Speaker: Robert ConnWhat if the greatest gift God gives you doesn't match your expectations, but changes your life? This Christmas Eve-Eve, we are reminded that when the world expected something powerful and flashy, God sent a baby. Jesus stepped into our tangled mess, became one of us, and brought a Light that still shines today. Christmas isn't about striving or fixing, it's about open hands, open hearts, and receiving the Savior we truly need.Need Prayer?

In this on-demand message, Pastor Josh walks us through the Christmas story from a different angle — the journey, the timing, and the trust required when God's plan feels inconvenient or unclear.  Through the story of Mary and Joseph, we're reminded that God's timing is never random. Even when life feels rushed, delayed, or overwhelming, God is still at work in ways we can't always see. Merry Christmas from all of us at Hope City.Send us a text

December 21st, 2025 | Atrributes of Advent | Luke 2:9-20The Christmas season is often full—full of schedules, expectations, and emotions. In this message, Pastor Daniel Norris brings us back to the heart of Advent by reminding us that Christmas doesn't wait for us to have it all together. Instead, Christmas is the moment God stepped into our world.Drawing from Luke 2:8–20, Pastor Daniel unpacks two powerful attributes of Advent: the Glory of God and the Grace of God. As the glory of the Lord breaks into the darkness of an ordinary field, it reveals God's holiness and power. And as grace follows, it draws near to ordinary people—shepherds who were overlooked, insignificant, and fearful.This message explores how God's glory exposes our need, but His grace reassures us with good news of great joy for all people. Jesus doesn't arrive in strength or status, but in humility—wrapped in cloth, lying in a manger—so that no one has to climb to reach Him.Just like the shepherds, we're invited to respond: Will we stay in the field, or will we draw near and see what the Lord has done? This Advent message points us to the true meaning of Christmas—not what we feel about it, but what God has done through His Son.A timely reminder that the God we rightly fear is also the God who came near, bringing glory that overwhelms the darkness and grace that changes everything.Do you know JESUS?: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.nblongview.org/do-you-know-jesus⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Need PRAYER?: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.nblongview.org/pray⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠SUPPORT through giving: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.nbbctx.org/giving⁠⁠

December 21st, 2025 | Attributes of Advent | Luke 2:8-20Why does Christmas exist? According to Pastor Matt Darby, the answer is simple yet profound: Christmas exists so that we can know God. In this Advent message from Luke 2:8–20, Pastor Matt explores how the arrival of Jesus reveals a God who is both overwhelmingly glorious and astonishingly gracious.While we often separate God's glory and His grace—placing glory in heaven and grace on earth—Luke's Gospel refuses to divide them. In the birth announcement of Jesus, God's radiant glory shines in the darkness, and His compassionate grace reaches the lowest and least: ordinary, overlooked shepherds living on the margins of society.Pastor Matt unpacks what the Bible truly means by God's glory—the weight, splendor, and radiance of His presence—and how that same holy glory comes near through grace. The shepherds' fear gives way to peace as God speaks words of comfort, proving that His holiness does not push sinners away but draws them close.At the heart of this passage is a powerful declaration: “Unto you is born this day a Savior, who is Christ the Lord.” In one sentence, heaven announces salvation that is both cosmic and deeply personal. This message reminds us that God meets us where we are, not where we wish we were, and that His grace is always closer than we deserve.As the Advent season points us toward the new year, this sermon invites listeners to respond like the shepherds—drawing near, receiving salvation, and returning with hearts full of worship for all that God has done.Do you know JESUS? ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.nbgilmer.org/do-you-know-jesus⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Need PRAYER? ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.nbgilmer.org/pray⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Support through GIVING: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.nbbctx.org/giving⁠

Speaker: Robert ConnWhat if one missing piece could make all of Christmas go dark? Many things feel essential to Christmas, like snow, gifts, music, and traditions, but none of them actually hold the story together. There is only one bulb you cannot remove: the Incarnation. God didn't just come near, He became flesh. Without that, there is no cross, no resurrection, and no salvation. Christmas isn't powered by sentiment. It's powered by this truth: the Word became flesh. Take that out, and the whole strand goes dark.Need Prayer?

