Summer on the Mount — Week 5: Voices of the House | Matthew 6:1–18
Texts: Matthew 6:1–18; Matthew 5:16; Colossians 3:3–4; Matthew 6:12, 14–15
What does it look like to live for the Father instead of the approval of people?
In this special Voices of the House Sunday, Sony Thelusca, Jonathan Garcia, and Fernando Rodriguez continue our Summer on the Mount series by helping us listen to Jesus’ words in Matthew 6. Together, these messages show that Kingdom righteousness is not about performance, platform, or applause. It is about living faithfully before God, pointing people to Jesus, and becoming the kind of people who extend the mercy we have received.
Sony reminds us that the Father sees what is done in secret. The hidden life is not unseen—it is seen by the One who matters most. Jonathan helps us see that visible faith is not the problem; the question is whether our lives point people to the Father or back to ourselves. And Fernando reminds us that forgiveness is not something we earn, but a gift Jesus gives—and forgiven people become forgiving people.
If you have been living for recognition, trying to manage your image, or carrying bitterness that Jesus is inviting you to release, this message is a call back to the Father who sees, the Son who saves, and the mercy that transforms us from the inside out.

Summer on the Mount — Week 4: Whole Hearts | Matthew 5:21–48
Texts: Matthew 5:21–48
Jesus does not just want better habits. He wants whole hearts.
In Week 4 of Summer on the Mount: A Better Way to Be Human, Pastor Kevin continues through the Sermon on the Mount and teaches from Matthew 5:21–48, where Jesus talks about anger, lust, truth-telling, retaliation, and enemy love.
But Jesus is not giving random commands or simply making the rules harder. He is moving beneath the surface. He is showing us that sin is not only an action problem—it is a heart-formation problem. What shows up in our lives reveals what is being formed in our hearts.
This message invites us to ask a deeper question: not only “What did I do?” but “What is being formed in me?” Jesus exposes the roots beneath the action, redirects the reflexes of the Kingdom, and calls us into the wholeness of the Father.
If you have been trying to manage the outside while hiding the inside, this message points to the mercy of Jesus, who comes near to restore us from the inside out.

Summer on the Mount — Week 3: Deeper Than Rule-Keeping | Matthew 5:17–20
Texts: Matthew 5:17–20
What does Jesus mean when He says He came not to abolish the Law, but to fulfill it?
In Week 3 of Summer on the Mount: A Better Way to Be Human, Pastor Kevin teaches from Matthew 5:17–20, one of the hinge passages in the Sermon on the Mount. Before Jesus talks about anger, lust, truth-telling, retaliation, and enemy love, He shows us how to understand His relationship to the Law and the Prophets.
This message helps us avoid two opposite mistakes: lawlessness and legalism. Jesus does not lower the standard and make obedience optional, but He also does not hand us a new system of religious performance. Instead, Jesus fulfills the story, honors the Word, and forms in His people a righteousness that goes deeper than outward rule-keeping.
If you have ever imagined God measuring your life with a spiritual scoreboard, this message points to better news: Jesus fulfilled what we could not fulfill, forgives what we could not fix, and gives us His Spirit to form in us the life we could never produce on our own.

Summer on the Mount — Week 2: Salt and Light: The Visible Kingdom | Matthew 5:13–16
Texts: Matthew 5:13–16
Jesus does not bless us so we can disappear. He blesses us so His Kingdom becomes visible.
In Week 2 of Summer on the Mount: A Better Way to Be Human, Pastor John continues through the Sermon on the Mount and teaches from Matthew 5:13–16, where Jesus calls His people the salt of the earth and the light of the world.
This message shows that Kingdom identity comes before Kingdom activity. Jesus does not say, “Try to become salt” or “Try to become light.” He says, “You are.” The people Jesus blesses are the people Jesus sends into the world as a visible sign of the Kingdom.
If you have ever wondered how ordinary faithfulness can make an invisible God visible in a visible world, this message is a reminder that a restored life becomes a visible witness. Salt creates thirst. Light gives direction. And good works point beyond us to the Father.

Summer on the Mount — Week 1: The Upside-Down Good Life | Matthew 5:1–12
Texts: Matthew 5:1–12
What if the life the world calls blessed is not actually the good life?
In Week 1 of Summer on the Mount: A Better Way to Be Human, Pastor Kevin begins walking through the Sermon on the Mount by looking at the Beatitudes. Before Jesus teaches about anger, desire, prayer, money, anxiety, or obedience, He begins with blessing. He answers the question everybody is asking in some form: Who is really living the good life?
This message shows that the Beatitudes are not a ladder to climb so we can earn God’s favor. They are an announcement that the Kingdom has come near. Jesus blesses people the world does not know what to do with: the poor in spirit, those who mourn, the meek, the hungry, the merciful, the pure in heart, the peacemakers, and the persecuted.
If you have been chasing a version of blessing built on success, control, comfort, image, or comparison, this message is an invitation to let Jesus redefine the good life—and to come to Him honestly, poor in spirit, hungry for righteousness, and ready to receive.

The God Who Sees the Overlooked | Genesis 29:30–35; 49:29–31
Texts: Genesis 29:30–35; Genesis 49:29–31; Matthew 1:1–3; Revelation 5:5
What do you do with the pain of not being chosen?
In this powerful standalone message, Pastor Kevin walks through Leah’s story and shows how God works through overlooked people, wounded places, and stories marked by rejection. Leah was present, but not preferred. She was in the family, but living with the ache of comparison. And yet the God of Scripture saw what others overlooked.
This message traces the movement from Leah’s pain, to Judah’s birth, to Jacob’s final words, and ultimately to Jesus—the Lion of the tribe of Judah—who entered the rejected place to redeem rejected people. It is a reminder that human preference does not determine divine purpose, and being overlooked by people does not mean you have been overlooked by God.
If you have ever felt passed over, unseen, unchosen, or defined by rejection, this message points you to the God who sees, remembers, and writes redemption through the very places others dismissed.

The Freedom We Find Together | Father’s Day + Small Group Sunday
Texts: Exodus 6:6–7; Ephesians 1:17–18
Every family has patterns.
Some are funny. Some are familiar. And some are painful—patterns of fear, anger, silence, shame, isolation, or pretending everything is fine when it really is not. In this Father’s Day message, Pastor Kevin shows that the gospel is not just about being forgiven one day. It is about being brought out, set free, redeemed, and formed into a new people.
Drawing from Exodus 6 and Ephesians 1, this message reminds us that salvation can happen in a moment, but freedom is often walked out over time. You can know Jesus and still carry old patterns. You can be saved and still feel stuck. But Jesus did not come just to forgive us so we could limp through life until heaven. He came to set us free.
This Small Group Sunday message is a practical call to bring things into the light, stop trying to get free alone, and step into the kind of community where healing and freedom can grow. Because at Broad River, we believe people know God in weekend worship—but they find freedom together.

