Most of us can name it instantly. But when we’re honest, the harder question is this: **Do you actually believe it can change? In this message, “The Paralysis of Hopelessness,” we open John 5 and meet a man who has been stuck for 38 years—watching other people get their breakthrough while he stays in the same place. Over time, his paralysis becomes more than physical. It becomes hopelessness.

Stop Drinking from the Wrong Well
In this message from John 4, we explore the story of Jesus and the woman at the well and uncover a deeper truth: many of us are drinking from wells that can never truly satisfy. Success, relationships, money, control, approval—these things offer temporary relief, but they always leave us wanting more.
Making Space
Why did Jesus clear the temple?
In this message from our Come and See series, we explore John 2 and the powerful moment when Jesus flips tables in the temple. This wasn’t about anger or banning commerce—it was about tearing down walls that kept people from God.
Jesus confronts injustice, exclusion, and spiritual barriers, and declares that He is the way to God. Making Space challenges us to ask what walls still exist today—and how the church can make Jesus easier to find, not easier to follow.
Key themes:
Jesus clears the temple • John 2 • Making room for the one • Church and mission • A house of prayer for all nations
