God Brings Order | Genesis 1:3-13
3d ago01:02:28Tap to summarizeGenesis 1:3–13 shows us a God who brings order by His word. He does not struggle with chaos or negotiate with darkness—He speaks, and light shines, waters separate, land appears, and the world begins to flourish. In this message, we see God ordering time, the world above us, and the ground beneath us, revealing that creation is not random, rival-driven, or self-made, but fully under His wise and sovereign rule. As this new Genesis series continues, we’re reminded that the God who ordered the cosmos is still the One who brings purpose, rhythm, and fruitfulness to our lives today—and calls us to trust Him with what we cannot control.Message Notes: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1sxeHXdyZJKPeiBjToM0LpNsm1nXwPVwb/view?usp=sharing
Transcribe →In the Beginning | Genesis 1:1-2
1w ago00:50:09Tap to summarizeGenesis 1:1–2 opens the Bible by introducing us to the God who is before all things, over all things, and already at work to bring order, life, and purpose out of emptiness. In this first message of our new series, In the Beginning, we look at what it means that Scripture starts not with humanity, sin, or a problem to solve—but with God. As we begin walking through Genesis in three movements—Primeval, Patriarchs, and Prince—we’re invited to see God as Creator and King, the One whose Spirit hovers over the waters and whose presence brings light into darkness. This sermon calls us to move beyond merely asking what we know, and instead to ask the deeper question: do we truly know the God who begins the story?Message Notes: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1S9wmm5wrCJ74_pgMhhNrYxA4OGdV5jeK/view?usp=sharing
Transcribe →Come, Lord Jesus | Revelation 22:6-21
2w ago00:51:39Tap to summarizeRevelation 22:6–21 closes the book with a clear and urgent call: Jesus is coming soon, His words are faithful and true, and His people must be ready. In this message, we see why worship belongs to God alone, why Revelation is meant to be kept and obeyed rather than merely studied, and how the church is called to live with both expectancy and invitation—crying out, “Come, Lord Jesus,” while also inviting the thirsty to come and receive the water of life. This sermon reminds us that the end of the story is not fear but grace, and calls us to live as faithful witnesses until the King returns.Message Notes: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1OQrwygPte99um9Hc_Hccbl22f0DIP93l/view?usp=sharing
Transcribe →New Heaven and New Earth | Revelation 21-22:5
3w ago00:49:42Tap to summarizeRevelation 21–22:5 brings Scripture to its breathtaking conclusion with the vision of the new heaven and new earth. In this message, we see God making all things new, the new Jerusalem coming down as both a city and a bride, and the full reality of God dwelling with His people forever. Death, sorrow, pain, curse, and darkness are gone, while the river of life flows, the tree of life heals, and the glory of God fills everything.This sermon calls us to live now as people of the coming kingdom—rejecting what belongs to the old world and anchoring our hope in the day when we will see His face and reign with Him forever.Message Notes: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1zS_O1xdQkpP0qP2GIRFgydRbJe1xYsty/view?usp=sharing
Transcribe →Great White Throne Judgement | Revelation 20:11-15
Apr 1900:54:56Tap to summarizeRevelation 20:11–15 confronts us with the reality of the final judgment, where every person stands before the great white throne of God. In this message, we see the absolute authority and perfect justice of the One seated on the throne, the books opened, the dead raised, and every life revealed for what it truly was.This sermon reminds us that judgment is not merely about what we have done, but about who we belong to—those written in the Lamb’s book of life. It calls us to live with eternal urgency, reject casual Christianity, and rest our hope fully in Jesus, the only One who can prepare us for that day.Message Notes: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1xpZy6ee06Hp8NwB50uRDqCBWqA28fmiy/view?usp=sharing
Transcribe →Who Needs it? | Revelation 19:11–20:15
Apr 1501:03:38Tap to summarizeRevelation 19:11–20:15 points us to the certainty of Christ’s final victory and the urgency of His present mission. In this message, we see Jesus as the warrior-king who decisively defeats His enemies, the One who is already reigning and restraining evil, and the Judge before whom every person will stand. Rather than getting lost in timeline debates, this sermon calls us to focus on what the passage makes clear: history is under Christ’s control, Satan’s power is limited, and every delayed day of judgment is mercy for the sake of the nations. The question is not just when the end will come, but who still needs to hear the gospel before it does.Message Notes: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1XYfdgErEJpRfmCJSIvEC7ZV2-bgRLPKJ/view?usp=sharing
Transcribe →Easter Sunday | Exodus and the Resurrection
Apr 700:53:01Tap to summarizeOn Easter Sunday, we celebrate the God who makes a way where there is no way. Looking at Exodus 14 alongside the resurrection of Jesus, this message shows how the parting of the Red Sea points forward to Christ’s victory over sin, death, and the chaos that holds us captive. Just as God led Israel out of slavery through the waters, Jesus—our true Passover Lamb—has made a way for us to be delivered, made new, and brought into life. This sermon is a call to trust Him, follow Him in obedience, and believe that the same God who conquered death still leads His people through impossible places today.Message Notes: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1BGUjPE5lpYE4rUKwzxsdVm9sNHghekbR/view?usp=sharing

Transcribe →What are You Wearing for Dinner? | Revelation 19
Mar 2400:37:18Tap to summarizeRevelation 19 brings us to the celebration and the showdown: Babylon has fallen, heaven erupts with hallelujahs, the marriage supper of the Lamb is announced, and Jesus rides in as Faithful and True to defeat every enemy. In this message, we explore what it means to be dressed in the “fine linen” of the saints, why worship is our primary act of resistance in a world demanding misplaced allegiance, and how Christ conquers not by worldly power but by the sword of His mouth. This sermon calls us to rejoice in the Lamb’s victory, refuse loyalty to lesser kings, and live now as people preparing for the great wedding feast of God.Message Notes: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1FbPCNbxHXSo2FW2Ih2C1NN7SEH9rdKLE/view?usp=drive_link
Transcribe →The System (Babylon) is Obliterated | Revelation 18
Mar 1500:49:43Tap to summarizeRevelation 18 shows the total collapse of Babylon—the corrupt world system built on idolatry, greed, luxury, deception, and the exploitation of human lives. In this message, we see that Babylon is more than a political empire; it is the earthly expression of a deeper spiritual rebellion that stands opposed to God and intoxicates the nations. As heaven calls God’s people to “come out of her,” we’re challenged to take inventory of our desires, influences, and witness, and to live as people whose hearts belong to the kingdom of Christ. Even as Babylon falls, this chapter reminds us that God’s judgments are true and righteous, and that His victory will bring vindication, justice, and worship from all who belong to Him.Message Notes: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1zGrH0TzofVxVfwSjzW3nGhm3opx5mOS-/view?usp=sharing
