What if the most powerful thing about your life isn’t what you have, but who you influence? In this kickoff message, Pastor Ben Young shows us how influence starts with compassion. Looking at the way Jesus saw people—really saw them—this message challenges us to open our eyes, our hearts, and our lives. Your influence is bigger than you think.

What do we expect out of life? What should we expect from God? Maybe a better question is what does God expect from us? In Matthew 28, Jesus lays out God’s expectations of us as believers – places to go and things He has called us to. What would your life look like and how could the world be changed if we all committed to follow His calling?

Expectations minus reality equals disappointment. And when things go awry and we're dealing with chaos at work, at home, with others and within ourselves, we need a fresh experience in our soul of God's grace and God's truth. We need alignment with God’s wisdom and purpose so He can enable us to power through and deal with the chaos but how do we access that?

We’re experts at making New Year’s resolutions but not so good at keeping them. They’re based on our expectations of what will happen in the coming year and goals we hope to achieve.

To someone in your life, you're the closest thing to God that they've got. So what is our responsibility as followers of Christ to the lost among us?

We can use technology in so many marvelous ways but many times our technology leaves us feeling disconnected. Anxiety, loneliness, and a sense of disconnection can come from our desire to be connected in ways that don't deliver the goods. Christianity is not a solo sport.

Water is essential to us as human beings. We have to have water or we can't exist. But most of us have a “water” problem because we are suffering from spiritual dehydration. We have a thirst of the soul. Why are we dehydrated? Why do we constantly thirst? Find the answers in the only One who quenches our thirst and sets us free from things that leave us unsatisfied.

As a follower of God or someone seeking to know God, it's all about worship. As human beings, it's inescapable - we are worshiping creatures. And what we put at the center of our life is what we worship. But God designed us to worship Him alone so what is true worship? Why is it so important? How do we worship & what happens when we make worship a priority?

Christmas isn’t just emotional—it’s powerful. Pastor Ben Young explores what it means to call Jesus our Mighty God.

Seasons change—but God’s love doesn’t. In this message on spiritual growth, Pastor Ben Young returns to the tree theme in Scripture and reminds us that the key to lasting faith isn’t trying harder—it’s being rooted and grounded in love. From Psalm 92 to Ephesians 3, discover how God’s love is timeless, tough, and tenacious—and exactly what we need to thrive in every season.

Weeds don’t just need to be removed—they need to be replaced. Pastor Ben Young unpacks what it means to grow stronger through the expulsive power of a new affection.

Weeds don’t just show up in gardens—they grow in our lives, too. In this message, Pastor Ben Young identifies some of the spiritual weeds that can choke out our growth. Whether it’s lying, resentment, overspending, or comparison, these patterns don’t just happen—they take root. The good news? God gives us everything we need to pull them up.

Freedom sounds great—until too many choices leave us anxious, distracted, and empty. In this eye-opening message from Mount Sinai, Pastor Ben Young explores the Ten Commandments not as rigid rules, but as principles of freedom. When God says, “You shall have no other gods before Me,” He’s not limiting us—He’s inviting us to peace, purpose, and clarity.

What if Jesus' most famous sermon wasn’t just inspirational—but foundational? In this powerful message from the book of Matthew at the Mountain of Beatitudes, Pastor Ben Young helps us see how Jesus begins His public teaching—with a blessing for the poor in spirit.

What do you do when life doesn’t turn out the way you thought it would? Pastor Ben Young takes us to Mount Gilboa in the Bible—what he calls "the mountain of exception." When unmet expectations lead us to take shortcuts or go off-road spiritually, the consequences can be painful. But there’s another way: deep exploration. If you're wrestling with disappointment, doubt, or delayed dreams, this message will help you find your footing again—not by escaping, but by going deeper with God.

Sometimes the top of the mountain doesn’t feel like a win—it feels like a letdown. Pastor Ben Young walks us through the final moments of Moses’ life on Mount Nebo, a place of both vision and loss. If you’ve ever felt stuck in regret, failure, or the weight of “almost,” this message reminds you: God’s not finished. He’s calling you out of the excuse business and into the overcoming business.

On the Mount of Transfiguration, Jesus pulled back the curtain—and gave Peter, James, and John a glimpse of His glory.
