You Are Not Alone: How the Holy Spirit Guides Us – John 16In Episode 154 of Divine Table Talk, Jamie and Jane continue their journey through the Gospel of John with John 16, where Jesus prepares His disciples for what life will look like after He leaves—and gives them an incredible promise: the Holy Spirit is coming.Jesus tells His disciples that the Spirit of Truth will guide them, teach them, reveal truth, and point them back to Him. What feels like Jesus leaving is actually the beginning of something new: God's presence dwelling within His people.Together, Jamie and Jane unpack what it practically means to be led by the Holy Spirit. How do we recognize His guidance? How do we distinguish His voice from our own thoughts, fears, and desires? And how can we trust His leading when we don't know what's coming next?John 16 also reminds us that following Jesus doesn't mean avoiding difficulty. Jesus tells His disciples plainly that trouble will come—but then gives them a promise we still desperately need today: “Take heart! I have overcome the world.”If you're facing a decision, walking through uncertainty, or simply longing to recognize God's voice more clearly, pull up a chair. You don't have to figure everything out on your own. The Holy Spirit is still guiding.Reflection Question: Where am I trying to figure everything out on my own instead of slowing down and allowing the Holy Spirit to guide me?____________________________________Connect with Jamie:Website: www.jamieklusacek.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/jamieklusacekConnect with Jane:Website: www.janewwilliams.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/janewwilliams

Joy in the Resistance: Loving Jesus When the World Pushes Back – John 15:13–27In Episode 153 of Divine Table Talk, Jamie and Jane continue through John 15:13–27, where Jesus moves from one of His greatest statements about love—“Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one's life for one's friends”—into a difficult truth about what it means to follow Him: not everyone will understand or accept you.Jesus calls His disciples friends, commands them to love one another, and reminds them that they have been chosen to bear lasting fruit. But He also prepares them for resistance, rejection, and persecution.So how do we hold onto joy, love, and faith when following Jesus becomes difficult?Together, Jamie and Jane explore what it means to love sacrificially without needing the approval of the world, how to remain rooted in Christ when your faith is challenged, and the role of the Holy Spirit—the Advocate—who empowers us to testify about Jesus.Following Christ doesn't guarantee an easy road. But Jesus never asks us to walk it alone.This conversation is an invitation to stay rooted in love, remain faithful under pressure, and choose joy even when following Jesus comes with a cost.Reflection Question: Can I remain joyful, loving, and faithful to Jesus even when following Him costs me the approval of others?____________________________________Connect with Jamie:Website: www.jamieklusacek.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/jamieklusacekConnect with Jane:Website: www.janewwilliams.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/janewwilliams

In this message, we'll consider the temptation of the human heart to take something God has made sweet and turn it into something bitter. In doing so, we'll receive the Lord's exhortation to take courage, put our trust in Him, and move forward in the Kingdom work He is calling us to. Scripture: Haggai 2:1-9

Stay Connected: The Vine, the Branches & the Purpose of Pruning – John 15:1–12In Episode 151 of Divine Table Talk, Jamie and Jane dive into one of Jesus' most powerful pictures of our relationship with Him: “I am the vine; you are the branches.”In John 15:1–12, Jesus teaches that a fruitful life doesn't come from striving harder—it comes from abiding deeper. But He also introduces something most of us would rather avoid: pruning.Together, Jamie and Jane explore why God prunes even the branches that are already producing fruit, how seasons of cutting back can actually prepare us for greater growth, and what it practically looks like to remain connected to Jesus when life feels uncomfortable or uncertain.What if the thing God is removing isn't punishment? What if it's preparation?Jesus' invitation is simple: Remain in Me. Because apart from Him we can do nothing, but connected to the Vine, our lives can produce the kind of lasting fruit God created us to bear.And at the center of it all is love—remaining in His love and learning to love others as He has loved us.Reflection Question: What if the thing I've been asking God to restore is actually something He's pruning so I can grow?____________________________________Connect with Jamie:Website: www.jamieklusacek.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/jamieklusacekConnect with Jane:Website: www.janewwilliams.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/janewwilliams

