  • S4 Ep101: To Whom are You Paying Tribute?
    2025/10/19
    What if the most powerful weapon against oppression isn't a sword, but a reminder of God's faithfulness? In Pastor Nick's compelling exploration of Judges 3, we meet Ehud, a left-handed warrior who encounters a pivotal moment at the stones of Gilgal. These weren't just any stones – they were monuments of God's miraculous deliverance of Israel through the Jordan River. Seeing these stones rekindled Ehud's courage to free Israel from 18 years of oppressive tribute to King Eglon of Moab. Pastor Nick masterfully connects this ancient story to our modern struggles, reminding us that while we often pay "tribute" to things that enslave us – whether addictions, false ideologies, or worldly systems – our true battle isn't against people but spiritual forces. Just as the stones of Gilgal reminded Israel of God's faithfulness, communion serves as our monument of Christ's ultimate victory. The urgent call rings clear: Will we continue paying tribute to what destroys us, or will we, like Ehud, find courage in remembering God's faithfulness and stand firm in Christ's freedom?

  • S4 Ep100: You're Robbing God!
    2025/10/12
    What if the choices we make in secret could shape the destiny of an entire community? In this powerful message, Pastor Nick delves into the story of Achan from Joshua 7, revealing how one man's hidden sin brought devastating consequences to all of Israel. Through vivid storytelling and urgent pastoral care, he exposes how our "private" sins—from mishandled finances to hidden addictions—ripple outward to affect our families, our church, and even our nation's spiritual health. With compelling clarity, Pastor Nick challenges us to recognize that what we think we're burying under our tent is actually blocking God's blessings and hindering His work. The message culminates in a sobering reminder that our spiritual compromises don't just impact us—they can literally determine whether others encounter Christ or remain eternally separated from Him. Through biblical truth and compassionate conviction, Pastor Nick calls us to examine our hearts, confess our sins, and live as conduits of God's grace rather than hoarders of His blessings.

  • S4 Ep99: Getting to Know God
    2025/10/05
    In an exploration of God's faithfulness and human frailty, Pastor Nick delves into Ezekiel 20 to reveal how Israel's wilderness journey mirrors our own spiritual walk. Drawing parallels between ancient Israel's struggles and modern Christian life, he illuminates God's patient work in shaping His people's identity and purpose. Through vivid examples of Israel's repeated failures and God's unwavering love, Pastor Nick demonstrates how Jesus perfectly fulfilled Israel's calling and extended God's covenant to all believers. He challenges us to embrace our role as "grafted branches" in God's family tree, while acknowledging our own wilderness seasons as opportunities for spiritual growth. With pastoral wisdom, he encourages believers to persist through spiritual dry spells, remain faithful to God's promises, and actively participate in His kingdom work. The message culminates in a stirring call to action, urging Christians to move beyond mere salvation to pursue holiness and fulfill their divine calling as witnesses of God's transformative power.
