Hebrews 3:1-6

April 07, 2024 14:00 - 39 minutes

As holy siblings and citizens of heaven, our calling is to fixate the attention of our hearts on Jesus as the one greater and more glorious than anyone else, including Moses. Such consideration of Jesus fuels trusting Him no matter the cost.

Easter

March 31, 2024 14:00 - 36 minutes

This Easter Sunday we remember the profound significance of why Jesus came to die and rise from the dead foreshadowed in the story of Lazarus. Namely, that Jesus’ death and resurrection overcame sin and death for those who trust in Him by faith. Our death, darkness, and bondage is defeated by Jesus’ life, light, and freedom. Hallelujah!

Good Friday

March 29, 2024 14:00 - 56 minutes

Why do we come back to the cross every year? We come to remember Jesus’ willing sacrifice that washed us clean with his blood, and to anticipate the empty tomb that changed everything.

Prayer of Examine

March 24, 2024 14:00 - 50 minutes

Journey with us into a special one-off message where we explore the spiritual discipline of prayer, utilizing a method that dates back through the ages. Utilizing the prayer of examine, we get the opportunity to press into understanding God’s presence in all of life as we review our days. This message explores the prayer of examine by using Psalm 139 as our basis.

Hebrews 2:14-17

March 17, 2024 14:00 - 37 minutes

As followers of Jesus, we have lifelong freedom because God, being just and merciful, took on human form and paid the debt we owed for our sins. The death of Christ has overcome the fear of death in every way, and now death serves to refine our faith and lead us to a heavenly glory this passing world cannot fathom.

Hebrews 2:10-13

March 10, 2024 14:00 - 49 minutes

During times where it is difficult to trust God with our pain, we can look to Jesus, our true older brother, who willfully took on the suffering of humanity to be the Messiah who would redeem us into the family of God.

We are extravagantly hospitable, We are fearlessly generous, We are daringly missional

March 03, 2024 14:00 - 44 minutes

We are on a collective mission as the body of Christ to be ambassadors of Jesus. Anyone we encounter should experience what it was like to encounter Him. Our last three values are vital to how we go about accomplishing this mission because they embody the identity of our King. Jesus is extravagantly hospitable, fearlessly generous, and daringly missional, so we will be too.

We follow Jesus, We are one, We are gospel-centered

February 25, 2024 14:00 - 37 minutes

As we pursue why we exist and where we’re going as Mosaic Church, it is helpful for us to consider our code of conduct – our values. Values are defining marks of our identity that lead to our activity. Our first three values are the following: We follow Jesus. We are one. We are gospel-centered. As those who are followers of Jesus, we are united in Jesus and view all of life through the lens of who Jesus is and what He accomplished for us.

Mission, Vision, & Values

February 18, 2024 14:00 - 37 minutes

To belong to King Jesus is to participate in His mission with Him. The mission of Jesus, through the church He is building, is to bring His kingdom and push back the gates of darkness until the territories of darkness are no more. As the commissioned church, it is necessary for us to gather up and brief ourselves on the vision and values through which we will accomplish our mission. “We” is a series for us as Mosaic Church to lay out our values; our identity and code of conduct by which we wi...

Hebrews 2:5-9

February 11, 2024 14:00 - 42 minutes

Jesus, the embodiment of true greatness, is worth our heart’s full attention because He is the suffering servant who condescended from glory to dwell among us and bear the death that we deserved for our sin. Having fully paid our debt with His blood, He is now risen and reigns over all things forever.

Hebrews 2:1-4

February 04, 2024 14:00 - 33 minutes

Followers of Jesus must pay much closer attention to the reliable word of Christ delivered to us through the apostles. Our good Father provides this loving warning to keep us from drifting into things most dangerous for our soul. We pay attention and keep from drifting by having the word of God richly dwell in us, gather regularly with community, and daily walk by the Spirit.

Hebrews 1:3b-14

January 28, 2024 14:00 - 39 minutes

Jesus is greater than all messengers before Him, including angels. In contrast to the angels, Jesus is the heir of David, God incarnate, and Messiah, who is to be worshipped by all creation. When we see Him for who He truly is, we turn from worshipping God’s created gifts to worshiping the infinitely greater one, the only one worthy, Jesus Christ.

