Bible Teacher Gary Thomas teaches out of Colossians 1:25, reminding us that following Jesus means loving and serving His church. While churches are imperfect and can sometimes cause disappointment, ultimately, the church is worth loving because it belongs to Jesus, and those who love Him will join Him in building and strengthening His bride.

Senior Pastor Ken Werlein interviews students Reagan Bell and William Werlein to discuss Faithbridge's life-changing student mission program, The Road. Through personal testimony and Biblical wisdom, William and Reagan share what The Road has taught them about serving God's Kingdom and loving the people He places before us. Pastor Ken invites us all to support the 350+ students going on Road Journeys this year through prayer and financial generosity.

Founding Pastor Ken Werlein leads us through Hebrews 12:1–2, exploring the idea that following Jesus is a race that requires endurance, focus, and faithfulness. He challenges us to run with others in strong community and to throw off the sin that entangles us. He challenges us to step into the race with intention, surround ourselves with the right people, and keep moving forward with perseverance.

Founding Pastor Ken Werlein leads us through Romans 8:28, reminding us that even in the middle of grief, disappointment, anxiety, and unanswered questions, God is still working. God does not call evil “good,” but He is able to weave even the hardest parts of our lives into His greater purpose for those who love Him and are called according to His purpose. Even when we cannot see it yet, God is faithful to his children!

Bible Teacher Jared Darby leads us through Romans 8:18–27, exploring the idea that our suffering isn’t meaningless; it’s shaping us and pointing us toward a coming glory. He reminds us that pain isn’t punishment but preparation, that hope is formed in the waiting, and that even when we don’t have the words, the Spirit meets us right in our weakness. Instead of trying to control the outcome or rush past the pain, we’re invited to surrender it to God, trusting that He is present, at work, and anchoring us in a hope that’s still unfolding.

Bible Teacher Duffy Robbins continues our Anchored series in Romans 8:14–17, exploring what it means to move from spiritual slavery into sonship through the Holy Spirit. God draws near as a loving Father, inviting us to live with the confidence and intimacy of adopted children, even in the midst of suffering.

Founding Pastor Ken Werlein continues our series on Romans 8 teaching that the Christian life is impossible to live through personal effort alone, but becomes possible through surrender to the Holy Spirit's power within believers. Victory comes not from trying harder but from letting Christ's Spirit—the same power that raised Jesus from the dead—work through us in daily, moment-by-moment surrender.

Bible Teacher Steve Carter reminds us that, because of Jesus, we are not defined by our guilt, shame, or past! In the opening message of our new sermon series, Anchored, Steve takes us through Romans 8:1–4, showing us that we are invited to live from a new verdict, a new power, and a new way of life through the Holy Spirit.

Easter can become so familiar that we miss the wonder and power of Jesus, but the resurrection invites us to move from simply knowing about Him to making Him the center of our lives. Using James, Jesus’ once-skeptical brother, Founding Pastor Ken Werlein challenges us to reassess who Jesus is, call Him Lord, and trust ourselves fully to the risen Christ.

Joining us today for our final episode is Roberto Martinez. He is our Care Programs Director and is going to begin by sharing a devotional that prepares our hearts for today’s prayer walk.
