1 Corinthians 13:1 & 1 Corinthians 14:1-5 // Tongues is a Spirit-Empowered Form of Prayer // September 6th, 2026 // Bobby Gourley (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Speaking in tongues is one of the most misunderstood topics in the Christian faith, yet the Bible commands believers to earnestly desire spiritual gifts. There are two distinct forms of tongues described in Scripture: a public gift given to certain believers that requires interpretation, and a private spiritual language available to all believers for personal prayer and growth.

What would it look like to live for and from communion with the Father?Guest speaker Jeremy Robertson from Vertical Life Church takes us to Exodus 33 and the moment Moses refuses to move forward without the presence of God.

But their failures weren't the end of their stories.God's grace doesn't minimize our failures; it overcomes them. In this message, we'll discover what it means to fail forward, lear
Samson and Delilah // Judges 16:4-21 // Bobby Gourley (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The people closest to you will either strengthen your calling—or slowly pull you away from it.Samson's downfall didn't begin with a battle. It began with a relationship. In Judges 16, we see how one compromised relationship led one of Israel's strongest men to trade his God-given purpose for temporary pleasure. This message explores how to recognize the different kinds of people in your life, why seeking the approval of others can cost you your calling, and how compromise rarely happens all at o
