About the Sermon

In this opening sermon, we address the difficult reality of feeling like God is silent during our struggles. By looking at Habakkuk’s honest questions and doubts, we learn how to express our own frustrations to God without losing our faith. We’ll discover that God’s silence doesn’t mean He’s absent and that there is meaning to be found even in the quiet, lonely seasons.

The Waiting Room

Life is full of waiting rooms.
In this message, we walk through one of the most powerful stories in the Gospel of John and discover a truth we desperately need in our own waiting seasons: God is always right on time. His timing may not be our timing, and the right time is not always right now, but His silence does not mean His absence. Even in grief, disappointment, and unanswered prayer, Jesus is still working.

Only God Can Judge Me

“Only God can judge me.”

It’s a phrase our culture uses to shut down criticism—but in John 8, we see what it truly means when Jesus is the One standing in the place of judgment. In this message from our Come and See series, Pastor Josue walks through John 7:53–8:11 (the woman caught in adultery) and shows how Jesus responds when religious leaders drag a woman into public shame to trap Him.
