What are you building today that you may never fully enjoy?In this Father's Day message, John Gunter examines the story of Nehemiah and the rebuilding of Jerusalem's walls. Through opposition, weariness, and discouragement, God's people discovered that the wall itself was never the ultimate goal. The goal was renewal, worship, and preparing a future they might never fully experience.This sermon reminds us that faithful people build with future generations in mind. They persevere through ordinary days, trust God through difficult seasons, and keep moving forward even when they feel tired.Key Themes: Building for future generations  Persevering when you feel worn out  Why discouragement isn't defeat  The importance of ordinary faithfulness  Remembering that the Lord is great and awesome 

What do you do with the moments you never want to forget?In this special fifth anniversary message, John Gunter reflects on the story of Joshua 4 and God's command to Israel to build a memorial of stones after crossing the Jordan River. Those stones were not trophies celebrating human achievement. They were testimonies pointing future generations to the faithfulness of God.Looking back over five years of Eagle Community Church of Christ, this sermon celebrates God's provision through seasons of uncertainty, challenge, sacrifice, and growth. Through every obstacle, God has continued to bless His people and open doors for ministry.But this message is about more than the past. It is a call to build for the future. Just as Israel built stones for the next generation, believers today are called to leave behind a testimony of faith that others can follow.Key Themes: Remembering God's faithfulness through difficult seasons  Building a testimony for future generations  Unity is worth protecting and pursuing  Every believer has a place and purpose in God's family  The church grows when ordinary people become fully engaged

Is God really near, or does He just feel far away?In the final message of the God Revealed series, John Gunter addresses a struggle many believers quietly carry. We know God is real. We know He is powerful. Yet there are seasons when He feels distant.Drawing from Acts 17, this sermon examines Paul's message to the Athenians and their altar to an unknown god. Paul reveals a God who cannot be contained by temples, controlled by human systems, or kept at a distance. He is the God who gives life, breath, and everything else. He is the God in whom we live and move and have our being.This message reminds us that God's nearness is not dependent on our feelings. He is present in worship, present in suffering, present in ordinary days, and present in every season of life. The question is not whether God is near. The question is whether we are drawing near to Him.Key Themes: God cannot be confined to the boxes we create  God is present in every part of life, not just spiritual moments  We often treat God as distant when Scripture says He is near  God's nearness is an invitation to relationship  Drawing near to God changes how we live every day 

Courage is not the absence of fear. It is faith that moves forward anyway.In this message, Tyler Prothro examines the biblical foundation of courage and challenges believers to stand strong when faith is tested. Through the examples of Joshua, David, Peter, and the apostles, we see that courage is not found in self-confidence or favorable circumstances. It is found in the presence of God.Whether facing uncertainty, temptation, health struggles, opposition, or difficult decisions, Christians are called to trust God and move forward in obedience. Biblical faith is not passive. It responds. It acts. And it believes that God is greater than every obstacle we face.This sermon reminds us that courage grows when we focus less on our fears and more on God's faithfulness, His promises, and the eternal hope we have through Christ.Key Themes: Courage begins with God's presence  Faith chooses trust over fear  Obedience is the natural response of faith  Eternal hope strengthens present courage  God is greater than every giant we face 

Can you still follow Jesus while wrestling with doubt?In this honest and compassionate message, Heath McCartney explores the tension many believers quietly carry between faith and skepticism. Through the story of Thomas and the other apostles, we see that doubt was present even among those who walked closely with Jesus.This sermon reminds us that Jesus did not reject doubters. He welcomed them. He walked patiently with them, reassured them, and continued calling them to follow Him. Faith was never about achieving perfect certainty. It was always about trusting God, even when questions remain.Heath also addresses the relationship between faith and science, the pressure many Christians feel to hide their doubts, and the freedom that comes from realizing that God's love is not dependent on flawless belief. Even faith as small as a mustard seed matters when it is placed in a faithful God.Key Themes: Doubt does not disqualify you from following Jesus  Thomas and the apostles wrestled with uncertainty  Faith grows through relationship, not performance  Small faith in a big God is enough  God welcomes skeptics, cynics, and questioners 

