What is Our Purpose? // Our Mission

Reel Theology - Therapeutic Theology

They’re back—and in today’s message, Mike and Mike unpack therapeutic theology: what it is and how it shapes our thinking through social media. Is the main goal of life to be happy and feel good? Does personal happiness take priority over following Jesus? Today’s message challenges these assumptions and calls us to anchor our identity in Christ rather than cultural comfort. Philippians 4: 6-7 "do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus."

Reel Theology - AI Theology

In today’s message, Mike Whittymore and Mike Havren tag‑team to address the rapid spread of Artificial Intelligence in our daily lives. AI may offer quick answers, but it has real limitations—and it cannot replace the wisdom God gives through Scripture, nor the irreplaceable touch of human relationships. As believers, we’re invited to use these tools with discernment and keep God’s Word as our final authority. Romans 12:2 "Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect."

Reel Theology - Social Media Theology

Reels—short, rapid‑fire video clips—are everywhere in today’s social media. They tap into our instinct for instant gratification, but could they also be feeding us false information or distorted theology? This week, Jason launches a new series exploring how modern technology can quietly shape our beliefs and how we may be taking in lies without even realizing it. 1 Peter 3:15 "but in your hearts honor Christ the Lord as holy, always being prepared to make a defense to anyone who asks you for a reason for the hope that is in you; yet do it with gentleness and respect" We'd love to connect with you today, send us a message or comment via ⁠Facebook⁠ [https://www.facebook.com/EastsideChristian] or ⁠Instagram⁠ [https://www.instagram.com/eastsidechristianchurch/].

Dads Lead, Love & Last

On this Father’s Day, Jason challenges men to lead, to love and to last faithfully. Lasting means being dependable — showing up, putting your family first, and staying steady through every season. Jason reflects on the example of his grandfather, whose life modeled these virtues in powerful ways. Proverbs 27:17 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b_g-Fl_RJ88&t=1637s] - Iron sharpens iron and one man sharpens another.

Truth Vs Lies // Identity Is Fluid

In today’s message, Jason reveals a consistent pattern in how truth gets twisted—beginning with the serpent in the Garden of Eden. The enemy seeks to distort and destroy in any way possible, and today we examine one of those distortions: the modern idea that identity is fluid. Genesis 3: 1-5 - Now the serpent was more crafty than any other beast of the field that the Lord God had made. He said to the woman, “Did God actually say, ‘You shall not eat of any tree in the garden’?” And the woman said to the serpent, “We may eat of the fruit of the trees in the garden, but God said, ‘You shall not eat of the fruit of the tree that is in the midst of the garden, neither shall you touch it, lest you die.’” But the serpent said to the woman, “You will not surely die. For God knows that when you eat of it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil.” We'd love to connect with you today, send us a message or comment via ⁠⁠Facebook⁠⁠ [https://www.facebook.com/EastsideChristian] or ⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠ [https://www.instagram.com/eastsidechristianchurch/].
