How do we find true peace when we find ourselves in a season or place we didn't plan for?

In this sermon, Pastor Jeremy dives into Jeremiah 29:4-9, exploring God's unexpected instructions to the Israelites exiled in Babylon. Instead of telling them to escape or give up, God calls them to build, plant, grow, and actively seek the peace and prosperity of the city around them.

If you are feeling disconnected, stuck, or overwhelmed by the culture around you, discover how God invites us onto a "Path to Peace" by trusting His plan right where we are.

A common misconception is that the Old Testament is just about history, and the New Testament is about Jesus. But Jesus Himself said that the entire Bible is actually about Him! From the burning bush and Noah's Ark to the prophets, priests, and kings—every single book is an arrow pointing to Christ. Join us as we look at the beautiful, intricate ways the Bible connects itself, and learn how to recognize Jesus showing up in the unexpected places of your own life today. Join Circle of Peace as Pastor Jeremy Ashworth delivers the message.

Do you ever feel like you have to be "good enough" for God to love you? Many of us live our lives under the "Achievement Model"—the subconscious belief that if we act right, we earn our standing with God. But what if the Gospel is actually the opposite? In this message, we break down the vital relationship between our Status (who we are in Christ) and our Conduct (how we live). The truth is, we aren't Christians because of what we do; we do what we do because of who we already are in Christ. It's not a model of achievement; it's a model of alignment. When we fully accept our identity as a new creation, our daily behavior stops being a desperate attempt to earn grace and starts being a natural outflow of our relationship with Jesus.

When you just feel stuck and are in need of a breakthrough, remember this: all we can do is choose to have faith and be faithful to the processes and accept the breakthrough God gives us. Breakthroughs come in all different shapes and sizes, don't miss the blessings when they come in ways you don't expect them.

Are you feeling tired, empty, or like your hard work has nothing to show for it? In this message, we dive into John 21 to see how Jesus meets his disciples at their lowest point. Even after the first Easter, the disciples struggled with what came next—returning to their old lives only to find empty nets. Discover why "emptiness" can actually be a spiritual gift that creates room for a miracle. If you are looking for a fresh start or wondering how the resurrection of Jesus impacts your daily life, this sermon is for you.

Why the same crowd that shouted "Hosanna" on Sunday demanded "Crucify him" by Friday once they realized Jesus had a different agenda. If it doesn't challenge you, it doesn't change you". We invite you to watch and reflect on how you can join Jesus in the serving while trusting him for the saving.
