  • The Divided Heart

    Contributed by Austin W. Duncan on Apr 11, 2026

     | 323 views

    James 4 shows that our conflicts often come from the war within our own hearts, not just the problems around us. But God gives more grace, and the way home is humble repentance and surrender to Christ.

    Conflict is Everywhere I heard a story once about a church in New York City that had a tradition during the service where people would turn to one another and say, “Peace be with you.” That’s a beautiful idea, right? Except there was a problem. The people in that church were holding so many ...read more

  • Flip The Scoreboard

    James confronts the way we measure our worth by success, status, and comparison, and replaces it with God’s evaluation. This sermon calls believers to ground their identity in God’s kingdom, endure trials rightly, and trust the unchanging goodness of God.

    Flip the Scoreboard A few years ago, right out of college, I had a job interview at an ad agency. And I walked in thinking, “Okay. This is it. This is my adult moment. I’m about to become a professional person who says things like, ‘Let’s circle back.’” So I’m in the lobby, and it already feels ...read more

  • Those Who Didn't Miss Him

    Simeon and Anna recognized Jesus because they had built lives of steady worship, waiting, and faithfulness. This sermon is about how people who keep showing up before the Lord are often the ones most ready to see Him clearly.

    Those Who Didn’t Miss Him A few years ago, a Chick-fil-A opened up in Murfreesboro and they ran that “First 100” promotion. The first 100 adults through the doors at 6 a.m. would get free Chick-fil-A for a year, basically a free meal every weeaak. So people did what people do when something is on ...read more

  • Fear Isn't Final

     | 283 views

    The women come to Jesus’ tomb expecting death, grief, and disappointment, but instead they’re met with the news of resurrection. This sermon shows that fear, sorrow, and even unbelief are real, but they don’t get the final word because Jesus is alive.

    Fear Isn’t Final Alright—show of hands. Who is still eating leftovers? Some of you are basically 80% stuffing at this point. And some of you are on that post-Thanksgiving emotional roller coaster: “I’m grateful… I’m exhausted… I love my family… I need a nap… I miss people… I need a nap… did I say I ...read more

  • The King Who Couldn't Save Himself

     | 173 views

    Jesus is mocked as a helpless king, but every insult thrown at Him turns out to be true in a deeper way than His enemies understood. This sermon shows how the cross reveals both the cruelty of man and the saving purpose of God.

    The King Who Couldn’t Save Himself I want you to picture something with me. You’re scrolling through social media—Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, wherever you waste time pretending you’re being productive—and you see it happening. Someone said something. Maybe it was dumb, maybe it was offensive, ...read more

  • Plastic Faith

    Artificial leaves look healthy but produce nothing. In Mark 11 Jesus exposes leaf-only religion: a fig tree with no fruit, a crowded temple with no prayer, faith without forgiveness, and leaders without surrender. He clears space for real life with God—fruit, prayer, forgiveness, and obedience.

    An artificial plant looks impressive. But it produces nothing. You could easily buy one at a store with thought that it will "bring life to any room." And—sure—it brings the appearance of life. The leaves stay green. They never drop. It never needs water. In fact, if I tried to water it, ...read more

  • Delivered And Sent

    In Mark 5:1–20, Jesus enters Gentile territory, confronts a man possessed by a legion of demons, and drives them out. The result: a restored life and a clear choice—keep comfort or welcome Christ’s freeing authority.

    You know, it's funny how our culture deals with the idea of demons and spiritual evil. We kind of swing between two extremes, don't we? On one hand, you've got people who roll their eyes at anything supernatural. "Demons? Come on, that's just ancient superstition!" Then on ...read more

  • A Broken Man Before The Boundless Gospel

    Locked doors and crowded rooms can stop most people, but real faith finds a way. In Mark 2:1–12 four friends tear through a roof to place a paralytic before Jesus—He forgives first, then heals—showing His authority and calling us to carry others to Him.

