Go Immerse
Acts 2 | Sun, Mar 23, 2014 | Pastor Ken Schultz

To obey Jesus’s command, we must go make disciples not converts. To make disciples is to immerse them in the fellowship of the Trinity. In this message, Pastor Ken looks at the fellowship of the immersed church in Acts 2, which brought the fruit of repentance to the very ones that called for Jesus to be crucified.
Go Keep
Romans 12:9-21 | Sun, Mar 30, 2014 | Pastor Ken Schultz

Religion tries to change us from the outside in, but Jesus changes us from the inside out. As we receive the truth of God’s love expressed in Jesus His son, we are changed. We must keep people in the love of God as we fulfill Jesus commission to make disciples. We are kept in His love and we shepherd and keep others in that unchanging Love.

Go Make
Matthew 28:1-20 | Sat, Mar 15, 2014 | Pastor Ken Schultz

Jesus asked us to engage the world with the gospel and the job is not finished yet. There 2.6 billion people who have not heard the simple message that Jesus died for their sins, was raised to new life again in 3 days and that faith in Him and what He did will bring them everlasting life. When we look at the empty tomb it should send us running to tell a dying world that there is hope in Jesus.

The war within
James 4:1-12 | Sun, Jun 14, 2026 | Pastor Ken Schultz

This message explores James 4:1–12 and teaches that the conflicts we experience with others often originate from sinful desires, pride, and divided loyalties within our own hearts. James calls believers to stop blaming external circumstances, humble themselves before God, submit to Him, resist the devil, and receive God's abundant grace.

Meekness of Wisdom
James 3:13-18 | Sun, Jun 07, 2026 | Pastor Ken Schultz

This message from James 3:13–18 explores the difference between worldly wisdom and godly wisdom. Using the analogy of competing operating systems, the message argues that our words, conflicts, and behaviors reveal what is happening in our hearts. The central challenge is not simply behavior modification, but allowing God to transform the heart so that wisdom produces peace, humility, mercy, and righteousness.

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.
