
In a story full of brokenness, injustice, and pain, the encounter between Hagar and God in the wilderness reveals a profound truth: God hears and God sees. Though Hagar was mistreated, forgotten, and cast out, the LORD met her personally…
This Kind Comes Out By Prayer
This Kind Comes Out By PrayerMark.9.14-Mark.9.29
The disciples had experience, knowledge, and authority—yet they couldn’t cast out the demon. In Mark 9, Jesus reveals that some battles can’t be won by effort, argument, or familiarity—they only come out by prayer. This message calls us…
Friend
Jesus has been exalted as king, priest, and leader of the church. And yet his exaltation hasn't changed his heart. Jesus remains a friend, inviting us to come to him and know him.
Head Of The Church
AscensionEph.1.18-Eph.1.23|Col.2|Rev.2-Rev.3
Christ has been exalted above every name and given as head over all things—for the Church. In this message, we’re reminded that Jesus is not a distant figurehead, but an active, present shepherd who speaks, sustains, and leads His body…
Jesus Our Helper
AscensionHeb.4.14-Heb.4.16
When life is overwhelming and we feel our weakness, we’re reminded that the ascended Jesus is serving as our great high priest. Even in that exalted role, he remains sympathetic and extends mercy, grace, and help. We're invited to draw…
Exalted To Show Mercy

Though Jesus now holds all authority in heaven and on earth, we often wonder why His power isn’t fully visible yet. This message explores the biblical tension between His present reign and His delayed return, reminding us that the delay is…
Ascension
AscensionActs.1|Dan.7|Eph.1.15-Eph.1.23
The ascension of Jesus isn’t just about his departure or physical movement—it’s about his coronation. The Scriptures show us that Jesus has taken His rightful place at the right hand of God, ruling with unmatched authority. And because he…
I Am Not The Christ
I Am Not The ChristJohn.1.19-John.1.37|John.3.22-John.3.30
In a world where our identity is constantly challenged by comparison, criticism, and change, this message reminds us of the unshakable truth: our identity is not something we achieve—it’s something we receive from Christ. When we know…
Let God Be God
Let God Be GodIsa.40.12-Isa.40.31
Isaiah 40 reminds us of God's limitless power, presence, and knowledge. It also describes how the LORD knows the number of stars but also sees us and knows our heart. We often wear ourselves out trying to do God’s job—fixing, controlling…
Consistency
ConsistencyProv.25.27|Rom.7.14-Rom.7.15
Change in our lives is less about major moments and crises and more about daily decisions. Over time, small steps in God's direction or away from Him, shape who and where we are today. We all can relate to frustration that comes by…
Can't Get Over It
Can't Get Over ItActs.2|Acts.3|Acts.4|Acts.5
They didn’t get over it — and neither should we. The resurrection of Jesus launched and fueled the early church and empowers his people today. It was the center of their message, the source of their confidence, and the clarity for their…
Remember His Words
Remember His WordsLuke.24|1Thess.4.13-1Thess.4.18
The angels didn’t just announce the resurrection—they reminded the disciples of what Jesus had already said. The disciples couldn’t see the resurrection coming—because they were still stuck in their own version of the story. This message…
Atonement
AtonementLev.16|Mark.15
In this message, we look at how the Day of Atonement points ahead to what Jesus did on the cross. From the torn veil to the scapegoat, it all shows how Jesus made a way for us to be forgiven and come close to God. And even as Jesus is…
Friendship
FriendshipMatt.26.31-Matt.26.50|John.15.12-John.15.17|Prov
What does the Bible say about friendship? How can I find and be a good friend? We'll look at 4 elements of friendship from the Scripture and discover where we can find a trustworthy friend for life. This message was preached by Pastor…
Jesus Saw Their Faith
Jesus Saw Their FaithMatt.13.53-Matt.13.58|Mark.2.1-Mark.2.12
Do you have friends who help bring you to Jesus and encourage your faith? Do you have friends who pull you away and extinguish your faith? Which kind of friend are you? Looking at two gospel stories we discover how relationships are often…
What Jesus Is Going To Say
What Jesus Is Going To SayMatt.25.31-Matt.25.46|Ezek.34.1-Ezek.34.17
Jesus has already told us what he is going to say on the day of judgement. Hearing his words can help us orient our lives about what really matters now in light of eternity. This message was preached by Pastor Victor Gluckin at Living…
Don't Play It Safe
Don't Play It SafeProv.3.5-Prov.3.6|Matt.25.14-Matt.25.30
Fear stops us from living by faith and fully giving ourselves to God. There is risk involved in trusting God and His way but the reward is great. Playing it safe isn't a virtue of a follower of Jesus. Jesus' parable of the talents from…
Do It God's Way
Do It God's WayExod.25.10-Exod.25.14|Num.4|Num.7|1Chr.15|2Sam.6
It's tempting to take matters into our own hands when doing things God's way seems hard or slow. As David brought the ark of the covenant into Jerusalem, he learned an important lesson about doing things God's way rather than improvising…
The Place For God
The Place For God1Sam.4-1Sam.7
The LORD deserves first place in all things. He's not simply a lifeline we call in times of crisis nor an accessory we add to our already cluttered lives for good luck or blessing. Does the LORD have the proper place in our heart today? 1…
Hopeful & Hurting
ResurrectionJohn.11
John 11 tells the story of Lazarus' death and resurrection and teaches us about hope, hurt, and how Jesus meets us in both places. We discover that sometimes the love of God is known not but the removal of difficulty, but the redemption…
Do Not Be Deceived
Resurrection1Cor.15
Paul writes that the early church was being told by some that there was no resurrection of the dead. Though falsehoods like this seem obviously false, we too face subtle calls to ignore the reality of the resurrection day. The resurrection…
We're Coming Back
ResurrectionJer.32|Matt.13.44-Matt.13.46|1Cor.15.32-1Cor.15.34
The prophet Jeremiah believed God's word and made decisions because of this belief. At times he seemed foolish to those who did not have faith in God's promises. Jeremiah believed that even though difficult times and exile were on the…
Immortality
ResurrectionEccl.9.1-Eccl.9.6|Gen.2-Gen.3|John.3.16-John.3.17|Rom.6.23|Rev.21-Rev.22
Death is something our culture avoids thinking about but cannot avoid experiencing in the end. No matter your status in life, all humans share the same fate. The Bible teaches us how death entered our world and God's plan for immortality…
Resurrection
ResurrectionJohn.5.24-John.5.29|1Cor.15.51-1Cor.15.55|1Thess.4.13-1Thess.4.18

The Berean Heart
The Berean HeartActs.17.1-Acts.17.12|John.5.39|2Tim.3
How do you interact with new or different information? Do you mindlessly accept it? Do you quickly reject it? The disciples from a city named Berea were commended for their humility to receive Paul's message, but also their commitment…
