A Different Kind of King
Apr 300:30:56Tap to summarizeThis message walks through the week leading up to Easter and reminds us that even when things don’t make sense, God is still working. “When life doesn’t go the way you want it to go… don’t run away from Him. He’s the one that can heal, redeem, and make a way.” As Jesus entered Jerusalem, people expected one kind of King, but He came to bring something even greater. “If only you knew what would really bring you peace…” This message is a reminder that real peace, purpose, and hope are found in Him alone. If this encouraged you, share it with someone who needs hope today. 🔔 Subscribe for more messages from The Ark Church. 🔗 New here?

Transcribe →The Things People Can't See
Mar 2600:36:05Tap to summarizeWhat does God actually see when He looks at your life?This message reminds us that God isn’t focused on outward appearance or what others notice, He’s looking at the heart. As Pastor Alex Roman walks through the story of David, we’re challenged to live with spiritual hunger, humility, and a willingness to give our best in every area of life. “God doesn’t see what people see. He’s looking for something deeper.” When you pursue Him with your whole heart, it will show.No matter what season you’re in, stay faithful. God sees every act of obedience, every moment of service, and every step of faith and He won’t forget it.If this encouraged you, share it with someone who needs this reminder today.🔔 Subscribe for more messages from The Ark Church.🔗 New here?

Transcribe →Special Speaker Pastor Alex Roman
Mar 1600:29:54Tap to summarizeWhat do you do when chaos enters your life?In this message, we look at how moments of chaos can shake our perspective and challenge our faith. Using the story of David in 2 Samuel 22, this sermon reminds us that chaos can “blind us and obstruct our view of God,” but our breakthrough begins when we respond the right way.Instead of ignoring the chaos or trying to fight it in our own strength, David shows us a different path. “In my distress, I called to the Lord,” and everything began to change. His story reveals that breakthrough didn’t start when the problem disappeared. It started when he humbled himself and cried out to God for help. As the message reminds us, “It was David’s humility that invited God’s power into his life.”If you are walking through a difficult season, this message is a reminder that your pain is not wasted. God can use the chaos you face to strengthen your faith, shape your character, and deepen your understanding of who He is.Share this message with someone who needs hope today.⸻🔔 Subscribe for more messages from The Ark Church.🔗 New here?

Transcribe →Special Speaker Gabe George
Mar 1000:36:52Tap to summarizeWhat is our role in sharing the gospel?This week at The Ark Church, we welcomed special speaker Pastor Gabe George as he shared a powerful message about the responsibility every believer has in evangelism. While pastors are called to preach, every follower of Jesus is called to be a witness.Looking at Luke 15 and the heart of God for the lost, this message reminds us that the salvation of people is the most important mission on earth. Just as Jesus came to seek and save the lost, we are called to live with our eyes up, ready to reflect His love to the world around us.Pastor Gabe challenges us to live out this calling in three practical ways: through our actions, our compassion, and our proclamation. Our lives should point people to Jesus, our hearts should reflect His compassion for others, and we should be ready to speak about the hope we have in Him.When we step into God’s mission, He promises His presence and power to help us reach people with the gospel.⸻🔔 Subscribe for more messages from The Ark Church.🔗 New here?

Transcribe →Winning the Spiritual Battle
Mar 300:31:00Tap to summarizeHow do you win the spiritual battle?The Bible tells us to “fight the good fight of faith” (1 Timothy 6:12). But this fight isn’t against people. It’s not against your boss, your family, or the culture around you. Scripture makes it clear that the real battle is spiritual (Ephesians 6:12) and it takes place in the mind.In this message, we unpack how the enemy works through lies and how God equips us with truth. Jesus said the devil is the father of lies (John 8:44), but God’s Word is truth (John 17:17). And when you know the truth, the truth sets you free (John 8:32).We walk through:•Where the spiritual battle actually happens•How thoughts shape feelings, actions, and habits•How to take every thought captive and make it obedient to Christ (2 Corinthians 10:5)•Why God’s purpose is to save, restore, and give you life to the full (John 10:10)•Practical ways to replace lies with Scripture and stand firm in faithYou are not fighting alone. God has given you weapons. His Word is living, active, and powerful. His mercies are new every morning. And no lie of the enemy is stronger than the truth of God.If you’ve ever struggled with thoughts like:“I’m not good enough.”“God doesn’t care about me.”“I’ve messed up too much.”This message is for you.Freedom begins when you recognize the lie, reject it, and replace it with truth.If you made a decision to follow Jesus today, we’re celebrating with you. Let someone know and keep coming back. We’d love to walk this journey with you.Share this message with someone who needs to be reminded that they can win the battle.🔔 Subscribe for more messages from The Ark Church.🔗 New here?

