A Letter to My Children
<p>Enjoy this message from Pastor Tyler Schoenberger called "A Letter to My Children" on Sunday, June 21, 2026 at Reach Church in Bear, Delaware!</p><p><br></p><p>There is a common assumption in the Christian life that the gospel is where things begin, not where they continue. Once someone has believed, the thinking goes, it is time to move on to deeper and more advanced spiritual content. But this assumption quietly shifts the focus from what Christ has done to what we must do, and it turns faith into an exhausting cycle of striving and measuring up. Paul addressed this directly when he wrote to the church in Corinth, a culture obsessed with rhetoric and wisdom. He refused to give them complexity. Instead, he resolved to know nothing among them except Jesus Christ and Him crucified, trusting not in persuasive words but in the demonstration of the Spirit and power.</p><p><br></p><p>Salvation is far larger than a single moment in time. Scripture presents it in three dimensions: justification, the moment we are made right with God; sanctification, the ongoing process of being transformed; and glorification, the final arrival at our eternal home. Like a lifeboat that pulls someone from a sinking ship and carries them all the way to shore, the gospel does not simply rescue and then step aside. It sustains the entire journey. Nothing can remove us from that boat. The God who saves also sanctifies, and the God who sanctifies will glorify. The chain is unbroken.</p><p><br></p><p>Over time, the simple plotline of the gospel gets buried under traditions, performance, guilt, and noise. Anything that causes people to believe God's love rises and falls based on their obedience needs to be cut away. The heart of Christianity is not a religion of doing more. It is the announcement that Jesus has already done enough. We are fully known and fully loved, not because of what we have accomplished, but because of what He accomplished on the cross. The gospel is not the starting line. It is the whole race, and we never graduate from it.</p>

Fishing with Fire
<p>Enjoy this message from Pastor Tyler Schoenberger called "Fishing with Fire" on Sunday, June 14, 2026 at Reach Church in Bear, Delaware!</p><p><br></p><p>Traditional evangelism can feel intimidating to many Christians, but Jesus offers another powerful approach through what can be called party evangelism. This concept is rooted in Matthew 4:19 where Jesus tells his disciples he will make them fishers of men, and Matthew 5:14-16 where he calls believers the light of the world.</p><p><br></p><p>Party evangelism occurs when unbelievers encounter a community of people whose lives have been genuinely transformed by Jesus and find themselves thinking, I want what they have. Just as people are naturally drawn to parties where others are authentically enjoying themselves, people are attracted to church communities marked by real love, radical grace, and contagious joy. The early church in Acts 2:46-47 perfectly demonstrates this principle - they gathered with glad and generous hearts, praising God, and the Lord added to their number daily as people witnessed their authentic community.</p><p><br></p><p>Every Christian can participate in party evangelism without feeling pressure to engage in confrontational conversations. Your role might involve greeting newcomers with genuine warmth, volunteering to serve others, showing up consistently to make the community stronger, extending grace to difficult people, or simply letting your light shine through everyday interactions. The key is shifting from asking what you can get out of church to considering how you can contribute to displaying God's grace. When believers collectively let their light shine as a transformed community, people are naturally drawn to that light - much like fishermen in Taiwan who use fire to attract thousands of fish. The goal isn't to force or manipulate, but to create an authentic, grace-filled community that becomes irresistibly attractive to those seeking hope and belonging.</p>

Three Strikes and You’re Never Out
<p>Enjoy this message from Pastor Tyler Schoenberger called "Three Strikes and You’re Never Out" on Sunday, June 8, 2026 at Reach Church in Bear, Delaware!</p><p><br></p><p>The story of Peter's denial reveals a profound truth about God's character and His response to our failures. When Peter, whose name means rock, publicly denied knowing Jesus three times, he followed the same pattern we all do when we fail: he felt shame and isolated himself. This cycle of shame and withdrawal goes back to Adam and Eve hiding from God in the garden after their disobedience.</p><p><br></p><p>What makes this story remarkable is Jesus' response. After His resurrection, the first disciple Jesus appeared to was Peter. This demonstrates that Jesus has a habit of running toward people who sin, not away from them. He leaves the 99 to find the one lost sheep, searches for the lost coin, and runs toward the prodigal son. Jesus doesn't favor sinners, but He recognizes that we are all in the same category of needing grace. Romans 3 reminds us that every mouth should be stopped because we are all failures who have hurt people we love and continue to struggle with sin.</p><p><br></p><p>The beautiful truth is that Jesus doesn't rename us according to our failures. Even after Peter's denial, he was still called the rock. Jesus knew every sin we would ever commit before He died for us 2,000 years ago, and nothing surprises Him or makes Him withdraw His love. In John 21, Jesus restored Peter by asking him three times if he loved Him, once for each denial, then commissioning him to feed His sheep. When we fail, we hear two competing voices: hell's accusations telling us we're hopeless, and heaven's gentle invitation to come home. God doesn't wait on the porch with crossed arms but runs to meet us with celebration, reminding us that His grace is always available and His feast is prepared for failures like us.</p>
