In this study of Luke 24, Pastor Greg shows how Jesus draws near to those who feel disappointed, confused, or abandoned. Through the Scriptures, Jesus restores their faith—not by offering an emotional experience, but by rooting them in the unchanging Word of God.

Malachi 3 | Pastor Greg Opean The Refiner's Fire and God's Unchanging Love In this study, Pastor Greg walks us through Malachi 3—a powerful chapter marking God's final words before 400 years of silence. We're reminded that Jesus is the fulfillment of all Old Testament prophecy, and that His refining work in our lives is not to destroy, but to purify, cleanse, and restore us. He loves us deeply—flaws and all—and His refining fire brings out the reflection of Christ in us. We're also challenged to trust God with our resources, our trials, and our transformation. In the middle of correction, discomfort, or discouragement, God's call remains the same: “Return to Me, and I will return to you.” Whether you're in a season of fire or laughter, this chapter reminds us that we are His jewels—and He's not done with us yet.

Pastor Ed Rea Resurrection Sunday 2025 John 11:17-27 | Reversing Death On this Resurrection Sunday, we reflect on the powerful moment when Jesus declared, “I am the resurrection and the life.” In John 11, we witness the story of Lazarus—a friend of Jesus who had been in the grave four days—raised from the dead not just as an act of compassion, but as a prophetic sign pointing to Jesus' own resurrection and the eternal hope He offers to all who believe. This message reminds us that Jesus' resurrection is more than a future event—it is a present reality. Whether you're deeply rooted in faith or still searching for answers, this message invites you to consider the One who has conquered the grave and calls each of us to rise with Him.

Family Sunrise Service 2025 | Pastor Greg Opean The Power of the Resurrection The resurrection of Jesus didn't just change history—it redefined reality. In this Easter message, we explore how the disciples, once confused and afraid, were transformed by the truth of the risen Christ. At first, their hopes were shaped by political frustrations and earthly expectations. But the resurrection opened their eyes to a greater kingdom and a deeper love—one that included not only them, but the very people they had despised. Jesus came not to conquer by force, but to lay down His life for the world. And when He rose from the grave, everything He said was confirmed. The cross made sense. His love made sense. And His lordship became undeniable. This message unpacks how the risen Jesus changes our view of God, our understanding of ourselves, and our calling in the world. When we confess that Jesus is Lord, we align with a truth that brings freedom, purpose, and peace. Packinghouse's Family Sunrise Service from April 20, 2025.

Good Friday Pastor Ed Rea Matthew 27:46-54 | 7 Miracles at the Crucifixion The crucifixion of Jesus is not only the most pivotal moment in human history—it is also marked by profound supernatural events that affirm His divine mission and identity. In Matthew 27, we witness seven distinct miracles surrounding the death of Christ: from midday darkness to the temple veil tearing in two, from the earthquake to the resurrection of the saints, and even the conversion of the Roman centurion. This message takes a closer look at each of these signs, unfolding their spiritual meaning and revealing the depth of God's love and power on display at the cross. At the heart of it all is Jesus' willing sacrifice—bearing sin, yielding His spirit, and opening the way for all to draw near to God. A powerful reflection on the miracle of redemption, the fulfillment of Scripture, and the open invitation to receive eternal life.

Pastor Rick Cornejo 1 Peter 1:8-12 | Searched by Prophets, Celebrated by Angels On this Palm Sunday, Pastor Rick takes us deep into the grace of our salvation—a gift searched for by the prophets, celebrated by angels, and now experienced by us through Jesus Christ. From 1 Peter 1:8–12, we explore how the Old Testament prophets, especially Isaiah, longed to understand the coming of the Messiah. We reflect on Isaiah 53, where Christ's suffering and victory were foretold with stunning clarity. Though Isaiah could only glimpse, we now see the cross and the empty tomb in full color. Whether you're walking through hardship or just need a reminder of the hope we have in Christ, this message reminds us: salvation is a free gift of grace—impossible to earn, but ours to enjoy.

Pastor Ed Rea Romans 4:1-25 | By Faith What makes us right with God? Is it rule-keeping? Rituals? Good behavior? In Romans 4, Paul gives a clear answer: we are justified by faith. Pastor Ed unpacks the lives of Abraham and David—flawed, broken men who were counted righteous not by works, but because they believed God. This message explores what it means to be forgiven, to have righteousness imputed by grace, and why salvation can never be earned. Whether you've failed big or just feel stuck, this is a message of hope and freedom: God loves you. Forgiveness is free. And it's yours for the asking.

