What captures your mind shapes your life—and what shapes your life reveals what you actually worship. This week we land on one of the most pivotal passages in all of Romans: the moment Paul shifts from doctrine to daily life. After eleven chapters of what God has done, he asks one question—now what will you do with it? The answer is a living sacrifice and a renewed mind. Not conformed to the pattern of this world, but actively, intentionally transformed. What you fill your mind with matters more than you think.
In just three verses, one of the shortest psalms in Scripture maps the path from restlessness to rest. This week we sit with Psalm 131 and trace three movements of a soul finding peace: rejecting pride, resting in God, and living with hope. Pride—in our hearts, our eyes, and our pursuits—is what keeps us striving. But the weaned child doesn't strain or demand; it simply rests in its mother's presence. That's the picture David paints of a soul at peace with God. Not passive. Not defeated. Just deeply, quietly anchored.
Blessed isn't just a feeling—it's a direction. Psalm 1 opens the entire book of Psalms with a simple but searching question: which way are you headed? This week we walk through three tests that reveal the trajectory of your life—where you're walking, where you're standing, and where you're sitting. The person who is truly blessed isn't just avoiding the wrong things; they're deeply rooted in the right One. Like a tree planted by streams of water, a life grounded in God's Word doesn't just survive—it flourishes.
One of the most anguished cries in all of Scripture—and Jesus quoted it from the cross. This week we open Psalm 22 on three levels: as David's personal cry, as a prophetic picture of the crucifixion written a thousand years before it happened, and as a mirror for our own moments of feeling forsaken. Feeling abandoned by God doesn't mean He has left—it often means He is forming you. And if He got the cross right down to the last detail, He's got your future right too. Jesus cried "It is finished" so your story could begin. Are you living like it has?
It's easy to wonder if God is paying attention—to your specific life, your specific struggles, your specific story. Psalm 139 answers that question with overwhelming clarity. This week we look at four reasons we know God cares about the details: He knows you completely, He is always with you, He personally created you, and His thoughts toward you outnumber the grains of sand. You are not a number. You are not overlooked. And the God who knows every detail of your life is working in all of it—to correct, encourage, heal, and bring you home.
Has God given up? Abandoned His people? Lost control of the story? Romans 11 answers with a resounding no. This week we see three movements in God's unfinished work: His grace preserving a remnant when all seemed lost, His mercy expanding to include the nations, and His wisdom so vast and unsearchable that the only right response is worship. God hasn't dropped the thread. He never has. From him and through him and to him are all things—and that changes everything about how we trust Him with ours.
Someone told you about Jesus. And someone told them. This week in Romans 10, Paul traces the beautiful chain of how faith spreads—from God sending, to someone going, to someone hearing, to someone believing. We are that link in the chain for the people around us. Not everyone will receive it, but God never stops reaching—arms stretched out even to the disobedient, even to those who weren't looking for Him. So neither should we. Keep praying. Keep inviting. Keep loving. Keep sharing.
Salvation isn't complicated, but we have a way of making it feel that way. This week in Romans 10, Paul lays out three simple challenges that cut through the noise: pray for the people around you, understand that God's way is simpler than you think, and stop letting what you know in your head stay out of your heart. The message isn't far off. It's not hidden. It's on your lips and in your heart—everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.
Is God unjust? Did He make a mistake with you? Does He actually love you? This week we finish the questions Romans 9 forces us to wrestle with — and the answers are better than we might expect. You are not an accident. You are not forgotten. You are His workmanship, chosen to be His people. But Romans 9 ends with one final question that cuts deepest of all: are you trusting in Christ, or in yourself? Jesus is either the cornerstone you build your life on, or the stone you trip over. No one stays neutral.
When life is hard and things don't make sense, the questions surface fast—is God unjust? Did He make a mistake with me? Does He actually love me? This week we sit with some of the most challenging verses in Romans and work through three of the hardest questions we ask about God. The answer Paul keeps coming back to isn't a formula or a quick fix—it's the character of God Himself. He is not unjust. He is not arbitrary. He is rich in mercy, and His steadfast love never ceases.
You don't get into God's family by race. You don't get in by works. You never have. This week we step into Romans 9 and trace a thread that runs all the way from Genesis to the cross—God's plan of salvation has always operated by grace, not bloodline or effort. Paul writes with a broken heart for his own people, and out of that grief comes one of Scripture's clearest declarations: it's not the children of the flesh who are children of God, but the children of the promise. Whoever you are, wherever you're from—everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.