Come, Holy Spirit — Week 4: There’s Water. Why Wait? | Acts 2:1–13, 37–41
Texts: Acts 2:1–13, 37–41; Matthew 3:13; Matthew 28:18–19; Romans 6:3–4
Baptism Sunday is not a normal Sunday with a little water at the end.
In Week 4 of Come, Holy Spirit, Pastor Kevin closes the series by showing how perfectly Baptism Sunday fits with the work of the Holy Spirit. The Spirit who fills us does not leave us hidden. The Spirit who leads us does not leave us passive. The Spirit who seals us does not leave us silent. The Holy Spirit gives ordinary people courage to publicly belong to Jesus.
This message walks through Acts 2 and answers five questions people often have about baptism: why should I be baptized, what does baptism mean, how should I be baptized, who should be baptized, and when should I be baptized. Along the way, Pastor Kevin reminds us that baptism is not about religious performance or spiritual perfection. It is an outward sign of an inward decision, a public picture of the gospel, and a first step of obedience for redeemed people.
If you have trusted Jesus but kept putting off baptism, this message is a clear, joyful, biblical invitation: there’s water. Why wait?

Come, Holy Spirit — Week 3: God Keeps Us | Ephesians 1:11–14
Texts: Ephesians 1:11–14
A lot of people fear that what started well may not finish well.
In Week 3 of Come, Holy Spirit, Pastor Kevin teaches from Ephesians 1 and shows that the Holy Spirit is not only the One who fills God’s people and leads God’s people—He is the One who keeps God’s people. He is God’s seal and guarantee that what Jesus purchased, God will complete.
This message is a powerful reminder that redemption is not fragile. In Christ, believers have obtained an inheritance, been sealed with the promised Holy Spirit, and given the assurance that their future is held by the faithfulness of God—not the strength of their own grip.
If you have ever felt unfinished, insecure, or afraid you will not make it, this message points you back to the finished work of Jesus and forward to the promise God will surely complete.

Come, Holy Spirit — Week 2: Guided Into Truth | John 16:12–15
Texts: John 16:12–15; John 16:7–8; Romans 8:26; Proverbs 3:5–6
A lot of people know about the Father. They know about the Son. But when it comes to the Holy Spirit, they feel uncertain, distant, or confused.
In Week 2 of Come, Holy Spirit, Miguel Plaza teaches from John 16 and reminds us that the Holy Spirit is not a mystery to avoid, but a person to know. He is not an optional extra for redeemed people. He is the gift of the redeemed age, given to guide believers into truth, convict them with love, and lead them toward God’s purpose.
This message unpacks who the Holy Spirit is, what He does, and why following Jesus in real life is never meant to happen by human strength alone. The Spirit comforts, convicts, guides, strengthens, and helps ordinary believers take their next step of obedience.
If you have ever felt stuck, unsure, spiritually behind, or uncertain about how God leads, this message is a clear and practical invitation to be led by the Holy Spirit in everyday life.

Poured Out on All God’s People | Joel 2:28–29
Texts: Joel 2:28–29; Acts 2:14–18; Luke 24:49; John 14:16–17; Romans 8:11
A lot of people live like God saves by grace, but expects them to keep going by grit.
On Pentecost Sunday, Pastor Jose begins the new series Come, Holy Spirit by reminding us that God does not redeem His people and then leave them empty. He fills what He reclaims. The Christian life is not just a life we are commanded to live. It is a life we are empowered to live by the presence and power of the Holy Spirit.
In this message, we see Joel’s promise of devastation, return, mercy, restoration, and then the outpouring of God’s Spirit. This is not a promise for a spiritual elite. It is not for only the gifted, the visible, or the already mature. It is the promise poured out on all God’s redeemed people.
This message is an invitation to stop trying to live the redeemed life in your own strength and to receive the Spirit as God’s gift for His people.

Do You Want to Get Well? | John 5:1–15
Texts: John 5:1–15; John 1:4; John 4:10
Some questions sound unnecessary at first.
When Jesus looks at a man who has been disabled for thirty-eight years and asks, “Do you want to get well?”, it almost feels obvious. But Jesus never asks empty questions. He asks questions that expose what pain, disappointment, delay, and survival have done inside of us.
In this standalone message, Pastor Kevin walks through John 5 and shows how Jesus meets people in the places where they have gotten used to being stuck. This is not a message about blaming wounded people for their wounds. It is a message about the mercy of Jesus, who sees us, knows how long it has been, and still speaks life into places that feel resigned, guarded, numb, or closed.
This message is a call to move beyond proximity to holy things and into surrender to Jesus Himself. Because being near the pool is not the same as being open to the Savior. And when Jesus speaks, life moves.

Redeemed to Shine | How to Follow Jesus, Week 5
Texts: Matthew 5:14–16; Colossians 4:2–6; John 4:28–30, 39
A lot of people are most comfortable with a Jesus who stays private.
In Week 5, the finale of How to Follow Jesus, Pastor Kevin teaches from Matthew 5 and shows that the life of Jesus in His people is not meant to stay hidden. If Jesus has brought you near, made you part of His people, given your life purpose, and begun changing you, then sooner or later that life is going to show.
This message unpacks what it really means to shine—not by being flashy or performative, but by living with visible faithfulness, gracious speech, simple courage, and open-hearted hospitality. Jesus does not light people to hide them. He means for His goodness in us to become visible to the world around us.
If you have ever been tempted to keep your faith private, quiet, and safe, this message is a practical invitation to stop hiding and take one intentional outward step.

Redeemed to Change | How to Follow Jesus, Week 4
Texts: Romans 12:1–2; Galatians 5:16–25
A lot of people want to change, but still feel stuck.
In Week 4 of How to Follow Jesus, Pastor Kevin opens Romans 12 and shows that the gospel offers something deeper than self-improvement. Jesus does not only forgive you. He changes you. Christian transformation does not grow out of shame, pressure, or pretending. It grows out of mercy.
This message explores what it means to be remade by grace, to stop hiding what needs to come into the light, and to walk honestly with God in the real struggle of change. It also shows how repentance, surrender, and holy rhythms become places where grace does its work in us.
If you have ever felt tired of old patterns, frustrated by slow growth, or tempted to settle for appearances, this message is a clear reminder that redemption does not only forgive you—it begins to remake you.

Redeemed to Serve | How to Follow Jesus, Week 3
Texts: 1 Peter 2:9–10; Acts 1:8; Matthew 5:14–16
A lot of people understand that Jesus saves us from something. He saves us from sin, shame, darkness, and death. But the gospel also tells us what we are saved for.
In Week 3 of How to Follow Jesus, Pastor Deborah opens 1 Peter 2 and shows that redeemed people are not called into passivity. They are called into purpose. In Christ, ordinary believers are made part of a royal priesthood, filled with the Spirit, and sent into the world as witnesses.
This message makes clear that serving is more than volunteering or filling a role. It is one of the ways the church makes Jesus visible. The redeemed are not just forgiven and seated. They are forgiven and sent.
If you have ever treated church as something to consume instead of a mission to join, this message is a strong and practical invitation to step off the sidelines and offer your life to God’s purpose.

