Pastor Evan Wickham kicks off 2025 with a teaching on what it means to dwell in the house of God, as well as what is required of us to stay there. Blessed are those whose hearts are set on pilgrimage.

Each year during Advent, the global church thinks deeply about what it means to live in the hope, peace, joy, and love of God. So this year, Park Hill Church is hosting these conversations with key leaders within our community. For week four "Love", Evan Wickham sits down with David Wade, lead pastor of All Saints Church, to discuss what it looks like to receive God's love and then freely give it away. In a culture that paradoxically pursues both loneliness and autonomy, how can we follow Jesus'...
For our series "Advent." What is love, according to God? In this teaching, Evan Wickham leads us deep into the songbook of Jesus—the Psalms. It is here that we learn how to sing the song of the redeemed family of a God who is, at his very core, pure loyal love.
Each year during Advent, the global church thinks deeply about what it means to live in the hope, peace, joy, and love of God. So this year, Park Hill Church is hosting three conversations with key leaders from our broader community. For week three "Joy", Evan Wickham sits down with Dan and Alexis Braga, pastors of Neighbors Church, to discuss how to live in such a way that we receive the maximum amount of joy that God wants for our lives (and he wants a lot!).
From our series "Advent." On Advent Joy Sunday, we look to the Proverbs for wisdom on how to maximize our joy. In this ancient proverb, we find a lady who has been calling out to us from before the beginning of time. She knows the way to true happiness. She wants us to follow her. She is the personification of wisdom itself. And at Christmastime, we remind ourselves that the metaphor became a reality when the wisdom of God entered our world through Mary's womb. The question is, will we choose to...
Participate in the 2024 CHRISTMAS GIFT. From our series "Advent." There's a special word in the Bible for the peace that every soul longs for. It's the word "shalom." Shalom/peace is so much more than simply the absence of drama and conflict. When shalom comes, there is a thick presence and fulfillment of goodness, and healed relationships, and restored lives. Don't you long for that? In our day of division and disunity, shalom seems almost too good to be true. But according to Psalm 91, God's s...
Participate in the 2024 CHRISTMAS GIFT. Each year during Advent, the global church thinks deeply about what it means to live in the hope, peace, joy, and love of God. So this year, Park Hill Church is hosting these conversations with key leaders within our community. For week one "Hope", Evan Wickham sits down with Matt Pursley to discuss what it looks like to live in the true hope God promises to all his children. In our troubled, uncertain times, how can we live with real hope? Matt Pursley pr...
For our series "Advent." Pastor Matt Pursley shows us what hope is, why hope more than wishful thinking, and how authentic hope is always hereditary. As God's family chooses to trust in God's promises together in committed community, the result is a non-despairing, true-and-living hope that lasts for generations.
On Christ the King Sunday, Park Hill is honored to host guest speaker Dr. David Bennett. David is the author of the acclaimed book “A War of Loves: The Unexpected Story of a Gay Activist Discovering Jesus.” In this teaching, David shares his powerful story with our community.
As human beings, we find ourselves caught in the middle of a massive war. This war is not between political parties or ideological tribes, but between the very real dominion of satan and the unstoppable kingdom of the living God revealed in Jesus. As Jesus followers, we believe we belong to the side that will inevitably win the war, even as we continue to actively fight against satan’s power in our world. But how do we fight? What does spiritual warfare look like practically? Dr. Breshears unpac...
From our series "Acts." As the book of Acts concludes, we see the Apostle Paul under house arrest, yet described as 'unhindered' by the power of God. What if the circumstances that feel like weaknesses are actually where we encounter the presence and strength of God?
From our series “Acts.” As the book of Acts draws to a close, the Apostle Paul goes through a series of unfortunate events which turn out for the salvation and healing of many. What if our places of greatest wounding could become the sources of greatest healing for others, if only we would fully trust those wounds to Jesus?
