  1. 1 Kings 5-6 | Building with the Best

    1 Kings 5-6 | Building with the Best

    In this sermon on 1 Kings 5 and 6, Pastor Gerrit walks through Solomon's preparation and construction of the temple in Jerusalem. In this sermon on 1 Kings 5 and 6, Pastor Gerrit walks through Solomon's preparation and construction of the temple in Jerusalem. Solomon pursued the best materials and craftsmen not to impress anyone, but because he genuinely wanted to honor God with excellence. The passage raises a quiet but searching question: when we work for God, do we bring our best, or just enough to get by? God's promise to dwell among his people was conditional on obedience, a reminder that he's ultimately after our hearts, not our activity. In Christ, that temple is no longer a building but a people being shaped and fitted together as a dwelling place for God's Spirit.

  2. Luke 9:37-46 | Three Lessons for Dense Disciples

    6d ago

    Luke 9:37-46 | Three Lessons for Dense Disciples

    Pastor Gerrit walks through Luke 9:37-48, exploring what it looks like to follow Jesus not just in moments of spiritual highs, but in the ordinary and often messy work of loving people. Three lessons emerge from the story: disciples are called off the mountain and into ministry, real power for that ministry comes through faith and prayer rather than self-reliance, and true greatness in God's kingdom looks like humility and service rather than status. The father who brings his demon-possessed son to Jesus becomes a picture of persistent, honest faith, even when that faith feels shaky.

  3. 1 Kings 4 | Greater Than Solomon

    May 28

    1 Kings 4 | Greater Than Solomon

    In this message from 1 Kings 4, Pastor Paul walks through Solomon's reign at its peak and the theme that a greater King than Solomon has already come. Even Solomon's remarkable wisdom and glory pointed forward to something it could never fully be. Scripture presents Solomon as a living foreshadowing of Christ, and Jesus himself made that connection explicit when he told the Pharisees that something greater than Solomon was standing right in front of them. The peace Solomon's name promises finds its true fulfillment in Jesus, the Prince of Peace whose kingdom has no end.

  4. Luke 9:27-36 | A Glimpse of Glory

    May 24

    Luke 9:27-36 | A Glimpse of Glory

    In Luke 9:27–36, Pastor Kevin walks through the Transfiguration, where Jesus takes Peter, James, and John up a mountain and is revealed in radiant, blinding glory. Moses and Elijah appear alongside him, representing the law and the prophets, and their conversation centers on Jesus' coming death in Jerusalem. The Father's voice from the cloud interrupts Peter's impulse to build three tabernacles with a simple command: this is my beloved Son, hear him.

  5. 1 Kings 3 | An Understanding Heart for Solomon

    May 21

    1 Kings 3 | An Understanding Heart for Solomon

    In this message from 1 Kings 3, Pastor Gerrit walks through the early reign of King Solomon and the famous moment when God invited Solomon to ask for anything he wanted. Rather than requesting wealth or power, Solomon asked for wisdom to lead God's people well, and that humility is what pleased God most. The passage shows that wisdom begins with honestly admitting what we don't know and genuinely caring about the people we serve. God gave Solomon far more than he asked for, which says a lot about who God is and how he responds to a surrendered heart.

  6. Luke 9:1-27 | Who Do You Say I Am?

    May 17

    Luke 9:1-27 | Who Do You Say I Am?

    Pastor Kevin walks through Luke 9 in this message on the identity of Jesus and what it means to follow him. At the center of this passage is the question Jesus asked his disciples: "Who do you say that I am?" Peter's answer, that Jesus is the Christ, cuts through the crowd's speculation and gets to the heart of the gospel. Following that confession, Jesus tells his disciples plainly that he must suffer, be rejected, and be raised on the third day. The passage makes clear that belonging to Jesus means taking up a cross, not gaining the world.

  7. 1 Kings 2 | A Firmly Established Kingdom

    May 14

    1 Kings 2 | A Firmly Established Kingdom

    Pastor Gerrit walks through 1 Kings 2, covering David's final charge to his son Solomon and the steps Solomon takes to establish his kingdom. David's dying words are straightforward: obey God, walk in his ways, and you will prosper. What follows is Solomon navigating a fragile political moment, dealing decisively with those who threatened the stability of what God was building. The chapter returns again and again to one quiet phrase, that the kingdom was established, showing that behind all the human drama, God was faithful to the promise he made to David.

  8. 1 Samuel 1 | For This Child I Prayed (Mother’s Day 2026)

    May 10

    1 Samuel 1 | For This Child I Prayed (Mother’s Day 2026)

    Pastor Gerrit shares a Mother's Day message from 1 Samuel 1, exploring the story of Hannah and what her life reveals about God's faithfulness in ordinary, painful circumstances. Hannah was a woman who wanted children but couldn't have them, mocked by a rival and overlooked by her culture, yet she brought her grief to God in raw, honest prayer rather than giving up or growing bitter. God didn't just answer her request, he shaped her desires, gave her peace before anything changed, and worked through her surrender to accomplish something far bigger than she had imagined. Hannah's story shows that God is drawn to ordinary people in real pain, and that worship isn't a response to getting what you want but a recognition of who God is.
