Are you feeling called to start something new? Discover the transformative journey of how to start a house church and create a community that thrives on faith and fellowship. Starting a house church can be a rewarding experience, offering a unique opportunity to connect with others on a deeper level. In this video, Jesse Reeves of King's Porch, explores the essential steps and considerations for establishing your own house church. From understanding the core principles to practical church outreach ideas. Jesse Reeves - award-winning songwriter ("Speak Jesus") and worship leader - shares his radical shift from touring with Chris Tomlin to the front lines of a house church movement. After years on staff at Passion City and The Austin Stone, Jesse took a God-ordained "sabbatical" that led him to a startling realization: We have more Christian resources than ever, yet fewer people coming to know Christ.Discover the rhythm of King's Porch, where the "Jesus Stories" practice turned awkward silence into a culture of evangelism. Jesse breaks down the history of the "clergy-laity divide" and explains why every Christian - from realtors to car salesmen - is called to be a royal priest in their own neighborhood.

Journey Church Sunday Worship Gathering Audio - Bozeman, Montana
Logan Holloman | Next Gen Pastor | May 24, 2026 Referenced Scripture: Luke 16:19-31, Colossians 1:16, Romans 1:28-31 Reflection Questions: 1. When you hear the question, “How could a loving God send people to hell?”, what emotions or assumptions immediately come to mind? How did this message challenge, deepen, or reshape the way you think about that question? 2. The sermon described hell as “the final form of exile from God” rather than simply punishment. How does viewing the Bible through the lens of creation, fall, redemption, and restoration change the conversation about judgment? 3. In Luke 16, the rich man's deepest issue was not wealth, but a heart curved inward on itself. Where are you tempted to become spiritually indifferent—to God, to others, or to suffering around you? 4. The cross shows Jesus entering our exile to bring us home. What stands out most to you about the idea that God personally stepped into judgment and suffering for humanity? 5. The sermon ended with the question: “Who am I becoming?” What habits, loves, priorities, or patterns are currently shaping your heart? Are they moving you toward deeper communion with God and others—or further inward toward self-centeredness? What's your next step? Connect: We'd love to connect with you!

We live in this “gap” between who we are and who God, in Christ, is making us to be. In Philippians 2, Paul narrates the life of Jesus as the one who gives “shape” and “definition” to the kind of shared life we were created and redeemed to enjoy. In our study, we'll see how the gospel that saves us also transforms us deeply.
WHAT HAPPENS IN THIS EPISODE? In this episode of Jesus Stories, Jesus' teachings become more pointed - more direct. Through parables, Jesus confronts the Pharisees and their attitudes about money and teaching on honesty and faithfulness. He uses a parable to point to their attitude toward the poor. And he will discuss the nature of the coming Kingdom of God and the need to be watchful and ready for its arrival.

Luke 14:1-27 Tyler Dunn // Journey Pastor
What does it mean to be truly devoted to Jesus? In this opening message of the Unstoppable series through Acts, we discover the original DNA of the early church: a people radically devoted to God's Word, to one another, to prayer, and to generous living. When devotion to Christ defines every area of our lives—not just Sunday mornings—the kingdom advances and God adds to His church day by day.
The title and role of Mary as Co-redemptrix are clearly established in Scripture, Tradition, and the Magisterium, and are also confirmed in authentic Private Revelation, including Fatima.

Pastor Jason explores the Day of Pentecost from Acts 2, showing how the Holy Spirit's arrival fulfilled God's promises and empowered ordinary believers like Peter to boldly witness for Christ. God wants all people—your neighbors, your enemies, every nation—to be saved, and He has given you the same Spirit power to be His witness right where you are. Set a daily reminder to pray for divine appointments, trust the Holy Spirit when opportunities come, and watch God use you to point others to Jesus.
WHAT HAPPENS IN THIS EPISODE? In this Jesus Stories episode, we delve deep into the three parables of Luke 15. In “Jesus' Lost and Found” we look at how those parables reveal something of the character of Jehovah God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit. We also look at you and me and our needed response to those characteristics. What should we do with this information? What does it mean for each of us? SCRIPTURES REFERENCED IN THIS EPISODE?

Jesus ascended to heaven not to abandon us, but to reign at the Father's right hand, intercede for us, and send the Holy Spirit to live within us. What's better than Christ with us is Christ in us—empowering us to fulfill the Great Commission while we await His return. The call is urgent: we are God's plan to reach the lost, and we must live on mission with broken hearts for those who don't yet know Him.

Thank you for joining us for Christian Faith Center's Sermon of the week. This message is from our Nampa Location. Pastor Jordan wraps up our message series "JESUS STORIES" The physical resurrection of Jesus Christ is the cornerstone of the Christian Faith. People have many opinions about Jesus. He was a prophet, a teacher, philosopher, etc. The only problem with that is that He claimed to be God's own son. And claimed the proof of that would be that He would die and three days later He would rise from the dead!

