Move; The Gospel in Motion: Week 6 (Pastor Suzy Silk)

Move - The Gospel in Motion: Week 5 (Pastor Kevin Mullins)

Text: Acts 4:32–5:11; Exodus 36; Leviticus 25; Isaiah 55; John 17 Title: “What Can Stop a Move of God?” When revival moves, it’s not just the world that notices—hell notices too. In this message, we explore how Spirit-filled community can be corrupted from within through pride, hypocrisy, and false appearances. We look at the radical generosity of the early church and contrast it with the deception of Ananias and Sapphira. Along the way, we trace God’s vision for generosity from Eden to the cros...

The Big Reach: Serve Day 2025 (Pastor Kevin Mullins)

This week, Pastor Kevin brings a powerful message from Luke 15:1–10 that places Serve Day in the larger rhythm of our year of Gospel Hospitality.

Through stories, scripture, and challenge, we’re invited to serve with strategy, love with intention, and remember...

Move - The Gospel in Motion: Week 4 (Pastor Kevin Mullins)

Texts: Acts 4:18–31; Psalm 2; Isaiah 55; This week, we find Peter and John under pressure—commanded by powerful authorities to stop speaking the name of Jesus.

As the early church prays, the room shakes, and the Spirit fills them again. If you’ve ever face...

Move - The Gospel in Motion: Week 3 (Pastor Kevin Mullins)

Texts: Acts 3:1–10, Acts 4:13, Isaiah 36:6 In Week 3 of our MOVE series, Pastor Kevin preaches from Acts 3:1–10, where Peter and John encounter a man stuck at the temple gate—paralyzed, overlooked, and surviving but not truly living. This message reminds us that the Gospel doesn’t begin with a sermon or a platform. It begins with a look. A reach. A movement toward brokenness. God still moves through ordinary people who choose Spirit-led obedience—who refuse to walk past pain and instead bring th...

Move - The Gospel in Motion: Week 2 (Pastor Kevin Mullins)

Texts: Acts 2:14–41; Joel 2:28–32; Psalm 16; Romans 10:13 This week, we follow Peter—the same man who once denied Jesus—now standing with boldness and clarity, proclaiming the Gospel to thousands.

We see how God gives us words that cut through confusion, call people to repentance, and carry the hope of salvation. If you've ever felt unq...

Worship As Rebellion (Pastor Kevin Mullins)

What if worship isn’t just praise—it’s protest?

Steward Or Owners? (Pastor Johnson Samuel)

Whose Money Is It, Anyway? (Pastor Kevin Mullins)

This week, Pastor Kevin unpacks one of the most uncomfortable but necessary questions: What would happen if Jesus sat down with you for a budget meeting? Spoiler: He’s not after your wallet—He’s after your heart. We dig into Luke 16 and discover how money isn’t just a financial issue—it’s a trust issue. This message is real, honest, a little funny (hello, budget meetings with Jacinta 😬), and packed with perspective-shifting truth. Whether you’re living paycheck to paycheck or feel pretty solid ...

Two Trees, Two Trusts: Where Are Your Roots? (Pastor Kevin Mullins)

When life shakes us, where do our roots dig in? In this message, Pastor Kevin invites us to explore Jeremiah 17:5–8 and the story of the twelve spies from Numbers 13–14.

Make Room For Newness (Deborah Taylor)

In Make Room For Newness , Pastor Deborah delivers a timely and tender message on how clinging to what was—past successes, old pain, familiar patterns—can keep us from embracing what God is doing now.
