Jesus Holds Us Together | Colossians 1:15-18 | Pastor Andy Rock

Sometimes, we easily trust Jesus when all is well. But in moments of fear and worry, we doubt that 'Jesus will hold this, and us, together.' Why? Because we often have a specific outcome in mind, desiring control over situations and people, even if our assumptions lead us astray. Yet, trusting Jesus means surrendering completely. He has something better for us, so we let go of our desired outcomes. When we're wrong, Jesus lovingly guides us with all we need because we're united with Him. He sustains us, reigning supreme over all. So, why insist on our way and timing? Jesus is utterly trustworthy. Will you trust Him with us?

Rescued | Colossians 1 | Pastor Andy Rock

You and I have been liberated from the clutches of darkness. Dominion, in its essence, signifies absolute control over everything within its grasp. Darkness's dominion equates to enslavement – a state of being separated from Jesus, where every attempt to solve a problem only compounds it, perpetuating a vicious cycle of bondage. But rejoice, for we have been rescued! In Christ, we are no longer shackled to our former ways. We are free! Every time we stumble, Jesus uplifts us through one another. We are saved. We are no longer slaves. It’s time to embrace the freedom found in Jesus and rejoice in our redemption.

The Armor of God pt 2 | Ephesians 6 | Pastor Andy Rock

Arm yourself with prayer—God's Word spoken over your heart, family, and the lost. Infuse every situation with the hope of the Gospel, speaking truth and trusting the Holy Spirit. Don't carry the sword as dead weight; wield it confidently. Hold onto gratitude and faith, listening to Jesus and believing. Victory is not avoiding suffering or perfect outcomes; it's seeing God's Kingdom come. Winning is standing with those who want to flee, facing the fight with joy and love, and collectively being unstoppable in our battle.

The Armor of God | Ephesians 6:10-13 | Pastor Andy Rock

Martin Luther King Jr. once wrote, “The ultimate measure of a follower of Jesus is not when they stand in moments of comfort and convenience, but when they stand at times of challenge and controversy.” When those around you are angry, stand and be strong in the Lord by both receiving and giving away His gentleness, compassion, and kindness. When you feel confused and lost, run to your Heavenly Father in prayer, standing in the hope that He gives wisdom to any of His children who ask for it.

Rest in Him | 1 Kings 19 | Pastor Kurt Pflegl

Can you imagine Elijah’s joy when he finally saw his circumstances from God’s perspective? This gives him all the energy he needs to finish the work God laid out for him, right up until the moment he left this world behind. God invites us to do the same, to constantly surrender our perspective to Him and receive His in exchange. That’s resting in Him.

Jesus is Confident in You…Seriously | Ephesians 5 | Pastor Andy Rock

Something mysterious happens when we submit ourselves to God and to one another. We speak words of love to each other like God is speaking to us. We sense the needs of those we love and move towards them. Romance will bloom. Friendships will grow. You won’t see your kids as problems to solve or manage, but souls you just love. Do you want this?

Submitting is Not What You Think | Ephesians 5:21-33 | Pastor Andy Rock

Submitting to each other isn't about fear or avoiding punishment; it's a choice born out of trust and love for God. If fear taints our understanding of submission, we've allowed the enemy to steal our trust in God. Reflect on where you struggle to trust Him and reclaim what has been taken. When you trust and submit to Jesus, His love will naturally flow through you. Let the transformative power of trusting and submitting to Jesus positively impact your relationships, turning submission into a source of delight.

What Did I Say | Matt 28:18-20 | Pastor Mia Shin

Jesus invites us to build authentic connections, prioritizing real relationships over superficial ones. This involves intentional effort, empathy, and reliance on the Holy Spirit. Fulfilling His call to make disciples means embodying humility, stepping into others' shoes, and embracing discomfort. Teaching the Word with love echoes the uniqueness that drew the disciples to Jesus, inspiring others to join this transformative journey. The disciples hung with Jesus because He was different, and they wanted to be a part of it. Let’s be like Him.

Wake Up | Ephesians 5 | Pastor Andy Rock

Jesus invites you to bring your pain into the light for healing and restoration. As your pain is transformed, you begin to radiate the brightest light, reflecting the goodness of God. Worship and prayer unite us, putting God first and proclaiming the love of Jesus. In these moments, we silence and cast out the forces trying to drag us down. Despite our occasional foolishness, the Spirit-filled body of Christ works together to love each other back to life. Let's choose to wake up and walk in the light.

