    And They Did Not Repent Part 1

    Many people picture Satan as the ruler of hell—sitting on a throne, commanding demons. But that’s not the picture Scripture gives us. He’s not in charge; he’s a defeated enemy with no authority of his own. In today’s message, Pastor Vic reminds you of something important: God is in complete control. Not just over the earth, but over everything—even what you tend to fear most. And that means nothing operates outside of His rule. He’s the One in charge of you and your circumstances.

    Intelligent Design = Intelligent Designer Part 3

    Homeostasis is the scientific term for the body’s ability to maintain stable internal conditions—like temperature, pH, and fluid balance—despite changes outside. It works through precise regulation that keeps you alive without you even thinking about it. Today, Pastor Vic points out that this kind of order doesn’t sustain itself. God actively upholds and governs you. And if God cares about balance at that level, it says something about how He governs every part of your life.

    Intelligent Design = Intelligent Designer Part 2

    An artist with a blank canvas can create whatever they want—a landscape, a portrait, something abstract. That freedom belongs to the creator. In today’s message, Pastor Vic reminds you that God holds the same authority over His creation. He isn’t limited by the laws of nature—He’s the one who established them. And that means He has the right to act according to His will. The question is, are you willing to recognize His authority, even when you don’t fully understand it?

    Intelligent Design = Intelligent Designer Part 1

    Some decisions are no-brainers—accepting free money, snapping on a seatbelt, backing up important data, or apologizing when you’re wrong. The right choice is obvious. Today, Pastor Vic reminds you that when it comes to God, the choice is just as clear. He delights in saving rather than condemning, showing mercy rather than judgment. So why would you resist that? When you really see what God offers, the better question becomes: why wouldn’t you choose Him?

    Salvation Belongs to our God Part 3

    Are you going through a time of loss or pain? You wonder why it must happen and what God is doing. Your limited perspective prevents you from seeing the greater purpose God has for the hard time you’re enduring.  If you’re struggling today, Pastor Vic has an encouraging word for you: all the trials and hardships you endure on this earth will one day make sense. And on that day, your tears will be wiped off your face, and you will enjoy His presence.

    Salvation Belongs to our God Part 2

    When something really sinks in, it changes you. It’s not just something you know—it’s something you feel and live out. In today’s message, Pastor Vic reminds you that when you truly understand what Jesus has done for you, the response is inevitable: love, service, and worship. And that’s why heaven is filled with unending praise. Because there, you see clearly the depth of His sacrifice—and it moves you in ways you’re only beginning to grasp now, but you have all eternity to let it all sink in.

    Salvation Belongs to our God part 1

    We don’t always like to think of God as a judge. The idea of judgment can feel uncomfortable. But if you’ve ever been deeply wronged—if someone has hurt you and faced no consequences—then justice starts to sound different. In today’s message, Pastor Vic invites you to see God’s judgment in a new light. Because for those who have endured injustice and suffering, His justice isn’t something to fear—it’s something to long for. It means wrongs will be made right, and tears turned to joy.

    The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse Part 3

    Being on the wrong end of injustice is incredibly discouraging. The judge and jury got it wrong, the prosecutor and defense lawyer have left the court, and there’s nothing you can do about it. However, Pastor Vic reminds you that one day, Jesus will right every wrong, and even the good and right decisions will be made better. He’s a perfect judge, and right now, you might be left wondering how long until that justice comes, but rest assured, it’s coming.
