The Father Who Pursues | Luke 15:1-7

It’s easy to write people off when they wander. We assume they’re too far gone, too broken, or simply not worth the effort. But Jesus tells a different story. In this tender and powerful message from Luke 15, Stephen Bean reminds us that the heart of the Father is not one of abandonment—but of pursuit.
 
God doesn’t sit back and wait for us to find our way home. He comes after us. He lifts us onto His shoulders. He celebrates our return. Whether you feel like the one who’s wandered or the one watching others go astray, this sermon is an invitation to rediscover the relentless love of the Good Shepherd who leaves the 99 to find the one.

Wearing God's Armor into Battle

The Christian life is not a playground—it’s a battlefield. But we don’t fight alone or unarmed. In this final message from Ephesians, Pastor Steve unpacks the armor God gives His people—armor not fashioned by human hands, but forged in heaven.
 
When the spiritual war around us intensifies, we don’t need to panic. We need to stand. Clothed in truth, righteousness, peace, faith, salvation, and the Word, we’re not just protected—we’re empowered. And with prayer as our strategy, we move forward in strength not our own.
 
This sermon is for the weary, the worn out, and the ones wondering if they’ve got anything left. The answer is yes—because He is enough. Put on the armor. Step into the fight. You are not alone.

Spirit-Filled Work | Ephesians 6:5-9

What if your job isn’t just about making a living, but about living out the Gospel? Whether you’re in a boardroom, a classroom, a kitchen, or a construction site, this message from Ephesians 6 reminds us that our work is not a detour from discipleship—it’s one of the places where our faith becomes most visible.
 
In this sermon, Pastor Steve invites us to see work not as a grind, but as a gift—an opportunity to reflect Christ through humility, integrity, and joy. From the way we show up on Monday to the way we lead others, every task becomes sacred when it’s done for the Lord.

Spirit-Filled Parenting | Ephesians 6:1-4

Parenting is more than a task—it’s a sacred calling. In this heartfelt and hope-filled message, Pastor Steve invites us to consider what it means to parent with the strength and wisdom only God can provide. Whether you’re in the thick of toddler tantrums or navigating the complexities of adult children, this sermon will both comfort and challenge you. Hear the grace that meets you in your weariness, the hope that God is still at work, and the beautiful reminder that parenting isn’t about control—it’s about trust. This one is for every parent, grandparent, and future parent. Don’t miss it.

Spirit-Filled Marriage | Ephesians 5:21-33

Marriage is more than a contract—it’s a covenant meant to reflect the love of Christ. But how do imperfect people live out something so sacred? This message from Ephesians 5:21–33 gives us the answer: not by trying harder, but by surrendering deeper.
 
A spirit-filled marriage doesn’t begin with effort—it begins with surrender to God. From that spring flows mutual submission, humble leadership, and sacrificial love. This isn’t about roles that crush; it’s about grace that lifts.
 
Whether you’re married, single, or somewhere in between, this message will point you beyond stereotypes and expectations to the stunning picture of Christ and His Church.

Don't Sleepwalk Through Your Faith

Are you walking through life distracted, busy, or just spiritually dry? In this message from Ephesians 5:15–21, you’re invited into something deeper than religious activity—into a life soaked in the presence of God.
 
Paul calls us not just to live wisely, but to live filled—not with stress, noise, or substances, but with the Spirit of the Living God. As we loosen our grip and surrender control, our lives begin to overflow with joy, gratitude, and humble love.
 
This message is a wake-up call, not out of guilt, but out of grace. If you’re longing for something real, something vibrant, this is your invitation: Be filled. Be renewed. Walk in the Spirit.

Wake Up & Walk in the Light

So many people walk through life half-awake—lulled by the comforts and distractions of a dark world. But Ephesians 5 sounds an urgent alarm: Wake up. Rise up. Christ will shine on you.
 
In this powerful message, we’re reminded that living for Christ isn’t about striving to create light in ourselves—it’s about turning toward the Light that has already come. Steve McKenzie calls us to stop settling for the shadows and to live as children of light, reflecting God’s goodness, righteousness, and truth in a world desperate for hope.
 
If you’ve been feeling spiritually sleepy or stuck, this sermon is a call to return, to turn your heart fully toward Jesus—and to shine.

Come & See | Resurrection Sunday

Easter is more than a celebration—it’s an invitation. The angel’s words at the empty tomb still echo through history: “Come and see.”
 
In this Resurrection Sunday message, we journey to the garden near Golgotha where the world changed forever. This isn’t just a story of an empty tomb—it’s the historic, undeniable reality of a risen Savior. The first witnesses weren’t the powerful, but the grieving. The first proclamation wasn’t about religion, but resurrection.
 
Through eyewitness testimony, transformed lives, and unshakable hope, we’re invited to come and see—not just with our eyes, but with our hearts. Jesus is alive. And if that’s true, then everything changes.
 
So come with your questions. Come with your fear. Come and see the Savior who conquered the grave—for you.

More Than A Parade | Palm Sunday

Palm Sunday was never meant to be just a spectacle—it was a moment of sacred significance, misunderstood by many yet overflowing with meaning for those who truly saw. In this message, we step into the crowd and experience the scene through fresh eyes. Some came to worship. Others came with expectations. Many stood uncertain. And yet Jesus came for all of them.
 
This sermon invites us to look beyond the noise and truly see Jesus—not just as a teacher or a political hope, but as the Divine, Prophesied, Gentle, Peaceful, and Saving King. He rode into Jerusalem not to be crowned by man, but to lay down His life for the world. The question the crowd asked then still echoes today: Who is this man?
 
Let the answer lead you from observation to adoration, from the crowd to the cross.

New Life, New Ways | Ephesians 4:17-32

What if the Christian life isn’t about trying harder—but about living like someone who’s already been raised from the dead? In Ephesians 4:17–32, we’re reminded that following Jesus means we’ve been brought from death to life. The call is not to improve our old life, but to take it off—like filthy grave clothes that no longer fit.
 
In this message, Stephen Bean walks us through a transformative call to put off falsehood, selfishness, and bitterness—and to put on truth, generosity, and grace. With powerful imagery and heart-level honesty, we’re invited to stop pretending, to be known, and to live as people made new. This isn’t behavior modification. It’s resurrection living.