Session 4: The Christian life is not easy, but it’s worth it. And you are not meant to fight alone.
Session 3: The enemy is real, relentless, and dirty. But we do not fight for victory—we fight from victory.
Session 2: The fight requires preparation. You won’t survive without training, discipline, and guidance.
Session 1: Starting is the hardest part, but passivity is not an option. Men must recognize the spiritual fight they’re in and step into it.
No charge can stand against you. No condemnation remains. No circumstance—no matter how dark, how painful, or how long it lasts—can cut you off from the love of God. This week we close out Romans 8 with three truths that anchor the soul: God has justified you, Christ is interceding for you right now, and nothing in all creation has the power to separate you from His love. Whatever you're facing today, you are not abandoned—you are more than a conqueror through Him who loves you.
Romans 8:28 is one of the most quoted verses in the Bible—and one of the most misunderstood. It doesn't say everything is good, or that God causes every painful thing. It says that for those who love God, He is actively working all things together for good. This week we unpack three ways God is working in your life right now: weaving every circumstance toward your good, sanctifying you into the image of His Son, and proving over and over again that He is for you. Whatever you're walking through, God hasn't stepped away—He's at work.
Whatever you're carrying right now, it's not the end of the story. This week we look at four promises God gives us in the middle of suffering—future glory that outweighs every hard moment, a creation made completely new, full redemption of everything broken, and a Holy Spirit who intercedes for us when we don't even have words to pray. Romans 8 doesn't promise a pain-free life. It promises that the best is still ahead—and that you're not walking toward it alone.
You're not just forgiven—you're family. This week we continue in Romans 8 and unpack what it actually means to be a child of God. The Spirit leads us to fight sin, cry out to God as Father, and live as heirs of everything He owns—even when life is hard. Suffering doesn't mean something's gone wrong; it means you belong to Him. If you've been living like an orphan when God has made you a son or daughter, this message is for you.
No condemnation. A renewed mind. The same Spirit that raised Jesus from the dead—living in you. Romans 8 is one of the most powerful chapters in Scripture, and this week we unpack why being in Christ changes everything. A new way to walk, a new way to think, a new life to live—not based on how well you perform, but on what Christ has already done.
If you've ever loved God and still struggled with sin in the same breath, you're in good company—you're in Romans 7. This week we sit with one of the most honest passages in all of Scripture, where Paul describes the tension every believer feels: a heart that genuinely wants to do what's right, and a flesh that keeps pulling the other way. Freedom in Christ doesn't mean the fight disappears—it means you're no longer fighting alone. The answer to your inner conflict isn't trying harder. It's turning to the One who already won.
A woman sick for 12 years. A man paralyzed for 38. A thief taking his last breaths on a cross. Jesus met every single one of them—and none of them were too far gone. This Easter, we look at one of the most remarkable moments in Scripture: a dying criminal with no good works, no religious record, and no time left—who walked into paradise the same day he met Jesus. If you've ever felt like you've waited too long, fallen too far, or used up your last chance, this message is for you. He is risen—and that changes everything.
When four friends couldn't get through the door, they cut through the roof. That kind of friendship — desperate, determined, and fueled by faith — is exactly what Jesus noticed. In this week's message, we look at the story of the paralytic and the four men who carried him, and ask a simple question: are you that kind of friend? We'll unpack four qualities of a friend who brings people to Jesus, and what it looks like to love the people in your life enough to do whatever it takes to get them to Him.
Everyone serves someone. The question isn't whether you have a master—it's who that master is. In this week's message, we dig into Romans 6 and unpack a simple but sobering truth: your master determines your direction, and your direction determines your destination. Whether you're living for sin or surrendered to God, both paths have a trajectory—and both lead somewhere real. If you've ever wondered why your life feels stuck in the same patterns, or what it actually looks like to walk in freedom, this message is for you.
Romans 6 reminds us that grace is not a loophole for sin—it’s a jailbreak. Through Jesus, the old self has died and a new life has begun. Yet many believers keep returning to the prison Christ already set them free from.
This message explores what it means to be united with Christ in His death and resurrection and why we must stop letting the old life control us. Your life isn’t a résumé—it’s a birth certificate. You are a new creation. So don’t resurrect the guy behind bars. He’s gone. You’re free—stay free.