Culture will always try to tell you who you are. Faith reminds you who you belong to.In this Senior Sunday message, John Gunter explores Daniel chapter 1 and the story of a young man taken from everything familiar and placed into a culture determined to reshape him. Babylon changed Daniel's environment, education, language, and even his name. Yet Daniel refused to let Babylon define his identity.This sermon speaks powerfully to graduates stepping into independence and transition, but it also reaches every believer navigating pressure from culture, work, relationships, and everyday life. Faith cannot remain something borrowed from parents, family, or routine. At some point, it must become personal.Through Daniel's example, this message reminds us that spiritual drift rarely happens all at once. It often begins with small compromises and gradual distance from the things that keep us anchored in God. But when identity is rooted in Christ before the storm comes, faith can remain steady even in difficult environments.Key Themes: Culture constantly pressures us to change identity  Faith must become personal to survive transition  Small compromises often lead to spiritual drift  Christian community helps anchor us in difficult seasons  God remains faithful even in unfamiliar places

God's delay is not weakness. It is mercy.In this message, John Gunter continues the God Revealed series by focusing on the patience of God. Many people ask why evil continues, why sin seems unchecked, or why judgment has not yet come. Scripture gives a surprising answer. God is patient.Through 2 Peter chapter 3, this sermon explains that God's patience is intentional. He is not ignoring sin, nor is He slow to act. Instead, He is giving people time to repent and return to Him. The delay of consequences is not proof that everything is okay. It is evidence of God's mercy and kindness.This message also warns about the danger of presuming on God's patience. We often convince ourselves there will always be more time. Yet Scripture reminds us that life moves quickly, judgment is real, and God's patience is meant to lead us toward transformation now, not later.Key Themes: God's patience flows from His desire for repentance  Delayed judgment does not mean sin is ignored  Mercy removes judgment while patience delays it  Assuming we always have more time is spiritually dangerous  God's kindness is meant to draw us back to Him 

God does not change, even when everything else does.In this message, John Gunter continues the God Revealed series by focusing on the faithfulness of God. Through Lamentations chapter 3, we are reminded that faith is not built on circumstances. It is built on who God is.Even in moments of deep pain, loss, and uncertainty, the writer chooses to remember. God's love never ceases. His mercies are new every morning. His faithfulness remains steady.This sermon challenges us to shift from reacting to our situation to remembering God's character. While people fail and plans fall apart, God does not lie, does not change, and does not abandon His people. Even when we are weak or inconsistent, He remains faithful.Key Themes: Faith is choosing to remember who God is  God's faithfulness is not based on our circumstances  We often project our inconsistency onto God  God remains faithful even when we struggle  Trusting God brings stability in unstable seasons

God does not give us what we deserve. He gives us mercy.In this message, John Gunter continues the God Revealed series by exploring the mercy of God. While we often think in terms of fairness and what we deserve, Scripture reveals something greater. God is merciful, gracious, slow to anger, and full of steadfast love.Through passages like Exodus 34 and the story of the prodigal son, we see a God who does not wait for perfection. He runs toward those who turn back to Him. He restores what was broken and offers forgiveness that is not earned.This sermon also reminds us that God's mercy is not a one time act. His mercies are new every morning. Because of Jesus, we can approach God with confidence, knowing He understands our struggles and meets us with grace.Key Themes: God's mercy flows from His character, not our performance  We often want justice for others and mercy for ourselves  The prodigal son reveals the heart of God toward sinners  Mercy is renewed daily, not limited by our failures  True response to mercy is a transformed life

We all want justice. Until it applies to us.In this message, John Gunter continues the God Revealed series by exploring what it means for God to be just. Scripture makes it clear that all have sinned and fall short of God's glory. That reality creates a tension. If God is truly just, sin must be addressed. It cannot be ignored or minimized.This sermon walks through Romans chapter 3 to show how God resolves that tension. Through Jesus, God remains just while also justifying those who place their faith in Him. The cross is not a dismissal of sin. It is the full payment for it.This message calls us to move beyond comparison and excuses. Instead of measuring ourselves against others, we are invited to trust in God's grace, take sin seriously, and live transformed lives grounded in faith.Key Themes: All people share the same condition of sin  God's justice requires that sin be dealt with  Grace is a gift, not something we earn  Faith is trust that leads to transformation  The cross is where justice and mercy meet 