Pastor Greg Opean Malachi 1 | “I Have Loved You” In this opening chapter of Malachi, the final prophetic book of the Old Testament, God reminds His people—who have grown cold and complacent—of a powerful truth: “I have loved you.” As Pastor Greg unpacks the historical and spiritual context of Malachi 1, he also tackles one of the most misunderstood verses in Scripture: “Jacob I have loved, Esau I have hated.” This in-depth teaching brings clarity to God's choosing of Israel—not as favoritism, but as a means to bring salvation to all people. With Scripture from Romans 9, John 3:16, and more, this message reminds us of God's relentless, global love and our role as His chosen to make Him known. Whether you've wrestled with the idea of God's election, or just need to be reminded that God hasn't given up on you, this message is a powerful anchor of grace and truth.

Genesis 22:1-17 | Pastor Greg Opean The Gospel According to Abraham Long before Jesus walked the earth, God preached the Gospel through the life of Abraham. In this powerful message, we explore how Genesis 22 gives us a prophetic glimpse into the sacrifice of Christ—2,000 years before it happened.

Zechariah 14 | Pastor Greg Opean The Day of the Lord & the Hope Beyond the Storms In the final chapter of Zechariah, we look ahead to the Day of the Lord—a time of judgment, renewal, and ultimate restoration. God will confront the evil of this world, bring justice, and prepare the way for something new. Though more trials lie ahead, this chapter reminds us that Jesus will return, stand on the Mount of Olives, and reign in righteousness. Every tear will be wiped away, and everything will be made holy. Until then, we hold fast to His promise: “Behold, I make all things new.” Packinghouse's Wednesday night worship service from April 2, 2025.

Pastor Ed Rea Romans 3:21-31 | Now the Good News In this message from Romans 3, we reach the powerful turning point of Paul's letter—where the bad news of human sin meets the good news of God's grace. We explore what it means to be justified freely by God through faith in Jesus Christ, and how redemption, grace, and righteousness come not by works, but by trusting in the finished work of Christ. This foundational passage answers the divine dilemma: How can a holy God declare the guilty not guilty?

James 5:7-12 | Pastor Rick Cornejo Trusting God in the Waiting In this message from James 5:7–12, we're reminded that waiting is not wasted. Like a farmer waiting on a harvest or a potato planted in faith, we're called to trust that God is working—even when we can't see it. This passage encourages us to stay patient, stand firm, and serve others while we wait for the Lord's return. With biblical examples like Job and practical wisdom from Scripture, this teaching calls us to grow deeper in trust, speak with integrity, and lean into God's compassion and mercy. "You have a pulse—God has a plan." Be patient. Stay faithful. God is working. Packinghouse's Sunday evening worship service from March 23, 2025.

Pastor Ed Rea Romans 3:1-20 | By Deeds of the Law No Flesh Will Be Justified In Romans 3, Paul makes a powerful case: all have sinned, and no one is made righteous by keeping the law. Whether Jew or Gentile, religious or not, we all stand guilty—but God remains faithful. This message dives into the heart of Paul's argument and explores God's justice, the failure of human effort, and the incredible gift of righteousness through Jesus. You'll see how even our brokenness becomes a backdrop for God's grace, and why it's not about our goodness, but about trusting the One who paid it all.

As tensions rise in our world today, this powerful chapter reminds us that God's chosen people, land, and purpose are still unfolding—and it all points to Jesus. Why did God choose Israel? What does it mean to be “chosen”? And how does this ancient prophecy speak to the spiritual battle we're seeing today?

At the core? A call to let go of self-centered living and surrender fully to God. What if life isn't about control—but about trusting the One who truly is in control? Whether it's guarding our words, surrendering our plans, or finding freedom from materialism, James reminds us: Let God be God. Packinghouse's Sunday evening worship service from March 16, 2025.

Pastor Greg Opean Three Responses to the Cross | Luke 23:47-49 As Jesus breathes His last, we witness three powerful responses—each honest, each different, and each part of God's work in drawing people to Himself.
