  1. Truth That Lasts

    4d ago

    Truth That Lasts

    What we hear repeatedly eventually becomes what we believe. In week four of our Imprinted series, Pastor Bobby walks through Psalm 136 and explores the phrase repeated throughout the entire chapter: “His faithful love endures forever.” Through stories of God's faithfulness, the psalm invites us to remember a truth that can easily get drowned out by our circumstances. When life is difficult, disappointment is loud, and questions remain unanswered, what truth are we rehearsing? This message is a reminder that God's love is not determined by our current season. His faithfulness has been constant throughout every chapter of Scripture, and it remains constant in our lives today.

  2. God Walks With You

    God Walks With You

    Some passages in Scripture become so familiar that we stop noticing how powerful they really are. In week three of our Imprinted series, Pastor Bobby walks through Psalm 23 and reminds us that this psalm is more than comforting words — it’s an invitation to know the Shepherd personally and trust His voice through every season of life. Whether you’re walking through peace, uncertainty, disappointment, or a valley you didn’t expect, Psalm 23 points us back to the nearness, goodness, and faithfulness of God.

  3. Fix Your Eyes

    May 17

    Fix Your Eyes

    Comparison, bitterness, disappointment, and hopelessness all begin to shape us when our eyes are fixed in the wrong direction. In week two of our Imprinted series, Pastor Bobby walks through Psalm 73 and the honest struggle of feeling frustrated when life doesn’t seem fair. Through the poetry of Asaph, this message explores how comparison steals joy, how bitterness takes root, and how the presence of God is the only thing that truly restores our perspective. No matter what season you’re walking through, this sermon is a reminder that what we focus on shapes the way we see everything — and when we turn our eyes back to Jesus, temporary things stop pretending to be ultimate things.

  4. God Still Sees You

    God Still Sees You

    Feeling forgotten can change the way we see everything — especially God. In this message, Pastor Bobby explores the tension of walking through difficult seasons and the reminder that God’s faithfulness is deeper than our circumstances. Unanswered prayers, disappointment, loneliness, and pain can slowly convince us that God is distant, but Isaiah 49 paints a different picture — one of a God who sees, remembers, and stays faithful to His people. Through the beauty of biblical poetry and the story of Thomas, Pastor Bobby unpacks what it looks like to trust God in uncertain seasons and hold onto His promises even when life feels heavy.

  6. "What Are You Building Your Life On?"

    Apr 26

    "What Are You Building Your Life On?"

    At the end of the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus brings everything down to one question: what are you building your life on? This message walks through His final words and the choice in front of all of us—to build on the rock or on the sand. Not just hearing what He says, but actually living it out. We talk about what it looks like to trust God, to let His words speak to us personally, and to live a life that actually reflects it.

  7. "How Can I Do EVERYTHING Jesus Says To?"

    Apr 19

    "How Can I Do EVERYTHING Jesus Says To?"

    What does it actually mean to follow Jesus—not just outwardly, but from the heart? In this message, we continue through the Sermon on the Mount and see how Jesus raises the standard in a way that challenges all of us. He doesn’t just address our actions—He goes deeper, exposing the motives behind them. From anger and lust to integrity and how we treat others, this isn’t about behavior modification… it’s about heart transformation. If we’re honest, His words can feel impossible. And that’s the point. Jesus is showing us that we don’t just need to try harder—we need a new heart. If He really is King, then His authority matters. This message is an invitation to stop pretending, look beneath the surface, and trust Him to do what only He can do.

  8. The Foolishness Of The Gospel

    Apr 5

    The Foolishness Of The Gospel

    What if what seems foolish… is actually the truth? This Easter, Pastor Bobby Harrell talks through the tension at the center of the gospel. The idea that a crucified Savior brings life can feel confusing, weak, or even hard to believe—especially when the world still feels broken and uncertain. But what if the very thing that seems foolish is actually where real life begins? This message looks at how God brings life out of what looks dead, hope into what feels hopeless, and purpose into places that feel empty. It’s an honest look at why the message of Jesus can sound foolish at first—yet still changes lives. No matter where you’re coming from, this is an invitation to take a fresh look at Jesus and decide for yourself.
