In the final message of Death Bed: Putting Sin to Death, Pastor Andrew explores Colossians 3:1-17 and what it means to keep following Jesus beyond a moment of conviction. Putting sin to death involves both leaving old patterns behind and growing in compassion, honesty, patience, forgiveness, and love. From private struggles to everyday conversations, discover how your new identity in Christ changes the way you live, why Christian community matters, and how the Spirit helps you obey when the fight is difficult. If you’re tired of repeating the same patterns, this message offers hope and practical next steps.

Listen as Pastor Dave unpacks the a question he got about Mental Health struggles.

You know what’s right. You want to change. So why do you keep going back to the same sin? In week two of Death Bed: Putting Sin to Death, we open Romans 7 and face the frustration of knowing what God says while struggling to live it out. What do you do when you’ve heard the message, meant the apology, and promised things would be different, only to find yourself right back where you started? Paul brings that struggle into the open and points us toward the rescue we cannot provide for ourselves. Through Romans 7:7-25 and Romans 8:1-4, we explore why knowing the rules and wanting to change cannot overcome sin on their own, and how Jesus gives us forgiveness, freedom, and the Holy Spirit’s help to follow him. If you’re tired of making the same promises and ashamed to ask God for help again, this message is an invitation to come to him honestly. Your failure doesn’t put you beyond his reach.

Listen in as Pastor Dave unpacks the question, who is the Holy Spirit?

What do you do when a sin you keep returning to starts to feel like part of who you are? You’ve made promises, felt the regret, and wondered whether anything will ever change. In the opening message of Death Bed: Putting Sin to Death, Pastor Andrew explores Romans 6:1–14 and the freedom Jesus gives those who belong to him. Temptation may still be real, but sin is no longer your master. God’s grace gives you both forgiveness and a reason to fight. Whether you grew up in church or are still exploring faith, this message invites you to consider what new life in Jesus means for your everyday choices. From interrupting familiar patterns to having an uncomfortable conversation, discover practical steps toward taking sin seriously and offering your life to God.

Most Christians believe that God forgives sin. The harder question is often whether we truly believe He has forgiven ours. In this opening message from our Asking for a Friend series, Pastor Andrew answers the question, “How do you overcome guilt, shame, and condemnation?” Through David’s failure, confrontation, and confession in 2 Samuel 11–12, Psalm 34, and Psalm 51, we discover what hidden sin does to us, why God’s conviction is an expression of His pursuit, and how genuine repentance leads us out of hiding. Forgiveness does not always remove the consequences of our choices, but for everyone who is in Christ, it completely removes condemnation. You do not overcome guilt by pretending you are innocent. You overcome it by bringing your guilt to the One who has already paid the price. If you have been hiding something, punishing yourself for something Jesus has already paid for, or wondering whether God’s grace could really include you, this message is for you.

Most of us know how the Good Samaritan ends. But familiarity can keep us from feeling the challenge Jesus puts in front of us. In this message from Luke 10:25–37, Pastor Andrew explores the gap between knowing what God says and living it, the excuses that keep us walking past hurting people, and the compassion that moves us toward someone even when helping costs us something. Jesus calls us to show mercy beyond our friendships, our comfort, and the boundaries we draw around who deserves our love. And that response begins with remembering the mercy He has already shown us. As you listen, consider: Whose pain have you noticed, and what would it look like to take one step toward them? “Go and do the same.” Luke 10:37

Listen as Pastor Dave wraps up our series, How to Lose a Kingdom

Five years from now, your life could look completely different. But the person you'll be then is being shaped by the decisions you're making right now. Your character, your relationships, your habits, and the way you respond when life gets difficult are all shaping who you're becoming. In the final message of our series through 1 Peter, Pastor Andrew explores what it means to stand firm in God's grace when life feels overwhelming, temptation keeps coming back, and following Jesus is harder than you expected. Through 1 Peter 5:1–14, we're challenged to lead through character rather than control, surrender the burdens we've been trying to carry ourselves, recognize the spiritual battles happening in our everyday lives, and trust the God who promises to restore, establish, strengthen, and support us. Maybe you're anxious about your future. Maybe you're exhausted from trying to keep everything together. Maybe you've been slowly drifting away from Jesus, and nobody around you has noticed. You don't have to have everything figured out to stand firm. Your confidence isn't in your ability to hold everything together. It's in the faithfulness of the God who holds you. As we close this series, we're reminded that following Jesus doesn't mean life will always be easy, but we never have to face it alone. God is faithful. So don't walk away.

Has following Jesus ever cost you something you actually cared about? It's easy to say we'll follow Jesus no matter what when obedience hasn't cost us anything yet. But what happens when doing the right thing makes life harder instead of easier? What happens when you refuse to compromise and lose something because of it? In Week 3 of our series through 1 Peter, Pastor Andrew walks through 1 Peter 3:8–4:19 and explores what it means to remain faithful when following Jesus comes with a social cost. Peter challenges us to resist retaliation, refuse to let fear make our decisions, and respond to opposition with gentleness and respect. Most importantly, he points us to Jesus, who suffered unjustly to bring us to God. Following Jesus doesn't guarantee that everybody will understand you, agree with you, or want you around. Sometimes obedience really will cost you something. But the cross reminds us that we follow a Savior who understands rejection and is worthy of our faithfulness even when it hurts. If you don't decide what matters most before the pressure comes, the pressure will decide what matters most for you.

Have you ever wondered what people say about you when you’re not in the room? In Week 2 of our series through 1 Peter, we look at what it means to actually live differently because we belong to Jesus. Peter writes to Christians who are being misunderstood, slandered, and treated unfairly, but instead of telling them to obsess over defending their reputation, he tells them to live in such a way that their lives make false accusations difficult to believe. From the way we respond to authority, to the kind of person we become in relationships, Peter reminds us that following Jesus should change the way we treat people. We can’t control everything people say about us, but we can control whether our lives give those accusations credibility.

How do you live faithfully when belonging to Jesus makes belonging everywhere else harder? We all want to belong. We want people who save us a seat, text us first, invite us in, and actually want us around. But what happens when belonging to Jesus starts costing us belonging somewhere else? Pastor Andrew walks us through 1 Peter 1:1-2:10 where Peter writes to Christians who knew what it felt like to be outsiders. They were being rejected, misunderstood, and treated differently because of their faith. But Peter reminds them of something more powerful than the rejection they were experiencing: You may feel rejected, but you have been chosen. In this message, we talk about what it means to follow Jesus when your faith makes you different, why rejection doesn't get to define you, how a living hope changes the way you face difficult seasons, and why Christian community matters when following Jesus feels lonely. Because eventually, every follower of Jesus has to wrestle with a difficult question: Whose acceptance am I most afraid of losing? There will be moments when you can't have both faithfulness to Jesus and everybody's approval. And when that happens, 1 Peter reminds us where our identity is actually found. You are chosen. You have a living hope. You are part of God's people. You belong to something bigger than yourself. You may not belong there but you belong to God.
