Using the story of Elijah in 1 Kings 18–19, this message explores what happens when we drift from God, allow fear to lead us into isolation, or lose sight of the calling He has placed on our lives. Elijah experienced an incredible victory on Mount Carmel, yet shortly afterward he was afraid, exhausted, and hiding in a cave. There, God gently asked him, “What are you doing here?” The message reminds us that even after failure, fear, or seasons of running, God continues to pursue us. He meets us in the wilderness, restores us, and calls us back to trust.

Ps. Jesse tackles the difficult topic of abortion and the value of life in this weeks sermon of "Did God Really Say." Using real life statistics covered in buckets of grace and love, Ps. Jesse gives the church the information needed to stand firm on the belief that all life is valuable.

This message explores what Scripture says about marriage and same-sex sexual behavior, beginning with God’s design for marriage in Genesis. The sermon argues that from creation, God established marriage as a covenant relationship between a man and a woman, and then traces this understanding through the Old and New Testaments, including Jesus’ teaching in Mark 10 and Paul’s writings.

This message introduces the Did God Really Say? series by asking a foundational question: Who gets to decide what is true, right, and wrong? Beginning with the serpent’s question in Genesis 3, the sermon reveals a pattern that has continued throughout history: humanity questions God’s Word, rejects His authority, and ultimately places itself on the throne.

This message, “One More Night With the Frogs,” uses the story of Pharaoh and the plague of frogs to challenge us to stop delaying when God is calling us to respond. Pharaoh knew he needed God to intervene, yet when given the opportunity to have the frogs removed, he chose to wait until tomorrow. The sermon reveals how often we do the same thing—recognizing something needs to change but choosing “one more night” because of pride, fear, or discouragement.

This message, “Access Granted,” reminds us of the incredible access to God made possible through Jesus Christ. Under the Old Covenant, countless rules, rituals, and restrictions reminded people that access to a holy God was limited. But when Jesus died on the cross and the temple veil was torn, heaven declared: access granted. Because of Christ’s finished work, we can now boldly approach the throne of grace—not because we have earned it, but because of His mercy and sacrifice.
