Men, life is a fight — and if you want to win, you must show up ready to battle. Nothing comes without sacrifice and hard work. Every day, you and your family are up against enemies that want to take you out. If you don’t fight, you’ll lose. Your kids need you to lead them with strength and consistency. If you want to build a legacy, it starts with the fight you bring every day. Join Pastor Danny as he starts a brand-new series all about how to fight for the things that matter most. Speaker: Pastor Danny Anderson
As Pastor Danny wraps up the Religion vs Relationship series, he’s highlighting how self-righteousness can make us judgmental and lead us to look down on others. Religion can sometimes feed into that mindset, but the truth is, you can’t truly love someone if you think you’re better than them. Our righteousness doesn’t come from ourselves—it’s a gift we receive through faith. Speaker: Pastor Danny Anderson
Let’s be real — hypocrisy in the church is one of the biggest reasons people walk away from faith. Maybe you’ve seen it. Maybe you’ve been hurt by it. In this message, we’re not making excuses — we’re confronting it head-on. If you’ve ever thought, “Christians don’t live what they preach,” this one’s for you. There’s more to faith — and to Jesus — than what you’ve been shown. Speaker: Pastor Danny Anderson
Religion is all about rules, and the pressure of trying to earn God’s approval. But a real relationship with God is based on love, not performance. It’s about what Jesus already did, not what you have to do. One crushes you with shame; the other reminds you who you really are. Join Pastor Aaron Beasley, as he explains to us why relationship beats religion every time. Speaker: Pastor Aaron Beasley
We all wrestle with reasons that hold us back from serving — whether it’s time, fear, or feeling like we don’t have much to offer. But Jesus gave us an example to follow: humble, intentional service. In this message, we’re invited to rediscover the path to purpose, joy, and true greatness — not through status, but through serving. What might change if we picked up the towel and stepped into the life we were made for? Speaker: Pastor Danny Anderson
We live in a world where it’s easy to treat faith like a product—something to watch, consume, and critique from a distance. But Jesus didn’t invite us to stay on the sidelines; He called us to get on the field. This message is a challenge to move from passive belief to active obedience. You were saved to serve, not spectate. Speaker: Pastor Danny Anderson
Many of us have become comfortable consumers. If we don’t challenge this mindset, God risks becoming just another part of our lives instead of the center. To truly follow Christ and become more like Him, we must model His behavior by serving others. Pastor Cody challenges us to grab a towel and serve with humility, focus on what we can do, and do it faithfully. Speaker: Pastor Cody Johnson
People who are far from God matter deeply to Him. As a church, we are on a relentless pursuit to see people who are far from God come to Christ and grow in Christ. When the church stops pursuing the lost, it drifts from God’s heart. Pastor Danny reminds us of what’s at stake and to never stop pursuing those who are far from Christ in our lives! Speaker: Pastor Danny Anderson
No mistake is too big, and no past is too messy for the grace of God. If you’ve ever wondered whether you’ve gone too far or done too much to be forgiven, this message is for you. Jesus came not to condemn, but to restore—and His grace reaches deeper than your guilt. Discover the freedom that comes when you stop running and start receiving the forgiveness that’s been waiting for you all along. Speaker:
Sometimes the greatest danger isn’t in taking a bold step—it’s in standing still. In a world full of challenges and injustice, staying silent or playing it safe comes at a cost. This message explores the unseen risk of not taking action, the power of purpose, and what it means to be brave when it really counts. What if you were made for such a time as this? Speaker: Pastor Danny Anderson
We often think power and success come from strength, status, or control—but what if the real path to greatness looks completely different? Pride leads to destruction, but humility opens the door to wisdom, influence, and purpose. Through the life of Moses, we see that true greatness isn’t about exalting ourselves but about surrendering to something greater. Are you ready to take the unconventional path? Speaker: Pastor Danny Anderson
Encouragement has the power to lift a weary heart, strengthen tired faith, and change lives. But how do you become the kind of person others turn to for hope? This message explores the qualities of true encouragers—how they give generously, see potential in others, and walk closely with God. You have more influence than you realize—will you use it to build others up? Speaker: Pastor Danny Anderson
