    Lift Your Eyes | Scott Neal

    Have you ever had one moment completely shift your mood, your faith, or your peace? In this message, we wrap up the More Than a Moment series by looking at the story of Lazarus in John 11 and discovering a powerful truth: we don’t always need a different moment, we need a higher perspective. When life feels uncertain, when prayers feel unanswered, and when God seems silent, it’s easy to get stuck in what’s right in front of us. But Jesus invites us to see from a different vantage point. A perspective filled with hope, purpose, and resurrection life. If you’re feeling overwhelmed, discouraged, or just trying to hold onto faith, this message is for you. Key Thought: Sometimes nothing around you changes… until your perspective does.

    Closer Than You Think | Jason Monaghan

    What does it actually mean to be lost? In Part 2 of More Than a Moment, we look at one of the most familiar stories Jesus told in Gospel of Luke chapter 15 and discover something deeper than we’ve been taught. Being lost isn’t about how far you’ve gone. It’s about disconnection. Through the story of the prodigal son, we see that whether you’ve run from God or spent your life trying to earn from Him, the issue is the same and the invitation is the same. God isn’t after performance. He wants relationship. If you’ve ever felt stuck, distant, or unsure how you got where you are, this message is for you.

    Easter is Just the Beginning | Scott Neal

    Easter isn’t just a moment… it changes everything. For a lot of people, Easter feels like a tradition. A holiday. Something you show up for and move on from. But what if it’s more than that? What if the resurrection isn’t just about life after death… but about life right now? In this message, we explore the real weight of Easter and why it matters more than anything else. Because if Jesus actually rose from the dead, it doesn’t just inspire us, it redefines everything. Your past. Your present. Your future. This isn’t about religion. It’s about a reality that can change how you see your life today. In this message, you’ll discover: • Why Christianity rises and falls on the resurrection • What Easter means for your life right now, not just someday • How your past no longer gets to define you • Why you’re not alone in what you’re walking through • How your story isn’t over, even if it feels like it If you’ve ever wondered if Easter really matters… this is for you.

    The Love That Would Rather Die | Scott Neal

    For many of us, we were taught that Jesus died because God needed a sacrifice. But what if that’s not the full story? What if Jesus didn’t die because God demanded blood… but because God is love? In Part 3 of Killing God, we wrestle with the real question behind the cross: Why did Jesus have to die? This message challenges the idea of an angry, distant God and reveals something far more powerful: 👉 A love that sees you fully 👉 A love that doesn’t wait for you to get it right 👉 A love that would rather die than give up on you Even when we rejected it… Even when we nailed it to a cross… Love stayed. If you’ve ever struggled to believe God actually loves you… this message is for you.

    The Great Reset | Scott Neal

    In Part 2 of our series Killing God, we zoom out and see the bigger story. From the garden in Genesis to the garden in Revelation, Scripture tells one unified story. And right in the middle stands a tree that changes everything. This message explores how Jesus didn’t just come to get you to heaven someday. He came to rewrite your story right now. -What Adam broke, Jesus restored -What was lost, is being made new -What feels broken in your life is not the final chapter If this story is true, then: -You don’t have to live outrunning your past -Your pain is not wasted -Your future is not hopeless This is more than theology. This is your life being reset.

    The Gods We Invent | Scott Neal

    For many of us, the picture of God we grew up with feels confusing. Loving one moment. Angry the next. But what if the God we imagined isn’t actually the God Jesus revealed? In this message, The Gods We Invent, we explore one of the most powerful stories in the Bible, the story of Abraham and Isaac, and how it points forward to the cross. For centuries people believed the gods demanded sacrifice. Blood. Payment. Appeasement. But what if the cross reveals something completely different? What if the cross is not humanity offering a sacrifice to God, but God offering Himself to humanity?\ In this message we discover: • Why Genesis 22 is more than a test • How the story of Abraham and Isaac foreshadows Jesus • Why the cross reframes everything we thought we knew about God • The difference between a God who demands sacrifice and a God who gives Himself The cross does not reveal an angry God demanding payment. It reveals a loving God giving Himself for the world. If you want to know what God is like, look at Jesus.

    Why Religion Feels Heavy | Scott Neal

    Many people assume Christianity is about trying harder to behave better. But what if that idea is actually the problem? In this message from Part 5 of the Relief series, we examine a subtle but dangerous distortion of the gospel: moralism. It looks spiritual, sounds biblical, and even encourages good behavior. But underneath it all is a message that creates pressure instead of freedom. The Bible reveals a critical distinction between law and grace. The law exposes our problem but cannot fix it. The gospel does something entirely different. Instead of modifying behavior, it transforms the heart. We also explore the difference between the Old Covenant and the New Covenant, why the Ten Commandments are described as a “ministry of death,” and how the blood of Jesus establishes a completely new relationship with God. When law and grace are mixed together, people live under guilt, pressure, and confusion. But when the gospel is understood clearly, something changes. You realize that you are no longer trying to earn a place with God. You are a child who already belongs. And that truth brings relief.  _______________________________ Subscribe to our YouTube channel for the latest messages and content by clicking here: https://www.youtube.com/forestparkchurch?sub_confirmation=1 To support our ministry and help us continue to reach people in Elizabeth City, and around the world click here: http://www.forestparkchurch.com/give/ Our mission: Help people follow Jesus one step at a time.

    Faith That Fights | Scott Neal

    Some weeks, “try harder” theology collapses around your feet. In Part 4 of our Relief series, we talk about the kind of faith that survives when life doesn’t make sense. What do you do when prayers aren’t answered? When doubts won’t disappear? When you feel angry, forgotten, or wounded? Faith is not certainty. Faith is not control. Faith is not pushing down questions. Faith is this: No matter what, I trust God. From Hebrews 11 to Matthew 17, and the powerful story of Jacob wrestling with God in Genesis, we discover something freeing: You don’t need more faith. You need the right kind of faith. And even a mustard-seed-sized trust can move mountains. If you’re wrestling right now, this message is for you.
