The final message in our series through the Gospel of John! Check out the notes for a summary of the whole Gospel. 

This message centers around the final chapter of the Gospel and Peter’s reconciliation with Jesus. Peter’s experience can help us understand what reconciliation with Jesus means for each of us. Regardless of who you are and what you have done, Jesus is ready to reconcile with you. He loves you!

The first disciples weren’t superheroes of faith—they were ordinary people with real doubts and real struggles, just like us. Yet Jesus met them with peace, forgiveness, and the promise of new life, and He offers the same for us. He calls us to continue what He started, recognizing that forgiveness is the heart of the message. The intention of John’s gospel, and the heart of this message, is that all who read it would also exclaim, like Thomas, that Jesus is “My Lord and my God”! This is the exclamation that declares that you believe that Jesus is who He says He is.

Do you struggle with doubts? This message will encourage you to let those doubts lead you to Jesus!

Early on Sunday morning, Mary Magdalene arrived at the tomb expecting death but instead encountered the beginning of everything new. What seemed like darkness and despair quickly turned into light and victory as the empty tomb revealed the truth of the resurrection. This wasn’t a mysterious disappearance… it was evidence that Jesus had conquered death and fulfilled everything He had promised. When John saw the linen wrappings lying there, he believed, realizing that the resurrection changes everything. It completes the Gospel, turning forgiveness into new life and sorrow into hope. Just as God spoke light into the darkness at creation, He now calls each of us out of darkness into His marvelous light, inviting us… like Mary… to encounter Him personally and go tell the world what we have seen.

If you need a boost, then this message is for you.

No matter who you are or what you’ve done, God’s grace & mercy can transform your life. – Pastor Annie

Don’t let guilt, shame or mistakes define you. Lean on God’s grace and mercy daily. Step into purpose and let your story impact others. Your life matters!

The death of Jesus is such a monumental event for humanity that believers are instructed to  pause and reflect and contemplate this moment, not only to remember, but to commemorate through communion. Walk with us through the turning point of all history in this powerful message.

Join us as we explore Pilate’s choice in John 18:28–19:16 and discover how the truth changes everything.

Pilate stood between truth and compromise, torn between recognizing Jesus’ innocence and yielding to political pressure. The crowd’s demand—Barabbas or Jesus—represents the choice between the Truth and lies. This message challenges us to choose Jesus over Barabbas, stand firm in truth, and live for a Kingdom that’s different. If what Jesus says about life is the truth why do we choose to believe lies?

Be ready to change—because the truth of the Gospel affects every area of a believer’s life.

Failure when you’re following Jesus looks different. Even as Jesus faced betrayal and arrest, He fully realized all that was going to happen to Him—never a victim, always in control. Peter’s denial and the high priests’ blindness reveal human failure, but they also point to divine grace. Jesus knew Peter would fail—and He called him anyway.

Do you need hope today? Do you need God’s grace for your failure? The truth is, the qualification for receiving God’s grace is knowing you don’t qualify. Check out this message and discover that there’s hope for failures, because your failure isn’t final—God’s grace gives you a future beyond your mistakes.

Baptism is more than a symbol—it’s a step of faith, and a declaration of repentance. It takes humility to repent. Jesus began His ministry by identifying Himself with sinners who are honest and brave enough to repent, to confess their sins and to be baptized. Are you looking for a fresh start? Repentance is the hope-filled word you are looking for!

In this message from Luke 12:13–21, guest preacher, Rev. Jeremiah Poulsen, invites us to examine the grip of greed and the freedom found in a generous life. You’ll be challenged and encouraged to reflect on how generosity marks the life of a follower of Christ, and how real giving leads to real Gospel impact. Come ready to be inspired by the grace of Jesus, who gave everything for us, and learn how your giving—of time, talents, and resources—can make an eternal difference.

John 17 is a prayer of Jesus that encapsulates the whole Gospel of John. The heart of the whole Gospel is found in the introduction of this prayer. 

For the church to advance in the way Jesus plans, unity and being solely centered on Him is of the uttermost importance. We are all called to make a difference and Jesus prays for us that we will walk in eternal life, the abundant life that begins the moment we trust Him.

The idea of Sorrow to Joy runs throughout the Bible. If we live trusting that Jesus conquered sin and death, and that he has overcome the world, we can rest in the life-changing confidence that he will turn our sorrow into joy. If Jesus has overcome it means that even though there may be sorrow today it is possible to find joy once again!

Whatever your current trial, check out this message and be encouraged the Jesus has overcome and your sorrow will turn to joy!

Jesus warned us that, as His followers, we should expect to be hated because the world hated Him first. He calls us to stay faithful in the face of opposition and to respond with love, no matter how strong the resistance. Check out this timely message from the Gospel of John. Determine to make a difference. Stay faithful!

Making a difference in the lives of others isn’t always easy—it takes effort, time, and perseverance. But on the other side of that commitment is something deeply meaningful: joy. When we lose sight of the joy, it can start to feel like just hard work. We discover incredible fulfillment when we are determined to live for something greater than ourselves.

What could God do through you if you decide to find the joy in making a difference?

This year, we’re stepping into a powerful call to action—Determined to Make a Difference. It’s more than a theme; it’s a mindset that begins with our attitude and takes effort as we actively partner with the Holy Spirit. We are committed to making a real impact for the gospel in our community. We’re not just attending church; we are the Church—living on mission, loving boldly, and letting our light shine so others may see Jesus through us.

True growth doesn't happen by accident—it’s intentional, sacrificial, and deeply spiritual. In this message, we explore the call to stretch as followers of Jesus: to pursue sanctification, embrace humility, and fix our eyes on Christ. Growth requires not only consistent effort but also a posture of humility and a life rooted in prayer. Embrace the challenge to grow beyond your comfort zone and become more like Jesus—one small step at a time.

In this message we’re leaning into one of the most personal and challenging topics: healing. Whether you’ve experienced God’s miraculous touch, are still waiting for a breakthrough, or carrying questions and pain, this message will encourage your heart and strengthen your faith. God heals today. He works in the waiting, and our ultimate hope is found in His promise to make all things new.

Do you want to deepen your connection with God? Are you listening to Him? Prayer is more than speaking—it’s listening with the intent to obey. This message explores how God still speaks and how we can quiet our hearts to hear Him. The story of Samuel teaches us to slow down, listen closely, and respond in faith. Slow down, be still, and say, “Speak, Lord, your servant is listening.”

In this message, Pastor Bryan explores the difference between knowledge and wisdom. While knowledge is information gained through learning or experience, wisdom is a gift from God—it's the ability to discern what is right, true, and lasting.

True wisdom begins with a humble heart, a reverent fear of the Lord, and a desire to follow His Word. God leads us through His Word, our life circumstances, and the peace He places in our hearts.
