Fight Based on Truth

Something Greater Is Here

The religious leaders asked Jesus for a sign, but their problem wasn't a lack of evidence. It was a lack of willingness. In Matthew 12:38-42, Jesus points to Jonah, the people of Nineveh, and the Queen of the South to reveal a powerful truth: God has already provided enough evidence to respond in faith. The question is not whether God is speaking. The question is whether our hearts are willing to listen. In this message, we'll explore the danger of hardened hearts, why truth exposes what we truly treasure, and why Jesus—greater than Jonah, greater than Solomon, and greater than any sign—demands a response from every one of us.

The Unforgivable Sin

What did Jesus mean when He warned about blasphemy against the Holy Spirit? In this message, we explore one of the most challenging passages in Scripture and discover that the unforgivable sin is not about a single mistake or moment of doubt. Instead, Jesus warns against a lifelong rejection of the Holy Spirit's work of conviction and His testimony about Christ. We'll also examine how our words reveal the condition of our hearts, why repentance matters, and how the grace of Jesus remains greater than any sin. Key Scripture: Matthew 12:31-37

Rich in Mercy - Even for the Unseen

In Luke 8, Jesus surrounds Himself with people society overlooked — doubters, outsiders, ordinary workers, and unseen women who helped build the Kingdom of God. This message explores how Jesus values the people others ignore and how His mercy doesn’t just restore people, it empowers them. If you’ve ever felt unseen, disconnected, or unimportant, this message is for you. Series: Rich in Mercy Scripture: Luke 8:1–3

Rich in Mercy - Even for a Sinner

A sinful woman crashes a dinner party, falls at the feet of Jesus, and worships Him while an entire room watches in shock. Some judged her. Some stood by silently. Jesus saw her differently. In this message from Luke 7, we explore what mercy really looks like, why forgiven people love differently, and the question every person in the room had to answer: Which one are you?
