This month, Pastor J.D. is walking us through the fascinating book of Judges. In this message, we'll see how over and over again, God's people substituted his plan for their own, with tragic consequences.

Being successful can sometimes be dangerous. Once we've scored a few victories and our leadership produces notoriety and fame, we're tempted to give ourselves far more credit than we deserve. Pastor J.D. will show us that even our biblical heroes fell into this same trap. As we trace the footsteps of Gideon, we'll discover how this successful warrior began to get puffed up and proud.

You know, everyone is a leader to someone, even if you don't realize it. Whether you're a mom or dad, a supervisor at work, or you're volunteering to lead a committee at school, someone somewhere is looking to you for guidance. Pastor J.D. shows us how God can use anyone to accomplish his plan even when we feel stretched and afraid!

This week on the Dundee Church Podcast, Pastor J.D. Georlett and theologian Keith Holmes take us into the heart of Daniel 2–5. Together, they unpack how Daniel, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego stood firm in humility and faith—even under the pressure of kings, culture, and a fiery furnace.

As we close our journey through the book of Exodus, we come to a seemingly anticlimactic ending—the construction of the tabernacle. You might think it strange, after all of the crescendos in the book, to end here. The burning bush, the 10 plagues, the parting of the Red Sea, Moses meeting God on the mountain … and this is the happy ending? But as Pastor J.D. shows us, the tabernacle functioned as the center of the Israelites walk with God. Not only that, but through Jesus, it can enrich our daily time with God as well.

Can God still bring life when everything feels dead, dry, and hopeless?This week, Pastor J.D. Georlett and theologian Keith Holmes unpack Ezekiel 37's powerful vision of the Valley of Dry Bones and what it means for those who feel worn out, stuck, or spiritually empty.They also explore Ezekiel 34, where God confronts failed leadership and promises to become the Shepherd His people desperately need.

As flawed human beings, sometimes we get complacent about following God. Our failures defeat us. And before long, we begin to compromise and let things slide. Pastor J.D. explains how we can find power and freedom in following Christ.

What happens when God's forgiveness is on the table… but pride won't let us take it?This week on the Dundee Church Podcast, Pastor J.D. Georlett and theologian Keith Holmes unpack one of the most tragic moments in Scripture: when King Jehoiakim burns the scroll containing God's Word — and another king, Zedekiah, wants help from God but refuses to obey.

If there's one aspect of God's character that most people wish they could erase from the Bible, it's God's wrath. In fact, the doctrine of hell is one of the most common answers people give when asked why they don't believe in God. But as we continue our powerful series called The Name, Pastor J.D. explains that God's wrath isn't just something we need to accept; it's actually a fact we can, and should, rejoice in!

This week at Mission Church, Pastor J.M. Lee continues our series in the book of Matthew with a powerful message from Matthew 14:34–15:20. In a world where outward religion often substitutes for real relationship with God, Jesus reminds us that what defiles a person is not what's on the outside—but what comes from the heart.Are we settling for clean hands while ignoring an unclean heart? Are we trusting in routines, traditions, and performance rather than Jesus Himself?In this sermon, we see that Jesus doesn't just expose the problem—He offers the only solution: a new heart, cleansed by grace and transformed by His Spirit.Mission Church www.missionlasvegas.com.

Pastor J. Bryant Lagoe Sunday School 5/4/25

 If you want to get to know someone, the first thing you do is introduce yourself, because knowing someone's name is an important part of your relationship with him or her. And you're never going to feel very close with someone if they always call you by the wrong name. So in this series, Pastor J.D. is helping us know God personally by knowing his name.

What is the presence of God like? Is it just a warm, fuzzy feeling, or an emotional worship encounter? For something we all want to experience, why can it seem so elusive? On this edition of Summit Life, Pastor J.D. takes us back to Moses' encounter with God on Mount Zion. We'll see how the presence of God changed Moses' goals and desires forever. And it will change us, too.

Pastor J. Bryant Lagoe Wednesday Evening 4/30/25

Some people imagine God as an absentee “watchmaker in the sky” who set the world in motion and then stepped away. They think he's probably out there, but there's no way to know what he's like. Others think of God as an unknown, impersonal force, without thoughts or emotions. But on this edition of Summit Life, Pastor J.D. kicks off a brand new series that's all about knowing God intimately. He titled this series, The Name.

