About the Sermon

This sermon takes us into the heart of the struggle of waiting on God. Habakkuk’s frustration with God’s timing resonates with our own experiences of feeling like God is slow to act. We’ll explore why God’s responses can seem delayed and gain a deeper understanding of how to trust His perfect timing, even when it challenges our patience.

The King is Here

In this message, NextGen Pastor Ben Lakin explores the deeper meaning behind Jesus’ triumphal entry and what it reveals about the kind of King He truly is—bold in identity yet humble in approach, determined to go to the cross for the people He loves. The story confronts a personal question for every one of us: Who is sitting on the throne of your life?

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.
