Doubt, fear, anxiety, and discouragement don't have to take us out. When we walk closely with God and stand firm in faith, we protect our hearts and remain strong. And when we stand together as the body of Christ, united in faith, we don't just survive the battle, we advance.#GoodHopeChurch #Faith #ShieldOfFaith #ArmorOfGod #SpiritualBattle #JesusChangesEverything #FaithInAction #ChurchOnline #HopeInJesusSermon Notes: https://link.goodhope.ag/armor-4Giving Information: https://goodhope.ag/givingSTAY CONNECTEDYoutube: https://youtube.com/GoodHopeChurchInstagram: http://instagram.com/goodhopemnFacebook: http://fb.com/goodhopemn

In this message, Pastor Mike Stevens continues the series The Full Armor of God by focusing on the Boots of Readiness from Ephesians 6. After recalling the Belt of Truth and the Breastplate of Righteousness, he explains that readiness means living with a heart prepared to respond whenever God calls. A believer who has their “boots on” is actively walking with God through prayer, Scripture, obedience, and participation in the life of the church so they are ready for the opportunities God places before them.Pastor Mike shares how this readiness shaped his own journey into ministry and how ordinary faithfulness often leads to extraordinary calling. He also highlights biblical examples like the rich young ruler and Peter, showing that people can be motivated yet still not truly ready to surrender everything to Jesus. True readiness sometimes means giving up good things for God's greater purpose. When believers live prepared to obey, serve, worship, and love others, the enemy loses his ability to disrupt God's plan. The challenge is simple but powerful: put on the Boots of Readiness and be ready when God calls.#FullArmorOfGod #BootsOfReadiness #PastorMikeStevens #GoodHopeChurch #FaithInAction #BeReady #ChristianLiving #SpiritualGrowth #Ephesians6 #JesusChangesEverythingSermon Notes: https://link.goodhope.ag/armor-3Giving Information: https://goodhope.ag/givingSTAY CONNECTEDYoutube: https://youtube.com/GoodHopeChurchInstagram: http://instagram.com/goodhopemnFacebook: http://fb.com/goodhopemn

In this message, Pastor Daniel Stevens continues the Full Armor of God series by exploring what it means to wear the Boots of Readiness described in Ephesians 6. After reviewing the Belt of Truth and the Breastplate of Righteousness, he emphasizes that readiness is about living a daily walk with God so that when the Holy Spirit prompts you to act, you are prepared to respond. A life of prayer, Scripture, and faithful service keeps believers spiritually prepared for the moments God places in front of them.Pastor Daniel also points to examples in Scripture that show how readiness involves surrender. The rich young ruler wanted eternal life but was not willing to release what held his heart, while Peter was ready for a fight but not ready for Jesus' path to the cross. True readiness means being willing to prioritize Jesus above everything else. When believers live with that kind of obedience and expectation, they position themselves to experience the life and purpose God has prepared for them.#FullArmorOfGod #BootsOfReadiness #PastorDanielStevens #GoodHopeChurch #FaithInAction #BeReady #SpiritualGrowth #ChristianLife #Ephesians6 #FollowJesusSermon Notes: https://link.goodhope.ag/armor-3-dsGiving Information: https://goodhope.ag/givingSTAY CONNECTEDYoutube: https://youtube.com/GoodHopeChurchInstagram: http://instagram.com/goodhopemnFacebook: http://fb.com/goodhopemn 

In this sermon, Pastor Mike Jurek continues the Full Armor of God series by teaching about the Boots of Readiness found in Ephesians 6. Building on the Belt of Truth and the Breastplate of Righteousness, he explains that readiness means living in constant expectation that God will lead you into opportunities to serve, love, and share your faith. When believers stay connected to God through prayer, Scripture, and obedience, they remain spiritually prepared for those moments.Pastor Mike also reminds listeners that readiness requires surrender. Many people want the blessings of following Jesus but hesitate when obedience requires sacrifice or change. Through biblical examples and personal reflection, he challenges believers to live with their “boots on,” ready to act when God calls. When a church lives in that kind of readiness, it becomes unstoppable in fulfilling God's mission.#FullArmorOfGod #BootsOfReadiness #PastorMikeJurek #GoodHopeChurch #FaithInAction #ReadyForGod #ChristianGrowth #Ephesians6 #WalkInFaith #JesusChangesEverythingSermon Notes: https://link.goodhope.ag/armor-3-mjGiving Information: https://goodhope.ag/givingSTAY CONNECTEDYoutube: https://youtube.com/GoodHopeChurchInstagram: http://instagram.com/goodhopemnFacebook: http://fb.com/goodhopemn 

