The Altar Comes First | Summer in the Story

The Altar Comes First | Summer in the Story

Before the Israelites laid a single stone to rebuild the temple, they did something else first—they rebuilt the altar. They worshiped, sacrificed, prayed, and gave offerings before the construction even began. In this message, Pastor Mark unpacks Ezra 3 and reveals a life-changing principle: the altar must always come before the foundation. Whether it's a decision you're facing, a dream you're pursuing, or a challenge in your home or church—what you do first determines everything that follows.

Faith over Fear | Faithful in the Fire

What happens when obedience to God puts you at odds with the culture around you? Will fear shape your decisions—or will faith? In this powerful conclusion to our Daniel series, we explore the most famous story from Daniel's life: the lion's den. But this isn't really about lions. It's about what happens when faithfulness becomes costly, when following Jesus means standing out, and when the world tries to silence your faith rather than destroy it.PickNaz Church exists to live like Jesus, love like Jesus, and lead people to Jesus.
