We live in a culture today that gravitates to the casual, but what is that costing our souls? Many of us have embraced a casual spirituality and that has allowed us to treat the God of the universe and our hearts as casual. If we want breakthrough in our lives we have to get a proper vision of a holy God, and that vision will affect every aspect of our lives and frame reality as we journey through life. Join us today for The Birthplace of Breakthrough: Holiness.

How do we make Heaven crowded? How do we ensure that the Great Harvest is plentiful? The answer is simple. Planting seeds. In the book of Acts right before Jesus ascended into Heaven, he gave us our mission. To be witnesses to all the nations, cities and to the ends of the Earth. How do we do that? What does that mean? Join us as we wrap up GO month here at the Summit Church!

The last words of a friend before a hard goodbye; the last words of wisdom from a parent to a child as the head off to college; the final words of someone you love all carry weight don’t they? We hold on to those words. We cherish those words because what people say when they know the end of a season is near are most important. Join us today as we begin our new series--GO--as we study the final words that Jesus spoke to his followers before he ascended to Heaven.

As we look back on our lives as our older selves what’s missing? Jim Cymbala, in his opening chapter of Fresh Wind, Fresh Fire, the story of a struggling congregation in Brooklyn, where God’s spirit invaded the hearts of his people, writes, “I despair at the thought that my life might slip by without seeing God, show himself mightily on our behalf.” THAT is what’s missing and what we long to experience today!

This week we will be reading from John 7:1-13. Today we are going to find Jesus committed to what God wants him to do and that creates controversy with those close to him.

Maybe we said something a little punchy in a meeting; harsh w/ kids. Maybe we didn’t say it this time, but someone said something so offensive to us. It’s one thing for us to say things like this or for our friends to say things like to us, but have you ever read the words of Jesus and thought: Wow, that’s harsh. Or that’s hard to hear; I can’t believe they said that. That’s so offensive. If you have, you aren’t alone. At some point in following Jesus, He should offend you…and that’s a good thing and our text today will show us why.
Thank you for joining us online! We are so glad to have you a part of our online community. Today Pastor Aaron is going to give us 4 proofs of why you should believe in the resurrection of Jesus Christ.

