Psalm 118, The Day the Lord has Made
 
Have you ever wondered how differently you would face your day if you truly believed—deep down—that God is for you? In The Day the Lord Has Made, Pastor David Menard walks us through Psalm 118, revealing not just a familiar phrase but a profound prophecy pointing to Jesus and the cross. This psalm celebrates God’s unchanging mercy, His steadfast love, and His relentless faithfulness—from Israel’s deliverance at Passover to our redemption in Christ. Pastor David beautifully traces how this ancient song, sung for generations, ultimately finds its fulfillment in Jesus, the rejected cornerstone who became our salvation. With rich insights into God’s goodness and a clear call to gratitude and trust, he shows how this passage invites us to see God’s heart toward us—merciful, patient, powerful, and deeply personal.
 
This is a message you’ll want to listen to with an open Bible and an open heart. As Pastor David unpacks Psalm 118, you’ll be invited to step into its promises for your own life—to trade fear for boldness, entitlement for gratitude, and self-reliance for trust in the God who fights for you, leads you, and never gives up on you. Let the truth of this psalm challenge and encourage you. Rediscover the day God made—the day of Jesus’ sacrifice—and let its reality shape how you walk through every day that follows. Don’t miss the opportunity to hear this powerful teaching that will deepen your confidence in God and stir a fresh sense of awe for His mercy that truly endures forever.

    Psalm 51, God Restores the Broken Pt. 2
     
    Have you ever reached a point where your own choices left you feeling empty, exposed, and desperately in need of restoration? In God Restores the Broken, Pastor David Menard unpacks Psalm 51 through the raw, honest story behind it—David’s catastrophic fall in 2 Samuel 11–12. With gripping clarity, he walks through David’s temptation, the ignored warning signs, the downward spiral of sin, and the crushing inner collapse that followed. But the heart of the message shines through David’s confession in Psalm 51: a man utterly broken, falling on the mercy, lovingkindness, and tender compassion of God—who stands ready not only to forgive but to restore.
     
    This message invites you not merely to listen, but to enter the story—to see your own need for grace and the God who runs toward the repentant. Pastor David shows how Psalm 51 confronts us, comforts us, and leads us back to joy: exposing our sin, calling us into truth, and reminding us that God alone can wash, renew, and recreate what we cannot fix. If you’ve been carrying guilt, pretending everything is fine, or longing to regain the closeness with God you once knew, this message will stir your heart. Don’t wait—let the urgency and beauty of David’s prayer draw you into the same restoration God still offers today.

    Psalm 50, True Faith vs. Worthless Faith
     
    What if God called you into His courtroom today and examined the true condition of your faith—would it stand or collapse under the weight of His righteous judgment? In True Faith vs. Worthless Faith: When Worship Meets Judgment, Pastor David Menard walks us through the sobering and stunning message of Psalm 50. This psalm opens with God Himself arriving in blazing glory, summoning His people to account. Though Israel continued their religious rituals, their hearts had drifted into empty formalism and powerless faith. Pastor David unpacks the four movements of the psalm: God revealing Himself as Judge, confronting hollow worship, exposing the impotence of pseudo-faith, and graciously calling His people back to a genuine, transforming trust in Him.
     
    This message invites you to slow down, listen deeply, and allow the Holy Spirit to evaluate the faith you claim. Psalm 50 challenges us to return to the kind of life-giving faith God desires—one marked by gratitude, obedience, dependence, and transformation. As Pastor David shows, God is not interested in religious performance but in hearts that truly know and love Him. If you’ve ever wondered whether your faith is real, growing, and aligned with God’s heart, this teaching will both convict and encourage you. Listen in and discover why true faith is urgent, powerful, and gloriously worth pursuing.

    Psalm 73, Why do the Wicked Prosper?
     
    Have you ever looked around and wondered why people who reject God seem to have it all—while those who love Him often struggle? In “Why Do the Wicked Prosper?” Pastor David Menard takes us through Psalm 73, where Asaph, a worship leader and prophet of Israel, wrestles with this same question. Caught between faith and frustration, Asaph envies the wealthy and questions God’s justice—until he enters God’s sanctuary and sees the truth. Through vivid storytelling and deep biblical insight, Pastor David reveals how Asaph’s journey from envy to intimacy, from confusion to clarity, transforms his entire perspective on life, wealth, and what it truly means to be blessed.
     
    Listen in and let this message draw you closer to the heart of God. Pastor David invites us to face our own struggles with envy and self-pity and to discover how worship replaces comparison with contentment. You’ll be challenged to see your trials as part of God’s refining work and encouraged to trust His eternal purpose even when life feels unfair. In the end, Psalm 73 reminds us that when God Himself becomes our treasure, envy dies—and worship begins.

