Pastor Rob continued the Selah series with Part 2, focusing on the significance of Pentecost Sunday and why we celebrate it. He also emphasized the power of praise and prayer, encouraging us to draw closer and lean in.

True holiness is revealed through generosity, compassion and surrender. During One Day To Feed The World, Pastor Kirk challenges us to loosen our grip, be moved by the needs around us and trust God to multiply what we place in His hands. Together, we believe one day of sacrifice can make an eternal impact and help bring hope to people around the world.

Pastor Rob reminded us that forgiveness isn’t a side theme of the Bible — it’s the way the Kingdom of God operates. As we walked through the process of forgiveness, we were challenged not to stop short of true healing, but to keep doing the hard work of releasing others the same way Christ has forgiven us.

Pastor Logan reminded us that obedience to God requires letting go of what He’s asked us to leave behind, trusting that what He’s preparing is greater than what we’re holding onto. He called us to stop relying on outward appearances and instead pursue a heart fully surrendered—listening for God’s voice, walking in His Spirit and trusting Him in the waiting.

Pastor Rob reminded us that God didn’t call us to blend in, but to be set apart, trusting that He is already at work in ways we can’t always see. Through the story of Saul, we’re challenged to stop chasing what everyone else wants and instead choose obedience—because Jesus is the true King who leads us with humility and grace.

Pastor Kirk walks through 1 Samuel 7, reminding us that renewal begins when we return to God with our whole heart, relying fully on Him instead of ourselves. Through the call to return, rely and remember, we’re challenged to let go of what’s been holding us back and trust that God is still our help and victory.

God is still speaking—but are we listening? In this message from 1 Samuel 3, Pastor Rob explores how to recognize the voice of God, respond with obedience and grow in a deeper, more personal relationship with Him. When we learn to say, “Speak, Lord, your servant is listening,” it can transform everything.

Pastor Rob reminded us that searching for life in this world leaves us empty—but true fulfillment is found in Christ alone. Because Jesus defeated death, we’ve been invited from death to life, into purpose, freedom and eternity with Him.

Pastor Rob reminded us that forgiveness isn’t a side theme of our faith—it is the measure of grace itself, calling us to release, send away and cancel every offense without limit. We are challenged to move from internal obedience to full restoration, allowing God to transform our hearts so that what once hurt us can ultimately become a testimony of His healing power.

Pastor Rob reminds us of our vision for the year, “Speak Lord, We’re Listening.” He shares the origin of “selah” and the importance of pausing in our lives. When we take the time to sit in God’s presence and focus on God, He shifts our perspective.
