Open Eyes

Sam kicks off our new series, Open Eyes & Burning Hearts, with a powerful message from Luke 24 and the story of the road to Emmaus. Exploring the disappointment, confusion, and crushed expectations experienced by two disciples after Jesus’ crucifixion, Sam reminds us that Jesus is often closest when we least recognize Him. This message challenges us to see beyond our circumstances, trust God even when life doesn’t unfold the way we hoped, and discover that our hope is not behind us—it’s still ahead of us in Christ. Through biblical insight and practical encouragement, Sam shows how God meets us in our disappointments, walks with us through them, and uses them to shape our faith. If you've ever wondered where God is in the middle of unanswered questions or difficult seasons, this message is a powerful reminder to keep your eyes open and your heart burning for Him.

Refined By A Fire

Will continues our “There Is A Flame” series with a powerful message titled “Refined By A Fire,” looking at the life of Peter and the process God uses to shape and restore us. Walking through Peter’s boldness, failures, denial of Jesus, and ultimate restoration, Will reminds us that God doesn’t discard broken people — He refines them. This message explores how God often burns away pride, self-reliance, and fear before igniting us with purpose and passion for His kingdom.

Another in the Fire

Sam continues our “There Is A Flame” series with a powerful message from Daniel 3 on Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego in the fiery furnace. In a world pressuring them to conform, these three men chose conviction over compromise — trusting that God was with them no matter the outcome. Sam unpacks what it means to carry a fire within that burns stronger than the pressure around us, reminding us that God doesn’t always rescue us from the fire, but He is always with us in it.