Even faithful followers of Jesus can face fear and doubt. In this week's message, Pastor J.M. Lee walks us through Matthew 14:22–33, where we find Jesus sending His disciples into a storm — and then meeting them there with power and compassion. When Peter begins to sink, Jesus doesn't scold him — He saves him. Because it's not the size of our faith that matters — it's the strength of our Savior. Take heart: I AM is with you.Mission Church www.missionlasvegas.com

Like the disciples, we want to know the “how” and “what” of the Christian life. Pastor J.D. helps us see in this message that the Christian life, from start to finish, is a relationship with Jesus. Whatever you need, whatever you lack, wherever you are incomplete or broken, whatever you are missing in yourself or didn't get from someone else, Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life.

We tend to read the story of the Israelites making the golden calf and ask, “How could they?” But we fail to realize that what the Israelites were guilty of, idolatry, is the very thing that is behind all of our other sins. In this week's message from Exodus 32, Pastor J.D. shows us not only the danger of idolatry in our lives, but how we can escape it. Ultimately, what is bad news for those who reject Christ is actually good news for those who follow him: You become like what you worship. 

These days, it's not exactly popular to claim the existence of absolute truth. It's even less popular to claim that such truth is embodied in the person of Jesus, the one who is the only way to salvation. In this week's message from John 14, Pastor J.D. shows us the importance of what is perhaps Jesus' most controversial "I am" statement: "I am the way, and the truth, and the life."

Do you want to know how to find peace when you feel confused or afraid, when you don't know what to do with your finances or your kids or a big decision? Pastor J.D. continues to teach in this message how, when we fix our eyes on Jesus, the Good Shepherd, we can rest in his promise to give us peace and lead us in the way we should go.

Without shepherds to care for them, the threats posed to sheep run the gamut, from losing their way to being attacked by other animals. Simply put, sheep thrive under the guidance and protection of their shepherd. In this week's message from John 10, Pastor J.D. takes us through Jesus' claim to be the "good shepherd."

Does it feel like you're in a long “second day” of waiting before resurrection? In this message, Pastor J.D. looks at the story of Lazarus to teach us why sometimes God seems to delay his help or deliverance. One day soon, this whole veil of tears we call life will end in resurrection, and we'll see that, even when life felt like meaningless chaos, Jesus was never absent in our pain.

If we're honest, most of us have probably experienced disappointment with God at some point in our lives. We question why God didn't cure our friend's cancer, or why he didn't provide for us financially when we really needed it. Pastor J.D. walks us through Jesus' claim to be the "resurrection and the life," from John 11.

This week on Ask the Pastor, Pastor J.D. continues his series called, "Why Does It Matter?" with the question, "Why Does Correct Theology Matter?"

At Easter, we consider the cross and the resurrection, of course—but this consideration ultimately demands a response from us. It demands that a choice be made. In this Easter message, Pastor J.D. explains how Luke 23 is the dividing line of history, and the most important decision we will ever make is whether we are on the side of Jesus or not. For those who choose to put their faith in Jesus, we can say with confidence and joy, “Christ is risen! He is risen indeed!”

Most people think that surrender to Jesus means giving up our freedom. But when you surrender to Jesus and lean on him, it leads to freedom and abundance! Pastor J.D. continues in this message to show us how Jesus is a Good Shepherd who proved his commitment to us on the cross and now promises to use everything he lets into the pasture of our lives for good.

Doors and gates are things that we likely don't give much thought to until they are in need of repair—and while the truth is that they are usually constructed to keep people or animals out, they can also certainly be opened to let them in. In this week's message from John 10, Pastor J.D. explains perhaps the most overlooked of Jesus' "I Am" statements: "I am the door."

Jesus said in John 8:12 that those who follow him will not walk in darkness, which means that our lives will radiate with his light. In this message, Pastor J.D. continues to share how to look to the light of Jesus to be saved and then live in a way that glows with the knowledge that you belong to Jesus and Jesus belongs to you.

This week on Ask the Pastor, Pastor J.D. continues his series called, "Why Does It Matter?" with the question, "Why Does Everyday Faithfulness Matter?"

As humans, one of our most basic needs is food—when we don't have it, we experience discomfort, irritability, or even sickness or death. And yet, as unbearable as physical hunger can be, it is our spiritual hunger that we often neglect to address, to our own detriment. As we begin a series looking at the seven "I am" statements made by Jesus in the Gospel of John, this message from Pastor J.D. explores the first of these, from John 6. Jesus' claim to be the "bread of life" is a truth that we so desperately need in a world full of people who seek to satisfy their spiritual hunger with anything but Jesus.