    Psalm 23, The Great Shepherd - Still Waters in a Restless World
     
    What if the Shepherd you’ve been searching for has been pursuing you all along? In The Great Shepherd from Pastor David Menard, Psalm 23 comes alive as more than a familiar passage—it becomes a vivid portrait of Jesus Himself. Pastor David unveils the “cross, the crook, and the crown” of King Jesus revealed through Psalms 22, 23, and 24—showing Christ as our suffering King, our shepherding King, and our soon-coming sovereign King. Through powerful imagery and heartfelt exposition, he reminds us that the Lord is not only our provider but our personal guide—leading us beside still waters, restoring our souls, and shaping our lives for His glory.
     
    This message invites you to slow down, breathe, and rest in the tender care of the One who knows you best. Pastor David shows how Psalm 23 speaks directly into our restless, weary hearts—assuring us that goodness and mercy are not merely following us but pursuing us every day of our lives. If you’ve ever felt lost, burdened, or unsure where God is leading, this teaching will renew your confidence in the Great Shepherd who never leaves His sheep. Listen in and discover the peace, purpose, and promise that come from walking closely with the Shepherd King.

    Revelation 2,The Missing Piece
     
    Have you ever found yourself doing all the right “Christian things”—serving, giving, showing up—yet realizing your heart isn’t as on fire for Jesus as it once was? In The Missing Piece, Pastor Greg Stier delivers a passionate message from Revelation 2 that confronts this very drift. Speaking to the church in Ephesus, Jesus commended their hard work and sound doctrine but warned, “You have left your first love.” Through vivid storytelling, personal honesty, and deep biblical insight, Pastor Greg unpacks what it means to have it all yet miss the one thing that matters most: an all-consuming love for Christ that fuels everything else.
     
    This message invites you to rediscover the passion that once filled your heart when you first met Jesus. As Pastor Greg challenges us to remember, repent, and return to our first love, he shows how rekindling that affection transforms not only our worship and work but also our witness. The Missing Piece isn’t just a sermon—it’s a call to spiritual renewal that reminds us love for Jesus is the heartbeat of authentic faith. Don’t settle for busyness without burning love—listen in and let God reignite your heart today.

    Psalm 105, Rejoicing in God's Faithfulness
     
    Have you ever wondered if God can truly be trusted—especially when life falls apart? In Rejoicing in God’s Faithfulness, Pastor JC Cooper walks through Psalm 105, showing how the unwavering reliability of God is not a theory but a proven reality throughout history. From Abraham’s covenant to Joseph’s trials and Israel’s deliverance, this psalm paints a breathtaking picture of a God who keeps every promise. Cooper reminds us that God’s faithfulness is the foundation for all trust—whether in our marriages, parenting, or everyday struggles—and that seeking the Lord is an active pursuit, not a passive hope.
     
    This message invites you to look back at God’s track record so you can face the present with confidence. As you listen, you will be challenged to trust God’s hand even in hardship, encouraged by His preservation in seasons of weakness, and reminded that His faithfulness fuels our faith. Rejoicing in God’s Faithfulness is more than a study—it is a call to worship, a reason to rejoice, and a reminder that the same God who kept His promises to Abraham still keeps them to you today.

    Psalm 22, The Fifth Gospel
     
    What do you do when God seems silent—when you cry out, but heaven does not answer? In The Fifth Gospel by Pastor David Menard, the mystery of suffering and divine silence is laid bare through Psalm 22, a passage written a thousand years before the cross yet describing Jesus’ crucifixion in astonishing detail. This psalm—called “the fifth gospel” by the early church—reveals the agony and triumph of Christ not through an observer’s eyes, but through His own. Pastor David invites listeners into the very heart of the Messiah, unveiling how prophecy, written long before crucifixion even existed, proves the truth of Scripture and the depth of God’s love.
     
    This message is more than a study of ancient prophecy—it is a revelation meant to awaken faith. As Pastor David unfolds the vivid imagery of Psalm 22, you will see that Jesus was forsaken so that you would never be. You will be challenged to trust God when you cannot see Him, to live by faith rather than sight, and to rest in the assurance that His plan of salvation has always been perfect and on time. Listen to The Fifth Gospel today and discover how the cross, foretold a millennium before it occurred, still speaks with power to your life right now.

    Have you ever wondered what God truly thinks of you—when you pray, when you struggle, or when you wait in silence for His answer? In “Our Savior in the Psalms”, Pastor JC Cooper unfolds the beauty of Psalm 40, where David’s cry for deliverance reveals not despair but trust in a faithful God who bends His ear to listen, rescues from the pit, and sets our feet upon the Rock—Christ Himself. Through vivid imagery and heartfelt exposition, Pastor JC shows how this thousand-year-old psalm points directly to Jesus—the One who delights to do the Father’s will and fulfills every promise of redemption written long before His birth.
     
    This message invites you to experience that same faith that waits patiently on the Lord. As you listen, you’ll be challenged to move beyond ritual into wholehearted devotion, to remember God’s wondrous works, and to trust His unchanging character when life feels uncertain. “Our Savior in the Psalms” calls us to magnify the Lord not just with words but with lives anchored on the Rock—lives that proclaim, even in the waiting, “He is my help and my deliverer.”