Romans 5 contrasts two rulers and two realities that shape every human life. Through Adam, sin entered the world and death began to reign, bringing judgment and condemnation. But through Jesus Christ, grace now reigns, offering the free gift of righteousness, justification, and eternal life.
This message explores the powerful contrast between Adam and Jesus and the two realms they represent. The question isn’t whether something reigns in your life—it’s who.
In Romans 5, Paul shows that those who are justified by faith now have peace with God and a new reason to rejoice. Our joy is not rooted in circumstances, but in the hope of God’s promises, the purpose God works through our suffering, and the reconciliation we have through Jesus Christ.
This message explores how suffering produces endurance, character, and hope, and how the love of God transforms enemies into friends. Because of what Christ has done—and because He lives—we can rejoice in hope, in hardship, and ultimately in God Himself.
What do you do when God promises a future that feels impossible? In Romans 4, Abraham believed God—even when his circumstances said otherwise—and it was counted to him as righteousness.
This message explores a faith that rests not on performance, but on God’s promise; not on human strength, but on God’s power. It’s a faith anchored in Scripture and secured by the resurrection of Jesus.
When God speaks a future you can’t yet see, you can trust the One who gives life to the dead and calls into existence what does not exist.
In Romans 4, Paul looks to Abraham to show that righteousness has never been earned—it has always been credited through faith. “Abraham believed God, and it was counted to him as righteousness.”
This message reminds us that we are not justified by works, ritual, or performance, but by trusting God. A true walk of faith rests in forgiveness and lives in the righteousness of Jesus Christ.
Romans 3 confronts us with a hard truth: none of us are good enough. All have sinned and fall short of God’s glory. No amount of knowledge, effort, or religious performance can justify us before a holy God.
But the good news is better than we imagined. God has revealed a righteousness apart from the law—through faith in Jesus Christ. We are justified by grace as a gift, redeemed by His blood, and declared righteous not because of what we’ve done, but because of what Christ has done.
This message explores how the cross proves that God punishes sin fully, saves sinners freely, and remains perfectly just. If you’ve ever wrestled with not feeling “good enough,” this sermon points to the only One who is.
In Romans 3, Paul asks some of life’s biggest spiritual questions: What advantage is there to knowing God’s Word? What if people are unfaithful? What then—are we any better off? And what’s next?
This message walks through how God speaks to the world through creation, conscience, and Scripture, and why none of us can justify ourselves by knowledge or obedience alone. The law reveals our need, the prophets point to God’s promise, and the gospel declares the answer: true righteousness is found only in Jesus.
It’s a sobering look at our sin—and a hopeful reminder that we are justified not by works, but by grace through faith in Christ.
In this year’s State of the Church message, we unpack our theme for 2026: Overflow—abounding in love for God and others. Rooted in Romans 5:5, we explore what it looks like to live a life filled by the Holy Spirit and marked by overflow in every area: our personal walk, our gifts, our relationships, and our mission. We also kick off the Who’s Your One campaign, challenging each of us to intentionally share our faith and invite others into the love of Jesus.
We all want to believe we’re “good enough”—but Romans 2 confronts us with a humbling truth: every one of us is guilty before God. In this message, we explore how we try to justify ourselves—by excusing our behavior, hiding behind knowledge, or relying on religious activity—and why none of it can save us.
Only when we face the bad news honestly do we see how truly good the gospel is. This sermon invites us to stop defending ourselves, let God change our hearts, and rest in the grace that only Jesus can give.
Pastor Tony covers the righteous judgment of God from Romans 2:1-11 and reminds us of what makes the Gospel so good.
In this episode, Pastor Jeremiah covers Romans 1:18-32 examining the trades people make in life, and whether or not they are worth it.
In our opening week in the book of Romans, Pastor Jeremiah examines the Gospel and how it defines believers and what we are called to do.
In Luke 2, Mary and Joseph bring little, Simeon waits with expectation, and Anna worships faithfully—each encountering Jesus in a different way. This message explores how seasons of waiting prepare our hearts, how God fulfills His promises in His timing, and how meeting Jesus always changes how we leave. The question isn’t how you come to Jesus, but how you walk away after you’ve truly encountered Him.
In John 21, the resurrected Jesus meets His disciples back where it all began—by the sea, with an empty net and familiar doubts. Peter had failed, ran back to fishing, and carried the weight of regret. But Jesus meets him right there, restores him with grace, and calls him forward into purpose: “Follow Me.”
