The Questions of Jesus 1

Written by Lee Ames on . Posted in Sermon.

Jesus didn’t just give us answers…He asked questions.
<br>
Questions that slowed people down.
Questions that exposed what was really going on in the heart.
Questions that invited people into something deeper.
<br>
Throughout the Gospels, Jesus asks questions that still resonate today:
“Who do you say that I am?”
“Why do you doubt?”
“What can I do for you?”

These aren’t just questions for the people in the story; they might just be speaking to us as well.
<br>
In this series, we’ll look at some of the most powerful questions Jesus asked and consider what they reveal about our faith, our hearts, and the way we follow Him. Because transformation doesn’t begin with having all the right answers… it begins with being willing to wrestle with the right questions.

Thessalonians: Hope That Endures 4

Written by Lee Ames on . Posted in Sermon.

What does it look like to follow Jesus when life feels uncertain, and faith gets tested?

In Paul’s letters to the Thessalonians, we see a young church learning how to stand firm in the middle of challenges – anchoring onto a hope that doesn’t fade, and leaning into a faith that continues to grow. Their lives became a reflection of Jesus, marked by love, endurance, and a steady trust in God.

In this series, we’ll explore what it means for us to live the same way today, loving others well, and connecting to God’s greater story.

Whether you’re walking through a difficult season or simply wanting to deepen your faith, this is an invitation to discover a hope that endures, and to live a life that reflects it.

Encountering Jesus 6

Written by Lee Ames on . Posted in Sermon.

Encountering Jesus
We often assume we know where to find God — in the expected places, the familiar, and the comfortable rhythms. But throughout the Gospels, Jesus continually meets people in ways they never saw coming. In sometimes ordinary settings, unexpected conversations, and moments of doubt and grief… He shows up.
And He still does that today.
Encountering Jesus is a journey through real moments where people came face-to-face with Christ — not after they had everything figured out, but right where they were. Broken, searching, skeptical, hopeful. Each encounter reveals a Savior who does what only He can do: restore, call, heal, forgive, and transform.
If we stay open… if we keep seeking… we may discover that an encounter with Jesus isn’t just informative — it’s the beginning of the transformation we’ve been longing for.
Come and see. Jesus meets you right where you are.
