This weekend, Pastor Jimmy reminded us that Romans 10 gives incredible clarity about who Jesus is and how we can know God. That clarity creates real urgency—because while everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved, many around us still haven’t heard. And that urgency is what drives us to action through church planting, so more people have the opportunity to hear, believe, and call on Jesus.

As we conclude our Rise Up series, Pastor Joe teaches from 1 Peter 5 and reminds us that while believers live in an increasingly hostile world, the greatest battle isn’t just happening around us — it’s happening within us. Peter shifts the focus away from culture and toward the heart, calling the church to humility, trust, and spiritual alertness.

As we continue our Rise Up series, Pastor Zach draws on 1 Peter 4:12-19 and reminds us that suffering is an inevitable part of life, but not all suffering is the same—some comes from our own choices, some from others, and some for the sake of our faith. He emphasizes that while suffering itself is not good, God is faithful and works through it for a greater purpose, inviting us to entrust our lives to him even in hardship.

As we continue our Rise Up series, Pastor Larry Osborne unpacks 1 Peter 4:1–11, reminding us to endure suffering with the mindset of Christ. We’re called to arm ourselves with his resolve — choosing forgiveness over bitterness, hope over despair, and obedience over comfort. This message challenges us to live not for our own desires but for the will of God, trusting that every trial strengthens our faith and shapes us to be more like Jesus.

As we continue our Rise Up series, Pastor Zach teaches from 1 Peter 3:13–22 about finding courage in the face of fear. We’re not called to blend in, but to live with conviction and compassion even when it costs us something. When obedience goes first, God’s protection and provision follow — every single time.

This week in our Rise Up series, Pastor Joe unpacks 1 Peter 3:1–12 and the transforming power of true beauty, strength, and community. Real change starts when we let God shape our hearts, love others like Jesus, and live with humility and unity. When we do, our homes, relationships, and even our world begin to look more like him.

As we continue our series, Rise Up, Pastor Zach reminds us that God has a vision—not just for who we are, but for who we can become. Teaching from 1 Peter 2:13–25, he shows that God’s strategy for transformation isn’t power or control, but submission and trust in him, even when life feels unjust. Just as Christ suffered and entrusted himself to God, we’re called to rise up by living differently—honoring others, doing good, and letting our lives point people back to him.

As we continue our new series, Rise Up, Pastor Joe reminds us from 1 Peter 2:4-12 that Jesus is our cornerstone, the solid foundation we lean on through every storm. We are called to be a chosen people who proclaim Jesus name, love others, and shine with resilience and generosity in a culture that desperately needs him.
