WHY SHOULD GOD LET YOU INTO HEAVEN? || Rob Renfroe || Romans 3

WELCOME THE NEWCOMER || Phill Kwon || Ruth 2

In this message from Ruth 2, guest preacher Phill Kwon walks through one of the most quietly powerful stories in all of Scripture — not a story of miracles or fire from the sky, but of a man who knew God's heart well enough to see a newcomer, welcome her into his community, and show her radical, extravagant generosity. Boaz didn't wait for a program to take care of Ruth. He didn't assume someone else would say hello. He simply saw her — and moved toward her. This message explores what it means to be a church that reflects the heart of El Roi, the God who sees, and what it looks like in practice to welcome the stranger, the visitor, and the newcomer the way God does.

NO CHARGE, NO CONDEMNATION || Jeff Wells || Romans 8

Many of us carry guilt that Christ has already paid for. We hear the accusing voices — from our own conscience, from past failures, from an enemy who wants to keep us chained to what God has already forgiven. But Romans 8:33–34 asks two of the most liberating questions in all of Scripture: Who shall bring any charge against God's elect? Who is to condemn? In this message, Pastor Jeff Wells walks through what it means that God has justified us completely — and why that changes everything. Because of four unshakable truths about Jesus — he died, he was raised, he is seated at the right hand of God, and he is interceding for us right now — no charge can stand and no condemnation can hold. The blood of Jesus has already washed it all away. This message explores the difference between God's voice and the accuser's voice, why guilt is not God's solution for sin, and how the grace of God is bigger than any failure we've carried.

WE NEED EACH OTHER || Justin Kessler

Most of us will never do something the world calls great. But every one of us can do small things — with great love. In this message from 2 Timothy 1, Pastor Justin Kessler unpacks one of the most underestimated truths in the church today: we need each other more than we realize. From Paul writing his final letter to a young, fearful Timothy in prison, to a Post-it note on a gas station pump that brought a grown man to tears — this message is a reminder that ordinary, faithful investment in the people right in front of us is how God actually builds his kingdom.

FOR US || Jeff Wells || Romans 8

Four words hold more weight than we often realize: God is for us. Not against us. Not indifferent. For us. In this message from Romans 8:31–32, Pastor Jeff Wells walks through what John Piper called the most inspiring verse in all the Bible — and what it means that the God who did not spare his own Son will freely give us everything we truly need. We do have enemies. We do face hardship. But none of that changes the posture of God toward us. He has set his love upon us and he will not remove it.

LOVING YOUR KIDS || Jeff Wells || Mother's Day

Most parents deeply love their children — but love isn't just a feeling. It's a practice. In this Mother's Day message from Matthew 22:36–40, Pastor Jeff Wells unpacks ten practical ways parents express love to their kids, drawn from Scripture, research, and decades of pastoral wisdom. From tender affection and firm discipline, to focused listening, being present, and knowing when to say "I'm sorry" — this message is honest, practical, and full of grace for every parent in the room. Whether you feel like you're doing well or falling short, this is a reminder that the goal isn't perfection. It's love — and God gives the grace to love well.
