Pastor Jesse celebrates thankfulness and 250 years of One Nation Under God.

This message explores the parable of the lost coin and reveals a powerful truth about how God sees every person. While the lost sheep highlights God's pursuit and the prodigal son reveals His welcoming heart, the lost coin reminds us of our immeasurable value. Just as the coin remained valuable even while covered in dust and hidden from sight, every person continues to bear the image of God regardless of their failures, sin, or brokenness. Our worth is not determined by what we've done, but by whose image we bear.

This message explores the Parable of the Prodigal Son through a different lens, revealing that the story is ultimately about the heart of the Father. While the younger son’s rebellion is significant, the focus is on God’s extravagant grace, compassion, and eagerness to welcome home those who have wandered away. Rather than waiting with condemnation, the Father runs toward His returning son, covers his shame, restores his identity, and celebrates his homecoming. The sermon reminds us that no failure, regret, or season of rebellion can outweigh the mercy and love of God.

This message explores Jesus’ parable of the lost sheep and reminds us of God’s relentless love for those who are far from Him. Using the imagery of sheep that wander easily and lack direction, the sermon highlights humanity’s tendency to drift away from God, often not through rebellion, but through distraction, neglect, and gradual wandering. Just as a shepherd leaves the ninety-nine to search for the one lost sheep, God actively pursues those who are lost and rejoices when they are found and brought home.

In a world where we are constantly connected to everyone and everything, it’s easy to become overwhelmed by endless bad news, global crises, and the expectation that we carry the emotional weight of the entire world. This message explores the Parable of the Good Samaritan and challenges the modern idea that Christians are called to be emotionally responsible for every tragedy they encounter online. Instead, Scripture points us toward a more sustainable and biblical calling: loving the neighbors God has actually placed in our lives.

This message explores the Tenth Commandment—“You shall not covet”—and reveals that God is concerned not only with our actions, but also with the desires and intentions of our hearts. The sermon explains that coveting is more than simply wanting something; it is allowing desire to grow into a plan to take what belongs to someone else. Through the Hebrew word chamad, we see how unchecked longing can damage relationships, destroy community, and lead us away from God’s design.
