Send us a textThis week’s message explores Jesus’ powerful teaching from Luke 12:13–34, where we’re reminded to guard our hearts against greed and worry. Instead of living for wealth or possessions, Jesus calls us to be rich toward God—pursuing His Kingdom first and trusting Him fully. From the parable of the rich fool to the invitation to seek first the Kingdom, this sermon challenges us to live with eternal priorities, open-handed generosity, and confident faith in God’s provision. Are you seeking the Kingdom first?

Send us a textIn Luke 12:1–12, Jesus warns His followers to avoid the “leaven” of the Pharisees—hypocrisy that spreads and corrupts. This message unpacks four warnings and two encouragements from Jesus. Don’t follow false teachers, fear people, deny Christ, or resist the Holy Spirit. Instead, fear God rightly and shine His light boldly. This passage calls us to trade lifeless religion for a real relationship with Jesus. It's a challenge to examine our hearts, trust God's love, and walk in the truth and power of the Holy Spirit.

Send us a textOne thing that got Jesus upset during His earthly ministry was the Scribes and Pharisees hindering people from seeing the Kingdom of God. In this message Pastor Aaron gives us a list of seven things to avoid based on what Jesus said about the actions of the Scribes and Pharisees in Luke 11:37-54.Avoid Outward-Only Righteousness (vs. 37-41)Avoid Check-List Religion (vs. 42)Avoid Prideful Entitlement (v. 43)Avoid Unintended Spiritual Contamination (v. 44)Avoid Rule-Based Religion (vs. 44-45)Avoid Religious Hypocrisy (vs. 47-51)Avoid Hindering People from Coming to Jesus (v. 52)To sum it up, the best way to encounter God is through His grace, NOT through rules and traditions.
