Fail Forward Pt. 3 – When We Fail (07/19/26)

Fail Forward Pt. 3 – When We Fail (07/19/26)

July 19, 2026 Everyone fails. Some failures are public. Others are hidden. But all of us know what it feels like to fall short, carry regret, or wonder if we've gone too far for God to use us again. In Week 3 of our Fail Forward series, we walk alongside Peter through one of the darkest moments of his life—from confidently promising his loyalty to denying Jesus three times, and ultimately discovering the restoring grace of Christ. Through Luke 22 and John 21, we see that failure is not the end of the story. Jesus was praying for Peter before he ever fell, restoring him after he repented, and calling him back into His mission. Failure may be part of your story, but it does not have to define your future. In Christ, our brokenness becomes a place of transformation, and our greatest failures can become the very places where God's grace is most clearly displayed.

Fail Forward Pt. 2 – The Potter’s Hands (07/12/26)

July 12, 2026 Have you ever wondered if your mistakes, failures, or brokenness have made you unusable? In Jeremiah 18:1–6, God invites the prophet into a potter's workshop to reveal a powerful truth: when the clay is marred, the Potter doesn't throw it away—He reshapes it. In this message, we explore how God meets us in our brokenness, patiently forming us into the people He created us to be. Failure is not your identity. In the hands of the Master Potter, your story is still being written. Join us as we discover the hope of God's restoring grace and the promise that no life surrendered to Him is ever beyond redemption.

Fail Forward Pt. 1 – A New Master (07/05/26)

July 5, 2026 Failure has a way of convincing us that our past defines our future. We carry guilt, shame, regret, and broken habits as though they still own us. But the gospel tells a different story. In the opening message of our Fail Forward series, we explore Romans 6:12–18 and discover that through Jesus Christ, sin is no longer our master. We are not simply forgiven—we have been given a new identity, a new allegiance, and a new freedom to live differently. Join us as we examine what it means to stop fighting for victory and begin living from the victory Christ has already won. No matter where you've been or how many times you've fallen, God invites you to move forward—not because you've become perfect, but because you belong to a new Master.

Anchored Pt. 4 – Anchored in Trust (06/28/26)

June 28, 2026 This week, we conclude our Anchored series with Jesus’ invitation to trust in Matthew 6:25-34. In a world marked by uncertainty, anxiety, and the pressure to control tomorrow, Jesus offers a radically different way of living. Rather than simply tell us to “stop worrying,” he points us to the faithful heart of our heavenly Father. Together we’ll explore why worry reveals what we trust most, how the gospel frees us from the burden of carrying tomorrow on our own, and what it means to seek God’s Kingdom first. When our hope, confidence, and identity are anchored in Christ, our future can be anchored in trust.

Anchored Pt. 3 – Anchored in Identity (06/21/26)

June 21, 2026 In a world that constantly asks, What have you accomplished?, the Apostle Paul invites us to ask a different question: Who are you becoming? In Week 3 of our ANCHORED series, we explore Philippians 3:7-14 and discover that following Jesus is not about building an impressive résumé or dwelling on our past successes and failures. Instead, it is about centering our lives on Christ and pursuing a lifelong relationship with Him. Paul reminds us that our identity is not something we earn through performance or achievement. We have already been claimed by Christ, and because we belong to Him, we can spend the rest of our lives growing in faith, becoming more like Jesus, and pressing forward with hope. When Christ is at the center, everything else finds its proper place.
