In a culture obsessed with self-optimization and comfort, the Holy Spirit calls us to something radically different—sacrificial mission. The Spirit’s work isn’t about making you feel good; it’s about empowering you to live a life that looks more like Jesus, full of risk, discomfort, and love for the outsider, and brings radical renewal! Are you ready for that kind of life?

Paraphrasing John 1:14, Eugene Peterson said, “The Word became flesh and moved into our neighborhood.” Like Christ, God is calling his church to be a missionary presence in their cities, at their jobs, among their family, friends, co-workers and neighbors. This only happens when believers are committed to going, staying, and being present in the world like Jesus.

When we fail to see the Bible as one grand story about a loving God moving to reconcile creation back to himself, we fail to be a missional people. Join us as we stop wondering how to get to heaven and start learning how to partner with God to bring heaven to earth.

Are you constantly striving but never truly satisfied? This message dives into the wisdom of the 10th commandment, revealing how it holds the secret to finding true contentment in a world that always wants more. Discover how ancient truths can transform your modern life.

Why does the truth matter? It matters because the 9th Commandment calls us to live beyond just telling the truth. The truth will reveal, invite and ultimately point us to the embodiment of truth.

The 8th commandment is not just about illegally taking something from someone. When we steal from other people, we’re not just sinning against them, we’re sinning against God. This is because it is God who created them in His image, it is God who gave them what they have, and it is God who gave them value. When we wrongfully take what is rightfully theirs, we devalue people, we harm them, and we tear the image of God. Let’s diving deep into the command, “You shall not steal”, and let’s discover together how liberating it is to start doing the opposite, to start giving generously, as Christ gave generously of Himself.

What if honoring your parents could transform your life and society as a whole? Dive into "The Unexpected Commandment" to discover why this biblical principle is more than just a familial duty for some, and a command that is impossible to uphold for others, but a key to transformation. Join us for a thought-provoking exploration of the fifth commandment.

Freedom // The Sanctity of Life // Pastor Philip Muela by Inspire Churches

Text: Matthew 5:27-28; 1 Peter 2:1-3 What if adultery is not merely infidelity in marriage but a worldview that decimates the human condition? If so, it would be wise and warranted to consider where such a worldview comes from and how the Gospel gives us radical hope and true freedom.

The fourth commandment is not just about observing the Sabbath on that day; it’s about anticipating it. Sabbath is coming, whether we like it or not! How we anticipate the Sabbath day determines how we will observe this holy day. When we rest in the goodness of God, we will experience rest on the day of Sabbath. Rest-to-rest becomes a cycle, a rhythm. Join us as we discover how God’s command to remember the Sabbath can be a liberating and restful experience.

The third commandment commands us to not take the name of the LORD in vain, but is it really just about a name? The name of God and His nature are the same so if you profane the name you profane God himself. The third commandment not only gives a (1) warning but also highlights the (2) wonder of God and since we live in a fallen world we need an outside (3) way to experience the freedom of God through joyful obedience.

"Are you worshiping the right Jesus? Today we tackle the second commandment and the intriguing concept of our flawed mental images of God. We'll explore how these misconceptions contribute to life's struggles and how embracing the true image of God through Jesus Christ can liberate us. Join us to find out how proper worship can dismantle fear, bitterness, and insecurity."

The first commandment is the greatest commandment of them all. In breaking this commandment, we will inevitably break them all. All evil and injustice come as the result of humanity turning from the one true God and trusting in lesser deities.

Modern culture defines freedom as living without restrictions, but the bible teaches us that freedom is enjoyed most in the presence of restrictions. Join us as we discuss how God’s law can free us to flourish.

One of the most famous parables of Jesus is also one that is often least understood. In the parable of the Lost Son, Jesus challenges everything we think we know about God and ourselves causing us to redefine what it means to be lost and what it takes to be found.

Jesus often graciously confronted sin while radically disrupting the religious status quo. While the religious elite loathed him for associating with sinners, Jesus loved to spend time with those who were far from God. Join us as we define the mission of Christ and reveal the heart of God.

For many their job is just a way to pay the bills, while for others it is a way to find identity and purpose. Due to this we have created a sacred/secular divide to categorize work as something separate from spiritual formation. But the Bible shows us how that is a false dichotomy and how your work is your worship.

Since death is a universal human experience, everyone in the world will at some point in their life have to cope with grief. The question is not if you grieve, but when you grieve, will you grieve in hope? Join us as we discuss death, grief, and the afterlife.