Sometimes, what God asks of us doesn’t make sense. It challenges our logic, our comfort, and even our desires. But what if obedience, even when it’s hard, leads to something greater than we can see right now? Speaker: Pastor Danny Anderson
Failure may feel like a dead end, but it isn't. How you handle setbacks shapes your future more than the setbacks themselves. Will you let pride or discouragement keep you down, or will you rise up and try again? This message will challenge you to learn, grow, and keep pushing forward—because your story isn't over yet. Speaker: Pastor Cody Johnson
When no one is watching, who are you? In a world that rewards shortcuts and compromise, integrity can feel like an outdated idea—but it's the key to real freedom. In this message, Pastor Aaron Beasley uses the story of Joseph to show us how, in the face of temptation, we can rise above it and step into the life God calls us to live. Speaker: Pastor Danny Anderson
We all face fear in our lives. Joshua 1:9 commands us to "be strong and courageous"- but what does it truly mean to face our fears with such courage? Join Pastor Danny as he explores Joshua's personal journey with courage and shows us how to apply these lessons to our own challenges. Speaker: Pastor Danny Anderson
We all carry a box of hopes, dreams, and desires into our relationships—shaped by our experiences, observations, and influences. When we burden our partner with the full weight of these expectations, love can become strained by unmet demands. While tension over these differing desires is natural in marriage, how do we handle it? In this message, Pastor Danny and his wife Jackie share four practical ways to manage this tension in our marriages and relationships. Speaker: Pastor Danny Anderson
We all carry a box of hopes, dreams, and desires into our relationships—shaped by what we’ve seen, heard, and experienced. When we place the weight of those expectations solely on our spouse, love can become strained and our relationship becomes transactional. But what do we do when our spouse doesn't own or respect our box of hopes, dreams, and desires? The answer may surprise you. Speaker: Pastor Danny Anderson
We all carry a box of hopes, dreams, and desires into our relationships—shaped by what we’ve seen, heard, and experienced. But when we place the weight of those expectations solely on our spouse, love can become strained under the pressure of unmet demands. So how can we carry our spouse's "box" in a way that makes them feel truly loved and appreciated? In this message, Pastor Danny reveals a key idea, straight from Scripture, that could transform your relationship. Speaker: Pastor Danny Anderson
We all carry a box of hopes, dreams, and desires into our relationships—shaped by what we've seen, heard, and experienced. But when we place the weight of those expectations solely on our partner, love can become strained under the pressure of unmet demands.

Don't miss this life-changing conversation on love, expectations, and the heart of what God intended for our relationships! Speaker: Pastor Cody Johnson
"If you change your thinking, you will change your life." In the final week of our series, "Little by Little," Pastor Danny Anderson will teach how small, intentional shifts in your mindset can transform your daily experience. By taking control of your thoughts, seeing difficulties as opportunities, and giving your mind a daily workout, you can cultivate a life filled with peace, joy, and purpose. God's Word reminds us to fix our thoughts on what is true because our inner state shapes our outer experience. Don't miss this practical, powerful message about the small steps you can take to renew your mind! Speaker: Pastor Danny Anderson

In the teaser for a new series, Pastor Danny unpacks the idea that change—whether in our relationships, health, mind, or walk with God—takes place by making small choices consistently over time. Speaker: Pastor Danny Anderson
Faith isn’t always easy—sometimes it even feels like a struggle, just like Scott Calvin’s journey in the movie "The Santa Clause." The truth is, we’re not meant to figure it out alone. We need people to encourage us as Jonathan did for David in the Old Testament, and we need to count the cost like Mary did when she was chosen to be the mother of Jesus, the Savior of the world. But here’s the best part: Faith is bigger than us. Like a mustard seed growing into something incredible, our faith can impact others in ways we may never see. Join us for Week 3 of "Christmas at the Movies" as Pastor Danny Anderson shares powerful lessons of faith from "The Santa Clause." Speaker: Pastor Danny Anderson
