Does your faith make a difference on Monday morning?
In this message, Lead Pastor Stephen Mizell continues through the book of Colossians to explore how following Jesus should impact every area of our lives, including our work, leadership, relationships, and everyday conversations.
It's easy to recognize the spiritual significance of Sunday worship, but God doesn't stop working in us when we clock in on Monday. Whether you're at work, caring for your family, leading others, or navigating a difficult season, God has given you opportunities to live out your faith right where you are.
In this message, discover how to:
• Work faithfully as though you're working for the Lord.
• Lead with justice, humility, and accountability.
• Make prayer a priority in every season.
• Treat others with wisdom and grace.
• Recognize the everyday opportunities God gives you to represent Jesus.
You don't have to wait for a bigger opportunity or a different season to fulfill your purpose. The question is: Where has God assigned you today, and are you being faithful in it?

Jesus at Home | Jesus is Enough | Week 5
What happens when Jesus becomes the Lord of your home? In Week 5 of the Jesus Is Enough series, Lead Pastor Stephen Mizell explores Colossians 3 and how following Jesus should transform the way we love, lead, forgive, and encourage our families.
Our homes are often where our faith is tested the most. How we respond to conflict, treat our spouse, and guide our children reveals the work Jesus is doing in us. In this message, discover why healthy marriages require mutual responsibility, why children need both loving authority and encouragement, and how we can correct without crushing the hearts of those we love.
Your family doesn't need a perfect version of you. They need a surrendered version of you, one that is still growing, learning to love, and allowing Jesus to shape every response.
In This Episode:
• Why we can be right and wrong at the same time
• Taking personal responsibility in marriage
• Recognizing and avoiding harshness in our relationships
• Leading children with loving authority, boundaries, and consistency
• Correcting children without discouraging them
• Allowing Jesus to shape the atmosphere of our homes
• Choosing growth, humility, and surrender over perfection

Winning the War Within | Jesus is Enough | Week 4
What does it actually look like to live differently because of Jesus?
In this message from the Jesus Is Enough series, Lead Pastor Stephen Mizell walks through Colossians 3 and challenges us to recognize that following Jesus isn't just about where we're going someday. Jesus wants to change how we live today.
Our thoughts, desires, emotions, relationships, and habits all matter. Paul gives us a practical picture of what it means to live from our new identity in Christ: set our minds on Christ, put to death the things that are destroying us, put on the character of Jesus, and let His peace rule in our lives.
Christian maturity isn't just about what we stop doing. It's about becoming more like Jesus.
In this message:
• Why what we focus on matters
• The difference between being changed by Christ and trying to earn God's approval
• What it means to "put to death" the things that don't belong in our new life
• Putting on mercy, kindness, humility, gentleness, patience, forgiveness, and love
• Why Christian maturity is about becoming more like Jesus
• How community and gratitude help us live differently
• Learning to live from our new identity in Christ
