    Grow In Maturity | Colossians 1 | Discipleshift: From Infancy to Adulthood

    Jesus already sees you as holy and complete — so why does the Christian life still feel like a work in progress? In Colossians 1:28-29, Paul says his goal wasn't to make anyone perfect by their own effort, but to help them become fully mature in Christ — teleios: brought to the goal God intends. That's not the same as having it all figured out. Growth isn't about flawless performance — it's about formation. Through the proclamation of Christ, God is actively at work in His people here in Doral, Miami, Miami Gardens, Hialeah, and across South Florida, shaping how we think, love, and live. Continuing Week 3 of "Discipleshift: From Infancy to Adulthood," Pastor Ben Kuerth unpacks Colossians 1:28-29 to show what real spiritual maturity looks like — not comfort, not knowledge for its own sake, but a readiness to move from receiving ministry to participating in it. If you've settled into spiritual infancy while assuming growth happens automatically, this message is for you. Maturity isn't a destination you arrive at on your own — it's God's ongoing work in you, for the good of others.

    From Infancy to Adulthood | Series: Discipleshift

    Four fishermen were doing what fishermen do — casting nets, mending nets, thinking about the next catch. Then Jesus walked by and said two words that changed everything: "Follow me." In Matthew 4:18-22, Jesus calls Simon Peter, Andrew, James, and John before they understand where this is going, before they feel ready, before they've proven anything. He doesn't wait for a resume — He simply invites them into relationship with Himself. And "immediately" — no hesitation, no negotiation — they leave their nets, their boat, even their father, and follow. That same call still reaches ordinary people here in Doral, Miami, Miami Gardens, Hialeah, and across South Florida today. Continuing the "Discipleshift: From Infancy to Adulthood" series, Pastor Ben Kuerth walks through Matthew 4:18-22 to unpack what it actually means to follow Jesus — not information mastered or boxes checked, but a relationship that changes who you become and where you're sent. If you've ever wanted Jesus on your own terms — convenient, comfortable, only when it's beneficial — this message is for you. A disciple isn't defined by how much they know. A disciple is defined by who they follow. 📖 Primary Scripture: Matthew 4:18-22 📖 Supporting Text: 1 John 2:3-6 | Jeremiah 1:4-10 📅 Series: Discipleshift: From Infancy to Adulthood (Week 2) Support the show Moved to give? http://dschurch.link/givedoral For more info about our church please visit our website: https://divinesaviorchurch.com/dscdor/

    Is God's Mercy Unfair? | Relentless Love

    Is God being too kind? A prophet gets exactly the outcome he prayed for — and it makes him furious. Not because God failed him, but because God showed mercy to people Jonah never wanted forgiven. In the final chapter of Jonah, the story takes an unexpected turn: after Nineveh repents and God relents from judgment, Jonah — the very man who just watched an entire city turn to the Lord — sits down outside the walls and sulks. His real problem was never that God is unjust. It's that God is gracious to people just like the ones we live next to in Doral, Miami, Miami Gardens, Hialeah, and across South Florida — people we might not have chosen to forgive ourselves. In this final message of the "Relentless Love" series, Pastor Caleb Schmiege opens Jonah 4:1-11 to ask the question the whole book has been building toward: are we truly happy that God is gracious and merciful to everyone, or do we want Him to only favor people like us? If God's compassion has ever felt unfair to you — because of who it included — this message is for you. His love was never meant to have a border, a list, or an exception clause. It reaches everyone. It reaches you. 📖 Primary Scripture: Jonah 4:1-11 📖 Supporting Text: Exodus 34:1-9 | Matthew 20:1-16 | Luke 15:11-32 📅 Series: Relentless Love (Finale) 📆 Date: July 26, 2026 | Pentecost Season 🎤 Speaker: Pastor Ben Kuerth Support the show Moved to give? http://dschurch.link/givedoral For more info about our church please visit our website: https://divinesaviorchurch.com/dscdor/

