From a Crowd to a Community - Nick Brennt - Monday Night, Monday Nights
Nick Brennt teaches on the power of commitment and the impact it can have when we fully follow Jesus. He challenges the idea that “big” automatically means impactful, explaining that real influence comes from deep commitment, not crowd size. Nick points out how easy it is to hide in the background and live a comfortable, complacent life—but that’s not what Jesus intended. He reminds us that it only took 12 committed disciples to change the world, and asks if we have the kind of faith that endures even when we’re alone, not just when we’re surrounded by others. Nick emphasizes the need for community and accountability, saying that sometimes the answers to our prayers come through the people around us. The message ends with a call to take the next step—especially by joining a small group and committing to the journey God is inviting you into.

Living Hope: The End of Endings - Nick Brennt - Monday Nights
Nick Brennt delivers a message on the life-changing hope we have because of the resurrection of Jesus. He explains that without hope, our hearts grow sick—which is why so many struggle with anxiety, apathy, depression, and dread. But the resurrection flips everything: death isn’t the end, it’s the beginning of eternal life with God. Nick emphasizes that Jesus’ victory over sin and death means we no longer have to live in fear or hopelessness. He challenges us to let this hope transform our lives, reminding us that real hope produces joy and is contagious to a hopeless world around us. The message ends with a call to take practical steps and grab hold of the hope we have in Jesus—not just hear it, but live it.

Are You Spirit-Filled or Self-Filled - Derek Mack - Monday Nights
Derek Mack teaches on Ephesians 5:3–21. He explains how this passage encourages believers to live lives filled and influenced by the Spirit of God above all else. We are called to walk in love, with a deep hunger for more of the Spirit—not settling for a shallow or surface-level understanding of God. Derek explains what Paul outlines in this Ephesians passage with three things that happen in the people’s life who are filled and dominated by the spirit: through worship, constant thanksgiving and praise in all circumstances, and lastly submit or be subject to one another in the fear of Christ. Ultimately, if we desire more of the Spirit, we simply need to ask and pray for it with sincere hearts.

Built To Love, Called To Grow - Nick Brennt - Monday Nights
Nick Brennt teaches out of Ephesians 4:1-16, simplifying what Paul is saying and reiterating that Ephesians is our invitation into a deeper love encounter with Jesus--one that will transform us, the Church, and society as a whole. Nick explains how Paul--and ultimately God--calls the Church to be unified and show their love for each other, and through that unity and love we can influence the world. This happens not only through our love but also through the spiritual gifts. Nick lists the spiritual gifts Paul is referencing, explains them, and asks us to reflect on which gifts we have; because everyone has them. By using our gifts, showing the world our love for God and each other, and speaking the Truth of the Gospel everywhere we go we can grow as leaders and reach the world with the message of Jesus. Nick ends the sermon by asking everyone to reflect on what areas of love God is asking them to grow in, and praying for God to help them in that area.
