Flipping The Script

Flipping The Script

The Book of Mark: Part 10 - June 21, 2026 We see Jesus enter Jerusalem as King, but not in the way the crowds expected. While the people hoped for political victory and immediate change, Jesus came to bring a deeper salvation. His cleansing of the temple revealed God's desire for a place where all people could encounter Him without barriers. The message challenges us to examine the narratives we create about Jesus and whether they truly align with who He is. Following Christ often means allowing Him to overturn assumptions, priorities, and attitudes in our own lives. Ultimately, discipleship begins when we embrace His story instead of insisting on our own.

A Shocking Encounter

The Book of Mark: Part 9 - June 14, 2026 We explore Jesus' conversation with the rich young ruler—a man who seemed to have everything, yet still felt something was missing. His sincere question about eternal life reveals a common misunderstanding that salvation can be earned through good behavior. Jesus lovingly exposes the one thing standing between the man and true freedom: his misplaced trust in wealth and security. Through this encounter, we learn that following Jesus requires surrender, not just morality. The message reminds us that salvation is only possible through God's grace, not our achievements. Ultimately, it challenges us to consider whether anything in our lives is competing with Jesus for first place.

Calming The Storm

Special Guest Speaker: Pastor Mike Chong Perkinson - June 7, 2026 Special guest speaker Pastor Mike Chong Perkinson reminds us that faith is not the absence of fear, but the decision to keep our eyes on God in the middle of life's storms. Looking at King Jehoshaphat's response to overwhelming circumstances in 2 Chronicles 20, we learn the importance of praising God, remembering His faithfulness, and trusting Him when we don't know what to do. Pastor Mike challenges believers to stop focusing on the size of their problems and start focusing on the greatness of God. Through powerful personal stories and biblical truth, he encourages us to remove the armor of self-reliance and fully surrender to God's strength. Even when life feels uncertain, God remains faithful. When we trust Him, we can find peace in the storm and courage to move forward in faith.

When Glory Breaks Through

The Book of Mark: Part 8 - May 31, 2026 Rich Nye explores the Transfiguration of Jesus and the powerful lessons it teaches about faith, suffering, and hope. For a brief moment, Peter, James, and John witness the glory of Christ unveiled, giving them a glimpse of God's coming Kingdom. This mountaintop experience prepared them for the difficult road that lay ahead. The message reminds us that Jesus stands above every other voice and deserves our complete trust and obedience. While life often feels more like a valley than a mountaintop, God gives us reminders of His presence and faithfulness along the way. Ultimately, the Transfiguration points us to the hope that glory comes after suffering.

Who Is Jesus To You?

The Book of Mark: Part 7 - May 24, 2026 We explore one of the most important questions Jesus ever asked. While many people have opinions about Jesus, not all of them reflect who He truly is. This message challenges the tendency to reshape Jesus into a version that fits our preferences or culture. Instead, we are invited to recognize Him as the true Messiah—the suffering Savior who gave His life for us. Following Jesus requires surrender, not just belief. Ultimately, how we answer this question shapes the direction of our entire lives.