This could be the most important post that you have come across in your life. Why? Because this is probably the most important message that Pastor Aaron has delivered to The Summit Church, and we want you to join in on the message today.
Birth announcements say a lot about a person. Sometimes birth announcements are funny; sometimes they are endearing; and other times they are more serious. If you were going to tell the world about the birth of the savior of the world, how would you do it? Join us today to find out how the Bible tells the world about the birth of Jesus from Isaiah.
800 years before Jesus was born the prophet Isaiah told the Jewish people and the known world that a child would be born. This child would be distinct in his character and his function in the world. Join us today as we learn about the wonderful counsel of Jesus when we fear, fail, and falter.
Dehydration is a big deal and it can ultimately do a ton of damage in our bodies. Did you know that there is such thing as spiritual dehydration? Totally! Check out today’s sermon from Pastor Aaron as he teaches us through John 4.
What is the greatest verse in all of the Bible? Join us today as we dig deeper into the greatest conversation that reveals the greatest tragedy, truth, and threat to us believing and following Jesus.
What do Tim Tebow, football, and the Bible have in common? You can’t go very far until you see Tim Tebow wear John 3:16…or watch College GameDay and see a sign with John 3:16 on it…or read the Gospel of John without seeing it. Join us today as we get the back story to the greatest verse in all the Bible!
Sometimes what we appears to be true on the surface isn’t actually true. This reality caused Jesus to flip tables and flip temples. Join us today to find out what that’s all about.
A lot of things can happen in 72 hours. You can run (if you’re a pro) through the Arizona desert in the Cocodona 250. You can drive from Cincinnati to Los Angeles. You can go to Disney World and still not experience everything. But what else can you do in 72 hours? Join us today as Pastor Aaron preaches a sermon that he has just called: 72 Hours.
Do you really know who you are? So many of us are on a quest to find out who we are because knowing that is incredibly freeing and foundational to having purpose in our lives. Join us today as we look into Scripture and meet a man who has a ton of clarity on who he is and how that shapes his purpose for his life.
Every story has a beginning and today we start our journey with the top 5 reasons you should believe that Jesus is the Christ. Join us today for week one of our verse by verse study through the Gospel of John.
Have you ever felt unqualified? It's good to know that God uses the unqualified to fulfill His purpose.
Sometimes we can be so afraid that we make our lives so much more difficult. But knowing that God can do so much with so little should bring comfort to our fear. Check out the Story of Gideon and see how setting aside his fear and allowing God to be in control can change everything.
What does following your heart look like? Written over 3,000 years ago, the book of Judges answers this question and more. These are some of the most insane stories in the Bible - they make Quentin Tarantino look tame. But more unbelievable than that is how relevant these stories are to us today.
Proper alignment is the key to success. When your tires are properly aligned driving is simple. When your body is properly aligned you are in optimal health. How important do you think it is to be properly aligned with God? We believe that is the most important thing in the world. Today in our final sermon in our study of the book of Jonah Pastor Aaron helps us understand the tension of spiritual alignment and get our hearts running in the same direction as God’s heart.
Everyone needs a second chance at some point in their life. Join us today to hear the amazing story of a city who didn’t deserve a second chance, but by God’s grace they got one!
What does it mean to deconstruct your faith? Join Pastor Aaron and the Summit Church today to learn about what it means to run from God and how you can run back to faith in God through the story of Jonah.
There is one thing that affects everything in our lives and if we don’t deal with it…it will be devastating. Jump into our new series through the book of Jonah today!
No one wants to be dooped! It’s one thing to know that you are being dooped when you willingly buy a cologne that’s a knock off of the real thing, but it is a whole different thing when you are unknowingly deceived about something way more serious. Join us today as we walk through how we can tell who is a true teacher and who is a false teacher.
Every one of us spend the majority of our lives pursuing and investing in the same thing…our work. Where we work is usually what we all focus on, but where isn’t as important as how we work. How we work says a lot about us. Today Pastor Aaron unpacks two verses in 1 Timothy 6 that encourage us to focus more on how we work over where we work and why that is so important. Tune in today to learn about one of the most relevant topics we all need help with…our work.
Churches are made up of people. People are going to disagree. Feelings can get hurt. People are going to experience conflict if they stick around long enough. What are we supposed to do when that happens? Join us today to find out!
Join us today as Pastor Aaron continues in our series The Good Fight, a verse by verse study of the book of 1 Timothy!
Anyone who sets out to build anything of structural integrity begins with the foundation. The foundation is what the entire weight of the structure sits on and allows it to stand. What are you building your life upon? What should a church be built on? Join us today to find out!
Who in the world is in charge? Does it even matter who leads? Check in and find out today!
God has written in His Word some very specific things that are sometimes hard to hear, but by His grace and the conviction of the Holy Spirit we will the Bible, not our feelings or our flesh, shape our lives. Join us for our third sermon in our book study through 1 Timothy called: The Good Fight.
The church has received some well deserved criticism over the years about coming off like a country club of judgemental hypocrites. The truth is…the church has behaved like that at times, but it’s not God’s fault that people got it wrong. A faithful church that honors God will be a church that….tune in to find out!
There are plenty of church fights that are just plain ridiculous. Fighting over the paint colors; what the pastor wears; or even if coffee should be served or not. But there is a church fight that is right. Join us today as we start a brand new study in the book of 1 Timothy where we are going to engage in The Good Fight.
Are you weighed down by the pressure of life? Do you feel the expectation to perform over and over again at work? Do you find yourself tied to your phone to offload some of the work when you should be spending time with your family or your friend? Yes…yes…and yes?! Then you aren’t alone, because we all feel this and today Pastor Aaron is going to conclude our series, The Grind [Finding Rest In a Fast-Paced World] with the key practice to finding rest. Jump in today!
What we crave actually controls our behavior and eventually characterizes our lives. Often what we crave doesn’t satisfy. What if what we craved actually brought deep satisfaction and fulfillment. How does that even happen? Jump in today to learn the simple discipline that is a spiritual game changer!
Our lives are filled with noise. This noise comes from everywhere and it’s doing something to our hearing. With all the noise can we hear the one voice that matters most? How can I turn down the noise in my life? Tune in today to find out how!
Every year we want to be better, right? But what if this was the year that better actually happened? Today Pastor Aaron is going to teach us three prayers for 2023 that could change everything for us. A prayer for 💪🏼. A prayer for 🤯. A prayer for ➕. Join us today!
What does it really mean for God to Rule the world. Many of us believe God is sovereign until He seems to not be. But what happens when our kids misbehave? When you're so sure something was in God's plan and then it wasn't. The Christmas Story is one of trust in God's sovereignty. Join us today as we did into God's word.
There is a question that every one of us are going to be faced with at some point in our lives and how we answer that question will determine how we live our lives now and forever. Join us today for our third week in a series of Christmas messages that are designed to turn our hearts and minds to the deeper meaning of Christmas.
Christmas is full of surprises just like life is full of surprises. How we handle surprises reveals where our trust is. Join us today for our series of sermons during this Christmas season that are designed to turn our hearts and minds to the deeper meaning of Christmas.
Christmas can get expensive can’t it? It seems like every year Christmas costs us more and more. Christmas always costs somebody something and the very first Christmas tells us so much about what Christmas costs God and why He spent so much. Join us today for our first week in a series of Christmas messages that are designed to turn our hearts and minds to the deeper meaning of Christmas.
Everyone has faced a hard day. Some of us have been through a hard season. How are we supposed to be thankful in moments like that? Join us this week as Pastor Aaron teaches us how to flip the script when we want to quit.
PART TWO!!!! Change is in the air. All around us this fall the leaves change colors that fill up the landscape with beauty and wonder. That is what is truly at the core of change--beauty and wonder. Change is apart of life and in the quiet moments is what we all want to experience in our lives. How do we actually change? Join us as Pastor Aaron opens up the Bible and teaches us how we change.

