Fruitful: Self-Control
1w ago00:36:10Tap to summarizeThe words we can’t take back, the line we keep crossing, the habit we’ve been trying to break for years—why do we keep doing what we don’t want to do? It’s one of the most human questions in the Bible. And according to Romans, just trying harder isn’t the answer. This week, discover why “I can’t” is where the spiritual fruit of self-control can begin to grow. Speaker: Rey Diaz, Melissa Campus Pastor
Transcribe →Fruitful: Gentleness
2w ago00:42:29Tap to summarizeWe don't usually think of gentleness as a strength. In a job interview, it sounds like a polite way of saying you lack drive. But that’s not at all what the Bible says. In fact, Jesus described himself with only two words: “humble” and “gentle.” Discover what gentleness really means—and why a lack of it may be doing more damage than you realize. Speaker: Jeff Jones, Lead Pastor
Transcribe →Fruitful: Faithfulness
3w ago00:42:22Tap to summarizePromises get broken—by institutions, by people, and, if we're honest, by us too. So when it comes to faithfulness, it's easy to end up in a blame game or a guilt spiral. But in Matthew 25, Jesus tells a story that reframes everything. This week, see how living with faithfulness comes down to a simple question: What have you been entrusted with, and what are you doing with it? Speaker: Eric Torrence, Executive Pastor of Creative Expressions
Transcribe →Fruitful: Goodness
4w ago00:34:05Tap to summarizeGoodness isn't a personality trait. It's not about being nice or less difficult; it’s something meant to move through you for the benefit of other people. And here's the surprising, beautiful part: you don't have to manufacture it. Learn where real goodness actually comes from and how to live it out in three helpful, practical ways. Speaker: Ryan Leak, Teaching Pastor
Transcribe →Jesus Never Said: Church is for Church People
May 100:42:43Tap to summarizeChurch can be a complicated word. For some it carries warmth. For others, it carries weight. But whatever your experience with it, Jesus had a clear vision for what church was supposed to be—and he never said it was just for church people. This week, discover what it looks like to be a "by all possible means" community willing to set aside comfort and preference to reach the people nobody else is reaching. Speaker: Jeff Jones, Lead Pastor
Transcribe →Jesus Never Said: Name It and Claim It
Apr 2400:40:35Tap to summarizeSome people view prayer as vending machine: put in enough faith, punch the right buttons, and out comes what you asked for. That's the promise behind "name it and claim it." But Jesus never said it—and it's not how prayer works. This week, discover what Jesus taught about asking, seeking, and knocking, and learn why the real answer to prayer is more powerful than just getting whatever you want. Speaker: Jeff Jones, Lead Pastor
Transcribe →Jesus Never Said: Follow Your Heart
Apr 1700:35:50Tap to summarize"Follow your heart" might be the most common decision-making advice that nobody ever questions. It seems freeing—that is, until your heart leads you somewhere that future you has to clean up. This week, find out what Jesus actually said about the heart and learn three practical guardrails for getting in the right place before making any judgment call. Speaker: Ryan Leak, Teaching Pastor
Transcribe →Jesus Never Said: Find Your Purpose Within
Apr 1000:32:50Tap to summarizeWe've all heard it: follow your dreams. Find your purpose within. You do you. It sounds right. It might even sound a little Jesus-y. But Jesus never said any of it, and chasing that kind of purpose tends to leave us emptier than when we started. This week, discover why self at the center always comes up short, and how the answer to one question shifts everything: not what you're supposed to do, but the "why" that guides you. Speaker: Jeff Jones, Lead Pastor
Transcribe →Easter at Chase Oaks 2026: Easter at Chase Oaks 2026
Apr 300:25:15Tap to summarizeHope is unfolding, and that's good news for a world that needs it. This Easter, we're taking a fresh look at the story of Lazarus—one of the most honest stories Jesus ever stepped into. It doesn't skip over the hard parts. It just refuses to let them have the last word.Two thousand years ago, standing outside a tomb, Jesus spoke of hope and asked a question that still echoes for us today: Do you believe this? Speaker: Jeff Jones, Lead Pastor
Transcribe →Fruitful: Kindness
Mar 2700:48:26Tap to summarizeWhen was the last time someone was unkind to you? In a world that's increasingly unkind, showing kindness can feel like something nice people do — not something strong people need. This week, discover what one of Jesus' most famous and provocative stories reveals about who our neighbor really is, and what it actually looks like to be kind when the people around you aren't. Speaker: Eric Torrence, Executive Pastor of Creative Expressions
