Looking at passages such as Proverbs 3:5–6, Proverbs 12:25, and Philippians 4, he explains that true wisdom is found in depending on God's promises rather than our own understanding or the constant pressures of the world. The message challenges believers to surrender their worries through prayer, fill their minds with God's truth instead of fear, and rest in the assurance that the Lord faithfully provides, directs, and cares for His children. Ultimately, Aaron reminds us that lasting peace comes not from controlling our circumstances but from wholeheartedly trusting the God who is always in control. - Aaron Hale - Sunday, July 19, 2026

Packinghouse's Wednesday night worship service from July 151, 2026. In Exodus 8–10, Pastor Greg explains how each plague was a direct judgment against the false gods of Egypt, revealing that the Lord alone has power over creation while exposing the emptiness of idols and Pharaoh's supposed divinity. He highlights Moses' remarkable transformation from a fearful, reluctant servant into a confident leader who simply obeys God's commands and leaves the outcome in God's hands. The study also contrasts Pharaoh's repeated hardening of his own heart with God's eventual confirmation of Pharaoh's chosen rebellion, demonstrating the danger of continually resisting the Lord. Throughout the message, Pastor Greg reminds believers that God always provides a way of escape for those who trust His word, faithfully blesses those who walk with Him, and desires that people from every nation come to know Him through faith. - Greg Opean - Wednesday, July 15, 2026

Packinghouse's Sunday evening worship service from July 5, 2026. Matthew 3:13–17 — The Baptism of Jesus Jesus' baptism marks the beginning of His public ministry and reveals the heart of His mission. In Matthew 3:13–17, Pastor Rick explains why the sinless Son of God chose to be baptized, not because He needed repentance, but because He came to identify with the sinners He would save. The message explores Christ's humility, His perfect obedience to the Father's plan, and the significance of baptism as a public identification with His death, burial, and resurrection. As the Father declares His pleasure in the Son and the Holy Spirit descends upon Him, we are given a beautiful picture of the Trinity at work in the plan of redemption. Ultimately, this study reminds us that Jesus entered our brokenness to rescue us, and through faith in Him we are welcomed into a restored relationship with the Father. - Rick Cornejo - Sunday, July 5, 2026

Packinghouse's Sunday morning worship service from July 5, 2026. 1 Corinthians 8:1–13 — Liberty Guided by Love Christian freedom is a wonderful gift, but it was never meant to be exercised without love. In this study of 1 Corinthians 8:1–13, Pastor Ed explains that while believers are free in Christ, our knowledge should never become more important than our love for others. Using Paul's teaching on food offered to idols, he shows that mature faith is willing to limit personal freedoms when they might cause another believer to stumble or hinder someone from coming to Christ. The message reminds us that true spiritual maturity is not measured by how much we know or what we're free to do, but by a heart that reflects Christ's love, seeks the good of others, and uses liberty to build people up rather than ourselves. - Ed Rea - Sunday, July 5, 2026

Packinghouse's Wednesday night worship service from *date*. Exodus 5 — Trusting God When Obedience Gets Hard Following God's will does not always make life easier right away. In Exodus 5, Pastor Greg explains how Moses faithfully obeys God's command to confront Pharaoh, only to face greater opposition, discouragement, and criticism from both Pharaoh and the Israelites. The message explores why God sometimes allows trials to intensify before bringing deliverance, teaching that faith is built by trusting His promises even when circumstances seem to contradict them. Rather than abandoning the mission when life becomes difficult, believers are encouraged to remember God's character, stand firm in His Word, and trust that He is working according to His perfect timing. Ultimately, the study reminds us that God's presence—not immediate success—is the foundation of our confidence as we follow Him. - Greg Opean - Wednesday, July 1, 2026

Matthew 3:1–12 — Prepare the Way John the Baptist's message was simple but life-changing: Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand. In this study of Matthew 3:1–12, Pastor Rick explains that repentance is not about earning God's love or trying harder, but about changing our minds, turning toward Christ, and receiving the grace He freely offers. As John prepares the way for Jesus, he contrasts empty religion with genuine faith, reminding us that salvation comes through God's work, not our own. This message highlights the mercy behind God's call to repentance and points to Jesus, who not only forgives our sins but transforms us from the inside out through the Holy Spirit. - Rick Cornejo - Sunday, June 28, 2026

