We begin our new 7-week series through the Gospel of John exploring the powerful “I Am” statements of Jesus. This week Pastor Nate covered John chapter 6 as Jesus declared himself to be the bread of life. So often we are drawn to the desires of this world to satisfy our spiritual hunger, but Jesus is the only one who can truly satisfy.--Sermon by Pastor Nate Click--New to Heritage?

As we come to the end of our series in Daniel, we turn our attention to what Scripture reveals about the end times. While not every detail is clear, one truth stands above the rest: God is in control. Daniel reminds us that God's plans will unfold according to His perfect timing, giving His people confidence, hope, and steadfastness no matter what the future holds.--Sermon by Pastor Nate Click--New to Heritage?

In Daniel 9, much debate surrounds what will happen, but many overlook why these events will take place. Pastor Nate unpacks this passage, reminding us that God is committed to His own glory and that what He declares will happen always comes to pass.--Sermon by Pastor Nate Click--New to Heritage?

What happens when powerful rulers act like they are unstoppable? In Daniel 8, The Pretend Prince reveals that God raises up and pulls down nations for His purposes, and even when evil seems to prosper, He is preparing His people and accomplishing His plan. Discover why God is more concerned with your transformation than your gratification, and how, in uncertain times, we must stay focused on the King's business.--Sermon by Pastor Nate Click--New to Heritage?

Every kingdom on earth promises power, security, and satisfaction, but like the terrifying beasts of Daniel 7, they are ultimately driven by human desire and are never worthy of our worship. In a world filled with chaos, anxiety, and uncertainty, Daniel's vision reminds us that there is still an Ancient of Days seated on the throne who judges perfectly and rules justly. And when life feels overwhelming, our anxious moments become opportunities to remember that Jesus, the Son of Man, is God, and we are not.--Sermon by Pastor Nate Click--New to Heritage?

Episode DescriptionIn this episode of the Lead Ministry Podcast, Josh Denhart and Vance tackle the five core reasons volunteers say no — and what it takes to make recruiting an easy yes. They explore why guilt-based recruiting never works long-term, offering a practical framework for building the kind of ministry environment people actually want to join.If you've ever felt like pulling teeth trying to get people to serve, this episode will show you exactly what's standing in the way and how to fix it.Key Topics Covered→ The Five Reasons People Say No – Reputation, unclear roles, unclear vision, no winning team, and lack of relational equity→ Making Yes Easy – Clear structure, simple job descriptions, ministry checklists, tours, leveraging testimonies, and closing the onboarding gap→ Recruiting to Vision, Not Need – Why twice as many people signed up when one church shifted from guilt to vision-based recruitingKey Quote "People aren't moved by a need — they always feel like somebody else is going to fulfill it. People want to join a team that's thriving."Scripture References Matthew 9:37-38 – "The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few."Takeaway If volunteers keep saying no, the solution isn't to ask louder — it's to fix what you're offering. Clear structure lowers fear and builds confidence. Simple job descriptions remove ambiguity. And when people can see your ministry in action through tours and testimonies, the yes becomes almost automatic.Call to Action We hope this episode encourages and equips you.

When hardship and trials come, will you be found faithful to God? Daniel was faced with the possibility of death because of his faith, and yet he remained faithful because he served a faithful God. Listen as Pastor Kyle goes through Daniel chapter 6 and unpacks a few ways in which Daniel faithfully trusted God, not only in the big moments but behind the scenes as well.--Sermon by Pastor Kyle Kaminski--New to Heritage?

Wake Up, Rise Up, and Live in the Light | NextGen Sunday | Keller Campus Student Ministry Team by The Hills Church

Pastor Nate unpacks Daniel 4 and the rise and fall of King Nebuchadnezzar, reminding us that nothing in this world lasts forever and that even the strongest kingdoms are temporary. Through his story, we see that no one is beyond God's mercy and that He is able to humble even the hardest hearts. In the end, this chapter points us to a greater truth: God is building His kingdom, and He invites us to be part of what will last forever.--Sermon by Pastor Nate Click--New to Heritage?