This message invites us to step out of comfort, stop comparing our journey to others, and fix our eyes on Jesus alone. When He restores us, He doesn’t point us backward—He leads us on.
In this week’s message we walk through John 20:19–31 and the story of Thomas to see how Jesus responds to real questions, fear, and fragile faith. Doubt isn’t the enemy of faith—it’s often the doorway to deeper trust when we bring it to Jesus instead of letting it drive us. If you’re wrestling with unanswered questions, pain, or spiritual dryness, this sermon is for you: stay in community, keep showing up, and let the presence of Christ meet you right where you are.
In John 20:1–18, Mary, Peter, and John each arrive at the tomb expecting the worst—death, confusion, and unanswered questions. Instead, Jesus meets them with life, clarity, and restoration. This message shows how we often box God into our assumptions, yet He leads us into something far greater. When we expect graves, He gives gardens—and He sends us out with a mission shaped by hope.
Every person at the cross had to decide what to do with Jesus—Pilate feared the crowd, the religious leaders clung to pride, the soldiers mocked, and two secret followers finally stepped into the light. In this week’s message from John 19, we see that the cross exposes what’s really in every heart. Jesus wasn’t a victim of circumstance but the victorious Lamb who finished the Father’s plan. When you come face to face with Him, the only question left is—how will you respond?
When Jesus stood before Pilate, the question was asked: “What is truth?” — yet the Truth Himself was standing right there. In this week’s message from John 18, we see how the world’s idea of truth constantly shifts, but the truth of Jesus remains unchanging. Pastor Jeremiah walks us through how Christ reveals the heart of God, exposes false righteousness, and offers the only real path to freedom and life.
When life feels chaotic and out of control, our natural instinct is to fight, defend, or take matters into our own hands—just like Peter in the garden. But Jesus shows us a better way. In this message from John 18, we learn how walking in God’s will transforms chaos into peace and weakness into courage. Discover what it means to trust the Father’s plan, surrender your strength, and follow Jesus even when it’s difficult.
In the final verses of John 17, Jesus prays not only for His disciples—but for every believer who would come after them. This heartfelt prayer reveals His desire for unity, love, and eternal fellowship with the Father. Discover how Christ’s love binds His people together, how true unity displays God’s glory to the world, and how His ongoing work in us continues to make His name known.
In John 17, we get a glimpse into Jesus’ most intimate prayer — a conversation between the Son and the Father before the cross. This message explores how Jesus prayed for His own glory to reflect the Father’s, for His followers to be united, protected from evil, and sanctified in truth. Discover what it means to live set apart for God’s purposes, walking in the same love, obedience, and holiness that Jesus modeled.
In John 16, Jesus reminds His followers that sorrow is never the end of the story. God transforms pain into joy, invites us into fellowship through prayer, and gives lasting victory through Christ. When we trust in Him, even our hardest moments can become places of peace, purpose, and joy.
In John 16, Jesus reminds His disciples that though the world will bring pressure and opposition, the Holy Spirit comes to guide, convict, and strengthen us. This message calls us to trust the Spirit’s leading, walk in truth, and rely on His power to live boldly for Christ—even when we don’t fully understand where He’s taking us.
Jesus calls us His friends and commands us to love one another deeply. But He also reminds us that following Him means facing a world that rejects truth. In this message from John 15, we’re challenged to expect opposition, stop seeking the world’s approval, and boldly bear witness through the power of the Spirit.
In John 15, Jesus declares, “I am the true vine.” As branches, we are called to abide in Him—our source of life, strength, and fruitfulness. True discipleship means knowing our position in Christ, trusting the vine to provide, and embracing both pruning and blessing. When we abide, our lives bear fruit, our prayers are answered, God is glorified, and we experience the fullness of His joy.
In John 14, Jesus shows us that obedience isn’t a burden but a pathway to blessing. When we love Him and keep His commands, He gives us the Helper—the Holy Spirit—to guide, remind, and strengthen us. Obedience brings the Spirit’s help, God’s presence and peace, and lasting joy that fear and circumstances cannot take away.
In John 14, Jesus comforts His disciples with promises that still hold true for us today. He reminds us that we don’t have to live with troubled hearts—we can trust Him. Our hope is found in His return, His access to the Father, His power working through us, and His faithfulness in every moment. When fear and uncertainty rise, Jesus is enough.
