True happiness comes through the pursuit of God's righteousness. Brett McDonald | Senior Pastor Matthew 5:6

Jesus is not calling us to something he avoided. He suffered unjustly, but he just kept on trusting his Father. How do you become meek? Look to Jesus. Brett McDonald | Senior Pastor Matthew 5:5

Grief is temporary for God's people because one day we will finally arrive at our destination. Brett McDonald | Senior Pastor

God's very best blessings belong to the ones who know they're the least deserving of them. Brett McDonald | Senior Pastor

Are you a disciple or are you part of the crowd? The crowd stays on the fringes and wonders, "What's in it for me?" The crowd leaves when Jesus says something they don't like. The crowd is there for the spectacle or to be seen by others. But disciples draw near. They listen. They learn. They surrender. Because they know who Jesus is and what he is worth. And they know he deserves all of our allegiance. Brett McDonald | Senior Pastor Matthew 4:18-5:2

Let Heaven rule your whole life. Heaven's peace in your heart. Heaven's gratitude in your mouth. God's word dwelling in you. Let all of your life be directed by heavenly priorities. Brett McDonald | Senior Pastor

The earth is restored. No more disaster. No more injustice. No more sickness. No more death. Relationships perfected. No more misunderstanding. No more jealousy. No more hatred. No more unforgiveness. Face to face with God. In his city. With his people. Perfectly enjoying his presence in our new home forever. Brett McDonald | Senior Pastor

Heaven is a real place. There's a place for you there. You are wanted there. And Jesus is the way. So don't let your heart be troubled today. Trust Jesus when he says he's gone to prepare a place for you. Brett McDonald | Senior Pastor

What comes next? Are you ready? Whether you have faced the reality of death or whether your life feels invincible, the same truth remains. Jesus died. Jesus rose. And one day, those who belong to Jesus will too. Brett McDonald | Senior Pastor

Worthy are you, our Lord and God, to receive glory and honor and power, why? Because he created all things and by his will they exist and were created. He is the source of everything. He stands above it all. He is holy. Brett McDonald | Senior Pastor