Daniel 3 shows that the pressure to replace God is real. When God's hand isn't obvious, this passage calls us to trust His character anyway. And it reminds us that sometimes the clearest view of Jesus comes when we're willing to stand firm, even in the fire.--Sermon by Pastor Nate Click--New to Heritage? Want to get more involved?

What if everything you're building your life on could disappear overnight? Earthly kingdoms rise and fall, but God reveals a kingdom that can never be destroyed. We are called to stop serving gods that cannot save, trust that God can and will save, and boldly tell others that there is a God in heaven. You are invited to become a citizen of the only kingdom that will last forever.--Sermon by Pastor Nate Click--New to Heritage? Want to get more involved? Looking for a Group or Ministry Team?

We are living in disorienting days. Truth is contested, convictions are pressured, and faith can feel out of place. The book of Daniel was written for that kind of world. Set in exile, surrounded by a culture that opposed everything he believed, Daniel shows us that clarity is possible even in chaos. This study will help us see how to stand firm without compromise, think clearly without fear, and live faithfully without losing hope. Through Daniel's example, we will learn that God is not absent in confusing times but instead calls us to live with courage, conviction, and clarity right where we are.--Sermon by Pastor Nate Click--New to Heritage?

Every day, we make countless decisions, but one stands above them all: what will you do with Jesus? Will you reject Him, ignore Him, or embrace Him as Savior and Lord? On Easter Sunday, Pastor Nate unpacked the powerful story of Barabbas, Pilate, and the crowd who chose to reject Jesus as their King.--Sermon by Pastor Nate Click--New to Heritage?

On Palm Sunday, we celebrate Jesus' triumphal entry into Jerusalem, but this message looks at a deeper connection to John 7 and the Feast of Tabernacles. Discover how the cries of “Hosanna” and the waving of palm branches point to Jesus as the true source of living water who alone can satisfy our spiritual thirst.

As we finish the book of Genesis, we see a unique family reunion take place between Joseph and his brothers. In this process, we begin to notice a pattern of genuine repentance as they come face to face with the one they betrayed years before.What does it really look like to live in true repentance today? Listen as Pastor Nate unpacks these final chapters and challenges us to live a life marked by humility, honesty, and lasting transformation.--Sermon by Pastor Nate Click--New to Heritage?

In Genesis 40–41, Joseph's journey moves from prison to the palace as God provides wisdom when no one else can. Pharaoh's advisors cannot interpret his troubling dreams, reminding us that worldly answers cannot solve spiritual problems. In God's perfect timing, Joseph is elevated for God's greater purposes.During the famine, those who came to Joseph found physical bread. In the same way, only those who come to Jesus find the true bread that satisfies the soul.--Sermon by Pastor Nate Click--New to Heritage? Want to get more involved?

Every children's ministry leader — whether brand new or battle-tested — wrestles with the same thing: building a healthy volunteer team. In this episode, Tom, Cole, Ben, and Vicki tackle real questions from real leaders about structuring teams for single and multi-service churches, the "serve one, attend one" philosophy, why giving your team scheduled breaks actually prevents burnout and grows your roster, how to gracefully release a volunteer who isn't the right fit (with raw, real stories from their own ministries), and what to do when a volunteer wants to throw out your curriculum and go rogue on a Sunday morning. If you've ever thought, "I'll never have enough volunteers" or "I'm afraid to give my team a break because they won't come back" — This episode will change how you lead.

As we are introduced to Joseph's life in Genesis, we quickly see a pattern: in God's economy, gaining often comes through losing. We want the end of the story, the breakthrough, the blessing. But the gain does not come without the loss. As Joseph's story unfolds, we discover that the way forward is often the way backward.--Sermon by Pastor Nate Click--New to Heritage?

