Passage: Hebrews 3:1 – 4:13 In this message, Daniel Goepfrich examined the second warning in the book of Hebrews: the danger of disbelief. Much like the first generation of Israelites who came out of Egypt, Christians who are drifting can develop an “evil, unbelieving heart that forsakes the living God.” In Numbers 13-14, the nation did not believe that God could deliver them from the Canaanites, so they were not allowed to enter Canaan. Christians who turn away from Jesus […]

Passage: Hebrews 2:5-18 In this message, Daniel Goepfrich focused on the humanity of Jesus and why it’s essential for our faith. Jesus, in his humanity, regains what we lost through Adam and shows us a perfect example of trust and alignment with God’s character. Jesus being fully human and fully divine brings hope and restoration, reminding us that we’re not alone in our struggles. Remember: Jesus is bigger than any challenge we face!

He connected these ideas to our spiritual journey, noting that summer can be difficult, and perseverance is a necessity. Ultimately, Daniel encouraged us to persevere and align ourselves with Christ, ready to delve into the book of Hebrews in upcoming […]

Passage: Matthew 1:18-25; 2:12-23 This is the first of three messages exploring some “heroes” of the Christmas story. In this message, Dr. Daniel Goepfrich walks us through several events in which Jesus’ adoptive father, Joseph, followed God without a word. His example shows us that simple obedience may just be the highest form of heroism. Bumper music, “November” by Limujii [FTUM Release]

Passage: Matthew 16:16 In this message, Dr. Daniel Goepfrich focuses on Jesus’ death and resurrection. His death demonstrated His humanity, while his resurrection confirmed his power over death.

Understanding this equips us to appreciate the depth of Jesus' sacrifice as more than a historical […]
