The pastor reflects on Matthew 28:18–20 and Acts 1:8 and reaffirms the church mission: to know Christ, share His love, and make Him known.

The sermon closes with practical invitations to serve locally or abroad, an encouragement to live missionally in everyday life, a time of prayer, and information on where to find the sermon online.

episode The Harvest Is Plentiful - June 14, 2026 artwork

The Harvest Is Plentiful - June 14, 2026

In this sermon the speaker explores Matthew 9–10, emphasizing that Jesus' compassion for the crowds precedes His call to action: the harvest is plentiful but the workers are few. He explains that God uses ordinary people, calls us to pray before acting, and reminds us that holiness leads to outward mission. The message challenges listeners to notice needs around them, listen, pray, and freely share the grace they have received by serving neighbors, mentoring youth, and engaging their communities for the sake of the gospel.

episode A Better Heart - June 7, 2026 artwork

A Better Heart - June 7, 2026

Pastor examines Hebrews 8 to contrast the external rules of the old covenant with the internal transformation of the new covenant. Using a chore-chart analogy, the sermon explains how the law reveals sin but cannot change the heart, while Jesus and the Holy Spirit bring forgiveness and new desires written on the heart. The talk outlines practical ways God rewrites lives—through the indwelling Spirit, a new identity in Christ, a community of grace, and daily surrender—and invites listeners to surrender, trust, and receive God’s mercy and forgiveness today. “A Better Heart” Hebrews 8:1–13 The new covenant doesn’t just tell you what God wants; it changes what you want. 1. Introduction: The Chore Chart 2. The Problem with the Old Covenant (vv. 7–9) * The law was good, but it stayed * Israel’s history proves the point. * Many believers today live like old-covenant Christians. III. The Promise of the New Covenant (vv. 10–12) * “I will put my laws into their minds and write them on their hearts” * “I will be their God, and they shall be my people” * “I will be merciful… I will remember their sins no more” 1. The Practice of Heart Writing * God writes on your heart through the indwelling Holy Spirit. * God writes on your heart through a new identity in Christ. * God writes on your heart through a community of grace. * God writes on your heart through daily 1. Conclusion and Invitation * Where do you need God to write something new on your heart today? * Trust. Receive. “Jesus, I need You. I can’t change myself. I believe You died for my sins and rose again. I receive Your forgiveness. I surrender my life to You. Write Your life on my heart. Make me new. I trust You today. Amen.”   “God’s new covenant doesn’t just change your behavior—it changes your want‑to.” Find other Podcasts, Sermon Notes and the Bulletin here. https://www.mvcnaz.org/live [https://www.mvcnaz.org/live] Stay in touch with our Church Center App at https://www.mvcnaz.org/churchcenter [https://www.mvcnaz.org/churchcenter] Contact us through our CONNECT form at https://www.mvcnaz.org/connect [https://www.mvcnaz.org/connect]   With Pastor Mike Curry.

episode TAG! God's It! - May 31, 2026 artwork

TAG! God's It! - May 31, 2026

It is my privilege to invite you to today's sermon podcast where a playful relay-tag leads into a serious message: trust God one step at a time. Using Proverbs 3:5-6 and Psalm 119:105, the pastor explains the acronym TAG — Trust, Acknowledge, God — and encourages listeners to pause before decisions, lean on God rather than their own understanding, and follow His guidance. Through a mix of practical examples, prayer for graduates and families, and reminders that God provides light for the next step, this episode offers hope and a simple action: trust God with your next step and let Him direct your path. “TAG!  God’s It!” Proverbs 3:5–6; Psalm 119:105 Big Idea: God promises to guide us one step at a time when we trust Him. Introduction: Do you want to play TAG? T -  Trust God More Than Your Own Understanding (Proverbs 3:5) * The first step in God’s guidance is trust. * God is trustworthy when life feels uncertain. * Pray: “Lord, I trust You with what I cannot see.” (Hebrews 11:1) A -  Acknowledge God in Every Part of Life (Proverbs 3:6a) * To acknowledge God means to recognize Him in everything we do, everywhere. * God cares about everyday decisions, not just church moments. * Before decisions, pause and pray: “Lord, I acknowledge You in this. Show me what honors You.” G -  God Promises to Direct the Path (Proverbs 3:6b; Psalm 119:105) * God does not promise an easy path, but He does promise guidance. * He gives enough light for the next step, even when He does not reveal the whole map. * Move forward in obedience with the light God gives today. Conclusion Trust God with your next step and He will lead your whole journey.   Find other Podcasts, Sermon Notes and the Bulletin here. https://www.mvcnaz.org/live [https://www.mvcnaz.org/live] Stay in touch with our Church Center App at https://www.mvcnaz.org/churchcenter [https://www.mvcnaz.org/churchcenter] Contact us through our CONNECT form at https://www.mvcnaz.org/connect [https://www.mvcnaz.org/connect]   With Pastor Mike Curry.