Redeemed to Belong | How to Follow Jesus, Week 2Texts: Ephesians 2:13–22; Acts 2:42–46
A lot of people know how to attend church without ever really belonging.
In Week 2 of How to Follow Jesus, Pastor Kevin teaches from Ephesians 2 and shows that when Jesus brings you near to God, He does not leave you alone. He brings you into a people. He brings you into a household. He brings you into a family.
This message unpacks the truth that following Jesus is deeply personal, but it is never private. In Christ, strangers become family, outsiders are brought near, and the church becomes more than a place you visit—it becomes a people you belong to.
If you have ever felt like you were in the room but still on the outside, this message is an invitation to stop hovering at the edge and step into the shared life Jesus died to create.

Redeemed to Know | How to Follow Jesus, Week 1
Texts: Romans 5:1–5; 2 Corinthians 5:18–21; John 17:3
A lot of people recognize Jesus. They know the name, the story, the language, and the general outline of Christianity. But recognition is not the same thing as relationship.
In Week 1 of How to Follow Jesus, Pastor Kevin opens Romans 5 and shows that following Jesus does not begin with performance, pressure, or self-improvement. It begins with reconciliation. Through Jesus, sinners are brought near, given peace with God, and welcomed into grace.
This message also shows that eternal life is not only about heaven later. It is life with God now. And that means Scripture and prayer are not religious checklists—they are the daily practices of people who have already been brought near through Christ.
If you have ever confused church familiarity with actually knowing God, this message is an invitation to move from information to communion, from distance to nearness, and from performance to peace.

Redeemed from Death | Easter Message
Texts: Luke 24:1–6; Luke 23:46, 53; 1 Corinthians 15:20–26, 54–55; Hebrews 2:15; Colossians 1:13
Death feels final. It closes stories, reshapes hopes, and teaches people to live like the ending has already been written.
In this Easter message, Pastor Kevin walks through Luke 24 and shows that the resurrection is more than comfort for grieving people. It is confrontation with the enemy of death itself. Jesus did not avoid death. He entered it fully, and then walked out of the grave in victory.
This message traces the movement from the women arriving at the tomb expecting finality, to the announcement that Christ is risen, to the life-changing truth that everything changed hands. Because of the resurrection, sin, shame, and death do not own you anymore.
Easter is not just the story that Jesus lives. It is the declaration that death has lost its grip—and in Christ, you belong to life.

The G.O.A.T. (Not the Scapegoat) | Palm Sunday Message
Texts: Mark 11:1–10; Leviticus 16; Matthew 27
Palm Sunday looked like victory—but it was pointing to something deeper.
In this powerful message, Pastor Jacinta walks through the triumphal entry of Jesus and reveals what the crowd missed. They were looking for a conquering king… but Jesus came as a sacrificial Savior.
By connecting Palm Sunday to the Day of Atonement in Leviticus 16, this message shows how Jesus fulfills both roles: the sacrifice for sin and the scapegoat who carries it away.
Through the story of Barabbas, we see the great exchange—where the guilty go free and the innocent takes their place.
This message invites you to move beyond expectations and trust the finished work of Jesus. He didn’t come to take a throne—He came to take a cross.

Jonah: The God of Second Chances – Week 3: When Mercy Offends You
Text: Jonah 4:1–11
What happens when God is merciful… to people you don’t think deserve it?
In the finale of Jonah: The God of Second Chances, Pastor Kevin walks through Jonah 4 and exposes one of the most surprising turns in the entire story—Jonah is angry, not because God judged Nineveh, but because God showed mercy.
This message reveals how it’s possible to be close to God’s work but far from God’s heart. It confronts the tension between knowing the truth about God and actually becoming like Him.
Jonah resents mercy.
God pursues Jonah’s heart.
And the story ends with a question.
This message invites us to examine what we love, what our anger reveals, and whether the grace that rescued us is reshaping us.

Jonah: The God of Second Chances – Week 2: The Second Word
Text: Jonah 3
Have you ever felt like you missed your moment?
In Week 2 of Jonah: The God of Second Chances, Pastor Kevin walks through Jonah chapter 3 and one of the most hopeful lines in Scripture: “The word of the Lord came to Jonah a second time.”
Jonah had already run. Already failed. Already made a mess.
And God speaks again.
This message explores what it means to receive a “second word” from God—not as shame, but as mercy. It challenges us to move from delay to obedience, from fear to surrender, and from feeling stuck to taking the next step.
God speaks again.
Jonah obeys.
A city turns.
And it reminds us that second chances aren’t earned—they’re given by a God who restores purpose, not just forgiveness.

Texts: Jonah 1:1–4; Jonah 1:17; Jonah 2:1–2, 9–10
Everybody wants a second chance.
Not the small kind—the real kind. The kind that comes after mistakes, regret, or seasons where we know we’ve drifted.
In Week 1 of Jonah: The God of Second Chances, Pastor Kevin opens one of the most familiar stories in the Bible and reveals that it’s not primarily about a fish—it’s about a God who relentlessly pursues people who run.
Jonah runs.
God pursues.
God rescues.
And the deep becomes a prayer room.
This message explores how running from God never leads to freedom, how God’s discipline can actually be mercy, and how the deepest moments of our lives can become places where we encounter God again.
Jonah’s story ultimately points to Jesus—the greater rescue—who entered the depths for us so that second chances could become a reality.

Love, Actually – Week 4 (Finale): Redeemed to Restore
Text: Hosea 3; 1 Corinthians 11:23–26
When love breaks… what happens then?
In the finale of Love, Actually: The Love That Restores, Pastor Kevin turns to one of the most powerful redemption stories in Scripture—the story of Hosea. It’s not sentimental. It’s not polished. It’s a picture of pursuing love, holy boundaries, and costly redemption.
Hosea reveals a restoring love that pursues first, tells the truth, holds boundaries, and pays a price to rebuild the future. Ultimately, this story points beyond itself—to Jesus, who didn’t love us from a distance but moved toward us, paid the cost, and restores what’s been broken.
On Communion Sunday, this message reminds us that restoration isn’t fantasy—it’s redemption. And the cross is the receipt.

Love, Actually – Week 3: Peace, Patterns, and the People You Choose
Texts: Genesis 24:10–14, 17–21; Romans 6:3–4
We have an entire relationship culture built around not choosing.
In Week 3 of Love, Actually: The Love That Restores, Pastor Kevin explores how discernment works in dating, relationships, and even friendships. Looking at Genesis 24 and the story of Rebekah, this message gives a clear framework for peace, patterns, and the people we allow close to us.
God does not lead His people with confusion—He leads with peace.
Discernment doesn’t just listen to words—it watches patterns.
And healthy relationships aren’t built by adding God later, but by building around Him from the start.
On Baptism Sunday, this message also reminds us that following Jesus is ultimately a choice. Baptism is our public “I will go” moment—our declaration that we belong to Christ and are walking in newness of life.
Whether you’re single, dating, married, or rebuilding after strain, this message calls you toward clarity, courage, and Kingdom-first living.