The greatest enemy to you experiencing rest for your soul is without a doubt DISTRACTION…and the in of distraction might surprise you! Join us for week two of The Grind: Finding Rest in a Fast-Paced World.
BOLD STATEMENT: Everyone’s busy and everyone’s bragging about it. We think it’s cool to be overloaded. It makes us feel important and needed, but what if busyness isn’t a badge of honor? What if busyness is harming us? What if busyness is violence to the human soul? If you are honest when you look at your life you probably feel tired, overwhelmed, and burdened about everything you find, but what if you didn’t have to live that way? Weighted down. Burdened. Weary. Join us for a new sermon series called: The Grind [finding rest in a fast-paced world]. There is hope!
The last words of a friend before a hard goodbye; the last words of wisdom from a parent to a child as the head off to college; the final words of someone you love all carry weight don’t they? We hold on to those words. We cherish those words because what people say when they know the end of a season is near are most important. Join us today as we close out our series--Won’t You Be My Neighbor?--as we study the final words that Jesus spoke to his followers before he ascended to Heaven.
Have you ever been lost before? Being lost and not knowing your way around is terrible! What might be worse than being lost might be being lost and no one is looking for you! Join us today for week three of our series, Won’t You Be My Neighbor, and see how all this connects!
What are you supposed to do if you have a neighbor that you just flat out don’t like? The answer might surprise you. Join us today for week 2 of our series: Won’t You Be My Neighbor?
The Neighborhood was an iconic place that Mister Rogers created where millions of children the values of kindness, compassion, and what it means to be a good neighbor wherever they lived. Join us today as we kick off a fresh take on this idea of what it means to be a neighbor.
What if we were to tell you that there is a tool that when used correctly in your home has the ability to change your home and make it a place where joy fills the rooms and your children grow and thrive… would you want to know what that tool is?
Have you ever had a bad day? Of course you have! We all have. What happens when those days stack up into a hard season? Everyone has felt the pain of adversity in our family life and personal life. As alarming as adversity is, we believe that what happens to us really serves to advance us. Join us today for week 3 of Chasing Bigfoot: The Myth of The Perfect Parent as we learn how to advance through adversity.
Ed Asner once said, “Raising kids is part joy and part guerilla warfare.” Today we get in the trenches of what it means to intentionally discipline our kids towards knowing, loving, and following Jesus. It’s joy and war! Jump in with us today for part one!
Is Bigfoot real? Some think so, and others classify that as American legend and myth. Some people spend their lives chasing this mythical creature only to come up short in the end. Parenting is a lot like that. Every parent feels the pressure to get this thing right. There’s pressure to be the perfect parent, and we are here to tell you that being a perfect parent is a myth. There is no perfect parent--unless….join us as we kick off a brand new series--Chasing Bigfoot: The Myth of The Perfect Parent today!
What kind of church are you looking for? If we were to really ask that question we would get as many answers as there are paint colors at Home Depot! Maybe another question is what kind of church is God looking for? Join us today to see if we can answer that question!
The ugly truth that no one wants to admit is that we are all hypocrites in one way or another. How do we close the door on our hypocrisy? Join us today in week 6 of our series called VII where we are doing a deep dive into the seven churches of Revelation!
Will you choose success or faithfulness in the situation that you cannot have both? Join us today to find out which choice is the best choice when it comes to flourishing in life.
Love is the most powerful force in the world. It compels us to do some of the craziest things. What do you do when your love has grown cold for God? Because when you are cold for God you will definitely be cold towards others. Maybe that explains a lot about what’s going on in our world? How do you get that heat back? Join us today to find out!
It’s bigger than where you’re going to go to college. It’s bigger than what you will do for your career. It’s even bigger than who you will marry. It’s the biggest question in your life and we are asking it today! Join us at Summit Church today for Easter Sunday 2022!
It’s week three of our series on spiritual gifts! Jump in today and learn about how you might be gifted by God!

