Going Deeper: The Illusion of Control (with Danny Strange)
Apr 1900:48:28Tap to summarizeThis episode explores the tension between ambition and surrender, reminding us that God is not against our plans—but against the pride that assumes control over them. Through the lens of James 4, we’re invited to hold our goals with open hands, trusting that true security comes from aligning our lives with God’s will, not our certainty. Ultimately, the conversation challenges us to rethink success as faithful, open-handed planning rather than guaranteed outcomes.
Transcribe →The Illusion of Control (Full Sermon)
Apr 1900:31:48Tap to summarizeJames confronts the illusion of control. Planning life without reference to God reveals functional double-mindedness — trusting self while claiming faith. The single-minded life holds plans loosely and God firmly, acknowledging dependence in every breath and decision. From our "A Study Through James" series • Danny Strange
Transcribe →Going Deeper: Humbly Return to God (with Austin Payne)
Apr 1201:15:44Tap to summarizeThis week’s message from the Epistle of James challenges us to confront the root of a divided heart—our misplaced desires—and recognize how they lead us to chase what can never truly satisfy. Through a powerful call to humility, we’re reminded that God’s grace meets us not when we have it all together, but when we honestly turn back to Him. As we witness baptism, we see this truth lived out: a public return to God, where surrender leads to restoration and new life.
Transcribe →Humbly Return to God (Full Sermon)
Apr 1200:20:00Tap to summarizeJames names the root issue beneath conflict, restlessness, and spiritual drift: divided desire. Friendship with the world fractures intimacy with God. Yet James declares hope — God gives more grace. Repentance becomes the pathway back to wholeness. On Celebrate New Life Sunday, baptism embodies this movement: turning from divided allegiance and returning fully to God. From our "A Study Through James" series • Austin Payne
Transcribe →Going Deeper: A Life-Changing Conversation (with Danny Strange)
Apr 501:05:20Tap to summarizeAfter the resurrection, Jesus meets Peter on the shore—not to condemn him for his failure, but to restore him through a deeply personal conversation filled with grace, truth, and invitation. This message explores how Jesus pursues us in our lowest moments and invites us into healing, calling, and a renewed relationship with Him.
Transcribe →A Life-Changing Conversation (Full Sermon)
Apr 500:26:57Tap to summarizeOn Resurrection Sunday, we see how Jesus meets us personally—pursuing life-changing conversations filled with grace, mercy, and restoration. Through Peter’s story, we’re reminded that our failures don’t disqualify us; instead, Jesus invites us back, heals what’s broken, and calls us forward. The question is simple: will you respond to His invitation?Easter Sunday • Danny Strange
Transcribe →Going Deeper: What Kind of King (with Danny Strange)
Mar 2901:02:35Tap to summarizeIn this Palm Sunday message, we see Jesus revealed as a different kind of king—one who doesn’t conquer through power, but through sacrifice, confronting sin, death, and broken systems to bring true freedom. As Holy Week unfolds, we’re invited to recognize that His ultimate victory wasn’t on a throne, but through the cross and resurrection, where He pursued a personal relationship with us at any cost.
Transcribe →What Kind of King? (Full Sermon)
Mar 2900:34:52Tap to summarizeOn Palm Sunday, we ask: what kind of king is Jesus Christ? Walking through Holy Week, we see a King who confronts hypocrisy, defeats sin and death, and ultimately gives everything to pursue a relationship with us. This message invites you to experience the weight—and the beauty—of the week that changed everything. Palm Sunday • Danny Strange
Transcribe →Going Deeper: Wisdom from Above (with Pattie Krohn)
Mar 2201:08:00Tap to summarizeThis week, Pattie Krohn walks through James 3:13–18, exploring the difference between earthly wisdom and wisdom from above. True wisdom begins with a pure heart and flows outward in peace, humility, and generosity, while earthly wisdom is driven by envy and selfish ambition. Discover how we can receive God’s wisdom through awe, surrender, and community—and experience the good life it produces.
Transcribe →Wisdom From Above (Full Sermon)
Mar 2200:29:21Tap to summarizeJames contrasts two wisdoms competing for allegiance. Earthly wisdom fractures, elevates self, and produces disorder. Wisdom from above is singular, pure, peaceable, and fruitful. The single-minded life learns to see the world through God’s wisdom alone, cultivating peace and righteousness wherever it goes.From our "A Study Through James" series • Pattie Krohn
