The Holy Spirit isn't just a force or a feeling—He is the powerful presence of God, giving us life. In this sermon, we examine Ezekiel 36 and explore why we need the Holy Spirit. He's the one who gives us life, who regenerates our hearts, and who applies everything Jesus has accomplished to us. Without him, we can't live, we can't grow, and we can't truly follow Jesus.

On Good Friday, we remember the depth of God's love — a love so committed, it faced death itself to rescue us. In this sermon, we reflect on the cross where Jesus became both our Passover lamb and our substitute, cleansing us from sin and bearing the judgment we deserved.
From the beginning, work was never meant to be a burden but a meaningful partnership with God himself — a vital part of what it means to be human. In this sermon, we're looking at Genesis 2:4–19 and talking about how God made us for good, meaningful, creative work — not just to get by, but to partner with him.

The resurrection changed everything—but what will you do with the good news? In Luke 24:1–12, we see different reactions: the women ran to tell it, the disciples dismissed it, and Peter investigated and ended up marveling. We break down each response and ask: are you telling, doubting, exploring, or marveling? The gospel invites us to consider the evidence and be amazed.
How do we faithfully proclaim the gospel in our local contexts and beyond? Adam Mabry looks at Acts 17 and teaches us how we can point people to the cross in our daily lives.Adam Mabry is the Senior Pastor of Aletheia Church in Boston, Massachusetts, USA, and is a Professor of Biblical Studies and Theology at Every Nation Seminary.

Paul shows us how to gospel well—by letting our hearts be stirred, stepping into real conversations, and pointing people to Jesus. In this sermon, we talk about spotting gospel moments, building bridges, speaking truth with love, and why the resurrection changes everything.
No matter where we are in life—whether in a season of wandering or on the brink of something new—God's call remains the same: be faithful, make disciples, and raise up the next generation. In this episode, we explore Numbers 26 and 27 where we see the power of faithfulness, the lessons found in leadership, and the role of God's presence in shaping those who will come after us.
In this sermon, we dive into Numbers 33:50-56, exploring how God's journey for his people through the wilderness was meant to establish the exclusive worship of him. Idolatry has no place among God's people, and we must confront and destroy the idols in our lives that compete for our worship. Through identifying, acknowledging, and expelling idols, we learn to embrace the promise giver and live with a heart fully devoted to him.
In this sermon, we explore Acts 2:22-41 and the call to boldly proclaim the gospel—the good news that sinners can be made righteous through Christ. Boldness comes as a gift from the Holy Spirit, empowering us to share the only hope for salvation—Jesus Christ. We learn some practical ways to step out in faith and proclaim the gospel to those around you.
The gospel of Christ is both a comfort and a confrontation, and as we faithfully proclaim it, we can expect a variety of responses. Yet, regardless of how people respond, at the core of our mission is the love of Jesus that compels us to continue sharing his truth. In this sermon, let us be encouraged to faithfully declare the gospel, trust God to bring about transformation, and respond with grace to whatever unfolds.