Let's face it—no family is perfect, and that's what makes them, well, family. When things get tough in your relationships, it might feel easier to just go full "Home Alone" and isolate yourself. The truth is, we're not meant to do life alone. No family is perfect, but forgiveness is the secret to healing your relationships and living the abundant life God desires for us. It's not always easy, but choosing grace over bitterness opens the door to peace and restoration. Join us for Week 2 of "Christmas at the Movies" as Pastor Danny Anderson shares some powerful lessons from the holiday classic "Home Alone.” Don't let family dysfunction hold you back from the love, connection, and hope that's waiting for you. Speaker: Pastor Danny Anderson
This week kicks off our exciting new teaching series, CHRISTMAS AT THE MOVIES! Join us as we go on a journey through Jim Carrey's movie adaptation of Charles Dickens’s "A Christmas Carol" and uncover truths from this classic story. Pastor Danny warns us about the “Scrooge” that lives in each of us while offering Biblical guidance to overcome it. The Bible, along with this timeless tale, reminds us that it is never too late to change and make a difference in our lives. Speaker: Pastor Danny Anderson
What do you do when you don’t know what to do? What if the right decisions could transform your life and bring honor to God? In this week’s “Espresso Shot” message, Pastor Cody Johnson reminds us that poor decisions—or avoiding them altogether—can wreck our lives. But by seeking God’s priorities, wise counsel, and His peace, we can align our choices with His perfect will. Join us as we learn to let God transform the way you think and step into decisions that lead to His good, pleasing, and perfect plan for your life! Speaker: Pastor Cody Johnson
Have you ever thought about what it means to truly imitate God? We are called to mimic God and live a life of love. Mimicking God means embracing His nature as a giver. In the final week of our series, ‘Overflow,’ Pastor Danny Anderson explains that God’s giving is consistent, extravagant, and intentional, rooted in His plan for our salvation. God gave His Son for us—and you are never more like God than when you give. How can you reflect God’s generosity today? Speaker: Pastor Danny Anderson
You were created to make an impact! Want to know how? By using your money to build God’s Kingdom! In Week 3 of our “Overflow” series, Pastor Danny reminds us that generosity is the overflow of a heart filled with love—and true love shows itself in what we give back to God. Store your treasures where they’ll last forever—in heaven. The question is: What portion will you return to God? Speaker: Pastor Danny Anderson
Imagine giving your child an allowance, and they use it to buy you a gift. Did they truly buy you a gift, or did they simply return what was already yours? This reflects our relationship with God and the resources He has entrusted to us. Join us for week 2 of “Overflow,” as Pastor Danny Anderson reminds us that when we give, we’re simply returning a portion of what God has already given us. The question is: what portion will you choose to give back? Speaker: Pastor Danny Anderson
What if the real blessing of life lies not in what you receive but in what you give? Scripture promises that those who give generously will experience overflow—pressed down, shaken together, and running over. When we honor God with our best, He promises abundance beyond what we can contain. In the kickoff of our new series, “Overflow,” Pastor Danny Anderson challenges us with the question: What blessings might you be missing because you’re holding back? Don’t miss this message on how living with open hands and an open heart leads to a life of overflow! Speaker: Pastor Danny Anderson
It’s almost November, and as the election approaches, tensions can be high, and we might become confused about how to approach this season as a Christ follower. How should we, as followers of Jesus, vote in the 2024 election? What does God say about our leaders? In this message, Pastor Danny Anderson challenges us to do three things regarding this election: 1) When you vote, vote like Jesus. 2) Remember your allegiance. 3) Remember the larger story. I hope you join us! Share this message, and let’s engage together! Speaker: Pastor Danny Anderson
Are you feeling overwhelmed with fear, worry, and anger? These feelings could be hinging from a lack of knowledge of God. The prophet Hosea states, “My people are being destroyed because they don’t know me.” The more you know God, the stronger your faith, hope, and love will become. Join Pastor Danny on a journey of understanding that faith casts out fear, hope fuels our future, and love, the greatest of all, reflects God’s nature. Want to grow in your faith journey? Start with knowing Him. Speaker: Pastor Danny Anderson
