Who are you serving? In this sermon, Mark unpacks the first commandment, revealing how modern idols promise freedom but only enslave—while Christ alone offers true life and lasting freedom.

What if God’s commands aren’t just rules, but the path to true freedom? Kicking off a new series, Mark shows how the Ten Commandments reveal God’s heart for his people and lead us to a life of love and flourishing.

Revival can turn into ruin faster than you think. In this sermon, Simeon warns how quickly obedience can give way to destruction, yet points us to the greater hope of restoration found only in Jesus.

Before God plants new life, he burns away what's dead. In our generation, attention to his word is fading fast. As we look at King Josiah's story of repentance and lifelong obedience, what might God be asking you to burn away so his renewal can take root in your life?

The kings of Judah were leaders torn between faithfulness and failure. Some showed courage. Others collapsed under pride, fear, or compromise. In this series, we explore their stories to uncover real lessons for today and see how every flawed ruler points us to the one true King we need.

The Church grows through ordinary people who become laborers in everyday life. In Antioch, we see how God began using everyday believers to spread the gospel and plant churches. God uses ordinary people to do extraordinary things, and he wants to use you.

Identity politics isn’t just shaping opinions, it's fueling a cultural shift to anger. In this message, Mark unpacks how political tribes manipulate identity to divide and distract, and why only a gospel-rooted identity can resist the current.

In a culture defined by anxiety, you won’t drift into truth. As believers, we are called to resist the current by rejecting conformity and rooting ourselves deeply in Scripture and truth. In this sermon, Mark unpacks the cultural forces shaping us—and how we are called to live differently.

What if your doubts aren’t a dead end—but an open door? This Easter, we looked at the story of “Doubting Thomas”—the disciple who didn’t walk away in denial, but struggled to believe until he saw Jesus’ scars. His story reminds us that Jesus meets us in our doubts and invites us to trust him, because the resurrection changes everything.
