What if a simple story could change the way you live forever? Jesus often used everyday moments to reveal profound, life-altering truths about the kingdom of God. In this four-week series from Luke 13–19, we will unpack classic parables that use seeds, coins, doors, and more to inspire us to practice good Kingdom stewardship and live with an eternal perspective. In today’s sermon, our final parable is The Parables of The Rich Man & Lazarus from Luke 16:14-31. Jesus uses a story of the afterlife to highlight the urgency of the gospel in this life. Open your heart to God’s Word today, because death leaves no room for another chance.

In today’s sermon, our second set of parables is The Parables of The Kingdom from Luke 13:18-30. Jesus uses a seed, yeast, and a narrow door to reveal the significance and urgency of the Kingdom of God. He is building a Kingdom that is expanding everywhere, but entering it demands an individual step right now.

In today’s sermon, our first parable is The Parable of The Ten Minas (or Talents) from Luke 19:11-26 & Matthew 25:14-30. Jesus uses a story of stewardship and investing to teach us the we each have been given a gift from God that He expects us to use.

In Luke 11 and 12, Jesus pulls back the curtain on the subtle heart-traps that sabotage our faith, divide our communities, and drain our spiritual momentum. It’s easy to point fingers at the historical "villains" of scripture, but Jesus shows us how those same destructive traits can quietly creep into our own lives. In today’s sermon, we expose the fourth of our four villains, The Sleepwalker, from Luke 12:35-48 and his plan for apathy and unfaithfulness. The Sleepwalker entices us to be distracted and depleted. Jesus calls us to be alert and ready. One has urgency to receive the Kingdom; the other misses it entirely.

In today’s sermon, we expose the third of our four villains, The Hoarder, from Luke 12:13-34 and his plan for greed and self-reliance. The Hoarder entices us to worry and store up. Jesus calls us to trust and give generously. One depends on the Kingdom; the other depends on self.

What kind of church will we build? In Matthew 16:13-18, we discover Jesus’ heart and purpose for His Church and what it means for us to be part of what He is building. In today’s message, guest speaker Pastor Mel Mullen challenges us to see the Church as more than a building or Sunday gathering, but as a people who are called, connected, equipped, and sent. Together, let’s discover what it looks like to BUILD JESUS A GREAT CHURCH!

What does it look like to develop a thriving prayer life? In Luke 11:1-13, Jesus teaches His disciples not only how to pray, but how to approach the Father with intimacy, trust, and persistence. As we clear the noise, release bitterness, and keep knocking, we discover that prayer isn’t about convincing God to care—it’s about trusting His heart. We can come to Him with confidence because we know who is on the other side of the door.

What does it mean to actually follow Jesus even when the crowd is thinning out? We are studying Luke 9 & 10 to discover the life-giving reality of true discipleship. Jesus sets a radical standard to be His FOLLOWERS. In today’s sermon, we look at the high cost of discipleship (Luke 9:23-27) as we learn that FOLLOWERS count the cost & pay the price. As FOLLOWERS, we gladly surrender everything we have because we know the reward of Christ is infinitely greater than the cost.

Welcome to Back To School Sunday! Today is all about getting our families ready for another school year and reminding our church of the importance of investing in the next generation. Today’s service includes a combo of adult & keiki worship, celebrating our keiki graduates, and praying over every family in our church. In today’s sermon, we learn about the significance of generational discipleship from Paul’s letter to Timothy. Generational discipleship is intentionally investing in younger believers to pass on God’s transformational work and guide them in following Jesus.

Jesus sets a radical standard to be His FOLLOWERS. In today’s sermon, Christel Pope takes us through the Greatest Commandment and the Good Samaritan (Luke 10:25-37) as we learn that FOLLOWERS show radical love. Followers of Jesus display radical love by showing the same compassionate, selfless action towards others that Christ first showed to us.

Jesus sets a radical standard to be His FOLLOWERS. In today’s sermon, we continue our three-part study of two passages of Jesus sending out His disciples to proclaim the Kingdom (Luke 9:1-11, 10:1-24) as we learn that FOLLOWERS go in His power. Both these passages follow the same rhythm: the sending (His power), the going (His provision), and the returning (His perspective). As FOLLOWERS, we go on mission in His power, His provision, and His perspective.