In a world obsessed with speed and productivity, could it be that hurry is the greatest enemy of our spiritual health? In this Espresso Shot message, Pastor Cody Johnson delves into the hidden costs of our rushed lives, showing how relentless busyness erodes our connection to God and others. He teaches us that if we can eliminate hurry from our lives, slow down, and just “be,” we can discover the peace, joy, and purpose God desires for us to live in. Speaker: Pastor Cody Johnson
Life's challenges can be overwhelming, and when suffering or pain strikes, it's easy to feel defeated or to seek the quickest way out. Yet, the Christian journey reminds us that perseverance is essential to the Christian life. God will never waste your pain. In fact, through each struggle, He is shaping you, preparing you for something far greater. Join Pastor Danny Anderson as we dive into the powerful truth that God is at work in the midst of your pain and discover how He's using your trials to build strength, resilience, and hope for the future. Speaker: Pastor Danny Anderson
Purpose—do you have it? Is your life making a difference? Join us for the final week of our "I Love My Church" series, where Pastor Danny will challenge us to discover how we’re uniquely wired and the gifts we've been given by God. We will learn how we can use them to make a lasting impact on the world around us! Speaker: Pastor Danny Anderson
The Church is the catalyst for a transformed life. Transformation begins with understanding that the gospel of Jesus not only saves us from our sins, but it keeps saving us so that we can walk in the life God has for us – to become like Jesus. Join us for week 3 of our “I Love My Church” series, as Pastor Danny Anderson reminds us that transformation begins with a renewed mindset, a fully surrendered heart, and intentional effort through practice. Speaker: Pastor Danny Anderson
The local church is the hope of the world—and it's our mission to bring that hope to life! However, to make a real impact, the church needs to be relevant in today's culture. In week two of our series, "I Love My Church," Pastor Danny Anderson dives into the Apostle Paul's letter to the church in Corinth, showing us how finding common ground with those far from Christ opens the door to sharing the life-changing message of the gospel. Don't miss this inspiring message that will help you connect with others and make a difference in your community! Speaker: Pastor Danny Anderson
The Church is a movement of God’s people called out for a specific purpose. Here at Emmanuel Church, our purpose is lived out in our relentless pursuit of people far from God. While many of us deeply desire to see people come to Christ, several obstacles hold us back from going “all-in.” Obstacles such as uncertainty about how to begin a conversation, a lack of urgency, or feeling insecure about our Bible knowledge. In Week 1 of our series, “I Love My Church,” Pastor Matt Scobell draws from Matthew 9 to reveal the simplicity of Jesus’ method for reaching the lost: eat, pray, and love. Speaker: Pastor Matt Scobell
"Is God enough for me?" Of course, He is, right? We live in a world that tells us that more money, more sex, more power, more fame, more [fill in the blank] will finally satisfy you, and you will finally have enough. In the second week of "Mirror Mirror," Pastor Cody Johnson argues, "If God is not enough for you, then you will spend your entire life searching for what is." What would your life look like if you gave God your thoughts, your trust, and your everything? Join us in this life-changing journey to find true fulfillment in our journey with Christ! Speaker: Pastor Cody Johnson
“Am I enough?” That question haunts most of us. But what’s missing from that question? God. What if we asked, “Am I enough for God?” The answer to that question may be the only answer that we will ever need. Join us for the kickoff of our new series, “Mirror Mirror,” as Pastor Danny Anderson helps to open our eyes to our identity, value, and worth in Christ! Speaker: Pastor Danny Anderson
In this teaching series, we are journeying to press a spiritual “reset” on our lives. How do we press reset, and how can we make our reset last? In this week’s message, Pastor Danny Anderson will focus on the importance of falling in love with God. “Your love for God ensures that you will stay close to God.” Do not underestimate the power of this truth. Speaker: Pastor Danny Anderson
With trials, temptations, everyday difficulties, and the enemy constantly attacking us, it is so easy for us to drift far from what God has planned for you. He created you to find life in Him that is rich and satisfying (John 10:10). In this one-week series, Pastor Danny will encourage us on how we don’t have to miss out on the abundant life that God has promised to us! Find out how you can RESET, find purpose and not drift away. Speaker: Pastor Danny Anderson