Christmas is supposed to be the most wonderful time of the year, yet many people enter this season exhausted, overwhelmed, or feeling far from joyful and triumphant. In this message, Lead Pastor Aaron Pennington opens our Christmas series, Songs of Christmas, by taking us deeper into the meaning behind the classic hymn O Come All Ye Faithful.Rather than treating Christmas music as background noise, Pastor Aaron shows how this 250 year old hymn is actually a calling to reorient our hearts toward Jesus. Using Colossians 1, Matthew 11, Hebrews 4, and the overarching story of Scripture, he explains what it truly means to adore Christ and why adoration goes far beyond seasonal emotion. It is the highest biblical expression of worship, placing Christ as the supreme affection of our lives.Whether you walked into this season feeling faithful, joyful, or triumphant, or whether you feel weary, broken, disappointed, or unsure about faith, this message reminds you that the hymn is not describing your performance. It is describing the victory of Jesus that you step into by faith.Pastor Aaron also addresses the emotional weight many people carry in December and offers the comfort Jesus gives to the weary. Because Christ took on flesh and experienced suffering, betrayal, exhaustion, and pain, we can never say to God, “You do not understand.” He understands completely and invites us to come boldly to receive mercy and grace.This message will help you slow down, refocus your heart, and rediscover why Jesus is worthy of all devotion, affection, and adoration this Christmas. Learn why Christmas is not about having it all together but about the Savior who came to rescue us, redeem us, and offer eternal life to all who trust him.

December 7th, 2025 | Attributes of Advent | Luke 1:26-38In this week's Advent message, Pastor Matt Darby invites us into Luke 1 to rediscover the heart of Christmas: a God who longs to be known. As we continue our Attributes of Advent series, we see two breathtaking truths about God woven through the story of Jesus' arrival—He is omnipotent (all-powerful) and immanent (always present).Pastor Matt shows how God's power and God's nearness converge in unexpected places. From a forgotten town like Nazareth to a humble young woman like Mary, we see that God draws near not because we are impressive, but because He is gracious. His presence lifts our fears, speaks peace into our anxieties, and meets us in the quiet corners of life where we least expect Him.Through Gabriel's announcement, we are reminded that God's unstoppable power is building a kingdom no force on earth can disrupt. The virgin birth becomes more than a miracle—it becomes the foundation of our salvation, showing us that Jesus is both fully God and fully man, the only One able to redeem us. And yet, this same omnipotent God comes near, overshadowing His people with the power of the Holy Spirit, accomplishing in us what we could never accomplish on our own.Pastor Matt challenges us to consider: What happens when the God who can do anything also promises to be with us in everything? The answer is found in Mary's response—full surrender. Not a surrender of defeat, but a surrender of trust. A willingness to say, “Let it be to me according to Your word,” even when the path is unclear.This episode calls us to rest instead of strive, trust instead of fear, and surrender instead of control. Because God is both stronger than we think and closer than we realize.Do you know JESUS? ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.nbgilmer.org/do-you-know-jesus⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Need PRAYER? ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.nbgilmer.org/pray⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Support through GIVING: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.nbbctx.org/giving⁠

December 7th, 2025 | Attributes of Advent | Luke 1:26-38In this Advent message, Pastor Todd Kaunitz continues our series Attributes of Advent by exploring two profound characteristics of God revealed in the Christmas story: His omnipotence and His immanence. While God is all-powerful and sovereign over all creation, He is also deeply personal—near, involved, and present with His people.Drawing from Luke 1:26–38, Pastor Todd walks us through the miracle of the virgin birth, a stunning display of God's unlimited power. Yet this same miracle also reveals His intimate nearness as He steps into human history through the incarnation—God becoming flesh in the person of Jesus. Through Mary's honest questions and humble surrender, we see a model of trust when God's plans stretch beyond our understanding.This episode invites us to marvel at the God who both can do anything and who comes close. The God who defies natural laws to bring forth a Savior also draws near to the brokenhearted, the fearful, and the weary. Pastor Todd reminds us that because God is both omnipotent and immanent, we can trust Him fully, surrender to Him confidently, and bring our burdens before Him knowing He will never leave us.Whether you need reassurance of God's power or a reminder of His presence, this message calls you to draw near to the One who is both Almighty God and Ever-Present Savior.Do you know JESUS?: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.nblongview.org/do-you-know-jesus⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Need PRAYER?: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.nblongview.org/pray⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠SUPPORT through giving: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.nbbctx.org/giving⁠⁠

What comes to mind when you see someone facing financial problems? Do you ever think they should have planned better or worked harder? Do you ever feel like someone should not be as lazy to be hungry and should get a job? What if someone has nowhere to sleep for the night? Did you ever think they made too many bad choices and should have done better?It sometimes might be challenging to go out of our way and help those in need even though they deserve it or not! Isn't it interesting that we, as God's children, have a special term for this? Mercy! Embracing mercy does not signify weakness. While the mindset of showing mercy may not be common in every situation, our God wants us to live a special life and make it count by showing kindness to others.Having mercy is not a sign of weakness; it is, in fact, a strength and a source of fulfillment. But how do we know how far we can extend our mercy to others? From simple acts of kindness to going above and beyond, what does the Bible say about mercy?Join us as we continue our series filled with fulfillment, A Worthy Pursuit. Let us come together to understand how our acts of kindness can create meaningful differences in a world where judgments are often made too quickly. Let us together grow in faith by discovering where true joy and fulfillment lie, becoming a blessing to our loved ones and to others around us!✅ Check in to let us support you in your journey.

