Going Deeper: When God Feels Far Away (with Larry Vold)

When God feels far away, Psalm 13 gives us language for honest lament—teaching us to tell Him how we feel, ask Him for what we need, trust Him regardless, and worship Him now.

Going Deeper: When Everything Feels Heavy (with Danny Strange)

When everything feels heavy, Psalm 42 gives us words for seasons where God feels far away and faith feels dry. In this message, we’re reminded that faithful people can walk through darkness, but God is still near even when we can’t feel Him. The psalmist shows us how to speak truth to our own soul, remember God’s faithfulness, and keep walking toward hope.

When Everything Feels Heavy (Full Sermon)

Some seasons resist every effort to feel better. Psalm 42 gives us language for the weight — honest prayer that doesn't bypass the darkness but holds on to God in the middle of it. Honest to God Lens: Honest prayer doesn't bypass the darkness — it holds on to God inside of it. From our "Honest To God" series • Danny Strange

Going Deeper: When You're Anxious and Affraid (with Austin Payne)

When fear and anxiety feel overwhelming, Psalm 46 reminds us that God is not distant from our trouble—He is present in the middle of it. This message looks at what it means to bring our fear honestly before God and discover that peace comes not from control, but from knowing Him in the shaking. Anxiety is not the opposite of faith; it is often exactly where faith begins.

When You're Anxious or Afraid (Full Sermon)

Anxiety is not a sign of weak faith. Psalm 46 points us to a God who is a present help, not a distant solution — and invites us into a stillness that is trust, not denial. Fear is not the absence of faith; it is often the starting point. Psalm 91 does not minimize danger–it places the fearful in the shelter of the God who promises to be with us. Honest to God Lens: God is not a distant solution — He is a present help, and that changes everything. From our "Honest To God" series • Austin Payne
