The Well: Sermon Video

As we begin our new series, Invitation, we encounter Jesus' call to a life shaped by His grace. By learning to live into His invitation, our relationship with Jesus deepens, drawing us into greater dependence on His will and leading us into a place of rest in Him. Speaker: Dave Obwald

As we consider the kingship of David and his wrestling with the weight of God's holiness in a moment of tragedy, we encounter a moment where faith is tested and devotion takes shape. David's continual pursuit of the Lord reveals that a life fully given to God is formed by both a passion for who He is and a surrender to His Word. Speaker: Brad Bell

As we consider the life of David and the journey that led him to the throne, we are reminded that seasons of desolation are not without purpose. David's story continually invites us to consider how even in difficult seasons, the Lord is drawing us closer to His presence and forming deeper spiritual maturity within us, for our good and for His glory. Speaker: Brad Bell

As Saul's reign comes to an end and Israel enters a moment of transition, we are reminded that the direction of our hearts shapes the legacy of our lives. Saul's story warns us that we can remain around the things of God while drifting from a true relationship with Him, inviting us to build our lives on a faithful and abiding walk with the Lord. Speaker: Mike Slayden

As we look at a difficult season in David's life, we see a time of desolation where he drifts from seeking the Lord. In these certain seasons of life, what we truly believe begins to surface. David's story reminds us to return to God, the One who is with us and for us, learning to run to Him and trust His presence even in the hardest seasons. Speaker: Mike Slayden

As we walk through the life of David and the moments that shape his responses, we begin to see a clearer picture of what it means to walk in step with the Spirit. In a moment where he is tempted to act on impulse, David's story reminds us to slow down, discern the Lord's leading, and choose a path marked by humility, wisdom, and obedience. Speaker: Brad Bell

As we continue looking at the life of David and the opportunities before him, we begin to see his calling more clearly. In moments where he could take matters into his own hands, David's story reminds us to trust the Lord's timing, grounding our lives in His living Word and walking faithfully in what He has already spoken. Speaker: Brad Bell

Join us as we continue looking at the life of David and the moments where his sense of control, safety, and security are taken from him. In both consolation and desolation, David's story invites us to turn toward the Lord in every season, leaning into the Psalms as a guide for honest prayer and anchoring our lives in His living Word as our true refuge and strength. Speaker: Brad Bell

Join us as we continue looking at the life of David and the weight of loss and pressure that surrounds him. As Saul pursues him and relationships begin to fall away, David's story reminds us that even in seasons of rejection and persecution, we are invited to remain steady in the Lord, trusting Him as our refuge and learning to depend on His faithfulness above all else. Speaker: Mike Slayden

Join us this Easter weekend as we reflect on the hope found in Jesus and the victory of His resurrection. Through the empty tomb, we are reminded that God is faithful to redeem what is broken, bringing new life, lasting hope, and purpose to all who trust in Him. Speaker: Brad Bell

Join us as we continue looking at the life of David and his growing dependence on the Lord. As he calls out to God, David's story reminds us that while the Lord is always with us, we are invited to be attentive to His presence, learning to walk closely with Him in love and relationship. Speaker: Brad Bell

Join us as we continue looking at the life of David and his choice to walk in faith rather than give in to fear. As he faces Goliath, David's story reminds us that in the challenges we face, we are called to trust not in our own strength, but in the power and will of the Lord. Speaker: Brad Bell

Join us as we continue looking at the life of David, a man chosen by God for great purpose, set apart through his faithfulness to the Lord. David's story reminds us that even in the midst of hardship, God is faithful to accomplish His purposes and is able to turn what was meant for evil into good. Speaker: Mike Slayden

Join us as we take a closer look at the moment David is chosen to rule over Israel. As his calling unfolds, David's life reveals a heart marked by faith in the Lord and a willingness to turn back to Him in repentance, offering a picture of what it means to follow God with humility and trust. Speaker: Brad Bell

Join us as we look closely at the final moments of Saul's leadership over Israel. As his desire for God's blessing over his rule grows, Saul begins to dismiss the call to full obedience to the Lord, and his leadership ultimately moves toward defeat. Speaker: Brad Bell

Join us as we take a deeper look into the life of Saul and how his pragmatic attitude continues to spiritually mislead the nation of Israel. As Saul's decisions unfold, his instinctual approach to leadership reveals a shallow heart toward God while maintaining a stubborn outward disposition.  Speaker: Brad Bell

As we trace Saul's calling and early leadership, the tension between his character and responsibility unfolds at a pivotal moment in Israel's history. Through this message, the narrative reveals how faithless action, empowerment, and the lack of cultivation shape the beginning of Saul's reign and impact his place as king. Speaker: Mike Slayden

As we walk through Israel's shift from theocracy to monarchy, Samuel's story is brought into the picture. Through an exploration into 1 Samuel and Deuteronomy, we gain a better perspective as to why the nation of Israel longs for an earthly king and continues to reject God. Speaker: Brad Bell

Before Israel ever had a king, they already had one—God Himself. This message explores the backstory to how God's people moved from living under His rule to demanding a king like the nations around them, and why that choice mattered. In their longing for a king, we're ultimately pointed to the true King—Jesus. Speaker: Mike Slayden

