While various sources vie for ultimate trust, only Jesus truly deserves it. - Ever wondered who or what you're really putting your trust in? Join us this Sunday as we dive into this important question. As Christians, we often say we trust Jesus, but do our actions truly reflect that? Sometimes it's our money, success, or even politics that we're really relying on. But only Jesus laid down His life for us, making Him the ultimate source of trust. So, let's explore together what it really means to trust Jesusthe one who never lets us down.

Christians reject superficial pluralism; we're here to boldly share Jesus. - Ever find yourself holding back on sharing the good news about Jesus, questioning if evangelism still has a place in our modern world? That's what we're digging into in our Sunday message.
We'll explore the common struggle of uncertainty, driven by the prevailing spiritual idea that all religions are equally valid, which can make exclusive claims seem arrogant. Despite its wide acceptance, we'll delve into why this belief lacks depth. Moreover, we'll reveal the transformative impact of sharing Jesus' message, even in the face of daunting challenges.
Join us as we untangle this dilemma and learn how to authentically communicate the timeless truth of Christ in our contemporary world.

Doubt isn't faith's enemy; it's a key part of our journey when we bring it to Jesus. - Is doubt something to be ashamed of? Does having doubts make us inadequate Christians?
Many of us grapple with these questions. But what if doubt is not the enemy of faith but rather a natural part of our journey?
In this sermon, we'll delve into the reality that doubt is a common experience for believers. We'll explore how denying our doubts only hinders our spiritual growth. Instead, we'll learn the importance of acknowledging and honestly confronting our doubts.
But how do we bring our doubts to Jesus? How do we find the courage to lay them before Him? Together, we'll discover how to navigate doubt in a way that strengthens our relationship with Christ.
Join us as we explore the nature of doubt and learn how to handle it as followers of Jesus in today's world.

The Resurrection of Jesus transforms everything. Trusting in it invites us into a humble journey, connecting deeply with God's infinite love. - In our Easter Sunday message, "He Is Risen" by Rev. Seth Enriquez, we're reminded that Jesus' Resurrection assures us that even in our hardest moments, God is actively bringing hope and renewal into our lives. Yet, in today's world, we sometimes find it hard to accept such miracles, preferring what we can see and prove. But maybe we're more open-minded than we realize. If we can embrace this, we'll find ourselves ready to experience the overwhelming love of God shown in Jesus' Resurrection.

The answer to this question lies at the heart of the love of God found in Jesus Christ as he gives his life to save ours forever. - Join us for our Good Friday message "Why Good Friday" by Rev. Seth Enriquez.
Why do we call the day Jesus was betrayed, arrested, and crucified "Good"? This question carries profound implications for our lives and our world, for within this sacrifice lies the goodness that heals our relationship with God and opens the door to our healing and salvation, if only we trust in him.

The love of Jesus is true love, intimate and vulnerable, disrupts comfort, and in its sacrificial essence, transforms hearts and the very fabric of our world. - Join us for our Maundy Thursday message"What Is Love" by Rev. Seth Enriquez.
This Maundy Thursday, we reflect on Jesus' command to love one another as he loves us, demonstrated by his act of washing the disciples' feet, even Judas', who would betray him. True love draws close, is vulnerable, and though sometimes uncomfortable, is honest and healing as seen in Jesus' sacrificial act of washing feet and giving his life for his friends. Embracing this divine love transforms both our hearts and the world around us.