In living out a determined faith, how do you keep going? How do you keep focusing on the Lord when things get difficult? As we continue to study the life of Jacob, we see him come to a point of burning ships and leading his family into obedience. He buries idols, remembers God's faithfulness, and holds on to hope in the midst of sin and difficulty.--Sermon by Pastor Kyle Kaminski--New to Heritage? Want to get more involved?

Along with our normal worship service, we hosted our annual Ministry Fair. You'll hear from our Ministry Team leaders in this stream.

Jacob spent his life running from his brother, from his past, and from the consequences of his own sin. But in Genesis 33, we see the day he finally stopped.This passage is a powerful reminder that sorrow over sin is meant to lead us somewhere, not into shame, but into repentance. And when repentance is real, God does not respond with rejection; He responds with grace. In this message, we'll see how God's mercy transforms fear into peace and guilt into worship, and how true repentance is not trusting our efforts to fix what we've broken, but turning fully to the finished work of Jesus Christ.If you've been running, from failure, from consequences, or even from God Himself, this passage shows us the beauty of what happens when we finally stop.--Sermon by Pastor Nate Click--New to Heritage?

What does it mean to come face to face with God? In Genesis 32, Jacob's encounter reminds us that God meets us in our struggles, humbles the proud, and works all things for His glory.

In Genesis 29, we see a powerful reminder of why God's people praise Him, even when life doesn't turn out as expected. While we choose what we sow, it is God who ultimately brings the harvest, often in ways we never planned. This sermon explores how true praise is not rooted in our circumstances but in our Savior, who remains faithful through it all. --Sermon by Pastor Nate Click--New to Heritage?

Have you ever fallen in love with the place of God but missed the presence of God? In Genesis 28, Jacob encounters the Lord at Bethel, a holy moment that reveals how easy it is to be captivated by the experience rather than transformed by the One who meets us there. In this message, Pastor Nate challenges us to look beyond sacred spaces and familiar moments, and seek the face of God Himself.--Sermon by Pastor Nate Click--New to Heritage?

One choice can echo for a lifetime; Jacob and Esau learned that the hard way. In Today's Choice, Tomorrow's Consequence from Genesis 27, we explore how everyday decisions shape God's future purposes in our lives, even when His hand is hard to see. This sermon challenges us to trust God's plan now, rather than sacrificing tomorrow's blessing for today's comfort.

So much pastoral energy is lost when teams don't function well. Anxiety rises, trust erodes and the mission of the church suffers. But when teams are healthy, aligned and generous with one another, churches flourish.In this ‘Best of' episode of The Pastor's Heart, over the Australian Summer, we're joined by Peter Blanch (Reach Australia), Michael Davies (Lighthouse Church, Gorokan) and Megan Stevens (Vine Church, Surry Hills) to talk about leading up — how assistant ministers, associates and key volunteers can help teams work better, support senior leaders and care for the whole church ecosystem.We talk identity in Christ, trust, feedback, confidentiality, handling complaints and the often-unspoken dynamics of second-chair leadership — including the role of spouses.The Church Cohttp://www.thechurchco.com is a website and app platform built specifically for churches.  Advertise on The Pastor's HeartTo advertise on The Pastor's Heart go to thepastorsheart.net/sponsorSupport the show

Have you ever felt distant from God, unsure if He is near, or even if He wants to be found? In Song of Songs 1:1–8, Scripture invites us into a deeply personal and poetic picture of longing, pursuit, and love.

God loves you. It is one of the most well-known truths about God, but how often does it affect our everyday lives? In one of the most love-saturated chapters of the Bible, 1 John 4 shows us that God's love shapes our identity and how we view and treat others.--Sermon by Pastor Kyle Kaminski--New to Heritage?

What if real hope isn't wishful thinking, but quiet confidence in a faithful God? In Luke 1:46–56, we reflect on Mary's song of praise and discover how hope is anchored not in changing circumstances, but in God's unchanging character and promises. This message invites us to place our hope where it truly belongs, in Jesus, the only One who never disappoints.--Sermon by Pastor Nate Click--New to Heritage? Want to get more involved?

