April 19th | Made For More | Acts 1 What if the movement of God you’re praying for doesn’t come through “professionals”… but through you? In this powerful message, Pastor Peyton Coker walks through the book of Acts to reveal how the Gospel didn’t just grow—it multiplied. From the early church to today, God has always worked through ordinary, everyday people living in the power of the Holy Spirit. Drawing inspiration from the bold faith of Martin Luther and the impact of the Protestant Reformation, this episode challenges the modern church to rediscover its calling: releasing the work of ministry into the hands of everyday disciples. You’ll explore: Why the Gospel is meant to multiply, not remain stagnantHow God uses ordinary people to accomplish extraordinary thingsWhat it looks like to live with bold obedience and Spirit-filled powerThrough Scripture, real-life application, and a call to deeper surrender, this message invites you to stop sitting on the sidelines and step fully into the life you were made for. The same Spirit that ignited the early church is still moving today. The question is—will you respond? Do you know JESUS? ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.nbgilmer.org/do-you-know-jesus⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Need PRAYER? ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.nbgilmer.org/pray⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Support through GIVING: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.nbbctx.org/giving⁠

April 19th | Made For More | Acts 2 7-13 In this powerful message, Pastor Matt Darby continues the Made for More series by calling every believer to rediscover their God-given purpose. Looking through Acts 7–13, we’re reminded that the early Church wasn’t built on a few extraordinary leaders—but on ordinary people who said “yes” to the Holy Spirit. From Stephen and Philip to Lydia, Barnabas, and even unnamed disciples, Scripture reveals a consistent pattern: God advances His Kingdom through everyday people who are filled with His Spirit and willing to live on mission wherever they are. Their lives were marked by bold faith, simple obedience, and an expectation that God would move supernaturally. So why does our experience sometimes look different? Pastor Matt challenges us to examine what set the early believers apart—and invites us into that same reality today. A Spirit-filled life isn’t reserved for a select few; it’s available to every follower of Jesus. When we surrender daily, obey the Spirit’s leading, and step out with courage, we become vessels God can move through in powerful ways. This message will stir your faith and push you to ask: Am I living with expectation that God will move?Where is the Holy Spirit prompting me to say “yes”?Have I settled for a comfortable, low-risk faith?You were made for more. The same Spirit, the same power, and the same mission are available to you—right where you live, work, and play. Do you know JESUS? ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.nbgilmer.org/do-you-know-jesus⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Need PRAYER? ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.nbgilmer.org/pray⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Support through GIVING: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.nbbctx.org/giving⁠

April 19th | Made For More | Acts 2 In this episode, Pastor Todd Kaunitz continues the Made for More series with a powerful reminder: your life was designed to outlive you. What if the way you live today could have eternal impact? Walking through key moments in the Book of Acts, Pastor Todd challenges a common misconception in Western Christianity—that church is just a place we go or a weekly event we attend. Instead, he paints a compelling picture of the church as a movement of people on mission. A body, not a building. A calling, not just a calendar activity. At the center of this message is a simple but transformative truth: God’s plan to change the world is through everyday disciples—people who are fully dependent on the Holy Spirit through prayer and boldly deployed as witnesses of Jesus in their everyday lives. You’ll explore how the early church, though lacking resources, influence, or wealth, turned the world upside down through a deep reliance on the Holy Spirit. Their secret wasn’t strategy—it was surrender. Their power didn’t come from programs—it came from prayer. From Jerusalem to the ends of the earth, ordinary believers stepped into extraordinary purpose, sharing the Gospel wherever they lived, worked, and went. And the same invitation stands today. This episode will challenge you to rethink your role in God’s mission, recognize your circle of influence, and respond to the Holy Spirit with bold obedience. You were made for more—and that “more” starts now. Do you know JESUS? ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.nbgilmer.org/do-you-know-jesus⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Need PRAYER? ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.nbgilmer.org/pray⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Support through GIVING: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.nbbctx.org/giving⁠