In this message, The Full Armor of God: The Breastplate of Righteousness, Pastor Mike Stevens continues exploring Ephesians 6 and what it means to truly put on the armor of God. He reminds us that righteousness isn't just about avoiding wrong choices, but about actively choosing what is right. The breastplate of righteousness protects our hearts when we commit to doing the right thing the first time, even when no one is watching.Pastor Mike Stevens challenges believers to reject excuses and embrace a life of truth and obedience to God. When we twist the truth or justify wrongdoing, we leave ourselves spiritually vulnerable. But when we love God, follow His ways, and rely on the Holy Spirit, we grow stronger in faith day by day. God is patient and forgiving, and He calls us to keep growing, learning, and responding to His voice by doing the good we know we should do.#GoodHopeChurch #ArmorOfGod #BreastplateOfRighteousness #FaithInAction #ChristianGrowth #TruthAndRighteousness #JesusChangesEverythingSermon Notes: https://link.goodhope.ag/armor-2Giving Information: https://goodhope.ag/givingSTAY CONNECTEDYoutube: https://youtube.com/GoodHopeChurchInstagram: http://instagram.com/goodhopemnFacebook: http://fb.com/goodhopemn

In The Full Armor of God: The Breastplate of Righteousness, Pastor Daniel Stevens continues the teaching from Ephesians 6 by focusing on the importance of living righteously before God. The breastplate of righteousness guards our hearts when we commit to doing what is right, not just when others are watching, but in the quiet moments when our character is truly tested.Pastor Daniel Stevens encourages believers to stop making excuses and instead pursue a life shaped by truth and obedience to God. When we rely on the Holy Spirit and choose righteousness, we protect ourselves from the lies and temptations that try to pull us away from God's will. As we grow in spiritual maturity, we learn to recognize what builds us up and what harms our walk with Christ, choosing daily to honor the Lord.#GoodHopeChurch #ArmorOfGod #BreastplateOfRighteousness #FaithInAction #ChristianLiving #SpiritualGrowth #JesusChangesEverythingSermon Notes: https://link.goodhope.ag/armor-2-dsGiving Information: https://goodhope.ag/givingSTAY CONNECTEDYoutube: https://youtube.com/GoodHopeChurchInstagram: http://instagram.com/goodhopemnFacebook: http://fb.com/goodhopemn 

In this message on The Full Armor of God: The Breastplate of Righteousness, Pastor Mike Jurek teaches from Ephesians 6 about guarding our hearts through righteous living. The breastplate of righteousness represents a life committed to doing what is right before God. It's not only about avoiding sin but about actively choosing obedience and integrity in everyday decisions.Pastor Mike Jurek reminds us that making excuses or ignoring conviction leaves us spiritually exposed. But when we seek the Lord, love His ways, and follow the leading of the Holy Spirit, we grow stronger in faith and clarity. God calls us to keep learning, keep growing, and respond to His voice by doing the good we know to do, even when no one else sees.#GoodHopeChurch #ArmorOfGod #BreastplateOfRighteousness #FaithInAction #ChristianLeadership #WalkWithChrist #JesusChangesEverythingSermon Notes: https://link.goodhope.ag/armor-2-mjGiving Information: https://goodhope.ag/givingSTAY CONNECTEDYoutube: https://youtube.com/GoodHopeChurchInstagram: http://instagram.com/goodhopemnFacebook: http://fb.com/goodhopemn 

In this message, Pastor Mike Stevens begins a new series on The Full Armor of God from Ephesians 6:10–20, focusing on the first piece of armor: the Belt of Truth. Scripture reminds us that we are in a spiritual battle, but God has provided protection so we can stand firm. Pastor Mike explains that “putting on” the armor of God is not just something we say or pray about, but something we live out daily through obedience and transformation in Christ. When we truly live out God's truth, we are able to stand against the schemes of the enemy.The Belt of Truth represents living a life rooted in honesty, integrity, and God's Word. In a culture filled with half-truths, deception, and confusion, believers are called to love the truth, believe the truth, and walk in the truth. When we fail to do this, the enemy's “flaming arrows” often come in the form of lies we begin to believe about ourselves, others, or even God. Pastor Mike challenges us to identify and reject those lies and instead embrace the truth that Jesus loves us and has a purpose for our lives. As we put on the Belt of Truth, we begin to build a strong foundation for the rest of the armor God gives us to stand firm in the battle.#GoodHopeChurch #FullArmorOfGod #BeltOfTruth #SpiritualBattle #StandFirm #FaithInAction #JesusChangesEverything #TruthInChrist Sermon Notes: https://link.goodhope.ag/armor-1Giving Information: https://goodhope.ag/givingSTAY CONNECTEDYoutube: https://youtube.com/GoodHopeChurchInstagram: http://instagram.com/goodhopemnFacebook: http://fb.com/goodhopemn

