The Light & the Darkness — John 8:12-30 (06.14.2026)

Pastor Ben Presten: This sermon examines John 8:12-30, where Jesus declares, "I am the light of the world." It covers his confrontation with the Pharisees, the call to believe and follow Christ rather than a personal or modified Jesus, and the warning that rejecting him leads to dying in sin. The sermon points to the cross as the clearest revelation of the Father and invites listeners to turn from darkness to the light of life.

The Overflowing Christian — John 7:37-52 (06.07.2026)

Pastor Ben Presten: Jesus stands at the Feast and invites the thirsty to come, believe, and receive the Spirit so that the life of Christ fills them. As we drink deeply through Scripture by the Spirit, our hearts are renewed and overflow in words and actions that bless and testify to others.

Rivers of Living Water — John 7:1-39 (05.31.2026)

Guest Preacher Ben Whittinghill: This sermon explores how Jesus avoids public danger in Galilee, then quietly attends the Feast of Booths and teaches in the temple, speaking the Father’s words with authority. He challenges religious hypocrisy, explains his obedience to the Father, and on the feast’s final day invites the thirsty to come to him and receive the Spirit — rivers of living water for all who believe.

Jesus is True Bread - John 6:22-71 (05.24.2026)

Pastor Ben Presten: In this sermon on John 6:22–50, the preacher examines Jesus’ encounter with the crowds after the feeding of the 5,000, highlighting Jesus’ claim, "I am the bread of life," and what that means for true spiritual satisfaction. The message contrasts earthly motives with God’s sovereign drawing, teaches that faith (not works) is the work God requires, and urges listeners to cling to Christ even when his words are difficult to accept.

The Lord of the Storm - John 6:16-21 (05.17.2026)

Pastor Nathan Sing: This sermon on John 6 explores the feeding of the 5,000 and Jesus walking on the Sea of Galilee. Hearing the story of the disciples struggling in a storm, the message reminds listeners that Jesus sees our suffering, declares himself as God (“I AM”), and comes to meet us in our darkest hours. Obedience can lead through hardship but cultivates true discipleship, and Jesus’ presence brings control, comfort, and hope. The sermon closes with an invitation to trust the Savior who walks on our waves, cares deeply, and promises an end to suffering for those who follow him.