Hebrews 1:2b-3a

January 21, 2024 14:00 - 36 minutes

Is it truly worth it to follow Jesus even in the dangers and heaviness of life? When we realize that Jesus is completely sufficient for us because of His supreme authority over everything, we have a solid foundation to remain faithful. As those who are always sustained in the safety of the God-man, Jesus Christ, through His authoritative Word, we will always have reason to look at Him and declare, “That’s my King!”

Hebrews 1:1-2a

January 14, 2024 14:00 - 38 minutes

An anonymous author with an incredible handle of the totality of Scripture and a direct relationship with Jesus’ first followers writes to Jewish Christians experiencing difficult persecution for their faith. The author begins to hold up Jesus as worthy of our perseverance because He is greater than the angels and Torah, Moses and the promised land, the priests and Melchizedek, the sacrifices, and the old covenant. Jesus is worth our all because He is greater than all!

Aslan is on the Move

January 07, 2024 14:00 - 48 minutes

Our God is on the move and this year as a church we’re going to intentionally join Him in His redemptive work in the world. We’ll do this by staying close to Him, offering Him our weakness, trusting that His Spirit will equip us through church leadership to be faithful witnesses of the power of the gospel. Our first step together is to simply come before God daily and say, “I’m here. What can I do?”

His Arrival and Our Response

December 24, 2023 14:00 - 41 minutes

In this final message of our advent series we celebrate the arrival of Jesus as we consider how God calls us to respond to His presence in our lives.

In the Unlikely

December 17, 2023 14:00 - 46 minutes

In this third week of Advent, we look at how God reveals Himself to be faithful and true by using even the most unlikely of people to lead to the eventual birth of Jesus.

In Human Weakness

December 10, 2023 14:00 - 44 minutes

In this second week of Advent, we discover the patriarchs of Jesus’ family line give us a window into a God who reveals Himself to be faithful and true, glorified even through human weakness.

When We Cannot See Him

December 03, 2023 14:00 - 30 minutes

In this first week of Advent, we look into the family story of Jesus, a genealogy that demonstrates a God who is faithful and true even when we cannot see Him or fully understand what he has been doing all along.

Jude 1:24-25

November 26, 2023 14:00 - 41 minutes

As Jude calls us to contend for the faith while extending mercy to false teachers, we must do so with our gaze fixed upon the One who is able! Our God is able to preserve us until the end and present us blameless before His glory with all joy. He is worthy of our contending, our everything because to Him belongs all glory, majesty, power, dominion, and authority forever!

Jude 1:20-23

November 19, 2023 14:00 - 49 minutes

Jude calls believers to posture themselves to continually experience the love of God through building themselves up in the faith, praying in the Spirit, and waiting for Jesus to return and make all things new. As we experience His love and mercy, we get to extend His mercy to all people, even those most opposed to the gospel.

Jude 1:17-19

November 12, 2023 14:00 - 33 minutes

Jude shifts from engaging with the false teachers who have crept into the church to now engage with the Lord’s beloved people. Believers are called to contend first and foremost by vigilantly guarding their hearts in the remembering of God’s word. We guard ourselves knowing that we battle in a spiritual war that has already been decisively won in the victory of the risen Christ!

Jude 1:14-16

November 05, 2023 14:00 - 38 minutes

Jude uses another culturally respected, extra-biblical source, 1 Enoch, to further remind his readers of the coming justice of the Lord toward the false teachers who have crept in. One of the main fruits of the false teacher’s lives is discontentment. As believers, if we’re not careful with who we allow to influence our lives, we can likewise be tempted toward discontentment that breeds destruction. We can grow in contentment as we allow the Word of God to be our primary influence through bib...

Jude 1:8-13

October 29, 2023 14:00 - 51 minutes

False teaching has been around since the beginning of time as Jude brilliantly shows with multiple Old Testament references. With them, we are reminded that when God and His Word are not the ultimate authority the inevitable end is utter destruction and gloom. No false gospel has a chance when believers have clarity of the true gospel. Abiding with the Holy Spirit regularly as we study Scripture in the context of community enables us to bring and release the real lion who needs no defense.

Participating in our Rabbi’s Global Mission

October 22, 2023 14:00 - 26 minutes

In this message, Cru missionary, Lindley O’Brien, shares about God’s heart for the nations and our calling to participate with our Rabbi in bringing His good news to the world!

Jude 1:5-7

October 15, 2023 14:00 - 40 minutes

As Jude uses Old Testament realities to remind the church of the inevitable end of false teaching, whether bondage or wrath, he exposes how these teachers crept in. Forgetfulness of the gospel provides a way for false teaching to creep into our midst. In the end, it is better to pay the price of remembering than to pay the price of forgetting.

