The Connect Church is a multi-cultural, multi-generational, multi-ethnic church dedicated to connecting people to God, His People, and His purpose for their lives.
In this message, we explore the life-changing conversation between Jesus and Nicodemus and discover how true discipleship is birthed, nurtured, matured, and passed on through godly conversations. This teaching reminds us that seeking Jesus leads to conversations with Him and about Him, that conversations clarify what silence distorts, and that restoration—not affirmation—is the heart of biblical discipleship. When our conversations are centered on Christ, both vertically with God and horizontally with others, they carry the power to remove limitations, reveal truth, and lead us into freedom in Him. Ultimately, discipleship doesn't only happen in conversations—but it never happens without them—inviting us to courageously engage in Christ-centered conversations that bring healing, clarity, and transformation.Scripture: John 3:1-10Speaker: Pastor Kyle HornerDid you make a decision to follow Christ today?

In Part 2 of this CORE teaching, we move from who the Holy Spirit is to what He provides, produces, and protects in the life of a believer. We talk honestly about the state of our culture—and why the “fruit” we all long for (love, peace, joy, kindness, faithfulness) can't be manufactured by willpower or religion, but only formed in us through the Spirit.You'll hear why the Holy Spirit is the Provider of our connection to Jesus, the Seal that guarantees our inheritance, the Counselor who gives wisdom and guidance, and the Protector who empowers us in spiritual battles—through prayer and through the Word (rhema). We also unpack the difference between demonic oppression vs. possession, and why believers can walk with confidence because we are sealed by the Spirit.This teaching is part of CORE, a monthly class at The Connect Church designed to help believers grow deeper in Scripture, theology, and the gospel.Find the class notes on our Linktree page under CORE, “Why We Need the Holy Spirit”: https://linktr.ee/theconnectchurchLearn more about The Connect Church and stay connected: https://www.theconnectchurch.com
In this message, we explore what it means to open our lives to Jesus when He “drops in.” Rooted in Matthew 26:17–19, this teaching challenges us to examine the criteria we use to open the door to Christ—and how obedience to His Word positions us to encounter His presence. We discover that Jesus' Word often precedes His arrival, and our willingness to prepare room for Him shapes what He reveals in us and through us.This message invites us to live with open doors, responsive hearts, and obedient faith—ready to welcome Jesus wherever and however He chooses to show up.Scripture: Matthew 26:17–19Speaker: Pastor Kyle HornerDid you make a decision to follow Christ today?

Why do we need the Holy Spirit—and who is He, really?In Part 1 of this CORE teaching, we lay the foundation by answering one of the most important questions for discipleship: Who is the Holy Spirit? We explore how the Spirit isn't a vague force or “power station,” but a Person—God Himself—who empowers believers for transformation and kingdom advancement.We walk through key Scriptures showing the Holy Spirit as the source of dunamis power, the Helper/Advocate (Parakletos) promised by Jesus, and the One who empowers creation, Christ's ministry, and the Church today. We also trace the Holy Spirit's work through the Old Testament as a foreshadowing of what Jesus would promise and pour out.This teaching is part of CORE, a monthly class at The Connect Church designed to help believers grow deeper in their understanding of Scripture, theology, and the gospel.Find the class notes on our Linktree page under CORE, “Why We Need the Holy Spirit”: https://linktr.ee/theconnectchurchLearn more about The Connect Church and stay connected: https://www.theconnectchurch.com
