What happens when the reservoir gets low?
In John 7:37–39, Jesus promises that anyone who thirsts can come to Him and drink—and that rivers of living water will flow from within them. In this message, Pastor Jerry West examines the difference between living from a present relationship with God and attempting to survive on spiritual experiences stored from the past.
Drawing from Ezekiel 47:9, Psalm 1:1–3, Jeremiah 17:7–8, and John 6:63, this sermon shows that life, fruitfulness, strength, and renewal are found by remaining connected to the life-giving flow of God’s Spirit.
Yesterday’s encounter cannot replace today’s relationship. When joy, peace, strength, or passion begin to run low, the answer is not simply finding a larger reservoir—it is returning to the river. Discover how staying connected to the Holy Spirit enables us to remain fruitful even through seasons of pressure, heat, and drought.

Table-ology - Week 5: The Lord's Table
Table-ology, Week 5: The Lord's Table
Between the road to Jerusalem and the tomb, there's an upper room — and in it, a table. In this message, Pastor Jerry traces the Last Supper back to its roots in the Passover meal, unpacking why Jesus told His disciples He had deeply desired to eat this meal with them before He suffered. What looked like just another familiar Passover to the twelve was, in Jesus' hands, transformed into something new: His body as the bread, His blood as the covenant cup.
This week's study also confronts a hard truth — that confessing Jesus as Lord means receiving all of Him, not just the parts that are comfortable. And it offers a tender invitation: the bitter herbs of the Passover table remind us that God never asks us to hide our pain, but to bring it to the table and lay it beside the Lamb.
Part of the Table-ology series — a study of the tables of Scripture — this episode leads directly into a communion reflection on the bread and the cup.

Table-ology Week 4: The King's Table 07/05/26
In this fourth message of the Table-ology series, Pastor Jerry West explores the story of Mephibosheth in 2 Samuel 9 and the life-changing invitation to the king’s table.
Mephibosheth was connected to a fallen kingdom, defined by others according to his disability, and living far from the palace. Yet King David sought him out—not to punish him, but to show him covenant kindness. His invitation was not based on Mephibosheth’s merit, strength, or usefulness, but on a promise made long before he arrived.
In the same way, God’s grace comes looking for us. Our failures, wounds, and limitations do not cancel His call. The table is not prepared because we are worthy, but because the King is kind. His kindness calls us, carries us, and covers us.
