    Formed in His Presence // Formed Pt. 3 // Luke Humbrecht

    What does it look like to live with peace and presence in a world that never stops demanding our attention? In Luke 10, Martha welcomes Jesus into her home and serves Him faithfully, but anxiety begins pulling her in every direction. Mary, meanwhile, sits at Jesus’ feet and listens. Jesus isn’t condemning Martha’s work. He’s inviting her to recognize what’s happening inside her—and to remember that His presence matters more than the pressure to keep up. This message explores what it means to abide in Christ and build a life rooted in His presence rather than anxiety. Through Scripture, the example of Jesus, and practical rhythms of prayer, time in God’s Word, and Sabbath rest, we’ll discover how to return our attention to God in the middle of everyday life. Because peace isn’t found in finally getting everything done. It’s found in learning to live with Jesus, where doing flows from being.

    How God Transforms Us // Formed Pt. 2 // Luke Humbrecht

    Are you tired of trying to change and feeling like nothing is actually sticking? You are not alone. Most of us carry an unexamined theory of how transformation works, but the Bible offers a better way. Rooted in 2 Corinthians 3:18 and Isaiah 64:8, this teaching explores how God transforms us from the inside out. We become what we behold, and God, the potter, is actively shaping us into the image of Christ. Three key elements drive genuine spiritual transformation: **paradigms, practices, and people.** Our paradigms—the deep stories and beliefs we live by—must be renewed by truth. Our practices create space for the Holy Spirit to reshape our habits and desires. And our relationships provide the community where love, patience, forgiveness, and generosity are actually developed. Transformation is not a self-improvement project, and following Jesus was never meant to happen in isolation. Whether you are new to faith or have followed Jesus for years, this teaching offers a practical, biblically grounded framework for understanding how God is changing you—and why lasting change can be so difficult.

    You Are Always Becoming // Formed Pt. 1 // Luke Humbrecht

    Are you being shaped by the love of God or by the world around you? Most people never stop to ask that question, but the answer is forming them every single day. Romans 12:1-2 calls us not to be conformed to this world but to be transformed by the renewal of our minds. The Greek words behind both conformed and transformed describe ongoing processes, not one-time events. You are always being formed by something. The real question is what. In this message, we explore what the Bible teaches about spiritual transformation, spiritual formation, and what it means to be intentionally shaped by God rather than passively shaped by culture. Topics covered include:     What Romans 12:1-2 actually means for everyday life     The difference between transformation and deformation     Three hidden forces quietly shaping you: hurry, hostility, and hyper-individualism     Why information alone is not enough to change us     What the Desert Fathers and Mothers can teach us about counter-formation     What a rule of life is and why it matters for modern Christians     How to organize your whole life around the love of God This message draws on key passages including Romans 12:1-2, Galatians 4:19, 1 John 2:15-17, and Isaiah 64:8, as well as insights from the early church, Dietrich Bonhoeffer, and the ancient practice of a rule of life. Whether you are new to faith or have been following Jesus for decades, this message will challenge you to stop drifting and start presenting yourself intentionally to the God who is already at work shaping you.

    Take My Yoke // Luke Humbrecht

    Are you exhausted even though you have everything you need to rest? You’re not alone. We’ve become a generation obsessed with rest, productivity, and even tracking our sleep—and somehow, we’re still tired. In Matthew 11, Jesus gives one of Scripture’s most personal invitations: “Come to me, all who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.” But then He offers something unexpected: a yoke. Why would Jesus offer a work tool to people who are already exhausted? Because the rest He offers isn’t simply an escape from difficulty. It’s a new way of carrying life with Him. This message explores what it means to find true rest in Jesus, the burdens we carry through pressure, fear, failure, and the need for approval, and how those burdens shape our relationships and decisions. We’ll look at what Jesus’ yoke actually means, how to live yoked to Him in everyday life, and what Psalm 23 reveals about the way God restores our souls. Whether you’re burned out on busyness, burned out on religion, or simply tired of carrying things you were never meant to carry alone, Jesus’ invitation is the same: Come to Me.

    The Other Side Of Obedience

    Sometimes the most important step of faith is one you cannot fully explain yet. In Acts 8, Philip was called away from a successful ministry and sent down a desert road with no details and no destination. He simply obeyed—and that obedience led him to an Ethiopian official who was searching for answers. This message explores what real obedience to God looks like, why He often gives us direction without the full explanation, and how one simple “yes” can have an impact far beyond what we can see. If you’ve been waiting for the whole plan before taking the first step, this is a reminder that God doesn’t need you to see the entire picture. He asks for your next step of faith.

    How Do I Navigate Relationships? | Ways of the Wise

    Who are the people and voices influencing your life—and are they leading you toward wisdom or away from it? Proverbs 13:20 reminds us that “whoever walks with the wise becomes wise,” challenging us to take a closer look at the relationships, influences, and environments shaping us. This message explores how Proverbs calls us to respond wisely to the wicked, our enemies, and fools, while also challenging us to examine our own hearts. True wisdom includes surrounding ourselves with people who will speak truth, sharpen us, and point us toward God. And ultimately, we find the perfect friend in Jesus, who knows us completely and never leaves us.

    How Do I Get a Good Name? | Ways of the Wise Pt. 5

    What does it mean to have a good name? In a world obsessed with personal branding, online reputation, and social media image, the Bible offers a completely different perspective on what makes a name worth having. Drawing from Proverbs, Ecclesiastes, James, and Philippians, this message explores the biblical meaning of a name, why God calls people by name, and what it actually takes to build a life of lasting character and legacy. Whether you are thinking about the legacy you are leaving for your children, working through the consequences of past mistakes, or carrying a label that someone else placed on you, this message speaks directly to the question of identity, character, and where to find grace for a fresh start. This is a message for anyone asking questions like: How do I build a life of integrity? What does the Bible say about legacy and character? How do I recover from a damaged reputation? What does God think about my identity? How do I leave a meaningful legacy for my family? This sermon was recorded at a Sunday morning gathering at Church of the Lookout in Longmont, Colorado.

    How Do I Make Good Decisions? | Ways of the Wise, Pt. 4

    How do we make decisions that are not just wise by the world’s standards, but aligned with God’s will? In Proverbs, we find a clear picture of biblical wisdom: trusting God, seeking His direction, and allowing His Word to guide our choices. In this message, we explore what true wisdom looks like, how to seek God’s guidance in everyday decisions, and the lessons we can learn from Solomon’s life. Through Proverbs, Paul’s missionary journeys, and practical steps for seeking God’s direction, we discover that wisdom is not just about making the right choice—it’s about living in a way that brings glory to God.