Packinghouse's Sunday morning worship service from June 28, 2026. 1 Corinthians 7:16–24 — Bloom Where You Are Planted Contentment isn't found by constantly chasing a different life—it comes from faithfully following Christ where He has placed you. In this study of 1 Corinthians 7:16–24, Pastor Ed explains that every believer has been called by God to serve Him in their present circumstances, whether married or single, employed or retired, free or bound by difficult situations. Rather than measuring our worth by our status, career, or circumstances, we are reminded that our greatest identity is found in Christ, who purchased us with His blood and calls us to live for His glory. As we learn to trust God's plan, embrace the unforced rhythms of grace, and faithfully bloom where we are planted, He uses our lives to point others to Himself. - Ed Rea - Sunday, June 28, 2026

Packinghouse's Wednesday night worship service from June 24, 2026. Exodus 4 emphasizes that God does not call people because they are qualified, but because He is faithful. Pastor Greg explains how Moses repeatedly offers excuses, focusing on his failures, fears, insecurities, and perceived weaknesses, yet God continually reminds him that His presence is all that matters. Through the signs of the staff, the leprous hand, and the Nile water, God demonstrates His authority over Pharaoh, sin, and Egypt, assuring Moses that He will accomplish His purposes despite human weakness. The message encourages believers not to let past mistakes, personal struggles, or feelings of inadequacy keep them from obeying God's calling, since He often chooses broken people who rely on His strength. Ultimately, God calls His people to stop making excuses, trust His promises, and step forward in faith, knowing that He equips those He sends. Follow us: - Greg Opean - Wednesday, June 24, 2026

Pastor Rick explains how Joseph repeatedly obeys God's direction, immediately leading his family to Egypt and later back to Israel, showing that faithful believers follow God's lead even when they do not see the full picture. The message emphasizes that events like the flight to Egypt, the sorrow in Bethlehem, and Jesus growing up in Nazareth all fulfilled Old Testament prophecy and revealed Jesus as the promised Messiah. Even in the midst of evil, suffering, and uncertainty, God remained in control of the story, accomplishing His purposes exactly as He promised.

The study also connects this revelation to Jesus, who identified Himself as the great “I AM,” emphasizing that the same God who called Moses still sees, hears, and delivers His people today. - Greg Opean - Wednesday, June 17, 2026

Packinghouse's Sunday evening worship service from May 10, 2026. Revelation 20 gives a powerful look at the final victory of Jesus over Satan, sin, death, and evil . Walking verse by verse through the chapter, this message explores Satan being bound, the thousand-year reign of Christ, the final judgment, and the promise of eternal life for those who trust in Jesus. Throughout the study, there is a strong reminder that God is fully in control, that evil does not win, and that Jesus keeps every promise He has made. While the chapter contains intense imagery and sobering warnings about judgment, the heart of the message points back again and again to the grace of God, the hope believers have in Christ, and the invitation for anyone to surrender their life to Jesus and receive eternal life. - Rick Cornejo - Sunday, May 10, 2026

Packinghouse's Sunday morning worship service from May 10, 2026. Acts 7 closes with the powerful account of Stephen, the first Christian martyr, whose bold defense before the Sanhedrin exposed how easily people can turn religion, traditions, and even sacred places into boxes that try to contain God . As Stephen walks through Israel's history, he shows that God has always moved beyond human control and that the tabernacle, sacrifices, and temple all pointed forward to Jesus Christ—the true sacrifice who brings sinful people into God's presence by grace. Even as the religious leaders respond with rage and stone him to death, Stephen reflects the heart of Jesus by forgiving his enemies and entrusting himself fully to God. Woven through the message is a moving Mother's Day reflection, comparing the self-sacrificial love of mothers to the life of Stephen and ultimately to Christ Himself, reminding us that true greatness in God's kingdom is found in lives poured out for others. - Greg Opean - Sunday, May 10, 2026