April 12th | Why Am I Alive? | Ephesians 2:4–10 Have you ever felt like your life has more potential than what you’re currently living—but you just can’t quite see it? In this powerful message, Pastor Peyton Coker unpacks Ephesians 2:4–10 to answer a foundational question: Why am I alive? Through a vivid illustration of a forgotten masterpiece—once used as a doorstop before its true value was discovered—you’ll be challenged to consider whether you’re living beneath the purpose you were created for. This sermon is part of the Made for More series, exploring how discovering your identity in Christ transforms the way you live. Pastor Peyton walks through three life-changing truths: You are alive in a new position—secure, seated, and sustained in ChristYou are alive with a new identity—not self-made, but God’s workmanship, His masterpieceYou are alive for a new assignment—created on purpose, for a purpose, with good works prepared in advanceIf you’ve been striving, feeling stuck, or defining your worth by your performance, this message will reorient your life in the right order: position, identity, then assignment. Stop living like something forgotten in a shed. You were never meant to be a doorstop—you were created to be on display. It’s time to discover your calling, embrace your identity, and step into the life you were made for. Do you know JESUS? ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.nbgilmer.org/do-you-know-jesus⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Need PRAYER? ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.nbgilmer.org/pray⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Support through GIVING: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.nbbctx.org/giving⁠

April 12th | Made For More | Ephesians 2:1–10 What if the most important question isn’t just “What happens when I die?”—but “Why am I alive?” In this message, Pastor Matt Darby continues the Made for More series by unpacking Epistle to the Ephesians 2:1–10 and revealing a powerful truth: every believer is created on purpose, for a purpose. Too many people drift through life feeling stuck, directionless, or quietly dissatisfied—even after salvation. But God never intended for us to simply exist. You were made for more. Discover what it means to be God’s “workmanship”—His masterpiece—and how your identity in Christ shapes your purpose. This message walks through the transformation from spiritual death to new life in Jesus, showing that we are not only saved by grace, but also saved for a purpose: to live out good works that glorify God and bring deep, lasting joy. Pastor Matt challenges listeners to rethink their identity, recognize their divine placement, and step into the calling God has already prepared. When you understand who you are in Christ, your life becomes a display of His grace—and your everyday moments become opportunities for heaven to touch earth. You’re not here by accident. You’re not without direction.You are His workmanship. It’s time to start walking in what you were made for. Do you know JESUS? ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.nbgilmer.org/do-you-know-jesus⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Need PRAYER? ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.nbgilmer.org/pray⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Support through GIVING: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.nbbctx.org/giving

April 12th | Made For More | Ephesians 2 What if something once dismissed as worthless was actually a priceless masterpiece all along? In this powerful message, Pastor Todd Kaunitz opens with the remarkable story of an 18th-century sculpture by Edme Bouchardon—lost, forgotten, and even used as a doorstop for years before someone finally recognized its true value. Once overlooked and discarded, it eventually sold for millions. The truth is, that story isn’t just about art—it’s about us. So many people live their lives stuck in a cycle of routine and survival, settling for temporary moments of fulfillment while missing their deeper purpose. But according to Ephesians 2, God sees something entirely different. You are not an accident, and you are not insignificant—you are His workmanship, a masterpiece created in Christ Jesus for a divine purpose. Pastor Todd unpacks how the Gospel doesn’t just rescue us from sin—it calls us into a life of meaning, mission, and impact. You’ll discover two life-changing truths: your position in Christ determines your mission, and your identity in Him drives your activity. You’ve been raised and seated with Christ—not to merely get through life, but to put God’s grace on display. If you’ve ever felt stuck, overlooked, or unsure of your purpose, this episode will challenge and encourage you to step out of the “doorstop” mindset and into the life God created you to live—a life that truly outlives you.

April 5th | Easter Sunday | 1 Corinthians 15 On a scale of 1–10… how certain are you that you’re going to heaven? In this compelling Easter message, Pastor Payton Coker tackles one of the most important—and unavoidable—questions every person must face: What happens when I die, and how can I really know where I’m going? While most people believe in heaven, there’s no clear agreement on how to get there. Is it about being a good person? Being spiritual? Or is there something more certain? Walking through 1 Corinthians 15, Pastor Payton points to the only true foundation for confidence: the gospel of Jesus Christ. This message unpacks four essential truths—Jesus really died for our sins, Jesus really rose from the grave, Jesus really transforms our lives, and we must truly stand in Him. The cross is the payment. The empty tomb is the receipt. And a transformed life is the evidence. This isn’t just about having a “ticket to heaven”—it’s about being made alive right now. When someone encounters the risen Jesus, everything changes. Old patterns break, new desires form, and a real, lasting hope takes root. If you’ve ever wrestled with doubt, wondered if you’ve done enough, or questioned where you stand with God, this message will challenge you to answer honestly—and show you how you can move from uncertainty to complete confidence. You don’t have to live at a 6, 7, or 8.Through Jesus, you can be a 10.