In John 13, we see Jesus extend grace even in His final hours—toward Judas in betrayal, His disciples in confusion, and Peter in weakness. This message reminds us that His glory is revealed at the cross, His love is shown in how we treat one another, and His grace meets us even when we fail. The question is: Will we resist His grace, or receive it and live it out?
In John 13, Jesus models true humility by washing His disciples’ feet—even the one who would betray Him. This week’s message reminds us that fellowship with Jesus begins with His service toward us, and we are called to follow His example by serving others. When we let Him cleanse us, we not only receive His grace but also learn to live with His heart.
In John 12, Jesus calls us to embrace God’s purpose, walk in His light, and seek His approval above all else. This message challenges us to stop living for the crowd, choose the cross, and let God’s glory—not man’s opinion—shape our lives.
In John 12, we see a crowd eager to witness Jesus—but Jesus invites us into something deeper. True faith isn’t just about seeing or even meeting Jesus—it’s about knowing Him. This message challenges us to move beyond the surface and embrace a life of surrender, relationship, and purpose in Christ. Are you here for the show, or are you here for Jesus?
In John 12, Mary’s act of worship filled the room with grace—while Judas’s selfishness drove it away. This week’s message invites us to examine the posture of our hearts: Are we serving, listening, and giving like Mary, or criticizing and taking like Judas? A heart turned toward Jesus changes the atmosphere. What kind of heart are you bringing with you?
After witnessing miracle after miracle, the crowd was divided—some believed, others resisted. In this message from John 11, we’re faced with the same question: What will you do with Jesus? Whether it's fear, comfort, or control holding you back, Jesus invites you to surrender fully, live for His Kingdom, and follow Him with courage—no matter the cost.
In John 11, Jesus shows us that delays aren’t denials—they’re opportunities for deeper faith and greater glory. When life feels like it’s falling apart, His timing is still perfect. This message reminds us that Jesus hears us, cares for us, and always moves with purpose—right on time.
In John 11, we see that trusting in Jesus pushes back fear, reveals God’s glory, and leads us into purpose. This message reminds us that His love gives us perspective, His guidance brings protection, and His power overcomes fear. Let’s put our fears to death—so we can truly live for Christ.
In John 10, Jesus exposes two dangerous lies in our faith journey: false security and false insecurity. This message challenges us to stop trusting our feelings or expectations and start resting in the truth of God’s promises. Whether you're standing in overconfidence or drowning in doubt—Jesus still invites you into His truth, promise, and lasting security.
In John 10, Jesus reveals Himself as the Good Shepherd—one who knows you by name, goes before you, and lays down His life for you. This message reminds us that we’re not alone: you can hear God’s voice, and you can trust His leadership. When you follow the Shepherd, He will lead you to life, peace, and purpose.
In John 10, Jesus declares Himself the only true door—the way to salvation, security, and abundance. This message challenges us to reject false paths, discern the voice of the Good Shepherd, and step fully into the life Jesus offers. Are you truly living in the abundance Christ came to give, or just surviving?
In John 9, Jesus heals a man born blind—and the ripple effect reveals much more than a miracle. This week’s message explores how belief often begins with simple understanding, but always comes at a cost. As crowds doubt, leaders resist, and fear silences, one man boldly chooses to believe—and worship. What’s keeping you from fully seeing Jesus for who He is?
In John 8, Jesus calls us to more than just belief—He invites us to abide in His Word, walk in truth, and experience true freedom. This message explores the shift from lies to truth, and from slavery to freedom, as we learn what it means to live fully surrendered to Christ.
In a world filled with darkness, Jesus boldly declares, “I am the light of the world.” This message from John 8:12–30 reminds us that darkness leads to sin and death, but the light of Christ leads to forgiveness and life. Discover what it means to follow the Light, live with a heavenly mindset, and walk daily in the truth that sets you free.
In John 8, a woman caught in sin is brought before Jesus—but instead of condemnation, she finds grace. This week’s message challenges us to reflect on the voices we listen to and the posture we take toward others. Are you quick to judge or ready to extend grace like Jesus? Discover how truth, judgment, and grace work together to rewrite our story.
In this message from John 7, we look at Jesus’ bold declaration during the Feast of Tabernacles and what it means for believers today. Learn how the promise of “rivers of living water” speaks of the Holy Spirit, and discover the evidence of His power, fruit, and gifts flowing through your life to bless others.