    Psalm 103, The Joy of a Grateful Heart
     
    What if the real key to joy is not found in getting more, but in remembering what you already have? In his message, The Joy of a Grateful Heart, Pastor David Menard takes us into Psalm 103, where King David does not ask God for anything but instead commands his own soul to bless the Lord. With passion and clarity, Pastor David shows how gratitude flows from recognizing God’s attributes—His forgiveness, healing, redemption, mercy, and provision. Unlike entitlement, which leaves us empty and bitter, gratitude changes the very lens through which we see life, filling us with worship and joy.
     
    This is a message you will want to hear. Pastor David not only teaches the truth of Scripture but presses it into daily life, reminding us that gratitude transforms marriages, heals relationships, and frees us from the weight of sin and self. Psalm 103 calls us to lift our eyes from what we lack to all that God has already given—and the difference is life-changing. Listen in and let the Word stir your heart to move from complaint to praise, from entitlement to thanksgiving. The joy of a grateful heart is available now—why would you wait to taste it?

    Healing a Divided Nation
     
    What will it take to heal a nation so deeply divided? In his message Healing a Divided Nation, Pastor David Menard opens Psalm 83 & 82 to show that the solution does not begin with politics, protests, or social media. It begins with God. Pastor David teaches that the enemy’s plan has always been to remove God and godly influence from society, undermining truth, morality, and the family. With clarity and urgency, he warns against the cultural lies of subjective truth and calls the church to return to God’s Word, to recognize the pasture of His blessings, and to stand boldly for objective truth rooted in Scripture.
     
    This message invites you to hear how God’s Word diagnoses our present turmoil and offers the only true remedy. Pastor David calls believers to action—bringing the nation’s sin before God, holding pastors accountable to teach truth without compromise, and exalting Jesus Christ as Lord over all. The challenge is personal: will you stand in truth, embrace God’s design, and live under His lordship? Listen and be stirred to courage, conviction, and hope, knowing that healing for our lives and for our nation is found only in Christ.

    "Where Is God in All This Evil? Part 2."  Does God feel silent when evil runs rampant?  Pastor David Menard takes us to Psalms 74 & 72, where the Psalmist cries out in the face of tragedy and devastation. We see that lament is not weakness but an act of faith — a way to press our grief, confusion, and questions into God’s hands while remembering His mighty power and sovereignty. Psalm 74 shows us how Jesus is on the throne even when the face of great evil rears its ugly head.  (This is one sermon being brought to you here in two parts).
     
    Listen to Part 2 of this sermon and hear how God calls us to reflect Christ’s leadership in our homes, churches, and communities. This message will encourage you to live under the reign of the true King and remind you that lasting justice and peace are found only in Jesus. Don’t miss the call to anchor your hope in His coming reign — and to lead with righteousness in the meantime.

    Psalm 27, Courageous Strength in the Face of Fear
     
    What if fear did not have the final word in your life? What if, even when everything around you seemed uncertain, you could stand unshaken? In his message “Courageous Strength in the Face of Fear” from Psalm 27, Pastor David Menard unpacks how David, a young man hunted by Saul and overwhelmed with enemies, could still declare, “The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear?” With vivid storytelling and careful teaching, Pastor David draws us into the psalm’s powerful truths: God Himself is our light that guides, our salvation that restores, and our strength that secures. Fear may press in, but when our foundation is in the Lord, it loses its power.
     
    This is not just David’s story—it is ours. Pastor David invites you to listen and discover how these timeless truths confront the fears we all face—fear of failure, loss, rejection, the unknown, even death itself. Psalm 27 shows us that God is not only able to rescue, but He is actively shaping us into people of courage and substance through trials. This message will challenge you to examine where you need His light, salvation, and strength right now. Do not settle for being paralyzed by fear; step into the confidence David knew, and let God’s truth anchor you today.

    Psalm 32, The Joy of Forgiveness

    Psalm 32, The Joy of Forgiveness
     
    Has the weight of your guilt ever robbed you of peace and joy? In his message Psalm 32: The Joy of Forgiveness, Pastor David Menard unpacks King David’s raw and honest psalm, written after his sin with Bathsheba and the crushing season of hiding his failure. Pastor David explains how King David’s silence and secrecy led to inner decay, sleepless nights, and spiritual emptiness. Yet in Psalm 32, King David reveals the turning point—confession. God did not expose his sin to condemn him but to forgive, heal, and restore his joy. The psalm teaches us that true blessing isn’t found in power, success, or appearances, but in the freedom of being reconciled with God.
     
    This message is an invitation to experience the same freedom King David found. Pastor David shows how the psalm calls us to stop hiding behind excuses, coping mechanisms, or outward religion, and instead come honestly before God. Forgiveness isn’t earned or worked for—it’s one honest prayer away. When we confess, God’s mercy surrounds us, lifting the crushing weight of guilt and filling our lives with peace and joy. Listen in and discover how Psalm 32 points us to Jesus, the One who takes away sin completely, and learn how you too can live in the joy of God’s forgiveness.