You Are Not Your Thoughts | Ephesians 5 | Pastor Andy Rock

Once shrouded in darkness, we all share a common journey. This shared experience becomes the foundation for our compassion towards one another. We achieve this by openly acknowledging our individual darkness, bringing it into the light. With God's guidance, we become aware of our thoughts, capturing them with the support of others, and in turn, extend the same kindness. The Kingdom of God is a familial space where each person unveils their darkness, allowing Jesus and all of us to embody kindness, compassion, and forgiveness for every wound and failure.

Overcoming Anger, Part 2 | Ephesians 4 | Pastor Andy Rock

Learning to navigate anger as God intended involves expressing our feelings truthfully for healing and understanding. Silencing emotions allows hurt to intensify, stealing the joy God offers. This is especially crucial when dealing with anger from others. Holding onto anger robs us of compassion and forgiveness, yet embracing forgiveness, akin to Jesus's response, frees us from the need to control through anger. Let's choose open and honest communication, releasing the grip of anger and allowing love to guide our actions.

Anchored in Hope | Psalm 130 | Joe Ramirez

Each week we say that we believe there is hope beyond our brokenness. It’s a key pillar to our mission here at the church. What does hope look like for us as we navigate through the ups and downs of life? Do we just stay optimistic and bring good things into existence? Is it our job to manifest our own blessings? True hope can only be found in God and is anchored in his promises for us. In his mercy, we have been given a living hope through our savior Jesus and that is something that will never let us down.

Just Love | Luke 2 | Pastor Andy Rock

Jesus was born to bring a love that this world had never known. It was a love that would surpass all of our hopes and dreams. Jesus didn’t come to conquer or overthrow the oppressor. He came to love the brokenhearted in their sorrow. He is familiar with difficulty and hardship and can relate to each and every one of us. He invites us to step into the joy of His love and trust in His enduring mercies. The love of Jesus is the greatest gift you can ever receive.

Faith When You Got Nothing Left | Matthew 1 | Pastor Andy Rock

Reflecting on his earthly father, Joseph, Jesus saw a man who willingly sacrificed his money, reputation, time, and comfort—all for the fulfillment of our Heavenly Father's plan, not his own. In following this selfless example, Jesus ultimately sacrificed His life for all of us. Similarly, when you choose to relinquish self-ambition and place your trust in God, you're poised to make a profound impact. The ripples of your decisions can shape generations. Have confidence in God's loving plan for you, knowing that your choices can bring about meaningful change.

Overcoming Anger | Ephesians 4 | Pastor Andy Rock

What does it mean to be angry and do not sin? For many of us, anger has been portrayed as a negative emotion that should be avoided or worse, used as a weapon. Like any emotion, anger is the result of events or circumstances. This emotion, when rooted in love, can drive us to protect people, fix problems, or destroy evil. When used as part of an agenda, anger will tear down, wound, and cause pain. You can stand up for yourself and others in love and mercy. Focus on the issue at hand instead of the person in the situation. Ask God to bring peace into conflicts and let His kindness and compassion be at the center of conflicts. Choose to bring the love of God into the hardest places in your life so that He can bring transformation and healing.

A Heart No Longer Hardened | Ephesians 4 | Pastor Andy Rock

When we shut God out in any part of our lives, we often turn to self-medication—through habits like excessive eating, drinking, or other temporary fixes—to numb our pain. Yet, these quick remedies only offer brief relief. Before we know it, we're stuck in harmful cycles, damaging our health, relationships, and connection to God. The power to heal starts with a choice – choosing to offer our hearts back to Jesus. Remember, in our suffering, Jesus is right beside us. Reclaim your Savior, speak to yourself with gentleness, and rediscover your purpose by joining God in His work. Let go of resentments, and let kindness guide your way forward. It's through love-driven choices that true healing unfolds.

Giving Our Spirit to Jesus | Ephesians 4:7-16 | Pastor Andy Rock

Jesus generously gifts each of us to nurture our faith, deepen our understanding of Him, and grow into the image of Jesus. Together, we play a vital role in supporting one another rather than tearing each other down. Embrace the love that Jesus provides as the ultimate tool. Speak truth with love, build each other up with love, and give from a place of love. Love is patient, kind, and forgives without keeping a record of wrongs. We all face moments of being lost, but Jesus excels at rescuing souls from darkness and guiding them to heavenly grace. Our unity is a testament to Jesus' transformative power.
