Come to Jesus Moment :: What Matters Most in Life

New Hope Bend ·

2026/01/13

What really matters in life—and what happens when money takes the lead? In Luke 12, Jesus confronts greed head-on through a startling encounter and a powerful parable that exposes the danger of storing up earthly wealth while neglecting a rich relationship with God. In a culture driven by spending, saving, and striving for more, Jesus reminds us that life is not measured by what we own. This message challenges us to examine where our trust, priorities, and treasure truly lie, especially after the

Come To Jesus Moment :: A Daily Decision

New Hope Bend ·

2026/01/11

What does it really mean to become your best self in a new year? In this message, “A Daily Decision… A Come to Jesus Moment,” we look at Psalm 1 and Jesus’ words in Matthew 7 to discover that lasting change doesn’t come from self-help strategies, resolutions, or motivation alone—it comes from daily time with Jesus. As we choose what influences shape us and delight in God’s Word, our lives become rooted, resilient, and fruitful, like a tree planted by streams of water. This sermon invites us to build

Come To Jesus Moment :: Moments With The Master

New Hope Bend ·

2026/01/10

In this message Moments with the Master from Mark 1:40–45, we explore the unforgettable encounter between Jesus and a man suffering from leprosy—a moment that reveals Jesus as a compassionate rebel who refused to bow to rules that wounded rather than healed. As we walk through the history, stigma, and emotional devastation surrounding leprosy, we see the depth of isolation this man endured and the radical love Jesus demonstrated in touching, healing, and restoring him. This story invites us to

Come To Jesus Moment :: Seeds of Greatness

New Hope Bend ·

2026/01/09

Come to Jesus Moment • Seeds of Greatness — In a world driven by status and achievement, Jesus offers a radically different vision of greatness rooted in humility, service, and a transformed heart. In this message, Pastor Steve takes us back to the Upper Room where the disciples argued about who was greatest, even as Jesus prepared to give His life. Through His shocking act of washing their feet and through the surprising, imperfect people in His genealogy—Abraham, David, Tamar, Rahab, Manasseh,

Come to Jesus Moment :: Called To Follow

New Hope Bend ·

2026/01/08

In “Called to Follow,” we look closely at Luke 5:1–11 and the powerful moment when Jesus called Peter to leave everything and follow Him. Pastor Steve shares his own come-to-Jesus story and how an unexpected encounter changed the direction of his life. Through Peter’s journey—from the miraculous catch, to his fears and failures, to his restoration in John 21—we see how Jesus meets us with grace and invites us into a deeper, wholehearted commitment. This message challenges each of us to consider what

Behold The Light :: Shepherds The Common Ones

New Hope Bend ·

2025/12/23

Silent Night wasn’t nearly as quiet as we imagine. On the night Jesus was born, ordinary shepherds were doing what they always did—working, watching, and tending their sheep—when heaven broke into their normal routine. In Luke 2:8–20, God chose common, hardworking people to be the very first witnesses of the Savior’s birth, revealing that His good news is for everyone. As angels filled the sky with glory and proclamation, fear turned into faith, and ordinary men became bold messengers. The shepherds

Behold The Light :: Mary and Joseph The Willing Ones

New Hope Bend ·

2025/12/19

In this Advent message from Pastor Steve we look closely at the often-overlooked human story behind the birth of Jesus by exploring the willingness of Mary and Joseph. Through Matthew 1:18–25 and Luke 2:1–7, we see two ordinary people facing extraordinary circumstances—unexpected pregnancy, public misunderstanding, physical hardship, and profound uncertainty—yet choosing obedience at great personal cost. Mary’s humble surrender, “May your word to me be fulfilled,” and Joseph’s quiet, faithful

Behold The Light :: Mary The Favored One

New Hope Bend ·

2025/12/17

In this message from Pastor Steve, we look at the moment when the angel Gabriel breaks hundreds of years of silence to visit a young woman in Nazareth—a humble, ordinary girl named Mary who is greeted as “highly favored.” Together we explore Luke 1:26–56 and the wonder of God choosing Mary to carry Jesus, the Son of the Most High, whose name means “The Lord Saves.” Through Mary’s fear, questions, courage, and surrender, we see how God enters the lives of those who are willing to say, “I am the

A Theology of Workology :: our Job Is Your Mission Field

New Hope Bend ·

2025/10/28

Your workplace is not just where you earn a living—it’s where you can live out your witness. When you shine Christ’s light at work, people see His glory in your everyday faithfulness.

A Theology of Workology :: Working For The Lord Not...

New Hope Bend ·

2025/10/25

Pastor Connor delivers a message from Colossians 3:23-24. Work becomes worship when we see our true Boss isn’t human—it’s Christ Himself. This week, we’ll explore how to serve God in everything we do with integrity, excellence, and passion.

