Faith is the key that unlocks the supernatural. Without it, we can't fully walk in the life God has for us. Faith saves us, justifies us, fuels our prayers, sustains us through trials, and releases the miraculous. But for faith to work, we must lay down doubt and unforgiveness. When we grow in God's Word and deepen our relationship with Him, our faith grows too. If you're believing for breakthrough—faith is your access point.Believe. Ask. Step out. And watch God move. Scripture References: Romans 10:9 Acts 16:31 John 3:16 Galatians 2:26 Galatians 2:16 Romans 4:3 Romans 5:1 Mark 11:24 Mark 11:12-14 Mark 11:20-26 James 1:6-8 Acts 6:8 John 14:12-13 Mark 16:17-18 Mark 9:23 Hebrews 11:27 1 Peter 1:7 Luke 22:31-32 2 Thessalonians 1:3 Romans 1:17 Luke 17:5 Romans 10:17 Hebrews 12:2
In this week's message, Pastor Alex invites us into the raw and honest space of grief and loss through the lens of Lamentations. As we reflect on the sorrow of a broken Jerusalem, we're also invited to name the pain in our own stories. With compassion and insight, Alex reminds us that even in seasons of deep hurt, we are not without hope. God's faithfulness hasn't run out—His mercy meets us in the middle of our lament. Join us as we hold space for grief and discover the quiet strength that comes from trusting a God who never lets go.
This week, Pastor Alex reminded us that we were never meant to live ordinary lives. We are called to walk in the supernatural power of God. The anointing breaks every yoke—it heals, delivers, restores, and sets captives free. Jesus was anointed for a purpose, and as His Church, we are too. Without the anointing, there is no power—but with it, everything changes. Let's prepare our hearts for what God wants to pour out in this season. Isaiah 10:27 Matthew 3:11-17 Luke 4:1 Luke 4:14-19 Acts 10:38 1 John 3:8 Acts 1:4-8 Acts 14:12 Mark 16:17-18 2 Timothy 3:1-5 Romans 15:19 Ephesians 3:20 John 14:12
Pastor Alex explores Jesus' command to "love one another" immediately after Judas leaves to betray him, highlighting how this timing reveals the core of Christian discipleship. While we often view Judas as uniquely sinful, we are all capable of betrayal and sin, making us more like Judas than we care to admit. Through this realization, we're challenged to consider who our personal "Judas" might be and how we might practice Christ-like love and forgiveness, even toward those who have deeply hurt us.

In this sermon, Pastor Alex explores the deep desires that shape our lives—both the ones within us and the ones we absorb from the world around us. Looking at the story of the Tower of Babel, he invites us to consider how easily our ambitions can lead us away from God's design for community, humility, and trust. From Genesis to Philippians, we're reminded that the way of Jesus isn't about climbing higher, but about laying down our lives in love. In a world chasing success and self-made stories, this message calls us to root ourselves in something deeper—God's transforming grace and the way of the cross.

For the past five years, Pastor Alex has had a monthly lunch meeting with a few guys to talk about social, racial, and societal issues. We have had black, white, and Latinos men all coming together to share our perspectives, ask questions, and listen to each other. This lunch started after the George Floyd incident in May of 2020 when my friend Hector connected me with Lieutenant Dave Meyer to gain perspective from all sides of that issue. From there, we kept meeting to talk about other issues and events like Breonna Taylor, Rayshard Brooks, Jacob Blake, Tyreek Hill, etc. We discussed all the issues you discussed on social media. Now, we are finally ready to share our conversations with the world. We will do this in a 10-week series of podcasts and then plan on releasing the book next year. “Lunch to Save the World” tells the story of how people from all different walks of life come together to civilly discuss what's going on in our world!

In this message, Pastor Alex explores the deeply human experience of fear—how it shapes our choices, builds walls around our lives, and tempts us to trust ourselves more than God. Drawing from the story of Cain and Jesus' words in Matthew 6, we're invited to consider a counter-cultural way of living: one marked not by self-protection but by trust, gratitude, and surrender. What if the life God offers is less about safety and more about freedom?

Through historical anecdotes and personal reflections, Pastor Alex invites the congregation to trust in God's goodness and direction, even when faced with difficult decisions and uncertain paths. Join us for a thought-provoking and spiritually enriching exploration of faith, trust, and the journey of following Jesus.
There's something deeply powerful about encountering God in the secret place. It's where worship unlocks access to His presence and intimacy with Him. Because God is relational, He longs for us to seek Him—not just know about Him, but truly know Him. Pastor Alex reminded us that in those quiet, surrendered moments, battles are won, strength is renewed, and lives are forever changed. There are five significant things experienced in the life of a believer who consistently seeks Him in the secret place. Let's be intentional to make room for Him—because what happens in secret shapes everything we see. Matthew 6:5-6 Daniel 10:10-13 Luke 4:1-14 1 Samuel 16:23 Genesis 32:23-29 Exodus 3:1-5 Matthew 14:22-25 Luke 18:2-8 Psalm 91

D12 Week 6 | Pastor Alex Santiago | Wednesday, April 2, 2025
This episode comes straight out of Deuteronomy 28, when Moses told the people they are either going to experience blessings or curses from God.

During this episode Pastor Alex also talks about how so many people today are confused, anxious, and depressed and end up committing suicide. That's all part of the plan from the devil to steal, kill, and destroy us. This is an episode you will want to share with friends you know who are struggling.