In this week's Espresso Shot, Pastor Shawn Lovejoy dives into the topic of fear and the obstacles that hold us back. Drawing from the story of the Israelites in Exodus, he explains how fear—whether it's fear of pain, failure, or loss—can paralyze us and stop us from progressing. Pastor Shawn stresses the importance of taking responsibility for what we can control and not letting fear rule our decisions. He also reminds us that, often, we're not waiting on God—God is waiting on us to make the first move. Speaker: Pastor Shawn Lovejoy
The final fight we will get into with the enemy in this series is the lie: "I could never forgive them!" We often ask the wrong question when it comes to forgiving someone who wronged us. The question is not: how much forgiveness do they deserve? The question is: how much freedom do you desire? Join us as Pastor Matt Scobell delves into a familiar story from John 8, where Jesus forgives a woman caught in adultery. In this message, we will explore the 'how' of forgiveness and uncover the freedom that forgiveness brings. The freedom you desire from hate, anger, and bitterness is closer than you think! Speaker: Pastor Matt Scobell
Many of us struggle with the feeling that God's love is overshadowed by an overwhelming disappointment in us as fallen human beings, leading to the belief that "God doesn’t like me." We often project our insecurities onto God, thinking He is disappointed in us because we are disappointed in ourselves. In week three of our series, “The Truth About Lies,” Pastor Cody Johnson reminds us that our picture of God shapes our spiritual life. Reflecting on Christ's sacrifice for us, we will learn that God's love is constant and boundless, an "ocean without shores or bottom.” Speaker: Pastor Cody Johnson
The idea that 'It gets easier' is one of the most common misconceptions in America today. This belief leads us to opt for the easy way out instead of leveraging our struggles to make a meaningful impact on the world. In the second week of our series, “The Truth About Lies,” Pastor Cody Johnson encourages us to shift our perspective from avoiding difficulties to embracing them. By facing our hardships head-on, we can use our suffering for personal growth, helping others, and fulfilling God's calling on our lives. Join us as we intentionally step into the hard. Speaker: Pastor Cody Johnson
“I have to have it all figured out.” This subtle lie from the enemy wreaks havoc on our souls. In the kickoff of our series, “The Truth About Lies,” Pastor Cody Johnson emphasizes that striving to have everything figured out leads to a life marked by dissatisfaction and, ultimately, shame and guilt. Instead, Pastor Cody calls for less figuring and more following of God's Word, urging us to relentlessly pursue Him and practice spiritual disciplines such as memorizing scripture, worship, and meditation. Speaker: Pastor Cody Johnson
Every hour, 6,000 lives end—two lives every second. As the book of James reminds us, "Life is a vapor." This fleeting reality prompts us to ask: how can we make the most out of the vapor of life we have been given? Join us as Micah McElveen, Founder and CEO of Vapor Ministries, shares insights on how we can invest our vapor to make the most significant impact on the world around us. Speaker: Micah McElveen
"I want to do what is good, but I don't. I don't want to do what is wrong, but I do it anyway." Can anyone relate? In the final week of our "Fix My _____" series, Pastor Danny explores our struggle with our misguided desires and how we can align them with God's will. In this message, we will learn three powerful tools to help fix our desires: overcoming your shame with grace, strengthening your self-control, and removing temptation from your life. Join us as we discover how to delight in the Lord and align our desires with His purpose! Speaker: Pastor Danny Anderson
The average person spends about one-third of their life at work, yet many feel detached, worried, or even miserable in their jobs. Recognizing that all work can be viewed as God's work is essential to the Christian life. By adding value every day and working wholeheartedly, we can find purpose and fulfillment in our daily work lives. In week 5 of our "Fix My _______" series, Pastor Danny will guide us in embracing job challenges with a positive mindset, understanding that even difficult tasks can be seen as rewarding and meaningful. Speaker: Pastor Danny Anderson
In today's message, we're tackling the big question: What causes financial fractures, and how can we fix them? Here's the great news: God wants you to win with money, and He gives you the ability to create wealth and manage it wisely. In week 4 of "Fix My ______," Pastor Danny shows us how to transform financial challenges into stepping stones toward achieving God-honoring financial success. Speaker: Pastor Danny Anderson
Are you a “half-glass-full” or “half-glass-empty” kind of person? Whatever person you think you are, the choice is yours either way.

