The Gift of Frankincense: Jesus Our High Priest
Mediated: How Jesus' Sacrifice as High Priest Closes the Gap Between God and Humanity
In this message, the first of a series on the three gifts of the Magi, we explore the prophetic significance of Frankincense. This ancient incense points directly to Jesus as our great High Priest, the one who mediates between a Holy God and a sinful people. Discover how Jesus' once-for-all sacrifice provides complete cleansing and allows us to "come boldly to the throne of our gracious God" (Hebrews 4:16). Stop trying to clean up your "stank" and instead, be clothed in the righteousness He offers.

Alive and Active: The Enduring Significance of God's Word
n the final message of the "Alive and Active" series, Pastor Aaron explores the enduring significance of God's Word in a world full of competing voices. This sermon reminds us that scripture is not just for information, but for personal transformation, as it is the very foundation that:
1. Directs my steps (Joshua 1:8)
2. Defines what's true (John 17:17)
3. Develops my character (1 John 2:3-4)
Learn how to apply the SOAP method and commit to hearing, trusting, and obeying God's Word to experience a life that is truly alive and active.

How to Read the Bible: Letting God’s Word Transform You
A practical guide to Scripture that moves beyond reading — into life-changing transformation.
Many people want to read the Bible more but don’t always know where to start. In this message, Journey Church walks through simple, practical steps to help you build a meaningful Bible-reading rhythm that actually transforms your life.
Using key passages like Hebrews 4:12 and Colossians 3:16, we explore how God’s Word is alive, powerful, and meant to fill your life — not just inform you.
You’ll learn how to:
Choose a clear translation
Pick a good starting point
Set a consistent time and place
Develop a simple reading plan
Avoid eisegesis and practice exegesis
Use the S.O.A.P. method (Scripture, Observation, Application, Prayer)
Pray before and after reading
Share what you learn and obey God’s leading
We study the Bible not just to gain information, but to allow God to shape our hearts, homes, marriages, and minds. This message will help you move from just reading Scripture… to letting Scripture read you.
The Bible Is Alive
Why Scripture Still Matters — And How It Transforms Your Life
In this message, Pastor Ken launches a brand-new series on the Bible — not as an old book of ancient words, but as the living, God-breathed letter from our Heavenly Father. We live in a generation with more access to Scripture than ever before… yet we read it less than ever. Why? What keeps us from engaging God’s Word? And how do we unlock the life and transformation that comes when we truly open His Book?
In this message we learn:
why the Bible is unlike any other book
how Scripture is both alive and active
why the Bible still points to Jesus on every page
how reading God’s Word can transform the decisions we make each day
This is a call to return to Scripture with fresh hunger and fresh passion — because the Bible isn’t just information… it’s invitation.
Amen: God Is Able
In this message, Pastor Al Yanno unpacks the power behind a single word: “Amen.” From Ephesians 3:20–21, he shows how Amen is more than a closing line—it’s a declaration of confidence, abundance, empowerment, and worship. Hear stories of church planting, foster care ministry, and a powerful family testimony of freedom and restoration. You’ll be challenged to trust God in every season and to live as His Amen in the world.
Going on Offense
When the enemy pushes you down, push back in prayer.
What if the very thing meant to drag you down could be the fuel for making an eternal difference?
