Would you wash your enemy’s feet? In John 13, Jesus does something shocking He kneels down to wash the feet of His disciples, including the one who would betray Him. This moment shows us that true greatness isn’t found in power or position but in humility, service, and love. In this message, we look at how Jesus used His final hours before the cross to model service over status, and what that means for us today. When we follow His example, even toward people who hurt or oppose us, we reflect the heart of Christ and point others to the Gospel.

What does it mean to give a defense for our faith, and why does it matter? We are called to always be ready to share the reason for our hope and to stand firm in what has been entrusted to us. A strong foundation strengthens our faith, equips us to engage graciously with unbelievers, and helps us support fellow believers who wrestle with doubts. It also calls us to study, to love God with our whole mind, and to rely on His power to tear down false arguments and lead thoughts captive to Christ.

God still speaks, and the question is whether we are listening. From the very beginning of creation until today, His voice has brought life, direction, and truth. Yet there is always a battle over hearing and believing His words. In this message, we look at what Scripture says about God’s voice, how He spoke in the beginning, how He is speaking right now, and how we can grow in hearing Him personally. If you have ever wondered how to discern God’s voice or if He still speaks today, this teaching will encourage you to listen, lean in, and respond.

Prayer isn’t just a routine; it is the key to what happens next in your walk with God. In this message we discover what it truly means to pray like Jesus taught His disciples. Together we explore the priority of prayer and why it is central to following Christ, the posture of prayer and how humility and delight shape our approach to God, the pattern of prayer and what every prayer should include such as worship, repentance, asking, and listening, and finally the accessibility of prayer which reminds us that it is not about performance but about God’s nearness and our complete dependence on Him. Prayer is intimate, relational interaction with the Father, and whether you are just beginning or have been walking with Jesus for years, this message will help you go deeper in conversation with the God who bends down to listen.

We’re continuing our series on spiritual maturity by talking about how to study the Bible so you can live it and teach it. Last week we looked at sanctification, the process of being set apart by God for relationship with Him and partnership in His work. This week we’re digging into what that partnership looks like through Matthew 28:19-20 and the call to make disciples, baptize, and teach. The truth is you can’t teach what you don’t know, and spiritual maturity requires more than just an encounter with Jesus it requires formation through His Word. Together we’ll walk through 2 Timothy 3:16 and see how Scripture equips us through teaching, reproof, correction, and training in righteousness. We’ll look at how to study the Bible through observation, interpretation, and application, and why it matters that we each know God’s Word for ourselves. Along the way we’ll touch on Psalms 1, Philippians 4, and close with the charge in 2 Timothy 4:1-5 to be ready in and out of season to teach and live the truth.

Following Jesus is a journey of transformation and sanctification. It begins when we go “in” through Him, continues as we go all in with our lives, requires us to go without the things that hold us back, and calls us to go all the way through the refining process. Sanctification is not instant. It is the ongoing work of the Holy Spirit shaping us into the image of Christ. Even with rough edges, God is faithfully making us holy and completing the good work He began in us.

Have you ever prayed and felt like everything was quiet? In this message we explore what Scripture teaches us about those moments when God seems silent. From Elijah’s waiting to Job’s cries to the stillness in Revelation, we see that silence does not mean absence. God is never doing nothing and He is never saying nothing. Together we’ll discover why God may appear silent, how to respond with faith, and the steps we can take when we feel like we cannot hear His voice, including doing the last thing He told us to do, remaining in community, worshiping even still, praying all the more, and trusting that He is faithful.

Waiting isn’t easy, but it’s never wasted. In this message, we look at the life of David and what it really means to wait on God well. From the moment he was anointed to the day he became king, David learned patience, faithfulness, and obedience in the quiet seasons. God’s will only happens God’s way and in God’s time. While you wait, He’s not withholding, He’s preparing. Whether it’s learning to hope with patience, remembering how God’s been faithful before, serving others right where you are, or seeking His voice daily, this season is doing something in you. Don’t rush it. God’s timing isn’t just good, it’s perfect. And when the promise comes, you’ll be ready to hold it.
