Bigger Than My Expectations
Don’t Quit Before the Fruit Comes Serving God doesn’t mean everything will go smoothly. Scripture shows us a pattern: Communication. Opposition. Perseverance. Fruit. Glory to God. Opposition can make us discouraged, but if we quit when things get difficult, we may never see the fruit God has ahead. This weekend in Big God, Small Me, we look at how God i
God is Bigger Than My Past
God delights in making things new. A new heart. A new spirit. A new name. One day, even a new heaven and a new earth. But what about your past? Would God really redeem your biggest regrets, deepest failures, and worst mistakes? The Bible's answer may surprise you. Discover why God is bigger than your past and no one is beyond the reach of His grace! PS
He's Bigger Than My Blindness
Why do some people reject the gospel so strongly? Why do so many live their lives mocking God, ignorant of His Word, completely uninterested in spiritual truth? Jesus’ answer: They're spiritually blind. Before the Apostle Paul became one of the greatest missionaries in history, he wasn't merely resistant to Christ, Paul truly could not see Him. Salvatio
He's Bigger Than My Sin
No matter who you are – no matter where you’ve been or what you’ve done – God’s grace is bigger than your sin.

God Is Bigger Than My Religion
The Word is clear: God is big and we are small. Not resentfully. Not reluctantly. But we should joyfully find our right size next to the God who made everything.When God is big, everything else finds its proper place. The burdens and struggles – even our religion – are finally brought into perspective.This teaching series begins with "Bigger Than My Rel
Jesus Is Praying For You
We often remember His words, "Not my will, but Yours be done" (Luke 22:42)… but did you ever wonder what He prayed during those hours?
John 17 gives a glimpse into that conversation – and a discovery with the power to change the way you face every day. Jesus wasn't only praying for His disciples, He was praying for you. Let’s uncover one of the most enc
Gifts From Jesus
What's the greatest gift you've ever received?
While that likely stirs fresh memories from childhood, even the best gifts pale in comparison to what Jesus Christ has given us.
The Lord‘s gifts aren't temporary or superficial – they’re God's provision for your life – and they reveal His love, His care, and His purpose for His people.
Dr. James MacDonald
The Glorious Holy Spirit
The Holy Spirit may be a mystery for many, but is not a danger to avoid. He is the third Person of the Trinity – our Comforter and God’s provision for living the Christian life. Don’t allow fear to keep you from experiencing all God has intended. Join us in John 16 for “The Glorious Holy Spirit”.

Help With Haters
Opposition for your faith in Christ doesn't mean something is wrong. It’s evidence you belong to Him. In John 15, Jesus warned His closest followers that they would be misunderstood, opposed and even persecuted. But His warning wasn't just for them – it matters for you and me today.

The Secret to a Joyful Life - Part 2
What if one of the greatest secrets of life has been hiding in plain sight?As Jesus walked toward the cross, He didn’t speak of sorry or even fear – but joy. Could the joy you’ve always been looking for be found somewhere entirely unexpected?Join Dr. James MacDonald for part two of this powerful teaching, The Secret to a Joyful Life.

The Secret to a Joyful Life - Part 1
Jesus has a secret. In John 15, He reveals it. “These things I have spoken to you, that My joy may be in you, and that your joy may be full” (John 15:11).
If you struggle to make the Christian life work, learn what it means to abide in Christ, bear fruit, and experience the lasting joy that Jesus Himself promises. Open your Bible to John 15 and learn th
Help With A Difficult Obedience
In John 14, Jesus repeats one truth, over and over: “If you love Me, keep My commandments.” Why? Because He knows some obedience will be difficult. And because every difficult obedience is resourced and rewarded by the Lord Himself. Open your Bible and get ready to receive the help Jesus gives when following Him is hard.

