This week we start our new series "A Seat at the Table". We explore the story of Levi, a tax collector who received an unexpected invitation from Jesus that transformed his life. Despite his background and the rejection he faced from his community, Levi was called to follow, to find belonging at Jesus' table, and to understand the heart of God. Through Levi's journey, we see how Jesus invites each of us to join Him, offering acceptance, intimacy, and a path toward transformation. This message reminds us that no one is beyond grace, and the call to follow Jesus is about transformation, not perfection.

In the final message of our 'Choose Your Hard' series, Pastor Matthew dives into what it means to live a life of 'Less and More.' Reflecting on Romans 8, he shows us how to experience less defeat and more victory through the power of the Holy Spirit. As we focus on progressing in our faith, we'll explore how living by the Spirit leads to less rebellion, selfishness, and indifference, and more obedience, sacrifice, and devotion. Join us as we learn to embrace this transformative journey of becoming more aligned with God's purpose for our lives.

In this week’s message from our "Choose Your Hard" series, Pastor Matthew explores the importance of transforming our minds to break free from sin. Drawing from Romans 12:2, he shows how lasting change comes from renewing our thoughts and living by God’s patterns. Join us as we learn how a transformed mind leads to a life aligned with God’s will.

In this week’s message from our “Choose Your Hard” series, Pastor Rick dives into the concept of abandoning the middle ground in our walk with Christ. Life is full of choices, and while staying in the comfortable middle might seem like the easy option, it often leaves us unfulfilled. Using real-life examples and the teachings of Matthew 16:24-26, Pastor Rick challenges us to let go of lesser things and pursue a life fully committed to Jesus.

Series Title: "Choose Your Hard"

In this sermon, Pastor Matthew tackles the tough spiritual issues and sins we all face, with today's focus on our "signature sin"—the repetitive, deeply rooted sin we naturally fall into.

Key Truths:

1. We Naturally Sin: Sin is part of our nature, inherited at birth (Psalm 51:5). While our temptations vary, sin has always existed, and we aren't alone in our struggles (1 Corinthians 10:13).

2. We Have a Repetitive Sin: Paul acknowledges the ongoing struggle of doing what we know is wrong (Romans 7:18-20). This "besetting sin" is often rationalized or justified, making it harder to overcome (Hebrews 12:1).

3. Our Sin is Evil: Sin isn't just bad—it's evil. Left unchecked, it can destroy relationships, health, and even lives (Romans 6:23). We need to view it as something to be actively fought, not tolerated.

4. We Are in a War Against Sin: There's a constant battle between our sinful nature and our desire to do good. We're either fighting for freedom or being enslaved by sin (Ephesians 6:12).

5. Jesus is Our Only Hope: Freedom from sin comes through Jesus' sacrifice (2 Corinthians 5:21). Confession, not just profession, is key to breaking free (1 John 1:9). We must acknowledge and uproot sin through true repentance.

Conclusion: To rid ourselves of deep-rooted sin, we must confront and confess it to Jesus, who delivers us.
