October 11, 2026 - John 13:18-38 - "Betrayal, Denial, and the Faithfulness of Christ"
How does Jesus respond when those closest to Him fall short, stumble, or even turn away?
In week 36 of our series through the Gospel of John, North End Church welcomes guest teacher and friend of our church, Jake Honeycutt. Continuing in the Upper Room, this passage lays bare the dark reality of human weakness, from Judas’ impending betrayal to Peter’s overconfident promise and imminent denial, set against the unwavering faithfulness and glory of Christ.
This week, we unpack the stark contrast between our frailty and Christ's redeeming love through three key points:
Jesus knows the failure of His disciples (v.18-30): Christ is never caught off guard by our weakness or treason; even in the shadow of betrayal, He remains fully in control and sovereign over Scripture's fulfillment.
Jesus accomplishes salvation through His glory-bearing cross (v.31-33): The moment of ultimate betrayal sets in motion the very event that brings maximum glory to God—the cross where our salvation is secured.
Jesus calls His disciples to reflect His love (v.34-38): In the midst of predicted failure, Jesus gives a new commandment: to love one another just as He has loved us, establishing self-sacrificing love as the true trademark of His followers.

October 4, 2026 - John 13:1-17 - "Will We Serve Others?"
What does real leadership look like in the Kingdom of God?
Returning to our series through the Gospel of John, Lead Pastor Dr. Scott Hood takes us into the Upper Room on the eve of the crucifixion. As Jesus prepares for the cross, He performs a shocking act of humility: taking off His outer garments, wrapping a towel around His waist, and washing the dirt off His disciples' feet.
This week, we look at Christ's radical model of servant leadership and the challenge it presents to every follower of Jesus through four key points:
Jesus makes serving a priority (v.1-3): Fully aware of His divine authority and where He was going, Jesus chooses to use His supreme power not to be served, but to serve.
Jesus serves by washing feet (v.4-10): Unpacking the deep cultural shock of the Master taking the role of the lowest slave, illustrating both physical humility and our need for spiritual cleansing.
Jesus serves the betrayer (v.11): A powerful testament to Christ's grace, washing the feet of Judas, knowing full well the betrayal that was already in his heart.
Jesus commands His followers to serve others (v.12-17): The direct call to stop exalting ourselves and start washing the feet of those around us, finding true blessing in putting His example into practice.

September 27, 2026 - Leviticus 11 - "(Thus He Declared All Foods Clean)"
What can an ancient Old Testament law about clean and unclean animals teach us about the Gospel today?
Taking a brief break from our verse-by-verse study through the Gospel of John, North End Church welcomes guest teacher and friend of our church, John Steinke, for a special message in Leviticus 11.
While dietary restrictions and ritual purity laws in the Old Testament might initially seem obscure to modern readers, this passage points directly to the ultimate heart of God: His perfect holiness and His transformative power. Through this message, we explore how God’s holiness is put on full display in the Law, and how Christ ultimately fulfills that Law, taking what was once far off, impure, or broken and making all things clean, holy, and new through Him.
