What is the church, and why does it matter so much? In the final message of our Rooted series, we talk about what the church truly is, why God designed it the way He did, and how being connected to the church impacts our faith, our lives, and even our future.

The church was never meant to be a building you attend, but a people you belong to. When we’re rooted together, we grow stronger, support one another, and make an eternal impact far beyond a Sunday morning.

Whether you’re new to church, watching online, or have been part of a church family for years, this message will challenge and encourage you to take your next step and walk through the doors God is opening in front of you.

Watch, reflect, and ask the question: where is God calling me to get rooted?

Can we actually trust the Bible?

In a world where AI blurs reality, truth feels harder to identify than ever. Videos can be fake. Voices can be generated. Even people can be fabricated. So how do we know what’s real anymore?

In Part 1 of our new Rooted series, we ask an honest and foundational question: Can we trust the Bible?

If everything we believe as Christians is built on Scripture, then this question matters more than ever.

In this message, we explore:

• How the Bible came together

• Why it has remained reliable over thousands of years

• Prophecy, archaeology, and historical evidence that confirm its truth

• How God still speaks through His Word today

Watch now and discover why God’s Word is trustworthy—and why being rooted in it changes everything.

As we step into a new year, we’re sharing what God has been speaking over Heartland Church for 2026 — a year marked by a fresh wind, renewed purpose, and being ready for how God wants to move.

This looks back with gratitude, acknowledges the shaking many experienced, and casts vision for what’s ahead. It’s a reminder that we don’t manufacture what God is doing — we raise our sails and follow where His Spirit leads.

Whether you were in the room or watching later, take time to pray, reflect, and ask God what it looks like for you to step forward in 2026.

What do you do when what’s in front of you is bigger than what you have?

In Lord, I Need You, we look at two powerful miracles from Matthew 14 — Jesus feeding the 5,000 and Jesus walking on the water. Though they happen in very different moments, they reveal the same life-changing truth: recognizing our need for Jesus is not weakness, it’s the foundation of faith.

This message reminds us that:

• God often allows us to see our limits so we’ll lean on Him

• Following Jesus doesn’t mean we won’t face storms

• When we offer God what little we have, He is faithful to multiply it

• Fear is real, but what matters most is who we turn to when we are afraid

As we begin a new year, this message helps re-center our hearts on a simple but powerful prayer we all need to pray: Lord, I need You.

As we close out the year, we turn to the Psalms of Ascent (Psalms 120–134)—a collection of songs God’s people sang while climbing toward Jerusalem.

These psalms were written for the journey. They remind us how to walk with God when the road is long, the climb is steep, and the finish feels far away. In this message, we explore how the Psalms of Ascent teach us to bring our troubles to the Lord, praise Him in the middle of the journey, trust Him when the path gets tough, and keep our focus on what awaits us ahead.

If you’re tired, discouraged, or tempted to quit halfway, this message is an invitation to finish strong and keep moving upward with God.

Watch now and be encouraged as we reflect on where we’ve been—and where God is leading us next.

In Part 3 of the Jonah series, we step into the uncomfortable ending of the story—where obedience is present, but the heart is still misaligned. Jonah watches an entire city repent, yet instead of celebrating, he’s angry. Why? Because God’s compassion challenged Jonah’s priorities.

This message dives into Jonah chapter 4 and wrestles with big questions we all face:

• Can we obey God without sharing His heart?

• Do we care more about our comfort than God’s mission?

• Do we want forgiveness for ourselves but justice for others?

Through Jonah’s anger, God’s questions, and a powerful reminder of God’s mercy, we’re challenged to align our hearts with God’s heart—not just our actions.

Don’t just obey. Let God transform your heart.

In Part 2 of our Jonah series, we step back into one of the most surprising turnarounds in the Bible. Jonah finally obeys, speaks a simple message, and God does what only God can do. An entire city repents. Hearts shift. Lives change. And we discover that repentance still reroutes ruin today.

In this message, we look at why God cares about “those people,” why our spiritual condition affects the people around us, and how small course corrections can keep our lives aligned with God’s voice. If Jonah can be used in all his flaws and frustration, God can absolutely use us too.

Watch and be challenged to speak when God says speak, to love the hard-to-love, and to turn your heart back toward Him.

A runaway prophet, a raging storm, a swallowed man, and a God who never stops pursuing His people.

We’re launching a new sermon series through the book of Jonah – not just a story about a fish, but a mirror that reveals our own hearts. Jonah ran. We run. Yet God still calls, redirects, and restores.

In this message, we walk through Jonah chapter 1 and discover that

• God directs – we choose whether to obey
• Running from God always leads downward
• Our disobedience affects more than ourselves
• God is a God of second chances

Whether you’ve known this story your whole life or only from Sunday School flannelgraphs, you’ll see Jonah with fresh eyes. This isn’t just his story. It’s ours.

Watch now and take the first step into Jonah.
