New Phone, Who Dis? - 5/3/2026

Sermon Title: New Phone, Who Dis? Passage: Ezra 7:1-8:14 Sermon Series: Rebuilt Speaker: Sam Cassese Date: May 3, 2026 We love new! New phones, new clothes, new opportunities. But if we’re honest, most of what we call “new” is just surface-level change. Same life ... fresh paint. Deep down, there’s a quieter longing, not just to look new, but to be new. To change from the inside out. There’s this deeper kind of new we can’t quite manufacture. But we can’t stop wanting it either. In this sermon, we step into a moment when everything looked new, yet something still wasn’t right. And we realize through the story of Ezra that perhaps the “new” we’ve been chasing isn’t something we can create, but something only God can do.

21 Questions - 4/26/26

Sermon: 21 Questions Passage: John 6:22-35 Sermon Series: I AM Speaker: Sam Cassese Date: April 26, 2026 What if the questions you’re asking God are actually revealing something deeper about your heart? In this sermon, we step into a moment where a crowd chases Jesus for what He can give, only to be confronted with what they truly need. As three simple questions unfold, Jesus exposes our tendency to settle for temporary fixes, to try to earn what can only be received, and to miss what’s right in front of us. If you’ve ever wrestled with unmet desires, spiritual exhaustion, or wondered why faith doesn’t feel satisfying, this message invites you to discover a better kind of bread—the kind that doesn’t just fill you for a moment, but satisfies you completely.

Reclaiming Real Intimacy - 4/19/2026

Sermon Title: Reclaiming Real Intimacy Speaker: Michael Hearn Date: April 19, 2026 Are you tired of the exhausting "fake me" persona? From the Garden of Eden to modern marriages, sin and shame drive us into isolation, making us believe we must cover our brokenness rather than confess it. Join us as we explore how the "fake me" is incapable of truly giving or receiving love, and how only the "real me," (wounds and all!) can experience genuine intimacy. Whether you're married or single, come and discover the freedom of being fully known and fully loved as we learn to hide our lives in the grace of Christ rather than behind our own defenses.

The Light of the World - 4/12/2026

Sermon Title: The Light of the World Passage: John 8:12-20 Sermon Series: I AM Speaker: Ronnie Cannon Date: April 12, 2026 You’ve seen the forecast. Tomorrow, the weatherman is calling for…darkness. And the next day. And the next. Not in a physical sense, but you can feel it. Another tragedy. Another headline. Another reminder of the darkness in our world. But hope is not lost. Evil does not prevail. Darkness does not win. In this sermon we learn that Jesus makes a bold claim: Light has come into the world and it’s found in a Person. He is the Light of the world and in Him is life.

Heart Trouble - Easter 2026

Sermon Title: Heart Trouble Passage: John 14:1-7 Sermon Series: I AM Speaker: Sam Cassese Date: 4/5/2026 - Easter We all know what it’s like to look fine on the outside while something deeper churns beneath the surface—anxiety, questions, a quiet ache we can’t quite shake. On that first Easter, Jesus spoke directly into hearts just like ours, not with empty reassurance but with a bold invitation: trust me. What if the rest you’ve been chasing isn’t found in fixing everything, but in trusting someone who has already overcome it all? And what if the path to that kind of life isn’t a path at all, but a person? This Easter, we step into one of Jesus’ most striking claims and discover why the way to life runs straight through the One who walked out of the grave.

The Day Death Died - Good Friday 2026

Sermon Title: The Day Death Died Passage: John 11:17-44 Sermon Series: I AM Speaker: Sam Cassese Date: 4/3/2026 - Good Friday Two thousand years ago, a man was laid in a tomb—wrapped in linen, sealed behind stone, mourned by those who loved him. It’s a story you think you know. But what if you don’t? What if this moment reveals something deeper about death, about Jesus, and about you? This Good Friday, we step into a familiar scene and discover an unexpected truth: the day death itself began to die.

The Good Shepherd - 3/29/2026

Title: The Good Shepherd Series: I AM Passage: John 10:1-18 Speaker: Sam Cassese Date: March 29, 2026 In a world full of voices competing for our attention, we’ve grown used to filtering, scrolling, and second-guessing who to trust. Everyone seems to be building something, asking for something, offering a version of life that promises more. But beneath all the noise, there’s a deeper question we don’t often stop to ask: Who are we actually following? And what if not every voice deserves our trust? In this sermon, we’ll explore the difference between voices that take and a voice that gives, between influence that shapes us and a presence that truly knows us. If you’ve ever felt the tension between skepticism and longing, between keeping your guard up and wanting something real, this is a conversation you won’t want to miss.

I Got This - 3/22/2026

TItle: I Got This Sermon Series: I AM Passage: John 15:1-11 Date: March 22, 2026 Speaker: Sam Cassese We’ve all said it, “I got this.” Sometimes with confidence, sometimes just hoping it’s true. But what happens when the strength we’re relying on isn’t enough? What if the pressure to hold it all together or the fear of not measuring up is actually pointing to something deeper? This weekend, we’re stepping into one of Jesus’ most powerful “I AM” statements and discovering an invitation that challenges how we live and where we look for strength. If you’ve ever felt like you’re running on empty or just trying to keep it together, this is a message you won’t want to miss.

Feelin' It - 3/15/2026

Sermon Title: Feelin’ It Passage: Ezra 6:13-22 Sermon Series: Rebuilt Speaker: Sam Cassese Date: March 15, 2026 Have you ever looked back on your life and wondered how you even got here? Through setbacks, detours, and delays, somehow the story kept moving forward. And when you pause long enough to look around, you see clues that perhaps the biggest movements in your life aren’t actually driven by your strength, momentum, or timing after all. In this sermon, we’ll look at a powerful scene in scripture that invites us to step back and recognize a story much bigger than our own effort. And once you see it, you may start noticing those clues everywhere.

Plot Twist - 3/8/2026

Sermon Title: Plot Twist Sermon Series: Rebuilt Passage: Ezra 5-6:12 Speaker: Sam Cassese Date: March 8, 2026 You think you know how it’s going to end. You think you have it all figured out... and then everything changes. Plot twist. Few things are more exciting than when someone flips the script. It’s true in movies. It’s true in history. And it’s also true in our lives. In this sermon, we see how God shows up for His people in the midst of our pain, tragedy, and suffering to take control of the story and deliver the ultimate Plot Twist for our good.
