The waiting is over. Jesus didn’t come to tease us with hope, but to fulfill it. The kingdom of God is near, which means delay is no longer faithfulness. Now is the time to turn, trust, and follow the King. 

Speaker: Robert ConnTemptation is rarely about choosing something evil and is more often about choosing what feels easier than trusting God. Looking at Jesus in the wilderness, we see that temptation often follows obedience or spiritual ...

Speaker: Robert ConnAt Jesus’ baptism in Mark 1, heaven opens, the Spirit descends, and the Father speaks love and pleasure over His Son before Jesus does anything publicly. This message explores baptism, the Trinity, and a life-changing...

Speaker: Rob SteeleIn Mark 1:1–8, we see how God prepares the way for Jesus by calling people to repentance, humility, and readiness to receive the true King. Mark opens with a bold declaration of who Jesus is, the Christ, the Son of God...

Speaker: Robert ConnIn the Gospel of Mark, we’re invited to take a fresh look at a Jesus we think we already know. Not just a good teacher, wise man, spiritual guide, or moral example, but the Son of God who came to serve, suffer, and sa...

Speaker: Robert ConnWhat if the greatest gift God gives you doesn’t match your expectations, but changes your life? This Christmas Eve-Eve, we are reminded that when the world expected something powerful and flashy, God sent a baby. Jesu...

Speaker: Robert ConnWhat if one missing piece could make all of Christmas go dark? Many things feel essential to Christmas, like snow, gifts, music, and traditions, but none of them actually hold the story together. There is only one bul...

Speaker: Robert ConnYou can have all the lights, decorations, and plans, but without connection to Jesus, there’s no power.

Speaker: Robert ConnEven when life feels twisted and messy, God is working through every strand. His plan isn’t to cut you loose; it’s to weave your story into His.

Speaker: Robert ConnClosing out Fresh Picked by looking at “The Harvest, a reminder that the Fruit of the Spirit isn’t something we manufacture, but something that grows in us when we stay connected to Jesus. Each fruit has a “climate” w...

Speaker: Rob SteeleSelf-control isn’t about tightening our grip but surrendering to the power of Christ. Grace doesn’t just save, it trains us to say no to sin and yes to godliness. In a world ruled by impulse, the Spirit grows something...

Speaker: Robert ConnA watermelon is tough on the outside but soft and sweet inside, that’s gentleness: strength under control. It’s staying calm when you could explode and tender when life presses hard. In Christ, softness isn’t weakness...

Speaker: Robert ConnIn a world that constantly changes, God never does. His mercies are new every morning, and His faithfulness never fails. Faithfulness isn’t flashy; it’s showing up when it’s hard and staying when it’s inconvenient. Li...

Speaker: Robert ConnGoodness comes from connection, not comparison. God’s goodness isn’t just what He does… it’s who He is. And when His Spirit lives in us, His goodness is reflected through us. Just like fruit that’s fresh off the tree,...

Speaker: Robert ConnKindness, like a cherry, is small but powerful, best when shared, rare in a harsh world, and the “cherry on top” in our lives. God’s kindness leads us to repentance, and now we’re called to show that same kindness to ...

Speaker: Robert ConnPatience isn’t passive waiting; it’s faithful endurance. Like a banana needs time to ripen, hope is formed through suffering, endurance, and character (Rom. 5:3–5). Don’t skip the process, the Spirit is growing somethi...

Speaker: Rob SteeleTrue peace isn’t the absence of problems; it’s the presence of Christ. The world offers fragile, temporary calm, but Jesus gives a supernatural peace through the Holy Spirit that anchors us even in chaos. As we abide i...

Speaker: Robert ConnJoy isn’t fleeting happiness; it’s the presence of God that sustains us through every season. Like a pineapple, it takes time to grow, is sweet despite hardship, and carries a crown of hope. Fixing our eyes on Jesus p...

Speaker: Robert ConnGalatians 5 shows us the battle between flesh and Spirit isn’t won by willpower but by abiding in Jesus. The first fruit, love, is God’s agape love, the foundation for all others, covering sins and proving we belong t...

Speaker: Rob SteeleThe Bible contrasts the works of the flesh with the fruit of the Spirit in Galatians 5. While the flesh pulls us toward sin, things like envy, anger, impurity, and selfishness, the Spirit produces love, joy, peace, and...

The church is called to live with integrity, to be people of prayer in both suffering and joy, to practice honest confession and mutual accountability, and to pursue those who wander lovingly. James ends his letter with a vision for a church th...

Anyone can wait and worry. But James 5:7-11 reminds us that true patience is waiting without worry. Like a farmer trusting the rains, we are called to stand firm, trust God’s timing, and live with peace even when life feels uncertain. We uncove...

Who’s really in control, you or God? James 4:13–5:6 warns against living like we’re the pilot when we’re just passengers. Pride shows up in presumptuous planning and hoarded wealth, but both are empty and dangerous. Real wisdom means trusting G...

James 4:11-12 confronts the pride that fuels our criticism and judgment of others. James isn’t telling us to ignore sin, he’s warning us not to play God. This sermon explores why judgment feels good, why it’s so dangerous, and how to call out s...
