A New Future | Kevin McPeak

What gives us hope when life hurts? In the final week of our Brand New series, Pastor Kevin McPeak walks through the second half of Romans 8 and reminds us that suffering is real—but it is not the end of the story. Through one of the most powerful chapters in all of Scripture, we discover how followers of Jesus can live with unstoppable hope and unconquerable love, even in the middle of pain. Romans 8 reminds us that this life is temporary, but the promises of God are eternal. This message explores four powerful truths about what it means to live with A New Future in Christ: • Suffering is here now, yet I have hope something far better will be. • In my suffering I have help from God the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. • God works for my good, even in suffering, by making me like Christ. • My victory in Christ is certain because God’s love never fails. Pastor Kevin also speaks honestly and compassionately about grief, loss, disappointment, and the reality of suffering in this broken world. This is not a “just move on” message—it’s a reminder that Jesus meets us in our pain and gives us a hope bigger than our circumstances. If you are walking through suffering, uncertainty, or discouragement, this message is a reminder: The best is still ahead. God has not abandoned you. And nothing can separate you from His love.

A New Power | Guy Johnson

What if the Christian life was never meant to be lived in your own strength? In week 7 of our Brand New series, Pastor Guy Johnson walks through the powerful truths of Romans 8—one of the most hope-filled and life-changing chapters in all of Scripture. Often called “The Everest of the New Testament,” Romans 8 reminds us what is now true because of Jesus and what it means to live with the power of the Holy Spirit. Pastor Guy revisits the journey through Romans and shows how Paul has been building toward this incredible reality: Because of Jesus, we are no longer condemned, controlled by sin, or separated from God—we are brand new. This message unpacks four life-changing truths for every follower of Jesus: • I have a new verdict because I’m in Christ. • I have a new mindset because the Spirit is changing me. • I have a new power because the Spirit is in me. • I have a new identity because I’m adopted into God’s family. Pastor Guy reminds us that the Christian life is not about trying harder—it’s about surrendering more fully to the Holy Spirit. If you’ve ever struggled with shame, insecurity, temptation, or feeling spiritually stuck, this message is a reminder: You are not condemned. You are not alone. And you are not powerless. ––––– If this message encouraged you, share it with someone who needs to hear about the freedom and grace of Jesus. ––––– Find us on Facebook and on Instagram.

A New Battle | Kevin McPeak

Why do we still struggle with sin even after putting our faith in Jesus? In week 6 of our Brand New series, Pastor Kevin McPeak walks through Romans 7 and 8 and reminds us that the struggle within us is not proof that we are failing—it’s often proof that God’s Spirit is actively working in us. Using honest stories, practical encouragement, and powerful truth from Scripture, Kevin unpacks the reality of the Christian life: following Jesus does not remove every battle overnight, but it does mean we no longer fight alone. Romans 7 captures the tension so many of us feel: “I do not do the good I want to do, but the evil I do not want to do—this I keep on doing.” If you’ve ever wrestled with shame, temptation, discouragement, or the fear that you’ll never change, this message is for you. In this message, we discover: • The struggle is not a sign of failure. • The journey is not a sprint. • Loving you is not God’s great burden. ––––– If this message encouraged you, share it with someone who needs to hear about the freedom and grace of Jesus. ––––– Find us on Facebook and on Instagram.

A New Freedom | James Grogan

What if following Jesus was never meant to feel like an exhausting checklist? In week 5 of our Brand New series, Pastors James Grogan and Chris Muller-Tabanera walk through Romans 7 and unpack the freedom we have because of Jesus. Through powerful stories, practical illustrations, and Paul’s teaching, this message reminds us that we are no longer bound to a system of rules—we are invited into a relationship of grace. Pastor James opens with the incredible true story of two East German families who risked everything to escape to freedom in a homemade hot air balloon. In the same way, Paul explains that through Jesus we’ve been transferred into a completely new reality: no longer living under the weight of the law, but under grace. Together, James and Chris explore what it means to live with a brand new freedom: • I’m no longer bound to a system; I am joined to a Savior. Jesus didn’t come to create another religious checklist. He came to invite us into a relationship. • I’m no longer bound to sin; I have a new Spirit that produces better fruit. Real transformation doesn’t happen by trying harder—it happens by surrendering more and allowing the Holy Spirit to change us from the inside out. • I’m no longer bound to the measuring stick of the law; Jesus fulfilled it. The law was never meant to prove we were good enough. It was meant to show us how much we need Jesus. This message is a reminder for anyone tired of striving, performing, or feeling like they never measure up. Because of Jesus, you don’t have to earn God’s love, prove your worth, or carry the pressure of perfection anymore. You can stop trying harder. You can surrender more. And you can live truly free. ––––– If this message encouraged you, share it with someone who needs to hear about the freedom and grace of Jesus. ––––– Find us on Facebook and on Instagram.

A New Allegiance | Kevin McPeak

Who’s really in charge of your life? In week four of our Brand New series, Pastor Kevin McPeak walks through Romans 6 and shows that following Jesus isn’t just about forgiveness—it’s about a transfer of allegiance. We all serve something or someone. The question is: who are you giving your life to? Romans 6:14 reminds us of this powerful truth: sin is no longer your master… you are under grace. This message unpacks what it looks like to live under a new allegiance: • From Rules to Relationship • Everyone Serves Something • What You Obey Gains Momentum • Freedom Isn’t Neutral • Your Choices Have Outcomes Pastor Kevin challenges us with a clear picture: You’re not drifting through life—you’re following something. And the good news is this: You don’t have to live under your old master anymore. In Jesus, you’ve been set free to live a brand new life with a brand new allegiance. ––––– If this message challenged you, share it with someone who needs to hear it. ––––– Find us on Facebook and on Instagram.

A New Identity | Kevin McPeak

Do you know what you really have in Christ? In week three of our Brand New series, Pastor Kevin McPeak teaches from Romans 6 and reminds us that many followers of Jesus live unaware of the power, freedom, and identity they already have through Him. Like a family who used a gold nugget as a doorstop without realizing its value, we can know about Jesus—but miss the life-changing reality of being made brand new. Romans 6 answers a big question: If God’s grace is so great, should we just keep sinning? Paul’s answer is clear—By no means. Why? Because grace doesn’t just forgive us. Grace transforms us. This message unpacks what it means to have a new identity in Christ: • We Died to Sin • We Were Raised with Christ • We Are Freed from Sin’s Power • We Have New Life Now and Forever In Jesus, you are dead to sin and alive to God. ––––– If this message encouraged you, share it with someone who needs this reminder today. ––––– Find us on Facebook and on Instagram.

A New Humanity | Hosanna Wong

What have you inherited—and what can Jesus make brand new? In week two of our Brand New series, Hosanna Wong teaches from Romans 5 and reveals the contrast between two legacies: what we inherit in Adam, and what we receive in Jesus. Some patterns may have been passed down to us through family, culture, or pain—but they do not have to define our future. This message explores the powerful truth that in Adam we inherit: • Sin • Separation • Shame • Death But in Jesus, we receive a brand new inheritance: • Salvation from Sin • Close Relationship with God • Freedom from Shame • Brand New Life Hosanna also shares practical ways to break free from patterns that have held us back: Bring shame into the light Speak truth louder than lies Let God transform your hurt so you don’t transfer it Make peace where it is within your power Keep praying bold prayers in the name of Jesus No matter what has been handed down to you, the power of Jesus is greater. You are not stuck. You are not your past. You are not limited to old patterns. In Christ, you belong to a new family and a new future. ––––– If this message encouraged you, share it with someone who needs hope today. ––––– Find us on Facebook and on Instagram.
