The Revelation of Waiting | What the Golden Calf Reveals In Our Hearts

The Golden Calf | Exodus 32
What do we do when God feels silent, the waiting feels long, and fear starts telling us a different story?
In this message from Exodus 32, we look at the story of the golden calf and the deeper warning underneath it. Israel had been rescued from Egypt, carried through the Red Sea, fed with manna, given water from the rock, and invited near at Mount Sinai. God had been faithful. But when Moses delayed, the people defaulted to what was familiar — something visible, manageable, and controllable.
This message explores how crisis does not usually create our idols; it reveals where our hearts have already been trained to run. From fear and control to comfort, success, image. We explore the truth that even good desires can be put in the wrong order and we are invited to let Jesus search our hearts and reshape our loves.
The good news is that God does not abandon His people in the wilderness. The remedy is always Jesus — the true Passover Lamb, the greater Mediator, and the One who carries us when the idols we carry cannot save us.
Key Scriptures: Exodus 32:1–8, Psalm 139:23–24, Philippians 3:7–21.

The Power of Presence | Exodus

The Gift of Giving | Exodus

The 10 Commandments | Exodus

Law of Love | Exodus 19

When you hear the word commandments, what do you think of?
For a lot of us, it feels like rules and restriction. But what if that’s not the full picture?
In this message, we walk through Exodus 19 and see a God who pursues, rescues, and invites His people into relationship before ever asking anything of them.
This isn’t just about rules—it’s about a love that goes first.
A love that leads.
A love that invites us into something better.

Hidden In Christ | An Easter Message

What are you really searching for?
This Easter message explores the journey we’re all on—from hiding to seeking, and ultimately being found. From the garden to the cross to the empty tomb, Scripture reveals that what we’re looking for isn’t found in what we chase, but in who we come to.
In Christ are hidden all the treasures of wisdom, life, and freedom—and through His death and resurrection, what was once hidden is now revealed.
Jesus didn’t just perform miracles—He came to rescue, redeem, and restore.
If you’ve been searching for hope, peace, or purpose, this message is an invitation to discover that what you’ve been looking for has been found for you in Him.

No Donkey. No Problem | Palm Sunday Message

What do you do when God calls you forward—but you don’t yet see the provision?
On Palm Sunday, Jesus sends His disciples to find a colt He didn’t have… and trusts it will be there when they arrive. In this message, we explore what it means to walk in that same kind of faith—trusting that God’s provision is often waiting on the other side of obedience.
From the humble, burden-bearing King to the powerful moment where Jesus weeps over Jerusalem, this sermon invites us to move beyond celebration into deeper trust, surrender, and reverence.
What if what you need… is already waiting where God is leading?

"Now I know" | Exodus

What happens when faith moves from something you’ve heard… to something you truly know?
In this final message from our Wilderness series, we explore the powerful moment when Moses shares his story and Jethro responds, “Now I know.” From testimony to revelation, and from revelation to response, we see a clear pattern that still shapes our lives today.
This message unpacks:
The power of your personal testimony
Why revelation always calls for a response
The biblical call to baptism
And the identity God speaks over His people—chosen, royal, and set apart
You were not just saved from something…you were brought into something—identity, purpose, and mission.

A Little Help From My Friends | Exodus

Right after God provides water from the rock, Israel faces an unexpected attack in the wilderness. In this sermon we explore the powerful story of Moses, Aaron, Hur, and Joshua during the battle with the Amalekites in Exodus 17, and the leadership wisdom Jethro gives Moses in Exodus 18.
This passage reveals important lessons about spiritual warfare, leadership, and the role of community in the life of God’s people.
In this message we explore:
• Why the enemy targets the weak and vulnerable• The importance of leaders who are known and tested in community• The role of intercession and spiritual covering in spiritual battles• How God protects His people through shared leadership• How Moses lifting the staff points forward to Jesus lifted on the cross
As Moses stands on the hill with his hands raised while Joshua fights in the valley, we see a powerful picture of how God’s people fight battles together.
And ultimately, this moment in the wilderness points forward to another hill—where Jesus was lifted up to win the war against sin and death.
Moses stood on a hill to win a battle.Jesus climbed a hill to win the war.
