Empowered to Witness

IYKYK

In this message, Creative Director Traveon McNeil explores Jesus' teaching on the Kingdom of Heaven and challenges us to move beyond simply listening to God's Word toward truly hearing, seeing, and understanding it. Through Scripture, Traveon unpacks God's desire to dwell with His people and reminds us that followers of Jesus are called to carry "little pockets of heaven" into everyday spaces. As we make room to hear God's voice and slow down enough to recognize His work, we become participants in revealing His Kingdom to the world.

A Contrite Heart

What is God trying to reveal when our hearts feel distant, divided, or resistant to change? In this message, Lay Leader Anna Guerrero walks through Elijah's confrontation on Mount Carmel and God's call to Israel to return to Him with a contrite and repentant heart. Through the story of Elijah's obedience, Anna challenges us to examine the idols, pride, control, and self-reliance that can quietly compete for God's place in our lives. This message is an invitation to surrender, repentance, and renewed intimacy with the Lord as He restores what has been broken and draws our hearts back to Him.

From Stone to Flesh

What if Pentecost is not just about power, but about God’s presence moving into the hearts of his people? In this message, Pastor John Williams teaches from Jeremiah, Ezekiel, Acts 2, and 2 Corinthians to show how God fulfills his promise to move from stone tablets to transformed hearts. Through Jesus, the Holy Spirit now dwells within believers, making us new, drawing us near, and empowering us to live as Spirit-filled witnesses in the world.

The Sound before The Suddenly

What kind of heart makes room for God to move? In this message, Pastor John Williams teaches from Acts 1 and 2, showing that before the “suddenly” of Pentecost came a sound of hunger, unity, and prayer. The disciples could not manufacture the move of God, but they could remain open, surrendered, and expectant. This sermon invites us to resist spiritual comfort, return to dependence on the Holy Spirit, and become a people prepared for God’s presence together.

Empowered to Witness

What are you doing with the breath you have left? In this message, Lay Leader Jawon Bradley calls the church back to its shared mission: to be witnesses of Jesus through the power of the Holy Spirit. From Acts 1:8, he reminds us that witnessing is not reserved for pastors, evangelists, or the especially bold. Every believer is called to proclaim the gospel, live a set-apart life, and carry the hope of Christ into homes, neighborhoods, workplaces, schools, and everyday conversations.