In this teaching, Pastor Daniel Stevens launches a new series on The Full Armor of God from Ephesians 6:10–20, beginning with the Belt of Truth. The Bible makes it clear that believers face a real spiritual battle, but God has equipped us with the armor we need to stand strong. Pastor Daniel emphasizes that putting on the armor of God is not simply a symbolic act or a prayer we repeat. It means actively living in the new life Christ has given us and allowing His truth to shape our daily choices.The Belt of Truth calls believers to become people who believe, speak, and live according to God's truth. In a world full of distorted truth and deception, followers of Christ must remain grounded in what God says. When we fail to walk in truth, the enemy's lies can take root in our hearts and minds. Pastor Daniel encourages us to recognize those lies, reject them, and instead hold firmly to the truth of God's Word. When we live in truth, we gain stability and strength to stand against the enemy's schemes.#GoodHopeChurch #FullArmorOfGod #BeltOfTruth #SpiritualBattle #StandFirm #FaithInAction #TruthMatters #JesusChangesEverything Sermon Notes: https://link.goodhope.ag/armor-1-dsGiving Information: https://goodhope.ag/givingSTAY CONNECTEDYoutube: https://youtube.com/GoodHopeChurchInstagram: http://instagram.com/goodhopemnFacebook: http://fb.com/goodhopemn

Scripture teaches that believers are engaged in a spiritual battle, but God has not left us defenseless. Pastor Mike explains that putting on the armor of God goes beyond words. It means living out the transformation God has done in us and allowing His truth to guide every part of our lives.The Belt of Truth reminds us that our spiritual stability begins with truth. When we believe and walk in God's truth, we are able to resist the enemy's lies and stand firm during difficult times. However, when we allow twisted truth or deception to influence our thinking, it opens the door for the enemy's attacks. Pastor Mike encourages believers to examine their hearts, reject the lies they may be holding onto, and embrace the life-giving truth of Jesus. As we do, we grow stronger and more equipped to live faithfully in the spiritual battle.#GoodHopeChurch #FullArmorOfGod #BeltOfTruth #SpiritualBattle #StandFirm #FaithInAction #WalkInTruth #JesusChangesEverythingSermon Notes: https://link.goodhope.ag/armor-1-mjGiving Information: https://goodhope.ag/givingSTAY CONNECTEDYoutube: https://youtube.com/GoodHopeChurchInstagram: http://instagram.com/goodhopemnFacebook: http://fb.com/goodhopemn 

On Resurrection Sunday, Pastor Mike Stevens reminds us that the empty tomb is the greatest moment in history. Jesus did not simply die on the cross. He rose again, conquering sin and death and offering eternal life to anyone who believes. Because of His sacrifice, we are invited into a restored relationship with God through faith. The message “Wake Up, Sleeper” challenges us to awaken our faith and recognize the incredible promise found in Christ.Pastor Mike Stevens points to the words of Ephesians 5:14 and calls believers to step onto the narrow road that Jesus described. Following Christ means fixing our eyes on Him, throwing off the sin and distractions that slow us down, and running the race marked out for us with perseverance. God has a purpose for every life, and through His help we are destined to overcome. Resurrection Sunday is a call to stop delaying faith, fully trust in Jesus, and live the life He created us to live.#ResurrectionSunday #HeIsRisen #WakeUpSleeper #FaithInJesus #GoodHopeChurch #RunTheRace #NarrowRoad #EasterMessageSermon Notes: https://link.goodhope.ag/easter-2026Giving Information: https://goodhope.ag/givingSTAY CONNECTEDYoutube: https://youtube.com/GoodHopeChurchInstagram: http://instagram.com/goodhopemnFacebook: http://fb.com/goodhopemn

Through the cross, Jesus became the perfect sacrifice so that we could be brought back into God's grace. This message invites listeners to wake up spiritually and embrace the life Christ offers.Pastor Daniel Stevens challenges believers to respond to that truth by following Jesus wholeheartedly. Scripture calls us to take the narrow path, lay aside the sins and distractions that hold us back, and run the race God has set before us. When we fix our eyes on Jesus and trust Him daily, we step into the destiny God prepared for us. With His strength, we can overcome life's hardships and live faithfully for Him.#ResurrectionSunday #HeIsRisen #WakeUpSleeper #FaithInJesus #GoodHopeChurch #RunTheRace #FollowJesus #EasterHopeSermon Notes: https://link.goodhope.ag/easter-2026-dsGiving Information: https://goodhope.ag/givingSTAY CONNECTEDYoutube: https://youtube.com/GoodHopeChurchInstagram: http://instagram.com/goodhopemnFacebook: http://fb.com/goodhopemn

