Pastor Mike launches this new sermon series by taking aim at one of the most accepted spiritual trends of our time—the kind that feels personal, flexible, and easy to control. But is it actually leading you anywhere solid? Rooted in Psalm 16, this message challenges you to consider who holds the authority in your life—and whether that’s bringing the peace and purpose you’re hoping for.

Pastor Mike is back with the annual special episode where he tackles tough questions from people like you. Hear what the Bible says about today's difficult topics.

Christmas is filled with moments of joy—family, gifts, traditions—but there’s always something that keeps it from being perfect. No matter how much you love the season, it never fully satisfies. That’s because Christmas was never meant to be the ultimate source of joy. The story of the wisemen reminds you that true joy and peace aren’t found in a holiday but in a Savior who is worthy of your worship. Discover why Jesus is everything your heart is longing for, not just at Christmas but forever.

Promises are easy to make but hard to keep. We’ve all experienced disappointment when people let us down. But what about God? Does he actually follow through on what he says? The Christmas story isn’t just a tradition; it’s proof that God keeps his promises. What about the promises he has made to you? Pastor Mike explores why Christmas can give you real confidence that God is trustworthy, even when life feels uncertain.

Mary and Joseph’s first Christmas wasn’t picture-perfect. It was confusing, costly, and filled with uncertainty. Yet instead of resisting God’s plan, they embraced it, even when it changed everything. What about you? When life doesn’t go as planned, when faith asks more of you than you expected, how do you respond? This message explores what it means to trust God, even when it’s difficult, and why his plans are always worth following.

Christmas isn’t just a heartwarming tradition—it’s history. But is it really for you? Many wonder if God’s love extends to people who feel unworthy, overlooked, or weighed down by the past. As you explore the very first page of the New Testament in this message, you’ll discover that Jesus came from a long line of nobodies and notorious sinners—proof that Christmas is for the broken, the struggling, and the searching. This season, embrace the hope that Jesus was born for you.

What if Christmas isn’t just about what we’ve made it—but about something deeper, more human, and more hopeful? In this sneak peek at the upcoming sermon series "God's Kind of Christmas," Pastor Mike and Amber explore the tension between cultural expectations and the surprising heart of the original Christmas story. They speak candidly about the honest questions many people have—especially those who wonder if any of this could actually be true. It’s a conversation that calls for belief, not just in a holiday but in a God who stepped into history for people like us.Learn more about this month's $375,000 Challenge Grant at https://bit.ly/48k2PEm.