    A little while ago I was installing a keypad lock on the door to my upstairs studio—just trying to add an extra layer of security for my equipment, cameras, computers, all that production stuff. So I set the keypad lock up, got the old handle out of the door, got the batteries in, set the code, all ...read more

  • The Voice In The Wilderness

     | 785 views

    After centuries of silence, God sends John in the wilderness to call for repentance and point to Jesus, who will baptize with the Holy Spirit (Mark 1:2–8). The wait is over; respond to the King.

    Have you ever had one of those moments where, as the words are leaving your mouth, you know you're making a terrible mistake? I had one of those back in 2014. I had just started my first "real" job at an advertising agency, and I was so excited that I went straight from work and ...read more

  • Hope Out Of Darkness

    At Cadillac Mountain, dawn hits that ridge before the rest of the country. Isaiah 9 speaks to a people in predawn darkness and promises a light that breaks in. Advent says that light has a name, Jesus, and His coming turns yokes into freedom, fear into joy, and night into morning.

    You know, I recently had the chance to take a trip to Acadia National Park in Maine. And there's this place there, Cadillac Mountain in Acadia National Park - where you can be the first person in America to see the sunrise. Imagine that. Wouldn’t that be cool to be able to say that you were one ...read more

  • Fired Up: From Anger To Action

    Contributed by Austin W. Duncan on Sep 26, 2025

     | 438 views

    Anger shows up—on the road, at home, at work. Psalm 37 teaches us not to “burn” (fret) but to trust, wait, and do good. The bible distinguishes anger that seeks justice from anger that seeks control. Trust God’s justice, practice meekness, and pursue peace in Christ.

    Road Rage Let me ask you a simple question: “When was the last time you got angry?” Maybe it was this morning when that driver cut you off in traffic. Maybe it was last night when your teenage kid rolled their eyes at you one too many times. Or maybe you’re angry right now about something deeper - ...read more

  • Never Give Up, Never Surrender Series

    Paul shows how to return and keep moving—admitting we haven’t arrived, forgetting what holds us, and pressing on toward Christ (Philippians 3:12–16). The direction is the point: let go of past wins and wounds, lean forward, and run because Christ already holds you.

    Last week, we kicked off our series "Back At It," and we talked about how Jesus meets us where we are, even when we've drifted back to our old ways. We looked at the story of Jesus cooking breakfast for His disciples on the shore, calling them back to their true purpose. Today, ...read more

  • The 153 Fish Wake-Up Call Series

    Contributed by Austin W. Duncan on Sep 26, 2025
    based on 1 rating
     | 875 views

    As seasons shift, many of us need a reset with Jesus. John 21 shows the risen Christ meeting drifting disciples, filling empty nets, and inviting them to “come and have breakfast.” This isn’t box-checking; it’s returning to the One who seeks us, provides for us, and re-commissions us.

    Can you feel it in the air? That subtle shift as summer fades into fall? Me either. But somehow every single store in all of existence seems to feel it as they’re already putting out Christmas decorations. I think by next year we’re going to see combo-fireworks stands selling candy canes and ...read more

  • Joshua: A Faith That Conquers

    Jericho shows us this: when God says “I have given…,” faith stops engineering outcomes and starts obeying. Trust His plan, keep Him central, persevere, and watch His mercy and power level walls.

    Jericho Jericho wasn't just any city. It was a fortress. Here’s what it looks like today. But Archaeological evidence shows it had a double wall system. The outer wall was about 6 feet thick and 20 feet high. Behind that was a 12-15 foot high embankment with another wall on top, reaching ...read more

  • Moses: From Contentment To Calling

    Contributed by Austin W. Duncan on Sep 26, 2025

     | 470 views

    Self-help says “look within” for happiness; Scripture says contentment comes from being humbled by God and satisfied in Christ. In Moses we’ll see that contentment often precedes calling, stays active (not complacent), and resists complaining—because Christ is enough.

    Let me ask you a simple question, “Are you content?” I saw a self-help based article on the Internet that suggested contentment can be found by catching yourself thinking “life sucks,” and stopping such thinking. It continued that contentment is found by cultivating a thankfulness for “little ...read more
