    31 May 2026 | Series: The Upside Down Kingdom | Mercy, Purity, and Peace | Rochelle Lamborn

    In this message, Rochelle Lamborn continues The Upside Down Kingdom series, exploring three powerful Beatitudes from Matthew 5: mercy, purity of heart, and peacemaking. Through the parables of the Good Samaritan and the Unforgiving Debtor, we’re reminded that Kingdom people reflect God’s character in their relationships. This message challenges us to move beyond appearances and effort, and instead allow Jesus to transform us from the inside out. Mercy that costs us, purity that flows from knowing our identity in Christ, and peace that seeks wholeness - not avoidance - are all marks of God’s children. As we experience God’s mercy, receive His peace, and allow Him to shape our hearts, our relationships become a living testimony of His upside-down kingdom.

    24 May 2026 | Series: The Upside Down Kingdom | Touching the Untouchable | Phil Brown

    What does it look like to live with the power of the Holy Spirit in everyday life? In this Pentecost message, Phil Brown explores the upside‑down kingdom of God through the story of Jesus healing the leper in Luke 5 - a moment where compassion overrides fear, and love crosses social boundaries. “Touching the Untouchable” challenges us to consider who the “untouchables” are in our world today, and how, through the power of the Holy Spirit, we can love, serve, and minister without being overcome. Drawing from Acts, the Gospels, and personal reflection, this message unpacks signs of the Spirit at work - healing, prophecy, tongues, testimony, deliverance, and love - and reminds us that we are not called to live timid lives, but Spirit‑empowered ones. Just as Jesus reached out without fear, we too are invited to step beyond comfort, trusting the Holy Spirit to guide and protect us as we reach others. A timely and encouraging message calling believers to live boldly, love courageously, and walk in the power given through the Holy Spirit.

    What are you really hungry for? In this message from our Upside Down Kingdom series, Kayla explores Jesus’ words in Matthew 5:6—“Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be satisfied.” This message unpacks the deep restlessness we all feel, the ways we try to fill it with things that don’t satisfy, and the invitation Jesus offers to experience true fulfillment now.

    In this message from our Upside Down Kingdom series, Brendan Vink explores Jesus’ words in Matthew 5:5: “Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth.” Meekness is often misunderstood as weakness, but Jesus shows us that it is actually strength under control. This message will encourage you to slow down, release the need to win every battle, and allow God to grow your character as you live out faith in everyday moments.

    3 May 2026 | Series: The Upside Down Kingdom | Blessed Are Those Who Mourn | Kayla Duckett

    In Week 3 of our Upside Down Kingdom series, Kayla Duckett unpacks one of Jesus’ most confronting Beatitudes: “Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted.” This message explores grief in all its forms—personal loss, shame‑wrapped grief, sorrow over sin, and lament for a broken world—and why none of it disqualifies us from God’s presence. Through Scripture, lived experience, and reflections from C.S. Lewis, this message reminds us that grief is not a faith failure but a sign of love—and that Jesus meets us not with explanations, but with His presence. Whether your grief is visible or hidden, recent or long‑carried, this message invites you to bring it honestly before God and discover the comfort of the Holy Spirit.

    What does it truly mean to be poor in spirit? In this message from Matthew 5:1–3, Josh Duckett opens the Beatitudes by exploring humility, dependence on God, and the upside‑down nature of God’s kingdom. Discover how poverty of spirit is not self‑hatred, but honest humility — the doorway to a Spirit‑filled life and the place where kingdom living begins. This message invites us to lay down self‑sufficiency, embrace repentance, and step into a deeper relationship with the Father.

    19 April 2026 | Series: The Upside Down Kingdom | The Way Of Repentance | Kayla Duckett

    In this message, Kayla Duckett launches our new series The Upside Down Kingdom, exploring how Jesus introduces a kingdom that turns the values of the world on their head. Through Matthew 4 and the teachings of Jesus, we’re invited to rethink what power, success, strength, and victory really look like in God’s kingdom. This message unpacks repentance not as shame or condemnation, but as a gracious invitation to change our minds, realign our lives, and live as citizens of a kingdom that is already here and still to come.

    05 April 2026 | Series: A Sent People | A Faith Worth Imitating | Josh Duckett

    On Easter Sunday, Josh Duckett explores what it means to follow Jesus through imitation, not just information. Drawing from Paul’s call to “imitate me as I imitate Christ,” this message reminds us that resurrection life is meant to be lived out and seen through ordinary people who put Jesus first. Easter isn’t just a celebration that Jesus is alive — it’s the beginning of a movement where faith spreads from life to life. As we grow in relationship with Jesus, our lives begin to reflect His love, light, and sacrifice. The challenge is simple: who is watching your life, and what are they learning about Jesus?
