In this message, Pastor Leonce shares a deeply personal story about Jake, a man battling addiction who seemed unmoved by the gospel until God moved in an unexpected way. Drawing from the story of Stephen in the Book of Acts, this sermon reminds us that our witness matters, even when we don’t see the fruit right away.

Whether you're feeling discouraged, questioning your impact, or just needing a reminder that God uses every seed we plant, this message is for you.

Have you ever felt like the world is falling apart and God is silent? In this powerful message, Pastor Matt walks through the story of Stephen in Acts to remind us that even when life feels hopeless, God is still moving — and His plan is unstoppable.

Through rejection, suffering, and even death, God’s glory breaks through. What looked like an ending for Stephen was actually the spark of something greater. This message will help you see that God is not limited by circumstances, and He can use your lowest moments to lead you into unstoppable purpose.

If you’ve been feeling disconnected, discouraged, or unsure of where God is, this is your invitation to surrender, step into community, and join what God is doing — right here, right now.

Are you living up to your God-given potential—or settling for comfort? In this Sunday's message, Pastor Doug unpacks James 1:2-4 and challenges us to rethink how we approach trials. True growth doesn’t come from ease, but through perseverance.

He also shares the critical role of community in this journey. You weren’t meant to do life alone. Drawing from Hebrews and the concept of “scenius,” this message explains how greatness often emerges from collaboration and how small groups can be your key to spiritual growth.

Ever felt taken for granted, overlooked, or invisible—even when you're giving your all? In this special "Jesus Too" sermon on Mother's Day, Pastor Leonce draws from Luke 17:11-19 and the story of the ten lepers, revealing how even Jesus experienced what it's like to be unappreciated.

Whether you’re serving others without recognition, loving without thanks, or just tired of being unseen, this message will remind you: God sees it all. He values what the world forgets. You are not alone—and your efforts are not wasted.
