When God Interrupts: Now I Get It 08/04/2026

When God Interrupts: Now I Get It This summer, we are exploring the ways God interrupts ordinary life to invite people into something truer, deeper, and more life-giving. In Scripture and in our own stories, God’s interruptions are rarely convenient but often transformative. Together, we will learn to notice how God meets us in disrupted plans, shifting expectations, and unexpected moments. This is not a series about disruption for its own sake. It is about trusting that God is at work even when life feels uncertain or unsettled. As we slow down and pay attention, we begin to see that his interruptions are often invitations into something better than we would have chosen on our own. Sometimes the most meaningful change in our lives begins with an interruption we did not expect, but deeply need. /episode/index/show/hopevale/id/42313435

Message: Rhythms of Grace - Practicing the Presence Of God 06/01/2026

Message: Rhythms of Grace - Practicing the Presence Of God Life is shaped by rhythms that form who we become. Rhythms of Grace is an ongoing series that explores spiritual practices to help us grow in faith and experience God’s presence. These disciplines—such as prayer, Sabbath, fasting, and more —aren’t about earning God’s love, but about living more fully in it. Each message will unpack a practice and provide practical tools to help you put it into action. In a world of hurry and distraction, these rhythms help us slow down and re-center on what matters most. As we follow Jesus, these practices shape us, both individually and collectively as the church, into His image. /episode/index/show/hopevale/id/41492835

Message: So It Is Written - Raising Lazarus 05/26/2026

Message: So It Is Written - Raising Lazarus The Gospel of John was written for people who wanted more than slogans or secondhand faith. John carefully records seven signs from the life of Jesus, not as proofs to be forced, but as testimony to be considered. These moments raise questions, spark debate, and often leave people divided—not because the signs are unclear, but because they demand interpretation. John is honest about his purpose: “But these are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Messiah, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name.” Belief in John’s Gospel is not blind certainty, but a response to what has been witnessed and recorded. This series invites space for curiosity, skepticism, and honest questions as we examine the signs together. As the evidence unfolds, each of us is left with the same quiet but unavoidable question: Who do you say that Jesus is? /episode/index/show/hopevale/id/41428345

Message: Visible King (Palm Sunday) 03/30/2026

Message: Visible King (Palm Sunday) In this follow-up to Kingdom Manifesto, we turn from Jesus’ vision of the Kingdom to the moment it became visible in real people.

The invisible Kingdom became unmistakable as their love, sacrifice, unity, and Spirit-filled courage broke into the world. In VISIBLE, we’ll discover that the same Kingdom is meant to be seen through us today—ordinary believers revealing an extraordinary King, a community that looks like heaven, and a people whose lives make grace impossible to ignore. /episode/index/show/hopevale/id/40669310
