Finding genuine peace that lasts feels nearly impossible when anxiety and worry seem to be our constant companion. In this sermon on Matthew 6:25–34, Pastor Maiola Vivas helps us to look at Jesus’ tender yet direct command to not be anxious about the daily necessities of life. Rather than dismissing our concerns, Jesus gently draws our eyes to creation. He reminds us of how the Father feeds the birds of the air and clothes the lilies of the field. When we look to Him, we realize just how deeply valued and loved we are by Him. It's in knowing this love of His that brings true peace. We put...

Today's culture constantly urges us to acquire more. Work hard, to make money, to spend it on things that we want and desire. As stewards of the things that God gives us, we must ask the question: where am I investing my time, energy, and resources? In this sermon on Matthew 6:19–24, Jesus contrasts fragile earthly riches with lasting eternal heavenly rewards. While material possessions are not inherently wrong, making them the anchor of our hope, joy, and peace can quietly turn our hearts away from God. Pastor Maiola Vivas challenges us to look closely at what we treasure, reminding us that...

When it comes to spiritual disciplines like fasting, prayer, and generosity, why is it so easy to focus on outward appearances rather than the inward state of our hearts? In this sermon on Matthew 6:16–18, we look at the instructions Jesus gives to His followers about practicing their faith. He encourages us to examine our motives, making sure our motive is not to impress others but to seek genuine fellowship with God. By addressing the subtle trap of seeking human approval, Pastor Maiola Vivas reminds us of the true Biblical purpose of fasting, which is to hunger for more of God. Jesus...

Sometimes prayer can feel like a dry routine: saying the right words to get our way, high-pressure performance, or striving to get God's attention. In this message, Pastor Maiola Vivas unpacks how Jesus lovingly models a completely different framework. He teaches us to approach God not as a distant ruler but as a heavenly Father who knows our needs and invites us into real relationship. Together, we look at how balancing deep intimate friendship with awe-inspiring reverence changes the way we pray to God during life's greatest trials. When we seek His Kingdom and surrender our will to His,...

We live in a world filled with caution signs. It can be all too easy to brush them off and assume everything will be fine. In Matthew 6:1–8, Pastor Derek Napoleon explores spiritual warning signs posted by Jesus in the Sermon on the Mount. Together, we'll unpack why ignoring them carries profound consequences for both daily life and eternity. At the core of this teaching, Jesus challenges the hidden motives of the human heart. He cautions against the subtle trap of performing faith, public generosity, or impressive prayers that aim to earn attention and applause from others. By exposing the...

This week, Pastor Mike Skedeleski continues our series through the book of Matthew. In a world that constantly encourages us to love only those who love us back and to hold onto personal animosity, Jesus introduces a Kingdom standard that turns cultural norms upside down. What if the true test of our faith isn't how we treat our friends but how we respond to the very people who offend, hurt, or persecute us? Keeping the cross in mind, we discover that Jesus never asks us to do anything He didn't live out first. Through His humble and gracious example at Calvary, we see what it means to choose...

What does it look like to live with faithfulness that goes deeper than our actions and reaches into our hearts? In this message, Pastor Paul Gates explores Jesus' words in Matthew 5:27–30, challenging us to take an honest look at the ways sin can quietly shape our thoughts, desires, and relationships. As we consider God's faithfulness, we're invited to protect what matters most and take sin seriously. This is not a message about our faithfulness, it's about His. Our faithfulness often is broken and imperfect, but God's faithfulness is always full, complete, and unwavering. As we learn to...
