There are a lot of misconceptions on the subject of angels. Many picture them as little chubby cherubs playing their harps in the clouds, but that could not be further from the truth. The Bible has a lot to say about this supporting cast of characters and their role in human affairs. In today's study, Pastor Austin addresses questions such as, “What are angels?” “What do angels look like?” “What do they do?” “Do they have bodies?” “Are there different kinds and ranks of angels?” and many more.

Growing in faith, then, is not just getting better at Bible trivia, nor is it just doing what God wants, it's trusting he is who he says and will do what he has promised. And as your confidence and trust in him grows, so you grow in faith. This is the last message in Pastor Austin's series " I AM".
Lord of the Sabbath In this stand alone sermon, Pastor Austin unpacks how Jesus redefined the Sabbath—not as a list of restrictions, but as a gift of renewal and relationship with God. When the Pharisees accused Jesus' disciples of breaking the Sabbath by picking grain, Jesus challenged their rigid rules and revealed the true heart of Sabbath rest. By looking at His response, we'll discover how Sabbath is meant to bring freedom, not burden, and how we can embrace its true purpose in our own lives.