Transcribe →God's Heart Towards People
Feb 2400:36:39Tap to summarizeThis week, we stepped back and looked at Scripture to see what God truly thinks about us. Pastor John teaches us that it’s the kindness of God that leads people to repentance. Over and over again, we see a Savior who doesn’t condemn, but invites. A Father who doesn’t push away, but welcomes home. From the woman caught in adultery to Zacchaeus in the tree, Jesus shows us that God’s heart is for people. He wants all to be saved and to come to the knowledge of truth.If you’ve ever wondered whether God is disappointed in you or done with you, this message is a reminder: you don’t have to fix yourself first. You can come exactly as you are. His goodness changes everything.If this encouraged you, share it with someone who needs to be reminded of God’s kindness today.🔔 Subscribe for more messages from The Ark Church.🔗 New here?

Transcribe →Marriage Essentials
Feb 1900:33:25Tap to summarizeIn this message, Pastor John reminds us that “Valentine’s Day is a day, it’s not a definition,” and points us back to God’s design for relationships in Genesis 2. He unpacks what it means to leave, to be united, and to pursue hard after your spouse with affection, devotion, and energy. When priorities drift, relationships drift. But when we put God first and choose to serve one another, love grows deeper.You’ll be challenged to rethink pursuit, selfishness, and what it really means to love. As Jesus said, “The greatest among you will be your servant,” and “the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve.” Healthy marriages are not built on feelings alone but on intentional love, humility, and daily devotion.No matter where your relationship stands today, remember this promise: “In all things, God works for the good of those who love Him.” He is able to heal, restore, and breathe new life into what feels tired or broken.If this message encouraged you, consider sharing it with someone who could use hope in their relationships today.🔔 Subscribe for more messages from The Ark Church.🔗 New here?

Transcribe →Relationship Refresh
Feb 1100:33:28Tap to summarizeIn this message, Relationship Refresh, Pastor John reminds us that “God’s plan for your life is great” and challenges us to build relationships on biblical foundations. From setting boundaries up front to choosing accountability, he shares practical wisdom rooted in Scripture that applies whether you’re single, dating, or married.He unpacks the power of being equally yoked, reminds us that “love already has a definition,” and encourages us to trust that God will “see to it that everything works out for the best.” No matter your past, God is able to redeem, restore, and lead you into healthy, life-giving relationships.If this message encouraged you, consider sharing it with someone who could use a relationship refresh today.🔔 Subscribe for more messages from The Ark Church.🔗 New here?

Transcribe →Opportunity Knocks
Feb 300:34:25Tap to summarizeWhat opportunity is God putting in front of you right now?In this message, Pastor John Huseman walks verse by verse through Luke 5 and reminds us that Jesus still meets people “on their worst day, in their worst moment.” When Simon feels like a failure after fishing all night with nothing to show for it, Jesus steps into his boat and invites him deeper, saying, “Put out into deep water and let down the nets for a catch.”Simon’s response becomes the turning point of the story: “But because you say so, I will let down the nets.” And when he obeys, God does what only God can do. “They caught such a large number of fish that their nets began to break,” and the blessing was so big “they filled both boats so full that they began to sink.”This message will encourage you to trust God’s timing, take the next step He’s been putting on your heart, and believe that “every good thing comes from God.” Because when Jesus knocks, it is an invitation to more.📖 Key Scriptures:Luke 5:1–11Ephesians 2:10James 1:17Isaiah 55:8–9If this message encouraged you, consider sharing it with someone who needs faith for their next step.🔔 Subscribe for more messages from The Ark Church.🔗 New here?

Transcribe →Why am I Worrying So Much?
Feb 200:27:29Tap to summarizeWhy am I worrying so much?In this message, Pastor John Huseman walks through the words of Jesus and asks an honest question many of us are carrying. “Can any one of you, by worrying, add a single hour to your life?” Worry promises control, but it only steals peace. As Pastor John reminds us, “worry will rob you of peace 100% of the time.”Drawing from Scripture, he explains that anxiety is rooted in uncertainty, while God is always certain, faithful, and present. When our thoughts are fixed on Him, God promises “perfect peace.” This message unpacks how worry grows, how comparison and fear trouble our hearts, and how God invites us to live differently.You’ll also hear three practical, biblical ways to let peace rule your heart:•Increase your gratitude•Increase your encouragement•Increase the Word of God in your lifeAs Jesus said, “Peace I leave with you. My peace I give you.” This message will encourage you to release worry, fix your thoughts on God, and trust the One who is always with you.📖 Key Scriptures:Matthew 6:27Isaiah 26:32 Timothy 1:7Joshua 1:9John 14:27Colossians 3:15Isaiah 41:10If this message encouraged you, consider sharing it with someone who needs peace today.🔔 Subscribe for more messages from The Ark Church.🔗 New here?