A Theology of Workology :: Designed to Work, Not...

New Hope Bend ·

2025/10/24

Pastor Brandon kicks off a new series. Work was part of God’s perfect design before sin entered the world. But work was never meant to be our master. God calls us to enjoy the dignity of work without letting it define our worth.

What People Say About You

New Hope Bend ·

2025/10/13

What kind of legacy will your life leave? John ends with a reminder that faithfulness today shapes someone else’s tomorrow. Our presence, peace, and consistency ripple across generations. A faithful life, even in the small things, builds a foundation that outlasts us.

Faithfulness in the Face of Opposition

New Hope Bend ·

2025/10/10

What does true greatness look like? In a world that measures success by fame, power, or influence, Scripture reminds us that greatness is found in faithfulness. In 3 John, we see a powerful contrast between Gaius, who quietly and humbly serves God and others, and Diotrephes, whose pride and opposition disrupt the church. This week, we’re talking about what it means to walk faithfully in God’s truth, even when no one is watching, and how small acts of service can have an eternal impact. Join us as we

When Love Has to Say “No”

New Hope Bend ·

2025/10/07

In 2 & 3 John, we see that real love doesn’t always mean open doors—it sometimes means setting boundaries. John writes with a heart of love, warning the church about deception and urging them to guard their understanding of Jesus. Love without boundaries isn’t compassion; it’s compromise. True growth is not moving beyond Jesus but going deeper into Him, and joy is preserved when we hold fast to Christ together. In this message, we explore how to spot counterfeit love, draw wise boundaries, and

2-3 John :: Truth and Love: Never One Without the Other

New Hope Bend ·

2025/09/18

When it comes to following Jesus, truth and love cannot be separated. Too often, we lean one way—either holding tightly to truth without love, which makes us harsh and self-righteous, or clinging to love without truth, which makes us sentimental and spineless. But the Apostle John reminds us that real discipleship means walking in both. Truth defines who we are; love is the way we live out truth. Like two wings of an airplane, both are essential—without one, we crash. In this message from 2 John,

Three Kings :: Who Are You Becoming?

New Hope Bend ·

2025/09/15

What kind of legacy are you leaving behind? This week we close our Three Kings series by asking a powerful question: Who am I becoming? Through the lives of Saul, David, and Solomon, we’ve seen how power, pleasure, and possessions can either build or break a leader’s life. But God’s blueprint for faithfulness in Deuteronomy 17:14–20 reminds us that legacy isn’t built in a day—it’s built daily.

Three Kings :: When Success Becomes a Trap

New Hope Bend ·

2025/09/05

What happens when you get everything you wanted—but it still isn’t enough? Solomon had wealth, wisdom, power, and peace. His reign marked the golden age of Israel, yet by the end of his life his soul was bankrupt. This sermon from 1 Kings 8–11 explores how success can make you comfortable, prideful, and eventually lead to spiritual drift if you stop depending on God. The blessings of God can quickly become barriers to God if we confuse our brilliance with His blessing. Comfort can replace prayer

39:23

Three Kings :: The One Thing You Should Always Ask For

New Hope Bend ·

2025/08/21

When life presses in with endless needs—security, success, relationships, health—we often chase quick fixes without ever asking the deeper question: What do I really need? In this message from 1 Kings 3, we look at Solomon’s defining moment when God asked him, “Ask what I shall give you.” Instead of wealth, power, or long life, Solomon asked for wisdom—a discerning heart to lead God’s people well. Real wisdom begins with humble dependence on God, grows when we admit our weakness, and leads to

Three Kings :: You’re Building Your Legacy Today

New Hope Bend ·

2025/08/15

When time is short, words become focused—and David’s final public words are no exception. As a battle-worn king, humbled by grace, he points us to the foundation of a godly legacy: anchoring your life in God’s faithfulness, living with courage rooted in God’s Word, and recognizing that your faithfulness now shapes future generations. In 2 Samuel 23:1–5 and 1 Kings 2:1–4, David’s charge to Solomon is not about political power, but about walking faithfully before the Lord with all his heart and soul

Three Kings :: How Broken People Worship A Holy God

New Hope Bend ·

2025/08/14

Worship isn’t just for the strong—it’s for the broken. In this powerful message, we explore how David learned to worship God not from a place of perfection, but from fear, failure, and faith. Whether you feel overwhelmed like David in Psalm 3, ashamed like he was in Psalm 51, or unsure of the future like in Psalm 23, God invites you to bring your whole heart. David’s raw honesty in worship teaches us that we don’t need to perform—we just need to be present. Learn how to worship through your fear,
