Pastor JC preaches on Mark 15
When we die, someone will give a eulogy at our funeral service. When Jesus died, imagine the eulogies that His followers would have given. Imagine the eulogies the people Jesus healed would give. What does the eulogy we would give Jesus say?
Pastor JC preaches on Luke 19:28-40
During the triumphal entry, Jesus's disciples shouted praises to God for His mighty works while the Pharisees tried to silence them. There are many people that try to silence our praise. Jesus tells us that if people fail to praise Him, even the rocks will cry out. Is God good? Absolutely. Just look at all He has done for us. Time and time again, He has shown His faithfulness. He provides for us, heals us, comforts us, and never leaves us. But the question remains—are we truly praising Him and honoring Him for all He has done?
Pastor JC preaches on John 17:20-26
Jesus prays for us! He was preparing to die for our sins and, instead of forgetting those He came to save and worrying about Himself, He prays that we stay strong in Him and share His love with all the world. Jesus intercedes for us daily! Even now, seated at the right hand of God, He continues to act as our advocate, lifting us up in prayer and standing in the gap on our behalf. His love for us is unending, and His prayers remind us that we are never alone in our struggles. Whatever trials we face, we can take comfort in knowing that the King of Kings is petitioning for our strength, guidance, and eternal joy.
Pastor JC preaches on John 17:6-19
Jesus prays for His disciples. This scripture highlights the vital role of prayer, especially during challenging times, as Jesus prayed knowing His arrest was imminent. Additionally, this passage offers a profound insight into the unity and mission of believers. Jesus not only prayed for His disciples but also emphasized their purpose in the world—to live set apart yet actively engage in spreading truth and love. This reminds us of our calling to reflect His grace and light in every aspect of our lives.
Pastor JC preaches on Matthew 6:16-24
No one can serve two masters; we must choose whom we will serve—God or ourselvesIf we desire God to be the guiding Master of our lives, we must continually seek growth in Him and align ourselves with His divine will.Fasting offers a powerful opportunity to draw closer to God. While it’s not always easy to set aside food amidst the demands of daily life, we should remember that fasting isn’t about our comfort. It’s about relying on God, seeking His presence, and opening our hearts to hear His voice more clearly.
Pastor JC preaches on Jeremiah 17:1-13
Pastor JC preaches on Romans 5:12-21
Pastor JC preaches on the "Super Stat." By one man, Adam, death came into the world. By another man, Jesus Christ, all have been forgiven. Because of Adam, we were all born into a life of sin. Genesis 3:3 tells us that the punishment for that sin is death. If we choose our own way, if we choose to live apart from God, we will die. However, because of the sacrifice Jesus made when He died on the cross, we have another choice. Jesus paid the price for our sins and as long as we believe in Him, our debt is paid and we are forgiven.
Pastor JC preaches on Luke 10:25-37
Is it always easy to treat others the way we’d want to be treated? Let’s be honest—no, it’s not. At times, it can feel incredibly difficult. However, when we choose to step out of our comfort zones to help someone in need, we create a powerful moment to share God’s love with others—especially with those who may never have encountered Jesus otherwise. We can’t assume someone else will step in, because that person might never have another chance to hear about Jesus. It’s not about going to church, reading the Bible, or participating in service projects—while these are important, they cannot save us. Only true faith in Jesus can. And just as we’ve experienced His grace, everyone deserves the chance to hear about Him too. If we truly believe in Jesus, our faith should shape the way we live—every single day.
Pastor JC preaches on Luke 2:41-52
Why are we here? If our purpose is anything other than to know God more deeply and to share His love with the world, we are missing the mark. Even as a child, Jesus understood His mission: to spread the Word of God to all who would listen. He knew He belonged in His Father's House, learning about God and teaching others about Him. As Christians, we are called to live our lives in alignment with God's will. In the midst of our daily routines, we should pause and reflect, asking ourselves, "Why am I here?" More importantly, we must seek God's guidance, ask Him to reveal His plan for us, and faithfully follow the path He sets before us.
Pastor JC preaches on Matthew 2:1-12
The wise men embarked on their journey with a single purpose: to discover who Jesus truly is. The gifts they presented symbolized His identity and the mission He came to fulfill. As we reflect on their journey, we are reminded of the profound truth that Jesus is the greatest gift anyone can receive. By worshiping Him, we acknowledge Him as the King of Kings and the Savior who paid the ultimate price for us through His resurrection.
Pastor JC preaches on Revelation 3:14-22
As part of their training, first responders are taught what to do when someone's heart has stopped. They begin CPR (Cardio-Pulmonary Resuscitation) in hopes of getting the patient's heart to start again. This process can be challenging as the responders need to make sure they are doing the chest compressions and rescue breaths at the right timing and depth to save the person.
But what do we do when the church is dying? What do we do when the church has become lukewarm? As Christians, we need CPR. Discover the meaning of Christian CPR and how it can revitalize and strengthen the church.

As Palm Sunday approaches, we reflect on Jesus’s triumphal entry into Jerusalem—a moment filled with joyful shouts of "Hosanna!" and heartfelt worship. This event marked His first triumphal entry, but it also reminds us of a greater promise: Jesus will return one day, and His next entry will be as the eternal King.
Pastor JC preaches on Galatians 2:20
Jesus paid it all. When He died on the cross, He took our sins upon Himself—not just temporarily, but forever. He carried them to the grave and left them behind when He rose again three days later. No matter who we were or what we had done before coming to Christ, His sacrifice wiped it all away. The penalty for our sins was death, but Jesus paid that price in full on our behalf. The debt is completely and eternally forgiven.
