John Swadley | 1 Timothy 1:13-16

We know Jesus died on the cross, but do we really understand why? In this message from 1 Timothy 1:13–16, we unpack the heart of the Gospel and three powerful pictures of what Jesus accomplished for us: He cleanses the stain of our sin, wipes away the record of our wrongs, and welcomes us into the family of God. No matter your past or how great your sin, God’s grace is greater. Jesus came to save sinners, and because of the cross, forgiveness, a fresh start, and eternal life are available to everyone who believes and receives Him.

John Swadley | Mark 8:31-38

What does it really mean to follow Jesus? In this message from Mark 8:31-38, Pastor John challenges us to move beyond simply admiring Jesus and become true followers of Him. He explores Jesus' call to deny ourselves, take up our cross, and obey His commands, showing why baptism isn't just a tradition but the first public step of obedience after placing our faith in Christ. If you've ever wondered why baptism matters or what it means to be "all in" for Jesus, this message offers a clear and compelling invitation to take your next step of faith.

John Swadley | Acts 1:8-9

Jesus' final words to His disciples weren't just a farewell. They were a mission. In this message from Acts 1:8-9, we're reminded that God's heart has always been for people who are far from Him, from our own neighborhoods to the ends of the earth. Discover why missions matter, how sharing the gospel makes us more like Jesus, how the Holy Spirit empowers His people for His mission, and why a church focused on reaching others is a church filled with new life. Whether you're called to go across the street or across the world, this message will challenge you to see people through God's eyes and live with a vision that's bigger than yourself.
