The good news about losing your life. A sermon on Matthew 16:21-28 but Rev. Samantha Beach Kiley.
This week, Pastor Mike Skedeleski continues our series through the book of Matthew. In a world that constantly encourages us to love only those who love us back and to hold onto personal animosity, Jesus introduces a Kingdom standard that turns cultural norms upside down. What if the true test of our faith isn't how we treat our friends but how we respond to the very people who offend, hurt, or persecute us? Keeping the cross in mind, we discover that Jesus never asks us to do anything He didn't live out first. Through His humble and gracious example at Calvary, we see what it means to choose a posture of prayer over payback, allowing God's unearned grace and love to flow to everyone around us. By diving deeper into what it means to love our enemies and pray for their blessing, we learn how our everyday actions can reflect the very character and spiritual DNA of our Father in Heaven. When we stop letting our flesh and the world dictate our reactions and instead let Christ's love lead our hearts, our lives become living evidence of His grace.
Therefore, go...

Relationships have the potential to bring life's greatest joys but they can also bring some of the deepest pain. How do we navigate these everyday connections in a world that tells us to look out for number one? In this message by Pastor Paul Gates, we dive back into Jesus' Sermon on the Mount. Paul reveals how we can deploy the ultimate TASK Force in our daily lives—anchored in Trust, Actions, Serving, and Kindness. Together, we unpack what it truly means to live out counter-cultural love in our relationships. From learning why your character matters far more than simple words, to understanding the surprising historical context behind going the extra mile, Jesus offers us a radical alternative to revenge and retaliation. When we allow God's word, rather than culture or our fleeting emotions, to influence how we respond to others, we disarm conflict and glorify God. Our relationships are transformed from the inside out when we stop letting the world drive our behavior and instead allow Jesus to lead us. Join us as we learn how applying God's word can help us to love generously, serve selflessly, and to bring real hope to the people around you!
The power of sin does not overpower the love of God.
Matthew 21 opens with Jesus's Triumphal Entry into Jerusalem—his coronation as King. Pastor Karl unpacks why this moment was unlike any earthly coronation: a king who arrived not on a warhorse but on a humble donkey, fulfilling prophecies spoken generations earlier through Isaiah, Zechariah, and Daniel. As King, Jesus fulfills God's mission, exercises God's authority, restores proper worship according to God's Word, and extends God's compassion. From the crowds shouting "Hosanna" to Jesus clearing the temple of corruption, this passage reveals a King who demands total allegiance while never withholding compassion from those who come to Him in need.

It was His love that held Him to the cross.

What does it look like to live with faithfulness that goes deeper than our actions and reaches into our hearts? In this message, Pastor Paul Gates explores Jesus' words in Matthew 5:27–30, challenging us to take an honest look at the ways sin can quietly shape our thoughts, desires, and relationships. As we consider God's faithfulness, we're invited to protect what matters most and take sin seriously. This is not a message about our faithfulness, it's about His. Our faithfulness often is broken and imperfect, but God's faithfulness is always full, complete, and unwavering. As we learn to recognize temptation, establish healthy boundaries, and invite accountability into our lives, we discover that God is faithful to meet us in our struggles and provide a way forward. What would it look like to be completely full of Him? Join us as we discover how God's perfect faithfulness becomes the model for our own, filling our lives with His Spirit, His grace, His goodness, and His sacrificial love.

The Gospel of Matthew was written by an eye-witness of Jesus the Christ - what He did, what He taught, the miracles He performed, the lives He transformed, and how people responded to Him. It was originally written to Jews who were eagerly looking forward to the arrival of their promised anointed Messiah.

Marriage is more than a legal agreement. It is a sacred covenant designed by God to reflect His faithful love towards His people. In this message, Pastor Mike Skedeleski explores Jesus' teaching in Matthew 5:31–32, inviting us to rediscover God's original design for marriage and why His heart has always been for lifelong faithfulness, grace, and restoration. Together, we wrestle with difficult questions surrounding divorce, brokenness, and commitment. Rather than offering condemnation, Jesus points us to the deeper condition of the heart while reminding us that His grace is greater than our failures. Whether we have experienced the pain of a broken relationship or are seeking to strengthen the one that we have, we can find hope in the God who restores and makes all things new. Join us as we discover how God's Divine Design for marriage ultimately points us to the unwavering love of Christ, the One who never leaves us, never forsakes us, and faithfully keeps His covenant of love with us.

The Reason Jesus Teaches In Parables - Gospel of Matthew: Chapter 13:1-23 - 2026 by Shawn Ozbun
Judas walked with Jesus, saw the miracles, held His trust — and still missed His heart.
Lesson 16 - The King's Mission Accomplished, His Commission DeliveredMatthew 27:1—28:20. The promised Messiah stood silent before His accusers. The Suffering Servant fully drained the cup He'd accepted in Gethsemane; and on Calvary's cross, the true Passover Lamb yielded up His Spirit. Three days later He rose as the Promised King, victorious over death. Then He told His disciples to take everything He had taught them into the world and make disciples everywhere. His authority would empower them, and His presence would sustain them. His mission was accomplished - theirs had just begun.To learn more about Michele or to support this international ministry please visit https://intheword.com

Through His teaching, we see that anger, bitterness, and unforgiveness can grow unnoticed. That's when we need God redemptive love. His desire is to transform us from the inside out.

