Pastor Greg shows us how Jesus taught that those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted (Luke 14:11, 18:14). Humility isn’t weakness—it’s Christlikeness. It’s choosing the low place, seeing others as valuable, and depending on God, not self.

We’re not called to feel humble—we’re called to live humbly:

• Serve others

• Let go of pride and self-promotion

• Submit to God and one another

• Recognize your need for grace

• Come before God regularly in repentance

True humility reflects the heart of Jesus. And in God’s timing—He lifts the humble up.

This weekend, Pastor Greg reminds us that true discipleship starts with abiding in Christ—staying connected to the Vine. In a culture that celebrates independence, Jesus calls us to something radically different: complete dependence on Him. In John 15, Jesus says, “Apart from Me, you can do nothing.” That’s not limitation—it’s freedom. Spiritual independence leads to separation, struggle, and ultimately, withering. But when we abide—when we trust, rest, and rely on Jesus—we bear fruit, grow in truth, and experience real liberty. Don’t buy the lie that strength comes from self-reliance. Strength comes from surrender. Dependence on Jesus is where true freedom begins. #NoIndependence #AbideInChrist #TrueFreedom #John15 #JesusIsTheVine #StayConnected #FruitfulLife #SpiritLed #DependenceIsFreedom

Pastor Greg will deliver a sermon today on what is arguably the most widely recognized parable: the Good Samaritan. Often, when this parable is encountered, a crucial dialogue and profound truth conveyed at its conclusion are overlooked. Jesus instructs us on the essence of being a 'good neighbor,' a truth that the world desperately needs to witness actively demonstrated by His disciples and followers. As followers of Christ, we are called to embody a radical love and selfless service, a call echoed in the timeless words of the Micah Mandate found in Micah 6:8? The Good Samaritan parable is a vivid illustration of this mandate in action, urging us to look beyond conventional boundaries and extend compassion to those in need, regardless of their background or our preconceived notions. It challenges us to move beyond passive understanding and actively engage in the lives of others, demonstrating the transformative power of God's love through our tangible actions.

Pastor Greg's Sunday morning teaching focuses on three parables of Jesus sharing a central theme: the anticipation of the Lord's return. These include the parable of the expectant and faithful steward found in Luke 12, and the well-known parable of the ten virgins recorded in Matthew 25. These three distinct narratives offer a wealth of insights for believers regarding the second coming of Christ. The sermon encourages self-reflection on one's preparedness for this pivotal event. Are individuals actively and attentively watching for the Lord's return? What blessings are promised to those who remain vigilant, and what are the potential consequences for those who are caught unaware or neglectful? The core message emphasizes the certainty of Jesus's return and the clear responsibility given to His followers to be watchful and ready. Each parable likely contains specific lessons about readiness, faithfulness in service, and the importance of maintaining a state of spiritual alertness. Further exploration of these passages promises a deeper understanding of Jesus's instructions and the implications for contemporary Christian living.
