Most of life runs on a deal: you give me this, I'll give you that. Marriage is the one relationship that was never supposed to work that way — and yet it's so easy to slide into keeping score anyway. In Week 3 of Sex, Love, Work and War, we open Ephesians 5 to ask what it actually looks like to love and respect someone with no conditions attached.Along the way: why couples who deeply love each other can still feel completely unloved, why every guy secretly wants to be a hero, and why the real question isn't "would you die for your spouse?" but "what does love look like on an ordinary Tuesday?"This isn't a message about trying harder to have the perfect marriage. It's about a God who didn't wait for us to go first — and what changes in a marriage when that's the model.
God's goal isn't simply to make us successful—it's to make us whole.

Marriage isn't a contract—it's a covenant. In this episode, Pastor Jared and Pastor DJ unpack what biblical marriage looks like and why lasting relationships require humility, sacrifice, trust, and putting your spouse first.They discuss practical ways to build unity through communication, transparency, finances, priorities, and mutual submission. From shared budgets to protecting intentional time together, covenant marriage means choosing oneness over a “mine vs. yours” mindset.Whether you're married, dating, or engaged, this conversation challenges us to build relationships God's way and recognize the red flags that can keep us from true intimacy.
What does genuine saving faith look like? In James 2:14–26, James teaches that works never lead to saving faith, but saving faith always produces works.Pastor Jared examines four examples of faith and explains that saving faith is more than words, right theology, or an emotional experience. True faith looks to Jesus, repentance of sin, trust in Christ alone for salvation, and produces fruit.
In 2026, we're slowing down to soak in the story that invites us to believe. The Gospel of John doesn't just tell us what Jesus did—it reveals who He is. Through signs and stories, questions and conversations, light and life, John calls us again and again to “come and see.” Over the next year, we'll walk with Jesus from the opening words—“In the beginning”—to the empty tomb, discovering how encountering Christ shapes our faith, our hope, and our everyday lives. This is more than a study; it's an invitation to deeper belief and fuller life. Learn more with Pastor Jared.

Pastor Jared Richard opens Exodus 32–34 by grounding the sermon in Romans 15:4, where Paul reminds us that everything written in the Old Testament was written for our instruction, that through endurance and the encouragement of the Scriptures we might have hope. With that foundation laid, Pastor Jared sets out to answer one of the most important questions the Bible addresses: how can a holy God continue to dwell with a continually sinful people? It's not just Israel's question — it's ours, too, for every one of us has sinned, and some of us have confessed the same sins to the Lord over and over again for years. The answer unfolds through Israel's devastating act of treasonous rebellion — the golden calf — and four conversations between Moses and God that follow. In each conversation, we see what the people deserved because of their sin: to be consumed by God's wrath, to wear the guilt of their sin forever, to be abandoned by God's covenant love, and to be kept at a distance from His presence. And in each conversation, Moses intercedes, pleading with God on their behalf, and God — merciful, gracious, slow to anger, and abounding in steadfast love — responds with mercy rather than the full measure of judgment the people had earned. But the real gift of this passage, Pastor Jared argues, is what it teaches us about Jesus. Moses was a faithful mediator, willing even to offer his own life in the people's place, but he was unfit because he was not holy. Jesus is the better Moses — the one who doesn't merely pray these mercies into being, but actually accomplishes them. He bore God's wrath so we could be spared. He wore our guilt so we could be forgiven. He was forsaken so we could be loved. He was cast out into death so God could dwell in our midst. That is the Gospel according to Moses, and it is the hope every sinner desperately needs. WE'D LOVE TO HEAR FROM YOU!

God's conviction is a gift, not something to fear. In this podcast, Pastor Jared and Pastor DJ explore how the "red flags" God gives us are loving warnings that help protect our relationships before they lead to hurt. Whether you're single, dating, married, or divorced, healthy relationships don't happen by accident—they're built through intentional choices, wise boundaries, and consistent effort. Learn practical, biblical principles for recognizing red flags, building trust, strengthening your marriage, and pursuing relationships God's way.
What is the baptism of the Holy Spirit, and is it still for believers today?In the final message of our More series, Pastor Jared Ming walks through Scripture to explain the baptism of the Holy Spirit, the gift of speaking in tongues, and why God desires every believer to experience the fullness of His Spirit. Through biblical teaching and personal stories, this message reminds us that God always has more for those who are hungry for Him.Whether you're exploring this topic for the first time or looking to grow deeper in your walk with God, this message will encourage and challenge you to pursue everything God has for your life.Timestamps0:00 Welcome0:20 Introduction2:12 Continuing the More Series3:13 God's Gift for Every Believer5:12 What Is the Baptism of the Holy Spirit?6:37 Speaking in Tongues Explained8:08 Why Would God Give Us a Spiritual Language?9:17 You Don't Have to Speak in Tongues to Be a Christian12:44 Is the Baptism of the Holy Spirit for Today?16:26 Why the Early Church Encouraged Every Believer to Receive It21:33 "There's More" – The Snickers Pie Illustration22:24 Four Benefits of the Baptism of the Holy Spirit24:01 A Powerful Missionary Story28:09 Praying in the Spirit Builds You Up29:14 Praying the Perfect Will of God30:26 A Story of God's Protection Through Prayer34:30 Power to Share Your Faith35:24 A Method for Praising God36:14 The Holy Spirit Speaks Through You, Not for You41:01 Invitation to Follow Jesus44:43 Prayer to Receive More of the Holy Spirit47:39 Pursue More of God48:24 Revival Night InvitationIf this message encouraged you, be sure to like, subscribe, and share it with someone who needs it.