In Part 7 of We Walk by Faith, Pastor Mike Stevens challenges us to “fight the good fight of the faith.” Drawing from Paul's encouragement to Timothy, we're reminded that faith isn't passive. It requires action, courage, and a willingness to trust God even when fear is loud. Just like Timothy, we may feel called but not confident, yet God invites us to step forward anyway and contend for what truly matters.Looking at the Israelites on the edge of the Promised Land, we see a powerful contrast between walking by faith and walking by sight. While Caleb and Joshua trusted God's promise, others gave in to fear and missed out on what God had prepared. The message is clear for us today: we are not meant to sit on the sidelines. God has called each of us to step up, trust Him fully, and take the shot. Faith means engaging the fight, speaking truth, and living boldly in what God has called us to do.#GoodHopeChurch #Faith #WeWalkByFaith #FightTheGoodFight #TrustGod #LiveByFaith #Courage #JesusChangesEverythingSermon Notes: https://link.goodhope.ag/faith-7Giving Information: https://goodhope.ag/givingSTAY CONNECTEDYoutube: https://youtube.com/GoodHopeChurchInstagram: http://instagram.com/goodhopemnFacebook: http://fb.com/goodhopemn

In Part 7 of We Walk by Faith, Pastor Celia Gauthier encourages us to actively “fight the good fight of the faith.” Through Paul's words to Timothy, we see that faith is something we must pursue with intention. Even when we feel unsure or inadequate, God still calls us forward, reminding us that confidence comes from Him, not from ourselves.The story of the Israelites at the Promised Land highlights the difference between fear and faith. Caleb and Joshua chose to believe God's promise, while others focused on obstacles and backed away. That same tension exists in our lives today. We're not called to observe from a distance, but to step into what God is asking of us. When we trust Him, speak faith, and move forward despite fear, we begin to live out the purpose He's placed on our lives.#GoodHopeChurch #FaithInAction #WeWalkByFaith #TrustOverFear #BoldFaith #ChristianLiving #JesusChangesEverythingSermon Notes: https://link.goodhope.ag/faith-7-cgGiving Information: https://goodhope.ag/givingSTAY CONNECTEDYoutube: https://youtube.com/GoodHopeChurchInstagram: http://instagram.com/goodhopemnFacebook: http://fb.com/goodhopemn 

In Part 7 of We Walk by Faith, Pastor Mike Jurek reminds us that following Jesus means stepping into the fight of faith. Paul's encouragement to Timothy shows us that even when confidence is lacking, calling still remains. Faith requires us to move forward, trust God's voice, and engage with what He's placed in front of us.Through the example of the Israelites, we see how easily fear can hold us back from God's promises. Caleb and Joshua stood firm in faith, while others allowed doubt to take over. That same choice is in front of us today. Will we shrink back, or will we step up? God has called each of us to shine, to trust Him, and to take action. It's time to stop holding back and start living out the faith we've been given.#GoodHopeChurch #WalkByFaith #FaithOverFear #TakeTheShot #CalledByGod #LiveBoldly #JesusChangesEverythingSermon Notes: https://link.goodhope.ag/faith-7-mjGiving Information: https://goodhope.ag/givingSTAY CONNECTEDYoutube: https://youtube.com/GoodHopeChurchInstagram: http://instagram.com/goodhopemnFacebook: http://fb.com/goodhopemn 

In this message from the We Walk by Faith series, Pastor Mike Stevens shares “Eyes of Faith,” a reminder that faith is required not only before a miracle but also afterward. We often pray and believe God will work, but when the answer comes, it can be surprisingly easy to dismiss it as coincidence. Recognizing when God has answered prayer is a vital part of growing in faith.Pastor Mike Stevens highlights how God frequently works through ordinary moments rather than spectacular displays. Throughout Scripture we see that God often moves in subtle ways, speaking quietly and guiding through everyday decisions. When life becomes rushed and noisy, those moments can pass by unnoticed. Learning to slow down and pay attention helps us see the divine at work in places we might otherwise overlook.#GoodHopeChurch #Faith #WalkByFaith #EyesOfFaith #TrustGod #JesusChangesEverything #FaithJourneySermon Notes: https://link.goodhope.ag/faith-6-msGiving Information: https://goodhope.ag/givingSTAY CONNECTEDYoutube: https://youtube.com/GoodHopeChurchInstagram: http://instagram.com/goodhopemnFacebook: http://fb.com/goodhopemn 

In this message, Pastor Daniel Stevens continues the We Walk by Faith series with “Eyes of Faith,” reminding us that faith is needed both before and after a miracle. We need faith before the miracle to believe God can move, but we also need faith afterward to recognize that He actually did. Sometimes we are tempted to explain answered prayers away as coincidence, but learning to recognize when God has moved is an important part of growing spiritually.Pastor Daniel Stevens also teaches that many of God's greatest moments happen in ordinary circumstances. From Abram's journey to the quiet moments when God speaks, Scripture shows that the divine is often found in subtle ways rather than dramatic ones. When life is constantly busy, it becomes easy to miss what God is doing. Slowing down, paying attention, and keeping our eyes open allows us to notice the sacred moments God places right in the middle of everyday life.#GoodHopeChurch #Faith #WalkByFaith #EyesOfFaith #SpiritualGrowth #JesusChangesEverything #FaithInActionSermon Notes: https://link.goodhope.ag/faith-6Giving Information: https://goodhope.ag/givingSTAY CONNECTEDYoutube: https://youtube.com/GoodHopeChurchInstagram: http://instagram.com/goodhopemnFacebook: http://fb.com/goodhopemn