Jude 1:3-4

October 08, 2023 14:00 - 39 minutes

Jude calls us to contend for the faith delivered to believers because false teaching so easily creeps into the church unnoticed. This teaching spreads ungodliness and a denial of the authority of King Jesus. And yet, while Jude’s audience has failed in guarding the gospel, he contends for their faith by reminding them of their true identity. We need to know who we are in the gospel as we contend for it.

Jude 1:1-2

October 01, 2023 14:00 - 42 minutes

Jude greets his audience as mutual recipients of the grace of God. Jude, Jesus’ own half brother, formerly rejected Jesus. But now, by God’s grace, acknowledges Jesus as his Lord and King! Likewise, his audience having failed in contending for the gospel, are addressed by their identity in the gospel: called, beloved, and kept. Jude desires that everything he writes, though corrective, would work to multiply mercy, peace, and love among them.

My Participation

September 24, 2023 14:00 - 52 minutes

Not only do we get to be recipients and participants in the gospel, but we also we get to be partakers of the fruit and joy of the gospel! This participating and partaking is showing up amidst the local gathering of the church, serving with our gifts, sharing our resources, living on mission as we scatter, and praying for one another. When we participate in such ways, we make up the local expression of Jesus’ church, which then makes up the cosmic expression of Jesus’ church.

Our Part

September 17, 2023 14:00 - 51 minutes

All of us who are recipients of the gospel are called to participate in the gospel with our presence, time, gifting, and resources. When we participate in the local expression of Jesus’ church, we get to be a part of something extraordinary. What will be your part in God’s unfolding story through his church in the world?

His Plan

September 10, 2023 14:00 - 38 minutes

What is God’s plan for His church in the world? According to His word, the Church is to be a force that shoves back the gates of hell, a sermon that declares the wisdom of God to the cosmos, a family that relates to one another as brothers and sisters, a temple that represents God’s tangible presence, and a bride that loves and is loved deeply by God. We live out these various facets in our gathering and scattering as we seek to demonstrate and declare the gospel together.

Titus 3:9-15

September 03, 2023 14:00 - 51 minutes

As Paul concludes his letter to Titus, we are reminded that the same God who caused unity and flourishing in the creation of the world is the same God who provides unity and flourishing in the Church today. In avoiding what sows disunity, we kneel together at the cross, embracing things that cultivate a kind unity that is from Jesus and for Jesus.

Titus 3:1-8

August 27, 2023 14:00 - 37 minutes

The world should experience us as we experience Jesus! Jesus extends goodness to all, even His enemies. He saves those that don’t deserve saving. As recipients of his loving kindness, we are to be gentle, courteous and devoted to good works as we live out our heavenly citizenship.

Titus 2:11-15

August 20, 2023 14:00 - 41 minutes

Grace has appeared in Jesus! Through Him alone are we saved and being trained in God’s life-giving ways. As those who belong to His Kingdom of life, we are called to exhort one another away from death toward the comfort of life with God.

Titus 2:1-10

August 13, 2023 14:00 - 36 minutes

As those who know and are delighted in by the God who does not lie, we can live lives that are a fitting adornment to the gospel. Even within our contextual limitations, whether older men or women, or younger men or women, we are provided the opportunity to point to God right where we are.

Titus 1:5-16

August 06, 2023 14:00 - 45 minutes

Paul reminds us that God has always intended Jesus’ church to be led—not by one leader—but by a plurality of them. Not only are the leaders to be plural, but godly and worth following. They must have character that stands both the test of time and the watchful eye of the entire church body. Ultimately, God’s desire is for godly leadership within the local church to be influenced by God’s character rather than the world’s culture.

Titus 1:1-4

July 30, 2023 14:00 - 44 minutes

Paul writes to his long-time disciple Titus in order to preserve the church in the strategic but rebellious island of Crete. Our trustworthy God, unlike the lying, false gods of Crete, will be made known when the church grows in the faith and knowledge of the truth that leads to godliness and hope. All of this is only possible as we are filled with the grace and peace of the gospel that overflows into a lost and broken world.

Sharing a Story

July 23, 2023 14:00 - 46 minutes

The Gospel is the story meant to completely transform our story. In this message, we look at how we take the Gospel into the world around us to see God’s Kingdom come through us into the world He loves.

