C3 Victory Sunday Sermons

Our mission is people, not programs.In this message, Pastor Darren continues our “Our Mission is People” series by looking at Acts 1:8 and the call of Jesus to be His witnesses in Jerusalem, Judea, Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.This isn’t just a call to the people we naturally connect with; it’s a call to love, serve, and reach people who are different from us, overlooked by us, or even difficult for us to love.Through stories of local mission, Victory Care, food support, money mentoring, and community outreach, this message reminds us that the Holy Spirit empowers us to live beyond ourselves and carry the love of Jesus into our world.

What does it mean to truly be on mission?From hearing about the incredible work of Compassion on the ground in Indonesia to Pastor Karen's heartfelt reflections on decades of mission both locally and overseas, we were reminded in a fresh and meaningful way that the mission God has given us is not optional - it is the very heartbeat of what it means to be the church.

Happy Father's Day!In this sermon, we kick off our new series, looking at the first place we're called to make disciples... under our own roof. So how can we best raise our kids to not just succeed in life, but remain on the right path? Let's talk about it!

The church is a generational blessing.We are part of a living, growing community shaped by those who have gone before us and called to build for those who will come after us. In this message, we explore how the church creates an environment where faith can grow, lives can be strengthened, and the fire of God can be carried from generation to generation.Like a forest, the church provides covering, nourishment, and strength. The faithfulness, wisdom, prayers, and devotion of previous generations create a spiritual climate where others can flourish.And now, we have the opportunity to plant seeds, add fuel to the fire, and build something that will bless future generations.Jesus is still building His church, and every life planted in His house has a part to play.

What does it take to build a faith that can survive pressure, disappointment, loneliness, and hard seasons?In this message from our series “The Church: God’s Master Plan,” we look at what Scripture says about being planted in the house of God. Using passages from Jeremiah 17, Psalm 1, and Psalm 92, this sermon explores the difference between simply attending church and truly being rooted in godly community.God’s plan is not for you to live in isolation, be limited, or be spiritually dry. He calls His people to be like trees planted by streams of water, fruitful, strong, vibrant, and able to withstand every season.If you’ve felt stuck, disconnected, or like your faith isn’t growing, this message will challenge and encourage you to take a deeper step into community, purpose, and spiritual strength.
