It's Just a Shadow

Endless Pursuit

Surely goodness and mercy shall follow you all the days of your life. In this message from our Psalm 23 series, Pastor Alex Wilson unpacks what David meant when he said only goodness and mercy will pursue us. The Hebrew word for follow means to happily hunt. God does not chase you to harm you. He pursues you the way the Hound of Heaven pursues, unhurried and relentless, all the way to the cross. If you have ever felt too dirty or too far gone, this one is for you. housechurchkauai.com This is a public episode.

How to Know You're Safe in Christ

Pslams 23 Week 5. You don’t always feel safe following Jesus, but feeling safe and being safe are two different things. In this message from Psalm 23:5, we walk through 4 things God wants you to know so you can stop waiting on the cliff and jump: you’re fed, you’re gated, you’re anointed, and you’re quenched. Walk by faith, not by feelings. housechurchkauai.com This is a public episode.

It's Just a Shadow

In Psalm 23:4, David shifts from talking *about* God to talking *to* God — and shows us how to walk through the darkest seasons of life without fear. Pastor Alex Wilson teaches that death hit Jesus on the cross so that for the believer, what's left is only a shadow. Whether you're in a season of grief, anxiety, broken relationships, financial stress, or spiritual darkness, this message will remind you that our God is not distant. He is the God of the valley — the One who steps off the mountain and walks with His sheep through every shadow.Topics covered:- Why Christianity is not a prosperity gospel- The omnipresence of God in dark seasons- The meaning of the shepherd's rod and staff- How the cross changes the way God deals with us- Why God *wants* to be with you in the mess—House Church Kauai is a family-integrated church gathering in a garage on Kauai, Hawaii and Pastor by Alex Wilson of AMEN PODCAST.

How to Actually Rest

You’re not resting because you’re hungry, hunted, anxious, or afraid — and you can’t fix any of those on your own. In part two of our series through Psalm 23, we slow down on a single line: “He makes me lie down in green pastures. He leads me beside still waters.” Drawing from Philip Keller’s A Shepherd Looks at Psalm 23, we look at the four things a sheep needs before it will lie down — food, freedom from foes, freedom from flies, and freedom from fear — and how each one points us straight to Christ. We’ll talk about why sheep can’t find pasture on their own, why Jesus called Himself “the door of the sheep” in John 10, and what the nose botfly has to do with the anxieties you didn’t ask for and can’t shake. We’ll see how Hebrews 2:14–15 promises freedom from the fear of death, and why rest isn’t something you achieve — it’s somewhere the Shepherd leads you. On the cross, Jesus entered our unrest so we could enter His rest. If you’re tired, this one’s for you. Filmed from the garage at House Church Kauai.
