About the Sermon

Most of us can name it instantly. But when we’re honest, the harder question is this: **Do you actually believe it can change? In this message, “The Paralysis of Hopelessness,” we open John 5 and meet a man who has been stuck for 38 years—watching other people get their breakthrough while he stays in the same place. Over time, his paralysis becomes more than physical. It becomes hopelessness.

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.
