Be the Faithful Ones | Ryan Meade | Wilmington

Hebrews 11 delves into the "Hall of Faith" and its inspiring examples of Biblical heroes. Before diving into these legendary figures, we must first revisit Hebrews 10:35-39, reflecting on the initial fire and boldness we felt when we first embraced Jesus, despite trials and persecution. We are encouraged to remember the promises of God and to live by faith, even when the fulfillment of these promises seems distant. Highlighting stories of faith from Abel to Rahab, Hebrews 11 emphasizes that while some promises are realized in our lifetime, our "present future," others extend into our "future future," where eternal rewards await.
 
Join us in Wilmington for Senior Pastor Ryan Meade's powerful reminder to stay faithful, persevere through challenges, and keep our eyes on the ultimate reward.

I am Able | Dr. Noah Manyika

In addition to the freedom Jesus released to us through the Cross, He also gave us abilities to equip us for our unique ministry assignments in the marketplace. To be fully effective, we must reject pretense and insecurity, and instead know and own the "facts that matter" of our life's testimony.
 
Join us in Chapel Hill as Dr. Noah Manyika unpacks this message.

The Whole Earth is Filled with His Glory | Andy Squyres | Mooresville

It is easy to be disenfranchised or angered by the way of the world. However, Jesus came to reveal the glory of God on Earth today. The prophet Isaiah declares that the whole world is filled with the Glory of God. Let us set our eyes on that truth rather than allowing the world to corrupt and distract us from God's goodness and glory.
 
Join us in Mooresville as Pastor Andy Squyres shares a message of hope and encouragement in the midst of the discouragement of the world.

Boldly Come Before Our High Priest | Ryan Meade | Wilmington

Chapters 4 through 10 of Hebrews as we uncover how Jesus surpasses all human High Priests before him. Unlike them, Jesus serves without the limitations of weakness. His sacrificial offering, culmination in his death and resurrection, grants us direct access to God's mercy and grace allowing us to come boldly into his presence. Jesus not only fulfills the traditional duties of a High Priest but exceeds them in every way. He represents us continually before God, ministers from the heavenly Holy of Holies, and guarantees and mediates the new covenant.
 
Join us in Wilmington as Senior Pastor Ryan continues last week's message with a look at Jesus' ongoing intercession on our behalf.

Is God Good? | Nate Silverman | Mooresville

It's easy to declare, "God is good all the time," when life is smooth, but what about during war? How do we perceive His goodness when the stench of death is in the air? How do we trust in His goodness when we face the possibility of our death? Even when surrounded by our enemies, knowing that the Lord is with us right here and now is all we need.
 
Join us in Mooresville as special guest speaker Nate Silverman gives a soldier's firsthand account of the war in Israel and discovering God's goodness in tragedy and turmoil.

Understanding the Baptism of the Holy Spirit pt. 2 | Michael Pham | Chapel Hill

Understanding the baptism of the Holy Spirit and the gift of tongues with biblical clarity can empower us in utilizing the gift of tongues to glorify God.

Persisting with God pt. 2 | Cory Meade | Wilmington

In our walk with God, we encounter resistance on a daily basis from the world as it tries to pull you away from what the Lord has for us. Surviving in this fallen world requires persisting. Sometimes, we need a reminder about our blessings and about how important the presence of the Lord is in our lives.
 
Join us in Wilmington as Cory Meade continues his message from last week with an examination on how to persist with God after the blessing.

What Kind of House Will You Build for Me? | Becky Wicker | Chapel Hill

What kind of house we build for God is a question asked in the Book of Isaiah and again in the book of Acts. Particularly in this season, what kind of house we set our course upon to build for God is important. Christ being the cornerstone is central. As we demonstrate the heart of humble servant and gain more understanding of the commitment and love God has for humanity, we will see the beautiful Body of Christ rise up in our times and become all she was meant to be.
 
Join us in Chapel Hill as Pastor Becky Wicker chares more about the house God desires to build.
