About the Sermon

In the final sermon of the series, we explore how lament can lead to a stronger, more resilient faith. Habakkuk’s journey from doubt to trust provides a powerful example of how we can praise God even in our pain. We’ll offer practical ways to navigate through dark times, emphasizing that God is always present and worthy of our trust, even when He feels distant.

The Gratitude Gap

In this one-off message, Pastor Ryan walks through Luke 17 and the story of the ten lepers—a story that exposes how easy it is to receive God’s blessing without responding to the One who gave it. It’s a message about slowing down, remembering, and learning to see God’s goodness in the middle of real-life chaos.

Give

This week’s message wraps up our Heart for the House series with the topic most of us feel the tension around: giving. But not giving out of guilt or pressure—giving that flows from grace, trust, and ownership.
