Learning to See

June 28, 2026 "Learning to See" - Pastor Rich Johnson When suffering enters our lives, we instinctively ask who's to blame — but Jesus says that's the wrong question entirely. In this message, Pastor Rich Johnson takes us into John 9, where a man born blind becomes a picture of what happens when we stop living in the geography of the wound and start asking what God might want to do next. Because healing comes through trust before it comes through understanding — and Jesus never stops looking for the ones everyone else has left behind. 🏠 Visit us at sanctuarycolumbus.com 📍 4142 Westerville Road, Columbus, OH 43224 📲 Follow us https://www.facebook.com/sanctuarycolumbus https://www.instagram.com/sanctuarycbus/ https://www.youtube.com/@SanctuaryColumbusChurch

Born Into It

Found in the Dirt

June 14, 2026 "Found in the Dirt" - Pastor Rich Johnson Most of us grew up with a definition of sin that focused on behavior — the rules we break and the punishment that follows. But in this message, Pastor Rich Johnson takes us from Genesis 3 to John 8 to show us that sin is far deeper than broken rules: it is a rupture in our relationship with God, ourselves, and one another. And Jesus came not just to forgive sin — but to free us from its grip and restore what it broke. 🏠 Visit us at sanctuarycolumbus.com 📍 4142 Westerville Road, Columbus, OH 43224 📲 Follow us https://www.facebook.com/sanctuarycolumbus https://www.instagram.com/sanctuarycbus/ https://www.youtube.com/@SanctuaryColumbusChurch

Which Jesus Do You Know?

May 31, 2026 "Which Jesus Do You Know?" - Pastor Rich Johnson All of us have been handed a version of Jesus before we ever had the chance to read him for ourselves — shaped by our upbringing, our culture, our politics, and our past experiences. In this message, Pastor Rich Johnson takes us into John 7, where Jesus walks into a crowd full of competing biases and refuses to be defined by any of them, giving us three tests to help us confront our own. The question underneath it all is simple and searching: is the Jesus you're following pointing to the Father — or is he pointing to you? 🏠 Visit us at sanctuarycolumbus.com 📍 4142 Westerville Road, Columbus, OH 43224 📲 Follow us https://www.facebook.com/sanctuarycolumbus https://www.instagram.com/sanctuarycbus/ https://www.youtube.com/@SanctuaryColumbusChurch

Hungry No More

May 24, 2026 "Hungry No More" - Pastor Rich Johnson You finally got the promotion. The hunger remained. You finally got the affirmation. The insecurity returned. You finally bought the thing you'd been wanting your whole life. The satisfaction faded. Sound familiar? We are the most highly resourced, endlessly entertained, and accessibly connected generation in human history. And we are quietly, persistently, and insatiably hungry. In this message, Pastor Rich Johnson takes us into the longest chapter in John's Gospel — and into one of the most confronting conversations Jesus ever had. The day after feeding 5,000 people with two fish and five loaves, the crowd came back looking for more. And Jesus looked at them and said something that stopped them cold: "You're looking for me — but not because you saw the signs. Because you had your fill." They were hungry for bread. But they didn't understand what they were really hungry for. Neither do we. In this message you'll learn: Why a full stomach still can't satisfy a starving soul — and what that reveals about our deepest desires What the Greek word for "believe" actually means — and why it's so much harder than checking things off a list Why Jesus didn't say he came to deliver bread or point to bread — but that he is the bread What Jesus's "I AM" declarations reveal about the specific human hungers only he can satisfy Why believing in Jesus doesn't mean escaping the broken material world — it means being sustained in it Whether you are exhausted from chasing things that keep leaving you empty, stuck in a checklist version of faith, or asking honest questions about what believing in Jesus actually does for real suffering — this message is for you. Because the door is still open. And whoever comes, Jesus says, he will never drive away. 📖 Scripture: John 6:25-51 🏠 Visit us at sanctuarycolumbus.com 📍 4142 Westerville Road, Columbus, OH 43224 📲 Follow us https://www.facebook.com/sanctuarycolumbus https://www.instagram.com/sanctuarycbus/ https://www.youtube.com/@SanctuaryColumbusChurch