    If God is Good, Why is There Evil? Guest Speaker Charlie Campbell
     
    Why does a good and all-powerful God allow evil and suffering? This age-old question has led many to doubt or even reject the God of the Bible. In his message If God Is Good, Why Is There Evil?, Charlie Campbell tackles this difficult subject with clarity and biblical insight. Drawing from Revelation 21, he reminds us of God’s promise to one day wipe away every tear and remove death, sorrow, and pain forever. He explains how the existence of evil actually points to the reality of God as the moral lawgiver and unpacks why God allows suffering for a time—highlighting human free will, the work of Satan, and even natural events that serve a greater purpose in God’s design.
     
    This message invites you to consider how God uses suffering to advance the gospel, shape our character, and even set the stage for miracles. Rather than disproving God’s existence, evil and suffering reveal our deep need for Him and His redemptive plan. Listening to this teaching will challenge your perspective, strengthen your faith, and encourage you to trust God’s mercy and wisdom in the midst of hardship. Don’t miss this timely reminder that the same God who turned the greatest evil—the crucifixion of Christ—into the greatest good is working all things together for the good of those who love Him.

    How do we respond when life gets dark, painful, and overwhelming? In Praising God During Dark Times, Pastor JC Cooper brings us to Psalm 34—a psalm birthed from one of David’s most fearful and humiliating moments. Rather than spiraling into despair, David chooses to bless the Lord at all times, inviting us into a life of worship that doesn’t depend on circumstances. This message unpacks the power of praising God amid trials, highlighting how fear turns to faith when we fix our eyes on the goodness and nearness of the Lord.
     
    If you’ve ever felt crushed, anxious, or alone in your suffering, this message is for you. Pastor JC reminds us that God hears the cries of the brokenhearted and delivers His people from every trouble. Psalm 34 becomes a guide for cultivating hope, seeking God’s presence, and living with a posture of humility and trust. Don’t miss this encouragement to let your praise rise above your pain and to discover the refuge found in a God who is always near.

    What shapes the way you live each day—your own thoughts, the world’s opinions, or the voice of God? In this message, The Revelation of God in Creation, His Word, and Our Souls, Pastor JC Cooper walks through Psalm 19 to show how God reveals Himself both through the majesty of the heavens and the truth of His Word. Creation speaks loudly of His power and glory, yet it is Scripture—perfect, sure, right, and pure—that changes our hearts and draws us into deeper relationship with Him. From the wonders of galaxies to the life-giving power of God’s commands, Pastor JC unpacks how these revelations invite us to know Him personally and follow Him faithfully.
     
    This message calls you to move beyond simply admiring God’s creation to actively responding to His Word. Psalm 19 challenges us to treasure Scripture above all else, to let it convert our souls, give us wisdom, and satisfy us more than gold or honey. Pastor JC reminds us that God’s revelation always demands a response—humility, repentance, and obedience. The question is whether you will allow His truth to shape your thoughts, words, and actions so that the meditation of your heart is pleasing to your Rock and Redeemer.

    Psalm 16, Our Rich Inheritance in Jesus Christ
     
    What if the inheritance your heart craves isn’t a bigger paycheck or a pain‑free life, but the very presence of God Himself? In “Our Rich Inheritance in Jesus Christ,” Pastor David Menard walks line by line through Psalm 16, showing how its four movements—God’s protection, provision, presence, and promise of eternal life—reveal that the Lord alone is our highest good. King David’s confession, “You are the portion of my inheritance and my cup,” exposes the emptiness of lesser ambitions and points us to the treasure that can never fade. Only in God’s presence, where “fullness of joy” and “pleasures forevermore” reside, do we discover the wealth every soul longs for.
     
    Lean in and let this message reset the coordinates of your trust. Pastor David invites you to trade self‑reliance for the unshakable refuge of trusting God, showing how anchoring every decision to the Lord brings stability in chaos, clarity in confusion, and hope that even death cannot touch. Don’t settle for temporary comforts; press play and discover how making God your inheritance today unlocks a joy and security nothing—now or forever—can steal.

    What kind of person gets to dwell in the presence of God - not just in heaven someday, but in joyful fellowship with Him today?

    This message invites you to examine your walk with the Lord and discover the blessing of intimacy with Him. Pastor David emphasizes how this psalm doesn’t call for perfection but for a genuine desire to live uprightly before God and others.

    Psalm 2, The Coronation of the Messiah
     
    Why does the world resist God’s authority and reject His truth—even when His Word brings blessing and peace? In this message titled The Coronation of the Messiah, Pastor David Menard walks us through Psalm 2, a powerful prophetic psalm that unveils humanity’s rebellion against God, God’s divine response, and His unstoppable plan to establish Jesus as King over all nations. From the plotting of earthly rulers to the promise of a righteous, global kingdom ruled by Christ, this psalm reveals both the futility of rebellion and the majesty of God's eternal reign.
     