Love, Actually – Week 2: What Your Marriage Is Missing
Texts: Acts 18:1–3; Romans 16:3–5
Most marriages don’t implode. They drift.
In Week 2 of Love, Actually: The Love That Restores, Pastor Kevin explores what quietly erodes relationships—and what actually strengthens them. Looking at the marriage of Priscilla and Aquila in Acts 18 and Romans 16, this message reveals that healthy relationships are built not just on chemistry, but on shared mission and strong community.
Marriage was never meant to be two people isolated on an island. It was designed as a covenant inside a people. When couples drift into maintenance mode or isolation, even small tensions grow heavy. But when relationships are anchored in shared direction and surrounded by wise community, love strengthens instead of strains.
This message speaks to married couples, singles, and those dating—offering practical wisdom, hope, and a Gospel-centered reminder that Jesus belongs at the center of every relationship.

Love, Actually – Week 1: The Signs You Keep Ignoring
Text: 1 Kings 21
Most relational breakdowns don’t happen all at once—they happen slowly, through ignored patterns and overlooked signs.
In Week 1 of our new series Love, Actually: The Love That Restores, Pastor Kevin opens with a sobering and practical message about relational wisdom. Drawing from the story of Ahab and Jezebel in 1 Kings 21, this message explores how unhealthy dynamics form through passivity, control, and unresolved patterns—and how God often shows us warning signs long before damage is done.
This message speaks to dating relationships, marriages, friendships, and church relationships, helping listeners learn how to identify patterns, interrupt dysfunction, and move toward healthier love shaped by truth and tenderness.
Ultimately, this message reminds us that Jesus doesn’t love with control or withdrawal—He loves with grace, courage, and restoration. And He invites us to learn a new way of loving.

Vision Sunday 2026: Ransomed & Redeemed
Romans 12:1–3
Vision doesn’t begin with strategy—it begins with mercy.
On Vision Sunday, Pastor Kevin closes the Better Than New series and invites the church into God’s shaping work for the year ahead. Drawing from Romans 12, this message reframes vision not as self-improvement or pressure, but as transformation rooted in the mercies of God.
Rather than asking how we can optimize our lives, Scripture invites us to be renewed—formed from the inside out. Vision flows from redemption, not ambition. Renewal leads to discernment. And discernment draws us into shared life and shared mission.
In this message, you’ll hear the heart behind Broad River Church’s 2026 theme Ransomed & Redeemed, and a clear picture of what it looks like to be a redeemed people, a redeeming church, and a restoring presence in the places God has planted us.
Vision isn’t about predicting the future—it’s about choosing faithfulness. And it always starts with mercy.

Better Than New – Week 3: “Rooted, Equipped, Confident”
2 Timothy 3:14–17; Philippians 1:6
By late January, many people feel the same tension: I started strong… but can I keep going?
In Week 3 of Better Than New, Pastor Kevin explores what it means to continue—not perfectly, but faithfully. This message confronts the lie that spiritual growth requires constant restarting and invites us into a steadier, deeper formation.
Through Paul’s encouragement to Timothy, we see how God forms His people over time—rooting us in truth, equipping us through Scripture, and grounding our confidence not in willpower, but in God’s faithfulness.
This message will help you move past shame, resist burnout, and trust that God finishes what He starts. New doesn’t fix us—but God redeems us, forms us, and sends us again.

Better Than New – Week 2: “Abide”
John 8:31–32; Psalm 119:105
Freedom doesn’t begin with willpower—it begins with closeness.
In Week 2 of Better Than New, Pastor Kevin teaches that redemption isn’t just a moment you experience, but a relationship you remain in. After returning to Jesus, the next invitation is simple but demanding: abide. Stay. Remain. Keep showing up.
Jesus says that true discipleship starts not with achievement, but with abiding in His word. As we stay close, we begin to truly know the truth—and that truth forms us over time, bringing real freedom.
This message is for anyone who wants freedom but feels stuck, weary, or discouraged. You’ll be reminded that transformation happens at relationship pace, not through religious striving. God doesn’t polish us—He forms us as we stay close to Him.

January loves to sell us the “new you.” New calendar. New routine. New goals. But new can’t fix you—because new turns old real quick.
In Week 1 of Better Than New, we start where redemption actually begins: not with hype… but with returning. Paul says, “when one turns to the Lord, the veil is removed” (2 Corinthians 3:16). And once the veil lifts, we learn a new way to live: turn → behold → become.
This message is a call to holy rhythms (not spiritual pressure), and a reminder that transformation doesn’t come from trying harder—it comes from staying close enough for Jesus to shine light into the places that need healing (2 Corinthians 4:6).
Scripture (ESV): 2 Corinthians 3:16–4:6; Psalm 69:16–18
Big idea: You don’t become what you want—you become what you behold.

A Prayer for This Year
21 Days of Prayer Kickoff | Colossians 1:9–14
As a new year begins, the church doesn’t rush ahead—we pause to pray.
In this message, Pastor Kevin opens 21 Days of Prayer and Fasting with a grounded, pastoral prayer from Colossians 1:9–14. In a season filled with noise, pressure, and self-improvement plans, this message re-centers us on wisdom that leads to faithfulness, fruitfulness, and endurance.
Rather than chasing a better system or a stronger start, we are invited to receive what God has already done—rescuing us, transferring us into His kingdom, and shaping our lives through daily obedience.
This message sets the spiritual tone for the year ahead: before we act, we listen; before we plan, we pray; before we strive, we remember that redemption has already begun.

With Us – Week 2: “With Us in Our Fear”
Isaiah 41:10–13; Psalm 139:5
Fear is something we all know—but Advent meets our fear with a promise: God is with us.
In Week 2 of the Advent series With Us, Pastor Kevin looks at what it means to trust God’s nearness when anxiety feels loud, circumstances feel fragile, and the future feels uncertain. Through Isaiah’s words to a fearful, displaced people and David’s prayer in Psalm 139, we see that God’s answer to fear is not a pep talk—but His presence.
This message reminds us that God does not shout “fear not” from a distance. He comes close, takes us by the hand, strengthens us, helps us, and holds us steady. We are not unseen, unheld, or alone—we are hemmed in by grace.
If you’re carrying fear about your health, finances, family, or future, this message will help you hear Advent in a deeper way: Immanuel—God with us, even in our fear.

With Us – Week 1: “Where Are You?”
Genesis 3:8–11
Advent isn’t just about lights, carols, and sentiment—it’s about a God who comes looking for people who are hiding. From the very beginning of the Bible, God’s footsteps are moving toward us, not away from us.
In this first message of our Advent series With Us, Pastor Kevin takes us back to Eden, where Adam and Eve hear the sound of the Lord walking in the garden and then try to disappear among the trees. Instead of storming in with condemnation, God’s first words to fallen humanity are a question full of grace: “Where are you?”
You’ll see how hiding still shows up in our lives—through shame, fear, performance, and withdrawal—and how the heart of God has not changed: He comes near, He calls our name, and He invites us out of the bushes and back into relationship.
This message will help you hear Advent in a new way: as the fulfillment of those first footsteps in the garden—God with us in our hiding, our fear, and our distance, moving us toward hope, healing, and Gospel Hospitality.

