What comes to mind when you hear the phrase “spiritual warfare”?
In this sermon we look at the biblical and historical exploration of spiritual warfare, unpacking four prominent Christian viewpoints: Cessationist, Pentecostal, Continuationist, and a seeking-yet-discerning stance.
We examine how early church history and Scripture define the enemy's tactics, showing how demonic forces aim to deceive, distract, and intimidate believers.
More importantly, we discuss how to respond. Spiritual warfare isn't about living in fear or becoming obsessed with darkness. It's about standing firm in the victory Jesus already secured on the cross. We discuss practical ways to take up the full armor of God, dismantle spiritual strongholds through prayer and Scripture, and live on mission with confidence.

Acts 19: Are you borrowing Jesus or belonging to Jesus?
What is the difference between borrowing the power of Jesus and belonging to Jesus?
Key Passage: Acts 19:13–20
In Acts 19, the seven sons of Sceva tried to use Jesus' name as a spiritual formula without actually knowing Him. The result is one of the Bible's most sobering questions: "Jesus I know, and Paul I recognize, but who are you?"
This message explores the difference between knowing about Jesus and truly belonging to Him. Paul's courage didn't come from self-confidence but from trusting Christ in the midst of fear. In contrast, the sons of Sceva relied on Jesus' name without surrendering their lives to His lordship.

Family Rhythms
We don’t become what we intend, we become what we repeatedly practice.
In this message, we explore how everyday family rhythms are already discipling our households, for better or worse. Drawing from Hebrews 10:24–25, Galatians 6:7–9, Psalm 1:1–3, and Deuteronomy 6:6–7, we look at why devotion erodes in isolation, how habits shape the heart, and why God calls families to be formed through shared practices in His presence.
Bedtime blessings, the dinner table, technology, worship, and leadership in the home; this teaching invites families to choose rhythms fueled by a greater love and to become practicing (not perfect) families who quietly proclaim, “the Lord is good to me” (Romans 12:1; Ephesians 3:14–15).