What if the thing blocking your next level isn't a lack of grind… but a lack of rest? In this message, Dr. Eric Thomas unpacks God's strategy for a factory reset — not to punish you, but to restore you deeply so He can use you greatly. Drawing from Jeremiah 29:11 and Jesus' own rhythm of withdrawing to rest, ET shows why heaven is calling you to stop worshiping hustle and start honoring rest as a spiritual strategy. You'll hear: - Why God told ET to separate accounts and start preparing at the end of the year for the next year - How a strategy coach put him on “idea punishment” and unlocked a new level of impact - Why Matthew 11:28–30 reveals rest as a pillar of success, not a reward after success - How Jesus often withdrew (Luke 5:16) and what that means for your schedule, your ministry, and your family Why this season at APOC is a factory reset: reset, rest, refresh, restore This isn't about laziness. It's about alignment. Before God uses you greatly, He restores you deeply.

November 30th, 2025 | Attributes of Advent | Luke 1:5-25As we enter the Advent season, Pastor Todd Kaunitz launches a new series exploring the attributes of God revealed in the story of Christmas. In this episode, “Sovereign & Merciful,” we journey through Luke 1:5–25 and witness how God's divine nature is displayed in the lives of Zechariah and Elizabeth.Pastor Todd reminds us that what we believe about God shapes everything about us. Through the story of an aging priest chosen by God at a divinely appointed moment, we see the sovereignty of God—His absolute rule, His orchestration of every detail, and His power to accomplish the impossible in His perfect timing. Even in seasons of silence, waiting, or disappointment, God is at work for His redemptive purposes.We also see the mercy of God—His compassion toward the hurting, His attentiveness to the prayers of His people, and His tender kindness in giving Zechariah and Elizabeth a long-awaited son. Pastor Todd shows us that God's mercy is not only found in the blessings He gives, but also in the seasons He withholds, shaping us for a greater purpose than we could imagine.This message culminates in the announcement of John the Baptist—the one foretold by the prophets—whose life would prepare the way for the ultimate revelation of God's mercy: the coming of Jesus Christ.If you're walking through a season of waiting, distress, or wondering what God is doing, this episode will anchor your heart in the truth that God is sovereign, God is merciful, and God can be trusted.Do you know JESUS?: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.nblongview.org/do-you-know-jesus⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Need PRAYER?: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.nblongview.org/pray⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠SUPPORT through giving: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.nbbctx.org/giving⁠⁠

November 30th, 2025 | Attributes of Advent | Luke 1:5-25In this powerful Advent message, Pastor Matt Darby kicks off our series, “Attributes of Advent,” by taking us deep into the story behind the story—the God who longs to be known. Advent means arrival, and in the arrival of Jesus we don't just discover a Savior—we discover the very heart, character, and nature of God Himself.Walking through Luke 1:5–25 and the story of Zechariah and Elizabeth, Pastor Matt reveals two attributes that shine brilliantly in the Christmas narrative: God's sovereignty and God's mercy. Through a faithful but barren couple, an unexpected priestly assignment, and a long-awaited angelic message, we see a God who rules over every detail and moves with relentless compassion.Pastor Matt shows us:God's Sovereignty over Seasons — Our waiting is never wasted. God orchestrates every chapter of our lives with purpose, even when circumstances feel silent or stagnant.God's Mercy in Our Suffering — He sees our obedience, acknowledges our hurt, and meets us with His presence before His provision.God's Sovereignty Over Every Detail — Nothing about Zechariah's moment in the temple was random; God had placed him precisely where he needed to be.God's Mercy in Hearing Every Prayer — Even long-buried prayers are remembered by the God who treasures the cries of His people.God's Sovereignty Over the Impossible — Age, biology, and limitation cannot hinder the purposes of God.God's Mercy in the Miracle — God not only gave Zechariah and Elizabeth a child—He gave them a prophet who would prepare the way for the Messiah.God's Sovereignty and Mercy in Our Doubt — Zechariah's unbelief didn't derail God's plan. God lovingly disciplines, but He never abandons. Doubt doesn't disqualify us—God's mercy holds us even there.Through this message, Pastor Matt calls us to see our own lives through the lens of who God truly is: a sovereign King writing every line of our story, and a merciful Father filling those lines with compassion, patience, and purpose.If you find yourself waiting, suffering, longing for the impossible, or wrestling with doubt—this episode will remind you that God is working in every season, hearing every prayer, and moving in ways far greater than you can see.Do you know JESUS? ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.nbgilmer.org/do-you-know-jesus⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Need PRAYER? ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.nbgilmer.org/pray⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Support through GIVING: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.nbbctx.org/giving⁠

In our series, A Worthy Pursuit, we've been exploring how our influence and everyday choices can shape the world around us. Today, we're leaning into what it truly means to "walk humbly".Humility isn't about shrinking back; it's about using our gifts and opportunities to elevate others.