In this message, Pastor Mike Jurek continues the We Walk by Faith series with a teaching called “Eyes of Faith.” He explains that faith is needed both before and after a miracle. We need faith to believe God will answer our prayers, but we also need faith to recognize when He has already done it. Too often we explain away God's work as coincidence instead of acknowledging His hand in our lives.Pastor Mike Jurek reminds us that many divine moments happen in the middle of ordinary life. The Bible shows that God often speaks and moves in quiet and subtle ways rather than dramatic ones. When our lives are too fast and too full, we may miss those moments. By slowing down and becoming more aware of what God is doing, we can begin to see His presence in everyday situations.#GoodHopeChurch #Faith #WalkByFaith #EyesOfFaith #ChristianLiving #JesusChangesEverything #GrowInFaithSermon Notes: https://link.goodhope.ag/faith-6-mjGiving Information: https://goodhope.ag/givingSTAY CONNECTEDYoutube: https://youtube.com/GoodHopeChurchInstagram: http://instagram.com/goodhopemnFacebook: http://fb.com/goodhopemn 

In “We Walk by Faith // Part 5: Words of Faith,” Pastor Mike Stevens shares how faith grows when believers not only trust what God has spoken but also declare it with their words. The Christian life begins with faith and continues the same way. As we hear God's promises in Scripture, we are called to believe them in our hearts and speak them with confidence, rather than allowing our circumstances to shape what we say.Pastor Mike Stevens reminds us that our words carry great power. Scripture teaches that the tongue can guide the direction of our lives, which means what we speak can either strengthen faith or weaken it. By guarding our hearts and choosing words that agree with God's promises, we position ourselves to live by faith and encourage those around us to do the same. #GoodHopeChurch #FaithForToday #WalkByFaith #SpeakFaith #HopeInChrist #JesusChangesEverythingSermon Notes: https://link.goodhope.ag/faith-5-msGiving Information: https://goodhope.ag/givingSTAY CONNECTEDYoutube: https://youtube.com/GoodHopeChurchInstagram: http://instagram.com/goodhopemnFacebook: http://fb.com/goodhopemn 

In this message, “We Walk by Faith // Part 5: Words of Faith,” Pastor Daniel Stevens teaches that faith is not only about believing what God has said, but also about speaking in alignment with that belief. Scripture shows that faith begins in the heart and is expressed through our words. When we believe God's promises, our speech should reflect that trust rather than what we see or feel in the moment. Speaking faith is a skill believers grow in as they learn to declare God's truth instead of giving in to doubt or discouragement.Pastor Daniel Stevens explains that our words have real influence over our lives and even our spiritual direction. Just as the tongue can steer a ship, the words we speak can steer our hearts toward faith or toward fear. When we guard our hearts, speak life, and declare what God has promised, we strengthen our faith and encourage others around us. Believers are called to speak words that build faith, call up hope, and align with the truth of God's Word. #GoodHopeChurch #Faith #WalkByFaith #WordsOfFaith #SpeakLife #FaithInAction #JesusChangesEverythingSermon Notes: https://link.goodhope.ag/faith-5Giving Information: https://goodhope.ag/givingSTAY CONNECTEDYoutube: https://youtube.com/GoodHopeChurchInstagram: http://instagram.com/goodhopemnFacebook: http://fb.com/goodhopemn

In this message from the We Walk by Faith series, Pastor Mike Jurek focuses on the importance of speaking words that align with faith. Faith begins with believing what God has said, but it is also expressed through the words we speak. When believers allow their speech to reflect God's promises instead of their fears, they begin to strengthen the faith that is already in their hearts.Pastor Mike Jurek encourages believers to guard their hearts and pay attention to the direction their words are taking them. Just as a small rudder steers a ship, our words can guide our lives toward faith or toward doubt. By speaking life, declaring God's truth, and holding onto His promises, we grow stronger in faith and help point others toward hope in Christ. #GoodHopeChurch #FaithInAction #SpeakLife #WalkByFaith #BibleTeaching #JesusChangesEverythingSermon Notes: https://link.goodhope.ag/faith-5-mjGiving Information: https://goodhope.ag/givingSTAY CONNECTEDYoutube: https://youtube.com/GoodHopeChurchInstagram: http://instagram.com/goodhopemnFacebook: http://fb.com/goodhopemn 