First Things First – Week 3: “What Happens When I Give?”
2 Corinthians 9:6–11
In the finale of First Things First, Pastor Kevin takes us to one of the clearest generosity passages in Scripture—2 Corinthians 9:6–11—to show what actually happens when we give.
This isn’t about pressure; it’s about formation. Scripture teaches that giving isn’t just a financial act—it’s a spiritual shaping force. When we live open-handed instead of fear-handed, God forms us into people who trust Him first, love Him deeply, and reflect His character.
In this message, you’ll discover:
- Giving stretches your faith by teaching you to trust God more than fear.
- Giving makes you more like Jesus, the God who gives.
- Giving shapes your future through the spiritual law of sowing and reaping.
As we step toward our Legacy Offering, we’re not giving toward a budget—we’re planting seed into the future God is building in us, in our church, and around the world.

First Things First – Week 2: “Why Should I Tithe?”
Mark 10:17–27
Money is one of the clearest windows into the human heart. In Week 2 of First Things First, Pastor Kevin teaches on one of the most foundational practices in Scripture: the tithe.
Through the story of the rich young ruler, Jeremiah’s warning about our hearts, and Malachi’s call to return to God, we learn that tithing isn’t about losing money—it’s about ordering our lives around trust. The tithe brings our finances under God’s leadership, breaks the power of fear and self-reliance, and opens us to the freedom of living in God’s design.
This message helps us understand why the tithe matters, what Scripture actually teaches, and how putting God first transforms more than our giving—it transforms us.
Tithing is not about what God wants from you.
It’s about what God wants for you.

Pastor Kevin unpacks Jeremiah 17 and the story of Elijah and the widow to show how God’s provision often meets us on the other side of obedience.
If you’re looking for clarity, peace, and a rooted life in a chaotic season, this message will help you choose your source before you face your season.

When the End Is Really the Beginning – Week 5: “The Eternal Kingdom”
Revelation 21:1–6, 22:1–5
The story doesn’t end with destruction—it ends with renewal.
In the series finale of When the End Is Really the Beginning, Pastor Kevin unpacks the final vision of Revelation: heaven and earth made one. The Lamb reverses everything Adam lost, and the story that began in a garden ends in a city filled with God’s presence.
This message reminds us that eternity doesn’t start later—it’s already forming us now. This life isn’t a waiting room for heaven; it’s a workshop for reigning.
You’ll be encouraged to live with the culture of heaven—choosing holiness over compromise, stewardship over selfishness, and worship over worry.
The good news of the end times? Of His Kingdom, there will be no end.

When the End Is Really the Beginning – Week 4: “The Bridegroom Returns”
Revelation 19:1–16
Revelation 19 lifts us from Babylon’s fall to the wedding of the Lamb—from funeral to feast. Heaven’s loud word over history is “Hallelujah.”
Pastor Kevin shows that Jesus’s return is not an evacuation plan but an encounter: the Bridegroom, Faithful and True, comes in victory, and His Word cuts through deception.
This hope doesn’t fuel timelines; it purifies our lives. Readiness isn’t getting the timeline right—it’s keeping your heart near.
Worship becomes resistance as we live now like people headed to a wedding. Come, Lord Jesus.

Baptism Sunday: Grace Gives You a New Address
Romans 6:1–11, Revelation 7:13–14
Baptism isn’t just symbolic—it’s a declaration that grace has changed your address.
In this special Baptism Sunday message, Pastor Kevin steps out of the Revelation series to show how the same story of redemption, restoration, and renewal continues in the waters of baptism. Drawing from Romans 6 and Revelation 7, this message reveals what happens when grace moves in—guilt loses its power, shame loses its voice, and you begin living from a new location: the country of grace.
You’ll be reminded that baptism pictures death and resurrection—burial of the old self and rising to new life in Christ. Grace doesn’t just forgive; it relocates you. It gives you a new name, a new identity, and a new home.
This message will renew your gratitude for God’s grace and invite you to live as someone who has truly moved—from guilt to grace, from striving to rest, from death to life.

When the End Is Really the Beginning – Week 3: “Live Sealed, Not Scared”
Revelation 7:1–4, 9–12
The seal of the Spirit is stronger than the mark of the beast.
In Week 3 of When the End Is Really the Beginning, Pastor Kevin teaches from Revelation 7 and shows how the book of Revelation is not a manual for fear—but a portrait of faith.
While many people focus on the “mark of the beast,” Revelation 7 shows us a different picture: God’s people sealed by the Spirit. The seal of God is His way of saying, “This one belongs to Me.”
This message unpacks the difference between being marked by the world and sealed by the Spirit—between fearful allegiance and faithful belonging. Through Scripture and practical insight, you’ll see that the Spirit’s seal is not a temporary label but a permanent identity of love and security in Christ.
Pastor Kevin reminds us that saints are never described as “marked,” only as “sealed.” When you know who you belong to, you can stand with peace even in chaotic times.
This message will strengthen your confidence in the Spirit’s power and help you live as a sealed witness for Christ in your home, workplace, and city. The end is not about fear and control—it’s about belonging and love. The end is really the beginning.

When the End Is Really the Beginning – Week 2: “The Lamb Has The Last Word”
Revelation 5 and 12:11
Revelation doesn’t show us chaos first—it shows us Christ.
This week, Pastor Kevin continues When the End Is Really the Beginning with one of the most stunning scenes in all of Scripture: the Lion who conquers as the Lamb. In Revelation 5, John weeps because no one can open the scroll—until he hears, “Behold, the Lion of Judah has conquered.” But when he turns, he sees a Lamb, slain but standing. That moment redefines power, showing that victory in God’s kingdom comes through sacrifice, not domination.
Pastor Kevin also clears up two common misunderstandings—the “antichrist” and the beasts—and shows how Revelation 12:11 gives us a framework for how the Church overcomes today: by the blood of the Lamb, by the word of our testimony, and by lives laid down in love.
You’ll discover how the Lamb’s people are already a multi-ethnic kingdom of priests who carry His presence into ordinary places. And you’ll see how “beast-logic” and “Lamb-logic” collide in our everyday lives—at home, at work, online, and in our city.
This message will strengthen your faith and remind you that our hope is not in identifying beasts, but in following the Lamb who has already won. The end is not the beasts having the last word; the Lamb has the last word. And the end is really the beginning.

When the End Is Really the Beginning – Week 1: “The Lamb Wins”
Revelation 1:12–18
The book of Revelation doesn’t begin with beasts, bowls, or fear—it begins with Jesus alive and reigning.
This week, Pastor Kevin launches a brand-new series from the book of Revelation called When the End Is Really the Beginning. In a world filled with anxiety about the “end times,” this message brings clarity instead of confusion and faith instead of fear. Revelation was never written to make believers panic; it was written to make us faithful.
Through this opening vision of the risen Christ—eyes like fire, voice like rushing waters, holding the keys of death and Hades—we discover that Revelation isn’t about decoding puzzles; it’s about revealing Jesus.
You’ll learn how to approach this mysterious book with humility, Scripture-based discernment, and hope. Pastor Kevin reminds us that the Gospel shapes our view of the end: fear-based eschatology paralyzes, but faith-based eschatology mobilizes.
This message will help you lift your eyes from speculation to the Savior who says, “Fear not. I am the First and the Last.” The end isn’t doom—it’s renewal. The Lamb wins. The end is really the beginning.

