Ever wonder what you were really made for? You weren't created to build your own empire- you were made to partner with God in building His Kingdom. In this message, we explore how your God-given identity as an image bearer shapes your purpose, and why everyday obedience matters more than you think.

Bryan Vincent | Gospel-Motivated Serving by Hope Community Church, Willow Grove

In a culture that urges us to define ourselves by what we do, what we have, or how we feel, it's easy to lose sight of who we truly are. This message confronts the identity crisis many of us carry by tracing it back to the root- how sin distorts, culture confuses, and God clarifies who we were always meant to be: His image bearers.

The birth of a child is a time for excitement, whether you are the parent, sibling, grandparent, aunt/uncle, cousin, or friend. Under no circumstance should a parent ever name their child “No Glory.” But that's exactly what Ichabod means. Why would his mother choose such a name? And how could this possibly be connected to the birth of another son, who himself was destined for (no) glory?

Bryan Vincent | Gospel-Motivated Giving by Hope Community Church, Willow Grove

Buried within the Old Testament is the story of a woman who drove a tent peg through the temple of an army commander. What kind of religious text is this? How could one scrape together morality from such a biblical passage? What if it's not about religion nor morality but instead about preaching the gospel more than 1,000 years prior to the death of Christ?

Bryan Vincent | Victory Over Death by Hope Community Church, Willow Grove

Have you forgotten what grace rescued you from—and what it calls you to? In this message, Clay unpacks Titus 3 to help us remember the transforming power of the Gospel and how it compels us to live lives marked by humility, kindness, and hope in a fractured world.

When Jesus is transfigured on the mountain, Peter does what we all do: he scrambles to preserve the moment & stay on top. But the voice from the cloud doesn't invite Peter to build something; it calls him to listen. In a world chasing curated wellness and manufactured peace, the Transfiguration confronts our illusion of control and reveals a Savior who walks down the mountain into our darkness to bring us into lasting light.

Gary Shogren | The Resurrection Body by Hope Community Church, Willow Grove

An Old Testament figure named Naaman appeared to have it all––riches, power, favor. But he encountered a problem he couldn't fix. And through his story we see how God often operates in unexpected or (from a worldly perspective) upside-down ways. Would Naaman (and will we) trust in the solution God offers?

Gary Shogren | The Resurrection Body by Hope Community Church, Willow Grove

An Old Testament figure named Hagar identifies God as the One who sees her. As part of our cloud of witnesses, she encourages us to believe that God sees all the details of our lives including those parts we're ashamed of. More than that, as Tim Keller said, God loves us “all the way to the bottom” seeing all of our unlovable parts yet declaring “I love you anyway.” Cloud of Witnesses Cor Chmieleski Hope Community Church - Downtown Minneapolis Download Message Slides For more resources or to learn more about Hope Community Church, visit hopecc.com.

Jeremy Cox | True North 2025 by Hope Community Church, Willow Grove

What if your faith is meant to shape not just what you believe, but who you become? In this sermon, Clay unpacks Titus 2 to explore how embracing sound doctrine anchors our hearts in Christ, transforms our character, and empowers us to live with integrity in a world desperate for hope.

It starts with two brothers and two offerings. One is accepted, the other isn't, and what unfolds exposes something hidden in all of us—a quiet comparison, a craving to be enough, a soul that won't settle. You can't outwork that restlessness, but you can let better blood speak.

Our current cultural moment lends itself to highly narrated identities. What is a highly narrated identity? It's a self-conception that is shaped, curated, and reinforced through continuous personal storytelling. Essentially, you're the author. Scripture confronts this thinking and invites to embrace a new author and new identity, one beyond your ability to manufacture.

What if the most important thing about you isn't what people see—but who you are when no one's looking? This week, we're unpacking why godly character—not talent or title—is what truly qualifies someone to lead in the Church. It's a timely reminder for all of us: character still matters. And it might matter more than we think.

Throughout the Gospels, Jesus consistently overturns people's expectations and reshapes their understanding of who God is and what He is doing. He flips the script by working in unexpected places, changing lives, and transforming the world through a group of the most unlikely people. In the most surprising act of all, he dies and rises again—so that now through the good news of the gospel, he can rewrite any story.

Why does work feel so empty—when we were made for more? The average person will spend 90,000 hours working in their lifetime. But what happens when your 9 to 5 feels pointless? If you've ever felt burned out, stuck, or like your work doesn't matter, you're not alone. In this episode, Ben Foote and Jason Gore explore how to find real purpose in your job, no matter what you do. Whether you're in a cubicle, on a job site, or managing your own business, discover why your work matters—and how it can connect to something bigger than yourself. Listen now to find purpose in your 9 to 5.

What you believe shapes how you live. In a world full of conflicting messages and cultural confusion, Jason kicks off our new series in the book of Titus by showing why sound doctrine is more than just head knowledge—it's a roadmap for real life. Through Paul's opening words to Titus, we'll explore how right belief leads to godly living, how eternal hope anchors us in the everyday hustle, and why the truth of the Gospel is worth building your life on.

This passage is filled with perils, promises, and planks. The bible often uses narrative to communicate spiritual realities. In this story, a ship is destroyed and those unable to swim cling to wood planks eventually arriving safely ashore. Isn't that our spiritual story—awash in sin and death until a wooden plank in the form of a cross surfaces and saves us?