    This message invites us to respond with reverence, trust, and worship. Pastor David challenges us to see God's commands not as restrictions, but as blessings that guide us toward life, peace, and joy. As the nations rage and the world drifts further from God, Psalm 2 calls us to anchor our hearts in Jesus—the appointed King and Savior. The time is now to bow in allegiance to Christ, embrace His lordship, and experience the blessing reserved for those who put their trust in Him.

    Have you ever wondered what it truly means to live a “blessed” life—especially when your circumstances are anything but easy? In The Blessed Life, Pastor David Menard opens the Psalms with a profound exploration of Psalm 1, setting the tone for the entire series, Seasons in the Psalms. With clarity and pastoral warmth, he draws out timeless truths from Scripture, contrasting the path of the godly and the ungodly, unpacking the poetry and power of biblical Hebrew parallelism, and pointing to Jesus as the centerpiece of every Psalm. Through this lens, he teaches how God’s blessing is not about wealth or comfort, but about delighting in God’s Word, resisting worldly influence, and experiencing deep, unwavering joy no matter the season of life.
     
    Listen in and let this message stir your heart and anchor your soul. Pastor David challenges us to stop faking spiritual language, drop the masks, and come before God honestly—with our frustrations, our doubts, and our brokenness. Discover how the blessed life is not found in chasing momentary pleasures, but in cultivating intimacy with God, who truly knows and preserves His people. This sermon will deepen your understanding of Scripture, renew your passion for God’s presence, and inspire you to live differently—starting today.

    What if your anxiety isn’t just a disorder—but a symptom of something deeper? In Dealing with Anxiety, Part 2, Pastor JC takes us through Philippians 4:4–9 and 1 Kings 19 with rare clarity and conviction, exposing the spiritual roots of worry, fear, and despair. Drawing from the lives of Elijah, Martha, Judas, and more, he shows how anxiety often springs from a lack of faith—not in God’s existence, but in His daily goodness, provision, and control. With both pastoral compassion and biblical boldness, Pastor David walks through the devastating effects of anxiety on joy, hope, and peace, then holds up the gospel as the answer: a deep, abiding relationship with the God of peace.
     
    This message is more than a sermon—it’s a wake-up call. If you’ve ever felt paralyzed by fear, numb from discouragement, or ashamed of your inner turmoil, Dealing with Anxiety, Part 2 will speak directly to your heart. Pastor JC challenges us not to manage our anxiety, but to confront it biblically—through repentance, spiritual nourishment, and obedience to God’s call. With vivid stories, scriptural depth, and practical instruction, he reminds us that peace isn’t found in escape or distraction, but in knowing the One who rules over all. Listen now—and discover how the peace of God can guard your heart and mind today.

In this message titled Dealing with Anxiety (Part 1), Pastor JC Cooper walks through Philippians 4:4–9, revealing God’s powerful remedy for anxious hearts.

Far from abstract or mystical, a Spirit-led life is shown to be intensely practical—marked by agape love, deep community, and selfless restoration.

    What if the key to lasting joy, peace, and purpose wasn’t found in trying harder—but in simply staying grateful? In “The Spirit-Led Life, Part 3,” Pastor David Menard unpacks Galatians 5:16–26 to show that the Spirit-led life isn’t about hype, perfection, or religious performance. It’s about walking daily with Jesus—abiding in His love, depending on His grace, and staying anchored in gratitude. Through powerful contrasts between the works of the flesh and the fruit of the Spirit, Pastor David explains how the Spirit transforms us from the inside out when we stay mindful of all God has done.
     
    This message will challenge you to rethink what it truly means to follow Jesus. You’ll be encouraged to fight temptation, endure hardship, and love others—not through willpower, but through worship. If you’re tired of fake religion and want something real, listen in and rediscover the joy of walking in step with the Holy Spirit. Gratitude isn’t a side note—it’s the fuel for a transformed life.

    What do you do when everything in life seems good on the outside, but your soul still feels empty? In Experiencing the Spirit-Led Life, Part 2, Pastor David Menard invites us into Galatians 5:16–26 to explore the profound difference between living by the flesh and walking by the Spirit. With clarity and passion, he explains how our flesh—though constantly craving satisfaction—can never produce lasting peace or joy. Only the Holy Spirit can guide us into a life of true abundance, marked by love, joy, peace, patience, and self-control. This message peels back the layers of religious performance and reveals the Spirit-led life as a daily, empowering relationship with Jesus.
     
    Listen in and discover how this teaching can reshape the way you think about spiritual growth and personal freedom. Pastor David emphasizes that the fruit of the Spirit isn’t achieved by trying harder—but by surrendering more deeply to Jesus’ mercy and grace. You’ll be encouraged, challenged, and reminded that every believer is in a battle between the flesh and the Spirit—but it’s in that struggle that we grow. Don’t miss this powerful reminder that the most rewarding life isn’t earned—it’s walked out, step by step, with the Spirit of God.

