  • Faith That Stays, Loves, and Stands - Hebrews 13:1-6
    Jan 26 2026

    What does real faith look like when pressure shows up?In this message, we explore how God’s abiding presence reshapes ordinary faithfulness. When God is trusted as present and sufficient, love doesn’t fade when it’s inconvenient, contentment grows even when resources feel uncertain, and courage rises when fear would seem reasonable.This passage reminds us that love, generosity, and confidence aren’t conditions for salvation. They’re fruit. They’re evidence of a faith anchored in God’s promise to never leave or forsake His people.In this sermon, you’ll hear: • Why pressure reveals what we’re really standing on • How God’s nearness produces active, outward-focused love • Why contentment is rooted in trust, not circumstances • How confidence grows when God’s presence becomes more real than fear • How Jesus fulfills every command in this passageWhether you’re walking through uncertainty, feeling spiritual fatigue, or simply wanting a faith that endures, this message points us back to the most stabilizing truth of the Christian life.

The shaking described in this passage isn’t chaos or cruelty. It’s clarity. God removes what cannot last so that what truly matters remains.If your confidence has been tied to circumstances, systems, or structures that feel unstable, this passage calls you to something better. God isn't trying to scare us. He’s inviting us to receive a kingdom that cannot be shaken.

  • Two Mountains. One Choice. - Hebrews 12:18-24
    Jan 5 2026

    Many people believe in God, yet live as if closeness with Him is risky.They show up.They listen.They obey.But deep down, they keep their distance.In Hebrews 12:18–24, Scripture puts us between two mountains. One marked by fear, distance, and trembling. The other marked by joy, welcome, and confident access into God’s presence.This sermon explores the difference between approaching God through fear and approaching Him through Christ. It shows how Jesus fulfills the law, removes the barrier of guilt, and invites believers to draw near with confidence and joy.If you’ve ever felt like you were allowed to be present with God but not fully welcome, this message is for you.
