🪨 Don’t Throw the Stone Too Early Stop giving your enemy the title of champion when God has already shown you He is greater. In this message from October 4, 2026, we revisit the story of David and Goliath and explore how remembering God’s faithfulness changes the way we face our battles. Drawing from 1 Samuel 17:31–32, 1 Samuel 17:40–51, and Philippians 4:13, this sermon challenges us to stop focusing on what has gone wrong and start remembering how God has provided, delivered, and made a way. In this message, we explore: Why we need to look back at God’s faithfulness instead of dwelling on the badWhy we must stop giving the things we’re fighting the title of “champion”How God can turn what the enemy meant for evil into something goodThe significance of the five stones David carried into battleWhy timing matters and why we shouldn’t throw our stone too earlyHow remembering what God has already done gives us confidence to face what’s ahead This message reminds us that the giant in front of us doesn’t erase the faithfulness of God behind us. Before you face your next battle, remember who has brought you this far, trust in His strength, and be willing to wait for the right moment to release your stone.

❤️‍🩹 Are we too busy to love our neighbor beyond the moment they need us? In this message from October 18, 2026, we look at the parable of the Good Samaritan in Luke 10:25–37 and examine what it truly means to love our neighbors. This sermon challenges us to slow down, ask the Lord to reveal where we see ourselves in the story, and consider whether our busyness is keeping us from being present for those who need us. In this sermon, we talk about: Asking God to reveal which person in the story reflects our own heartsRecognizing the needs of those around us instead of passing them byGoing beyond getting someone out of immediate danger by providing the resources they need to healFollowing through and returning to make sure others have what they need to move beyond their broken places Loving others doesn’t always end when the immediate crisis is over. Sometimes, it means coming back, checking in, and continuing to provide support until someone has what they need to move forward. Are we making room in our lives to love people the way God has called us to? Full Service: https://youtu.be/jtSM8N4VsW4?si=O-o6uQUr_k6OAVnk

Pulling from Deuteronomy 7:6-9, 1 John 4:7-8, Deuteronomy 7:22-23 and 2 Corinthians 1:9-10 Pastor Frank weaves through the way the Lord loves us. Some highlights include: God chose you because of the love He has for you. An explanation of redeemed and how you can miss it. God is a gentleman, He will only drive out the things of the world from you if you let Him and believe that He will do it. It’s not your job to change others, it’s your job to pray for them to allow the experience of being changed by God. He delivered you before, He delivers you now, He will deliver you in the future.

🤓 Choose Your Friends Wisely  In this message from August 9, 2026 Joe breaks down friendships through the story of Jesus healing the paralytic. He pulls from Mark 2:1-12 and Isaiah 43:25. The story can also be found in Luke 5:12-26 and Matthew 9:2-8. As you listen to this message think of your own friends but also evaluate yourself as a friend.  Are your friends willing to work through obstacles to get you to Jesus?Don’t settle for friends who simply like you. Your worldly friends deserve Jesus as much as your Jesus friends do. Your faith can help save others but you are not their Savior. Just because you plant a seed doesn’t mean that you are the one with the watering can.  Full Service: https://youtu.be/_IUJwfFeSPM?si=K5PrUK_Yy1ijOqgf