    Do you feel like your life is being controlled by your desires instead of led by purpose? In The Spirit-Led Life, Part 1, Pastor David Menard unpacks Galatians 5:16–26 and offers a powerful look into what it truly means to walk in the Spirit. With clarity and conviction, he contrasts the devastating results of being ruled by the flesh—things like envy, addiction, lust, and strife—with the beautiful fruit that comes from a life guided by the Holy Spirit: love, joy, peace, and purpose. This message isn’t just theology—it’s a call to freedom from futile striving, religious performance, and spiritual emptiness.
     
    Listen in and discover how this teaching can transform your everyday decisions and relationships. Pastor David reminds us that the Spirit-led life isn’t reserved for the ultra-spiritual or earned through flawless behavior—it’s for anyone willing to walk by faith, even in their failure. The challenge is clear: will you remain a slave to your own appetites, or will you choose the abundant, Spirit-led life Jesus died to give you? Don’t settle for religion. Choose a life of power, fruit, and intimacy with God. The time to step into it is now.

    What if sharing your faith wasn’t a burden but an adventure? Something exhilarating that God invites every believer to experience? In “Embracing the Great Commission” by Pastor JC Cooper, discover how Jesus’ words in Matthew 28:16-20 call all His followers—not just pastors or missionaries—to make disciples. Pastor JC unpacks the moment when Jesus appeared to over 500 believers after His resurrection, commissioning them with His authority and promising His presence. This message will reframe how you see your role in God’s mission, showing that disciple-making is less about having all the answers and more about following Jesus into the work He’s already doing.
     
    Take a moment to listen—you’ll be encouraged and challenged to live with greater purpose. Whether at work, in your neighborhood, or at the coffee shop, you’ll learn practical ways to meet people where they are, share the gospel, and teach God’s Word.

From Mary’s extravagant act of worship to Jesus’ triumphal entry on a donkey, the message invites us to behold the majesty, humility, and purpose of our King.

    Are you tired of watching the world grow darker and wondering why real revival seems so far away? In Why Revival Tarries, Pastor Jason Duff walks us through 1 Kings 18:20–39, where Elijah confronts the people of Israel on Mount Carmel with a bold question: “How long will you falter between two opinions?” With passion and clarity, Pastor Jason unpacks the five elements every revival in history has shared—and shows how they appear in this dramatic showdown between Elijah and the prophets of Baal. From rebuilding broken altars to seeking God’s glory above our own, the message brings Scripture to life and calls us back to wholehearted devotion.
     
    This is more than a powerful Bible story—it’s a personal invitation to renewal. Pastor Jason challenges us to stop wavering between God and the world, and instead surrender fully to the One true God who answers by fire. If your walk with Jesus has felt dry, or you long to see transformation in your family, church, or nation, this message will reignite your faith. Don’t miss what God might want to do—starting with you. Revival begins when we draw a circle around ourselves and ask God to set everything inside it on fire.

    Have you ever found yourself trapped in cycles of striving—always trying harder, yet never feeling truly free? In this powerful message, “Standing Firm in the Freedom Jesus Gives Me,” Pastor David Menard opens Galatians 5:1-18 to reveal the liberating truth that true freedom is found only in Jesus Christ. He passionately explores how Jesus frees us not just from sin and failure, but also from the exhausting treadmill of performance-based religion. Drawing from the story of Abraham and Sarah, Pastor David vividly demonstrates the contrast between living by our own efforts and embracing the promise of God’s grace.
     
    You’re invited to dive into this message and discover how to practically experience the freedom that Christ has already secured for you. If you’re tired of feeling defeated or burdened by your inability to measure up, this teaching offers a profound encouragement: Jesus’ freedom is personal, transformative, and available now. Don’t let another day pass without understanding and standing firm in the freedom only Jesus can provide—listen today and step into the abundant, purposeful life God desires for you.

    Have you ever found yourself trying to earn God's favor, feeling like your worth is tied to how well you follow the rules? In his message, "Freedom in Jesus: Divine Grace vs. Legalism," Pastor JC Cooper unpacks Galatians 4:8-31, where the Apostle Paul pleads with the Galatian believers not to turn back to the bondage of the law. Through a powerful illustration from the Old Testament—the contrast between Ishmael, the son of slavery, and Isaac, the son of promise—Paul reminds us that we are saved by grace alone, not by our own efforts. Pastor JC brings this truth to life, revealing how legalism creeps into our walk with Christ and how only God's grace leads to true freedom.
     
    This message is an invitation to step out of the exhausting cycle of performance-based faith and into the liberating grace of Jesus. Pastor JC challenges us to examine our hearts: Are we living as children of promise, resting in God's love, or are we striving to earn His approval? This teaching will encourage, convict, and realign your heart with the gospel’s central truth—salvation is a gift, not a transaction. Don’t miss this opportunity to be refreshed and renewed in the freedom that Christ has secured for you!

