Vox Church - Lead Pastor Justin Kendrick

Jesus often used parables—short stories with deeper spiritual meanings—to convey truths about the Kingdom of God. In the Parable of the Rich Man and the Beggar, Jesus shares a story about two men with different lives and what happens after they die. One is wealthy and lives luxuriously, while the other, named Lazarus, suffers daily. Surprisingly, after death, Lazarus goes to heaven, but the rich man goes to hell. This shocks people who thought wealth meant God's approval.Jesus teaches that what comes after death isn't about being good or rich; it's about believing in Him. Heaven isn't earned by actions but received through trust in Jesus. The rich man's issue wasn't wealth but prioritizing it over God. Jesus warns against placing anything above God. The good news is Jesus offers hope to everyone. Trusting in him guarantees a place in heaven. Making Jesus the center of our lives is the wisest decision we can make.

Often in life it seems that God is moving slower then we expect. Why does it sometimes feel like God is late? How can we trust him in these moments? What can we learn? 

Psalm 103 is a different type of prayer. Rather than making requests, the psalmist spends the prayer talking to his own soul. Why is this important? What does it mean to preach to yourself?

Psalm 98 tells us to praise the Lord. Why does the Bible consistently command us to praise? Why does the psalmist celebrate the arrival of the judge?

Throughout the Psalms we see a template for prayer that often doesn’t come naturally. We often pray buttoned up prayers to God. We see the Psalmists pray open and honest prayers. How do we learn to be vulnerable with God in prayer?

The Psalms serve as a prayer pattern for the people of God. Many people read the psalms, but have you learned to pray the psalms? Psalm 1 serves as an introduction to show us how.

Singleness is often not spoken of in the church. What does God have to say about singleness? How should married and single people serve one another and walk with one another?

Marriage requires that we constantly learn. How is God's vision for marriage different from our culture? What can we learn?

Join us for Week 2 of a series we're calling, "Knots".

Friendship is an essential part of life but today we seem to have fewer close friends than ever. How do followers of Jesus develop intentional friendships? What makes these relationships unique?

Join us for Easter at Vox.

So often, God does things differently than we'd expect. This Palm Sunday, we reflect on how God has kept His promises throughout history, and continues to today. But what do we do while we're waiting for the promise?

There are many views of human sexuality and the Bible presents a view of sex that is unique and compelling. How should followers of Christ think and act in the area of sex?

Nothing divides people like politics. But how should followers of Jesus respond to the political turmoil in our world?

The theme of justice has defined society for generations. What does it mean to be just? How does God define justice and how does the church become a community that is both diverse and unified?

In this first week of the series “Altogether Separate”, Pastor Shawn Haggerty's sermon  "Full" explores the impact of technology on our relationship with God and others using Colossians 2:6-10

Being on a great team is exciting, but teams can move beyond the natural and into the supernatural. Throughout the Bible, God reveals that he works through team.

To live with a fervor and passion for God means that we catch a glimpse of the love of Christ. How does the cross change us? How does the truth of God's love reshape our lives?

Vox Church Global Missions Weekend A special message from Paco & Elise Valdivia of Seedtime and Harvest Ministries in San Pedro, Mexico - one of Vox's global partners through Advancing Native Missions.

The principle of sowing and reaping has application for many areas of life, but it teaches us something important about spiritual passion. How do we live with a consistent passion for God? The choices you make, make you.