November 23rd, 2025 | Standalone | Luke 17:11-19As we step into Thanksgiving week, Pastor Daniel Norris invites us to shift our hearts into a posture of gratitude—one that recognizes God's mercy, returns to Jesus in worship, and ultimately leads to a transformed life.Drawing from Luke 17:11–19, this message unpacks the story of ten lepers who encounter Jesus, yet only one returns in gratitude. Through vivid storytelling and personal reflection, Pastor Daniel explores how easy it is to become familiar with God's grace—so familiar that we forget to marvel at it. But a grateful heart remembers where Jesus was headed, recognizes the mercy we've received, and comes back to the feet of the One who gave it.In this episode, you'll discover:How gratitude begins when we remember the mercy Jesus extended long before we ever moved toward Him.Why obedience often precedes breakthrough, just as the lepers were healed “as they went.”What sets true gratitude apart—not just receiving God's blessings, but returning to the Blesser.How gratitude transforms us, making us whole from the inside out.Whether you feel like one of the nine who walked away or the one who returned, this message calls you to slow down, remember God's grace, and respond with a heart full of worship.Join us as we prepare for Thanksgiving by cultivating A Grateful Heart.Do you know JESUS?: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.nblongview.org/do-you-know-jesus⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Need PRAYER?: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.nblongview.org/pray⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠SUPPORT through giving: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.nbbctx.org/giving⁠⁠

November 23rd, 2025 | Standalone | 1 Peter 1:3-7What does it really mean to be sure of your salvation? In a world where certainty is rare and often feels impossible, Pastor Ben Lofton turns to 1 Peter 1:3–7 to help believers discover where true assurance is found—and how to recognize the evidence of a transformed life.In this stand-alone message, positioned between sermon series, Pastor Ben dives deep into one of the most foundational questions of the Christian faith: How can I know that I'm truly saved? Whether you struggle with doubt, wrestle with false assurance, or simply want to grow in confidence before God, this passage offers clarity, hope, and solid ground.Through Peter's words to suffering, persecuted believers, we explore three essential truths:Salvation is an act of God's grace, made possible through the finished work of Jesus—not something we earn or achieve on our own.Our salvation is held and guarded by God, secured by the Holy Spirit and sustained by God's power, not our performance.Assurance is revealed through transformation, as genuine faith produces real fruit, endurance, and an ongoing work of the Spirit in our lives.Pastor Ben reminds us that the Christian life is one of long obedience, shaped over time by the power of the Holy Spirit. A transformed heart leads to a transformed life—not perfectly, but undeniably. And the evidence of that transformation becomes the foundation of our assurance.Whether you're seeking confidence in your salvation, discerning areas of needed growth, or longing to see the work of God more clearly in your life, this message will point you back to the hope, security, and transforming power of Jesus.Join us for The Evidence of Assurance, and allow Scripture to steady your heart and strengthen your faith.Do you know JESUS? ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.nbgilmer.org/do-you-know-jesus⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Need PRAYER? ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.nbgilmer.org/pray⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Support through GIVING: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.nbbctx.org/giving⁠

Have you ever chased after things that ultimately left you feeling broken or without peace? Perhaps you pursued someone who rejected you, or tried something you thought would bring you satisfaction, only to end up feeling even more dissatisfied. While some things in life are truly worth pursuing, you might find yourself still feeling as though something is missing. Have you ever wondered why these pursuits leave us feeling empty?As God's children, He desires the best for us. He wants us to feel fulfilled and satisfied in every aspect of our lives and to enjoy every blessing He provides. But how can we discern whether we're pursuing the right things? How can we identify what will truly bring us joy and satisfaction? Why is it even important to understand what we are seeking after?Join us as we launch our new series, A Worthy Pursuit. Let's come together to discuss how we can focus on the right things to amplify our joy, especially when God empowers us to direct our energy toward meaningful pursuits. Let us join hands as community to be blessed and be a blessing to our friends, family, and our loved ones.✅ Check in to let us support you in your journey.