Everything changes when you see God for who He truly is.In this first sermon of the God Revealed series, John Gunter walks through Isaiah chapter 6 and the overwhelming vision of God's holiness. Surrounded by worship and glory, Isaiah is confronted with a reality that reshapes everything. God is not a better version of us. He is completely set apart.This message highlights how easy it is to reshape God into something more comfortable or manageable. Yet when we truly see His holiness, comparison disappears and clarity takes its place. We begin to understand our own need for grace.The good news is that God does not reveal sin to destroy us. He reveals it so He can cleanse us. As Isaiah confesses his unworthiness, God responds with forgiveness and restoration. That same invitation stands today.Key Themes: God is completely holy and set apart  Seeing God clearly changes how we see ourselves  Sin cannot be minimized in the presence of holiness  God provides cleansing where there is confession  True understanding of God leads to a transformed life 

Sometimes what feels like the end is where God begins something new.In this Easter message, John Gunter explores the events of John chapter 20 and the first moments after the resurrection. Mary Magdalene arrives at the tomb expecting to grieve, not to celebrate. The disciples struggle to understand what they are seeing. Nothing makes sense at first.Yet everything changes when Jesus speaks her name.This sermon highlights how the resurrection does more than prove a moment in history. It transforms what is possible in our lives today. Because Jesus is alive, forgiveness is real, hope is alive, and change is possible. Even in moments of confusion, grief, or doubt, God is still at work.Key Themes: God works through unexpected outcomes  Faith is not just knowing about Jesus but knowing He knows you  The resurrection is the foundation of real hope  Because Jesus lives, change is still possible 

Following Jesus was never meant to stop at belief. It was always meant to move into mission.In this closing sermon of the Encounters with Christ series, John Gunter explores what happens after people meet Jesus. Looking at John 20 and Luke 24, we find disciples hiding behind locked doors, weighed down by fear and uncertainty. We also find travelers on the road to Emmaus, disappointed that life had not gone as they had hoped.Into both stories, Jesus comes near.He speaks peace before they fix their fear. He walks with them before they understand what He is doing. Then He sends them out with purpose and with the gift of the Holy Spirit. This message calls us to live as people who are not just changed, but sent.Key Themes:Jesus meets us in fear and uncertaintyPeace comes before clarityDisappointment does not mean God is absentThose who encounter Jesus are sent into the world with purpose

Resistance often looks like control, pride, or protecting our image. Jesus meets us there.In this message, John Gunter walks through the story of Zacchaeus, a chief tax collector who was wealthy but isolated. Though rejected by others, Zacchaeus was also holding onto a life shaped by power and gain. Yet his curiosity led him to seek Jesus, and in a moment that defied cultural expectations, Jesus called him by name and chose to stay at his house.This encounter reveals that transformation does not begin with perfection. It begins with surrender. Zacchaeus responds not because he was forced, but because his heart was changed in the presence of Christ.This sermon also challenges the listener to consider the posture of the crowd. While Zacchaeus moves toward Jesus, others resist through judgment and pride. The question becomes personal. Are we drawing near, or are we holding back?Key Themes:The danger of pride and protecting our imageJesus seeks those others have written offTrue change flows from an encounter with ChristGrace invites surrender, not performance

Long suffering can wear down even the strongest faith. Jesus meets us there.In this message, John Gunter explores the story of the woman who had been suffering for twelve years. Her condition left her isolated, exhausted, and without answers. Yet in a moment of hope and desperation, she reaches out to Jesus and experiences immediate healing.This sermon highlights the power of faith, even when it is small. It also exposes the weight of shame and how it keeps people from stepping toward Christ. Jesus does not respond with rejection. He responds with compassion, calling her daughter and restoring both her health and her identity.Through this encounter and the surrounding story of Jairus' daughter, we are reminded that Jesus has power over both long suffering and even death itself.Key Themes:Faith does not have to be perfect to be powerfulShame loses its power when it is brought into the lightYou can be near Jesus and still miss a true encounterGod is still working even when the answer feels delayed