As we learn to exchange hostility for grace, we begin to reflect the love and mercy that Jesus has first shown us. Whether you're carrying hurt, struggling to forgive or ask for forgiveness, or simply longing to grow closer to Jesus, this message offers hope as Jesus shows us a better way. Join us as we discover how the gospel reshapes our hearts, restores our relationships, and leads us into a life of genuine worship and lasting peace.

Jordan Brown links the passover meal and communion to explain how Christ is revealed as our enduring sacrifice.
Lesson 15 - The End Draws NearMatthew 25:14—26:75. Matthew records many final moments in these last chapters. Final words about Christ's coming and final calls to faithfulness, a final act of loving devotion, the final Passover meal. He recounts the betrayal of one disciple, the public failure of another and the scattering of all the rest. And for the Lord Himself, there is the final surrender in Gethsemane, accepting the cup of suffering that would result in His death for all mankind. Everything has been made ready. The end truly is in sight.To learn more about Michele or to support this international ministry please visit https://intheword.com
Life can feel a lot like hiking some of the narrow and rugged trails here in Hawaiʻi. Paths that wind along steep ridges and sharp drop-offs, where one wrong move could mean injury or certain death. On our own, it is easy to lose our footing and to fall on one side to the valley of lawlessness or on the other side to self-righteousness. But God, through the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus, gave us a new way forward. And that way is to walk by faith in His righteousness. The Law shows us the trail we cannot perfectly walk on our own. But God's Word is like a trusted trail guide, revealing His love, His holiness, and our deep need for His grace. As we walk with and follow Him, we begin to see that every command, every warning, and every promise is meant to keep us on the path that leads to life and to point us back to Jesus, the One who fulfills it all. Whether you're new to faith, wrestling with questions, or seeking to grow deeper in your walk with Jesus, Sterling Higa leaves us with a challenge and hope. Join us as we learn what it means to trust Christ as our righteousness, follow Him step by step through the power of the Holy Spirit, and lovingly guard and share the truth of His Word with those around us.
Ray Sanchez shares how the Passion of Christ reaches us in a personal way.
Lesson 14 - From Hypocrisy to Readiness - The Final TeachingMatthew 23:1—25:13. Jesus pronounces His final woes on the Pharisees, even releasing them to complete the murderous sins of their fathers. He casts one last heartbreaking look at Jerusalem, weeping for what she had rejected and what awaited her. And then He admonishes His disciples, stunned by His words about the end of the age, to watch and wait. He tells them what to expect and how to handle it, and calls them to be wise, faithful servants. The next few days would put that to the test.To learn more about Michele or to support this international ministry please visit https://intheword.com
What does it mean to be salt and light? In this message, Pastor Mike Skedeleski reminds us that these are not goals we strive to achieve someday, but declarations of who we already are in Christ. As Jesus continues His Sermon on the Mount, we discover that our identity as citizens of God's Kingdom carries both purpose and responsibility in a world longing for hope, truth, and direction. Through the powerful images of salt and light, we are invited to see how God uses ordinary people to make an extraordinary impact. We are called to preserve what is good, shine truth into dark places, and reflect the love and grace that we have received from Him. Rather than blending into the culture around us, Jesus encourages us to live with conviction, compassion, and courage to shine His light wherever He has placed us. Join us as we explore how our everyday lives can point others to Christ. Whether at home, at work, online, or in our communities, we are reminded that God has uniquely positioned each of us to influence the world around us. As we embrace our identity in Him, we become living testimonies that draw others toward the hope, life, and light found in Jesus.
Lesson 13 - The King is TestedMatthew 21:23 — 22:46. The interrogators lined up like advancing troops — Pharisees, Sadducees, Herodians, experts in the Law — firing their trick questions and “gotcha” scenarios to trap Jesus in His words and have Him arrested. His answers astounded everyone in their clarity and their authority. No one could offer a word of refutation; and at the end of the day, no one dared ask any more questions. The examination was over. He was who He said He was. The Passover Lamb had been found faultless and was ready to be offered.To learn more about Michele or to support this international ministry please visit https://intheword.com

What if one of the clearest signs that we belong to Jesus is not comfort but opposition? In this message by Pastor Paul Gates, we continue our journey through the Beatitudes and discover the surprising blessing Jesus speaks over those who are persecuted for righteousness' sake. Instead of being viewed as a sign that God has abandoned us, these moments can become powerful reminders that we belong to His Kingdom and are walking in His ways. Pastor Paul encourages us with the bold faith of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. Through their courage, we are reminded that God is present with His people in persecution to strengthen them and sustain them. Join us as we explore how joy can coexist with sorrow and how the promise of the Kingdom of God gives us the courage to stand firm. No matter what challenges we face, we are invited to trust the One who stands by our side in the fire and promises a reward that can never be taken away.
