2 Samuel 23, 1 Chronicles 11-12 / January 5-6, 2026 Somewhere back in time, you and I were given a faulty set of instructions. Somewhere we learned that only the most famous or the star athlete or the most publicly gifted individual is worth our time and attention, our respect and our loudest applause. But in reality, if it wasn't for the people who surround them, these well-known individuals would quickly fade in popularity and become among the most commonplace.

1 Peter 1:11:1 Peter, an apostle of Jesus Christ,To those who are elect exiles of the Dispersion in Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia...John 1:35-421:35 The next day again John was standing with two of his disciples, 36 and he looked at Jesus as he walked by and said, “Behold, the Lamb of God!” 37 The two disciples heard him say this, and they followed Jesus. 38 Jesus turned and saw them following and said to them, “What are you seeking?” And they said to him, “Rabbi” (which means Teacher), “where are you staying?” 39 He said to them, “Come and you will see.” So they came and saw where he was staying, and they stayed with him that day, for it was about the tenth hour. 40 One of the two who heard John speak and followed Jesus was Andrew, Simon Peter's brother. 41 He first found his own brother Simon and said to him, “We have found the Messiah” (which means Christ). 42 He brought him to Jesus. Jesus looked at him and said, “You are Simon the son of John. You shall be called Cephas” (which means Peter).Luke 5:1-115:1 On one occasion, while the crowd was pressing in on him to hear the word of God, he was standing by the lake of Gennesaret, 2 and he saw two boats by the lake, but the fishermen had gone out of them and were washing their nets. 3 Getting into one of the boats, which was Simon's, he asked him to put out a little from the land. And he sat down and taught the people from the boat. 4 And when he had finished speaking, he said to Simon, “Put out into the deep and let down your nets for a catch.” 5 And Simon answered, “Master, we toiled all night and took nothing! But at your word I will let down the nets.” 6 And when they had done this, they enclosed a large number of fish, and their nets were breaking. 7 They signaled to their partners in the other boat to come and help them. And they came and filled both the boats, so that they began to sink. 8 But when Simon Peter saw it, he fell down at Jesus' knees, saying, “Depart from me, for I am a sinful man, O Lord.” 9 For he and all who were with him were astonished at the catch of fish that they had taken, 10 and so also were James and John, sons of Zebedee, who were partners with Simon. And Jesus said to Simon, “Do not be afraid; from now on you will be catching men.” 11 And when they had brought their boats to land, they left everything and followed him.

In this message titled "Intentional", Pastor Chad Veach kicks off a brand new series with a powerful word about living on purpose, with purpose. Preaching from Isaiah 53 and throughout the gospels, Pastor Chad highlights the intentional life of Jesus—His deliberate rejection, His confrontational message, and His total surrender to the will of the Father. This sermon unpacks how Jesus was rejected by His own people, by crowds, by religious leaders, and even by those closest to Him. But even through every rejection, Jesus remained faithful to His mission—and invites us to live the same way: deliberately, faithfully, and fearlessly. If you've ever felt overlooked, misunderstood, or pushed aside, this message will remind you that you're in good company. Jesus was, too. At Zoe, our mission is simple: People Saved, Disciples Made, Leaders Raised, and The Church Released. Through every service, we seek to share the love and hope of Jesus, impact lives, and see transformation in communities in Los Angeles and around the world.

Matthew 6:5-15 - Speaker: Chad Hunsberger - Jesus provides a clear explanation of prayer by providing a marvelous example of prayer for us to follow. His example of humility and boldness are ideal in our desire to imitate Him. Join us this Sunday as we dive into the Lord's Prayer from Matthew 6.
At the heart of the gospel is the doctrine of union with Christ – we are in Christ, and he is in us. As we continue exploring this transformative reality, we turn from death to resurrection. In this sermon, we consider the simple yet profound truth that union with Christ produces life.

In 1 Samuel 10, Saul is anointed as Israel's first king—but when it's time to step up, he's found hiding among the baggage. In this message, we explore how fear often disguises itself as humility, how our baggage becomes a place we hide instead of heal, and why God still calls us forward anyway. If […]

Luke 9:22-25 / January 1-2, 2026 No one wants to look back at the end of the year and see wasted time. No one hopes to drift aimlessly through life, doing things without at least some lasting value. The difficulty lies in the fact many of us simply don't know what we need to do to give life purpose. Well, Jesus has three answers—three “musts”—for each of us.

Preaching the Word and sharing the Gospel isn't about sharing your opinions or viewpoints. Sharing about Jesus is about sharing about Jesus. Nothing more, and surely nothing less. Anytime you get the chance to hear or share about Jesus, you should always fact-check with the Word of God! In today's message, Pastor Mark will share that you should even fact-check what he preaches. You shouldn't take any pastor's word for it; you should always check with the Bible and see what truth is and what may be an opinion. There is no mistaking the Bible, so make sure you know the Word, so you can share the Word!

She is a Colombian peace practitioner, with a MA in Development Project Management, studies in Peace and Conflict Transformation at Kroc Institute, Notre Dame University in the United States; and a Diploma in International Development Cooperation, Peace Institute, Oviedo University, Spain.Visit www.catholicwomenpreach.org/preaching/01012026 to learn more about Martha Inés, to read her preaching text, and for more preaching from Catholic women.
