Why did Jesus tell a story about seeds, soil, and farming? Because He wasn’t just talking about agriculture—He was talking about you. In this first message of our Once Upon a Time series, we dive into Mark 4:1–9, where Jesus tells a parable that seems simple… until it starts exposing the condition of our hearts. Some soil is hard. Some is shallow. Some is choked by thorns. And some is ready to grow something life-changing. What’s in your soil? Let Jesus' words show you what’s beneath the surface—and how to grow something lasting. 📖 Scripture: Mark 4:1–9 2 Samuel 12

When life falls apart, how do we respond? In this message, we look at powerful examples of unshakable faith—from Paul and Silas singing in prison (Acts 16), to Corrie ten Boom worshiping in the darkest of places, to Horatio Spafford writing "It Is Well with My Soul" after profound tragedy.

God doesn’t always calm the storm, but He is always with us in it. Discover how worship can become your lifeline, even when everything else feels uncertain.

📖 Scriptures:

• Acts 16:16–30

• 1 Thessalonians 5:16–18

Whether you're in a season of peace or pain, this message will encourage you to choose praise.

What happens when radically different people follow the same Jesus? In this message, we look at how faith thrives not in perfect unity, but in persistent encouragement — even in the middle of disagreement, tension, and personality clashes. From impulsive Peter to skeptical Thomas, the early disciples show us how love and good deeds can grow in the mess.

Rooted in Hebrews 10, this sermon challenges us to spur one another on and keep moving forward in faith — together.

👉 Don’t give up. Don’t go alone. Let’s push forward, together.

When the waves rise and the winds howl, where is your faith anchored? In Mark 4:35–41, we see Jesus asleep during a furious storm—unshaken, unmoved, and completely in control. With just a word, He brings peace to chaos, revealing His authority over creation and over the storms in our own lives. In this message, Rooted in Peace, we explore: Why Jesus led His disciples to “the other side” What His calm in the storm teaches us about trust and faith How His authority brings hope in every trial—whether it’s nature, sickness, spiritual battles, or even death itself If you’ve ever felt like God was “asleep” in your storm, this passage invites you to see that He’s always present, always powerful, and always for you. 📖 “Quiet! Be still!” Then the wind died down and it was completely calm. – Mark 4:39 🙏 If today you’ve decided to follow Jesus, we want to celebrate with you! Reach out to us—we’d love to help you start your new journey of faith.

Elijah had just called down fire from heaven. Days later, he was hiding in a cave, praying to die.

“This is it,” he thought. “I’m done.”

But God wasn’t done. And He’s not done with you, either.

In this sermon from 1 Kings 19, discover how God meets us in our lowest moments—not with shame, but with silence, with questions, with food, with presence. Sometimes the most powerful move of God comes not in fire, but in a whisper.

If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed, isolated, or ready to give up—this message is for you.

What voice are you listening to? In this message, we explore how true peace and worth come from God, not from the harsh inner voice we often believe. Through Luke 10 and 15, we’ll discover the freedom of hearing God’s voice above our own. #RootedInPeace #Luke15 #FaithOverFear

When life doesn’t go the way we planned, we often wrestle with our own will versus God’s. In Luke 22–23, we see Jesus surrender fully to the Father’s plan, even when it meant pain, betrayal, and the cross. This surrender brought peace—not just for Him, but for all of us.

In this message, Pastor Matt Bleckley walks us through the "spaces" we face in life:

• The Space Inside You – Where we wrestle with God’s will (Luke 22:16, 39–44)

• The Space Between You and Another – Where relationships are tested (Luke 22:46)

• The Space Inside of Another – Where others’ struggles affect us (Luke 22:31–34, 61)

• The Space Between Others – Where conflict and division challenge us (Luke 23:1–4)

When we let go of control and trust His will, we discover a peace that nothing in this world can take away.

Scripture References (NIV): Luke 22:14–16, 28–34, 39–47, 53–23:4

When life gets chaotic, alignment matters. In the wilderness, God's people were instructed to keep the Tent of Meeting—the place of His presence—at the center of their camp and their journey (Numbers 2:17). It wasn’t just a setup—it was a strategy for survival and strength.

This Blast Sunday, we're talking about aligning our lives so Jesus remains at the center. Because when He’s not, we risk falling behind—vulnerable, weary, and exposed like those the Amalekites attacked (Deut. 25:17–18).

Whether you're a leader, a learner, or just figuring it all out, the call is the same: Align your line-up. Stay rooted in peace. Keep Jesus at the center.