Choosing a positive attitude, consuming positive inputs, and viewing difficulties as opportunities are what it takes to enhance your quality of life and transform you into the person God intends you to become. Speaker: Pastor Danny Anderson
Parenting in 2024 is complex (to say the least), but navigating it can be simpler with the right plan or blueprint. In week two of this series, we focus on… “Fix My Kids.” In this message, Pastor Matt Scobell provides the tools to streamline parenting using the analogy of building a house. With Jesus as the foundation, discipline and order as the walls, and fun, acceptance, and purpose as the roof, you have a blueprint for success in parenting! If you have any influence on the next generation, this message is for you! Speaker: Pastor Matt Scobell

Speaker: Pastor Danny Anderson With Special Guest Jackie Anderson
"Silence" and "solitude" are two words our society often devalues and overlooks. It has been said that "without solitude, it is virtually impossible to live the spiritual life." If silence and solitude are vital for an abundant Christian life, how can we incorporate them into our daily routines? Join us for the final week of our series as Pastor Danny unpacks the why and the how of a life marked by stillness. Speaker: Pastor Danny Anderson
Our world has never been more "connected," yet we're reporting feeling more disconnected than ever. Why is that? It could be due to us neglecting the habit of community. In week 3 of "Habits to Grow Your Faith," Pastor Danny Anderson gives us practical insights to encourage us to commit to community for spiritual growth. By fostering the habit of community, we will experience growth, transformation, and a deeper connection with God. "Show me your friends, and I'll show you your future." Speaker: Pastor Danny Anderson
Do you struggle to maintain a consistent and purposeful prayer life? This message is for you! In week 2 of our series “Habits to Grow Your Faith,” Pastor Danny Anderson unlocks the transformative power found when the habit of prayer is cultivated in your life. Speaker: Pastor Danny Anderson
"Your life is the sum of your habits." So, how are your habits? Specifically, your spiritual habits. Habits hold the power to make or break our spiritual growth. But how do we cultivate habits that align with godliness? As we launch into our new series, Pastor Danny Anderson will explore the habit of engaging Scripture, highlighting its ability to reshape our thoughts and, ultimately, transform our lives. Speaker: Pastor Danny Anderson
We relish in life's exhilarating, exciting moments, but we often neglect and even disdain the mundane. While it's common to celebrate grand events like weddings, graduations, or championships, the less glamorous chores of washing dishes, taking out the trash, or getting children ready for bed are often undervalued and under-appreciated. The truth is God delights in what we do secretly, and he encourages us to find joy in the simplicity of a quiet life. Join us for this Espresso Shot from Pastor Aaron Beasley as we learn that the discovery of God lies in the daily and the ordinary, not in the spectacular and the heroic. Speaker: Pastor Aaron Beasley

Is there something God is asking you to do, and are you willing to respond with obedience? Speaker: Pastor Danny Anderson

In this week’s Espresso Shot, Pastor Matt Scobell uses the wisdom of Solomon in Ecclesiastes to unlock the secret to a life of contentment. Speaker: Pastor Matt Scobell