Shame tells you that you are unworthy. Jesus tells you to stand up and walk free.In this message, John Gunter explores the encounter between Jesus and the woman caught in adultery. Publicly exposed and facing condemnation, she stands in the center of accusation. The religious leaders demand judgment. Jesus responds with wisdom, truth, and mercy.This sermon addresses the weight of shame and the danger of selective judgment. While Scripture is clear about sin, it is equally clear about grace. Jesus does not ignore wrongdoing, but He refuses to weaponize it. Instead, He offers forgiveness and calls us into a transformed life.Key Themes:The hypocrisy of selective outrageThe difference between condemnation and convictionThe freedom found in Christ's mercyLiving transformed instead of trapped in shame

Being religious is not the same as being transformed.In this message, John Gunter explores the encounter between Jesus and Nicodemus in John chapter 3. Nicodemus represents the curious, the moral, and the spiritually serious. Yet Jesus confronts him with a truth that cuts through effort and heritage. Unless one is born from above, he cannot enter the kingdom of God.This sermon reminds us that salvation is not inherited, achieved, or reasoned into existence. It is received. God gives a new heart. The Spirit produces life. The invitation is not to control the process but to surrender to it.Key Themes:The difference between curiosity and transformationThe limits of religious effortThe promise of a new heart and new SpiritTrusting God rather than trusting our own systems

Something happens when we truly encounter Jesus.In this first sermon of the Encounters with Christ series, John Gunter explores John chapter 6 and the feeding of the crowd. The people follow Jesus because they were filled physically. Jesus calls them to something deeper. He points them beyond temporary provision and declares Himself to be the Bread of Life.This message invites us to look honestly at our own hearts. Are we seeking Jesus for what we can receive, or are we willing to be transformed by who He is? God does not merely satisfy surface-level needs. He offers life, renewal, and eternal hope.Key Themes:The difference between provision and transformationThe danger of chasing temporary satisfactionJesus as the true Bread of LifeA call to respond personally to Christ

Faith does not require full understanding. It requires trust.In this final sermon of the Not Alone series, John Gunter reflects on Psalm 131 and the posture of quiet, humble trust before God. Life often leaves us with unanswered questions and unresolved tension. Scripture does not promise clarity in every season, but it does promise God's presence.This message calls listeners to release pride, ambition, and the burden of control. Trust is not passivity. It is an active choice to place our lives in the hands of a faithful God who sees what we cannot and works in ways we do not expect.Key Themes:Letting go of the need to control outcomesLearning to quiet the soul in God's presenceTrusting God when clarity is missingResting in the promises of a faithful Lord

God isn't just giving you a new word for this year. He is inviting you into a new way of living. In this message, “A New Thing: A New Plan,” we wrap up our A New Thing series across our Baytown, Crosby, and La Porte campuses and lean into this truth: A New Thing requires a New Plan. Most people do not miss their goals because they do not want change. They miss them because they never decide how that change will happen. Good intentions are common. Intentional living is rare. From Isaiah 43, we see that God is already doing a new thing, but we have a part to play. We do not drift into spiritual maturity, financial freedom, or healthy relationships. We train for it. In this message you will learn why God is a planner and why you should be too, the difference between trying and training in your faith, how to name the life you are training for by starting with identity, how to identify the barriers holding you back, and how to choose simple, God-honoring practices in your spiritual, financial, and relational life. If you are tired of trying harder and ready to start training with purpose, this message will help you build a God-centered plan for your next season.

