Ever feel like your mind just won't shut off? Like you're carrying way more than you can handle—but you're too tired to even talk about it? In this message, we're talking about what to do when life feels too heavy. Jesus doesn't ignore your mental and emotional health—He gives you a way to walk through it. Let's get practical. Let's get honest. Let's finally put some of that weight down.

You ever show up expecting one thing and get hit with something totally different? Like booking a “decent” hotel and walking into a crime scene? Been there.

Ever feel like God could never use someone like you?In this message, we're getting real about insecurity—the kind that whispers, “God will never use you.” Whether it's the voice in your head or the wallpaper project that went sideways (you'll hear that story too), we've all had moments where we doubt ourselves more than we doubt God.But what if your weakness is actually the very thing that qualifies you? What if God specializes in using the unlikely, the insecure, and even the full-on failures? (Spoiler: He does.)This message is for the ones who've blown it, the ones who feel overlooked, and the ones who wonder if God made a mistake choosing them. Good news: You are not a mistake. You're a masterpiece.Let's talk about what it means to face your insecurities—and still say yes to God's calling.

Feeling Abandoned by God? Here's What to Do.Have you ever felt like God left you hanging? Like you're lost, staring at a gray screen with no directions?

And we'll explore practical steps for responding to that feeling.When you feel like God is nowhere to be found, here's how to respond:✅ Remember He's still with you.✅ Turn your “Why, God?” into “What, God?”✅ Ask God, “What do you want to do through me?”This conversation is for anyone feeling hurt, lost, or struggling to see God's hand in their life. Because while your pain is real, so is His presence. Let's walk through this together.

Ever felt let down by Christians who preach one thing but live another? You're not alone. In Week 2 of our series, Doubting God, we tackle one of the biggest reasons people doubt their faith: the hypocrisy of believers.From religious leaders putting on a show to everyday Christians who fall short—it's confusing and hurtful.

Jesus offers grace, healing, and forgiveness for everyone—hypocrites included.If you've been hurt by the Church or Christians, this message is for you. It's time to shake off the dust and move forward, trusting in the One who never fails.

Failure is something we all experience—but what does Jesus do with our failure? In this powerful conclusion to our Miracles series, we dive into one of the most relatable miracles in the Bible: the restoration of Peter.Peter had seen Jesus perform incredible miracles—healing the sick, raising the dead, and even commanding nature itself. And yet, despite all he had witnessed, he failed. He denied Jesus when it mattered most. But here's the incredible truth: failure wasn't the end of Peter's story, and it's not the end of yours either.

This miracle is wild. Seriously. All miracles are amazing, but this one? It's on another level.In this message, we're diving into the story of Lazarus—where Jesus doesn't just heal the sick, He raises the dead.

He's not just here to inspire us. He has resurrection power, and that power is still at work today.So, what does this miracle mean for you?

If you've ever felt stuck, if you've ever wondered where God is in your pain—this message is for you.Let's dig in.

In this message, we dive into one of the greatest miracles Jesus performed—not just healing a man physically, but transforming his heart.

Life is full of storms—some we see coming, others hit us out of nowhere. Whether it's a health crisis, a broken relationship, or an unexpected job loss, these moments can shake us to our core. But what if the storm isn't just about the storm? What if it's about who we trust in the middle of it?In this message, we kick off Week 1 of our Miracles series by diving into Mark 4, where Jesus calms the storm on the Sea of Galilee. The disciples were afraid, but Jesus had already told them, “We're going to the other side.” Just like them, we often struggle to trust God when the waves start crashing.Join us as we unpack powerful lessons about faith, fear, and what it means to truly trust Jesus in the midst of life's most unpredictable moments.
