Sermon Series
Part 1 | Marked by the Heart of Jesus
-
Every day, we are bombarded with competing images telling us who we should be, images of success, performance, and self-sufficiency. But beneath those cultural stamps lies a much deeper, original identity.
In this first message of our new series leading to Easter, Mike Albano explores the profound truth of what it means to be made in the image of God. Using the same metaphor Jesus used with a Roman coin, we look at how our lives belong to the one whose likeness we bear. Discover how, though the divine image in us has been marred by sin, shame, and the pressures of the world, Jesus came as the "exact imprint" of God’s nature to reclaim and renew us.
This message is a call to recognize that you are not an accident; you bear the stamp, design, and breath of your Creator. Learn why the scars of Christ are the ultimate mark of mercy, transforming our judgment into freedom and inviting us to allow His truth to imprint our hearts in a fresh way.
Part 1 | Marked by the Faithfulness of Jesus
-
When we fail, we often expect God to respond with judgment or distance. But what if His response to our faithlessness is actually a deeper, more radical commitment to stay?
In this second message of our "Imprint" series, Jason Durst explores the heart of Jesus through the lens of one profound word: Faithfulness. Drawing from the intense and often uncomfortable story of the prophet Hosea and his marriage to Gomer, we see a vivid picture of God’s relentless pursuit of a people who have repeatedly turned away.
Through the stories of the woman caught in adultery in John 8 and the apostle Peter’s restoration, Jason challenges us to look past our shame and labels . Sharing a raw personal testimony of his own struggle with failure and the "marks of mercy" that followed, he unpacks the beautiful paradox of 2 Timothy 2:13: "If we are faithless, He remains faithful".
Discover why God's faithfulness isn't a reaction to our performance, but a reflection of His unchanging character. Whether you are running hard after God or feel like you’ve blown it all up, this message is a reminder that you are marked by a love that refuses to let go.
