Reel Faith  What happens when life takes a turn you never expected? In this powerful message, Pastor Steve Garcia opens our Reel Faith summer series with the critically acclaimed film Sound of Metal—a raw story about identity, loss, and the painful beauty of surrender. As Ruben, a heavy-metal drummer, loses his hearing, he's forced to confront the truth that sometimes the life we planned isn't the life God intends.  Pastor Steve pairs Ruben's journey with the biblical story of Saul, showing how God uses detours not to destroy us—but to redefine us.

Title: Everlasting Father Description: It's amazing how many things change over time, think back what your favorite gift was that you got for Christmas last year.

Title: Part Three Description: During this time of the year, a lot of us love to watch Christmas movies. One of the classics is called “A Christmas Story”. The main character is a 9 year old boy named Ralphie and all he wants for Christmas is a Red Ryder BB Gun. But his mom, his teacher, and even the mall Santa, all tell him what? “You'll shoot your eye out kid”. I think sometimes we can view Jesus in a similar way, especially this time of the year. We still see Him as a helpless baby in a manger to be adored instead of Almighty God to be feared.