In Part 4 of the We Walk by Faith series, Pastor Mike Stevens teaches that faith is something that grows stronger over time. Like a muscle, faith develops through use. The Christian life begins with believing what God has spoken, and it continues the same way. When we choose to trust God's promises instead of relying only on what we can see, our faith begins to deepen and mature.Pastor Mike Stevens highlights several ways faith is strengthened. Hope stretches our faith beyond what we currently see. Believing the truth of Scripture builds spiritual confidence. Taking action on what God says allows faith to move from belief into practice. Even trials and suffering can become powerful training that produces perseverance and hope. By feeding our faith through God's Word, prayer, and spiritual discipline, we can be ready when difficult seasons come.#GoodHopeChurch #Faith #WalkByFaith #TrustGod #SpiritualGrowth #HopeInChrist #FaithJourneySermon Notes: https://link.goodhope.ag/faith-4-msGiving Information: https://goodhope.ag/givingSTAY CONNECTEDYoutube: https://youtube.com/GoodHopeChurchInstagram: http://instagram.com/goodhopemnFacebook: http://fb.com/goodhopemn 

In Part 4 of the series We Walk by Faith, Pastor Daniel Stevens reminds us that faith is not just something we possess, it is something we develop. Just like a muscle, faith grows stronger when it is exercised. Scripture teaches that we walk by faith and not by sight, and that faith begins by believing what God has spoken. When we choose to trust God's promises even when we cannot see the outcome, we begin strengthening our faith.Pastor Daniel Stevens explains that faith grows through several spiritual practices. Confidence in what we hope for stretches our faith. Believing the truths we read in Scripture builds it. Acting on what God tells us moves faith from theory into practice. Even seasons of suffering can become spiritual training that produces perseverance and hope.

In Part 4 of the message series We Walk by Faith, Pastor Mike Jurek shares that faith grows the same way muscles do, through consistent exercise.

In Part 3 of We Walk by Faith, Pastor Mike Stevens brings us back to a foundational truth: What has God actually said? Faith is not wishful thinking. It is standing on the Word of God. Pastor Mike walks through powerful promises about provision, freedom from temptation, joy and peace, healing, spiritual victory, and God working through difficulty. Each promise reveals a partnership. We seek His Kingdom. We submit to God and resist the devil. We pray and humble ourselves. Then God does what only He can do.Through personal stories and Scripture, Pastor Mike Stevens encourages us to believe God at His Word even when circumstances say otherwise. Trouble may come, but so does peace and overcoming power. God's promises are alive and active. When He speaks, it is settled.

In Part 3 of We Walk by Faith, Pastor Daniel Stevens challenges us with one powerful question: What did God say? If faith begins by believing what we heard, then it continues by standing firmly on what God has spoken in His Word. From provision in Matthew 6 to freedom in Christ, from peace in the Holy Spirit to strength in spiritual battles, Pastor Daniel reminds us that God's promises come with both His part and ours. We seek first His Kingdom. We submit and resist. We humble ourselves and pray. And He moves.This message walks through practical, real life faith for provision, freedom from temptation, mental health, healing, our nation, and even enduring hardship. God does not waste pain. He works all things for good. When He speaks, His Word is not empty. It accomplishes what He desires. Pastor Daniel Stevens calls us to live with bold confidence in every promise of God because if He said it, it is done.#WeWalkByFaith #FaithOverFear #GoodHopeChurch #TrustGod #KingdomLiving #FreedomInChrist #GodsPromises #StandFirm #FaithInActionSermon Notes: https://link.goodhope.ag/faith-3Giving Information: https://goodhope.ag/givingSTAY CONNECTEDYoutube: https://youtube.com/GoodHopeChurchInstagram: http://instagram.com/goodhopemnFacebook: http://fb.com/goodhopemn

In Part 2 of “We Walk by Faith,” Pastor Mike Jurek brings us back to a simple but life changing truth: the Christian life begins and continues by faith. We are not saved by performance, and we do not mature by sight. We grow by believing what God has spoken. From forgiveness to personal transformation, from marriage to freedom, faith is the pathway forward.Pastor Mike Jurek highlights how God often speaks identity and promises over us before we ever see them come to pass. Just as Abraham received a new name before the promise was visible, we are called to trust God's voice in the unseen places of our lives. Healing, breakthrough, and growth require courage to believe. Take time to ask the Lord where He is calling you to walk by faith, and choose to trust Him there.#GoodHopeChurch #WeWalkByFaith #LiveByFaith #FaithOverSight #SpiritualGrowth #BelieveGod #ChristianLife #JesusChangesEverythingSermon Notes: https://link.goodhope.ag/faith-2-mjGiving Information: https://goodhope.ag/givingSTAY CONNECTEDYoutube: https://youtube.com/GoodHopeChurchInstagram: http://instagram.com/goodhopemnFacebook: http://fb.com/goodhopemn 

