"Faithfullness"
1w ago00:30:43Tap to summarizeGod has always been faithful to keep His promises. Throughout Scripture, He enters into covenant with His people and remains steadfast even when they are not. Jonathan reflects that same kind of faithfulness in his covenant with David, choosing loyalty to God's purposes over his own future, his family, and even his claim to the throne. His story reminds us that true faithfulness isn't measured when keeping a promise is easy, but when it costs us something. As followers of Jesus, we're called to reflect God's unwavering faithfulness by keeping our promises with the same steadfast love He has shown us.
Transcribe →"Patience"
2w ago00:27:10Tap to summarizePatience isn't simply waiting—it's allowing God to shape us through the waiting. This week's message explores the biblical meaning of patience as being "long-tempered," encouraging us to trust God's timing rather than rushing ahead of His plans. We'll discover how waiting well means crying out to the Lord, remembering His faithfulness, responding with praise, and recognizing that God's patience reflects His desire for everyone to come to know Him.
Transcribe →"Goodness"
3w ago00:30:04Tap to summarizeThis week we're exploring the difference between being nice and being good through the lens of Micah 6:8. God calls us to do justice, love kindness, and walk humbly. Goodness isn't a performance to earn God's approval — it's the natural evidence of a life being shaped by the Holy Spirit. Discover what it really looks like to move from nice to good!
Transcribe →"Kindness"
4w ago00:26:50Tap to summarizeThis Sunday, we'll understand what kindness means from a biblical perspective. In our culture, it seems that kindness and politeness are the same idea, but as we study this fruit (our Spiritual qualities), we see a different meaning. Kindness, as we see in Galatians chapter 5, is really a spiritual quality encouraged by the Holy Spirit that relates to others with goodness, generosity, and graciousness. We'll explore the cost of kindness, our motivation, and how we can be agents of kindness to the world around us.
Transcribe →"Love"
Jul 1200:34:43Tap to summarizeThe word "love" gets used to describe everything from our favorite food to our deepest relationships, but in 1 Corinthians 13, the Apostle Paul strips away every shallow definition and reveals what love truly is in the Kingdom of God. This message dives into the richness of the biblical understanding of love — patient, selfless, enduring, and rooted not in feeling but in intentional choice — painting a picture of love that looks radically different from what our culture so often celebrates. As followers of Jesus, we will explore what it practically looks like to live out this kind of love every day, allowing the fruit of love to grow in us and flow through us into every relationship and every corner of our lives.
Transcribe →"Gentleness"
Jul 500:23:32Tap to summarizeWe live in a world that rewards volume and power. What does the counter-cultural value of gentleness look like, and how can we better express it in our lives and our speech?
Transcribe →"Peace", Galatians 5:22-23
Jun 2800:35:44Tap to summarize"The Fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control."

"Joy", Philippians 4:4-7
Jun 2100:26:09Tap to summarizeThis Sunday, we will explore how to grow the fruit of joy in our lives. Pastor and author Paul David Tripp notes, “A joyful life of grace towards others grows best in the soil of gratitude.” We bear the fruit of joy when we thank the Lord for being the “giver of immortal gladness.” He has turned mourning into dancing, shame into glory, and graves into gardens.
Transcribe →"Joy"
Jun 2100:26:09Tap to summarizeOur happiness varies according to circumstance, but deep joy remains even when life is hard. This Sunday, we'll talk about the Joy Takers and Joy Makers in our lives.
Transcribe →"Learning to Tend"
Jun 1400:29:37Tap to summarizeSpiritual growth isn't about trying harder or doing more — it's about tending your inner life so that who you are on the inside starts to show up on the outside as a real, visible reflection of God. The fruit Paul talks about isn't something you manufacture; it's something that grows when you stay close to Jesus. It's really about laying that foundation and inviting people into that kind of deeper, inside-out walk with God.
