Sean Palmer - What would you do if you believed you could not fail, that God and God's kingdom was always near you, especially after failure? In our second week of Jesus Stories, Sean Palmer asks if it could be that God is inviting you to step into a new venture, new season, or new identity and promises to be with you.

Welcome to the 7th sermon in our series looking at personal encounters with Jesus as recorded in the gospel of John. The idea that God would become a human and “dwell among us” is an astounding thought. The God of the Bible did not remain hidden or removed or indifferent, He actually wrote Himself into the story and became one of His creation!? And when Jesus walked among us, He did not come as a king or a warrior or a leader, He came as a servant. He walked and talked and met with very real people in very real circumstances.  This summer at Refuge, we are going through the Gospel of John and meeting Jesus in these encounters with all kinds of people. We don't just want to know our opinions about Jesus, we want to know who He really was and how He interacted with people so that we can come to know Him better.

What do you do when God doesn't remove the thorn? In this deeply personal message, Pastor Todd shares a story he's still living as he wrestles with an unexplained medical condition and discovers fresh hope in Paul's "thorn in the flesh" (2 Corinthians 12). If you've ever prayed, "God, please take this away," this message may change the way you see your pain, and the grace that meets you in it.

What Happens in This Episode? In this Jesus Stories episode, as Jesus approaches Jerusalem he tells a parable of a rich nobleman. He visits the home of Simon the leper, whom he had healed. Simon hosts a party in his honor. Among the attendees are Mary, Martha, and Lazarus. Mary anoints Jesus with oil – much to the dismay of some. Jesus finally rides into Jerusalem and is honored as the King he is. While the crowd shouts approval, the Pharisees plot to kill both Jesus and Lazarus. Jesus laments Jerusalem's future fate when he enters the city, takes a look at the Temple and then leaves.

Mike Goldsworthy - Our origin stories shape us more than we know, and not always in ways that serve us. As we kick off our Jesus Stories series, Mike Goldsworthy explores the moment Nathanael nearly dismissed Jesus based on his hometown, and what that reveals about the internalized assumptions we carry about ourselves and where we come from.

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.

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.

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.

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!

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. Join Dr. Mark Miravalle and Dr. Robert Fastiggi in the final segment of the 15-part series, "With Jesus: The Story of Mary Co-redemptrix."

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.

Luke 12:35-40 Tyler Dunn // Journey Pastor

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!

Jeff Bruecker. Matthew 26:69-75.

Jeff Bruecker. Matthew 26:17-29.

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