MOVE – Week 10: “Finish Well”
Acts 20:17–38
What does it take to finish well?
In Acts 20:17–38, Paul shares a farewell message with the Ephesian elders, showing us that the Gospel doesn’t just need people who start strong—it needs disciples who endure to the end.
This week, Pastor Kevin closes out the MOVE series by pointing us to three anchors that help us keep moving: Jesus at the center, the Spirit’s leading even when it costs, and a love for the Church that Jesus bought with His own blood.
This message will encourage you to see how God still moves through consecrated lives—not just the celebrated ones. If Paul could finish his course with joy, we can too. The Gospel is still moving in Lower Fairfield County, and God is calling us to be a church that doesn’t just start… but finishes well.

MOVE – Week 9: “The Breakthrough in Antioch”
Acts 11:19–30 and 12:25–13:3God’s breakthrough in Antioch shows us that the Gospel doesn’t just move through the famous names—it moves through ordinary people who say yes.
This week in Acts 11:19–30 and 12:25–13:3, Pastor Kevin walks us through a turning point in the book of Acts. In a diverse and broken city, God plants the first multi-ethnic church. And it doesn’t start with Peter, Paul, or Barnabas—it starts with unnamed believers who dared to cross cultural lines with the good news of Jesus.
The Gospel has power all by itself. It tears down walls, creates new identity, and calls people into mission. Barnabas arrives to encourage, the Spirit speaks, and Antioch becomes a launchpad for global Gospel movement.
This message will encourage you to see how God still moves today—through the consecrated, not the celebrated. If He can use ordinary men and women in Antioch, He can use you right here in Lower Fairfield County. Say yes, break barriers, and step into a missional vision that changes lives.

MOVE: Week 8 — When Everything Changes
Acts 9:1–22 | Pastor Kevin Mullins
In Acts 9, we meet Saul—a man convinced he was doing everything right, only to be stopped in his tracks by the risen Jesus. In a single moment, Saul’s life shifted from hostility to hope, from persecutor to preacher. His story reminds us that when Jesus shows up, everything changes.
In this message, Pastor Kevin unpacks the four elements of Saul’s conversion—and how they point to what happens when any heart truly encounters Jesus:
- Encounter that stops you — God breaks in right where you are.
- Dependence that changes you — learning surrender in the dark.
- Embrace that restores you — community and welcome before you’ve “proven” anything.
- Empowerment that sends you — the Spirit turning you from brokenness to purpose.
The Gospel doesn’t just give information—it moves you. And like Saul, your story can be interrupted by grace and released into a Spirit-empowered future.

Enduring Promises: God’s Vision for Your Life
2 Peter 1:3–4 | Pastor Kevin Mullins
On Small Group Sunday, Pastor Kevin shared how God’s promises aren’t just inspirational words to admire—they’re doors meant to be walked through. Drawing from 2 Peter 1:3–4 and Exodus 6, this message explores the four promises that shape both God’s vision for His people and the mission of Broad River Church: Know God, Find Freedom, Discover Purpose, Make a Difference.
📖 In this message, you’ll learn:
- Why God has already given you everything you need for life and godliness.
- How His promises serve as pathways into a new kind of life.
- Why transformation happens best in community, not isolation.
- How Freedom Groups and Re|engage provide opportunities to step into God’s plan this fall.
This is more than a vision for our church—it’s God’s pathway for you. Don’t just admire His promises. Step into them.

We Need Each Other
John 13–17 | Pastor Kevin Mullins
This week, Pastor Kevin shares a pastoral message that goes beyond inspiration and speaks as both a warning and an encouragement: we were not made to live life alone.
As our church prepares for Small Group Sunday, this message unpacks why biblical community is not optional—it’s essential. Drawing from Jesus’ final conversation with His disciples (John 13–17), we discover five truths that remind us of our deep need for one another.
📖 In this message, you’ll learn:
- Why the first problem in the Bible wasn’t sin—it was solitude.
- How relationships provide care, encouragement, and strength in times of need.
- Why partnering together allows us to make a greater difference than we ever could alone.
- The power of accountability and protection when we let others into our lives.
- How prayer covering from others sustains us in moments of weakness.
In a culture of isolation, this sermon is a call back to God’s design: that we would live in authentic community, caring for one another, protecting one another, and lifting one another up in prayer.
As Pastor Kevin reminds us: If you’re the only one who knows your secrets, you’re in trouble. You don’t have to tell everybody, but you need to tell somebody.

The Progress of Sacrifice
Ephesians 5:1–2 | Pastor Kevin Mullins
On this Back-to-School Sunday, Pastor Kevin shares a timely word for students, parents, teachers, and the whole church family: sacrifice isn’t losing ground—it’s how we move forward.
Through the imagery of the Old Testament sacrifices—the burnt offering, the peace offering, and the drink offering—this message calls us into a life of total commitment to God, joyful community with others, and a daily outpouring of love for the world around us.
In this message, you’ll discover:
- Why sacrifice is not about loss, but the very way we experience progress in God’s Kingdom.
- How complete dedication to God leads to true freedom.
- The importance of living in authentic community instead of isolation.
- The joy and purpose found in pouring ourselves out for others.

Unleashing the Power Within – Our Inheritance in Christ and the Gifts of the Holy Spirit
John 14:12; 1 Corinthians 12:4–7; Ephesians 4:11–13; Romans 11:29; 1 John 4:9–12; Colossians 2:9; 1 Corinthians 14:1 | Deborah Taylor
On this powerful Baptism Sunday, set in the final week of 21 Days of Prayer and Fasting, Deborah Taylor delivers a stirring message about the spiritual inheritance that belongs to every believer.
We live in a world that often prizes self-reliance, but in Christ, we are invited to live in complete dependence on God and to walk in the gifts of His Spirit. These gifts are not reserved for the “super-spiritual” or the leaders of old—they are given freely to every follower of Jesus as an expression of His love and a calling to serve.
In this message, you’ll discover:
- Why the gifts of the Holy Spirit are for all believers—including you.
- How these gifts are our divine inheritance, freely given to equip us for “greater things.”
- The purpose of spiritual gifts: to build up the Body of Christ and advance God’s Kingdom.
- Practical steps to activate, grow, and serve others with the gifts God has entrusted to you.
As we continue in prayer and fasting, Deborah reminds us that the same Spirit who raised Jesus from the dead is at work within us—empowering us to walk in His gifts and calling us into a life of surrender, obedience, and Kingdom impact.

Face to Face: The Friendship, Protection, and Glory of God
Exodus 33:7–11, 18–23 | Pastor Jacinta Mullins
What does it mean to speak with God “face to face, as a man speaks to his friend”? In this powerful message, Pastor Jacinta unpacks Moses’ extraordinary relationship with God—marked by intimacy, bold prayer, and a longing to see His glory.
Through Exodus 33, we see that friendship with God transforms everything: His hand covers us in danger, His glory carries a holy weight, and His presence leaves us forever changed. Pastor Jacinta challenges us to move beyond a distant, formal faith into an unveiled, radiant relationship with the Lord—where prayer is not a last resort, but the very power source of our lives.
Whether you feel far from God or hungry for more, this message invites you to draw near, experience His protection, and step into the kind of intimacy that leaves you glowing with His presence.

