Pastor Matt beings the summer series on the 'sermon on the mount'.

Pastor Matt continued our series on the Minor Prophets today with an further look at the book of Jonah. This time, we focused on chapters 2 and 3, delving into the qualities of Jonah's prayer to God, the nature of what was missing in that prayer, and the Ninevites' response to his message.

In Week 5 of our From Here On... series, we look at Peter's bold sermon in Acts 2:14–41 and see how the heart of the gospel—and the heart of our lives—is Jesus. From prophecy to resurrection, from grace to power, Peter proclaims that Jesus is the fulfillment of God's promises and the center of our hope. Drawing from passages like 1 Corinthians 15 and Isaiah 53, Pastor Matt reminds us that Jesus isn't just part of the story—He is the story. From here on, it's all about Jesus.For more information about Integrity Church, visit our website, http://liveintegritychurch.org Connect with us on social media throughout the week to stay up to date on events and things happening at Integrity!

A message from Pastor Matt!

In this sermon, Pastor Matt explores how to respond to faith-shaking illnesses, accidents, or deaths. He begins by acknowledging that life runs on two rails: celebrating good things and dealing with difficult realities. The pastor shares personal experiences with health issues, accidents, and loss to illustrate his points. The main focus is on four key responses: 1. Turn immediately to God: Pastor Matt emphasizes the importance of talking directly to God rather than about Him. He discusses various names of God that reveal His nature and ability to help, such as Jehovah Shalom (the Lord is peace) and Jehovah Rafa (the Lord who heals). 2. Admit when we need support from others: The pastor reminds us that God created us for relationships and that we sometimes need others to help bear our burdens (Galatians 6). 3. Give ourselves permission to mourn: He acknowledges that grief is a natural response to loss and that it's important to work through it with God and community support. 4. View our circumstances as opportunities to share Jesus: Pastor Matt encourages seeing difficult situations as chances to demonstrate faith and share Christ with others. Throughout the sermon, he reinforces the message that God is close to the brokenhearted and rescues those whose spirits are crushed (Psalm 34:18).

This Sunday May 18, 2025 Pastor Matt continued our series on the Sermon on the Mount and read from Matthew chapter 6 verses 1-8, and verses 16-18. Join us to hear about how Jesus tackles the hypocrisy of the Pharisees!

In part two of their social media conversation, Pastor Matt and the team get honest about how Christians should engage online. From internet outrage cycles to personal attacks on faith, they unpack the temptations and pitfalls of digital discourse—and offer a better way forward. They talk about the dangers of anonymous criticism, the algorithms that amplify conflict, and the pressure to weigh in on every controversy. You'll hear practical advice on what not to post, why face-to-face beats Facebook, and how even a homebound church member can powerfully minister through a screen.

This week, Pastor Matt explores what Jesus called "abundant life" in John 10 and how we can experience that in the here and now.

As we continue our verse-by-verse series through the Gospel of John, Pastor Matt teaches from John 11:45-57. In a world chasing convenience and control, the Gospel calls us to courageous surrender—stepping into God's redemptive story to bring hope to our neighbors, cities, and nations.

Ever feel like you're doing your best, but something deeper still feels off? Like there's a weight you can't quite shake or a pull back to patterns you thought you'd left behind? We all have moments where we wonder if real change is possible.This message from Colossians 1:13–14 unpacks the powerful truth that we don't have to rescue ourselves. Jesus has already done it. Through his own river rescue story, Pastor Matt shows how Christ pulls us from the darkness we can't escape on our own and transfers us into something brand new—a kingdom life marked by redemption and transformation.Whether you're exploring faith or need a reminder of what's true, these two verses offer both comfort and challenge: if you've trusted Christ as your Savior, you belong to a new kingdom now, and you don't have to go back to what once held you captive.

Senior Sunday, Pastor Matt gives a message on “Faith in Transition,” encouraging graduates and the entire church to trust God in the in-between. Through personal stories, scripture, and practical wisdom, he reminds us to enjoy the journey, practice gratitude, and keep our minds fixed on Christ in every season of change.

Sonship // Pastor Matt Heck

Pastor Matt looks at Matthew 10:5-10. Most of us live carrying things, holding on to baggage that Jesus has said to lay it down. Jesus has redeemed us from our baggage, our pains, our burdens. You dont have to carry them along your life's journey.

Pastor Matt reconvened our series on the Minor Prophets today with an introductory exploration of the book of Jonah. By delving into the entirety of chapter one, we gain profound insights into the severe dangers and repercussions that arise when individuals resist the call of God.

Sunday May 11, 2025: Pastor Matt continues teaching on the assurance and glory availed only in the wilderness. As sons and daughters we no longer see the wilderness through any other lens except that exclusively of the Father's jealousy for us. A jealousy to establish, root, and build a land of promise; first in us and secondly around us.

A Mother's Day message from Pastor Matt!

This Sunday May 11, 2025, Pastor Matt continued our series on the Sermon on the Mount and read from Matthew chapter 5 verses 38-48. Join us to hear about how Jesus calls us to deal with retaliation and our enemies !

