At our annual anointing service, Pastor Adam and three VIVE campus pastors gather to share a faith building message for the year ahead. This special message invites you to step into the new year with renewed expectation, clarity, and confidence in what God has prepared.
What if the most “overlooked” man in the Christmas story is actually one of the most important—and shows us what biblical manhood really looks like? Simeon isn't usually the first name we think of in the Christmas story, but his life gives us one of the clearest pictures of what a real man looks like—righteous, devout, Spirit-filled, hope-driven, Christ-centered, and a blessing to others. As we close out our year of focusing on biblical manhood, we're invited to look deeper: What do we see in Simeon that points us to what a real man truly is? In this week's message, Pastor Adam walks through Luke 2 and shows how Simeon's life wasn't defined by his own strength or status, but by the only One who is the perfect Real Man—Jesus. Because Jesus is the Savior, Salvation Himself, the Revealer of hearts, the Resurrected One, the Strong and Wise God-Man, we can become the men—and women—God calls us to be.

Celebrate Christmas at Rise with us! Pastor Adam teaches on Jesus is For All People!
Pastor Adam brings a powerful Christmas message titled “For What's It's Worth”, preaching from Romans 5. He challenges us to consider a defining question: Do you truly know your worth? This sermon reminds us that our value is revealed through Jesus Christ and His sacrifice for us. As we grasp our purpose in Christ, we are called to live lives that reflect the worth He placed on us. Don't miss this timely and meaningful message.
This is a special Christmas message with a focus on having the joy of the Lord in all seasons.
Christmas invites belief—but it also demands a decision.Is Jesus just a baby in a manger… a good teacher… or the King of kings?In Miracle in the Manger, we look beyond the sentiment of Christmas to the stunning claim hidden in plain sight: the manger wasn't just humble—it was revolutionary. Through the gift of gold and the response of the Wise Men, this message reveals who Jesus truly is and why His kingship changes everything.If Jesus is King, then Christmas isn't just a tradition—it's a declaration that calls for a response. And the question remains as urgent today as it was 2,000 years ago: Who do you say that He is?This message will challenge skeptics, reawaken believers, and invite every listener to consider the staggering implications of Jesus as King.

This is the weekly message from Thrive Church Online with Pastor Adam.
This sermon, No Room at the Inn, picks up right after our annual children's production, Bedtime Stories. In this message Pastor Adam brings us face to face with the miracle of Jesus entering a world that had no place for Him. Based on Luke 4, this message reveals that Christ did not arrive through ease or comfort, but through resistance and purpose. Heaven came down when Jesus stepped into our world to bring light into darkness. Though there was no room at the inn, Jesus still made His way in. This sermon reminds us that what looks like resistance may actually be God's greatest invitation.
Be encouraged! This message is about how God works all things together for the good of those who love Him.

Pastor Adam closes out the What If We Fail series with a powerful message from 1 Samuel that challenges us to stop letting our state of mind control our frame of mind. In Defeating Defeat, Pastor Adam reminds us that victory begins in the mind and that as followers of Christ, we are called to live from an abundance mindset. We should not live in a mindset of fear or failure. This sermon will encourage you to silence defeat, and step into battles knowing you already overcome through Christ.
Pastor Adam reminded us that this journey isn't meant to be walked alone. The kingdom in you grows because of the community around you. You discover who you really are by walking with God and God's people. Don't stay stuck. Don't keep repeating cycles. Don't postpone breakthrough. Take a step. Whether it's knowing God personally, finding freedom, discovering your purpose, or making a difference—you were made for this.

This is the weekly message from Thrive Church Online with Pastor Adam.
Continuing our series looking at certain spiritual disciplines, Pastor Adam looked at 1 Kings 19 to the account of Elijah hearing the gentle whisper of God as he experienced solitude while on the run from Jezebel. Among other things, we learn that God provides for our needs and brings correction and direction. So, let's take steps toward inner solitude, putting into practice this discipline and following Pastor Adam's encouragement. -Featuring Adam Sexton
If you've ever wondered whether God really sees what you're going through—or whether He still speaks in the middle of the chaos—you need this message. This week, we look at Psalm 29 and discover a truth that can steady you in any season: God is sovereign, and His voice has the authority to shape storms, break strongholds, and speak clarity into the moments you least expect.If you're tired of trying to control what you can't fix, if you're wrestling with stubborn places in your heart, or if you're simply hungry to hear God again…this message will help you trade uncertainty for confidence and surrender for strength. Come hear what happens when you stop trying to run your life—and start trusting the One who reigns over every moment.
Listen as Pastor Adam shares the things that are preventing you from living you full life for God.
In Let That Sink In, part of the What If We Fail series, Pastor Adam unpacks Matthew 14:22 to reveal how what we call failure is actually meant to deepen our faith. Walking by faith does not remove the possibility of falling short, faith redirects our trust toward God. When we see our mistakes through that lens, they become marking moments of His goodness and grace. This message invites you to let a greater faith truly sink in.