Peace the World Can't Give: The Promise of the Holy Spirit – John 14:15–31 In Episode 150 of Divine Table Talk, Jamie and Jane finish John 14 with one of Jesus' greatest promises: we will never have to walk alone. As Jesus prepares His disciples for His departure, He promises the coming of the Holy Spirit—the Advocate, Helper, and Teacher who will remain with them and remind them of everything Jesus has taught. Then, in the middle of uncertainty about what comes next, Jesus gives them something the world cannot manufacture: His peace. Together, Jamie and Jane explore what it means to recognize the presence of the Holy Spirit in our everyday lives, how love for Jesus shapes our obedience, and the difference between temporary peace based on circumstances and the lasting peace that comes from Christ. Jesus never promised His followers a life without trouble, questions, or uncertainty. He promised something better: His presence in the middle of it. If your heart has been anxious, overwhelmed, or searching for peace, pull up a chair. John 14 reminds us that we have a Helper, we have His presence, and we have a peace the world cannot give. Reflection Question: Am I looking to my circumstances to give me peace—or am I learning to receive the peace Jesus has already given me? ____________________________________ Connect with Jamie: Website: www.jamieklusacek.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jamieklusacek Connect with Jane: Website: www.janewwilliams.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/janewwilliams

Equip 2026 | Greater Things: What Jesus Promised You Could Do | Tyler Gillit

Faithfulness in Small Things Leads to Greater ThingsLuke 16:10 The one who is faithful in a very little is also faithful in much, and the one who is dishonest in a very little is also dishonest in much. The point of the statement "faithful in a very little" is that character is shown in how little things are treated. One of the greatest misconceptions people have about purpose is that they believe they have to do something big in order to matter. So they wait. Join Life's Word Academy: https://tinyurl.com/lifeswordacademyAccept Jesus today. https://youtube.com/shorts/bIwAUlz7Kg4?si=BNOhv44iLWIR4eVJIf you would like to accept Jesus into your heart today, pray this simple prayer:****God, I have sinned against You. I believe that Jesus is Your Son, who died and rose for my sake. I ask you to forgive me for my sin. I place my trust in You for salvation. I receive you as my Lord and Savior. In Jesus' name, I am forgiven! Amen!****Congratulations! You are now a child of the Most High. John 1:12 says, "But to all who did receive him, who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God."****If you just prayed this prayer to receive Jesus Christ as your Savior, I welcome you to the family of God.

Ask, Believe, Dream Bigger: The Greater Things Jesus Promised – John 14:12–14 In Episode 149 of Divine Table Talk, Jamie and Jane slow down and dive into just three powerful verses—John 14:12–14—where Jesus makes an astonishing promise about faith, prayer, and the “greater works” His followers will do. What did Jesus mean when He said, “Whoever believes in me will do the works I have been doing, and they will do even greater things than these”? And what do we do with His invitation to “ask me for anything in my name”? Together, Jamie and Jane explore the difference between dreaming with God and simply asking Him to bless our plans. They talk about bold prayers, surrendered dreams, expectations, and what it means to believe that God can accomplish more through our lives than we could ever manufacture on our own. Maybe we've been praying too safely. Maybe we've allowed disappointment to shrink what we're willing to ask God for. John 14 invites us to believe again, ask boldly, dream with God—and remember that ultimately, it is all for the glory of the Father. Reflection Question: Have I allowed fear, disappointment, or past unanswered prayers to make my prayers smaller—and what might God be inviting me to ask Him for again? ____________________________________ Connect with Jamie: Website: www.jamieklusacek.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jamieklusacek Connect with Jane: Website: www.janewwilliams.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/janewwilliams

This week, Pastor Chris continued our Greater Things series with a powerful teaching about generosity that leaves a legacy. Generational Generosity is the call to faithfully pass on a legacy of worship, obedience, and wholehearted giving from one generation to the next. Rooted in God's enduring goodness and modeled by leaders like David, it begins with God's vision, flows from willing hearts, and recognizes that everything we have ultimately belongs to Him. When leaders go first and God's people give joyfully and obediently, they leave behind not just resources, but a lasting, godly legacy for their children.

Pastor David brings a challenging message about the Church responding to the Great Commission in Matthew 28. In Week 3 of Greater Things casting vision for the future of Beach Church we are called to renew our understanding of the gospel and partner with God to purse the mission are at the forefront of our vision for 2026 and beyond.
