    Joy in Hungering & Thirsting for Righteousness

    Joy comes not from indulgence but from craving what is right. The world says joy comes from satisfying every desire; Jesus says joy comes from desiring God and His ways. Longing for God's way leads to satisfaction.

    Joy in Meekness

    In a world that says you have to dominate and assert yourself and your needs, Jesus says “Blessed are the meek”. In this message, Joy In Meekness, we will see that the good life isn't found in asserting ourselves and our will, but humbly trusting in God's will and plan. Living in meekness towards others as Christ our Lord has met us with kindness, meekness, and gentleness.

    Joy in the Tears

    In a world that tells us to avoid pain, Jesus says something radical: “Blessed are those who mourn.” In this message, Joy in the Tears, we'll see that the good life isn't found in comfort or control, but in meeting God right in the middle of our sorrow. When we bring Him our grief - whether over loss, sin, or brokenness - He meets us with real comfort, healing, and hope.

    Joy on Empty

    When life drains you, joy feels impossible. But Jesus says the good life begins not in strength, but in surrender. In this message, discover why recognizing our spiritual emptiness is the first step toward fullness in God's kingdom - and how admitting our need opens the door to His power, peace, and joy.

    The Good Life: Redefined opens our series in Matthew 5:1–12 by asking a simple but life-changing question: What is the good life, really? While the world points us to possessions, success, relationships, or approval, Jesus announces a radically different reality—blessed are the poor in spirit, the mourners, the meek. This message unpacks how true joy begins not in having it all together, but in depending on Him

    This final message in our James series, Speak (James 5:19–20), reminds us that following Jesus means opening our mouths to share the Gospel—the best news in the world. James calls us to lovingly restore those who have wandered and boldly proclaim Jesus to those who don't yet know Him. Life is short, eternity is real, and revival begins when ordinary people are unashamed to speak about Jesus.

    The God Who Heals

    We're reminded that God is not distant from our weakness but draws near as Yahweh Ropheka — the Lord our Healer. James shows us that prayer is powerful, not just for physical sickness but for the whole person: body, mind, and soul. Sometimes God heals immediately, sometimes He allows weakness to remain, but His promise is certain — He will raise us up. This message calls us to bring our struggles into the light, seek prayer, and trust the God who saves, forgives, and restores.

    In this passage, James echoes Jesus' words: “Let your yes be yes and your no be no.” Our speech isn't just about honesty—it reveals the state of our hearts. When we're double-minded, trying to serve God and something else, life feels unstable and empty. But when we return to our first love and give Jesus our whole devotion, our words gain weight, our faith gains focus, and our lives reflect His truth.

    Tired of waiting? James 5:7–11 reminds us that waiting on the Lord is never wasted—He is working even when we can't see it. Through the examples of the prophets, Job, and Abraham, we see that God's promises never fail because they rest on His faithfulness, not ours. Waiting on the Lord is not passive—it's trusting, seeking, and holding fast to His Word. And as we wait, He renews our strength and proves again that every promise finds its “Yes” in Jesus.

    In a world that constantly pushes us to take control of our plans, our schedules, our relationships, James 4:13–16 reminds us of a better way. In this message, Pastor Nate confronts the illusion of control and the anxiety it produces. Through Scripture, and story, we're invited to release our grip, open our hands, and trust the God whose plans are higher, wiser, and rooted in love. When we surrender what we cannot control, we make room for the peace, purpose, and power God longs to give us—because open hands receive what closed fists never will.
