The Pace Setter — Pastor Josiah
Are you tired of running your spiritual race on empty? Grounded in 1 Corinthians 16:13, Pastor Josiah explores what it truly means to live with consistency, courage, and love—not through our own willpower, but through surrender to Jesus. Discover how God calls us to be "pacesetters" whose steady, Spirit-led lives naturally empower and encourage everyone around them to finish their race well. Tune in to learn how the Holy Spirit pours the strength and endurance we need directly into our hearts, transforming who we are from the inside out.

By the Word of their Testimony —P. Josiah
In this powerful message, Pastor Josiah reminds us that just as hikers need to pause and look back to see how far they've come, we need moments to recognize God's hand in our journey. Drawing from Lamentations 3:22-23, we're reminded that God's faithful love never ends, His mercies are new every morning, and great is His faithfulness. The testimonies shared—from miraculous healings and divine provision to seemingly small answered prayers about lost wallets and kazoos—illustrate a profound truth: God cares about every detail of our lives. Revelation 12:11 teaches us that we overcome by the blood of the Lamb and the word of our testimony, meaning that when we share what God has done, it strengthens not just us but everyone who hears.

Seated & Sent Pt 4: The Authority of Awareness —P. Josiah
In part four of this series, Pastor Josiah addresses the spiritual authority believers have over their thought life through Christ. Believers are seated with Christ in heavenly places and therefore possess spiritual weapons to pull down strongholds, cast down arguments, and bring every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ. Through awareness, rebuking in Jesus' name, and replacing lies with God's truth, believers can walk in the victory Christ has already won.

Seated & Sent Pt 3: Don't Stop at Halfway — P. Josiah
In part three of this series, Pastor Josiah examines the often-overlooked story of Terah, Abraham's father, who stopped halfway on his journey to Canaan. This message explores how individual obedience and steps of faith create ripples into future generations. We are challenged as believers to not settle for "as good as it gets" or remain stuck in places of pain, loss, and betrayal. Instead, are called to continue forward in faith, trusting that Jesus is "the way" who brings healing and restoration

Seated & Sent Pt. 2: Ordinary Hands, Extraordinary Power — P. Josiah
In part two of this series, Pastor Josiah emphasizes that Jesus's victory over sin, death, and the grave includes provision for physical and emotional healing. Through Christ's work on the cross, believers have inherited delegated authority to pray for the sick and see them recover. This is not reserved for special Christians or church leaders, but is available to all who believe.

Seated & Sent Pt. 1: The Position of Victory — P. Josiah
In part one of this sermon series, Pastor Josiah explores the transformative truth that believers are not victims of their circumstances but victors through Christ Jesus. This message emphasizes that Jesus became our "holy substitute" (propitiation), taking our place and securing complete victory over sin, death, and all opposing forces. Because believers are spiritually seated with Christ in heavenly places, they possess delegated authority to speak into situations that contradict God's Word.

Reframing Your Weakness — Natalie Gurnsey
In this message, Natalie explores the paradoxical truth that God's power works best through our weaknesses rather than our strengths. Drawing from Paul's teaching about his "thorn in the flesh," the message challenges the world's emphasis on hiding weaknesses and showcasing strengths. Instead, it invites believers to bring their weaknesses, struggles, and thorns to the feet of Jesus, where God's grace becomes sufficient and His strength is made perfect

Let the Dust Settle Pt.3: Don't Drive in the Dust — P. Josiah
In part three of this series, Pastor Josiah encourages believers to pause in God's presence when emotions rise, allowing the Holy Spirit to guide decisions and responses rather than acting impulsively from anger, fear, or other strong feelings; allowing our flesh (the "dust") to settle rather than being driven by emotions and feelings. By practicing "Selah" - pausing in God's presence - believers can gain spiritual clarity and produce the fruit of the Spirit rather than the destructive outcomes of flesh-driven living.

Let the Dust Settle Pt. 2: There's No Room Here — P. Josiah
In part two of this series, Pastor Josiah challenges us as believers to move beyond merely trying to resist the flesh and instead intentionally train to walk in the Spirit. He emphasizes making "no provision for the flesh" while actively filling ourselves with God's presence. When we are empty and weary, life's pressures crush us, but when filled with the Spirit through God's Word, prayer, worship, and community, we can withstand these same pressures and run the race God has set before us.

Let The Dust Settle Pt. 1: Seed, Soul & Spirit — Natalie Gurnsey
In part one of this series, Natalie explains how believers can overcome their fleshly nature and walk in the Spirit. She emphasizes that our flesh, made from the dust of the earth, constantly battles against God's Spirit within us. Rather than relying on willpower or self-effort, transformation comes through planting the Word of God in our hearts like a seed, nurturing it through relationship with Jesus, and allowing time for the fruit of the Spirit to grow.

Easter Sunday: This Changed Everything — P. Josiah
In this Easter Message, Pastor Josiah explains the resurrection wasn't a frantic escape but a completed work—Jesus didn't need the burial cloth anymore because death was finished, not final. This small detail reveals that the same God who carefully folded a cloth in the midst of conquering death also cares intimately about the smallest details of our lives. Jesus' resurrection changes everything.

Palm Sunday: Triumphant Entry — P. Josiah
For Palm Sunday, Pastor Josiah explores the profound significance of Jesus' triumphant entry into Jerusalem on a donkey colt. Rather than simply commemorating a historical event, the message reveals how Jesus intentionally chose the donkey to signal that He came to bring peace between God and humanity—not through military conquest, but through His sacrificial death on the cross.

Loonies, Toonies & Misconstrunies Pt. 4: The Source of the Seed — P. Josiah
In part four of this series, Pastor Josiah addresses the misconception that financial stewardship is either entirely our responsibility or entirely God's. He establishes that believers are called to be "co-laborers" with God in their finances—neither carrying the full weight alone nor being passive observers. When we partner with God in our finances, we gain access to His supernatural provision, favor, and miracle-working power.

Loonies, Toonies & Misconstrunies Pt 3: Response, Not Result: Why We Give — P. Josiah
In part three of this series, Pastor Josiah addresses common misconceptions about tithing and presents a biblical understanding of giving.He emphasizes that tithing is not a legalistic requirement for God's love or a transactional means to obtain blessings, but rather a worship response to God's overwhelming goodness and mercy. Giving should flow from a cheerful heart in response to God's grace, not from guilt, manipulation, or obligation.

Loonies, Toonies & Misconstrunies Pt. 2: The "My Money" Trap — P. Josiah
In part two of the series, Pastor Josiah challenges the common misconception that our money belongs to us, revealing instead that everything we have is God's and we are merely stewards of His resources. He confronts the cultural lie of "self-made" success, and reminds us that the ultimate goal is to hear "Well done, good and faithful servant" when we stand before God, having faithfully stewarded everything He placed in our hands.

Loonies, Toonies & Misconstrunies Pt. 1: Money: Root, Fruit or Tool? — P. Josiah
In part one of this series, Pastor Josiah addresses common misconceptions about money from a biblical perspective. He challenges two prevalent "ditches" people fall into: believing money is the root of all evil (leading to poverty mentality) and viewing money as the ultimate source of happiness and security. The core message emphasizes that money is neither inherently evil nor our source of provision—rather, it is a tool God provides for His purposes.