This sermon, part of the "Unshakable Faith" series, addresses the topic of doubt and how to overcome it through faith. Pastor Matt begins by acknowledging that doubt is a universal human experience, affecting even spiritually mature individuals. He uses Mark 9:14-29 as a case study to illustrate how Jesus responds to doubt. The sermon outlines five general truths about doubt: 1. It's easy to have faith on the mountaintop but hard not to doubt in the valley. 2. Doubt can be a sign of a broken connection with God. 3. Doubt prevents us from experiencing God's power. 4. Jesus only requires a small amount of faith. 5. Reading the Bible and prayer are essential tools for overcoming doubt. Pastor Matt emphasizes that prayer is God's "power pipeline," connecting us to His unlimited resources. He explores five causes of doubt and how prayer can help in each situation: 1. Difficult circumstances 2. Intellectual arguments 3. Imperfect Christians 4. Spiritual dryness 5. Recurring sins Throughout the sermon, Pastor Matt encourages listeners to confront their doubts with faith, reminding them that God is present and willing to help overcome doubt through His word and prayer.

In Week 4 of our From Here On... series, we step into the powerful moment of Pentecost in Acts 2:1–13. This pivotal event marks not only the birth of the Church but the unleashing of God's mission to the nations—fueled by the power of the Holy Spirit. As we see in scripture and from voices like NT Wright, Sam Storms, and John Piper, the purpose of mission is worship: to see all peoples rejoice in the greatness of God. Pastor Matt reminds us that from here on, we are called to Spirit-empowered witness that invites the world into the transforming joy of God's glory.For more information about Integrity Church, visit our website, http://liveintegritychurch.org Connect with us on social media throughout the week to stay up to date on events and things happening at Integrity!

In this episode, Jenna Wright and Pastor Matt dig deeper into questions from John 13:36-14:31

True lasting peace can only be found through a relationship with Jesus Christ, the King of Peace. His humble entrance into Jerusalem on a donkey symbolized His approachability and desire for personal connection. Finding peace requires recognizing life isn't about us, understanding our greater purpose, and fully submitting to Jesus as King. In this sermon on Luke 19, Pastor Matt teaches how you can have peace with God.

Baptism in The Holy Spirit - Pastor Matt Sena by King's Gate Church

Promotion is the byproduct of a life that is consecrated to God.

At the Movies Week 1: Let's be real — sometimes life feels like a mess, and faith gets put on the back burner. You've prayed, messed up, avoided the call, and maybe even ghosted God. But guess what? You're still here, and that means God's not done with you. This episode dives into Jonah's wild story — not just the fish part — but the part where God uses a runaway prophet to spark a whole-city revival. It's about second chances, real obedience, and speaking up even when it's awkward. If you've ever felt unqualified, disconnected, or like someone else could do it better — this is your sign. You've got people around you who need what you carry. And the question is: are you gonna sit in the whale, or are you gonna get up and go?

Pastor Matt continues the series on honor.

May 4th, 2025 | Prayer of Desperation | Jonah 2In Week 2 of our series in Jonah, Pastor Matt Darby unpacks Jonah's prayer from inside the fish and challenges us with a powerful question: Am I desperate for God? More than a story about a runaway prophet, Jonah is a mirror that reveals our own hearts—especially when we've been running, resisting, or relying on ourselves. In Jonah 2, we see how spiritual desperation strips away illusions of control and self-sufficiency, leading us to the kind of surrender where real healing begins. Pastor Matt shows us that desperation isn't something to avoid—it's the onramp to spiritual transformation. If you're tired of striving, drowning in pressure, or trying to fix your life in your own strength, this message is a call to stop fighting and start trusting the only One who can truly rescue and restore.Do you know JESUS? ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.nbgilmer.org/do-you-know-jesus⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Need PRAYER? ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.nbgilmer.org/pray⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Support through GIVING: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.nbbctx.org/giving⁠

A message from Pastor Matt!

In this sermon, Pastor Matt explores the concept of serving from God's perspective and provides practical reasons for serving. He emphasizes three main points about serving from God's viewpoint: 1. Serving is an assignment, not just volunteering. God has given each believer a specific role in His kingdom work. 2. Our gifts are for ministering, not just consuming. God has equipped us with abilities to serve others and advance His kingdom. 3. Serving is about an altar, not a container. Even when we don't see immediate results, our service is an offering to God. Practically, Pastor Matt explains that we serve because God first served us through Jesus Christ's sacrifice. We also serve because God has gifted us for service and provided us a place in His church. Additionally, serving blesses others by meeting their needs and sharing the gospel. Finally, we ourselves are blessed when we serve, growing in our faith and becoming more like Christ.

In this second podcast on Christians and pornography, we take an honest look at how porn quietly wrecks marriages. Pastor Matt breaks down why getting married doesn't fix a porn problem—and how that belief often sets couples up for heartache. We talk about the real consequences: unrealistic sexual expectations, emotional distance, and more. Matt shares hard-earned wisdom from years of counseling: what actually helps, what doesn't, and why real repentance—not just getting caught—is the key to lasting change. We also get practical: from locking down your phone and reshaping your routine to learning how to talk to your spouse and choose the right accountability partner.
