In Week 5 of our Defining Moment series, we follow the story of Book of Esther and discover how God positions ordinary people for extraordinary moments. Through Esther’s courage, Mordecai’s conviction, and the unseen faithfulness of God, this message challenges us to stop blending in, step into our “even though” moments, and say yes to the calling God has placed in front of us. 

In Week 4 of our Defining Moments series, Rudy Cedillo walks through the life of Joseph and the defining moments that shaped his faith. From the pit, to the prison, to the palace, Joseph’s story reminds us that God is still present in seasons of betrayal, waiting, suffering, and obscurity.
This message explores how Joseph remained faithful when life felt unfair, forgotten, and painful—and how God used every hidden season as preparation, not punishment. Along the way, we see powerful connections between Joseph’s life and the life of Jesus Christ: innocent suffering, betrayal, forgiveness, and ultimate redemption.
No matter what season you’re walking through today, this sermon is a reminder that God is with you in the pit, in the prison, and in the waiting—and what was meant for evil, God can still use for good.

In Week 3 of Defining Moments, we look at the life of Abraham—the man Scripture calls the father of faith—and the pivotal moments that shaped his story. Through a call he couldn’t refuse, a season of waiting that tested everything, and a sacrifice that required complete surrender, Abraham’s journey reveals what it באמת means to trust God.
This message invites us to wrestle with the same question Abraham faced: will we trust God with our destination, our situation, and without reservation? Whether you’re in a season of uncertainty, waiting, or being asked to let go, this sermon points to a faithful God who always provides—and who can be trusted with it all.

In Before the Rain, Cy Calhoun walks through the life of Noah to show that defining moments aren’t built in an instant—they’re formed through quiet, daily faithfulness. Long before the flood came, Noah learned to trust God without seeing the outcome.
This message reminds us that what God is forming in you now matters. As you trust His faithfulness, you’ll be ready for the moments that define your life.

What if the moments that shape your life aren’t the obvious ones—but the quiet, everyday decisions no one else sees? In Week 1 of Defining Moments, we walk through Genesis 4 and the story of Cain and Abel to uncover how small choices, unchecked emotions, and subtle compromises can lead us further than we ever intended to go. But in the middle of the warning is hope: you don’t have to lose the moment in front of you. Through the better word of Jesus, you can choose a different story—one decision at a time.

This Easter message from 1 Corinthians 15 centers on the unshakable hope found in the resurrection of Jesus Christ. “Because He Lives…” explores how the empty tomb changes everything—proving Jesus is who He said He is, offering complete forgiveness, and declaring that death no longer has the final word.
 
With both compelling evidence and personal honesty, this sermon invites listeners to move beyond doubt and into surrender, reminding us that because Jesus lives, our past is redeemed, our future is secure, and our lives can be forever transformed.

On Palm Sunday, this message from Matthew 21:1–11 explores the tension between expectation and reality as Jesus enters Jerusalem. “Not What You Expected” reveals how the same crowd that shouted “Hosanna” would soon cry “Crucify Him,” challenging us to examine whether we’re following the real Jesus—or a version shaped by our own desires.
Through powerful storytelling and biblical insight, this sermon shows that Jesus didn’t come to meet expectations, but to meet our deepest need—offering redemption through His sacrifice rather than power through conquest.

This Mission Sunday, we welcomed Pastor Moses Wilson of Desi316 Church in the Dallas–Fort Worth area for a powerful conversation on God’s heart for the nations. Moses brings us into Acts 17:26–27, and shares his story, calling, and the unique opportunity to reach Indian and Hindu families right here in our communities.
Through testimony, Scripture, and honest dialogue, we explore the Great Commission, the significance of Easter, and what it looks like to live on mission where God has placed us. This episode also highlights a meaningful moment of partnership, prayer, and support as we come alongside the work God is doing through Desi316 Church.
Be encouraged and challenged to see your everyday life as part of God’s mission—and to take a step toward inviting someone to experience the hope of Jesus this Easter.

What does real faith look like when nothing makes sense—and nothing changes? In this final message from Habakkuk, we see a powerful picture of faith that wrestles, remembers, asks, fears, and ultimately chooses to trust God anyway. Even when circumstances fall apart, Habakkuk shows us how to worship, wait, and find strength in the God who never fails. When faith is all you have, you’ll discover—it’s enough.

When life doesn’t make sense and God feels silent, what does faith actually look like? In this message from Habakkuk 2, we wrestle with the tension between God’s justice and our waiting. Discover how God promises justice, why it can feel delayed, and what it means to live by faith in the meantime. This sermon points us to the cross—where justice and mercy meet—and reminds us that even in the waiting, God is still on the throne.