In “We Walk by Faith – Part 2,” Pastor Daniel Stevens invites us to reflect on the foundation of our spiritual life. Salvation does not come through effort or rule keeping. It begins by believing the message of Christ. If our relationship with God starts by faith, then every next step forward must also be taken by faith. Hearing God's Word is powerful, but transformation happens when we truly believe it.Pastor Daniel Stevens points to the disciples asking for more faith and reminds us that even small faith can produce big results. Yet we are not meant to stay small. God calls us into new identities, new levels of obedience, and new trust long before we see visible evidence. Whether you are believing for healing, growth, freedom, or restoration, the invitation is clear: trust what God has said and walk it out. What is God speaking to you today?#GoodHopeChurch #WeWalkByFaith #FaithInAction #TrustTheWord #ChristianGrowth #FaithForward #HopeInChrist #JesusChangesEverythingSermon Notes: https://link.goodhope.ag/faith-2Giving Information: https://goodhope.ag/givingSTAY CONNECTEDYoutube: https://youtube.com/GoodHopeChurchInstagram: http://instagram.com/goodhopemnFacebook: http://fb.com/goodhopemn 

In Part 2 of “We Walk by Faith,” Pastor Mike Newcomb challenges us to examine how we are truly living. Are we walking by faith or by sight? Our relationship with God begins by believing what we heard, not by earning it or striving through works. Faith is not just how we start our journey with Christ, it is how we continue it every single day. From salvation to forgiveness to personal growth, everything in the Christian life flows from believing God's Word.Pastor Mike Newcomb reminds us that even mustard seed faith can accomplish incredible things, but we are called to grow beyond that. Faith shapes our identity, just as Abram became Abraham by believing what God declared over him before he ever saw it fulfilled. Whether it is healing, freedom, restoration in marriage, or breakthrough in finances, the call is the same: believe Him when He speaks. Where is God asking you to walk by faith right now?#GoodHopeChurch #WeWalkByFaith #FaithJourney #TrustGod #ChristianLiving #FaithOverFear #GrowInFaith #JesusChangesEverythingGiving Information: https://goodhope.ag/givingSTAY CONNECTEDYoutube: https://youtube.com/GoodHopeChurchInstagram: http://instagram.com/goodhopemnFacebook: http://fb.com/goodhopemn 

In this message, Pastor Mike Stevens launches the new series We Walk by Faith, grounded in 2 Corinthians 5:7, reminding us that there are two ways to live: by sight or by faith. Faith means trusting in what we cannot yet see, especially the promise of eternal life and the assurance that to be absent from the body is to be at home with the Lord. Drawing from Hebrews 11, he explains that faith is confidence in the unseen and belief that God both exists and rewards those who seek Him. Faith always has an object, and for believers, that object is God Himself.Pastor Mike Stevens also unpacks Ephesians 2:8–10, showing that salvation is a gift of grace received through faith. Like a present waiting to be opened, the gift of salvation must be received. But we are not only saved from something, we are saved for something. We are God's workmanship, created with purpose and prepared for good works in advance. When we live by faith, we step into both salvation and calling, trusting God to make us new so we can live out His vision to Reach Up, Rise Up, and Reach Out.#WeWalkByFaith #FaithInGod #SavedByGrace #PurposeDrivenLife #Ephesians2 #2Corinthians5 #GoodHopeChurch #PastorMikeStevens #JesusChangesEverythingSermon Notes: https://link.goodhope.ag/faith-1Giving Information: https://goodhope.ag/givingSTAY CONNECTEDYoutube: https://youtube.com/GoodHopeChurchInstagram: http://instagram.com/goodhopemnFacebook: http://fb.com/goodhopemn 

In this message, Pastor Daniel Stevens begins the series We Walk by Faith by challenging us to consider how we are living: by what we see or by what we believe. Centered on 2 Corinthians 5:7, he reminds us that faith gives us confidence in the promise of eternal life and the hope of being with the Lord. Through Hebrews 11, Pastor Daniel Stevens highlights that faith is assurance in what we cannot see and trust that God rewards those who seek Him wholeheartedly.Looking at Ephesians 2:8–10, Pastor Daniel Stevens emphasizes that salvation is a gift of grace, freely given and received by faith. Like a gift waiting to be accepted, it becomes ours when we believe. Yet salvation is only the beginning. We are God's handiwork, created with intention and purpose. God has already prepared meaningful works for us to walk in. Living by faith means embracing both the gift of salvation and the calling God has placed on our lives.#WeWalkByFaith #FaithJourney #GraceAndTruth #PurposeInChrist #GoodHopeChurch #PastorDanielStevens #LiveByFaith #JesusSavesSermon Notes: https://link.goodhope.ag/faith-1-dsGiving Information: https://goodhope.ag/givingSTAY CONNECTEDYoutube: https://youtube.com/GoodHopeChurchInstagram: http://instagram.com/goodhopemnFacebook: http://fb.com/goodhopemn 