SpiritualGifts #GiftsofTheHolySpirit #SUMMITatHOME #summitchurchcincinnati #church #sundayfunday #ohio #ohiochurches #cincinnati #cincinnatichurches #gather #grow #give #go
We are starting a brand new series today! Join us for week one of Spiritual Gifts as Pastor Aaron answers some common questions about spiritual gifts.
We couldn’t possible know every detail of what is going on in your life right now, but what we do know is that you scrolled by this today and that wasn’t by accident. Join us today in our final sermon in the book of Exodus where Pastor Aaron answers the question everyone of us have asked a million times in our lives--now what?
How many times have you blown it? Really blown it? If that’s you…join the club! We have all missed the mark in our lives and God is ready and willing to give you a second chance, but there is a condition--you gotta come His way. See what that is today in our second to last sermon in the book of Exodus. Today we look at ReSurrender!
Joe Burrow has electrified our city and the NFL. What’s interesting is that he is probably the only former number one draft pick that still lives with parents! That really does tell us a lot about Joe’s priorities and actually proves that having a home matters. So, there was this time in the Bible where God asked Moses to start a new building project--a Home! Join us today for Into The Wilderness #21: God Builds A Home!
There is a tension that everyone of us live within that can be incredibly life giving or devastating. It’s the tension of a promise made and a promise broken. Is there anyone who can keep a promise? Find out today!
Slavery, kidnapping, and boiling young goats in their mother’s milk--wait what--THAT’S in the actual Bible?! It is and join us today to figure out what in the world to do with all that!
There’s so much nostalgia surrounding the 10 Commandments. There’s also a lot of really bad teaching surrounding the 10 Commandments. Join us today for another week in our series INTO THE WILDERNESS as Pastor Aaron teaches through the 10 Commandments!
There is a lesson that everyone of us has learned in the last two years through a global disruption, racial tension, an unprecedented election, and now a sustained crisis. That lesson? Leadership is HARD! No matter the arena of life you find yourself in leading is difficult. So, what are we supposed to do when leading gets hard? Join us today to find out the three things we do when leading is hard.
Many of us have noticed over these last few years that our world is broken and people have been shaken to the core by so many different issues and circumstances. It leads us to ask a very real question: is there anything in this life that is unbreakable…unshakeable? Not to show all of our cards…but there is something uniquely unbreakable and unshakeable within the Christian worldview that can bring us all hope. Join us today for Pastor Aaron’s last sermon in Romans 8 — A Sure Thing
There is a question that every generation on the planet has asked at one point or another. It’s personal. It’s real. It’s honest...and today we are going to talk about it. Why do I (people) suffer? Join us today as we talk about this very relevant question and walk away with some real hope!
What is the best Christmas gift you ever got? Odd are many of us can’t remember what we got last year! Sometimes the best gifts, over time, can become forgotten gifts.

So, what are we supposed to do when life throws us more than we can handle?
