Don’t Settle for an Empty Temple

About the Sermon

The departure of God’s glory from the temple is one of the most heartbreaking moments in Ezekiel’s visions. It shows how sin and spiritual complacency create distance between us and God. But it also sparks a hunger for His presence to return. Revival begins when we recognize what we’ve lost, grieve over it, and long for His presence to fill our lives once again.

Look to the Lamb

Pastor Josue encourages us to look to the Lamb during the holiday season.

God Moved In

In this message from the Come and See series, Pastor Ryan walks through John 1:10–14 and reminds us of a powerful truth: God didn’t stay distant—He moved in. Jesus stepped into our world, understands our pain, and stays faithful even when life feels heavy.

Before the Beginning Began

In this message, Pastor Ryan opens the Gospel of John and shows us Christmas from God’s perspective—not starting in Bethlehem, but before time itself began. John pulls back the curtain and reveals Jesus as the eternal Word: the One who existed before everything, speaks life into us, brings light into our darkness, and cannot be overcome.
