"SumOne: Kingdom Inheritance" - Pastor Erin Arruda

There are hundreds of kingdoms that have risen and fallen throughout history. But there is one and only one that claims to be an everlasting kingdom and it is the Kingdom of God. Pastor Erin teaches that there are five everlasting inheritances that belong to those who call the King of Kings their Father: Rest, a Voice, Passion, Purpose, and Power. Which one do you need to receive today?

“Sum One: Reconcilers who Need Restoration” - Pastor Chuck Ammons

"Every space where you sense separation between the HOPE God has spoken and the HEALING you’re presently holding is an invitation to restoration." In this message, we go to John 21 and join Peter on the beach. Though Jesus has raised from the dead, Peter has returned to what is predictable and familiar, no longer sure where he ‘fits' in the bigger story. Jesus’ reinstatement of Peter is an invitation to us to receive RESTORATION, so that we go forth as ministers of RECONCILIATION. If you’ve been hurt, wounded, or disoriented in the days you’re in, this is a message for YOU!

“Letting Wonder Out of the Grave” - Pastor Chuck Ammons

The greatest enemy to the fully surrendered life for Jesus is the death of wonder. We’ve all had our hearts broken in ways that make it hard to hope again. In this message, Pastor Chuck shares 4 responses of those who witnessed Jesus’ resurrection: some wrestled toward wonder; some chose to re-learn wonder; some refused wonder altogether…but every heart who saw Him for who He was couldn’t keep wonder to themselves. In living hope, they CLUNG to Jesus and RAN to tell their brothers, their sisters, their mothers, their fathers…their friends. It’s time we follow them in wonder once again.

“Sum One: When Love Comes to Town” - Pastor Chuck Ammons

We want our lives to really count, but if we are being honest, way too many of us feel exhausted, disconnected, and ineffective, as we continue at a pace that is unsustainable. In this message, Pastor Chuck returns to the very first Palm Sunday with a clarion call back to the SIMPLE Gospel that refreshes, restores, and transforms our souls and our cities. 

"The Lord is our Serenity: The Peace of Trusting God for Right Now and All that is to Come" - Pastor Chuck Ammons

 

God is so good, and He has shown Himself to be faithful again and again. The problem is…we’re forgetful and have a tricky tendency to put the whole world back on our own shoulders, through trying to fix our own past, to escape our present, or secure our own future. In this message, Pastor Chuck calls all of us to look up on the field and see where God is pursuing us with His Goodness and Mercy TODAY, rejoicing that if God is chasing you, He’s gonna win. He’s a better runner than you are!

"The Lord is our Success: The Hope of Finding our Voice, Overcoming our Obstacles, and Thriving in who we were Created to Be" - Pastor Chuck Ammons

What is ’success’ for the follower of Jesus? Is it accumulating possessions to comfort and secure us? Acquiring positions where others revere us? Or is it something else entirely? In this message, Pastor Chuck shares the invitation of God’s upside-down Kingdom of a table in the wilderness in the very presence of our enemies…so that we AND THEY might be invited closer to take a seat as a friend of God.

“The Lord is Our Security: The Confidence of ‘Fearing No Evil” - Pastor Chuck Ammons

For many of us, sometime between our spiritual childhood and adulthood (and often many other times throughout our journey), we find ourselves facing a ‘dark night of the soul’ or a ‘wilderness experience’ where yesterday’s faith simply doesn’t work anymore. These valleys can be disorienting, overwhelming, or downright scary. The question isn’t IF we will face trials that are too big for us; it’s where we will look when it does. This matters greatly because, “the deserts of your life will either ultimately REFINE you or they will DEFINE you!” In this message, Pastor Chuck points our attention to see our Shepherd leading us through the shadows of our trials! 

"When We're in the Valley" - Pastor Erin Arruda

We fear even the reference of the Psalm 23:4 "valley of the shadow of death." We forget that shadows require light to even be seen. Jesus has joined us in our valleys to shed light on the difficulties we face. He does this to polish us and to forge his character in us so that we will experience fullness even in lack. 

"The Lord is Our Sustenance: Rhythms of Rest and Roads of Renewal" - Pastor Chuck Ammons

We humans have a restlessness problem. Whether wrestling with over-busyness, loneliness, or a lack of vision or purpose, many find themselves physically, emotionally, and spiritually tired...and desperately longing for any kind of hope. In this message, Pastor Chuck calls us to see Jesus standing on the field where we live, inviting us into true rest. Filled with practical ideas that can bear immediate fruit, this is a welcomed message for the over-tired and the weary.