    Are you living like an heir of God’s kingdom, or just a hired worker trying to get by? Too many believers go through life unsure of the richness of their inheritance in Christ—living under rules and striving for approval rather than embracing the incredible freedom of being God’s child. In “Our Rich Inheritance in Jesus Christ,” Pastor David Menard unpacks Galatians 3:26-4:7, revealing that in God’s kingdom, there are no employees—only sons and daughters who are full heirs of His promises. With clarity and depth, he explains how faith in Jesus brings us into a family where we are not just accepted but adopted with full rights as God’s children. This message will challenge the way you see yourself in Christ and help you grasp the life-changing truth of your spiritual inheritance.
     
    Don’t miss this powerful teaching that will transform your faith! As Pastor David walks through this passage, he highlights how the law was never meant to make us righteous but to point us to Jesus, who fulfilled it perfectly on our behalf. If you’ve ever struggled with guilt, performance-based faith, or feeling like you don’t measure up, this message will encourage and equip you. The truth is, in Christ, you are no longer a slave to sin or striving—you are a beloved child of God with an eternal inheritance. Listen in and discover the freedom, security, and joy that come with knowing who you truly are in Him!

    Do you feel like your relationship with God is a never-ending roller coaster of trying to be “good enough”? One day, you feel confident in your faith, and the next, you’re weighed down by guilt and failure. In The Problem with God’s Law & The Power of God’s Promise, Pastor David Menard unpacks Galatians 3:10-29, revealing how the churches in Galatia had fallen into the same trap that many believers struggle with today—trying to earn righteousness through performance-based religion. But Paul’s message is clear: no one can be justified by the law. Instead, true freedom comes from embracing the promise of salvation through faith in Jesus Christ.
     
    This powerful teaching will challenge the way you think about your relationship with God. Are you striving to earn His love, or are you resting in the gift of His grace? As you listen, you’ll be reminded that righteousness has always been a gift—one that cannot be earned but is freely given through Christ. Whether you’ve been caught in the exhausting cycle of legalism or simply need a renewed sense of God’s grace, this message will encourage you to let go of self-reliance and step into the joy and security of faith in Jesus. Don’t miss this opportunity to experience the true freedom that comes from trusting in God’s promise!

In this week’s message, titled How to Live a Spirit-Led Life, Pastor David Menard takes us through Galatians 3:1-14, revealing the biblical blueprint for being led by the Holy Spirit. He challenges us to move beyond misconceptions and embrace the reality that the Holy Spirit is not just a force but a person—one who guides, empowers, and transforms our hearts from the inside out. Through a compelling exposition of Scripture, we see that the Spirit-led life is not about striving to be good but about walking in relationship with Jesus, surrendering our will, and stepping out in faith.
     
    If you’ve ever felt stuck in the cycle of trying harder, yet falling short, this message is for you. Pastor David unpacks how the battle between the flesh and the Spirit is one we cannot win on our own—but by relying on the Holy Spirit, we are set free from sin’s control and empowered to live with love, joy, and peace. This message is an invitation to stop striving and start trusting, to experience the freedom of a life fully surrendered to God.

    Has the gospel you believe in been distorted? In a world where truth is constantly challenged and redefined, how can we be sure we are standing firm in the true gospel of Jesus Christ? In his message, The Gospel Under Attack, Pastor David Menard unpacks the powerful truths of Galatians 1 and 2, revealing how the early church faced—and defended against—attempts to distort the message of salvation by grace alone through faith alone. Through Paul’s bold defense at the Jerusalem Council, we see that the gospel is not just a theological concept but a life-altering truth that sets us free from the bondage of legalism and self-righteousness.
     
    This message is a call to examine our own hearts—are we resting in the finished work of Christ, or are we subtly adding our own efforts to salvation? As Pastor David unfolds these passages, you’ll be challenged to embrace the true gospel with renewed confidence and clarity. Whether you’ve wrestled with doubt, struggled with guilt, or simply want to deepen your understanding of God’s grace, this teaching will equip you to stand firm in the faith.

    Have you ever felt stuck, wondering what God is doing? In Jesus Builds An Apostle, Pastor David Menard reveals how God refines and prepares us, just as He did with Paul in Galatians 1:11-24. Before stepping into his calling, Paul spent three years in Arabia, learning directly from Jesus. Like a jeweler refining gold, God removes impurities from our lives so His image can be seen in us.
     
    Come and listen as Pastor David unpacks how God builds us in the silent seasons, shaping our hearts before sending us out. Paul’s story reminds us that God’s timing is perfect, His refining is necessary, and He is always at work, even when we can’t see it.

    How can we abandon self-reliance and embrace the peace that comes from living in God’s grace? In Salvation by Grace Alone from Galatians 1:3-5, Pastor David Menard reveals the heart of the gospel: salvation is entirely a gift of God’s grace. Paul’s words remind us that Jesus has delivered us from this present evil age, and it’s not through our works but through His finished work on the cross. With clear biblical teaching and relatable illustrations, Pastor David explains the dangers of adding human effort to Christ’s gift and the freedom found in resting fully in God’s unmerited favor.
     
