Are you truly devoted to God—or just going through the motions?In this powerful message, we explore what real devotion looks like beyond daily routines and religious habits. Using scripture and raw real-life stories, Pastor Benjamin reveals how hidden “codes” in our hearts can compete with our love for God. This message will challenge you to examine what truly drives your life.

Sermon preached on June 15th. This isn't just a Father's Day sermon. It's a powerful call to reclaim the spirit of fatherhood — not just for men, but for anyone who carries the weight of responsibility, protection, and generational purpose. From the personal reflection of a father realizing that his daughter's first understanding of God the Father will come through him — to the unforgettable story of a man fighting a wildfire alone with nothing but a hose — this message is packed with urgency, hope, and conviction.  Listen until the end — because what you think is the end of your strength might actually be the beginning of your true capacity.

This is more than a testimony. It's a soul-shaking, identity-breaking, God-glorifying story of redemption. Brother Nate Murase opens up with brutal honesty about growing up in a world where he never fit in. Raised in a multicultural family, surrounded by diverse communities, he shares how rejection, confusion, and pride led him to a place of complete isolation—until God flipped the script. From dominating on the basketball court to drowning in darkness after losing it all... From being lost in his identity to discovering who he truly was in Christ... This message dives deep into identity, race, purpose, pride, and what happens when we try to define ourselves outside of God. It's funny. It's real. It's raw. And it's full of hope.

  What's really going on in your heart—and how is it showing up in your life? In this message, Pastor Sunhee challenges us to pause and reflect: What are you being filled with—and what are you leaking into the world around you? This message dives deep into the connection between our beliefs, emotions, and spiritual health. The truth is:- What you believe becomes what you feel.- What you feel will leak out of you—into your family, your relationships, your job, and your walk with God. “You can't leak what you're not filled with.” —  It's time to ask: What have I been pursuing? What am I believing? And what's leaking out of me?

We pray for blessing. We chase breakthrough. We plead for provision. But there's one promise in Scripture that is greater than them all—yet it's the one we pursue the least. In this powerful, Spirit-soaked message from the Spring of the Spiritseries, Pastor Benjamin exposes the forgotten center of the Christian life: the Holy Spirit Himself. Get ready for a deep, honest, and transformational encounter that will awaken your hunger for more. This is not about tongues. This is not about hype. This is about the gift of God's own presence—Himself. If you're thirsty, come and drink.

In this message we're reminded that prayer isn't just a religious task — it's a lifeline in our moments of sorrow and temptation. Jesus didn't ask His disciples to pray for Him, but with Him — and when they fell asleep, He exposed the root of our prayerlessness: we often choose being comfortable over seeking the Comforter. The enemy offers temporary relief — distractions, entertainment, and avoidance — to keep us stuck in our brokenness. That's being comfortable. But the Comforter, the Holy Spirit, brings true healing, strength, and restoration. While comfort makes us whole, comfortable keeps us numb. This message is a wake-up call to stop running from the pain and instead bring it to the One who can truly carry it.

Have you been comforted by a counterfeit? In this eye-opening message, we dive deep into what it means to truly receive comfort from the Holy Spirit—and how the enemy offers false comforts that keep us stuck in spiritual ditches. Through the parable of the Good Samaritan, you'll see yourself not just as the helper, but as the one in need of rescue. You'll be challenged to stop self-justifying and start reaching for the God of all comfort — the only One who can truly lift you out. Jesus didn't just promise us power—He promised us another Comforter. And until we learn to stop turning to the wrong things (or people) for comfort, we'll keep digging our pit deeper. If you're ready to stop settling for counterfeit peace and step into the fullness of God's comfort, this message is for you.

Be Careful, Little Mouth, What You Say” - Dr. Sam HuddlestonWords can wound—or heal. In this powerful and often hilarious message, Dr. Sam Huddleston shares real stories of marriage, legacy, race, forgiveness, and the power of the tongue.

What if the cross wasn't just another death—but the moment every atrocity in history was absorbed by one man? In this episode, we unpack how Jesus didn't just carry suffering—He became it. And through the resurrection, He didn't just come back to life—He reversed the curse, trauma, and shame of humanity. This isn't just about Easter. It's about you.

In this episode, we reflect on the moments of pain, distance, and restoration in the life of Peter—and in our own lives. From the Garden of Gethsemane to the fire-warmed courtyard, from denial to redemption by the sea, we explore how suffering can either push us away from Jesus or draw us closer than ever. This message challenges the forgetfulness of our faith and reawakens us to the simple, powerful truth of the Gospel: that God so loved the world, He gave His only Son. Whether you're in a season of silence, sorrow, or struggle, this episode is a call to remember, return, and run toward the One who never stopped loving us.

Whether you're a lifelong believer or just starting to seek, this is your call to recognize the King, cry out “Hosanna,” and let Him take His rightful seat in your heart.

What if “home” was never safe… but God was calling you there all along?

Are you in a season of waiting? Feeling like your promises are taking longer than expected? This sermon reminds us that loving God means being patient—waiting with expectancy, even when we can't see how. Just like David, when you're in your 'cave' moments, don't give up. Trust God's perfect timing and stand firm. Your destiny is still on the way, and He will see it through. #Patience #Faith #TrustGod #DivineTiming #DontGiveUp"
