Deuteronomy 6:1-9 | The D6 Dad (Father’s Day 2026)
6d agoTap to summarizePastor Gerrit preaches from Deuteronomy 6 on Father's Day, drawing out six qualities of what he calls the "D6 dad.Pastor Gerrit preaches from Deuteronomy 6 on Father's Day, drawing out six qualities of what he calls the "D6 dad." The passage was originally Moses's charge to Israelite fathers heading into Canaan, where the real danger wasn't military but spiritual, the temptation to drift away from God and into the worship of false gods. Those same pressures show up today, and Deuteronomy 6 gives fathers a framework for leading their families spiritually through duty, discipline, devotion, doctrine, diligence, and defense. At the heart of it all is the Shema, the ancient Hebrew declaration that God is one, and the command to love him with everything and pass that love on to the next generation.

1 Kings 8 | The Glory of God Fills The House
1w agoTap to summarizePastor Bobby walks through 1 Kings 8 and the dedication of Solomon's temple, exploring what it means for God to dwell among his people. Solomon's prayer reveals a God who keeps his promises across generations, hears the prayers of sinners and foreigners, and can't be contained by any building or tradition. The temple wasn't made glorious by its cedar and gold but by God's presence filling it, and without that presence it was just a structure. Jesus becomes the fulfillment of everything the temple pointed toward, the true dwelling place of God among us.

Luke 10:1-24 | Life's Ultimate Privileges
2w agoTap to summarizePastor Kevin Day walks through Luke 10 and four joys of the Christian life: being sent to represent Jesus, being safe under his care, being used to reach people who don't know him, and rejoicing in salvation. Jesus sent his followers out two by two into a world he described as a harvest field with too few workers, and that picture still holds. The shepherd who sends them is also the one protecting them along the way. And when the seventy came back amazed that even demons obeyed, Jesus redirected their excitement toward the thing that actually lasts: their names are written in heaven.

1 Kings 7 | He Establishes, He Strengthens
2w agoTap to summarizeIn 1 Kings 7, Pastor Gerrit walks through the furnishings of Solomon's temple and what they reveal about God's character and his relationship with his people.In 1 Kings 7, Pastor Gerrit walks through the furnishings of Solomon's temple and what they reveal about God's character and his relationship with his people. The temple was built with costly stones even in the foundation, unseen by anyone, because Solomon wanted to honor a God worth his very best. The bronze pillars, the massive water reservoir used for ceremonial cleansing, and the golden incense altar each point forward to something greater: the cleansing that comes through faith in Jesus, and the prayers that rise to God like a sweet aroma. Because of Christ, the veil that once separated people from God's presence has been torn, and anyone can now draw near with confidence.

Luke 9:37-62 | Life at the Bottom of the Mountain
3w agoTap to summarizePastor Kevin teaches from Luke 9 on self-denial and what it costs to follow Jesus off the mountaintop and into ordinary life. The disciples come down from a glorious experience to find struggling people, problems beyond their ability to fix, and arguments about who among them is the greatest. Jesus reframes all of it, using a child to show that true greatness looks nothing like the world expects. Faithfulness is not about spiritual highs but humble, forward-facing surrender to Christ.

1 Kings 5-6 | Building with the Best
3w agoTap to summarizeIn this sermon on 1 Kings 5 and 6, Pastor Gerrit walks through Solomon's preparation and construction of the temple in Jerusalem. In this sermon on 1 Kings 5 and 6, Pastor Gerrit walks through Solomon's preparation and construction of the temple in Jerusalem. Solomon pursued the best materials and craftsmen not to impress anyone, but because he genuinely wanted to honor God with excellence. The passage raises a quiet but searching question: when we work for God, do we bring our best, or just enough to get by? God's promise to dwell among his people was conditional on obedience, a reminder that he's ultimately after our hearts, not our activity. In Christ, that temple is no longer a building but a people being shaped and fitted together as a dwelling place for God's Spirit.

Luke 9:37-46 | Three Lessons for Dense Disciples
4w agoTap to summarizePastor Gerrit walks through Luke 9:37-48, exploring what it looks like to follow Jesus not just in moments of spiritual highs, but in the ordinary and often messy work of loving people. Three lessons emerge from the story: disciples are called off the mountain and into ministry, real power for that ministry comes through faith and prayer rather than self-reliance, and true greatness in God's kingdom looks like humility and service rather than status. The father who brings his demon-possessed son to Jesus becomes a picture of persistent, honest faith, even when that faith feels shaky.

1 Kings 4 | Greater Than Solomon
May 28Tap to summarizeIn this message from 1 Kings 4, Pastor Paul walks through Solomon's reign at its peak and the theme that a greater King than Solomon has already come. Even Solomon's remarkable wisdom and glory pointed forward to something it could never fully be. Scripture presents Solomon as a living foreshadowing of Christ, and Jesus himself made that connection explicit when he told the Pharisees that something greater than Solomon was standing right in front of them. The peace Solomon's name promises finds its true fulfillment in Jesus, the Prince of Peace whose kingdom has no end.

Luke 9:27-36 | A Glimpse of Glory
May 24Tap to summarizeIn Luke 9:27–36, Pastor Kevin walks through the Transfiguration, where Jesus takes Peter, James, and John up a mountain and is revealed in radiant, blinding glory. Moses and Elijah appear alongside him, representing the law and the prophets, and their conversation centers on Jesus' coming death in Jerusalem. The Father's voice from the cloud interrupts Peter's impulse to build three tabernacles with a simple command: this is my beloved Son, hear him.

1 Kings 3 | An Understanding Heart for Solomon
May 21Tap to summarizeIn this message from 1 Kings 3, Pastor Gerrit walks through the early reign of King Solomon and the famous moment when God invited Solomon to ask for anything he wanted. Rather than requesting wealth or power, Solomon asked for wisdom to lead God's people well, and that humility is what pleased God most. The passage shows that wisdom begins with honestly admitting what we don't know and genuinely caring about the people we serve. God gave Solomon far more than he asked for, which says a lot about who God is and how he responds to a surrendered heart.