The Principle of First
Genesis 1:1 | Pastor Kevin Mullins & Justin Reyes
How do you begin again with God? In this message kicking off 21 Days of Prayer and Fasting, Pastor Kevin and Justin Reyes walk us through the “Principle of First”—a biblical rhythm that reshapes everything when we live it out.
From Genesis to Jesus, God has always been a "first things first" kind of God. When we give Him the first of our time, our thoughts, our finances, and our worship, we’re not performing—we're positioning. This message challenges us to reorder our lives around what (and who) matters most, offering practical ways to live a first-fruit kind of faith in every season.
Whether you're starting fresh or seeking to realign, this word will inspire you to go all in—because when you put God first, He blesses the rest.

In this message, Pastor Kevin unpacks the story of Philip and the Ethiopian eunuch—a powerful reminder that the Gospel moves through obedience, not convenience. Sometimes the Spirit leads us off the beaten path so we can meet the one. When we follow God’s prompting—even into the wilderness—we discover divine appointments, surprising conversations, and fresh opportunities to speak the good news of Jesus.
Whether you feel stuck, scattered, or stirred, this message will encourage you to stay open to where the Spirit is sending you next.

Title: “What Can Stop a Move of God?”
When revival moves, it’s not just the world that notices—hell notices too. In this message, we explore how Spirit-filled community can be corrupted from within through pride, hypocrisy, and false appearances. We look at the radical generosity of the early church and contrast it with the deception of Ananias and Sapphira. Along the way, we trace God’s vision for generosity from Eden to the cross and ask hard questions about financial idolatry, spiritual performance, and carrying God’s name in vain. If you’ve ever wondered what can stop a move of God—this message shows you how it starts…and how to stop it from happening in you.

This week, Pastor Kevin brings a powerful message from Luke 15:1–10 that places Serve Day in the larger rhythm of our year of Gospel Hospitality. We’re reminded that hospitality isn’t a personality trait—it’s a Gospel command. As we prepare to step outside our red doors, this sermon calls us to join the search party with Jesus, who welcomes the lost and rejoices when they are found.
Through stories, scripture, and challenge, we’re invited to serve with strategy, love with intention, and remember the grace that first found us. This isn’t just about volunteering—it’s about reaching. Because every lost thing has value. And every welcome echoes the one we’ve already received in Christ.

Texts: Acts 4:18–31; Psalm 2; Isaiah 55;
This week, we find Peter and John under pressure—commanded by powerful authorities to stop speaking the name of Jesus. But instead of shrinking back, they say: “We cannot help but speak.” What gives ordinary people that kind of courage? In this message, we explore how Spirit-filled boldness isn’t about hype or personality—it’s about a life aligned with heaven. As the early church prays, the room shakes, and the Spirit fills them again. If you’ve ever faced fear, silence, or spiritual pressure, this message is for you. Boldness begins in prayer—and the world still needs your voice.

Texts: Acts 3:1–10, Acts 4:13, Isaiah 36:6
In Week 3 of our MOVE series, Pastor Kevin preaches from Acts 3:1–10, where Peter and John encounter a man stuck at the temple gate—paralyzed, overlooked, and surviving but not truly living. This message reminds us that the Gospel doesn’t begin with a sermon or a platform. It begins with a look. A reach. A movement toward brokenness.
God still moves through ordinary people who choose Spirit-led obedience—who refuse to walk past pain and instead bring the power of Jesus into everyday places.
When we reach, people rise. And when people rise, the world begins to believe again.

This week, we follow Peter—the same man who once denied Jesus—now standing with boldness and clarity, proclaiming the Gospel to thousands. What changed? The Holy Spirit moved in, and Peter moved forward. In this message, we explore how Spirit-filled speech isn’t about eloquence—it’s about obedience. We see how God gives us words that cut through confusion, call people to repentance, and carry the hope of salvation. If you've ever felt unqualified to speak for God, this message is for you. The Spirit has something to say—through you.

Pentecost isn’t the end of the story—it’s the ignition. In this opening message of our new series MOVE, Pastor Kevin Mullins invites us into the unstoppable, Spirit-filled movement that began in Acts and continues through us today. The early Church didn’t run on good intentions—they ran on power from on high.
This message explores:
- The five-act story of Scripture and where we fit in
- The promise and purpose of Pentecost power
- Why we don’t just read Acts—we live Acts
- The gift of the Holy Spirit: power, transformation, and new desire
- How to move from maintenance to mission—from fear to fire
If you’ve ever felt tired, stuck, or spiritually numb—this message is your invitation to ask, wait, open… and pray the ancient prayer: Come, Holy Spirit.
God has more.
Not for hype—but for holiness.
Not for a moment—but for mission.
Not for applause—but for power.

Are you settling for patched-up peace when Jesus is offering you something brand new? In this powerful and honest message, “Good Enough?” Pastor Jacinta Mullins unpacks Jesus’ parable of the wineskins in Luke 5:36–39 and challenges us to let go of what’s merely “sufficient” so we can step into what is truly transformative.
Sometimes we cling to old comforts, worn routines, and duct-taped solutions, calling them “good enough.” But Jesus didn’t come to repair our brokenness—He came to make us new. Through vivid metaphors, powerful scriptures like 2 Corinthians 5:17, and stories that hit close to home (including raccoons, Bugattis, and $700 shoes), this message invites you to release the familiar in order to receive the fresh outpouring of God’s grace.
💡 What are you holding onto that’s holding you back?
✋ What old wineskin is keeping you from the new wine Jesus is pouring?
This message ends with a meaningful call to communion and a beautiful reminder: Letting go isn’t loss—it’s preparation.

What if worship isn’t just praise—it’s protest? In this message titled “Worship as Rebellion,” Pastor Kevin explores how true worship challenges the status quo of the world, confronts spiritual complacency, and declares allegiance to a greater Kingdom. When we lift our hands and raise our voices, we're not just expressing devotion—we're resisting darkness, declaring freedom, and participating in a divine uprising.
Drawing from scriptures like Luke 19:10, Luke 15, Psalm 122:1, Proverbs 27:17, Ephesians 2:10, and 1 Corinthians 12:4–7, this message will reframe how you view Sunday mornings, serving , and discovering your God-given purpose. Worship is not passive. It's powerful. And it has the potential to change your Monday as much as your Sunday.

Can you trust God after disappointment? What if the pain of your past is keeping you from the promise of your future? In this powerful message, “Trust vs. Disappointment,” Pastor Kevin walks us through Mary Magdalene’s encounter with the risen Jesus in John 20:13–16—and shows us how resurrection hope breaks into even the most painful silences.
From Kodak’s missed opportunity to Mary’s misunderstood grief, this message weaves real-life tension with spiritual truth: disappointment is often the soil where trust dies… or where resurrection grows. You’ll hear why silent disappointment hardens into cynicism, how Jesus speaks your real name, and why your past heartbreak can’t support the weight of God’s future for you.
If you’ve ever asked, “Where was God when it didn’t work out?” — this message is for you.
👂 Listen in and rediscover how trust begins to grow again — even while the tears are still falling.

