For those of us who have a tendency to overcomplicate things and get stuck, James encourages us to pursue a simple way to connect with God in whatever circumstance we find ourselves in.

What does it look like to keep following Jesus when life gets hard? In James 5:7-12, we’re reminded that the life of faith requires patient endurance, but we never have to run the race alone.

James contrasts two wisdoms. A false wisdom, characterized by self-centeredness, that promises flourishing but leads to disorder - a picture of de-creation. And a wisdom, characterized by a love for peace and humility, reflecting the work of God to bring about order and peace.
Speaker: Pastor Lorissa Medrano
Our words carry incredible power = for good and for harm. In James 3:1-12, we explore what our words reveal about our hearts and how Jesus transforms us from the inside out.
Speaker: Pastor Vince Medrano
James saw in Jesus the God in whom there is no variation, change, or shadow. There was a consistency to Jesus' connection with the Father and His love for others. As ones who have encountered the faithful, loving kindness of God we should have a glowing wholeness to our faith, that follows the consistency of Jesus' life.
Speaker: Pastor Lorissa Medrano
Who gets your attention? Who get your time? Who gets your respect? James 2 challenges us to confront the ways we rank people according to status, wealth, influence, and appearance. Following Jesus means learning to see people differently - and choosing the royal law of love over the invisible rankings of our culture.
Speaker: Pastor Vince Medrano
We live fractured lives. James points us towards our tendency of living with divided loyalties, trusting in God and enticed to emulate the ways of the world around us for our flourishing. In place of our fractured living, James urges us towards wholly living. To trust in a God who is lavish in his generosity in goodness, so much so that even in the spaces of our trials, He’s able to bring about a new and whole life.

In this message from our Childlike series, we look at the unnamed servant girl in 2 Kings 5, a young captive whose faith still believed healing was possible after life had given her every reason to stop believing. This story reminds us that God often begins healing through overlooked voices, that people are rarely as simple as our judgments make them, and that childlike faith is not unhurt faith. It is faith that still reaches for God with wounded hands. Naaman’s healing begins when a powerful man becomes humble enough to listen, go down, and receive what only God can give.

In a world obsessed with status, success, and recognition, Jesus offers a surprising answer. When the disciples ask who is greatest in God's kingdom, Jesus points to a child and reveals a radically different vision of greatness—one rooted in humility, dependence, and receiving our worth from God rather than earning it.
Speaker: Vince Medrano
God’s plan for the church is for all the members to be empowered to participate in His good work in the world. Together we experience Spirit poured out.
Speaker: Lorissa and Vince Medrano
Today we wrap up our story series with the last verse in Acts and celebrate the past year of our own being sent by God into the world.
Speaker: Lorissa Medrano
What if your ordinary life is actually a mission field? In Acts 13, the church in Antioch sends Paul and Barnabas out - revealing a powerful truth about the heart of God: He is a sending God. And if you follow Jesus, that means you've been sent too. This message explores what it means to live a "sent life" - not just overseas or on mission trips, but in your neighborhood, workplace, school, and everyday routings. Through Paul's journey, we discover ho God directs our steps, works through vocations, and uses ordinary faithfulness to bring renewal and hope to the world around us. Your job. Your city. Your story. None of it is accidental. You have been sent.
