“In a world filled with pain and chaos, how can the resurrection of Jesus still be Good News?”In this powerful Easter message, Jon Dupin unpacks 1 Corinthians 15 and shows us why the resurrection isn't just a story from the past—it's the foundation of our hope today.If Jesus didn't rise, faith is empty, sin wins, and death is the end. But because He did rise, we have real hope, real power, and a promise that what's broken won't stay that way.Through honest storytelling and biblical truth, this message invites you to see resurrection not as an instant fix—but as the beginning of restoration in you and the world around you.

On Resurrection Sunday 2025, Pastor Jon shares a powerful message that reminds us: there's always more to the story.Through the parallel of Abraham and Isaac's intended sacrifice, and the ultimate fulfillment through Jesus at the cross, we see God's unchanging plan of redemption woven across time.Join us as we celebrate the risen King — and discover the deeper hope found in the greater story God is still telling today.Check out our social media for a visual guide!

This Easter Sunday, Pastor Jon addressed our need to become “God conscious” and receive the hope and life found in Jesus' resurrection. John's gospel account includes Mary Magdalene's discovery of Jesus' empty tomb and resurrected body, and this story displays how a personal encounter with the living God sparked a movement of hope that is still going forth today. Pastor Jon encouraged those grieving the brokenness of the world and seeking hope to investigate the state of their hearts and consider pursuing a life that is “God-conscious."

The resurrection is a time of revelation for each of us. What is the empty tomb to us?

We often carry things from our past, whether it be hurt, shame addiction, anger, or worry. But Jesus has more for us than the things of our past. When we place our faith in Jesus, we become a new creation--old things pass away, and everything becomes new. He is inviting you to let go.This week, Pastor Jon shares a passionate message on what it means to follow Jesus, and to fully embrace the freedom He has to offer.

Join Pastor Jon Ewton this Easter at Woodlands Church as he dives into the vital importance of authenticity in our faith. Through the stories of the thief on the cross, doubting Thomas, and Mary Magdalene, Pastor Jon demonstrates how Jesus welcomed real, flawed individuals into relationship with Him. This message challenges us to discard the "fake" personas we often present and instead embrace honesty about our struggles: our sin, our doubts, and our pain. True freedom and healing are found not in pretending, but in coming to Jesus exactly as we are. Learn how to cultivate genuine connection with Christ and experience the transformative power of the resurrection in your own life.

On this Palm Sunday, Pastor Jon Dupin delivers a powerful message about the arrival of King Jesus. Not with force, but in humility, riding on a donkey. Drawing from Zechariah 9 and Luke 19, this sermon challenges us to examine what's holding back our praise and proclamation.In a world where comfort, cynicism, and fear often keep our faith quiet, we are reminded that Jesus is worthy of public, passionate, and vocal worship. If even the stones would cry out, how much more should we?1. Learn why your voice matters2. Discover the courage to share your Jesus story3. Step into a life of bold worship and witness4. This week, let your praise be louder than your fear.

This Sunday, Pastor Jon Tyson closed out our Missional Formation series with a call to follow Jesus' lead in making discipleship the heart of our mission. Throughout this series, we have established a radical minimum standard through what Church of the City believes are the nine core competencies of being disciples in the Kingdom of Heaven. While God has done remarkable things in this season, Pastor Jon led us back to the question that began this series: Is our plan for discipleship working?

Pastor Jon shares a special, Palm Sunday message titled "He Humbled Himself", based on Philippians 2:6-11.

In Pastor Jon's sermon, he emphasizes the importance of looking beyond the veils that separate us from experiencing the fullness of Christ's glory and power. He discusses the significance of Jesus' unveiling in Revelation, highlighting the awe and fear we should have before the true nature of God, which helps to dispel our other fears. Pastor Jon encourages believers to engage in a physical posture of humility, such as bowing, to deepen their prayer life and intimacy with Jesus, transforming discipline into delight. Finally, he reinforces the urgency of accepting Jesus' invitation for fellowship and repentance, reminding us that He is returning both as a conquering King and a personal Savior. Speaker: Jon Gaus

In this powerful message, Pastor Jon dives deep into the significance of the Last Supper and what it means for us today through the lens of the old and new covenants. At the heart of communion lies a powerful invitation—a call to community, to nourishment, to covenant, and to choice.Under the Old Covenant, God instituted animal sacrifices as a temporary covering for sin. But in the New Covenant, Jesus Christ becomes the ultimate and final sacrifice, offering complete forgiveness and reconciling us to God.The communion table represents so much more than a symbolic act—it's a place of community, where we come together as the body of Christ. It's a place of consumption and nourishment, reminding us that Jesus is the bread of life who sustains us. It's a place of covenant, where Jesus doesn't abolish the law but fulfills it, establishing a new and better promise. And ultimately, it's a place of choice—where each of us must decide whether we will sit at the table with Christ or remain outside of His blessing and saving grace.There is room for everyone at Christ's table. The question is: Will you choose to sit with Him?

Hebrews

Today, we had special guest, Pastor Jon Randall bring the word to our congregation. God's people is what makes up the church, so for The Church to be Spirit-Filled, the people of God must be Spirit-Filled.

This week, Pastor Jon continued our Missional Formation series with a teaching on vocational mission and workplace prayer, addressing the tensions many Christians face in bringing these areas together. Since God created humankind for the purpose of work, and we will spend at least one third of our lives at work, it's crucial that we examine how work fits into our discipleship. Pastor Jon exhorted us to imagine the history shaping impact of a community of people living on vocational mission by committing to lives of contending prayer and redemptive work, and invited us to be a part of it.