From our series “Acts.” In the final chapters of this book, we learn incredibly important lessons about how to deal with our pain as followers of Jesus. Paul the Apostle is suffering greatly. He is unjustly incarcerated for years, beaten, abused, and publicly shamed. But Paul chooses joy in the middle of pain as he witnesses to the goodness of Jesus at every turn.
From our series “Acts.” We are taking a deep dive into chapters 23 through 25 to see how Paul responds when faced with death threats, plots, and an unfair trial. Paul is now in Caesarea and is trialed before Governor Felix. Despite the lack of evidence presented by his accusers and the complete failure of the justice system, we see Paul maintaining a faithful witness to Jesus. The encouragement for us today is to follow Paul’s example when faced with false accusations and remember that we can on...
From our series “Acts.” As the book of Acts nears its end, Paul finds himself in difficult times. Though repeatedly beaten and on trial for his life, Paul somehow remains courageous, humble, and clear thinking. In our modern moment of uncertainty, we crave Paul’s level of confidence. The good news is, this unshakable confidence is available to all who trust in the God who loves being fully present to his children, especially when they suffer.
What if something as simple as swiping our credit card can become a moment of deep intimacy with God? Guest speaker and pastor Steven Cooper presents a compelling case for how we can spend money in ways that make God happy. This teaching kicks off a four-week Community conversation around practicing generosity in the way of Jesus.
From our series "Acts." In chapter 20, Paul says goodbye to the church that he built for 3 years. Missy Bell shares insights from this passage on how we can learn what it means to be a disciple maker, one who counts the cost to live in the Way of Jesus.
From our series “Acts.” In chapter 19, the kingdom of God comes in direct conflict with the kingdom of darkness. This is a power encounter we should pay attention to. As we watch this story unfold, we see how God is the Master of repurposing evil for good. He then graciously invites his children to repent of our sin and renounce our agreements with darkness. As we do so, we get to walk in the power and light of heaven on earth together as family.
From our series “Acts.” At the beginning of chapter 19, Luke (the author of Acts) wants us to remember the identity of the main character of the story. It’s not Paul or Peter or any of the other Apostles. The main character is the Person of the Holy Spirit. And that same Person is with us today, ready to fill us with the same power that raised Jesus from the dead and animated the first Christians to turn the world upside down with the love of God. The only question we need to honestly answer is,...
From our series “Acts.” As followers of Jesus, we believe God is a speaking God. In Acts 18, we see God speaking powerfully to the Apostle Paul in his time of trouble. But does God still speak to us today in that same way? Why can it be so difficult to hear God speak? When we think we’re hearing God speak, what if we’re wrong? What about seasons of dry spirituality, when we’re longing to hear God’s voice, but only seem to hear silence? All of us can relate to these questions. Last Sunday, we con...
From our series “Acts.” In chapter 18, we discover a beautiful picture of married couples and singles partnering together for the kingdom in the most beautiful ways. Married couple Priscilla and Aquila not only work alongside the unmarried Paul and Apollos, but they welcome them into their home and become a base of support for their powerful ministries. In our current epidemic of loneliness and isolation, Acts 18 lights the way for the church to become the community of longing and intimacy the w...
Author and broadcaster Justin Brierley visits Park Hill for the last stop of his ‘Surprising Rebirth of Belief in God’ West Coast tour. Justin has hosted interviews and dialogues with many of the world’s leading intellectuals, both skeptical and believing alike. In this talk, Justin outlines how the conversations around skepticism, belief, and faith have developed over the past two decades. After the talk, Evan Wickham interviews Justin with a mix of audience questions.
From our series “Acts.” Justin Brierley visits Park Hill Church with a timely message. He believes we could be on the cusp of another Jesus Revolution in our time. How should we prepare? According to Justin, we would be wise to follow the example of Paul in Acts 17. By the way we live and in the words we say, we should make the watching world wish that Christianity were true.
Pastor and professor Guy Gray visits Park Hill with a timely message about the intersection of doubt, faith, and evidence in our relationship with God.