April 5th, 2026 | Easter Sunday | 1 Corinthians 15 What’s going to happen when you die? It’s the question no one can avoid—and the one that matters more than anything else. In this Easter message, Pastor Matt Darby challenges us to honestly evaluate our answer: On a scale of 1–10, how certain are you that you’re going to heaven? While most people believe in heaven, there’s no clear agreement on how to get there. Some trust in being a good person. Others follow a personal or spiritual path. But according to Scripture, there is only one way to have true certainty. Walking through 1 Corinthians 15, Pastor Matt unpacks the foundation of the gospel and what it means for your eternity. You’ll discover three essential truths: Jesus really died for our sins, Jesus truly rose from the grave, and Jesus actually transforms lives today. The cross is the payment—but the empty tomb is the receipt that proves it’s been paid in full. This message goes beyond belief as an idea and presses into transformation as evidence. Because when you encounter the risen Jesus, you don’t stay the same. New life begins now—and it carries into eternity. If you’ve ever wondered whether your faith is real, whether you’ve done enough, or where you truly stand with God, this message will help you move from uncertainty to confidence. You don’t have to guess.You don’t have to hope.In Jesus, you can know.

April 5th, 2026 | Easter Sunday | 1 Corinthians 15 What happens when we die—and can we actually be certain?In this powerful Easter message, Pastor Todd Kaunitz explores what he calls the inescapable question: How can we know for sure that we will go to heaven? While many try to ignore death, trust in their own goodness, or adopt vague spiritual beliefs, none of these paths provide real peace or certainty.Walking through 1 Corinthians 15, this episode centers on the foundation of the Christian faith—the death and resurrection of Jesus. Pastor Todd unpacks three life-altering truths: Jesus really died for our sins, Jesus truly rose from the grave, and through Him, we can be made spiritually alive both now and forever.The resurrection isn’t just a hopeful idea—it’s the proof that sin has been paid for in full and that death does not have the final word. Because of this, we don’t have to live in fear or uncertainty. We can live with confidence, courage, and a secure hope for eternity.This message will challenge you to honestly answer the question: How certain am I? And it invites you to find lasting assurance not in what you’ve done—but in what Jesus has already finished.

March 29th, 2026 | No Other Gospel | Galatians 3:15-29 In this message from our No Other Gospel series, Pastor Daniel Norris walks through Galatians 3:15–29 and unpacks a powerful truth about who we are because of Jesus. Before Christ, we were held captive—imprisoned under the weight of the law, unable to save ourselves. But the law was never meant to rescue us; it was meant to reveal our need for a Savior. Through God’s promise, fulfilled in Christ, everything changes. Now, in Christ, we are no longer prisoners—we are sons and daughters of God. Fully accepted. Fully covered. Fully loved. And through Christ, we are heirs to the promise, united as one family, no longer defined by our past, our status, or our differences. This message is a clear and compelling reminder: you don’t earn your identity—you receive it by faith. The gospel doesn’t just forgive you; it gives you a new name, a new standing, and a new future. Whether you’re exploring faith or need to be reminded of who you are in Jesus, this episode invites you to stop striving and start living in the freedom of the true gospel. There is no other gospel.

March 29th, 2026 | No Other Gospel | Galtatians 3:23-29 In this message from our No Other Gospel series, Pastor Matt Darby unpacks Galatians 3:23–29 and calls us back to the freedom and identity found in Jesus. Galatians reminds us how easy it is to drift. We begin with grace, but somewhere along the way we start measuring ourselves by performance—relating to God like employees instead of sons. Without realizing it, we slip back into the very bondage Christ died to free us from. Pastor Matt walks through three powerful movements in this passage:Before Christ, we were captive. In Christ, we are sons. Through Christ, we are heirs. The law was never meant to save us—it was meant to expose our need for a Savior. But through faith in Jesus, everything changes. We are no longer imprisoned by our inability to measure up. We are fully accepted, fully covered, and brought into the family of God with the standing of heirs. This message is a clear reminder that your identity is not something you earn—it’s something you receive. In Christ, you are no longer defined by your past, your performance, or others’ opinions. You are defined by what God says is true: you belong. If you’ve been striving to prove your worth or struggling to live in freedom, this episode invites you to return to the gospel—where grace defines you, and freedom is yours. Are you living like who you used to be—or who Christ has made you to be?

