ResLife Access

We as an Access Community are a people of F.I.R.E. We are committed to a lifestyle of Fragrance, Intercession, Rest, and Evangelism. Pastor Jared kicks off our series on Rest by clarifying what Rest is and what it is not. This month, we will discover what it means to truly Sabbath with God. We pray you are blessed, encouraged, and revived as you listen to this message.

On this National Day of Prayer, Pastor Jared calls us into a lifestyle of prayer and intercession. Surveying the scriptures and the sermons of some fathers in the faith, we will see that one of the most important things you could do with your life is to pray. As Oswald Chambers says, "Prayer does not fit us for the greater work; prayer is the greater work." We pray you are blessed, encouraged, and revived as you listen to this message.

Pastor Jared and his good friend John Ferland tackle the topic of the prophetic. Filled with life-giving stories, they share about how the prophetic has the power to put wind in your sails, call you higher into your destiny, and provide comfort in a much needed time. Join in for a powerful time of teaching and ministry. We pray you are blessed, encouraged, and revived as you listen to this message.

Christianity is a Kingdom. God desires that His Kingdom would come to the earth and take up residence. One of the ways that the Kingdom of God expands on the earth is through the gifts of the Holy Spirit. But what are the gifts of the Holy Spirit exactly? What do they look like in everyday life? That is what Pastor Jared hopes to convey through this sermon series. We hope you are blessed, encouraged, and revived as you listen to this message.

We cannot live this life without the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit animates and gives life to everything we do as believers. We do not desire to just be "spiritual people". We desire to live life empowered by the Spirit. Join us as we welcome guest speaker Randy DonGiovanni to give a power-packed message. We hope you are blessed, encouraged, and revived as you listen to this message.

Christianity is not a religion. Let that sink in. It is a Kingdom. Colossians 1:13 says that you were saved "out of the power of darkness and conveyed into the kingdom of the Son of His love." When you made Jesus Lord of your life, you entered His Kingdom. God desires that this Kingdom would come to the earth; that this earth would be completely overwhelmed by the presence and rule of the Kingdom of God. How is this going to happen? Listen in as Pastor Jared unveils the power of the fruit and gifts of the Holy Spirit to bring the Kingdom of God to the earth. We pray that you are blessed, encouraged, and revived as you listen to this message.

What is the Baptism of the Holy Spirit? Does it come with Salvation? How about speaking in tongues? What is that about? With all of the charismania going on in our world today, it is easy to sink into confusion and become jaded toward the Baptism of the Holy Spirit and Speaking in Tongues. Join us as our Lead Pastor, Duane VanderKlok, clears the air concerning the baptism and the tongues. We pray you are blessed, encouraged, and revived as you listen to this message.

What if I told you that signs, wonders, and miracles were not an act that you perform, but an identity you live from? Today, Jim Baker, our dear friend from Zion Christian Fellowship in Columbus, Ohio, calls us into our supernatural identity as sons and daughters of God. He unveils the truth that supernatural power has less to do with your effort and more to do with your identity. We pray you are blessed, encouraged, and revived as you listen to this message.

Who is the Holy Spirit? Yes, you're right, He is a third person of the trinity, but what is His role in our lives? How do we interact with Him as followers of Jesus? Today, Pastor Jared invites us into awe and wonder as we meditate on the truth that the Holy Spirit is God and desires to live within us. We pray you are blessed, encouraged and revived as you listen to today's message.

This week Pastors Samuel and Becca VanderKlok preach a message on all things dating and relationships. They offer biblical insights, honest stories, and life changing truths that are sure to leave an impact. We pray that you are blessed, encouraged, and revived as you listen to today's message.

Have you ever wondered if you are destined to repeat what you observed in your family? Have you ever wished that your future marriage could be different from your parents' current marriage or lack thereof? Do you wonder if there's a different way? Good news: Your family history does not have to determine your family's future. While sin leaves a ripple effect in families, God's grace is greater. Today, Access worship leaders, Calvin and Mekenzi Brown share their story of marriage and give three keys on how to break negative generational patterns in your family. We pray you are blessed, encouraged, and revived as you listen to today's message.

The purpose of marriage is to bear the image of Christ. Any couple who decides to do marriage God's way can have a loving and lasting marriage. However, God's way of life is counter-cultural. The ways of God often directly oppose the ways of this world. That is why we must not "conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by changing the way we think," (Romans 12:2). Today, Pastor Jared explores what Tim Elmore would call the SCENE of our world. He exposes the lies of our culture concerning marriage and offers God's truth. We pray you are blessed, encouraged, and revived as you listen to today's message.

