Words have the power to shape our lives.By Andrew Hopper

Can you look back on a moment in your life that you now know changed everything? Maybe it was meeting your spouse, choosing a college, or changing jobs. The events of Acts 2 are such a moment. But this moment has implications greater than we could imagine - it was a moment had echoes in the past, in the Apostles’ present, and in our time as well.…

Though Paul makes a clear and compelling case for Jesus, his listeners do not thereafter repent and believe. Instead, they plot to kill him. The roots of our rebellion run deeper than we realize. We cannot reason people into the kingdom. The...By Nick Weber

Financial blessing follows financial generosity.By Andrew Hopper

Exodus 34:10-28 - Blake McCollough

Baptism is a symbol of our death, burial and resurrection with Christ – our union with Christ. It is an expression of our faith in Jesus and His work – not ours. Baptism does not save – only Jesus can and does!By Joey Wang

Pastor Jason emphasizes the necessity of faith as our shield, which protects us from doubts and fears, and reassures us of our salvation. The helmet of salvation represents our hope in Christ, guarding our minds against condemnation and providing assurance of eternal life. Finally, he encourages us to wield the sword of the Spirit, which is God's w…

God’s plan is for His people to work hard with joy.By Andrew Hopper

By Coast Hills Church

In 2024 we’ve been reading through the big picture story of the Bible. We’ve now arrived at Jesus’s resurrection in Luke 24 and now we are getting to the center point of the story. Or maybe the better way to say it is: the resurrection is like a key that unlocks the entire story of the Scripture. It effects every part of the story. The resurrection…

As we see who our God is, it evokes a response.By Bob Coffey

Exodus 34:6-7 - Lawson Harlow

Sunday, September 15, 2024

The sermon highlighted three key pieces of armor: the belt of truth, which represents living authentically; the breastplate of righteousness, relying on Christ's righteousness; and the shoes of the gospel, which provide the foundation for peace with God and others. Ultimately, we are urged to live in truth, righteousness, and the peace of the gospe…

Following God’s design for sex leads to flourishing. Rejecting His plans leads to destruction.By Andrew Hopper

In his account of Jesus’s crucifixion, Luke includes a variety of other characters, from government officials to religious leaders to Jesus’s disciples to a couple of criminals who were crucified with Jesus. Some of these characters are depicted as weak, some as cowardly, some as wicked, some as self-righteous, and some as sorrowful. But, one chara…

Many of the instructions to the church on building the family of God are the same prescription for building our families.

In this message Pastor Dean-o Lies shared with us the importance of living for God as a response to His mercy. We were challenged to look at our bodies as living sacrifices, and to examine what it means to give our whole heart and life to Christ in every aspect of our being.By Coast Hills Church

God's design is called wisdom, and wisdom is extremely valuable.By Andrew Hopper

In our day, it is assumed (falsely) that if you are putting your faith in Jesus it must also mean you are in some ways forfeiting (or “crucifying”, if you prefer) your intellect. You are leaping blind in the dark. You are taking steps, not towards...By Nick Weber

Have you ever felt a disconnect with another person? You know them, you’ve been around them, but for some reason things just don’t click. For many of us our relationship with Jesus can feel the same way. We know who Jesus is, we read about Him in the Bible, and we go to church, but at times the relationship feels distant or disconnected. Over the p…

A sermon from our Uprise Youth Ministries Director, Dontae Brown.

There are four essential elements of the kingdom.By Andrew Hopper

In our day, it is assumed (falsely) that if you are putting your faith in Jesus it must also mean you are in some ways forfeiting (or “crucifying”, if you prefer) your intellect. You are leaping blind in the dark. You are taking steps, not towards...By Nick Weber

Have you ever had a conversation and felt like the other person kept missing the point? Conversations with someone who is continually focusing on the wrong thing can be hard, and it can be incredibly frustrating to repeat over and over: “No, you’re missing the point.” In John 6, Jesus miraculously feeds a massive crowd with only five loaves of brea…

As Christians today we live in a privileged position in God's unfolding redemptive story -- a position which the prophets (of the Old Testament) and even angels would gladly trade with us!By Joey Wang