Aug. 2, 2026 What if the way you work says more about your faith than you realize? In Ephesians 6:5-9, Paul reframes ordinary work with an eternal perspective: whether we are leading, serving, managing, or simply showing up, we ultimately work before Jesus. This message challenges us to stop cutting corners when no one is watching and start seeing our workplace as a place of worship. When Christ is our true Master, our work becomes more than a job—it becomes a witness. About this Sermon Series: God has always had a plan. The book of Ephesians reveals the incredible story of God's plan to bring salvation to all people through Jesus Christ and unite them into one family. In this 13-week series, we'll discover what it means to live with purpose as people who have been chosen, redeemed, and called by God. Along the way, we'll explore how the Holy Spirit transforms our everyday relationships—with family, friends, the Church, and the world around us. Ephesians is an invitation to step into God's greater story and live the kind of life we were created for.

We all know the basics: tell the truth, don't hold a grudge, be a good person. But when Paul gets practical about the "new self" we have in Christ, he doesn't point to the mission field — he points to the dinner table. Your spouse. Your kids. Your coworkers. The people who see the worst version of you are the people who know you best. In this message, we walk through four ordinary battlegrounds — truth, anger, work, and words — and find the same truth behind every one of them: you've received grace from God, and now you get to give it away.

In part 6 in our series on the Book of James, Pastor Jared shares a challenging message on taming the tongue and allowing The Holy Spirit to be in charge of our tongue.
In this sermon from Exodus 25–31, Pastor Jared Richard opens with a memorable story about a pop quiz designed not to test knowledge, but to form students into the kind of people who slow down and follow directions. In the same way, he argues, God's exhaustive instructions for building the tabernacle were never merely architectural — they were formational. God wasn't just building a tent; He was building a people. Every act of sacrifice, service, and submission called for in these chapters was designed to both express something true about God's worth and press that truth deeper into the hearts of His worshipers. Yet Pastor Jared is careful to surface a tension in the text: sinful people cannot draw near to a holy God simply by doing the right things. Even Israel's most faithful worship was compromised by their sin, and they needed a High Priest to carry them into God's presence and make their offerings acceptable. This points unmistakably forward to Jesus — the true and better High Priest — whose spotless blood, offered once and for all, tears the curtain, cleanses the conscience, and brings us with Him into the presence of the Father. As Hebrews 9:14 declares, "How much more will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without blemish to God, purify our conscience from dead works to serve the living God?" Finally, Pastor Jared draws attention to the Sabbath command that closes this section in Exodus 31:13, arguing that rest — not work — was always the destination. The tabernacle was built so God's people could dwell with Him and rest in His presence, a foretaste of the eternal rest still to come. The call to the congregation is clear: stop striving, find your rest in Christ alone, and live as faithful worshipers not to earn that rest, but from that rest — with hearts set on the day when God's people will dwell fully and freely in His glory.

Pastor Jared sits down with Kelly Ramsland, founder and CEO of Zoe Hope, to talk about the heart behind global missions and why One Life is partnering with this incredible ministry. Learn how medical mission trips open doors to share the love of Jesus, how Zoe Hope is creating lasting impact in Tanzania, and why anyone—medical background or not—can be part of God's mission. This conversation will inspire you to see how serving others can transform communities and deepen your own faith.
In James 2:1–13, Pastor Jared challenges us to examine how we treat the people around us. God calls His people to reject favoritism, see others through the eyes of Christ, and live out the royal law by loving our neighbors as ourselves. Having received God's mercy, may we become people who joyfully extend that same mercy to others.
This week, Pastor Jared uses the illustration of a caper briefing to describe the series of instructions the book of James will go one to lay out in the following chapters.

You can tell a lot about a person just by watching them — sawdust on their clothes, grease on their hands, how they react when a flight sits on the tarmac for an hour. But God isn't just interested in what shows up on the outside.In this message from 922 Ministries' St. Peter campus, we look at Ephesians 4 and discover that God never came to improve the old you. He came to make you completely new — starting with the heart, not the behavior.