You were never expected to change by your own strength. God takes responsibility for the transformation.In this week's message, John Gunter reminds us that God promised to remove hearts of stone and give hearts of flesh. This is not a demand to perform. It is an invitation to surrender. Whether from Ezekiel or Psalm 51, Scripture shows that change starts when we step aside and allow God to do what only He can. His Spirit lives in us. His grace covers us. And His power transforms us.Key Themes:Transformation is God's work, not oursThe Spirit of God lives in us and gives us freedomEvery believer is a work in progress and a new creationThere is no sin too great for God's mercy

Life sometimes pauses. Church may cancel. Plans shift. But God does not.In this Week 4 message from the Not Alone series, John Gunter delivers a timely reminder from his office during a winter storm. Drawing from passages like John 14, Romans 8, and Psalm 46, this sermon encourages listeners to trust in the presence of God when things feel uncertain, disconnected, or overwhelming. Even in seasons of isolation, God is still faithful, still close, and still working in our lives.Key Points:God's promises do not pause with our circumstancesThe Spirit intercedes for us even when we cannot find the wordsGod's presence gives us peace, even when outcomes are uncertainWe are never abandoned, never alone

You were never asked to be strong enough. You were asked to trust the One who is.In this third message in the Not Alone series, John Gunter teaches what it means to live with the Spirit of God. We are not called to control everything or act like we have all the answers. Instead, we are invited to lean fully into God's presence, admit our need, and allow His Spirit to intercede when we are weak, tired, or unsure what to pray.Key Themes:The Spirit prays for us when we cannot find the words (Romans 8)God's power is made perfect in our weakness (2 Corinthians 12)Even youths grow weary, but those who wait on the Lord renew their strength (Isaiah 40)We do not have to be alone, and we do not have to pretend to be strong

You are not on your own. God's presence is closer than you think.In this first message from the Not Alone series, John Gunter begins the new year by reminding us that God's presence is not a distant idea. It is a daily reality. Through the promise of the Holy Spirit in John 14 and the power of God's indwelling in Romans 8, we learn to walk with peace, even in seasons of uncertainty.Key Takeaways:God's plan has always been to dwell with His peopleThe Spirit of God living in you is the same Spirit that raised Christ from the deadYou do not have to understand everything to trust the One who never leaves

God did not stay distant from a broken world. He entered it.In this Christmas message, John Gunter takes us through Scripture to show that love is not abstract or selective. God's love is active, consistent, and always draws near. From John 3:16 to Luke 2 and Romans 5, we are reminded that while we were still sinners, Christ came for us. And if He came that far for us, how can we not extend that same love to others?Key Takeaways:Love does not begin with us. It begins with GodReal love is not earned. It is givenJesus came for the broken, the poor, and the overlookedThe church should lead the world in loving others, even when we do not agree

Joy that lasts is not based on feelings. It is based on a faithful God.In this encouraging Christmas-season message, John Gunter invites us to reflect on what truly brings joy. From John 15 and Romans 8 to Isaiah 35, we are reminded that joy is not the absence of sorrow. It is the presence of Christ. Real joy is rooted in obedience, endurance, and confidence that nothing can separate us from the love of God.Key Takeaways:Fleeting happiness rises and falls with circumstancesEnduring joy is found in walking closely with ChristObedience leads to alignment, and alignment leads to joy

When Jesus had every right to demand, He chose to kneel and serve.In this closing message of the Made to Serve series, John Gunter teaches from John 13, reminding us that a gospel-shaped life looks like a towel and a basin, not a title and a throne. If you want to reflect Jesus, you do not wait to be asked. You simply serve where you are. This message calls the church to return to the example of our Lord, who made humility the mark of greatness.Key Takeaways:Serving others is not beneath us. It is the heart of ChristHumility is not thinking less of yourself. It is thinking of yourself lessWe each have a place to serve. Start where you are and watch what God does

What does it look like to live a life shaped by the gospel, not just saved by it?In this first message of the Made to Serve series, John Gunter preaches from Philippians 1 and 2, calling the church to unity, humility, and Christlike service. This message challenges listeners to look beyond personal comfort and embrace the mindset of Jesus, who emptied himself, became a servant, and gave his life as an example for us to follow.Key Takeaways:Unity is not about agreeing on everything. It is about agreeing on the most important thingHumility lifts others up instead of lifting yourself upA gospel-shaped life reflects Jesus in relationships, service, and sacrifice

Prayer is not a reaction. It is preparation.In this final message of the Prepared series, John Gunter teaches from James 5 about how prayer and perseverance go hand in hand.