When God asks the unthinkable, what does faithful obedience look like? In Genesis 22, Abraham faces the ultimate test as God calls him to offer his beloved son Isaac, revealing deep truths about submission, sacrifice, and trust. This message explores how Abraham's journey points us to a greater Son who carried the wood of His own sacrifice and shows us the God who truly provides.

What if the God who promises is also the God who always delivers? In Genesis 21, we see Isaac's birth turn mocking laughter into sincere joy as God transforms His people by grace, not self-effort. This chapter contrasts slavery and freedom, flesh and faith, showing that the blessed are changed, cared for, and carried by God's promises. As Abraham plants his first stake in the land while still a sojourner, we're reminded that the Everlasting God is with us as we wait for the eternal country He has prepared.--Sermon by Pastor Nate Click--New to Heritage?

Genesis 18–19 reveals that the real issue isn't just the sin of Sodom; it's the sin in us. Sodom rejected God's authority and used people for their own purposes, and we struggle with the same temptations in different forms.

In Genesis 17, God gives Abram and Sarai new names and a new identity. Our identity, purpose, and value come from God alone.

What do we do when it feels like God is taking too long? Too often, we grow impatient and try to make things happen on our own. Abram and Sarai did the same—and it led to pain and regret.

What does real faith look like? In Genesis 15, Abram shows us that true faith isn't just discussed; it's demonstrated. This message explores how saving faith depends on God's protection, desires His provision, and decides to believe His promises.

What do you do when the easy path looks like the better one? In Genesis 13–14, Abram faces a choice that still challenges us today, between temporary gain and lasting glory.

The story of Abram shows what it means to follow God when the path ahead is unknown. Abram left behind everything familiar simply because God called him.

Kat Armstrong Kay Daigle Leaders are always on the hunt for good volunteers. The question is what to look for in a potential volunteer. The answer? Recruit gifted volunteers, in fact look for those  more gifted than you are. What does it look like practically? Kat Armstrong discusses with Kay Daigle why and how to find and empower such volunteers. As a leader, this episode will make you think about what gifts you need in the people working under and with you. Keep in mind that you need to recruit gifted volunteers, people who are even more gifted than you are! Recommended resources Recruit the right volunteers  with Kat Armstrong How Should I Structure My Women's Ministry Team? Maximizing volunteers This episode is available on video as well. TranscriptKay >> Hi, I'm Kay Daigle with Beyond Ordinary Women, and I am delighted to welcome you to a series of videos that I'm doing with Kat Armstrong, who is the founder of Polished Ministry, a nonprofit. And Kat is sharing lessons in leadership that she has learned through leading in Polished. And we have some others that we're discussing as well. But this particular session we're going to talk about seeking leaders that are more gifted than you. And so, Kat, there are probably people out there wondering why in the world you would want to seek leaders more gifted than you, because don't you want to sort of be the one who knows all the answers and, you know, you're sort of at the top of the food chain. Why not? Kat >> Well, yes, I used to think that way. I read this book by John Maxwell, probably 15 years ago called Developing the Leaders Around You. And that book changed my mind about this. And he said, “Think about your leadership on a scale with zero being not such a great leader, got to work on some things, and ten being really high capacity person. He said, “Let's say that we're seven maybe six-and-a-half. If you start recruiting eight, nines and tens in your organization, they're going to bring you up. They're only going to encourage you in leadership and make you a better leader. And I think Stephanie and I, when we co-founded this organization, really took that to heart. But I started to see quickly that if we were going to reach our peers with the gospel—young, professional women (I only had experience in sales and marketing), we needed women who were great in accounting and logistics and administration and technology. Things that I'm not going to be able to learn really quickly or efficiently. But they know how to do it. And so we just decided let's recruit the smartest, fastest, most efficient women we can think of. And it is a little intimidating.
