In this message, you'll discover: Why compassion must move us from feeling to action. How creating margin in our schedules helps us serve others. Why we should never underestimate what God can do with what we offer Him. What Peter's experience on the water teaches us about faith and fear. Why we will always need Jesus, regardless of how mature we become in our faith. You don't have to have everything figured out or possess extraordinary abilities to make a difference. Bring what you have to Jesus, and trust Him with the results. And when you begin to sink, remember that you can call out to Him. Scripture: Matthew 14:1–36 Join us at Family Church!

What does Jesus want more than religious ritual? In Matthew 12, Jesus confronts the Pharisees over their understanding of the Sabbath and reveals something much deeper: God desires mercy, not empty religious performance. Pastor Woody walks through Matthew 12 and challenges us to examine our hearts. Are we simply checking religious boxes, or are we allowing Jesus to transform the way we treat people, respond to conviction, and live our everyday lives? This message also explores Sabbath as God's gift. Instead of seeing rest as another rule, we can learn to intentionally stop, rest, delight, and contemplate the Lord. Most importantly, Matthew 12 reminds us that our relationship with Jesus isn't about earning our place. Jesus calls us family.

You Are a Champion | Seeing Yourself the Way God Sees You | Family Church You are fearfully and wonderfully made. But how often do we actually live like we believe that? In this powerful message from Family Church, Daniel challenges us to stop defining ourselves by our mistakes and begin seeing ourselves through the eyes of God. Psalm 139:14 tells us that we are fearfully and wonderfully made, while Ephesians 2:10 reminds us that we are God's handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works. This message explores: What it means to be intentionally created by God Why we shouldn't define ourselves by our mistakes How to stop focusing on the "black dot" Why our inefficiencies don't disqualify us What it means to be wonderfully made How God gives us purpose What Ephesians 2:10 says about good works How to live as an example of Jesus Why parents need to speak life into their children What it means to be a champion of the faith Why our identity is rooted in Jesus Why Christians are called to encourage one another How to speak life instead of death Why we need to encourage the people already inside our church family How our spiritual family can become a place of belonging The "I love this about you" challenge How encouragement can become a way of sharing the Gospel The challenge is simple: See yourself the way God sees you. You are intentionally made. You are God's handiwork. You were created for good works. You are a champion of the faith. And you have an opportunity to encourage someone else this week. Speak life. Encourage someone. Be a champion. 📖 Psalm 139:14 📖 Ephesians 2:10 📖 2 Corinthians 5:17 #FamilyChurch #YouAreAChampion #Psalm139 #WonderfullyMade #IdentityInChrist #speaklife 00:00 Introduction — You Are a Champion 01:00 Family, Gratitude & Identity 02:00 Why We Beat Ourselves Up 03:00 Psalm 139:14 — Wonderfully Made 04:00 God Is Glorified in Our Inefficiencies 05:00 Finding Family at Family Church 06:00 What Does God Say About Us? 07:00 God the Craftsman 08:00 You Were Intentionally Made 09:00 Don't Define Yourself by Your Mistakes 10:00 Created for Good Works 11:00 Don't Get Caught in the Motions 12:00 A Word for Parents 13:00 Don't Forget the People Around You 14:00 You Are a Champion of the Faith 15:00 Speak Life and Encourage Others 16:00 Closing Prayer — Be a Champion 17:00 Family Church: Your Spiritual Family 18:00 The "I Love This About You" Challenge 19:00 Pray and See Yourself as God Sees You

What do you do when God doesn't work the way you expected Him to? In Matthew 11, John the Baptist finds himself in prison and begins to question whether Jesus really is the Messiah. The surprising part isn't that John has questions—the surprising part is how Jesus responds. Jesus doesn't shame John. He doesn't reject him. He answers him with kindness. This chapter reminds us that we can bring our questions to God. We can trust Him when life is difficult. We can repent when He reveals something that needs to change. And, most importantly, we can come to Jesus. Jesus says: "Come to me, all of you who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest." — Matthew 11:28 Whether you're tired, discouraged, confused, joyful, burdened, or simply don't know what to do next, the invitation is the same: Come to Jesus. In this message: God welcomes our questions Why following Jesus doesn't mean life will always be easy Trusting God when He doesn't work the way we expect The importance of repentance Staying teachable in our faith Finding rest in Jesus Learning to come to Jesus in every circumstance The Gospel of Matthew | Family Church 00:00 Introduction to Matthew 11 01:00 John the Baptist Questions Jesus 04:00 God Welcomes Our Questions 06:00 Jesus Praises John the Baptist 08:00 Hard Times With Jesus Are Better 10:00 The Upside-Down Kingdom 11:00 When God Doesn't Meet Our Expectations 13:00 Trusting God When We Don't Understand 15:00 Responding to Jesus 17:00 Repentance and Turning to God 18:00 Staying Teachable 21:00 Come to Jesus 23:00 Practicing the Presence of Jesus

What does it really mean to follow Jesus? In Matthew 10, Jesus takes His disciples from being learners to being sent ones. They had spent time watching Jesus, learning from Jesus, and growing—and now Jesus was sending them out to advance the Kingdom of God. In this message, Pastor Woody challenges us to understand that following Jesus is about more than Sundays. We are called to learn, grow, and go. You don't have to know everything before you can be used by God. You don't have to have all the answers. You simply need to be willing to obey. God has already given you something that someone else needs. Freely you have received. Freely give. This message explores: • What it means to move from disciple to sent one • Why Sundays alone will never be enough • How God wants to use what He's already taught you • Why you don't need all the answers to share Jesus • How to trust God when He sends you into difficult situations • Why obedience is more important than having the perfect words • How to recognize your value in God's eyes • What it means to live every day on assignment • How we can advance God's Kingdom in ordinary moments You are not simply a church attendee. You are a disciple. And if you're a disciple, you're also someone Jesus is sending. Learn. Grow. Go. 📖 Matthew 10 📍 Family Church 🎙️ Pastor Woody #FamilyChurch #Matthew10 #KingdomAdvancement #FollowingJesus #ChristianDiscipleship #YouAreSent 00:00 Welcome to Family Church 01:00 Why Fellowship Matters 02:00 Studying Matthew Together 03:00 Matthew 10 — Jesus Sends His Disciples 05:00 From Disciple to Apostle 07:00 You Are Sent 08:00 The Impossible Assignment 10:00 Freely You Have Received, Freely Give 12:00 Don't Let Religion Replace Love 13:00 Learning to Trust God's Provision 15:00 Sheep Among Wolves 16:00 The Cost of Following Jesus 18:00 Persecution and Difficult Times 20:00 Sometimes We Cause Our Own Problems 21:00 God Will Give You the Words 23:00 You Don't Have to Know Everything 24:00 Following Jesus Has a Cost 25:00 Don't Be Afraid 27:00 God Knows You and Cares About You 29:00 You Are Valuable 30:00 Acknowledging Jesus Publicly 32:00 Don't Deny Jesus Through What You Don't Do 34:00 Loving God More Than Anyone Else 35:00 Pick Up Your Cross and Follow Jesus 37:00 Your Job Is Obedience 38:00 Be Nice to Other Christians 39:00 The Enemy Wants You to Feel Worthless 40:00 You Are Valuable to God 42:00 From Learner to Sent One 44:00 Living Every Day on Assignment
