Helmut Hensel from Athletes in Action unpacks the power and beauty of God's love in our third week of Advent.

Joy doesn't ignore brokenness—it meets us in it.This week, Pastor Ken walks through Isaiah 61 to remind us that real joy isn't rooted in ideal circumstances, but in the promise of a Messiah who binds up the brokenhearted and brings beauty from ashes. Whether you're feeling hopeful, weary, or somewhere in between, this message invites you to rediscover joy that lasts.

In this Advent Week 2 message on Peace, Pastor Ken shows how the peace God offers isn't the absence of conflict but the presence of a Savior who steps into our chaos. Drawing from Isaiah's promise of the coming Prince of Peace, we're invited to experience a peace that steadies our hearts, restores our relationships, and anchors us in God's unshakable kingdom. Nick Schwartz joins the conversation and talks about his work bringing clean water to broken spaces in the world.https://kindhumanfoundation.com/

In this Advent Week 1 message on Hope, Pastor Ken reminds us that the hope we long for isn't found in circumstances but in the promised Light spoken of in Isaiah. As Israel waited in darkness for a Savior, we learn how to anchor our own waiting in the faithful God who still breaks through with hope today.

Discipline isn't about punishment—it's about love that refuses to let us stay the same. In this message, Pastor Ken explores how God's discipline is an expression of His care, shaping us into who we were created to be. When we understand discipline through the lens of love, obedience becomes an invitation to growth, not a burden to endure.

In a world full of parenting strategies, Scripture calls parents to something deeper: shepherding hearts toward the Lord. From setting boundaries to understanding each child's unique needs, this sermon invites us to create homes where Christ-centered growth can flourish—no matter our children's age.
