Descripción

In Week 3 of our “Made for This” series, Pastor Jason Smith explores the glory of God and the mission of the Church to make His glory known throughout the world. Using everything from Cristiano Ronaldo’s global influence to the vision of Heaven in Revelation 7, Pastor Jason reminds us that humanity was created for something far bigger than ourselves. What if the deepest purpose of our lives isn’t building our own kingdoms, but joining God’s mission to bring healing, hope, restoration, and freedom everywhere His glory is not yet fully known? This message challenges us to trade small ambitions for “holy ambition” — living lives centered on showing and sharing the love of Jesus across every barrier, culture, and generation. As Pastor Jason unpacks Scripture from Romans, Revelation, Isaiah, and the Great Commission, he paints a compelling picture of the future God is bringing: a world filled with His presence, where shame, division, loneliness, and brokenness are finally undone. And until that day comes fully, the Church is called to bring glimpses of that glory into homes, neighborhoods, foster systems, prisons, nations, and everyday relationships. This message is a powerful reminder that the Gospel is too good to keep to ourselves — and that when we live for the glory of God, we discover the satisfaction our hearts have always been searching for.

The End of Evil | Didn't See That Coming | Week 3

In week three of our Didn't See That Coming series, Pastor Jason Smith explores one of humanity's deepest questions: What will God ultimately do about evil? Through Habakkuk's vision, we're reminded that while injustice, suffering, and brokenness may seem powerful today, they do not get the final word. God's glory is already moving through the world, bringing restoration, renewal, and hope to everything sin has touched. This message encourages us to resist despair, trust God's greater story, and find peace in the truth that every "Babylon" eventually falls before the goodness and sovereignty of God. As we learn to be still before Him, we're invited to exchange fear and control for confidence in the God who is making all things new. If you've been wondering how much longer, this message offers a powerful reminder: the story isn't over, and God's glory is still at work.

Trust in the Tower | Didn't See That Coming | Week 2

In week two of our Didn't See That Coming series, Pastor Jason Smith explores what it means to trust God when the answers don't come as quickly—or as clearly—as we'd hoped. Looking at Habakkuk's journey from questioning to waiting, this message reminds us that faith is often formed in the "weight room" of life, where God develops our trust through seasons of uncertainty. When we can't understand God's methods or His timing, we can anchor ourselves in what never changes: His character. Through the powerful truth that "the righteous will live by faith," we're invited to rest not in our own strength, but in the faithfulness of Christ. If you're weary from waiting, struggling with unanswered prayers, or wondering what God is doing, this message offers hope, perspective, and encouragement to trust the One who sees the whole board when we can only see the next move.

Honest Faith | Didn't See That Coming | Week 1

Have you ever found yourself saying, "I didn't see that coming"? In week one of our series, Didn't See That Coming, Pastor Jason Smith takes us into the book of Habakkuk—a prophet who wasn't afraid to bring his questions, frustrations, and disappointments directly to God. When life doesn't go according to plan, prayers seem unanswered, and God feels silent, how do we hold on to faith? Through Habakkuk's honest lament, we're reminded that God can handle our questions, our grief, and even our anger. Honest faith isn't pretending everything is okay—it's bringing our real selves before God and trusting Him even when we don't understand His ways. If you're walking through uncertainty, disappointment, or a season where God's answer wasn't what you expected, this message offers hope, encouragement, and a practical pathway for bringing your heart honestly before Him.
