  How Jesus Loves Us and Moves Us Back to Himself

  Aug 17, 202641 min

  Summary: Ever felt like you've failed so badly that you couldn't face God again? In this message from John 21, Devin Fox walks through Peter's restoration story after denying Jesus three times. Discover how Jesus lovingly draws us back after our failures through four steps: pointing us to remember where we first met Him, inviting us to move in faith, welcoming us into fellowship, and offering a fresh opportunity to follow. Just as Jesus transformed Peter from a denier into a bold preacher who led 3,000 to salvation, He stands ready to restore you, no matter how far you've drifted. Question: If there is distance between you and Jesus this morning, what is keeping you from throwing yourself back into the water like Peter did, and what would it look like this week to take that first step of running toward Him instead of hiding in shame?

  Fruit of the Root: Self-Control

  Aug 10, 202648 min

  Summary: Wrapping up our study of the fruit of the Spirit, this message turns to self-control through Paul's words in 1 Corinthians 9. Using the imagery of the ancient Isthmian Games, where winners received nothing more than a wreath of wilting celery, Paul challenges believers to run the Christian race with purpose. Self-control isn't gritting your teeth or denying every desire, it's the Spirit-empowered ability to say no to fleeting temptations and yes to greater joy in Christ. Learn why we must kill sin daily, train with intention, and rest in the finished work of Jesus who ran the perfect race for us. Question: Where in your life have you been shadowboxing sin, going through the motions of holiness without ever landing a real blow, and what would it look like this week to stop negotiating with your flesh and let the Spirit produce genuine self-control in that specific area?

  Fruit of the Root: Faithfulness

  Aug 3, 202654 min

  Summary: Faithfulness isn't a white-knuckled grip on God or a checklist to prove you're a good Christian. It's fruit that grows when the Holy Spirit lives in you, rooted in God's unchanging faithfulness to us. Walking through Hebrews 10 and 11, this message shows that God keeps His promises because He cannot deny Himself, our response is to rest and hold fast, and real faithfulness shows up in community. Like a title deed proving ownership, faith rests on Christ who holds everything together. Join us as we explore what it means to live a long obedience in the same direction. Question: Where in your life are you treating faithfulness like an exhausting grip on God rather than resting in His grip on you, and how might that change the way you show up for God and His people this week?

  Fruit of the Root: Gentleness

  Jul 27, 202646 min

  Summary: What does true gentleness look like? This message unpacks gentleness as laying down your power for the good of another, modeled perfectly by Jesus who had every right to destroy His enemies but chose the cross instead. Drawing from 1 Peter 3, we discover how wives embody gentleness through submission, silence, and modesty to help their husbands grow, while husbands honor their wives with understanding and care. Every believer, whether single or married, is called to bring this same Christlike posture into the church and into sharing their faith, winning souls rather than winning arguments. Question: Think about a recent conflict or conversation where you had the power to win, correct, or push back. If gentleness is laying down your power for the good of another, how might your response have looked different if you had followed the example of Jesus, who stayed silent before His accusers and laid down His life for His enemies?

  The Courtroom of Grace

  Jul 20, 202644 min

  Summary: Step into the courtroom of grace as Jeremy walks us through Colossians 2:13-15, revealing who we were and who we are in Christ. Once dead in sin, enslaved to its cruel demands, and enemies of God, we now stand alive, forgiven, and adopted as children of God. Through the story of Mephibosheth and the powerful image of Jesus nailing our record of debt to the cross, this message reminds us that grace cannot be earned, only received. When Satan accuses us of our past, we can boldly remind him of his future defeat. Question: When Satan tries to drag you back into shame by reminding you of your past sins, how can remembering that Jesus nailed your record of debt to the cross change the way you approach God as Father rather than as Judge?
