Descripción

“Obey when it’s uncomfortable.” This sermon explores what faithfulness looks like when the Spirit asks for action without providing the full explanation. The focus should remain on Ananias rather than Saul—an ordinary disciple who listens, hesitates honestly, and obeys despite fear and uncertainty. This week should help people name the reality that obedience often comes one step at a time, and that waiting for full clarity can actually mean falling behind. The tone should be pastoral and courage-building, affirming that hesitation does not disqualify faithfulness.

Good stewards manage God’s resources | Sunday Livestream | Jun 21, 2026

This week is about stewarding the resources God has entrusted to us. In Genesis 41, Joseph stands before Pharaoh with everything on the line—and instead of claiming credit or chasing opportunity, he points everything back to God and faithfully stewards what’s placed in his hands. Faced with years of abundance and coming famine, Joseph uses God-given wisdom to manage resources in a way that ultimately saves lives. This message explores how easily we are pulled into thinking “what I have is mine,” relying on our own understanding, and using resources for ourselves—and how Joseph shows a better way. True stewardship begins when we recognize that everything we have is entrusted by God, shaped by His wisdom, and meant for His purposes—and that getting back on that path starts with one simple, faithful step.

The relationships in your life | Sunday Livestream | Jun 14, 2026

This week’s message explores what it means to steward our relationships as something entrusted to us by God. Using the story of Jonah, we see a man who resisted God not out of disbelief, but because he did not want to engage with people he found difficult or undeserving. The sermon challenges the assumption that we get to decide who we care about, confronts the ways we either “steal” relationships by handling them according to our own desires or “neglect” them by avoiding responsibility, and invites us into faithful stewardship—intentionally taking responsibility for our role in people’s lives under Christ’s lordship. The goal is to help the church reflect on whether they are acting as owners, victims, or stewards in their relationships, and to take one step toward engaging others with the compassion and purpose of God.
