Comparison, bitterness, disappointment, and hopelessness all begin to shape us when our eyes are fixed in the wrong direction.In week two of our Imprinted series, Pastor Bobby walks through Psalm 73 and the honest struggle of feeling frustrated when life doesn’t seem fair. Through the poetry of Asaph, this message explores how comparison steals joy, how bitterness takes root, and how the presence of God is the only thing that truly restores our perspective.No matter what season you’re walking through, this sermon is a reminder that what we focus on shapes the way we see everything — and when we turn our eyes back to Jesus, temporary things stop pretending to be ultimate things.

Feeling forgotten can change the way we see everything — especially God.In this message, Pastor Bobby explores the tension of walking through difficult seasons and the reminder that God’s faithfulness is deeper than our circumstances. Unanswered prayers, disappointment, loneliness, and pain can slowly convince us that God is distant, but Isaiah 49 paints a different picture — one of a God who sees, remembers, and stays faithful to His people.Through the beauty of biblical poetry and the story of Thomas, Pastor Bobby unpacks what it looks like to trust God in uncertain seasons and hold onto His promises even when life feels heavy.

At the end of the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus brings everything down to one question: what are you building your life on?This message walks through His final words and the choice in front of all of us—to build on the rock or on the sand. Not just hearing what He says, but actually living it out.We talk about what it looks like to trust God, to let His words speak to us personally, and to live a life that actually reflects it.

What does it actually mean to follow Jesus—not just outwardly, but from the heart?In this message, we continue through the Sermon on the Mount and see how Jesus raises the standard in a way that challenges all of us. He doesn’t just address our actions—He goes deeper, exposing the motives behind them. From anger and lust to integrity and how we treat others, this isn’t about behavior modification… it’s about heart transformation.If we’re honest, His words can feel impossible. And that’s the point. Jesus is showing us that we don’t just need to try harder—we need a new heart.If He really is King, then His authority matters. This message is an invitation to stop pretending, look beneath the surface, and trust Him to do what only He can do.
