Everlasting Father
Dr. Jessica Fernandez
December 14, 2025

For many, the word “father” brings up wounds of absence, pain, abandonment, or unmet expectations. But Isaiah 9:6 calls Jesus our Everlasting Father, the Father-hearted Savior who came to heal every place where earthly fathers fell short. Join us as we discover how the child in the manger displays the heart of a Father who is constant, compassionate, and eternally present.

DISSCUSION QUESTIONS

1. Take a moment to reflect on your own experience with the word father. How has your understanding — whether positive, painful, complicated, or absent — shaped the way you view God? In what ways has it helped you, and in what ways has it created barriers or misconceptions? Share how this message challenged, corrected, or deepened your perspective of God as your Everlasting Father.

2. Out of all the ways Jesus revealed the Father’s heart — His compassion, His mercy, His provision, His sacrifice, His desire to adopt you, or His protection — which one impacted you the most and why? Can you think of a time in your life when you personally experienced one of these aspects of God’s heart? What did it teach you about who He truly is?

3. In John 6, Jesus fed thousands with five loaves and two fish, showing that the Father provides abundantly and not sparingly. Where do you struggle to trust God’s provision in your own life? What “small loaves and fish” — your time, resources, abilities, or obedience — are you holding onto tightly? What might it look like this week to place those things into His hands and trust Him to multiply them?

4. The NICU illustration showed how fragility, instability, and weakness are met with a parent’s steady presence. In your life right now, where do you feel most fragile, overwhelmed, or under pressure? What would it look like to stop “trying harder” and instead “draw near” to the Everlasting Father? Where do you sense God inviting you to rest, to breathe, and to let Him hold what you cannot regulate on your own?

5. Scripture teaches that God didn’t just forgive you — He adopted you (Galatians 4, Ephesians 1). What does it mean to you personally that the Everlasting Father claims you as His child with full belonging and full access? How does this identity shift the way you approach prayer, insecurity, or daily life? And what step can you take this week to grow in intimacy with your Father?

The Might God
Senior Pastor Keith Stewart
December 7, 2025

When life feels overwhelming and the world seems increasingly unstable, you need more than a sentimental Christmas story—you need a God who is strong enough to fight for you. In this message, Mighty God, you’ll discover that the Child in the cradle is the God of the universe in human flesh—able to break the chains you can’t break, face the battles you can’t win, and stand with you against every fear. If you’ve ever wondered whether Jesus is really enough, this message will help you see His power, His nearness, and His unmatched ability to carry you through.

DISCUSSION QUESTIONS

1. Names that define us.

Which “old name badge” do you most tend to wear (unwanted, unworthy, abandoned, etc.)?
Which name God gives you is hardest to believe—and why?

2. Jesus as Warrior.

If “Mighty God” means God is a valiant warrior who fights on our behalf, what battle in your life right now feels bigger than your own strength? What might it look like, practically and specifically, to let Jesus fight that battle instead of you trying to manage it alone?

3. The Great I AM in the storm.

In the storm on the Sea of Galilee, Jesus walks on the water and says, “I AM. Don’t be afraid.”
Where does fear most show up in your life right now (finances, family, health, calling, the future)? How does it change things to imagine the Great I AM standing in that place saying, “Don’t be afraid”?

4. If Jesus isn’t God, He isn’t safe.


How have you seen people (or maybe even yourself at times) try to keep Jesus in the “good teacher” category without surrendering to Him as Mighty God? What part of your life most resists treating Him as God rather than adviser?

5. Christmas as a crisis point of decision.

If someone close to you asked, “Who is Jesus to you—really?” How would you honestly answer today? What next step (trust, obedience, repentance, public declaration, baptism, etc.) would move your answer closer to “He is my Mighty God”?

6. Letting the Mighty God rename your story.

Where do you see yourself slipping into self-focus, self-pity, or old identities this season?
What is one specific “new name” or truth about Jesus as Mighty God that you want to hold onto this week—and how can you build a simple reminder into your day (a verse on your phone, a note on your mirror, a daily prayer, etc.)?

Wonderful Counselor
Senior Pastor Keith Stewart
November 30, 2025

In a world that feels darker, louder, and more confusing by the day, we are all desperate for a hope that actually holds. This message invites you to rediscover the wonder of Jesus Who steps into our chaos not just as a comforting presence, but as One Who knows exactly how to lead us through what we cannot fix on our own. Come and hear how real hope is not found in a change of circumstances, but in a Person Who is wonderfully at work in every detail of your life.

Discussion Questions

1. Advent begins in darkness, not light. Where do you see “darkness” most clearly right now—in our world, in our community, or in your own story? How does Isaiah’s promise of a child born into that darkness speak hope into those specific places?

2. “The doorway to hope is hopelessness.” Can you think of a time when you ran out of “horizontal” hope (people, places, circumstances) and it forced you to look up to God? What did you learn about yourself and about Jesus in that season?

3. “It’s US.” We often want to believe our biggest problems are outside of us. Where do you most feel the pull to blame situations, locations, or other people? What might it look like, in that specific area, to pray, “God, I accept it. I’m the problem. It’s me,” and invite Christ into that?

4. Losing our sense of wonder. In what ways do you see yourself “bored” with Jesus, church, or your faith—going through the motions more than living with wonder? What “substitutes” (comforts, amusements, habits) tend to dull your sense of awe in Christ?


5. Jesus as Wonderful Counselor – approachable, reliable, available. Which of those three qualities of Jesus do you need most right now—and why? What is one concrete step you can take this week to actually act on that (for example, bringing a specific struggle to Him in prayer, obeying a nudge He’s already given, or leaning on the Spirit’s presence in a scary situation)?

6. Living the “WOW” of God. If someone looked at your life right now, what would they conclude is your true source of hope and guidance? What is one area where you want Jesus, the Wonderful Counselor, to “re-write the story” so that when you look back, you’ll say, “WOW—only God could have done that”?