    No One Is Too Far Gone | Relentless Love in the Story of Jonah

    Is anyone ever too far gone for God? A runaway prophet. A violent, pagan city. By every human measure, both were lost causes. God disagreed. In Jonah 3, the word of the Lord comes to Jonah "a second time." God is a specialist in second chances — not just for Jonah, but for everyone. He recommissions His reluctant, flawed messenger and sends him into Nineveh, a city that seemed beyond saving. And when God's Word goes out, it does not return empty: the entire city — from the king down — turns to the Lord. In this third message from the "Relentless Love" series, Pastor Ben Kuerth opens Jonah 3:1-10 to show us a God who seeks the lost — a God whose mercy has no borders, who uses imperfect people to carry His perfect Word, and whose message of hope reaches into the most unlikely places. If God can restore a runaway prophet and rescue Nineveh, He can reach the person you've been praying for. He can reach you. 📖 Primary Scripture: Jonah 3:1-10 📖 Supporting Text: Isaiah 55:6-11 | Luke 11:29-32 Support the show Moved to give? http://dschurch.link/givedoral For more info about our church please visit our website: https://divinesaviorchurch.com/dscdor/

    God Meets You at Rock Bottom | Relentless Love

    When you hit rock bottom, it can feel like God has abandoned you. But what if the end of your rope is actually the beginning of His rescue? From the belly of a fish — the lowest, darkest place imaginable — Jonah prayed. And he discovered something surprising: what first looked like a prison was actually a place of protection, a space where he could finally let go of his pride and confess, "Salvation is from the Lord." In this second message from the "Relentless Love" series, Pastor Caleb Schmiege opens Jonah 2:1-10 to show us a God who is near — not distant — in our lowest moments. A God who meets us in the depths, not to punish us, but to bring us back up and give us a second chance. And Jonah's three days in the deep point us to an even greater rescue: the One who spent three days in the earth so that we could all be raised to new life. Wherever the depths find you today — despair, regret, or your own running — God is closer than you think. 📖 Primary Scripture: Jonah 2:1-10 📖 Supporting Text: Psalm 130 | Matthew 12:38-41 📅 Series: Relentless Love 📆 Date: July 12, 2026 | Pentecost Season 🎤 Speaker: Pastor Caleb Schmiege 👍 If this message encouraged you, LIKE this video and SHARE it with someone who needs to hear it today! 🔔 SUBSCRIBE so you never miss a message from Divine Savior Church Doral. 💬 Drop a comment below — we'd love to hear how God is speaking to you!

    You Can't Outrun God | Relentless Love in the Story of Jonah

    Ever feel like you could just sail away from your problems — or from God Himself? Jonah didn't just turn down a job assignment. He tried to put an ocean between himself and the very Source of his life, running from a calling that didn't fit his comfort or his prejudice. In this first message from the "Relentless Love" series, Pastor Ben Kuerth opens Jonah 1:1-17 to show us a God who is far too loving to let us go — even when we run. Sometimes He allows a "storm" in our lives, not to punish us, but to rescue us from ourselves and bring us back to His mercy. Because here's the truth Jonah discovered the hard way: you cannot outrun a God who is everywhere, and you cannot outlast a love that will not quit. Wherever you're running today — from a calling, a conviction, or a community — His relentless love is already in the boat with you. 📖 Primary Scripture: Jonah 1:1-17 📖 Supporting Text: Psalm 139:1-12 | Romans 3:9-20 📅 Series: Relentless Love Support the show Moved to give? http://dschurch.link/givedoral For more info about our church please visit our website: https://divinesaviorchurch.com/dscdor/

    Bearing Real Confidence | God's Perfect Love Drives Out Fear

    What do you do when life makes you doubt God's love? Suffering. Injustice. Personal pain. These things can shake even the most faithful believer. If God is love — why does it feel this way? In this message from the "Branches" series, Pastor Ben Kuerth opens 1 John 4:13-21 to show us that God's love is not a sentiment — it is action. Demonstrated supremely in the sending of His Son, Jesus Christ, to be the Savior of the world. And here's the power of that truth: perfect love drives out fear. The fear of judgment. The fear of not being enough. The fear that God has given up on you. All of it — cast out by the love of a God who proved His love at the cross. Because of Jesus, you can stand before God with real, unshakeable confidence. Not because you love perfectly, but because He does. And when that love fills you, it overflows into how you love others — becoming a living testimony of His grace, leading those around you from fear into faith.  📖 Primary Scripture: 1 John 4:13-21  📖 Supporting Text: John 15:14-17 | Deuteronomy 6:4-13 | Ezekiel 36:24-28 Support the show Moved to give? http://dschurch.link/givedoral For more info about our church please visit our website: https://divinesaviorchurch.com/dscdor/