Being a Blessing

July 16, 2023 14:00 - 38 minutes

In this message, we look at the incredible invitation we hold in participating in bringing the Kingdom of God into our world in the everyday realities of life, at WDW and beyond.

2 Peter 3:11-18

July 09, 2023 14:00 - 53 minutes

Is this world as good as it gets or can we have hope for more? In this concluding message in 2 Peter, we explore final Peter’s desire, for the church to set their hope on a future that will radically alter the here and now.

2 Peter 3:1-10

July 02, 2023 14:00 - 50 minutes

Peter reminds the church that false teachers were predicted to come and mock the coming justice of Jesus in the last days. These teachers assume that Jesus’ delayed return means no return, and therefore, they live after their sinful desires. However, they fail to realize that the Lord’s delay is actually the Lord’s patience that all should turn from sin, escaping the coming justice. As recipients of God’s patience, we can participate in His patience toward all people, even our enemies.

2 Peter 2:17-22

June 25, 2023 14:00 - 51 minutes

False teaching, in Peter’s day and our own, would have us believe that true freedom is life without any restraint, following our desires as our highest authority. However, this kind of freedom is an enslaving illusion that leads to death. If we do not overcome our sin by the Spirit, it will overcome us. True freedom is the ability to choose the good that leads to life and freedom in Christ.

2 Peter 2:10-16

June 18, 2023 14:00 - 50 minutes

Peter is lovingly serious about us experiencing life in the truth of the Gospel among the community of God’s people. Because of this desire, He is likewise serious about us not becoming blind and arrogant toward the deadliness of sin, along with false teachers in the church. We, therefore, must be a people of gospel truth, able to discern false gospels that take sin lightly and miss grace completely.

2 Peter 2:6-10

June 11, 2023 14:00 - 31 minutes

In Peter’s final Old Testament illustration of God’s sparing “righteous” Lot in bringing justice upon Sodom and Gomorrah, we find that God’s sparing anyone from judgment is based purely on His mercy. Lot’s righteousness, like our own, still find’s itself in need of grace. Through the lens of the Gospel, we see that Lot’s story points to Jesus, the true righteous One, who would be destroyed for the sake of the unrighteous. God is able to save from judgment those of us who, though unrighteous a...

2 Peter 2:5

June 04, 2023 14:00 - 45 minutes

Our God reminds us through Peter that His constant presence relentlessly holds the cosmos and all of humanity together. The life of Noah was but a foreshadowing of God fulfilling His plan to preserve humanity through the only righteous one, Jesus. Choosing to live in our own way apart from Him always leads to death, darkness and destruction but His way is life, light and freedom, and we should desire that now and into eternity.

Pentecost

May 28, 2023 14:00 - 21 minutes

Our God is spreading the glory of His presence, our true Home, to the ends of the earth through His people, the Church, as they are empowered by the Holy Spirit. God invites all of His children, followers of Jesus, to joyfully, dependently, and actively join Him in His work of reaching the nations.

2 Peter 2:4

May 21, 2023 14:00 - 45 minutes

The historical reminder of the justice God did not withhold toward the demonic angels when they rebelled against Him reveals that our God is able to keep His people safe as He will one day execute justice to protect His faithfulness, promises, and people.

2 Peter 2:1-3

May 14, 2023 14:00 - 44 minutes

Not all prophecy is God’s prophecy. In contrast with the reliable truth of Scripture revealed by God, false teachers will rise up with intentions of deception and manipulation among God’s people. Although God is patient with such teachers, there is coming a day when justice will prevail in their final destruction. In the meantime, by God’s grace, we have the truth of Scripture in order to discern false teaching, both around us and within us.

2 Peter 1:16-21

May 07, 2023 14:00 - 43 minutes

Believers today often long to have been with Jesus and to have seen what the first disciples saw. However, Peter actually tells us that what strengthens our faith is not ultimately what we see, but the word revealed by God through man as they were carried along by the Spirit! Let us then be diligent to “pay attention” to the lamp of God’s word until Jesus comes again to bring grace and justice to the earth!

2 Peter 1:12-15

April 30, 2023 14:00 - 42 minutes

The common view of our culture is that the old is useless and the new is better. Yet, Peter is encouraging believers to be regularly reminded of the ‘Old Truths’ that our faith has been founded on. Why? Because we are prone to forget what we know! Therefore, as we gather together, let us learn to be intentional and consistent in our efforts to remind one another of the grace that stirs us up to love and good works.
