But the story of Hagar in Genesis 16 reminds us that God is not distant or blind to our struggles. She gave Him a new name: “The God Who Sees Me.”In this message from our series Hope Makes a Comeback, we explore how God meets us in our darkest moments, reminds us we are never alone, and calls us to stop running and trust Him. No matter what you’ve been through, God sees you, knows you, and loves you. There’s hope for your story too.

In fact, sometimes following Him brings new challenges. Just ask Abraham—God promised to make him a great nation, but it took 25 years, countless failures, and moments of doubt before the promise was fulfilled.In this message from our Hope Makes a Comeback series, we discover how God uses waiting, testing, and even our failures to grow our faith and anchor our hope in Him. His promises never fail—even when the process takes longer than we expect.

But even from the very beginning of Scripture, God promised hope. In this message from our series “Hope Makes a Comeback,” we go back to Genesis 1–3 to see how God created the world as good, how sin entered and broke it, and how God gave the first promise of a Savior.

Jesus knows that pain — and He has a place for you at His table.In this message, we dive into Luke 14 and explore the Parable of the Great Banquet, where Jesus shows us that His Kingdom is for the outsider, the overlooked, and the broken.

In Luke 5:36–39, Jesus teaches the Parable of the New Wineskins, showing us that His Kingdom can’t simply be added onto old ways of living. He didn’t come to patch up our past—He came to make us NEWIn this message, we explore: • Why Jesus spoke about new wine and old wineskins • The danger of clinging to old habits, traditions, or idols • How to embrace the new life Christ offers through the cross • What it means to step boldly into the future God has for you Sun, 24 Aug 2025 12:00:00 +0000 https://media.podpoint.com/download/6b2a02a91a7f86a33d13d81ec0287023.mp3 https://media.podpoint.com/download/47fd26e77f1d5ab3a27de898d461191d.mp3 Darkness tries to keep us silent, hidden, and afraid… but Jesus calls us to be the light of the world. In this message, Pastor Jordan unpacks the Parable of the Lampstand (Matthew 5:14–16 & Mark 4:21–25) and reminds us why we can’t hide our faith. Whether it’s fear, shame, or doubt holding you back, God has given you His Spirit so that your light can shine brightly in a world that desperately needs hope.

One day, you will stand before Him and give an account. Will you hear, “Well done, good and faithful servant”?

In Matthew 25:1–13, Jesus tells the sobering story of the ten virgins. All looked the part. All had lamps. All expected to meet the Bridegroom. But only five were truly ready. This message unpacks the deeper meaning behind the oil, the lamps, and what it really means to know Jesus versus just looking like you do. Are you living on borrowed faith? Are you spiritually prepared, or spiritually pretending? Whether you’re wrestling with your salvation, coasting on tradition, or just feeling spiritually dry — this word will challenge and awaken you. Don’t wait until it’s too late.
