  Leadership Lessons from Paul | Acts 20 14.09.2026 39мин

  What does faithful Christian leadership look like, and how do we live a life worth following? In Acts 20, the Apostle Paul gathers the leaders of the church in Ephesus and gives them a final charge before continuing toward Jerusalem. In this message, Pastor Ben Stuart walks through Paul’s example of integrity, courage, purpose, and dependence on the grace of God. Paul reminds us that truly following Jesus means more than just knowing the right things. It means demonstrating the message with our lives, declaring the truth, protecting the people God has entrusted to us, and giving ourselves to a mission bigger than ourselves. In a world that often tells us to prioritize comfort and self-preservation, Paul offers another way: know what is worth living for, trust God even when you don’t know what comes next, and run the course He has given you.

  This Will Cost You | Luke 9 07.09.2026 42мин

  What does it actually cost to follow Jesus, and what does He ask of those who claim to? How do we move past treating Him as just a fascinating spiritual figure and instead build a life fully surrendered to Him? And what does it look like to deny yourself, take up your cross, and follow Him every single day? In this message, Jacob Harkey teaches from Luke 9, where Jesus turns to His disciples in the middle of His most popular moment and asks the question that still confronts us today: “Who do you say that I am?” Peter’s answer changes everything because what you believe about Jesus determines how you respond to Him. Whether you’re wrestling with who Jesus really is or what it means to actually follow Him rather than just admire Him from a distance, Luke 9 offers a clear and costly vision: deny yourself, take up your cross daily, and follow Him.

  What Is Man? | Genesis 1 17.08.2026 45мин

We were created to be near God, become like Him, and use what He has entrusted to us for the flourishing of others. Key Verses // Genesis 1:1-2:3

  Evidence of Revival | 1 Thessalonians 1 03.08.2026 30мин

  In this talk, Landon Lacy walks us through 1 Thessalonians 1 and asks a simple but searching question: how do you actually know when the gospel has taken root in a heart or a church? Not by feelings alone, not by hymns or exegesis alone, but by fruit — a faith that changes your behavior, a love that costs you something, and a hope stable enough to hold joy in the middle of hardship. Along the way, we see what it looks like when a whole community’s faith goes to work, and how a church’s reputation for love can open a city’s ears to the Gospel long before a single word is preached. Key Verses // 1 Thessalonians 1:1-10

  Follow the Money | Acts 19 27.07.2026 42мин

  In Acts 19, Paul’s message about Jesus starts costing people cash, and the city of Ephesus erupts. A silversmith named Demetrius sees his business threatened and does what any of us can be tempted to do: he lets fear, lust, and pride drive his next move. In this talk, Pastor Ben Stuart walks us through the riot in Ephesus and asks the question underneath the chaos: what feelings are actually determining the flow of your finances? For the Ephesians who put their faith in Jesus, everything changed. They stopped trying to manipulate the gods for their own gain and started giving generously to people who could never pay them back. Their faith didn't just shift what they believed. It shifted where their money went. Key Verses // Acts 19

  Remove the Rivals | Acts 19 20.07.2026 39мин

  What is the greatest threat to our spiritual vibrancy? In this message, Pastor Ben Stuart teaches through Acts 19 and reminds us that following Jesus is more than knowing the right things or doing the right things. It is about loving Him with our whole hearts. When unconfessed sin and lesser loves begin to accumulate, they slowly choke out our intimacy with God and diminish the fullness of life He desires for us. When we see Jesus for who He truly is, the things we once feared losing begin to grow strangely dim. Join us as we study Acts 19 and discover what it looks like to return to our first love, remove the rivals, and follow Jesus with an undivided heart. Key Verses // Acts 19

  The Portrait of a Godly Marriage | Acts 18 13.07.2026 39мин

  What if the greatest impact of your life is actually built out of the smallest, everyday decisions? In this talk, Pastor Ben Stuart walks us through Acts 18, where we meet Priscilla and Aquila, a married couple whose quiet, everyday yeses end up shaping the future of the Church. We learn what a godly marriage really looks like: not just a picture of Christ and the church, but a pursuit of Christ and the church together. Whether you’re single, dating, engaged, or married, we see that there's a greater purpose for your life too. Key Verses // Acts 18

  Searching for Truth in a Skeptical World | Acts 17 07.07.2026 43мин

  What do you say to someone who’s smart, skeptical, and thinks Christianity is beneath them intellectually? In this talk, Pastor Ben Stuart walks us through Acts 17, where Paul stands before the philosophers of Athens and makes his case for God in the middle of a city full of idols. Whether you’re intellectually curious, spiritually skeptical, or just tired of groping in the dark for answers, this message is for you. Key Verses // Acts 17
