In a world full of noise and distractions, staying grounded in your faith can feel overwhelming. Rooted or Restless explores five powerful truths from Colossians that show how life in Christ offers stability, purpose, and transformation from the inside out.
Life’s transitions can be uncertain and challenging, but Abraham’s journey in Genesis 12 shows us how to navigate change with faith. Called to leave everything familiar, Abraham stepped into the unknown, trusting God’s promises without having all the details. His story teaches us that obedience comes before understanding, worship sustains us in uncertainty, and God’s plans are always bigger than our present circumstances. Whether facing a new job, a big move, or an unexpected life change, we can learn from Abraham’s faith and trust that God is leading us every step of the way.
What does it truly mean for a community to be made in the image of God? Beyond individual reflections, Jesus' teachings challenge us to embrace the greatest commandment: to love God and others. Explore how our relationships mirror God's design and why thriving, grace-filled communities are essential for reflecting His image. Dive into this insightful exploration and see how Jesus' profound simplification of the Law calls us to live in harmony with one another.
What does it really mean to live by faith in the face of fear? In this week's message, "Faith Over Fright," Rev. Dylan Kelly walks us through the unforgettable moment when Jesus met His disciples in the middle of the storm by walking on water. Through a close reading of Matthew 14:22-33 alongside Mark and John's Gospel accounts, we explore how faith grows in the tension, how Jesus reveals His divinity in the chaos, and how Peter's step out of the boat shows us that faith is not devoid of fear. Even when we sink, God's hand is near. And ultimately, it's the presence of Jesus that we worship.
In the opening message of our Fear Not series, Rev. Dylan Kelly explores the very first appearance of fear and shame in Scripture. Genesis 3 doesn’t just tell a story about sin—it tells the deeper story of how deception distorts truth, shame reshapes our vision, and fear convinces us to hide. The serpent’s half-truths sow seeds of mistrust and reframe God’s boundaries as burdens. And when Adam and Eve take the bait, their eyes are opened—not to freedom, but to shame. Instead of confession, they cover themselves. Instead of running to God, they hide. But God does not respond with wrath—He responds with a question: “Where are you?” His grace moves toward them, covering their shame and restoring the relationship. This message reminds us that God’s grace still calls us out of hiding today.
In this powerful message, we explore the second temptation of Jesus in the wilderness from Matthew 4:5–7. The enemy urges Jesus to throw Himself down from the pinnacle of the temple—twisting Scripture to justify the act. But Jesus responds with trust, not theatrics. This sermon challenges us to examine our own tendency to test God rather than trust Him. We unpack the danger of spiritual pride, the distortion of truth, and how authentic faith chooses obedience over spectacle. Are you demanding God’s proof—or living by His presence?
What if the wilderness you’re facing isn’t a sign that God has left you, but evidence that He’s forming you? From Eden to Exodus to Jesus, God’s people have always encountered Him in desolate places — and those same spaces can become sacred ground in your life too.