In this message from John 7, we’re invited to lift our eyes beyond the temporary and step into a greater vision—one shaped by God’s Kingdom and glory. Jesus challenges the crowd, His disciples, and even His own family to stop settling for short-sighted views and instead pursue eternal purpose.
Through Jesus’ example, we learn to:
- Refuse shallow ambition
- Know who we're truly following
- Adopt a Kingdom mindset
- Fix our eyes on the eternal
Don’t settle for what’s immediate. Pursue a vision rooted in something greater—something eternal.
The resurrection of Jesus isn’t just a moment in history—it’s an invitation to transformation. In this powerful Easter message, we unpack Romans 6:4 and the call to newness of life. Through Christ’s death and resurrection, we’re invited to die to our old ways and truly live—fully alive, fully free, and made new.
You must die...
So that you can truly live.
Then, and only then, you can walk in newness of life.
This is the hope of Easter. This is the power of the resurrection.
When the teaching gets tough and the crowd starts thinning out, the question remains: Will you follow or walk away? In this week’s message from John 6, we explore the moment when Jesus’ followers were faced with a hard truth—and had to choose between comfort and commitment. Jesus isn’t just a giver of life; He is the life we need. Real discipleship means more than showing up—it means believing, trusting, feeding on His Word, and sharing Him with the world.
Storms in life are inevitable—but how we walk through them makes all the difference. In this message, we learn five key lessons from Jesus calming the storm, including the truth that a storm with Jesus is better than a kingdom without Him. Discover how His presence, voice, and power don’t just help us survive life’s storms—they help us grow through them.
What do you do when the need is greater than the resources? In the miraculous feeding of the 5,000, Jesus not only meets the need—He exceeds all expectations. This week, we’ll explore how Jesus sees our needs, invites us to serve, and transforms the little we have into more than enough. When placed in His hands, everything becomes better. Are you trusting Him to do more than you expect?
equal with the Father, offers eternal life to those who believe, and presents five powerful witnesses to confirm His identity. Yet, many refused to believe. This week, we’ll examine why faith requires hearing, believing, and responding—and how Jesus exposes the root of unbelief. Are you ready to move from doubt to faith?
Are you stuck waiting for a breakthrough? In John 5, Jesus meets a man who has been waiting for healing for 38 years—and changes everything with just a word. This week, we’ll uncover six truths about faith, doubt, and obedience. No matter where you are—waiting, struggling, or stepping into something new—Jesus is calling you to something better. Will you trust Him and take the next step?
Faith isn’t just personal—it’s meant to grow and impact others. This week, we see how one man’s trust in Jesus led to his entire household believing. Faith seeks, stretches, stands, and ultimately spreads. Are we trusting God at His word or waiting for Him to act our way? Join us as we explore the power of true faith.
In this week’s message, “Look and See,” we are challenged to shift our focus from the physical to the spiritual. Using the story of the Samaritan woman and Jesus' interaction with her, we see how Jesus transforms lives and sends us to do the work of God.
Jesus tells His disciples, "My food is to do the will of Him who sent me," teaching us that serving God brings fulfillment and eternal reward. As He encourages His followers to see the fields ready for harvest, we are reminded of the joy, purpose, and partnership in serving God's mission.
Join us as we learn to see the world through Jesus' eyes, with hearts ready to share His message of salvation.
This week, we explore John 4:1-28 and the powerful encounter between Jesus and the Samaritan woman at the well. We see how Jesus pursues relationship, reveals the deeper issues of the heart, and offers living water—true fulfillment found only in Him.
Sin leaves us thirsty, but Jesus satisfies completely. His mercy, wisdom, and grace transform lives, just as they did for the woman at the well. When we truly encounter Him, we can't help but share Him with others. Join us for this life-giving message!
This week at CityView Jared dives into John 3:22-36, where John the Baptist reminds his disciples—and us—of our God-given assignments. As Jesus' influence grows, John humbly embraces his role, declaring, “He must increase, but I must decrease.”
This message challenges us to find joy in our God-given purpose, remain faithful in our changing assignments, and recognize that true life is found in Christ alone. Join us as we explore humility, purpose, and the ultimate authority of Jesus.
At our annual State of the Church, Pastor Jeremiah shared his vision for 2025 at CityView and our theme for the year: Become More Like Jesus.
