  The Fullness of Joy

  Sep 27, 202635 min

  We spend so much of our lives searching for something that will finally satisfy us—something that will make us feel full. But Psalm 16 points us to a joy that doesn’t leave us looking for more. In this final message of The Joy of the Lord, Pastor Mike explores what it means to find abundant joy in the presence of God, trust Him with our future, and allow His Word to steady us when our thoughts and worries threaten our peace. When the Lord is our portion, we can say with confidence: His joy is enough.

  Looking for Joy in All the Wrong Places

  Sep 20, 202632 min

  Where do we look when our joy feels like it’s running dry? In John 15, Jesus gives us a picture of a vine and its branches—and shows us that lasting joy comes from staying connected to Him. In this message from The Joy of the Lord, Pastor Mike explores how dependence on Jesus, trust in His will, and obedience to His ways lead us away from looking for joy in all the wrong places and toward a joy that is full.

  The Journey to Joy

  Sep 13, 202636 min

  What do you do when pain has taken a toll on your joy? In the opening message of The Joy of the Lord, Pastor Mike walks through Psalm 126 and the promise that “those who sow in tears will reap with shouts of joy.” Through the imagery of carrying, sowing, and cultivating seeds, we discover that healing doesn’t come from ignoring our pain, but from confronting it, processing it, and allowing God to use it. Your pain doesn’t have to scar you—it can mark you, shape your testimony, and become part of the journey that leads you back to joy.

  Where We're Going

  Sep 6, 202629 min

  As The Valley Church prepares to step into a new season, Pastor Mike looks at Paul’s words in Philippians 3 and the call to keep pressing forward. We can celebrate what God has done without believing we’ve arrived. There is still more race to run, more growth ahead, and more God wants to do in us and through us. The goal isn’t to arrive—it’s to keep pursuing Jesus with everything we have. Our past can remind us of God’s faithfulness, but it should never keep us from moving toward what He has next. With eternity in view, we press on with faith, expectation, and confidence that the best is still to come.

  Where We've Been

  Aug 30, 202637 min

  What happens after you say yes to God? In Luke 5, Simon Peter obeys Jesus even when the command doesn’t make sense—and the result is both miraculous and overwhelming. His nets begin to tear, his boat begins to sink, and suddenly his obedience creates a whole new set of problems. In Part 1 of Our Next Step, Pastor Mike looks back at the story of The Valley Church and the steps of faith that brought us here, while challenging us to consider our own “obstacle of obedience.” Because following Jesus doesn’t always lead to an easier life, sometimes it leads to what we’ll call the mess of yes. The question isn’t whether obedience will be messy. The question is whether we’d rather live in the mess of yes or the comfort of no.
