Self-Improvement Christianity Relationships

Season 5

The Blood of Jesus | Liliana Rivera

In this communion message, we remember the sacrifice of Jesus and what His blood accomplished for us. He was pierced for our transgressions, crushed for our iniquities, and by His wounds we are healed. His sacrifice saved us, and it is finished. As we remember what He has done, we can give thanks for His forgiveness, healing, mercy, and unfailing love.

The Discerning Witness | Keith Cross

How do we live as a witness for Christ in a culture that continues to change? In this message, Pastor Keith Cross looks at three paradigms that help us navigate the times we live in: the Heart, Culture, and Authority paradigms. We’re reminded that God’s Word has not changed, even when the culture around us has. As followers of Christ, we are called to recognize the spiritual battle, pray for boldness and courage, and shine our light with both radical grace and absolute truth.

Growing Through Relationships | Haley Cartwright

We were never meant to do life alone. In this message, we’re reminded that God places the lonely in families (Psalm 68:6) and that He often works through relationships and community to bring healing, growth, encouragement, and belonging. Past hurt can make it hard to trust again or take another step, but God invites us into a family where we can grow together and discover what He has for us. Maybe your next step is joining a Connect Group, building a new relationship, asking for prayer, or simply opening your heart to what God wants to do. You have a place. You have a family. And you don’t have to walk through life alone.

Building a Life that Outlasts the Storm | Keith Cross

In this message, Pastor Keith Cross walks through Matthew 7:24-27 and Jesus’ teaching about the wise and foolish builders. Both houses faced the same storm, but only one stood because it was built on a solid foundation. To build a life that outlasts the storm, we must: • Dig Beneath the Surface and allow God to work deeper than our outward appearance. • Demand the Divine Blueprint by making God’s Word the foundation for how we live. • Do the Word Daily because spiritual maturity is shown through obedience, not just what we know. Storms are inevitable, but a life rooted in Christ and built on His Word can stand firm when the storm comes.

Safe on Broken Pieces | Keith Cross

Storms can break things we thought would last. But broken doesn’t mean finished. In Safe on Broken Pieces, Pastor Keith Cross walks through Acts 27 and Paul’s journey through a storm that left the ship completely broken. Yet everyone made it safely to shore. When you face a storm you didn’t start: - Anchor yourself in God’s Word - Remember who you are - Grab onto the broken pieces You may not be able to control the storm, but you can trust God to navigate you through it. He doesn’t need a whole boat to get you safely to shore.

Reading the Radar | Keith Cross

Not every storm means the same thing. In the latest message from Eye of the Storm: Navigating What You Didn’t See Coming, Pastor Keith looks at four different kinds of storms we see in Scripture: storms that correct, protect, oppose, and perfect. Jonah’s storm came from disobedience. The disciples faced a storm while following Jesus. Job endured a storm he could not explain. And in every situation, God was still present and still at work. Sometimes the question isn’t just, “How do I get out of this storm?” It’s, “What is God doing in the middle of it?” When you learn to read the radar, you stop fighting the wind and start cooperating with God.

Navigating the Meantime | Keith Cross

In Mark 6:45–53, the disciples were exactly where Jesus told them to be, yet they found themselves in the middle of the sea, fighting against the wind and struggling to move forward. Jesus saw them in the storm and came to them. This message reminds us that the storm does not always mean we are out of God’s will. Sometimes God is teaching us to trust Him when we cannot see what He is doing.

Humble Yourselves | Rob Rainville

In this message, we're reminded that God calls us to intentionally humble ourselves, following the example of Jesus, who willingly laid aside His advantage to serve and save us (Philippians 2:3-11). As we clothe ourselves with humility, God shapes our hearts, gives grace to the humble, and lifts us up in His perfect timing (1 Peter 5:5-6).

Great Skin, Grateful Heart | Luke Adams

In Luke 17, Jesus healed ten men with leprosy, but only one came back to give thanks. The question Jesus asked still speaks to us today: “Where are the other nine?” Gratitude begins when we remember not only what Jesus has done, but who He is. It’s easy to seek God’s hand for what He can give us, but true worship comes when we seek His heart. Don’t let familiarity cause you to lose your awe of the cross. Take time today to remember His grace, His mercy, and the life we have because of Him.

Seeing What God Sees | Arin Nicholson

In 2 Kings 6, Elisha prayed a simple prayer: "Open his eyes, Lord, so that he may see." When God answered, the servant realized he wasn't surrounded by defeat. He was surrounded by the presence and power of God. This message reminds us that God wants to open our spiritual eyes so we can see what He is doing around us. When He changes the way we see, He changes the way we live. We become people who trust His presence, share the gospel, and respond with obedience. Scripture: 2 Kings 6:8-17 When God opens our eyes, we stop seeing only the problems around us and begin seeing the opportunities He has placed before us.
