Have you ever felt like "home" is a place where you are not? In this message, we explore the concept of home—not as a physical location, but as a place of rest, well-being, and total acceptance.

Drawing from the famous story of the Prodigal Son in Luke 15, we look at a powerful truth: Sin changes our view of God, but it never changes God’s view of us. Whether you feel like the younger brother in the "pig pen" of life or the older brother struggling with resentment, the Father is waiting with open arms.

Have you ever felt like you should be a "better Christian" by now? After decades of following Jesus, many of us still feel a gap between where we are and where we thought we’d be. In this message, we look at the famous story of Jesus walking on the water (Matthew 14) to discover a liberating truth: God isn't looking for "Super Disciples"—He’s looking for a human-sized you.

"Jesus died so I don’t have to be perfect anymore."

If you're caught in the cycle of people-pleasing, perfectionism, or the need to control every outcome, you are carrying a weight you weren't meant to hold. This sermon dives into Genesis 3 to show how the enemy uses "false needs" to fuel our anxiety. Discover how to bridge the gap between what you know about God and what you actually experience with Him.

In this message you will learn:

- How to distinguish between the Holy Spirit's conviction and the Inner Critic’s condemnation.

- The "Roman Gospel" vs. the Gospel of Jesus.

- The "King’s Protocol": Why God deserves the first and last word in your life.

- How to lower the defenses that keep you from experiencing God's transformational love.

Do you ever feel like there’s a massive gap between what you say you believe about God and what you actually experience in your daily life? In this message, we dive into the "gaps" of the Christian faith: believing God loves us but not feeling it, believing He is with us but not seeing it, and the frustration of feeling like we should be "further along" by now.

This is the first in a series that is based on the book, "The Expectation Gap" by Steve Cuss.
