Disciple Making - The pathway to Greatness
2 Timothy 2:1-10 | Sun, Mar 02, 2025 | Pastor Ken Schultz
Share
This message emphasizes that true greatness in God's kingdom is achieved through disciple-making. Using 2 Timothy 2:1-10, the message highlights Paul's mentorship of Timothy as an example of how believers should invest in others to multiply disciples. The pathway to greatness is not about personal achievement but about surrendering to Christ, enduring hardships, and faithfully passing on the Gospel to future generations.
Budget for following Christ
Luke 14:25-33 | Sun, Nov 16, 2025 | Pastor Ken Schultz

In this message we are invited to reframe what “budget” means in the life of a follower of Jesus Christ: it’s not just about money, but about giving of our time, talents, priorities and resources in such a way that follows His economy. We are challenged to count the cost, allocate wisely, and trust that when we surrender, God supplies more than we think.

Rethinking Greatness
Luke 22:24-30 | Sun, Feb 23, 2025 | Pastor Ken Schultz

The world defines greatness through power, status, and personal achievement, but Jesus flips this concept by demonstrating that true greatness is found in servanthood and humility.

The Profile of a Disciple
Luke 14:25-27 | Sun, May 01, 2022 | Kim Dockus

A healthy community, a people willing to serve, and training are what make disciples in our church. Disciples are eager to learn with a desire to teach. They are everyday people committed to serving our Lord and encouraging others to also follow the Gospel.

A New Year to Love
| Mon, Dec 29, 2008 | Pastor Ken Schultz

As we face a new year what is going to make this year extraordinary? Is it losing weight? Making more money? Having more friends? Jesus has a new command that if obeyed could make this and extraordinary year. It is to "Love one another." Obeying with command will revive our church, your relationship with God, bring rival to others in our community. While breathing makes one physically alive. Loving makes one spiritually alive.

Faith Works
James 2:14-26 | Sun, May 31, 2026 | Pastor Ken Schultz

This message unpacks James 2:14–26, where James challenges the idea of faith without action by asking whether such faith can truly save. It explains that faith without works is dead. The message also clarifies that salvation is by grace through faith in Jesus, but genuine saving faith is always demonstrated through a transformed life and obedient action.

Law of Liberty
James 2:8-13 | Sun, May 17, 2026 | Pastor Ken Schultz

This message explores the biblical idea of the “Law of Liberty” through James 2:8–13, focusing on how believers are called to live lives marked by mercy, love, and obedience to God.

Authentic Love
James 2:1-7 | Sun, May 10, 2026 | Pastor Ken Schultz

In The Epistle of James 2:1–7, James teaches that authentic faith is revealed through authentic love — a love that refuses to show partiality or rank people based on wealth, appearance, status, or influence. The message warns believers against favoritism and reminds the church that every person is made in the image of God and equally valuable because of Christ’s sacrifice.

What true religion looks like
James 1:25-26 | Sun, May 03, 2026 | Pastor Ken Schultz

This message explores what genuine faith looks like according to James 1:26–27, emphasising that true religion is not outward appearance but inward transformation expressed through action.

Joy in Trial
James 1:1-8 | Sun, Apr 12, 2026 | Pastor Ken Schultz

The Song of Victory
Psalm 16:1-11 | Sun, Apr 05, 2026 | Pastor Ken Schultz

This message unpacks Psalm 16 as a prophetic “song of victory” pointing to the resurrection of Jesus Christ. It shows that true security, joy, and identity are found not in circumstances or worldly pursuits, but in God alone. Because Jesus rose from the dead, believers can live with unshakable hope, knowing that death is defeated and fullness of joy is found in God’s presence.