This week, Pastor Kevin unpacks one of the most uncomfortable but necessary questions: What would happen if Jesus sat down with you for a budget meeting?
Spoiler: He’s not after your wallet—He’s after your heart.
We dig into Luke 16 and discover how money isn’t just a financial issue—it’s a trust issue. This message is real, honest, a little funny (hello, budget meetings with Jacinta 😬), and packed with perspective-shifting truth.
Whether you’re living paycheck to paycheck or feel pretty solid financially, this message will challenge you to ask: Am I serving God with my money—or asking God to bless how I serve money?
🎧 Listen in, take a breath, and maybe a budget sheet... and let’s talk about surrender, stewardship, and the peace that comes when we finally say: “It’s all Yours.”

When life shakes us, where do our roots dig in? In this message, Pastor Kevin invites us to explore Jeremiah 17:5–8 and the story of the twelve spies from Numbers 13–14.

This Easter message explores the story of two betrayals—Judas and Peter—and the difference one resurrection makes. While both men failed Jesus in His final hours, only one returned to grace. In Two Failures, One Resurrection, Pastor Kevin Mullins unpacks the hope found in Peter’s restoration and reminds us that no failure has the final word when Jesus is involved.
If you’ve ever felt like you’ve gone too far or fallen too hard, this message is for you. Jesus doesn’t just rise from the grave—He calls us by name, walks into our shame, and writes resurrection into our stories.
Also, listen for a powerful invitation to baptism and a visual picture of hope you won’t forget.
🎧 Tune in now—and be reminded: You’re not done yet. Grace grows in broken ground.

On Palm Sunday 2025, Pastor Kevin shares a powerful message from Mark 11 titled A King Worth Following. As the crowd welcomes Jesus with palm branches and shouts of “Hosanna,” their expectations clash with the kind of King He truly is. Through the lens of Joseph’s story and the emotional tension of Holy Week, this sermon invites us to examine what kind of King we really want—and challenges us to follow Jesus, not just when the crowd cheers, but when the path leads through surrender.

In Make Room For Newness, Pastor Deborah delivers a timely and tender message on how clinging to what was—past successes, old pain, familiar patterns—can keep us from embracing what God is doing now. Drawing from Isaiah 43 and personal reflections, she challenges us to trust that even in dry, desolate places, God is already making a way. This message is a call to release, to trust, and to make room for the new thing God is growing in our lives.

**Have you ever felt like your time has passed? Like you’re too old, too late, or too far gone for God to still use you? In this powerful message, Pastors Kevin and Jacinta Mullins dive into the story of Barzillai, an 80-year-old man who could have believed his best days were behind him—but instead, he chose to bless the next generation and step into God’s ongoing purpose.
Through biblical examples of people who thought they were "done"—Moses, Elijah, Peter, and even a forgotten king in exile—we’re reminded that if you’re still breathing, God’s not finished with you.
No matter your age, your past, or what you think you’ve lost, God still has a plan, a calling, and work for you to do.
🔹 Your best days aren’t behind you—step into what God has next!**

As the new year begins, many seek to make incremental changes through resolutions that often fade. This four-week series challenges the idea of simple change by emphasizing that God calls us not to mere improvement but to overcome. The Bible refers to believers as overcomers, **not as those who settle for small steps. This series leads us through the spiritual battle of overcoming strongholds, interceding for others, and learning to trust fully in God’s sufficiency.
Week 4:
The final step to overcoming is trusting fully in God’s sufficiency. The question every believer must answer is: Is God enough for you?**

This six-week series covers the book of James, a letter that serves as a how-to manual for the Christian life. When we deal with trials, contentions, and lack of faith, James teaches us that we can still have joy in the midst of our circumstances. The foundation of the book is the importance of faith; faith or the lack thereof can determine the direction of one’s life.

We reshape our perception of Him into what we want to believe, or what we want to think about others. Jesus came to bring us the truth about God and His plan for us, and it doesn’t always sound like what you may think.

This new series highlights how Jesus exampled moving beyond just occupying space with people. We’ll see Him showing us our responsibility to love our neighbors and how our treatment of them effects our city and community (for the good) as well.
People prosper when our city or community prospers, and they are unhealthy when the city or community is unhealthy. Since people are so important to Jesus, Jesus loves our cities, and since Jesus loves our city, so do we.

Taking on the last two verses of the Sermon On The Mount and the story of the rich young ruler, Pastor Kevin focuses on how easy it is to be amazed by Jesus, but not ultimately changed.
This three-week Bible book series will dig into what God's specific kind of grace-filled redemption looks like, when it shows up in the lives of people you wouldn't expect at all.
An elderly widow who has nothing.
Her daughter in law (who's a foreigner) who hasn't been able to have kids, in a culture where that's just not ok.
We most clearly see God show His love for us in the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. Together in August 2021 we will see that same love, present in the lives of Naomi and Ruth, even though tragedy seems to be the most obvious thing in their life.

Psalm 51
God desires repentance over even the riches of heaven. When we come to God, he has promised to forgive us.
Text: Psalm 137
God is not surprised by or afraid of our anger. He wants us to be honest about it.
Expressing our anger to God is better than cutting ourselves off emotionally.
Text: Psalm 88
Topic: Sadness, Longing, Mourning, Refuge
There is nothing wrong with experiencing sadness. God
wants us to talk to him when we are sad.
The Bible is full of emotions. This myriad is best highlighted in the rich and artistically beautiful book of Psalms. This four-week series explores four emotional themes found in the Psalms, detailing what they mean for our relationship with God today. “Songs of the Summer” discusses God’s delight in our joy, his presence in our sadness, his understanding in our anger, and his eagerness to forgive the penitent.
Week 1 | God is the source of our joy, and he wants us to express the joy he imparts to us.
There is a slavery attached to death that God has set us free from. How should we live as we begin to understand that we will never cease to exist?
**What if the result of this season was not just avoiding the virus but walking into the full life of faith that God has promised us? What if you didn't just emerge from your houses marked safe from COVID19 but what if God raised you up to new life and wholeness in him..what if that same thing happened for the people you love in your life and for our city?
Pastor Kevin opens up the story of the 10 lepers and how the gospel emerges from it.**
Pastor Kevin Mullins
It’s all in your head. But what if that’s a good thing?
Too often we’re prisoners to our thoughts: those voices telling us to worry, that we aren’t good enough, or that we can’t ever change our behavior. But Mastermind, a four-part series, shines a light on the strongholds that hold us down and gives us the tools we need to shatter them. Through the healing power of Christ and some practical applications, we can rewire our brain to become the person God designed us to be.

As You Are Going- Spreading the Good News of Jesus and being a witness to all the amazing things God is up to in our world is not something that belongs to a special class of followers of Jesus. In fact, two different places Jesus made it clear that it should be happening as a natural part of our everyday life.
Lies I Tell Me by Pastor Kevin Mullins
When we are saved our hearts are renewed, but it takes time for our minds to build healthy new ways of thinking. The mind is the battleground for sin. We are the gatekeeper of our thoughts, and we must choose to agree with God's truth in our thought life.
Pastor Kevin Mullins
