Jesus Interprets the Scriptures (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The Sermon walks through Luke 24, where two heartbroken disciples on the road to Emmaus discover that Jesus meets us in our darkest moments and shows us His deepest truth. Pastor Phillip Bethancourt shows how these disciples were consumed, crushed, and confused when life didn't go as they expected, a struggle that mirrors the mental health crisis facing our community today. Yet Jesus meets their failures with a new focus, opening the Scriptures and revealing Himself as the master key to the whol
The Parable of the Prodigal Son (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The Sermon contrasts two ways of being spiritually lost—the younger son’s open rebellion and the older son’s self-righteous religion—through Jesus’ parable of the two lost sons in Luke 15. Phillip Bethancourt shows that while one child runs from the Father by breaking the rules and the other by keeping them to earn favor, both are rescued by a prodigal God whose extravagant grace runs to meet repentant sinners, restores them as sons and daughters, and invites families of prodigals to wait on the
Every Generation Reaching The Next Generation (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The Sermon calls believers to embrace their role as everyday missionaries from Luke 10, highlighting the urgency of God’s coming judgment, the sending of the 72, and the reality that the harvest is plentiful but workers are few. Listeners are challenged to pray earnestly for laborers, discover their role in God’s mission (staying, going, or joining church plants), and live with compassionate boldness toward those who are close to them but far from God.
3 Lies About Your Identity (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The Sermon from Luke 4 shows how Satan tempts Jesus to doubt His identity, pushing three lies: that we are slaves to our appetites, orphans who must earn love and success, and masters of our own destiny. Phillip answers each lie with a gospel truth that in Christ we are soldiers who trust God's provision, children of God with secure adoption, and servants who trust rather than test God because Jesus has already defeated the serpent through the cross and resurrection.
Take Up Your Cross (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The Sermon calls believers to a cross-shaped life from Mark 8:31–38, showing that we are saved by Jesus’ suffering and that a heart consumed by comfort, control, or worldly gain will ultimately be consumed by those very things. Phillip Bethancourt urges the church to deny themselves, take up their cross, and follow Jesus daily, teaching that we truly live by dying to self and gain by losing our lives for Christ and His gospel.
