Jesus did not come to be served. He came to serve -- and to give His life as a ransom for many. That one truth from Mark 10:45 changes everything about how we understand our own purpose.

While His disciples were still chasing thrones and recognition, Jesus was walking willingly toward the cross. He knew exactly what He came to do, and nothing could stop Him. That is not the death of a man caught by surprise -- that is the greatest act of love the world has ever seen.

When you truly understand what He gave up for you, you stop needing to prove yourself. You stop chasing recognition. You are free. And free people serve.

Join us as we continue our journey through the book of Mark and discover what it means to live, serve, and die like Jesus.

What if the greatest threat to your faith isn't suffering—but success?

In Mark 10:17–27, Jesus encounters a wealthy, moral, deeply religious young man who seems to have everything. Yet beneath his respectable life is an idol he cannot see. This passage isn't simply about money; it's about the subtle ways good things become ultimate things.

In this sermon, we'll explore why self-deception is so dangerous, how wealth and comfort can quietly replace our dependence on God, and why only Jesus can free us from the false gods that promise life but leave us empty. We'll also consider what the shifting center of global Christianity reveals about the danger of comfortable religion and the power of a cross-shaped faith.

The question isn't whether you have money. The question is: What has your heart?

In this sermon, Pastor Logan Merrick unpacks Matthew 6, the Lord's Prayer. In it Pastor Logan shows us that Jesus wasn't giving us a prayer to recite but a model of prayer on how to approach the Father.