March 29th, 2026 | No Other Gospel | Galatians 3:23-29 In this message from our No Other Gospel series, Pastor Payton Coker walks through Galatians 3:23–29 to answer one of the most important questions we can ask: How does God actually see me?It’s easy to drift from grace into performance—measuring our worth by what we do rather than what Christ has done. But the gospel tells a better story. The law was never meant to save us; it was meant to show us our need for a Savior. And through faith in Jesus, everything changes.Pastor Payton unpacks three identity-shaping truths from this passage:You are a recipient of the full inheritance. You are a member of a united family. You are an heir of the promise.No longer defined by striving or comparison, believers are fully accepted as sons—given the complete rights, access, and inheritance of God’s family. In Christ, there are no second-class citizens, no divisions that define our worth—only a new identity rooted in grace and a unity that the world cannot produce.This message is a powerful reminder that your relationship with God is not based on performance, but on promise. You don’t have to wonder where you stand—you belong.Are you living like you have to earn your place… or like a child who’s already been given everything in Christ?

March 22nd, 2026 | Standalone | Ezekiel 37 In this powerful message from Ezekiel 37, Peyton Coker invites us to wrestle with a deeply personal question: Are you ready for revival? Through the vivid image of the valley of dry bones, this episode confronts the reality that many of us, though busy and outwardly put-together, are spiritually dry, exhausted, and even lifeless. Peyton walks through the subtle ways idolatry takes root in our lives—whether through success, comfort, relationships, or approval—and shows how these “good things” can quietly replace God, leaving us empty. But this isn’t a message of condemnation—it’s a call to hope. As the passage unfolds, we see that revival isn’t something we manufacture through effort or emotion. It’s a supernatural work of God. True transformation requires something deeper than behavior change—it requires heart surgery. Through the power of God’s Word and the presence of His Spirit, what is dead can live again. This episode unpacks the beauty of that process: surrender, dependence, and the miracle of new life in Christ. You’ll be challenged to move beyond surface-level faith and invited into a life marked by both truth and Spirit—where real change, freedom, and joy take place. Ultimately, this message points to Jesus—the One who was crushed so we could be made whole, who took our place so we could receive new life. Because of Him, dry bones don’t stay dry, and hopeless hearts don’t stay broken. If you’ve been feeling stuck, numb, or spiritually distant, this episode is a wake-up call and an invitation: revival is possible—and it starts within. Are you ready?

March 22nd, 2026 | No Other Gospel | Galatians 3:1-14 In this episode, Pastor Matt Darby walks through Galatians 3:1–14, confronting one of the most subtle yet dangerous drifts in the Christian life—adding to Jesus. At the heart of Paul’s message is a call to freedom: “For freedom Christ has set us free.” Yet many believers, then and now, fall back into a kind of spiritual slavery—trying to earn God’s approval through effort, discipline, and performance. Pastor Matt unpacks why this mindset isn’t just exhausting—it actually distorts the gospel. When we try to supplement Jesus with our own works, we’re no longer trusting in the finished work of Christ. With clarity and urgency, this message explores the difference between justification and sanctification—showing that both begin and continue the same way: by faith through the Holy Spirit. Growth in the Christian life isn’t about “white-knuckling” obedience; it’s about surrendering to the Spirit who transforms us from within. You’ll also be challenged to rethink what faith really means—not just believing in Jesus, but resting fully in what He has already accomplished. From Abraham’s example to the cross of Christ, this episode reminds us that faith has always been the way to be made right with God. Ultimately, Pastor Matt brings it to a powerful conclusion: you are either striving under the impossible weight of the law, or standing in the freedom of Christ who became a curse in your place. If you’ve been trying to prove yourself to God—or quietly treating Jesus as an add-on to your life—this episode will call you back to the true gospel and the freedom found in Christ alone.

March 22nd, 2026 | No Other Gospel | Galatians 3:1-14 In this episode, Pastor Todd Kaunitz unpacks a powerful truth from Galatians 3 that challenges a common struggle in the Christian life: forgetting what got us here. While we receive salvation by grace through faith in Jesus, many of us drift into believing that spiritual growth depends on our own effort. The result? Exhaustion, pride, or apathy. Through Paul’s bold words to the Galatians, Pastor Todd reminds us that the same faith that justifies us is the very faith that sanctifies us. We don’t begin by the Spirit and then mature by our own strength—we are transformed continually by the ongoing work of the Holy Spirit within us. This message explores the difference between striving in the flesh and surrendering in faith, showing how spiritual disciplines are not about earning righteousness but participating in what God is already doing in us. From Abraham’s example to the finished work of Christ, we’re reminded that God’s plan has always been rooted in faith—not works. If you’ve ever felt stuck, weary, or unsure in your walk with God, this episode will re-center your heart on the gospel—not just as the starting point, but as the entire foundation of the Christian life. Remember what got you here—and don’t forget who you are.
