Love, Actually – Week 1: The Signs You Keep Ignoring
Text: 1 Kings 21

Most relational breakdowns don’t happen all at once—they happen slowly, through ignored patterns and overlooked signs.

In Week 1 of our new series Love, Actually: The Love That Restores, Pastor Kevin opens with a sobering and practical message about relational wisdom. Drawing from the story of Ahab and Jezebel in 1 Kings 21, this message explores how unhealthy dynamics form through passivity, control, and unresolved patterns—and how God often shows us warning signs long before damage is done.

This message speaks to dating relationships, marriages, friendships, and church relationships, helping listeners learn how to identify patterns, interrupt dysfunction, and move toward healthier love shaped by truth and tenderness.

Ultimately, this message reminds us that Jesus doesn’t love with control or withdrawal—He loves with grace, courage, and restoration. And He invites us to learn a new way of loving.

Vision Sunday 2026: Ransomed & Redeemed
Romans 12:1–3

Vision doesn’t begin with strategy—it begins with mercy.

On Vision Sunday, Pastor Kevin closes the Better Than New series and invites the church into God’s shaping work for the year ahead. Drawing from Romans 12, this message reframes vision not as self-improvement or pressure, but as transformation rooted in the mercies of God.

Rather than asking how we can optimize our lives, Scripture invites us to be renewed—formed from the inside out. Vision flows from redemption, not ambition. Renewal leads to discernment. And discernment draws us into shared life and shared mission.

In this message, you’ll hear the heart behind Broad River Church’s 2026 theme Ransomed & Redeemed, and a clear picture of what it looks like to be a redeemed people, a redeeming church, and a restoring presence in the places God has planted us.

Vision isn’t about predicting the future—it’s about choosing faithfulness. And it always starts with mercy.

Better Than New – Week 3: “Rooted, Equipped, Confident”
2 Timothy 3:14–17; Philippians 1:6

By late January, many people feel the same tension: I started strong… but can I keep going?

In Week 3 of Better Than New, Pastor Kevin explores what it means to continue—not perfectly, but faithfully. This message confronts the lie that spiritual growth requires constant restarting and invites us into a steadier, deeper formation.

Through Paul’s encouragement to Timothy, we see how God forms His people over time—rooting us in truth, equipping us through Scripture, and grounding our confidence not in willpower, but in God’s faithfulness.

This message will help you move past shame, resist burnout, and trust that God finishes what He starts. New doesn’t fix us—but God redeems us, forms us, and sends us again.
