Jake continues our Seek First sermon series by taking us through Matthew 6:19-34.
We wrap up our series on living in the second mile by looking at the second metaphor that Jesus uses to describe his follower - Light. What did he mean by calling us light and how does that impact not just our own personal lives but the influence we have on others? Join us as we take a deep dive on the importance of light in our lives and how that translates to our everyday spiritual lives and our encounters with darkness. We also look at the results on our culture and nation when the church and individual Christians "hide their lights".

In Matthew 5:13, Jesus calls his followers "Salt". Of all the metaphors you could think of to describe Christians, salt does not sound like much of a compliment. What did he mean by describing Christians as salt and how does that relate to the second Mile? Join us to uncover why "salt" fit perfectly when describing the church and what can happen when a Christian or church loses it's saltiness.

Who is John the Baptist (Sermon Series on John) - Sunday, 11th January 2026[Episode 5 - John Chapter 1 KJV]1 Who are you John?John 1:19 And this is the record of John, when the Jews sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem to ask him, Who art thou?2. John declares himself a voice crying in the wildernessJohn 1:20-23 And he confessed, and denied not; but confessed, I am not the Christ. And they asked him, What then? Art thou Elias? And he saith, I am not. Art thou that prophet? And he answered, No. Then said they unto him, Who art thou? that we may give an answer to them that sent us. What sayest thou of thyself? He said, I am the voice of one crying in the wilderness, Make straight the way of the Lord, as said the prophet Esaias.3. John declares the superiority of Jesus.John 1:24-28 And they which were sent were of the Pharisees. And they asked him, and said unto him, Why baptizest thou then, if thou be not that Christ, nor Elias, neither that prophet? John answered them, saying, I baptize with water: but there standeth one among you, whom ye know not; He it is, who coming after me is preferred before me, whose shoe's latchet I am not worthy to unloose. These things were done in Bethabara beyond Jordan, where John was baptizing.

While most Christians strive to actively pursue all of the characteristics we have discussed for living in the second mile from Jesus's teachings on the Beatitudes, there is one that we actively avoid - persecution for being a follower of Jesus. Around the world today in places like Nigeria and Syria, Christians are not only facing terror and persecution for following Jesus, many are facing death. While here in America, persecution seems rare for Christians as we have been protected by our Constitution and our foundation on Judaeo/Christian values, that might not always be the case. In our passage, Jesus makes clear that for his followers, persecution is as much a reality as meekness or mercy - it is something that should be expected. Join us as we discover why Christians face persecution, how we can prepare for it and why Jesus would say that it is actually a gift. From Matthew 5:10-12.

The Bible talks a lot about purity and being pure at heart but what does that mean? Is that something that God does for us or do we play a role in it - or both? Join us for this message on another characteristic that is evident in the lives of those who want to live in the second mile as Christians. We explore the confusion behind what it means to be "justified" and "sanctified" and how purity of heart has the potential to open our eyes to actually be able to see God move in our lives and in the world around us.

What if all the Christmas pageants and all the nativity sets in the world are wrong? What if there is both more and less than meets the eye? Join us for the message “The Nativity According to Luke.”
In Week 3 of In The Neighborhood, we turn to Jesus' final words in Matthew 28:16–20 and see that Christmas is a story of mission. The God who came near in Christ now sends His people out with purpose.Jesus' promise to be with us always transforms the way we understand the Great Commission—not as a burden, but as a continuation of the Christmas story. Because God came to us, we now go to others, carrying the good news of His presence into our neighborhoods, workplaces, and everyday relationships.This message challenges us to see mission not as something distant or optional, but as a natural response to the God who is with us.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!

When do we most resemble Jesus? When do our actions and behaviors cause others to see Jesus in us the most? While Jesus tells us that the world will know we are His disciples "by our love", in Matthew 5, he identifies another characteristic that allows us to be most recognizable as Children of God. This morning we look at what does it really mean to experience "the peace that passes understanding" and how that impacts our personal relationships. What does being a "peacemaker" look like lived out in our everyday lives?

As we step into this season where we celebrate Christmas with those we love, I want to continue speaking into Love & Honor - the very principles that strengthen our homes, relationships, and faith. These are not just ideas we talk about; they are foundations that determine how we live, how we love, and how we walk with God.
In Week 2 of In The Neighborhood, we look at Jesus' teaching in Matthew 18:15–20 about how His people are called to deal with conflict. The main idea of this message is clear and hopeful: Jesus is God with us together.Rather than ignoring hurt or allowing division to grow, Jesus gives His church a path toward honesty, repentance, forgiveness, and restoration. And He promises that when we pursue unity in His way, He is present with us.This episode explores how Christian community is strengthened not by avoiding conflict, but by bringing it into the light—because Jesus meets us there.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 today's culture we once again find the idea of being merciful or offering mercy to be politicized and considered a weakness - the same was true in the 1st Century during the life of Jesus Christ. That is one of the reasons that the "Good Samaritan"s " actions in the parable in Luke 10 are considered controversial. It was much easier then and now to stay disengaged and not get involved. To rationalize in our mind that "they got what was coming" or maybe even "better them than me", but Jesus turned that idea on its head by calling his followers to be merciful not because someone deserves it but simply because if we are truly his followers we have been offered so much mercy from God that we can't help but show mercy to those around us. Join us as we look at our 5th characteristic of someone who can live and thrive in the 2nd Mile.

This week, Pastor Tony shares one last time in our Sermon Series on Marriage and Family and talks about how the delight you desire as a parent is found in the diligent discipline of your sons and daughters.
In Week 1 of our new series In The Neighborhood, we look at the miraculous announcement of Jesus' birth in Matthew 1:18–25. This message centers on the truth that in Jesus, God makes His home with us.Through the name Immanuel, meaning “God with us,” we discover that God doesn't keep His distance—He steps into our world, our struggles, our stories. This episode invites you to consider what it means that God draws near, not abstractly, but personally, in Christ.Listen in as we explore how Jesus' arrival changes the way we see God, ourselves, and the people around us.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!