    This message challenges us to confront performance-based faith and instead trust in the security of God’s grace. Whether struggling with personal failure, striving for approval, or trying to earn righteousness, we are reminded of the transformative power of grace in every area of life. Pastor David also encourages us to live out this truth practically by discipling others, leaning on God’s love as we navigate life’s challenges, and finding joy in walking with Christ daily. Discover the peace and perseverance that come when you stop striving and start resting in grace.

    Since God needs nothing from us, what gift could we possibly offer Him? In the final message of The Gifts of Christmas series, titled The Gift of Worship, Pastor JC Cooper invites us to explore this profound question. Drawing from Matthew 2:1-12, we journey with the wise men, whose sacrificial worship reflects the heart of true devotion. They traveled far, bringing gifts of immense value, not out of obligation, but as an act of heartfelt surrender. Their journey reminds us that worship is more than a moment; it is a lifestyle of giving our best to God. Through their story, we see that true worship calls us to recognize God’s worth and respond in ways that transform our priorities.
     
    Similarly, we are invited to offer ourselves fully to God as an act of worship. Rather than confining worship to Sunday mornings, we must embrace it as a daily response to His goodness, rooted in obedience and gratitude. This includes our time, resources, and the way we live out our faith in every aspect of life. When we give to God from the best of what we have, our worship deepens and our lives are enriched with purpose and joy. Ultimately, this message challenges us to see worship not as a duty, but as a privilege that brings us closer to the heart of God. How is He calling you to worship Him today?

    Is it possible that God's plans are greater than anything we could imagine, even when they disrupt our own plans? In this message, Pastor JC Cooper explores Matthew 1:18-25, where we witness God’s extraordinary plan to bring Jesus into the world. This divine intervention turned Joseph and Mary’s lives upside down, reminding us that God’s purpose often challenges our expectations, yet always leads to something far more meaningful than we could ever design ourselves.
     
    For Joseph, this meant navigating the weight of uncertainty and risking his reputation to obey God’s call. His choice to trust and step into the unknown ultimately aligned him with an extraordinary purpose. Like Joseph, when we surrender our fears and trust God’s leading, our lives can be transformed into a story of divine grace and purpose that goes beyond our imagination.

    What can an ancient genealogy teach us about God’s extraordinary love for humanity? This week, we continue The Gifts of Christmas series with the message The Gift of Grace, taught by Pastor JC Cooper. In Matthew 1:1-17, the lineage of Jesus Christ reveals more than history—it showcases God’s boundless grace. The stories of Abraham, Rahab, David, and Tamar highlight how God works through broken, sinful people to fulfill His promises. These names remind us that grace is not earned; it is freely given.
     
    Furthermore, the genealogy emphasizes God’s unchanging faithfulness. It reassures us that no sin or failure can separate us from His love. Through the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus, we see the ultimate fulfillment of God’s promise of salvation. As we reflect on this truth during the Christmas season, let us embrace the gift of grace that transforms and restores us.

    This week, we kick off our Christmas series, The Gifts of Christmas, with the first message titled The Gift of Hope, taught by Pastor JC Cooper. Genesis 3 reveals the first glimmer of God’s redemption plan in response to the fall of Adam and Eve. Despite the deception of Satan, the rebellion of Adam, and the curse of sin and death, God introduces hope—a promise that one day the offspring of the woman will crush the serpent's head. This hope points directly to the coming of Jesus Christ, who was born to rescue us from sin.
     
    As Pastor JC teaches from Genesis 3:1–15, we see God’s relentless love in action. He pursues sinners, offers redemption, and sets His rescue plan into motion through the promise of a Savior. This message sheds light on why the birth of Jesus is so much more than a sentimental tradition; it is the fulfillment of God’s promise to bring salvation. The hope of Christmas, rooted in the gospel, gives us confidence that God’s promises are true—He has come, and He will come again.

    Do you feel like the world around you has lost its way? In this inspiring sermon titled "God's Sovereignty Over the Nations," Pastor David Menard shows how Daniel's experience in Babylon mirrors our own today. Even though Daniel lived in a culture that turned away from God, he stayed faithful and chose not to let his surroundings influence him. Pastor David urges us to do the same, reminding us that God's plans are much bigger than ours. As Daniel prayed and fasted, he discovered God's control over future nations and events. This teaches us that when we truly seek God, He reveals Himself to us.
     
    Moreover, Pastor David explains how God strengthens us even when we don't deserve it. Like Daniel, we often feel God's love and power but struggle with selfish tendencies. However, God's kindness leads us to change and grow. By focusing on Jesus, renewing our minds with His Word, and deciding to live for Him, we can shine brightly in a troubled world. So, be encouraged to trust in God's control, embrace His strength, and let your life show His glory.
