The Bible Project - Joy (Week Three)
Full Sermon // December 14, 2025
“I’ve got the joy, joy, joy, joy down in my heart - where - down in my heart - where - down in my heart…”
Joy is something found deep down inside that no thing can take from us.
Joy is the word of the week in our Advent series this week. Pastor Jeni preaches about the importance of joy, the gift that it is to us, and where it is found. Join us for a wonderful message on the Joy of the Lord.
Things to consider as you listen:
Truth stabilizes. Purpose fortifies.
How do we maintain joy when life is not joy-filled?
The gift of God’s presence is the source of joy no matter our circumstances.
Joy is a product of the Holy Spirit alive in us.
Because of the Resurrection of Christ, no one can steal our joy.
Jesus is our joy!
Christ has come. Christ is coming. Christ WILL come again.

Full Sermon // December 7, 2025
We are in the second week of the Advent season! This week we focused in on the peace that Christ brought and brings to our lives. Pastor Jeni Hall is back with us once again to preach the sermon as we discover how peace can exist deep within us because of Jesus Christ; a peace that surpasses understanding.
Things to consider as you listen:
We do not become chaos immune when we choose obedience to Jesus.
We live in this anticipatory Shalom - we live expecting and awaiting the day when all will be made right.
We are most like our Father in heaven when we not only live at peace, but when we bring peace to spaces.
We don’t just dine in peace at the table in the midst of chaos, but often God asks us to scoot over & make room at the feast of peace for our enemies.

CELEBRATION SUNDAY.
This Sunday we celebrated together what we call CELEBRATION SUNDAY in which we had both our english-speaking congregation and spanish-speaking congregation joined together in unified worship within the same service. We had a wonderful time encountering God as one church family.
ADVENT WEEK 1: HOPE
This Sunday was also the first week of Advent. Pastor Amanda preached on the Hope that comes as we move into this time of excitement surrounding Christ’s birth. We kicked off Advent well remembering that “We are people of hope.” Join us this week for a message that will bring encouragement, light to darkness, and hope.
Things to consider as you listen:
The silence was not absence - it was preparation.
When God seems distant, silent, or late… that is often when He is preparing a miracle. He is never absent. He is never late.
God often begins His greatest works invisibly.
The church has always been most powerful when the world is at its darkest.
God’s Grace is always reaching and saving. God’s imprint is on all of His creation and He moves it toward His purpose.
Every act of compassion reveals the hand of God.
WE ARE PEOPLE OF HOPE.
*There was trouble with the livestream recording this week. In place of an audio recording this week, we have linked the YouTube recording for you to listen to the message.

This Sunday, the week before Thanksgiving, Pastor Beau Hamilton fittingly preaches on gratitude. As we move into this intentional week of thankfulness, Pastor Beau speaks of a few different and unique ways we can be grateful. Join us for a purposeful message on gratitude.
Things to consider as you listen:
Three Ways to Show Gratitude…
Gratitude toward God.
Gratitude toward others.
Gratitude that leads to a life surrendered to Jesus Christ.
Gratitude opens the door to worship. It shifts our focus from what’s wrong in life to who is right - God himself.
Gratitude toward God always spills over into gratitude toward others.
When we live surrendered lives, gratitude becomes visible.
It’s not just spoken; its seen in how we love, how we serve, howe we forgive, how we give.
Remember Daily.
Rejoice Intentionally.
Rrespond Faithfully.

This week we start into a new sermon series through the book of Ecclesiastes titled, “Meaningless”. Have you ever asked yourself, “what’s the point?” when referring to the things of life? This series is for you! Pastor Jeni starts this week by introducing that very point. Join us for this sermon series as we go through one of the most unique books in Scripture together, discovering what the “Author” and the “Teacher” have to say about life under the sun.
Things to consider as you listen:
The Bible is full of many diverse literary styles.
Literary style impacts interpretation.
Ecclesiastes is often categorized as wisdom literature.
2 characters in Ecclesiastes: The Author & the Teacher
Qohelet - “Teacher” - translated to mean “convener of an assembly” or “collector of sentences”
Hebel - “meaningless” - literal translation is “breath” or “vapor”
The pleasures & accomplishments of life are meaningful, but they do not provide ultimate meaning.
Author’s Summary:
Wisdom is good even though sometimes it hurts.
Everything will be judged.
The Solution: Fear God & obey his commands.
