”Unveiled Love: That Pursues Enemies” - Pastor Chuck Ammons

Unveiled Love that Pursues Enemies until they are God’s friends! "In the Kingdom of God, we are free to lay down our wrongs, but we won’t ‘live free’ until we lay down our rights!” In this message, Pastor Chuck dives into the story of Jonah and the parable of the prodigal son to look at the incredible gift of God’s mercy! His mercy allows us to lay down absolutely every wrong we’ve ever carried…but it also demands we lay down every claim to ‘our rights.’ This is a powerful message about re-discovering the joy of our salvation AND stepping into the anointing to love difficult people, even enemies — and to pursue them with His mercy until they are His friends!

 

”Unveiled Love: Elijah” - Pastor Chuck Ammons

Unveiled Love: Elijah — The Father who chooses self-emptying love over pride and violence.  Throughout history, people of faith have been the catalysts for some of the greatest innovations on earth…and some of the greatest injustices. In this message, Pastor Chuck steps into the story of Elijah and the prophets of Baal, sharing the danger of when we confuse our mission on earth and find ourselves attempting to build empires where we were called to lay down our lives in love. The pride of living for me will always result in violence toward you eventually…but praise God, He made another way! 

”Unveiled Love: Moses — The Father’s Heart for the Stuck, the Hungry, and the Restless” - Pastor Chuck Ammons

Moses was celebrated as “the most patient man on earth.” Even still, he was not able to enter the Promised Land of Rest because of his own restlessness and striving. In this message, Pastor Chuck shares how Jesus came as the fulfillment of Moses and released the Father’s heart to set free struggling hearts, feed hungry souls, and finally finish our striving. Receive how He IS the Promised Land whose rest you can enter today!

 

”Send Her: The Father’s Heart for His Daughters” - Pastor Chuck Ammons

From the beginning, God created humanity — male and female — to walk in co-equal partnership to reflect His image and release His love upon the earth. In this message, Pastor Chuck offers clarity to Bible passages that have been used to limit the voice or role of women in the church and points to three ways Jesus is calling His daughters to walk alongside their brothers!

”Help!” - Pastor Erin Arruda

It's okay to ask for help. We cannot accomplish the work the Lord has called us to do on our own. The Father has provided a Helper for us all. And the Holy Spirit does the hard, unseen work that many mamas are familiar with. We must cry out for help. We must recognize our Helper. 

 

We must honor our Helper.  We must receive our Helper. What a wonderful Mother's Day gift! 

”Unveiled Love in the Fathers of our Faith” - Pastor Chuck Ammons

Unveiled Love in the Fathers of our Faith: “I am the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob!” This calling card for God shows up over and over again in the pages of the Bible. In this message, Pastor Chuck shares how these three sons exemplify all of the false identities and pursuits we seek to wrestle for a name, inheritance, and position that our Father has already delighted to GIVE us! No matter where you’ve been, who you are, or how you struggle, God is drawing near to move you to a new place with a new portion so you live from a new position. Intimacy. Inheritance. Identity. Hear how it’s all yours if you’ll only receive it!

 

“Unveiled: If God is so good, why do things sometimes go so bad?” - Pastor Chuck Ammons

“If God is so good, why do things sometimes go so bad?” This central question has been asked by countless people through the centuries and the conclusion we draw largely shapes the story we think we are in. In this message, Pastor Chuck leads us through the story of Job to see how God is at work in the furnace of our pain — never to resist our dreams, but to refine US to stand under them! 

”Unveiled Love: Jesus” - Pastor Chuck Ammons

In the past, God spoke to our Fathers in many ways: through priests & prophets, through judges & kings, through foreigners & little children. God spoke through a giant fish saving a wayward preacher. He spoke through the suffering of a righteous servant. He spoke through water from a rock and fire from the sky. But in these LAST days, He has spoken once and for all in the language of a Son. In this message, Pastor Chuck shares how Jesus came to reveal the deep tenderness and relentless pursuit of who God has always been as our Father — and how seeing our Story through the lens of Jesus changes the road we are traveling upon!

”Peacemaker: Building a Culture of Blessing” - Pastor Chuck Ammons

Cancel Culture. Public Outrage. Restlessness. Pointing Fingers. There are many days it feels the whole world is burning with cynicism, anger, and blame. What does it look like for followers of Jesus to see His Kingdom Come today “on earth as it is in heaven?” In this message, Pastor Chuck shares three identifying marks of a culture of blame and, much more importantly, how Peacemakers can build a culture of blessing one thought, one word, and one action at a time!