The state of marriage in the United States is bleak. With only 50-60% of marriages lasting long-term, we can definitely see that doing marriage the world's way is not working. However, there is a different way to do marriage; one that will lead to a LASTING and LOVING marriage. God intended the marriage relationship to be the most fulfilling relationship on the planet. But if we want God's intention, we must learn to do marriage God's way. Join us as Pastor Jared unveils the importance of PRIORITIES in marriage.

God is raising up intercessors in the world. People who will bury their lives in prayer, trusting in the God of the impossible. Today, Pastor Jared continues our series on Intercession by answering these major questions: What is intercession? How do I know what to pray for? and How long should I intercede? Tune in, send it to a friend, and be encouraged.

This week Pastor Jared brings a message on our Access Culture of F.I.R.E. We at Access do not just want to be on fire for Jesus when we're 20 and 30. NO! We want to be more on fire for Jesus when we're 70 and 80 than we are right now. How are we going to do that? Is it through gritting our teeth and trying real hard? Is it through powerful encounters at worship gatherings? Is it through luck of the draw and human personality? No, the way of Jesus is clear. It is a way of F.I.R.E.. If we will practice the four disciplines of F.I.R.E., we truly will be a people who burn in private and burn in public. We will be a people on FIRE.

Let me ask you some questions: if God answered every single one of your prayers right now, would you still have a reason to pray? Did Jesus have all his needs met on earth? Yes! Did He lack anything? No! Yet He still prayed. Why? Tonight, Pastor David brings a message on the heartbeat and purpose of intercession, bringing us to this central point... the greatest request we could ever make of God is to know Him. Join us and listen.

This week Pastor Jared teaches us what Intercession is and why it is important!

This week Pastor Jared finishes our Dating and Relationships series by tackling questions posed from our Thursday night Access Community. In this message, you will hear sound biblical advice on how to honorably break up with someone / deal with a breakup, when to incorporate your relationship with God into a relationship, and how to navigate different understandings of God in relationships. We pray you are blessed and inspired by this message, filled with hope to date and relate well.

The Bible says in Proverbs 29, "where there is no vision, the people perish." Oftentimes as young adults we enter into dating and relationships without developing a vision for success. It is no wonder why so many of us have perished or are perishing in our dating life. Vision begins in the place of trust, so before getting into practical vision, values, and boundaries, Pastor Jared invites us to ask this question: "Do I really trust the Lord with my dating and relationships? Or do I feel I have to take dating and relationships into my own hands?" Listen in for a powerful message.

Proverbs 15:22, "Without counsel plans fail, but with many advisers, they succeed." As we continue our dating and relationship series, Pastor Jared welcomes three married couples to Access for a Q & A. These "advisers" offer wisdom and practical direction for our dating life and relationships. Get a pen and journal ready and listen in for biblical counsel.

God wants to speak to us on a regular basis, but sometimes we don't know the ways that God is speaking. Pastor Jared gives a window into the different ways that God speaks and offers a helpful analogy to think about regarding our relationship with God.

This week Pastor Jared kicks off our month-long series on hearing God's voice. Tune in for an important and timely message on the importance of knowing God's word in connection with hearing His voice.

Executive Pastor Daniel Cavazos brings an amazing message on how to hear the voice of God and learning how to discern the voice of the Holy Spirit.

Romans 12 tells us to offer our entire lives to God as a living sacrifice. This means there is no area of our life left out of God's direct activity and our partnership with Him. We don't need to wait for the spectacular movements of life, but instead learn to do everything in our life to the glory of God and in the name of Christ.

When we look to Christ on the cross we see that Christ was the type of person who when cursed, wounded, reviled, disregarded, mocked, and ultimately killed, was the type of person who naturally and freely forgave and blessed. Was this just because He was a sort of superhero on the cross? No, we see the same movement in Stephen when he is martyred for the faith, and the same in the martyrs and exemplars of the faith that follow through church history. So what does it look like to be formed into the type of person that would naturally and freely forgive under every circumstance? Pastor Nick offers two virtues that undergird the kind of life that would follow Christ in this manner, and two spiritual practices to do with the aid of the Holy Spirit to begin to develop those virtues.

Listen in to this powerful testimony given by Greg Edgcombe on the merciful forgiveness of God.

So many Christians live well beneath the grace that God has for them in their life. Why? We haven't fully received the forgiveness of Christ and haven't fully given out that forgiveness. This week Pastor Jared Blauwkamp kicks off a series Uproot: receiving and extending the forgiveness of Christ. We hope you will see that forgiveness is not something that God has to do. It is something He delights in doing.