Pastor Mike Jurek opens the series We Walk by Faith by pointing us to 2 Corinthians 5:7 and the powerful truth that believers are called to live by faith, not by sight. Faith anchors us in the unseen reality of eternity and gives us confidence that God's promises are true. Reflecting on Hebrews 11, Pastor Mike Jurek explains that faith means trusting in who God is and believing that He rewards those who earnestly seek Him.Turning to Ephesians 2:8–10, Pastor Mike Jurek reminds us that salvation is a gracious gift that must be received through faith. It is not earned, but it must be embraced. Beyond salvation, we are created intentionally by God for good works prepared in advance. Living by faith moves us from simply believing to actively stepping into the purpose God has designed for us, trusting Him to renew us and lead us forward.#WeWalkByFaith #FaithOverFear #GraceAlone #CalledWithPurpose #GoodHopeChurch #PastorMikeJurek #WalkByFaith #ReachUpRiseUpReachOutSermon Notes: https://link.goodhope.ag/faith-1-mjGiving Information: https://goodhope.ag/givingSTAY CONNECTEDYoutube: https://youtube.com/GoodHopeChurchInstagram: http://instagram.com/goodhopemnFacebook: http://fb.com/goodhopemn 

In this message, Pastor Mike Stevens shares two biblical keys that shape healthy relationships: love and respect. Drawing from Scripture, he reminds us that these principles are not limited to marriage or dating but apply to every relationship we have. Jesus calls us to love others sacrificially and to honor one another with genuine respect, even when it goes against our natural instincts. When love and respect are practiced consistently, they have the power to transform families, friendships, and communities.Pastor Mike Stevens also explores how love and respect function within marriage, emphasizing that both are needed by both people, but often in different ways. Husbands are called to love like Christ loves, and wives are called to show honor and respect, all within a framework of mutual submission to God. When relationships are strained, the answer is not less love or respect, but more. Ultimately, this teaching points us back to our relationship with Jesus as both Lord and Savior, calling us to trust Him fully and live out His example.#LoveAndRespect #Relationships #Marriage #FaithInAction #BiblicalTruth #ChristianLiving #JesusAtTheCenter #GoodHopeChurchSermon Notes: https://link.goodhope.ag/love-respect30 Prayers: https://link.goodhope.ag/30-prayersGiving Information: https://goodhope.ag/givingSTAY CONNECTEDYoutube: https://youtube.com/GoodHopeChurchInstagram: http://instagram.com/goodhopemnFacebook: http://fb.com/goodhopemn 

In this sermon, Pastor Daniel Stevens unpacks two powerful biblical principles that are essential for strong relationships: love and respect. He explains that these values are meant for every relationship we navigate, not just marriage. Scripture shows us that loving others and honoring them well is a defining mark of following Jesus, even when it feels difficult or countercultural.Pastor Daniel Stevens then applies these truths to marriage, highlighting how God places a special emphasis on love and respect in different ways. When relationships feel off balance, adding more love and more respect can change everything. The message ultimately challenges us to evaluate our relationship with Jesus, not just as Savior, but as Lord, trusting His guidance and allowing His love to shape how we live and love others.#LoveAndRespect #HealthyRelationships #MarriageAndFaith #WalkByFaith #ChristianLife #JesusChangesEverything #GoodHopeChurch30 Prayers: https://link.goodhope.ag/30-prayersGiving Information: https://goodhope.ag/givingSTAY CONNECTEDYoutube: https://youtube.com/GoodHopeChurchInstagram: http://instagram.com/goodhopemnFacebook: http://fb.com/goodhopemn 

Pastor Mike Jurek teaches on the biblical foundation of love and respect as essential keys to thriving relationships. This message makes it clear that these principles extend beyond marriage and speak to how we treat everyone around us. Jesus calls His followers to love deeply and honor sincerely, setting a higher standard for how believers engage with others.Pastor Mike Jurek also walks through how love and respect uniquely strengthen marriage when practiced intentionally. When expectations fall short or challenges arise, choosing to respond with greater love and respect can bring healing and growth. The message closes by pointing us back to Jesus as both Lord and Savior, inviting us to fully trust Him, submit to His leadership, and receive His grace as we grow in faith.#LoveAndRespect #BiblicalRelationships #MarriageMessage #FaithAndLife #FollowJesus #ChristianTeaching #GoodHopeChurchSermon Notes: https://link.goodhope.ag/love-resepect-mj30 Prayers: https://link.goodhope.ag/30-prayersGiving Information: https://goodhope.ag/givingSTAY CONNECTEDYoutube: https://youtube.com/GoodHopeChurchInstagram: http://instagram.com/goodhopemnFacebook: http://fb.com/goodhopemn

This powerful psalm reveals the heart of a true disciple, someone who loves God's Word, meditates on it, and lives it out with joy and obedience. Psalm 119 reminds us that faith is not just about knowing God's truth but practicing it daily, building our lives on a firm foundation that cannot be shaken.The psalmist also shows us that discipleship includes perseverance, correction, and grace.
