    ’El ‘Olām: the Eternal God

    In this message, Pastor Dan continues the Names of God series by teaching on El Olam, meaning The Everlasting God. Through Abraham digging a well, planting a tamarisk tree, and calling on the name of the eternal God, we are reminded that faith is not just about what God does in our lifetime — it is about what God carries through generations. When we trust El Olam, we can plant seeds we may never see fully grown, serve faithfully when no one notices, and pass on a faith that outlives us. Pastor Dan also connects El Olam to the Ancient of Days and Jesus as the Alpha and Omega, reminding us that God is sovereign over time, kingdoms, outcomes, and eternity. This sermon is a call to stop obsessing over immediate results and start living faithfully before the everlasting God — trusting His plan, His rule, and His outcome.

  2. El Elyon: What Has the Highest Place in Your Life?

    El Elyon: What Has the Highest Place in Your Life?

    In this message, Pastor Dan continues the Names of God series by teaching on El Elyon, meaning God Most High. El Elyon is above all, over all, and yet near enough to cover those who draw close to Him. Through Psalm 91, the story of Jesus calming the storm, David crying out from the cave, Abram’s encounter with Melchizedek, and the lordship of Jesus, this sermon challenges us to ask a simple but life-changing question: what has the highest place in my life? Fear, money, control, comfort, sin, politics, people’s opinions, and past pain can all try to become “most high.” But only God deserves the final word. When we surrender to El Elyon, we do not have to live exposed to fear, shame, sin, or the enemy’s strongholds. We can live under the shadow of the Almighty, trusting that no storm, no enemy, no failure, no diagnosis, and no past is higher than Him.

  3. Adonai: Is Jesus Really Lord of Your Life?

    Adonai: Is Jesus Really Lord of Your Life?

    In this message, Chris Rand continues the Names of God series by teaching on Adonai, meaning Lord, Master, Owner, and Ruler. Through the lives of Abram and Moses, we are reminded that God is sovereign over our story, His call does not depend on our credentials, and following Jesus means surrendering every part of our lives under His lordship. When Abram had questions, Adonai met him with patience and covenant faithfulness. When Moses felt unqualified, Adonai reminded him that the call depends on God’s power, not human ability. And when Jesus calls us to follow Him, He invites us to lay down our lives, trust His authority, and step into obedience. This sermon is a call to stop strong-arming life, surrender to Jesus, and trust that the One who holds everything in His hand is faithful to lead us.

    El Shaddai: The Almighty God

    What do you do when the dream God gave you feels too big, your strength feels too small, and the promise seems impossible? In this message, Pastor Dan teaches on the name El Shaddai, which means God Almighty — the all-sufficient, all-powerful God who meets us in our weakness and reminds us that He is more than enough. Through the story of Abraham, Sarah, Isaac, and Jacob, we see that God is faithful across generations. When Abraham was too old, Sarah was barren, and the promise looked impossible, God revealed Himself as El Shaddai. The same God still restores identity, renews calling, supplies strength, and makes fruitful what we could never produce on our own. This sermon is a reminder to stop trying to be your own source and return fully to Jesus. You cannot overcome sin, fulfill your calling, or walk in God’s purpose by your own strength — but when you draw near to El Shaddai, you find that He is enough for your weakness, your past, your shame, your future, and your salvation.
