We often try to protect our peace by controlling our circumstances, but real peace can’t be manufactured. This message unpacks how a renewed mind receives the peace of God — a peace strong enough to hold us steady even when life is unstable.
Your thoughts are not neutral—they are forming you.
In Romans 12, Paul tells us that transformation happens through the renewing of the mind. In this message, we look at what it means to live with the mind of Christ and why the direction of our thoughts ultimately becomes the direction of our life. What we believe, dwell on, and rehearse shapes the way we love, lead, decide, and respond.
In Luke’s account of the temptation of Jesus, we see a clear pattern in how the enemy operates—attempting to push Jesus to prove his identity in the flesh when God had already established his identity in the Spirit. This message explores the connection between identity, temptation, and the discipline of fasting, and why fasting positions us for clarity, dependence on God, and spiritual breakthrough.
Peace is often something we expect to find on the other side of changed circumstances—but the story of Jesus tells a different story. In this message, Pastor Jordan explores how Jesus, the Prince of Peace, entered the world not in calm or comfort, but in chaos. Born in a manger amid political unrest and spiritual warfare, Jesus stepped directly into both the visible mess and the unseen battle in the heavenlies.
This message is a reminder that peace is not the absence of conflict or uncertainty. Because of who Jesus is, peace is possible even when circumstances remain unresolved.
Zechariah and Elizabeth knew the pain of unanswered prayer, just as Israel waited in silence for a Messiah. In Luke 1, we see that Zechariah’s silence wasn’t punishment—it was preparation, a space where God was quietly at work.
On Legacy Sunday, we study the Magi and how they navigated the first Christmas with clarity, joy, and generosity. Navigating Christmas offers a practical framework for keeping your heart centered on Jesus through the noise and pressure of the season.
We invite you to our end-of-year Legacy Offering at

In this message from Matthew 6:19–24, Pastor Jordan unpacks Jesus’ teaching on treasure, generosity, and the true source of security. Our security and identity remain vulnerable as long as our treasure is rooted in earthly things—but when our hearts are aligned with heaven, everything shifts.
God is a generous God, and His Spirit produces a generous identity in us. Generosity isn’t just something we do; it’s who we’re becoming as we reflect our Creator.
In this message on the Parable of the Talents from Matthew 25, Pastor Jordan unpacks what it means to be a faithful manager of all God entrusts to us. We explore how managers carry real responsibility and a measure of authority—yet ultimate authority always belongs to the Owner. A faithful manager doesn’t act independently but manages resources, opportunities, and influence in alignment with the owner’s values.
Pastor Matt McCloghry opens our new series Manager by exploring how we can honor God through wise, faithful stewardship of the resources entrusted to us.
Jesus looked beyond the crowd to find Zacchaeus. This message challenges us to do the same — to be present, aware, and ready for divine moments along the way.
Mission Sunday is a recalibration. It’s an opportunity for our church family to remember what it means to be a disciple of Jesus. In this message, Pastor Jordan uses the great commission in Matthew 28 to remind us that true discipleship is missional.
In the final installment of our series on the life of Daniel, Pastor Jordan unpacks Daniel chapter 10—a glimpse behind the curtain of spiritual warfare. Daniel’s prayer was heard and answered immediately, yet the fulfillment was delayed because of a battle in the unseen realm. This message reminds us that some delays aren’t denials—they’re spiritual conflicts that must be fought with spiritual weapons.
Daniel’s courage came from consistency. His strength in the lion’s den was rooted in his time with God. This message reminds us: you’ll never stand for God consistently if you only seek Him occasionally.
In this message from Daniel chapter 3, Pastor Jordan unpacks what it means to stand firm in your faith—no matter the pressure. Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego show us that who you stand with matters just as much as what you stand for. When obedience to God leads you into the fire, you don’t have to fear it—the same God who called you into it will stand with you in it.
In this week’s message, Pastor Jordan unpacks the story of Daniel facing one of the most impossible moments in Scripture — interpreting King Nebuchadnezzar’s dream. When everyone else panicked, Daniel responded with wisdom and tact. Discover four powerful ways Daniel navigated the impossible, and how you can do the same when life demands clarity, courage, and faith under pressure.
So many people say they’re “spiritual, not religious” because religion gets a bad reputation for being rigid, hypocritical, or lifeless. But what if religion itself isn’t the problem—what if the real issue is legalism and hypocrisy? In week one of Religious About It, Pastor Jordan unpacks why true religion is life-giving and transformative and how we can faithfully live it out in a culture that’s always shifting. Together we look at the three tests every follower of Jesus will face:
• The Test of Identity – knowing who we are in Christ.
• The Test of Convictions – standing firm when it costs us something.
• The Test of Time – remaining faithful for the long haul.
In this special four-year anniversary message at Harbour Church, Pastor Jordan unpacks the promise of Jesus in John 10: “I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.” True life is not something we wait for in eternity—it’s available here and now through following Him. But to follow Jesus, we must first be able to recognize His voice.
Wheat and Weeds by Harbour Church
In part four of our God Is a Gardener series, Pastor Jordan unpacks a vital truth: every garden requires both cultivation and protection. Cultivation produces growth, but protection preserves it. Just as a gardener defends against weeds, pests, and outside threats, we too must guard what God is growing in our lives. This message explores how to recognize and resist temptation so that the growth God has started in you doesn’t get stolen or destroyed.
Pruning isn’t punishment—it’s preparation. In this message, Pastor Jordan Rippy unpacks how God’s pruning process removes what is unhealthy, unneeded, or unproductive in our lives. When we resist it, we aren’t escaping pain—we’re only prolonging it. Pruning is a sign that God still sees potential in us and that He’s at work shaping us for greater fruitfulness.
