What if abiding in Jesus isn't only about what He wants to do in you, but what He wants to do through you? In this message, Pastor Ken Senchal continues the How to Abide in Jesus series by exploring one of the most practical expressions of a life connected to Christ: serving others. Jesus said, “I am the vine; you are the branches.” A branch doesn't produce fruit for itself. The fruit is always for somebody else. Using the simple S.E.E. framework, Pastor Ken challenges us to: S — See the Need The closer we get to Jesus, the more we begin to notice the people Jesus notices. E —...

What if following Jesus was never meant to be a solo journey? In Acts 2, the early church didn’t simply gather for a service—they created a community centered on Jesus. They shared life, worshiped together, prayed together, served one another, met practical needs, and helped each other grow. In this message, Pastor Ken Senchal explores why biblical community is essential to abiding in Jesus. Because the people God places around us can help us become more like Christ. But authentic community requires more than simply showing up at church. It requires us to move from attendance to belonging....

People do not live differently until they see differently. In Week 6 of our Ephesians series, Pastor Ken teaches from Ephesians 4:25-32, showing how the Christian life is not about behavior modification but transformation through a new identity in Christ. Paul challenges believers to put off the old self and put on the new self through honesty, self-control, generosity, encouragement, kindness, and forgiveness.

info_outlineIn today’s Grateful Rebels message, Pastor Ken Senchal takes us deep into one of the most misunderstood — and most life-changing — principles in Scripture: the biblical tithe.
Long before there was a law… long before Israel… long before the church… God was teaching His people to honor Him with their first and best.
Abel brought God the firstborn from his flock.
Abram brought a tenth to Melchizedek out of honor and gratitude.
Jacob declared that everything God gave him, he would return a tenth to the Lord.
Tithing wasn’t born from rules — it was born from relationship.
In this message you’ll learn:
• Why God uses the tithe to reshape our heart, not deplete our wallet
• Why the early church continued the principle of “firstfruits” even after the law
• Why Jesus corrected the Pharisees on tithing — not to stop it, but to reset it
• How tithing breaks the power of greed, fear, comparison, and self-entitlement
• How generosity positions your life under God’s blessing
• And why the tithe is still divinely blessed today
This message isn’t about what God wants from you — it’s about what God wants for you.
Experience the freedom that comes from trusting God first.
