Jesus Came Once… But He’s Coming Again | The Theology of Christmas, Part 3 | Pastor Dave Marsh

The Christmas story doesn’t end at the manger. In Luke 2, an old man named Simeon finally sees the promise he’s been waiting for his entire life when Mary and Joseph bring the baby Jesus into the temple. God had told Simeon he would not die until he saw the Messiah — and on that ordinary day, the promise walked into the room. This message reminds us that God always keeps His word, and that Christmas is about more than celebrating Jesus’ first coming. We are living between two promises: Christ has come once, and He is coming again. As we explore the theology of Christmas and the hope of Jesus’ return, we’re challenged to live with faith, urgency, and expectation as we wait for the fulfillment of God’s second promise.

Why Jesus Had to Become Human | The Theology of Christmas, Part 2 | Pastor Dave Marsh

In this Christmas message from Matthew 1:18–25, we take a deeper look at the doctrine of the Incarnation—God with us.

Discover how this truth not only secures our forgiveness, but also transforms our identity and daily walk as followers of Christ.

Christmas Was Not an Accident | The Theology of Christmas, Part 1 | Pastor Dave Marsh

In this message, we take a fresh look at the birth of Jesus—not as a fairy tale, but as a true, world-shaping moment filled with real people, real places, and the unmistakable Sovereignty of God. Through Luke’s Gospel and the prophecies of Micah, we see how God orchestrated every detail to fulfill His promises and reveal His heart. As we unpack the doctrines woven into the Christmas account, we’re reminded that God is still sovereign, still working, and still worthy of our trust in every season of life.

Remember Your Creator in the Days of Your Youth | Under the Son, Part 8 | Pastor Brandon Hutzell

In this message from Ecclesiastes 12, we’re reminded not to wait to get serious about God—remember your Creator now.

We look at young faith in Scripture, the difference between experience and true wisdom, and practical ways to grow daily intimacy with God. As Ecclesiastes closes, the call is clear: fear God, obey His commands, and live with eternity in view—because now matters more than someday.

Trusting God in Seasons of Pain | Under the Son, Part 7 | Pastor Dave Marsh

In Ecclesiastes 7, Solomon makes a series of surprising statements: funerals are better than parties, sorrow is better than laughter, and criticism is better than praise. At first glance, none of it seems to make sense—until we press in and discover the deep truth behind his words.In this message, we explore why God often uses sorrow, adversity, and seasons of suffering to refine us in ways comfort never can. We look at how grief slows us down, clarifies our priorities, and opens space for God to shape our hearts. We also confront the mystery of suffering—why life doesn’t always add up and why faith must make room for both joy and hardship.If you're walking through a difficult season, this message will encourage you to trust God not only as Deliverer, but as Sustainer. If you're in a season of strength, it will challenge you to look with compassion on those who are hurting.“For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed…” — Romans 8:18

Letting Go, Moving Forward, and Never Giving Up | From This Day Forward, Part 5 | Pastor Dave Marsh
