Hebrews 4:14-16 extends an invitation to us, to come without fear or shame into the presence of God, not only despite, but in the midst of our shortcomings. Jesus himself is our Mercy Seat and meets us when we are vulnerable and exposed and provides us with mercy and grace. If you've ever wrestled with feelings of unworthiness or struggled with hidden sin, these verses offer life-changing grace.

Join us as Pastor Ryan unpacks the profound message of Hebrews 4:14-16, exploring what it means to approach God boldly through Jesus, our High Priest and be reminded that the same thing that saved us keeps is in right relationship with God.

Understanding the baptism of the Holy Spirit and the gift of tongues with biblical clarity can empower us in utilizing the gift of tongues to glorify God. Depending on someone's background or experiences, the baptism of the Holy Spirit and the gift of tongues sometimes is not experienced in its fullness in a believer's life.

Join us in Chapel Hill as Michael Pham invites us to dive into the Scriptures and live a fuller life by experiencing the benefit of these gifts.

In our walk with God, we encounter resistance on a daily basis from the world as it tries to pull you away from what the Lord has for us. Surviving in this fallen world requires persisting. Sometimes, we need a reminder about our blessings and about how important the presence of the Lord is in our lives.

Join us in Wilmington as Cory Meade continues his message from last week with an examination on how to persist with God after the blessing.

What kind of house we build for God is a question asked in the Book of Isaiah and again in the book of Acts. Particularly in this season, what kind of house we set our course upon to build for God is important. Christ being the cornerstone is central. As we demonstrate the heart of humble servant and gain more understanding of the commitment and love God has for humanity, we will see the beautiful Body of Christ rise up in our times and become all she was meant to be.

Join us in Chapel Hill as Pastor Becky Wicker chares more about the house God desires to build.

"Once Jesus was in a certain place praying. As he finished, one of his disciples came up to him and said, 'Lord, teach us to pray, just as John taught his disciples.'" (Luke 11:1 NLT). Prayer should be birthed out of relationship with the Father. In the gospels, you see Jesus demonstrating this and teaching his disciples as well.

Join us in Mooresville as pastor Marlin Mogusu expands on his message in Wilmington about the relational reality to our prayer lives.

Jacob famously wrestled with God, demanding a blessing from Him. In life, we can often experience moments of wrestling in the midst of moves of God, and it can feel like God is leaving us in the dust. As we reflect on an amazing year at Camp Morley, we look at Jacob and God struggling together, and what happens when we persist with God.

Join us in Wilmington for Camp Sunday as Camp Director Cory Meade shares testimonies from camp and his conclusions from God's movement.

In Mark 12:28-34, Jesus quoted the Shema, one of only two prayers specifically commanded in the Old Testament (Deuteronomy 6:4-9). The first word of the Shema is "Hear." In Hebrew, "Shema" means hearing, understanding, and obeying. When the prayer begins with "Hear, O Israel," it calls us to attentiveness and action. The Holy Spirit seeks those who, like Elijah, will bend to hear the gentle blowing: His still, small voice amid mane competing voices (1 Kings 19:11-12).

Join us in Mooresville as senior pastor Byron Wicker teaches us about the importance of hearing the voice of God.

While encounters with the Lord are transformative, and highly valuable, they won't sustain us by themselves. As seen in Hebrews 3:3-35, the Israelites hardened their hearts and turned away from the Lord on multiple occasions even after seeing miracles for over 40 years. The author of Hebrews leverages the Israelites' experience to remind us to not harden our hearts or fall into sin so that we can stay close to the Lord.

Join us in Wilmington as Senior Pastor Ryan Meade urges us to soften our hearts daily, seeking God's voice and grace to keep our hearts tender and responsive to the Lord.
