Reflecting on his own experience of losing his wife after a three-year battle with brain cancer in her early thirties, John offers a deeply personal message about faith, grief, and hope. Through Joseph's words, "You meant evil against me, but God meant it for good," he shows how God can use suffering to shape our character, strengthen our faith, and turn our pain into a ministry that impacts others.

Send us Fan MailWHEN GOD CALLS YOU BEYOND YOURSELFDesert, Community, Project | Part 3Senior Pastor Keith StewartJune 14, 2026What do you do when God asks you to do something that feels impossible? The disciples faced a hungry crowd of thousands with only five loaves and two fish. Their first response was the same as ours: "We don't have enough." But what if the greatest obstacle isn't a lack of resources? What if it's forgetting who we're with? This Sunday, we'll explore one of Jesus' most famous miracles and discover a life-changing truth: God never intended for us to be the source—only the distributors of what He places in our hands. Join us for Part 3 of our series, Desert. Community. Project."WHEN GOD CALLS YOU BEYOND YOURSELF" In-person and online at Springcreek Church.DISCUSSION QUESTIONS Icebreaker Tell about a time when you were asked to do something that felt completely beyond your ability, resources, or experience. How did you respond? Digging Into the Message Read Mark 6:30-44. Why do you think Jesus first called His disciples to a solitary place before involving them in ministry to the crowd? Pastor Keith described the desert as a place of: Separation | Preparation | RevelationWhich of those purposes resonates most with your current season of life? Why? Henri Nouwen suggests that solitude reveals things we've been avoiding. What are some common distractions people use to avoid facing themselves or God? Jesus looked at a crowd of hungry people and felt compassion. What is the difference between sympathy, pity, and genuine compassion?The disciples saw a problem. Jesus saw an opportunity. When you face a challenge, are you more likely to focus on what you don't have or on what God might do through what you do have? Top-Down or Bottom-Up? The message contrasted "bottom-up" thinking with "top-down" thinking. What is the difference? Can you think of an example from your own life where you've approached a situation from each perspective? Why do you think it is so easy to forget what God has done in the past when we encounter a new challenge? What "five loaves and two fish" has God already placed in your hands that you may be overlooking? Living the Sacred Rhythm One of the key ideas from the message was:"The disciples were never the source."How does that truth challenge the pressure many Christians feel to produce results? The miracle happened as the disciples kept returning to Jesus for more. What does daily dependence on Christ look like in practical terms? Which part of the rhythm needs the most attention in your life right now?Desert (being with God)Community (walking with others)Project (serving others) What is one concrete step you can take this week? Closing Reflection Read this statement aloud:"Their responsibility was not to manufacture the miracle. Their responsibility was to stay close to the One who could." Spend a few moments discussing:Where do you feel pressure to "manufacture" results?What would it look like to trust Jesus deeply in that area? Prayer Pray for one another, asking God to: Draw you deeper into the desert place of communion with Him.Strengthen your relationships in Christian community.Show you where He is calling you to participate in His work.Give you faith to trust Him with the impossible.

Join Senior Pastor Chuck Angel for Week 2 of our new series, 250 IN 360: Biblical Perspectives for America.   This message calls us to move beyond criticism and embrace a priestly posture of humility, repentance, and intercession. As believers, we are called to stand in the gap for others, just as Daniel and Nehemiah did, confessing “our” sins and seeking God's mercy. Like the friends who carried the paralyzed man to Jesus, we may not be able to change people ourselves, but we can bring them to the One who can. True revival begins when God's people humble themselves, pray, and seek His grace for our nation (2 Chronicles 7:14)

For this message, we are looking at the Huldah, a prophet from the time of King Josiah. This message considers the truth of Scripture about God's role for women, especially as prophets, through the lens of Huldah's life. It is an encouragement that, as God tells us in Joel, he does and will continue to pour out His Spirit on women that they would prophesy. It also includes a warning against treating prophecy with contempt, or treating women who prophesy with contempt, because then we are treating the Spirit with contempt. Minister & Senior Pastor, Jim Samra This was recorded live in Grand Rapids, MI on June 14, 2026

Artificial intelligence can generate outlines, summaries, illustrations, and sermon-like content in seconds. But should preachers use it? And if so, how?In this episode of the Expositors Collective podcast, Mike Neglia hosts a live panel discussion with Bob Franquiz, Pilgrim Benham, Ryan Marr, and Alan Stoddard on AI, ChatGPT, pastoral integrity, and the future of sermon preparation.Rather than simply asking whether AI can save time, the panel presses into deeper questions. What happens to the preacher when the work of sermon preparation is delegated to a machine? Can technology glorify God, or can it train us to depend less on prayer, study, Scripture, and the Holy Spirit? Where might AI serve as a limited tool, and where does it become a dangerous substitute?Pilgrim Benham reflects on the moral weight of technology and warns against treating tools as spiritually neutral. Ryan Marr offers a thoughtful, contrarian perspective on the formative effects of AI in the life of the preacher. Bob Franquiz speaks to the limits of ChatGPT, reminding listeners that AI can generate words quickly, but it cannot pastor people, carry a burden, or replace the preacher's communion with God in the text. Mike Neglia also suggests a narrow and cautious way AI might be used after a sermon draft is mostly complete, as a tool for clarification rather than creation.The central concern of this conversation is not fear of technology, but faithfulness in ministry. Preachers are called to study, pray, think, shepherd, and proclaim. AI may assist with certain tasks, but it cannot replace the spiritual and pastoral work of preaching.This conversation was recorded at an Expositors Collective preacher training event in St Petersburg, Florida.As a sidebar, the panel also ends with discussion on mentoring relationships, spotting future leaders, "overpreparing" early in ministry, the value of reading while you are young, and the difficult question every preacher faces: how do you know when a sermon is actually done?Featured guestsBob Franquiz is the Founding and Senior Pastor of Calvary Fellowship in Miramar, Florida. He is the author of seven books, including Pull: Making Your Church Magnetic and Begin: First Steps for the Journey of Faith. Before entering pastoral ministry, Bob played guitar for the Christian hardcore band Strongarm, often regarded as one of the most influential Christian metal bands of its era. Prior to planting Calvary Fellowship, he served as an assistant pastor at Calvary Chapel Fort Lauderdale. Bob holds a Ph.D. in Bible Exposition from Liberty University and a master's degree in theological studies from Trinity Evangelical Divinity School. He and his wife, Carey, have been married since 1997 and have three children: Mia, Alexander, and Olivia.Pilgrim Benham has planted churches and pastored since 2002.

Listen to our recent message from our Senior Pastor, Miles Fidell–preaching live from our ACC Atlanta location!

Salvation is much more than God forgiving our sins. For all who have believed in Christ, we become heirs to God's kingdom. In this message from Romans 8, Pastor Lutzer shows how the Spirit leads us and the Father adopts us. Let's learn how the Bible describes the riches and blessings that are ours as God's children.
