Sundays at Grace

Minor Prophets, Major Pleas // Amos 1-9

Amos wasn’t a pastor, prophet, or religious celebrity. He was a farmer. A shepherd. An ordinary man with an extraordinary message from God. In this powerful message from the book of Amos, Pastor Zach challenges the modern tendency to separate worship from everyday life. Amos spoke to a nation that looked successful on the outside but was spiritually decaying on the inside. His message still echoes today: God is not impressed by worship that never reaches our neighbors, our calendars, or our wallets. This sermon is a call to humility, compassion, personal holiness, and renewed passion for sharing the Gospel. If you've ever wondered whether your faith is shaping the way you live Monday through Saturday, this message will challenge and encourage you. The church doesn't lose its power when it becomes unpopular—it loses its power when it becomes unfaithful.

NextGen Sunday // Overcoming | Pastor Marcus Ellington

Victory belongs to the people of God. In this encouraging message from NextGen Sunday, Pastor Marcus Ellington shares practical and biblical ways to overcome life's battles through the blood of Jesus, the power of God's Word, and a life filled with faith. If you've been feeling discouraged, weary, or tempted to quit, this message will remind you that God is still working, still listening, and still faithful. Keep praying. Keep trusting. Keep standing. God isn't finished yet.

NextGen Wednesday // Flash Forward | Pastor Scott Raney

What if you could see six months into your future? In this stand-alone message, Pastor Scott Raney explores the questions we all wrestle with: What’s next? Am I on the right path? Can I trust God when I can’t see where He’s leading? Using the idea of a “flash forward,” Pastor Scott walks through the lives of several often-overlooked people in Scripture who had no idea what God was preparing behind the scenes. From Anna’s faithfulness in the waiting, to Mordecai’s obedience in the ordinary, to Benaiah’s courage in the face of fear, each story reminds us that God is working even when we can’t see the full picture. This message is an encouraging reminder that while we may not know what tomorrow holds, we can trust the One who does. When the future feels uncertain, God remains faithful, His promises remain true, and His plans are still unfolding. Whether you're waiting on an answer, facing a difficult decision, or wondering what God is doing in your life right now, this message will encourage you to keep trusting Him one step at a time.

Minor Prophets, Major Pleas // Joel 1-3 | Pastor Marcus Ellington

This message through the book of Joel is both a warning and an invitation. Pastor Marcus Ellington walks through the devastation Israel experienced after a massive locust invasion and shows how Joel used that moment to point people toward something deeper: a wake-up call to return to God before their hearts drifted too far away. This sermon speaks directly to anyone who’s been going through the motions spiritually, hiding behind appearances, or trying to handle life without fully depending on God. From powerful moments about repentance and desperation for God to the reminder that God is still merciful, compassionate, and ready to restore what’s been broken, this message is both convicting and deeply hopeful. No matter how far you’ve wandered or how numb your heart has become, God is still calling you back to Him.

Minor Prophets, Major Pleas // Hosea 1-14

What do you do when your heart keeps running after things that can never truly satisfy? In this opening message of Minor Prophets, Major Pleas, Zach unpacks the shocking story of Hosea — a story that feels uncomfortable, messy, and deeply personal. Through Hosea’s relentless pursuit of Gomer, we see a picture of the relentless love of God toward wandering people. This sermon dives into the idols we quietly trust, the lesser loves we keep returning to, and the grace of a God who refuses to stop pursuing us. From heartbreak and addiction to shame and redemption, this message is a reminder that the gospel is not about climbing back to God — it’s about God coming after us again and again. If you’ve ever wondered whether God could still love you after all your failures, this message is for you.
