In the final chapter of Ruth, a quiet story becomes something far bigger than anyone expected. As redemption comes at a cost and long-held emptiness gives way to hope, we’re invited to see how God works through ordinary faithfulness to shape an extraordinary future.

In Ruth 3, Ruth steps forward in faith and vulnerability, and we see a love that will not rest until redemption is complete. Pastor Jason reminds us that her story points us to Jesus—the true Redeemer—who keeps His promises and meets us in seasons of waiting, longing, and uncertainty. If you’re wondering whether God will come through, this message offers hope for the night you’re in.

In this Advent message from Ruth 2, Pastor Jason shows how God’s goodness quietly breaks through even in seasons of loss and uncertainty. Through Ruth’s courageous faith and Boaz’s generous, protective care, we’re reminded that God often works through ordinary moments and unseen providence. Ultimately, this chapter points us to Jesus—the greater Redeemer—who notices the overlooked, welcomes outsiders, and invites the weary to His table. If you’re waiting for hope, this message is a reminder: God is already at work.

This week, we open our Advent journey in Ruth 1, where hope shines through heartbreak and God’s quiet faithfulness meets us in the ordinary. As Naomi and Ruth step into an uncertain future, we’re reminded that our Redeemer sees us, knows us, and is already at work in the places that feel empty. Join us as we reflect on the faithful hope of the God who draws near and steadies our steps in every season.

Discipleship isn't a choice - discipleship is a call on each believer. Pastor Jason walked us through Psalm 145:4 and the call we have as believers to not just teach truths to the the next generation, but rather to praise God and tell of His wondrous works in our lives.

We all drift. Sometimes it’s subtle, sometimes it’s obvious—but every one of us knows what it’s like to wander from God. In the closing verses of James, Pastor Jason reminds us that real faith doesn’t just hear truth—it restores wanderers. This message invites us to become a community where grace runs deep, truth restores, and wanderers find their way home again.

What do we do when we’re hurting, weary, or waiting for God to move? In the closing verses of James, we’re reminded that prayer isn’t just a last resort—it’s the posture of a heart that trusts God in every circumstance.

We live in a world that hates to wait. But in James 5:7–12, we’re reminded that patience isn’t passive—it’s purposeful. God is doing something in the waiting that He couldn’t do any other way. This week, Pastor Jason reminds us that we’re invited to trust that even when life feels slow or uncertain, the Lord is near and the wait is never wasted.

It’s easy to plan our lives as if we’re in control—setting goals, chasing success, and assuming tomorrow is guaranteed. But James reminds us that life is fleeting and that every moment is a gift from God. This week's sermon challenges us to hold our plans with humility and our possessions with open hands, recognizing that true security is found not in wealth or achievement, but in trusting the Lord’s will and living for what lasts.

In this message from James 4, we see that relational tension is often a symptom of a deeper spiritual problem—our friendship with the world rather than our faithfulness to God. But James doesn’t leave us there. He offers a path to healing through humility, repentance, and drawing near to the One who gives greater grace. Discover how true peace begins when we stop managing our sin and start letting God restore our hearts.

In a world obsessed with power, success, and influence, James reminds us that true wisdom looks different. It’s not loud, flashy, or self-serving—it’s pure, peaceable, gentle, and full of mercy. In this message, we explore the contrast between the wisdom of the world and the wisdom from above, and how Jesus Himself embodies the kind of wisdom that brings peace where there’s conflict and life where there’s chaos. Discover how faith that works also becomes wisdom that works. 

In a world where everyone’s talking but few are listening, what would it look like to model a better conversation? Drawing from James 1:19 and 3, Pastor Jason reminds us that listening honors others, learning grows humility, and love transforms our tone. Discover how our words can reflect Jesus and bring healing in a divided world.

Words hold incredible power—power to heal or to wound, to guide or to destroy. In this message from James 3:1–12, we’re reminded that our tongues, though small, can set the course of our lives and deeply impact the people around us. Left unchecked, our words can be fueled by pride, anger, or even destruction—but surrendered to Christ, they become instruments of grace, life, and truth.

Join us as we explore how real faith doesn’t just act, it speaks, and discover how the Spirit of God can transform our hearts so that our words overflow with blessing instead of cursing, life instead of death. 

In a world marked by division, violence, and uncertainty, James calls us to a living faith that doesn’t just speak but acts. In this message, we’re reminded that genuine faith is more than belief—it’s faith that moves, serves, forgives, and loves in tangible ways. Drawing from the examples of Abraham and Rahab, Pastor Jason shows us that God uses both the respected and the rejected when they step out in obedience. These are not days for sideline faith. These are days for living faith—a faith that acts, a faith that moves, a faith that works.

What does your faith look like in the way you treat people? In this week’s message, Pastor Jason walks us through James 2:1–13 and reminds us that true faith leaves no room for favoritism.

We’ll discover:

- Why partiality contradicts the gospel

- How God calls us to love without labels

- What it means to see people through the eyes of grace

Every person has value at the foot of the cross—and we’re invited to live like it.

What does God desire from His people? In this message, Pastor Mike Kraft explores James 1:27 and shows us that true faith is revealed in how we care for the vulnerable and live out God’s heart. Discover how we can move from belief to action, from comfort to compassion, and from isolation to community.

We'll look at:

- Why caring for the vulnerable reflects God’s heart

- How families and the church can be places of belonging and healing

- What it means to resist the world’s narrative and embrace the gospel narrative

- Practical ways we can partner with God to serve the hurting right in our own city

This is a call to live with open hands and open hearts, demonstrating God’s mercy, compassion, and love in tangible ways.
