The Dangerous Disconnect

How To Get Over Yourself

Everyone wants wisdom… but few people realize how it actually enters our lives. In this message, Pastor Patrick Tanton explores one of the most overlooked foundations of a wise life: humility. Scripture repeatedly warns that pride leads to destruction, while humility positions us to receive wisdom, grace, and life from God. But humility isn’t just thinking poorly of yourself, it’s learning to see God, yourself, and others the way He does. If you want to experience God’s wisdom, God’s direction, and God’s blessing in your life, it begins with a simple but powerful step: humbling yourself before Him. For some, this message is a reminder to surrender areas of life you've been holding onto. For others, this may be the moment to begin a relationship with God for the first time through Jesus. Either way, humility is the doorway that opens the abundant life God has for you.

You Can't Follow Both

Every day, two voices are calling. One is loud, seductive, and looks appealing on the outside. The other is steady, solid, and leads to life. In this powerful message from Proverbs 9, Pastor Josh Starnes explores the contrast between Wisdom and Folly — two invitations, two banquets, two paths. And the difference between them isn’t obvious at first glance. The world’s voice may be louder. The wide path may look easier. But only one invitation leads to life. If you’re tired of going back and forth… If you feel spiritually divided… If you’re unsure which voice to trust… This message will help you discern the difference — and choose the banquet that brings life.

Why You Keep Making the Same Mistakes

We all have looked back at a failed relationship, a financial mess, or a career mistake and asked the same question: "What was I thinking?" or "How did I get here?".