Striving to follow His call for us as a church, our desire is to cultivate faithfulness in each of us while we grow into a deep and abiding relationship with Him and spread His love everywhere we go.Discover where God is leading The Well in this next season, how we plan to faithfully follow Him, how we will intentionally give the first fruits of what we receive to further the gospel reach in our community, and how you can be involved.This new season of Cultivate will once again ask each of us to step out in faith, giving above and beyond, with genuine sacrifice, to respond to the most significant kingdom investment in the history of The Well. This effort demands full participation from our entire church, giving with joy, in a manner pleasing to the Lord – not giving equal gifts but gifts of equal sacrifice. Speaker: Brad Bell

Biblical generosity begins not with money, but with God Himself – a God who is generous by nature and who created the world for His glory and our good. Because everything we have has been entrusted to us by God, we are not owners but stewards who are called to faithfulness, contentment, and trust rather than accumulation. Jesus taught often about money because our use of resources reveals our hearts. Believers are invited to invest their resources in God's work through joyful, intentional, and sacrificial giving, not under compulsion, but as an act of worship and spiritual maturity. At The Well, the ministry and mission of the local church are sustained entirely by the faithful generosity of individuals, handled with integrity and accountability. Generosity becomes a joyful response to grace as we participate in God's ongoing work in our church, our city, and the world. Speaker: Brad Bell

As the early church in Acts started to grow, they were largely focused on four things: teaching, training, equipping, and discipling. As The Well continues to grow, we are focused on these things as well. Our desire is for everyone to allow the gospel to work in them not just at a point in time but also over time. While we deepen and mature into steadfast followers of Jesus, may we be teaching, training, equipping, and discipling others so the church grows not just numerically but also in faithfulness to Him. Speaker: Brad Bell

In Genesis 21, Abraham plants a tamarisk tree that he would never see fully grown in his lifetime. Why would he do such a thing? Because he knew it wasn't about him. He was thinking of the future and about the next generation of people who would benefit from the shade it would provide many years after he was gone. May we continue to be a church that does not forget or forsake the next generation. Rather, let us live in a way that shows we care about those who will live long after we are gone. Speaker: Brad Bell

What does it mean to have the heart of a worshiper? As humans, we often pay attention to outward appearances and behavior. But God is not interested in us checking all the right boxes. God cares about our hearts, and He is honored when our hearts have the right posture, when our hearts are focused on Him, and when our actions are congruent with our worship-filled hearts. Speaker: Mike Slayden

Christmas invites us into the ancient tradition of Advent, a season of anticipation that points to both the birth of Jesus and His promised return. We are reminded that Christmas is more than tradition; it is a divine rescue story. In our brokenness and need, God sent His Son, the light of the world, to bring forgiveness, reconciliation, and new life. As recipients of that grace, we are called to remember Christ's coming and reflect His light together as a community marked by love and hope in a dark world. Speaker: Brad Bell

Throughout the Book of Hebrews, we have seen the supremacy of Jesus Christ over all Old Testament figures and systems. He is revealed as the founder and perfecter of our faith, and He offers us a better way of life. Speaker: Mike Slayden

The central theme of the Book of Hebrews is the supremacy of Jesus Christ over all Old Testament figures and systems. In chapter six, the author warns against spiritual stagnation and raises a pressing question: Can salvation be lost? By allowing Scripture to interpret Scripture, we come to see that salvation does not rest on the strength of one's faith, but on the steadfast assurance found in Christ Himself, the ultimate fulfillment of everything to which the Old Testament pointed.

The Book of Hebrews can be one of the most challenging texts in the New Testament. Its authorship and specific historical context remain uncertain, but its message is clear. Written to a group of early believers tempted to drift away from their faith, Hebrews calls them to hold fast and press on toward Christ.At its core, Hebrews is a powerful declaration of Jesus Christ's supremacy. He is greater than the prophets, greater than Moses, greater than the angels, and greater than the Old Covenant itself. Jesus offers a better hope, a deeper rest, a fuller assurance, and a more enduring faith.This series will explore how Jesus is not just the centerpiece of the New Testament but the fulfillment of everything the Old Testament anticipated. Jesus is not just enough. He is greater. Speaker: Brad Bell

One Sunday a year, we pause and reflect on all that the Lord has done, and look forward to what is to come. There is something here for everyone. Take your next step by joining a group or team today. Speaker: Brad Bell

The Church is a people, not a building. As we examine the early Church, we see what believers are called to do when gathered together. While meeting places, times, and architecture vary, the bedrock of the Church is proclaiming Jesus as Christ, the Son of God.  Speaker: Brad Bell

We each have an individual part to play within the larger body of Christ. Here at The Well, we hope you get connected to a Serve Team where your passions, gifts, and interests align.   Speaker: Brad Bell

We each have an individual part to play within the larger body of Christ. As Christians, we were not only saved from our sin, but we were saved for a greater purpose. Living on purpose happens when we invest our lives eternally according to God's design.  Speaker: Brad Bell

Embracing the gospel happens at a point in time, but also over time. Here at The Well, we learn to walk out this messy process of life together with God, embracing the gospel daily in our choices and actions.   Speaker: Brad Bell