The Jesus Story: Wk. 21 (Resurrected)
Thank you for joining us for Christian Faith Center's Sermon of the week. This message is from our Nampa Location. Pastor Jordan continues our message series "JESUS STORIES"Matthew 6:19–26 NLTJesus opens this story with one of the most powerful and yet challenging scriptures in the bible. He's teaching us to live for heaven more than earth. He's teaching us to trust Him with our resources and our lives. But so much more than that He is teaching us Kingdom realities about what actually shapes our lives!
Thank you for joining us for Christian Faith Center's Sermon of the week. This message is from our Nampa Location. Pastor Jordan continues our message series "JESUS STORIES" Mark 11:12–24 NLTThis story is not about a tree! It's about: Religion without power. Spirituality without forgiveness. Form but no fruit. God but no grace! When cursed this tree.... He did something He never did again. The cursed tree was the only miracle of destruction that Jesus ever performed. It really wasn't about the tree! This was about the temple, for Jesus! This was a prophetic picture!

Jonathan Kerhoulas. Matthew 27:15-26.
Thank you for joining us for Christian Faith Center's Sermon of the week. This message is from our Nampa Location. Pastor Jordan continues our message series "JESUS STORIES" There are many people, Christians, and pastors that are trying to predict a lot right now. Does this mean the end is coming? Does this mean the rapture of the church is closer? Is this setting the stage for the end times? With biblical Persia being modern day Iran... There are certainly implications! This wouldn't be the first time the prince of Persia had been restrained so that God's will could be done!
The Jesus Story: Wk. 20 (Tried, Crucified)
Jeff Bruecker. Matthew 26:69-75.
As the official name of this Sunday implies, it is meant to hold much of the Jesus Story. It starts triumphantly but ends with Jesus crying out in a loud voice and breathing his last (Matthew 27:50). In most worship services, this turn takes roughly an hour. Jonathan and Seth, constrained by their episode length, try to do it in half that by talking about what links the two stories. Jonathan proposes that Paul's letter to the Philippians and his Christ Hymn (2:5-11) emphasize humility, which can help us bridge that gap. So, what is humility? In what ways is Jesus humble? How is his death another example of his humility and, maybe, the ultimate act of it? We're glad you're with us! Our podcast episodes have been gaining more traction lately; they're reaching slightly larger audiences. We love that! We would love it if you'd share it with someone you think would enjoy it too.
Jeff Bruecker. Matthew 26:17-29.
The Jesus Story: Wk. 18 (The Last/Lord's Supper)
Luke 16:19-31 Tyler Dunn // Journey Pastor
Revelation 19v6-7 with Tyler Staton How do our bodies and our sexuality fit into the larger story of God's redemption? This teaching traces the biblical story from creation to resurrection, showing how our bodies were designed to reveal God's beauty, how sin distorted that design, and how Jesus restores it. In the way of Jesus, our desires are not something to ignore or indulge, but something to be redeemed and directed toward the deeper love we were made for. Bridgetown.church/teaching
Kerusso exists to tell people about the Good News of Jesus Christ, but somehow in our information-jacked world, culture has moved further away from understanding who the most famous person in history really is. Millions of books and articles have been written about a carpenter who lived in the Middle East 2000 years ago, and Jesus has been identified as anything from a desert mystic to God Himself. Historically, He was born into a Jewish family in Judea at the time the Roman Empire controlled the area. Born in Bethlehem and raised in Nazareth, Jesus was 30 before He gained a reputation as a great teacher, but He was much more than that. The Bible tells us that He was sent into the world by God the Father, to stand in our place and take the penalty for our sin. According to Genesis, man defied God's template for living and because He is holy, God requires that someone is accountable for sin. Had Jesus not entered the world, we'd be left without a way to reconcile with God. Long story short, Jesus Christ is much more than just a wise teacher. He's also the Son of God. The Bible also tells us Jesus is one with the Father. Remember, when Moses encountered God in the burning bush, he asked God how to identify Him to the people, and God replied, “I am who I am.” And that was in the Old Testament.In John 8:58 in the New Testament, Jesus tells the people, “Truly, truly, I say to you, before Abraham was, I am.” Jesus Christ is a divine being. And John 1:29 says, “The next day, John saw Jesus coming toward him and said, ‘Look, the lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world.'” This description of Him is not embraced by most people around the world. The Bible tells us that man's heart is wicked. It isn't like billions are rushing to churches so that they can have their sins forgiven. The human mind and heart don't want to focus on the messier side of the Gospel. We're imperfect. We sin. And our sin is an offense to God. Who wants to hear that? We don't want to be told that we're not good. We want to be told we're good, and worthy of God's love. And the Good News, the Gospel in the person of Jesus Christ, is that we have the pathway to be like Him. Romans 8 tells us that it is God's desire that we become like Jesus. And that's a goal worth reaching for. Let's pray. Father, thank you for providing us with your Word that tells us exactly who Jesus is, and what His life means to us. You could have abandoned us to sin, but you didn't. The praise and the glory belong to you alone. In Jesus' name, amen. Change your shirt, and you can change the world!
