A Church That's Real Not Just Right // Jeff Brodie // A Church Every Community Needs (Part 1)
Connexus Church Video Podcast
Most people think God gets mad when they wander — but Jesus said the opposite. In Luke 15, He tells the story of two sons: one who ran away and made a mess of his life, and another who stayed but grew cold, bitter, and distant. Both were lost. Both were loved. And the Father ran toward them both. What if the church looked like that kind of love? At Connexus, we believe the church shouldn’t just be a place for people who get it all right. It should be a place for people who are real — real about their doubts, their struggles, their pride, and their pain. Because the church isn’t a club...

Remember Me // Luke Crawford // If You Met Jesus (Part 5)
Connexus Church Video Podcast
Every one of us wants to live a life worth remembering. But are we building our lives on résumé virtues or eulogy virtues? Communion reminds us that what makes life worth remembering isn’t what we achieve, but what Jesus has done for us and what we allow him to do through us. In this message, we’ll explore how communion calls us to look to the past, present, and future—to remember Christ’s sacrifice, live faithfully here and now, and anchor our hope in his return.

Connexus Church Video Podcast
Have you ever felt like your past disqualifies you from being close to God? Like your story is too messy, or your shame is too heavy?

When Jesus Asks Something You Don’t Understand // Jeff Brodie // If You Met Jesus (Part 3)
Connexus Church Video Podcast
What if the thing Jesus is asking of you doesn’t make sense? Have you ever felt like faith is asking too much—or just doesn’t line up with real life? Maybe you’ve been burned out, disappointed, or left wondering, “Why would God ask me to do that?” Peter was right there. Twice. Once after an exhausting night of failure. Again after deep regret and distance from Jesus. But in both moments, Jesus invited him to trust. And what happened next? It wasn’t just about fish—it was about transformation. This message is for anyone who’s felt like giving up, questioning what God is doing,...

You Are Not Too Far Gone For God // Luke Crawford // If You Met Jesus (Part 2)

Like Matthew, you’re invited to leave behind what’s broken and step into a life filled with love, purpose, and belonging. Jesus is someone worth losing everything for—because in him, you gain what truly matters.

Why Trying Harder Won’t Save You! // Jeff Brodie // If You Met Jesus (Part 1)
Connexus Church Video Podcast
What if being religious isn’t the answer? Most people think following Jesus is about being good, trying harder, or doing all the right spiritual things. But that’s not what Jesus taught. In a late-night encounter with a religious leader named Nicodemus, Jesus flips everything upside down with one bold truth: you don’t need a better version of yourself—you need a brand new you. Whether you’ve walked away from religion, feel stuck in guilt, or wonder if God could ever accept you, this message is for you. Jesus’ invitation isn’t about self-improvement—it’s about starting over....

How Surrender Positions You For A Miracle // Andy Stanley // Miracles Then & Now (P4)
Connexus Church Video Podcast
What if experiencing a miracle isn’t about formulas, prayers, or luck… but about posture? In Part 4 of Miracles: Then & Now, Andy Stanley challenges a common assumption about miracles: they aren’t random, but they do happen where people position themselves in surrender to God’s purposes. It’s not about manipulating outcomes — it’s about embracing trust even when it costs us something. If you’ve been wrestling with a big decision, wondering where God is, or hoping for something more — this message will help you reframe the conversation. Sometimes the miracle isn’t what...

Living With The Tension Of Unanswered Prayer // Andy Stanley // Miracles Then & Now (Part 2)
Connexus Church Video Podcast
You’ve probably seen it before—one person gets the miracle, and someone else doesn’t. One story ends in celebration, the other in heartbreak. And if you’re honest, it’s hard not to wonder: Is God playing favourites? Is He even listening? In Part 2 of Miracles: Then & Now, Andy Stanley walks us through a raw and often overlooked tension in the Bible—why Peter lives, but Stephen dies. Why some people are healed while others are left waiting. And what it actually means to trust God when the outcome isn’t what you hoped for. If you’ve ever questioned God’s fairness, wrestled...