Join us this week for the third message in our series, "God Is," with Pastor Jared Clausen.
This week, Pastor Jared reminds the congregation that they are called to be a kingdom of priests, not just pastors or worship leaders. He emphasizes that every believer has the same Holy Spirit and is equipped to share the gospel. The sermon focuses on four key lessons from Luke 9: humility, unity, purpose, and counting the cost of discipleship.
Pastor Jared teaches through 1 Kings 14–15, the story of Jeroboam, the first king of the divided northern kingdom of Israel. Jeroboam had a clear promise from God, but fear over losing the people's loyalty led him to build a counterfeit system of worship instead of trusting what God had already said. That choice cost him everything he was trying to protect. The passage also follows Judah's king Rehoboam, who fell into the same patterns as those around him, and young King Asa, who trusted God over his own logic even when doing right meant standing against his own family.
In this sermon from Exodus 25, Pastor Jared Richard takes the church on a guided tour through the tabernacle, unpacking one of the most important visual aids in all of Scripture. From the outer courtyard's bronze altar and basin, through the holy place with its lampstand, table of bread, and altar of incense, all the way to the ark of the covenant resting in the holy of holies, every element was deliberately designed by God to communicate something true about Himself — His majesty, His heart, and His holiness. Just as God enriched Israel with Egypt's plunder to build this dwelling place, every piece of that tent was a declaration that the God who brought them out of bondage still desired to be in their midst. Yet the tabernacle also holds a deep tension at its center: God draws near to His people, but His people can only come so close. The veils, the restrictions, the cherubim guarding the inner room — all of it echoed back to the Garden of Eden, where sin first separated humanity from God's presence. Even the holiest of priests had to be ritually cleansed, and even then, the glory of God remained veiled and partial. The sacrifices offered on the bronze altar could allow for God's presence among His people, but they could not fully erase the distance that sin had created. The resolution to this tension, Pastor Jared makes clear, is Jesus Christ — the true and better tabernacle. As John 1:14 declares, "The Word became flesh and dwelt among us" — and that word dwelt literally means tabernacled. Jesus is God's glory walking the dusty roads of Galilee without a veil, welcoming children into His arms, and ultimately tearing the temple curtain at the moment of His death (Matt. 27:51) so that all who repent and believe can finally draw near to the Father. And because of His finished work, the Spirit of God now lives in His people (1 Cor. 6:19), making the church itself the living tabernacle — called to display God's majesty, heart, and holiness to a watching world.

Pastor Jared sits down with Pastor Bryan Bigger to unpack what it means to keep your spiritual fire burning. From Romans 12:11, they discuss why passion for God doesn't happen by accident, how comfort and distraction can quietly weaken our faith, and the simple daily rhythms that help us stay close to Jesus. They also explore how community, perseverance through trials, and a life centered on God's calling can keep our faith strong. If you've ever felt spiritually stuck or ready for a fresh start, this conversation will encourage and challenge you to live with renewed passion for Christ.
Pastor Jared teaches from Ephesians 2:10 on being God's workmanship, made to do good works he planned for us ahead of time. He explains that this isn't about earning salvation but living out the love God has already given us in everyday moments, through prayer, encouragement, and simple acts of care for others. Drawing from Isaiah 40, he unpacks what it means to wait on the Lord, not passively, but with hope and trust that renews our strength. Even hard seasons become part of how God shapes us to comfort and strengthen the people around us.
Pastor Jared delivers a sermon on Luke 9:37-44, focusing on the disciples' inability to cast out a demon and Jesus' teaching on faith. He explores why believers struggle to trust God despite witnessing His past faithfulness, using the mustard seed analogy to encourage planting and growing faith. The sermon challenges listeners to stop living in the 5-20% of what they don't understand and instead trust God based on what He has already done.
God is not just someone we worship on Sundays—He is someone we trust every day.
Pastor Jared delivers a message on the Transfiguration of Jesus from Luke 9:28-36, exploring the significance of Moses and Elijah appearing with Jesus. He connects the event to Old Testament prophecies and emphasizes that Jesus is the ultimate fulfillment of the Law and the Prophets. The sermon concludes with a warning against idolizing people or ministries, urging listeners to focus on Jesus and read the Bible for themselves.

Celebrate true freedom this week as we dive into a powerful, line-by-line study of 1 John Chapter 1. It is easy to feel close to God on Sunday morning, but what happens when Monday rolls around and the daily pressures of life take over? In this message, Pastor Jared breaks down a vital spiritual habit and principle that allows us to move past Sunday-only faith and live in daily, experiential freedom. By exploring the deep connection the Apostle John had with Jesus, we discover that Jesus is a real person who actively invites every single one of us into Koinonia—a deep, 24/7 shared partnership and fellowship. But walking in this light requires radical honesty. God does not demand our perfection; He requires our honesty. Learn what it truly means to step out of the darkness of hiding, how to rightly confess your struggles before God and trusted people, and how to receive the ultimate healing care of the Great Physician.

Preached by Pastor Jared on July 5, 2026.The bronze serpent in the wilderness was originally a powerful symbol of salvation, but over time it became an idol unto itself that needed to be destroyed. Yet Jesus does not minimize the bronze serpent's original intent but rather preaches it accurately. How do we allow good things to become idols in our lives?
