Latest Sermon
Try Jesus, Not Me
In this sermon, Pastor Charlie explores Jesus' call to the tired and burdened in Matthew 11:28. In a world of confusion and suffering, Jesus offers to share your load and give you rest for your soul in Him.
Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner?
In Luke 14:16-24, Jesus takes apart rigid religious norms using parables. Parables reveal God’s true nature. In this sermon, Pastor Charlie explores the Parable of the Great Banquet. In this parable, God shows how abundant His grace is.
I Messed Up, but I Won’t Give Up
The Parable of the Pharisee and the Tax Collector in Luke 18:9-14 shows us the consequences of misunderstanding God’s mercy. Pastor Charlie’s message on mercy and humility can transform your spiritual life and relationship.
The Overwhelming, Never-Ending, Reckless Love of God
In this sermon on Luke 15:11-32, Pastor Charlie Dates unpacks the radical grace and boundless love of God in the Prodigal Son parable.
He Came for Me
Pastor Charlie Dates dives into Luke 15:1-10, revealing God's relentless pursuit of the lost and His boundless joy in their return. Discover how you are invaluable to Him, no matter where you’ve wandered.
Divine Disruption
Jesus disrupts our lives to foster growth and maturity in us. The world needs mature disciples. Embracing disruption, as seen in Mark 5:1-20, leads to freedom, wholeness, and transformation. Jesus can turn your bondage into a powerful testimony.
Running on Empty
This sermon highlights the necessity of the Holy Spirit in our lives. Without it, Christians and churches falter. Empowered by the Spirit, we become effective witnesses, understand the Gospel's true message, and build vibrant, thriving churches that extend beyond their walls.
Momma Knows Best… or Does She?
Genesis 25:20-23 and 27:1-17 reveal the profound blessing found in waiting on God's promises, particularly in the lives of our children. This sermon inspires us to trust in God's promises and empowers us to pass on a legacy of unwavering faith to the next generation.
If You See Something, Say Something
Pastor Charlie Dates uses Luke 24:36-49 to ignite a passion for witnessing. The scripture affirms that our lives are a testament to God's divine design and our testimony carries the power to bring hope and transformation to a world in need.
He Came to See About Me
In John 21:1-14, we witness a powerful encounter between Jesus and His disciples, illustrating that retirement or resignation doesn't equate to the end of purpose. This sermon inspires hope, emphasizing that encountering the risen Christ breathes new life into retirement or resignation, infusing our lives with meaning and purpose.
He Made a Believer Out of Me
In John 20:24-29, we encounter Thomas, the skeptic among Jesus' disciples after another post-resurrection sighting of Jesus. His insistence on tangible proof mirrors the struggles of many today grappling with faith. But even the most ardent unbelievers can find redemption in Christ.
Only God Can Judge Me
Sermon by Pastor Jamal Johnson on As Jesus stood before Pilate in Matthew 27:19, He was identifying with our brokenness through His divine Me Too movement. He became pain eligible, capable of suffering, and sadness eligible just like me and you. In this sermon, we see a savior that can identify with all of the brokenness and pain we feel in our hearts.
How To Handle A Sad Day
In Luke 24:13-27, Jesus showed up on the back side of the resurrection and helped some disciples who had lost hope. If you listen for Him, Jesus has the ability to show up where you are sad and turn things around. He loves us too much to leave us.