How the cross of Christ models the life of a Christian.

One of the biggest enemies to the abundant life that Jesus promises is to trust in rules, methods, and steps rather than trusting the power of God. That is what the Bible calls religion. In this message, Brennan Joseph from the EveryHeart Movement exposes areas of religion in our lives and calls us into deeper freedom.

The life that Jesus lived and the death that he died was not just to pay for our sins but to show us how to live. Join us today for an engaging message on the sacrificial nature of Jesus.

As young adults, it is imperative that we are connected to the previous generation. Through the story of Ruth, Pastor Jared unveils five things we must pick up from the previous generation in order to fulfill our destiny. Listen in for a timely and inspirational word that will bring clarity and hope.

God CAN and WANTS TO redeem every single part of your sexual history. In this podcast, Pastor Jared shares a beautiful revelation on the life of David. You will see that just like God brought forgiveness and redemption to David's life, He desires to do the same in your life.

2 Corinthians 5:17 tells us we are a new creation and the old things have passed away, why then does it feel like we are caught up in the old ways of life when we want to see the new creation at work in us? Paul tells us why in 2 Corinthians 10 when he exposes strongholds of thought patterns in our life that keep us tethered to our past and often unknowingly the lies of the enemy associated with it. Pastor Nick breaks down what a stronghold of thought is, and how to bring it before Christ for transformation taking every thought captive to the obedience of Christ. We are a new creation, and partnering with Christ in these areas will begin to bear forth the fruit we have been looking for.

This week at Access we kick off our Real Talk Series. This entire month we will be discovering God's design for sex and sexuality. Listen in as Pastor Jared goes through the purposes of Life, Marriage, and Sex in today's sermon.

Sometimes the Baptism of the Holy Spirit is reduced to tingles and goosebumps; falling out and guttural tears, but the Baptism of the Holy Spirit is MORE than that. He doesn't come so that we can have a cool experience, but so that we can live differently. Encounters with God through powerful experiences are important to the life of a believer, but encounters with God through daily disciplines are equally important. Today, we zero-in on one of those disciplines... Bible reading. We are a people who not only have powerful, emotional encounters, but also live powerful, disciplined lives.

This week Pastor Jared goes into detail about the purpose and power of the baptism of the Holy Spirit. The baptism of the Holy Spirit is not just meant to give us a good feeling, but to empower us to live different. We hope that this message leaves you inspired and empowered to live the life that Jesus paid for you.

Join us as guest speaker Jonah Engle talks about what it's like to have friendship with the Holy Spirit. What is the Holy Spirit? How can we talk to him and commune with him? What does it look like to live a life with him and have a relationship with him? This message is surely going to help with any of those questions and help us grow closer to what gifts the Father has for us.

There are so many different ways to pray and partner with what God is doing. Join us as we hear from Leah Meeuwenberg teach us what intercession is and as our community puts into action the power of intercessory prayer.

How important is prayer? Does it Actually work? What even is prayer? Pastor Jared unpacks these questions and more in his message from this past Thursday. We hope and pray that this message leads you into an encounter with the Living God, Jesus Christ.

This week Pastor Jared brings a powerful message on the second coming of Christ. Often in Christianity, we hear of the death, burial, and resurrection of Christ. But have we actually considered the reality of Christ's second coming? Jesus is returning to this earth to rule and to reign and set every wrong thing right. This truth, though chilling, is something that we long for. We want to be ones to cry, "Maranatha, Come Lord Jesus."

Join Pastor Jared as He reads and provides some insights into the birth of Christ. He is the reason for the season.

The Incarnation of Jesus Christ is not only an event that happened in the history of man, but a reality that changed mankind forever more. God became flesh identifying with mankind, and made way for us to identify wholly with Him! Pastor Nick walks through some of the brilliance and beauty of John 1 as a cosmic explanation of what happens in the nativity scenes of Matthew and Luke.

We, at Reslife Church, have a Heart for the Kingdom. In this message, Pastor Jared kicks off our December giving initiative by preaching on Kingdom Generosity. Listen to get stoked toward Kingdom giving, and for an exciting missions update.

The Trinitarian Godhead of Father, Son, and Holy Spirit have been in an eternal relationship of perfect self-giving love far before the foundations of the earth. Self giving love is at the heart of the Trinitarian reality. Though mankind has fallen and rejected our relationship with the Lord; through identification with Christ's perfect, complete, and sufficient life, death, burial, and resurrection we are now recipients and participants in the very same love that God the Father has had for His eternal Son Jesus Christ! This love is the basis for our identity in Christ Jesus. We have been invited to the table!
