1 Peter: Present Suffering. Future Glory.

How do you follow Jesus when life gets hard? What do you do when your faith puts you at odds with the world around you? In this six-week sermon series through the book of 1 Peter, we discover what it means to live faithfully in a world that doesn't always make following Jesus easy. Peter writes to Christians facing uncertainty, opposition, and suffering, reminding them of their identity in Christ and the hope they have because of Jesus. Through this series, we'll learn how to stand firm in our faith, love others well, respond to difficult circumstances, and live with an eternal perspective. Following Jesus won't always be easy, but the hope we have in him changes how we live today.

Sermons

Kingdom Come

Jesus didn’t just tell us to pray—He taught us how. In Kingdom Come, we walk line by line through the Lord’s Prayer in Matthew 6 and discover an entire way of life packed into a few familiar sentences. Jesus teaches us who we’re praying to, what it means to ask for God’s Kingdom and will, how to trust Him with our daily needs, how forgiveness shapes our relationships, and how to pray when we’re facing temptation. This series is about learning to pray the way Jesus taught us—not with impressive words or religious formulas, but as people who know God as Father, trust Jesus as King, and want His Kingdom to come in us and through us.

The Good Work

Nehemiah saw something broken, felt the burden deeply, and chose to do something about it. The Good Work is a series about how God uses ordinary people to rebuild what’s been neglected, serve where they’re needed, and make a difference together. No one can do everything, but everyone can do something.

Rules for Life: Proverbs

Rules for Life is a sermon series through the book of Proverbs about building a life that actually works. Proverbs is not just a collection of inspirational sayings. It is wisdom for real life: our words, decisions, relationships, money, work, anger, temptation, parenting, integrity, and the direction of our hearts. It shows us that the choices we make every day are shaping the people we are becoming. In this series, Pastor Ryan and Josue walk through practical wisdom from Proverbs and show how God teaches us to live with clarity, humility, discipline, and purpose. These are not random tips for being a better person. They are rules for life rooted in the fear of the Lord, pointing us toward Jesus, who is the wisdom of God. If you want to make wiser decisions, stop repeating old patterns, strengthen your relationships, and learn how to follow God in everyday life, this series is for you. Subscribe and follow along as we learn God’s wisdom for real life. #RulesForLife #Proverbs #Wisdom #ChristianSermon #BibleStudy #ChristianLiving #Faith #Jesus #SermonSeries #PastorRyan