Five Freedoms from a Troubled Heart
If you lie awake, unable to quiet your thoughts... If loss, fear or loneliness follows you into every room... If others are laughing, but your heart is stuck somewhere else… Jesus is speaking to YOU: “Let not your heart be troubled.” Turn in your Bible to John 14 – and bring that troubled heart to Christ for a peace that circumstances cannot take away.
The Glory of Love
Love. It heals what is broken. It carries you where you need to go. It restores what you thought was lost. “Love never fails.” 1 Corinthians 13:8
But what does love actually look like when it costs you something? When serving feels beneath you? When those closest to you will soon disappoint you? Turn to John 13 for the true glory of love.

That's Not What A Kiss Is For
Betrayal is deepest when the betrayer is closest. Judas kissed Jesus… then handed Him over.
Hidden in that moment are the principles of betrayal, what causes it, why it cuts so deeply – and how Christ responded with total purity.

Humble Yourself (Part Two)
If you knew you had one night left, what would you say?
Jesus didn’t raise His voice. He didn’t gather a crowd. He pulled close the ones He loved. No spotlight. No stage. Just a towel… and a choice. This is where it gets real. Join us for Part Two of Humble Yourself…

Humble Yourself (Part One)
Are you ready for more – more Jesus, that is? This fresh teaching series in John’s gospel opens to a scene less than 24 hours from the cross. The crowds are gone – it’s just Jesus, His disciples, His final message and their marching orders. But instead of power or spectacle, Christ chose humility… When it’s hardest to love, humble yourself

Laws of the Harvest (Part Two)
Be not deceived. God is not mocked. Whatever you plant, you harvest. If it’s not a trial, it’s a consequence. And if it’s a consequence, you planted it.
Sow little → reap little. Sow much → reap much. Whatever you plant… you will harvest. Watch the full teaching and examine what you’re planting.

Laws of the Harvest (Part One)
We want grace without consequence and growth without discipline. But Galatians 6 leaves no room for confusion. “Do not be deceived: God is not mocked, for whatever one sows, that will he also reap.”
Galatians 6:7 This message is a serious call to examine what you are sowing. Watch the full teaching, and let the Word do its work.

Come Quickly Lord Jesus
Easter reminds us that Jesus came and died to save the world.
Revelation reminds us He is coming again!
As you seek our suffering and risen Savior this weekend, allow your heart to ache for the day when everything is made right.
And find below, for further encouragement, an expanded number of teachings on the Resurrection for your time in God’s Word.

All About Heaven
You don’t think about heaven clearly enough.
Eye has not seen what God has prepared, but He has revealed it by His Spirit.
Revelation 21 pulls back the curtain.
Not clouds. Not guesses. A real home. A prepared future. Better than you think.
If you knew everything, you’d want out now.
God gives just enough to anchor your hope and change your life.

And Finally
Who else prefers when things are finished, wrapped up, settled?
But we don’t live in a finished world. Wrongs go unanswered. Evil seems unchecked. People celebrate what destroys them. And it wears on you. If you’ve been thinking, “This isn’t how it’s supposed to be,” you’re right. Revelation 20 is our future.

The Return of Jesus Christ: Hallelujah
Our human hearts long for justice. No doubt you’ve felt wronged – passed over, treated unfairly. And something is clearly wrong in this world. But Scripture is clear: Justice belongs to the world to come. Revelation 19 lifts the curtain on the moment when God sets everything straight.

An Autopsy of "My Way"
If Revelation 17 was the death of world religion, Revelation 18 is the autopsy. Regardless of whether it appears to be spiritual or moral, false religion is still self rule. Anything built on “my way” will eventually collapse. Following Jesus is the exact opposite – He must increase, I must decrease. Listen to this teaching in Revelation 18 and ask the
What God Thinks About World Religion
We live in a world drowning in opinion. But once you know the truth, you lose your tolerance for what is false.It doesn’t matter what we think. What matters is what God thinks.Revelation pulls back the curtain and gives us heaven’s perspective world religions. It is clear. It is decisive. It calls us to align with truth.
