Is God Good? | Look At The Life Of Jesus - Micah Seth

Experiencing God's goodness is directly tied to spiritual alignment: recognizing Jesus as divine and following God's will enables one to witness His goodness, while rejecting Jesus or altering God's will prevents it.

Is God Good? | Why Is The World Broken? - Dave McCants

Ever felt like life is just "off" despite your best efforts? In this episode, we tackle the heavy question: If God is good, why is the world so broken? We explore the idea that the world's pain isn't a design flaw, but a distortion caused by sin like rust corrupting metal. While we all play a part in this brokenness, there is incredible hope in the reality that God didn't stay distant; He stepped directly into the mess through Jesus to rescue and redeem us.

Is God Good? | Why Does Evil Exist - Dave McCants

God is the source of all morality. What is in harmony with God’s character is “good” and everything that departs from it is “evil”.

Is God Good? | The Resurrection - Dave McCants

The resurrection of Jesus serves as historical evidence that God is truly real and good. It serves as a powerful reminder that death and evil don’t get the final word because God is personally present in our lives and is still working to restore everything.

Metamorphosis | A New Victory - Dave McCants

This week’s message was all about how a transformed life lets go of the natural urge for revenge and instead trusts God to be the one who eventually sets things right. We looked at Romans 12:19-21 to see that true victory isn't found in getting even, but by choosing radical kindness and grace, just like Jesus did for us .

Metamorphosis | A New Response - Dave McCants

Spiritual metamorphosis shifts us from our instinctive, "fleshly" reactions when we're hurt towards a supernatural response modeled by Jesus. By leaning into the power of the Holy Spirit, we can learn to bless those who challenge us and actively pursue peace in every relationship, regardless of the situation.

Metamorphosis | A New Love - Dave McCants

As we continue in our Metamorphosis series, we look at Romans 12:9–13 and what real Christian love looks like. Paul the Apostle describes a love that is sincere, devoted to others, patient in hard times, and generous with what we have. When God changes our hearts, it changes the way we love people. We are challenged this week to be a people like that and let our love be sincere no matter who it is.

Metamorphosis | Seat At The Table - Dave McCants

This week we continue in our series through Romans 12. Through God's grace, every believer has a place and a purpose in the body of Christ. When we see ourselves with humility and use the gifts God has given us, the church functions the way it was designed, with each person taking their seat at the table and serving the body together.

Metamorphosis | Transformed - Dave McCants

Real change doesn’t start with behavior, it starts with transformation. Today we walk through Romans 12:1–2 and discover what it means to be changed from the inside out. God isn’t after surface-level improvement or religious performance. He’s inviting us to surrender fully, renew our minds, and allow Him to reshape the way we think, live, and love.

This series is about becoming who God designed us to be, not by conforming to the world around us, but by being transformed through Him.

KEPT | Love The World - Dave McCants

In Jude 22–25, we’re reminded that our mission isn’t to win arguments, it’s to love people. We’re called to show mercy to those who doubt, to gently help those who are struggling, and to step in when someone is drifting toward danger. It’s a call to compassion with courage. Jude ends with a powerful reminder that God is the one who keeps us steady and faithful. This message challenges us to lead with mercy, stay rooted in truth, and confidently live out our mission to love the world.
