    ”Free Together” | What If Independence Is Making Us Less Free? // Christian Martinsen (Ex. 19:1-6)

    What if our obsession with independence is actually making us less free? We live in a world with more content and connection than ever—and yet genuine community can feel increasingly scarce. We’ve been taught to imagine freedom as needing nobody, owing nobody, and belonging to nobody. But the story of Exodus offers a radically different vision. In Exodus 19, God reminds Israel that He rescued them from slavery, carried them to Himself, and formed them into a people with a purpose. God sets us free FROM slavery, INTO family, and FOR the world. In this message, Pastor Christian explores why biblical freedom begins with grace rather than self-reliance, why Jesus doesn’t simply save individuals but creates a new family, and why everything God gives to us eventually becomes something He wants to give through us. Christian community isn’t simply finding people we like or a place where we feel supported. It’s learning to belong to Jesus so deeply that we become free to give our lives away in love. Freedom isn’t finally the ability to need nobody. Freedom is becoming secure enough in God that we can give ourselves away to somebody. This message also introduces where we’re headed this fall at Frontier as we journey through Exodus: Learning to Live Free—discovering how God rescues, forms, gathers, and fills a people so they can live for the sake of the world.

    SPECIAL MESSAGE: ”THE PROCESS” | Paul Martini

    What do we do when we have a promise from God, but find ourselves stuck in the process? In this powerful message, Paul Martini, Lead Pastor of New Life City Church in Albuquerque, New Mexico, teaches on what God does in the waiting seasons of our lives. Through the story of Jacob, his longing for Rachel, the unexpected years with Leah, and the long road between promise and fulfillment—Paul reminds us that the process is not wasted. God is at work even when life looks nothing like we expected. This message carried particular weight for us because just two weeks before joining us at Frontier, Paul, a healthy 45-year-old... suffered a sudden heart attack. He came to us not simply with a teaching about process, but as someone actively walking through pain, uncertainty, weakness, and dependence on God himself. It became a deeply personal morning about disappointment, waiting, suffering, and trusting that God is present in all of it. The process may not look like the promise—but God has not abandoned you in the process. Wherever you find yourself right now—waiting for breakthrough, grieving what hasn't happened, carrying disappointment, or simply wondering what God is doing—we pray this message meets you there and gives you courage to keep trusting Him. THE PROCESS | Paul Martini | Frontier Church Paul Martini is the Lead Pastor of New Life City in Albuquerque, NM, and has spent years equipping the Church in the ministry and gifts of the Holy Spirit around the world.
