In this sermon, AnDina Wiley, Director of Family Discipleship at Christ Community Church, shares a powerful message on how ministry is meant to be a shared calling, not a solo mission. Drawing from Ecclesiastes 4:9–10, Romans 12:4–6, and John 13:35, she shows how serving together reflects God’s design for His church.

Whether you're serving in youth ministry, leading a small group, or simply seeking deeper connection in your church, this message will encourage you to move from isolation to community, because the gospel is most powerful when it’s lived out together.

Key Themes:

• Ministry is a shared calling, not a solo act
• Diverse leadership strengthens connection
• Students learn faith through relationships, not just roles
• Modeling Christian community builds a lasting impact
• Every believer has a vital role to play

💬 “We don’t just build a ministry—we build a family.”

What happens when love threatens the systems built on fear? In this powerful message from John 11:38–57, Jesus stands at the tomb of Lazarus and cries out, “Come out!”—not just to a dead man, but to all of us bound by shame, grief, fear, or exhaustion.

The raising of Lazarus is more than a miracle—it's a turning point that shakes religious power structures and reveals the cost of living a resurrected life.

This week at Christ Community Church, we explore how Jesus calls us from the tombs we hide in, invites us to trust again, and commissions us to help unbind others. Resurrection is not only comfort; it is disruption and invitation.

If you’ve felt stuck in the dark or long to help others find freedom, this message is for you.

What kind of God cries with us?

In this moving sermon from John 11:28–37, we explore one of the most powerful moments in Scripture: "Jesus wept." When Mary falls at Jesus' feet in grief, Jesus doesn’t offer an answer—He offers His presence. He is deeply moved, troubled, and undone by sorrow.

This message reminds us that Jesus meets us in our grief, not with quick fixes but with holy tears. God is not distant from our pain. He steps into it, sits with us in the silence, and weeps beside us.

Lament is not weakness — it is sacred. God's love doesn’t bypass sorrow — it moves through it. Before resurrection comes stillness. And Jesus meets us there.

Practice included: A guided moment of silence with Christ — a time to breathe, reflect, and be held by the God who weeps.

Whether you're struggling, grieving, or simply needing to know that you're not alone, this message is for you.

The Quiet Persistence of Divine Love | John 10:31–42 Sermon

In The Grip of Grace | John 10:17–30

In The Grip of Grace | John 10:17–30 | Christ Community Church Ardmore

Jesus steps into the tension of division during the Festival of Dedication, not to restore stone temples, but to reveal Himself as the true dwelling place of God. In John 10:17–30, we witness His bold claim: “I and the Father are one.”

This message explores:

The pain of division and disbelief

What it means to be known as His sheep

The deep security we find in His grasp

A healing practice of resting in God’s love

Key Scripture: John 10:17–30 — “My sheep listen to my voice; I know them, and they follow me…”

If you're weary, anxious, or searching for belonging, this message is for you. Grace is not something we hold onto — it’s what holds us. No one can snatch us from His hand.

🕊️ Practice the 'Held Prayer' at the end of this video for a moment of grounding peace.
