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.

30 Days to Live with Mike Breaux

In this powerful kickoff to our Be Our Guest series, guest speaker Mike Breaux challenges us to stop putting off the life God is calling us to live.

Drawing from Acts 4, this message is a direct invitation to move from spiritual boredom to a life marked by purpose, courage, and obedience to Jesus.

Raised to Life

This message unpacks:

Sin is slavery — It promises freedom but ultimately controls and destroys
Baptism is a transfer of ownership — You were buried with Christ and raised into a new life
Your new life is not your own — You were bought at a price
You are alive to God now — No longer defined by your old life
Real change happens through surrender — Giving every part of your life to God

Buried with Christ

In Part 1 of this two-week series, Pastor Ryan walks through Romans 6 and what it really means to be buried with Christ in baptism. This isn’t just a symbol or a moment—it’s a turning point. A line in the sand where the old life is left behind.
