    Humble for Home - David Dwight | Promise Of Home

    Humble for Home | Promise of Home | Part 2 In December, we decorate our homes with twinkling lights, festive garlands, and trees adorned with ornaments of all shapes and sizes. Yet even amidst the beauty and cheer, a deep longing lingers — an ache for something more, something greater, something eternal. It’s the longing for a true and lasting home. Psalms 90:1-2 says, “Lord, you have been our dwelling place throughout all generations. Before the mountains were born or you brought forth the whole world, from everlasting to everlasting you are God.” The Lord is our dwelling place—the One who left His heavenly home to take on flesh, die a sinner’s death, and, by His grace, make what is His by nature ours as well. This is the hope we hold onto: we long for heaven and eagerly await our Savior, who will one day bring us home.

    A Child - Pete Bowell | Promise Of Hope

    A Child | Promise of Home | Part 1 As we step into the final month of the year, we also enter the season of Advent — a time to anticipate with hope and prepare our hearts to celebrate the birth of Christ! This morning, we began our Advent sermon series, Promise of Home, with a message from Senior Associate Pastor Pete Bowell. The words of Isaiah 9:6 remind us of the incredible promise fulfilled in Jesus: “For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.” This week, let’s pause and reflect on this awe-inspiring truth: the God of heaven and earth, in His great love, left His throne to redeem the world — to redeem us. And He came to us in the humblest way, as an infant, bringing peace and enduring hope to a weary world. We invite you to join us in preparing our hearts for Christmas. You can worship with us on Sunday, December 8 and Sunday, December 15 at: West Creek | 8, 9:30, and 11:15am The Lodge | 9:30 + 11:15am Livestream | 9:30 + 11:15am We’d also love for you to come home to HOPE for Christmas!

    Awake & Alert - David Dwight | Ephesians

    Over the past six weeks, we have been in the book of Ephesians – Paul’s rich and edifying letter to the church at Ephesus. This morning, we wrapped up this series with a message from Senior Pastor David Dwight reminding us to remain awake and alert in Christ. In Ephesians 6, Paul reminds us to honor each other in the closest relationships in our lives - our families and our colleagues - and to value each other despite our differences and shortcomings. He also writes about the need to prepare ourselves to stand strong against the devil. David reminded us that evil exists in the world, but we can prepare ourselves to stand firm by staying near to God in prayer and to pursue community with each other. God’s strength will protect us when we remain near to him and we will be able to resist temptations that pull us away from encouraging relationships.

    Trinitarian Love - David Dwight | Ephesians

    Trinitarian Love | Ephesians | Part 5 This morning, we continued our series on the book of Ephesians with a powerful message from Senior Pastor David Dwight. As followers of Christ, we are invited to reflect His love in every relationship—whether with friends, coworkers, family members, or our marriages. This calling isn’t just about action; it’s about embodying a heart that seeks to serve, elevate, and dignify others. Ephesians 5:21 (NLT) reminds us, “And further, submit to one another out of reverence for Christ.” When we grasp the depth of Christ’s love for us—love that is wide and long and high and deep—the idea of submission becomes less intimidating. Instead, it offers us a glimpse into the Trinity’s perfect relationship, providing a beautiful model for how we are called to live and love in community. All messages from this series, including today’s, are available online on YouTube at @HopeChurchRVA and if you missed any, we encourage you to watch them back.

    Doing My Part - David Dwight | Ephesians

    Doing My Part | Ephesians | Part 4 When you think of the Church, what comes to mind? Is it just four walls and a roof? Or is it something more? This morning, we continued our series on the book of Ephesians with a message from Senior Pastor David Dwight. In Ephesians 4:11-16, Paul, who had suffered greatly for Christ, paints a beautiful vision of the Church. To be the Church is to live out our “yes” to Christ in an active, intentional way. It means coming together in unity as the body of Christ, equipping one another for works of service, and strengthening the Church through our unique gifts. It means reaching out to those who have not yet heard the good news and helping one another grow in spiritual maturity. We’re grateful to be the Church alongside you. If you haven’t taken the step to go deeper, we invite you to leave the sidelines and join us on the field. There is a role within the body that only you can fill — a role designed by God, who created you in His image and equipped you to further His Kingdom and bring Him glory.

    Who Knew? - Pete Bowell | Ephesians

    Who Knew? | Ephesians | Part 3 In a world marred by sin, we know that things will inevitably fall apart—relationships may disappoint, beauty fades, bodies wither and wane, and wealth never truly satisfies. Yet, in the midst of this brokenness, there is the Church. The Church—imperfect, yet radiant—stands as a community of brothers and sisters in Christ, shining like stars in a dark world. We are that Church. Together, as Jesus’ hands and feet, we are called to reveal His boundless love to others. As we step into this new week and the months ahead, let us pray that we become agents of reconciliation, grace, and light in a fallen world. Listen to this morning’s message from Senior Associate Pastor Pete Bowell and catch up with all messages from our Ephesians series at the link in our bio.

    From... To - David Dwight | Ephesians

    From… To | Ephesians | Part 2 We continued our sermon series on the book of Ephesians with a powerful message from Senior Pastor David Dwight. You can watch it online at the link in our bio! In Ephesians 2:1-10 (NIV), Paul gives us a clear snapshot of the gospel, and we couldn’t summarize it any better: “As for you, you were dead in your transgressions and sins, in which you used to live when you followed the ways of this world and of the ruler of the kingdom of the air, the spirit who is now at work in those who are disobedient. All of us also lived among them at one time, gratifying the cravings of our flesh and following its desires and thoughts. Like the rest, we were by nature deserving of wrath. But because of his great love for us, God, who is rich in mercy, made us alive with Christ even when we were dead in transgressions—it is by grace you have been saved. And God raised us up with Christ and seated us with him in the heavenly realms in Christ Jesus, in order that in the coming ages he might show the incomparable riches of his grace, expressed in his kindness to us in Christ Jesus. For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— not by works, so that no one can boast. For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.” We encourage you to dive deeper with discussion guides which are available weekly at the link in our bio and at hopechurchrva.com/moreresources
