Title: Zoom Out Passage: Psalm 119:89-96 Series: CXIX - Lighting the Way Speaker: Daniel Fuoco Date: July 19th, 2026 The world we live in is marked by change and uncertainty, but Scripture invites us to look beyond what is temporary and see a greater reality. Psalm 119:89-96 calls us to zoom out and behold the God who spoke creation into being and continues to uphold all things through His faithful Word.
Title: Waiting Game Passage: Psalm 119:81-88 Series: CXIX - Lighting the Way Speaker: Ronnie Cannon Date: July 12th, 2026 What do you do when following God feels like it’s getting harder, not easier? This Sunday, we step into the raw, honest struggle of someone weary from waiting, worn down by opposition, and surrounded by lies—yet still clinging to God’s promises. This message explores the pain of waiting, the pressure of a hostile world, and the sustaining power of God’s steadfast love. If you’ve ever felt close to giving up, this part of the psalm will meet you there and point you to the life-giving faithfulness of God.
Title: Vantage Point Passage: Psalm 119:73-80 Series: CXIX - Lighting the Way Speaker: Sam Cassese Date: July 5th, 2026 Some truths can only be seen from places none of us would choose to visit. Psalm 119 was written from the heights of affliction, where pain gave the psalmist a perspective he couldn't have gained any other way. What he discovered changed the way he saw God, suffering, and himself. Whether you're carrying a burden today or simply want a faith that can withstand life's storms, join us this Sunday as we learn what can only be seen from the vantage point of pain.
Title: Before and After Passage: Psalm 119:65-72 Series: CXIX Speaker: Sam Cassese Date: June 28th, 2026 Have you ever looked at an old picture and thought, I’ve changed so much? We celebrate before-and-after stories of fitness, careers, and makeovers. But what about our faith? What does spiritual transformation actually look like, and how does God bring it about? Most of us want to grow, but few of us would choose the path that actually produces it. Psalm 119 gives us a rare glimpse into one person’s spiritual before and after picture, revealing not only what changed, but how it changed. Join us this Sunday as we discover God’s surprising process for forming mature faith, and why the very thing you’d rather avoid may be the tool He’s using to transform you.
Title: The Dad Directive Passage: Deuteronomy 6:1-12 Speaker: Sam Cassese Date: June 21st 2026 Most dads know the feeling. You wonder if you're spending enough time, making the right decisions, or giving your kids what they need most. This Father's Day, we'll look at God's ancient blueprint for fatherhood and discover a calling that is both simpler and more significant than many of us realize. In a world obsessed with leaving behind wealth, experiences, and opportunities, God invites fathers to pass on something that can impact generations. Join us as we uncover The Dad Directive.

Sermon Title: A Tale of Two Responses Passage: Luke 18:18-30, 19:1-10 Sermon Series: God Over Money Speaker: Aaron Hixson Date: June 14, 2026 We live in a culture obsessed with money - whether we're talking about inflation, gas prices, investment properties, or the price of eggs, money is everywhere. That's one of the reasons that it's so easy to slip into believing lies about what money is, who it belongs to, and the role it's supposed to play in our lives. In this sermon, we'll explore what Jesus had to say about money to two guys who had more than they could spend in a lifetime. Visit our website at www.fortheshore.com
Sermon Title: The Wise Ways of Wealth Passages from Proverbs Sermon Series: God Over Money Speaker: Sam Cassese Date: June 7, 2026 Every one of us handles money, but very few of us have been taught how to handle it well. We all know the stress of wondering where it went, whether we have enough, or what the future might hold. The book of Proverbs offers a different path. This week, we'll explore three simple but powerful habits that mark people who are wise with money. Whether you're thriving financially or feeling overwhelmed, God's wisdom can help you move from anxiety and drift to confidence and purpose. Visit our website at www.fortheshore.com
Sermon Title: The Money Playbook Passages from Proverbs Sermon Series: God Over Money Speaker: Sam Cassese Date: May 31, 2026 Money touches almost every part of life, yet most of us were never really taught how to handle it. So we hustle, spend, stress, compare, chase security, and hope we’re doing okay. But what if some of the financial habits we call normal are actually traps? In this sermon, we’re turning to the wisdom of Proverbs to uncover four financial traps that quietly shape our lives and discover a better way to think about wealth, integrity, contentment, and eternity.

Sermon Title: The Million Dollar Question Sermon Series: God Over Money Passage: Matthew 6:19-24 Speaker: Sam Cassese Date: May 24, 2026 What if the biggest danger to your soul isn’t obvious greed, but a quiet attachment to things that won’t last? We all know money can make life more comfortable. But what if money has quietly become the thing we’re living for? Most of us spend our lives chasing security, comfort, and “just a little more,” assuming that’s normal. But Jesus asks a piercing question: What are you actually investing your life in? In this sermon, we begin a new series called God Over Money by wrestling with a Million Dollar Question that cuts beneath the surface of our bank accounts and straight into the direction of our lives: What treasure are you really chasing?

Sermon Title: Road Trip Passage: Ezra 8 Sermon Series: Rebuilt Speaker: Sam Cassese Date: May 10, 2026 What if the hardest part of the journey isn’t the road ahead, but the fear that you don’t have what it takes to make it there? In Ezra 8, God’s people set out on a dangerous four-month journey across the wilderness toward the place God had called them to go. Some were “second wavers” who had lagged behind for years before finally stepping out in faith. Others were ministers answering God’s call to serve. And all of them had to learn the same lesson: the hand of God is stronger than every obstacle, fear, and ambush along the way. If you’ve ever felt stuck, overwhelmed, late to the journey, or uncertain about your next step, this message is for you. Come discover the God who still carries His people exactly where He calls them to go.
