We often approach prayer thinking we have to convince God to respond, but the truth is that He is more willing than we realize. In this message, we look at how Scripture teaches us to lay hold of God’s willingness and align our prayers with His will. Through key passages like Mark 5, Philippians 4, and 1 John 5, we see that prayer is not about changing God’s heart but allowing Him to change ours. Whether you’re dealing with delay, discouragement, or doubt, this message will encourage you to keep praying, keep believing, and trust that God’s “yes” is filled with purpose and rooted in His love.

A Selfless Church | Brent Hatchett
In part three of our series “Becoming His Church,” we explore what it means to be a selfless church. The early church in Acts gives us a blueprint for how to steward a move of God through unity, boldness, generosity, and reverence. After praying for boldness, the Holy Spirit moved again in power, and the church responded with selfless love and radical community. This message walks through Acts 4:32 to 5:11, highlighting that a selfless church is unified in heart and mission, empowered by the Spirit, generous with one another, and deeply reverent before the Lord. We’ll look at how the Holy Spirit transforms hearts to say, “If I have it, we have it,” and why true generosity must be Spirit-led, not pressure driven. We’ll also learn from the sobering example of Ananias and Sapphira that honesty, accountability, and the fear of the Lord are essential in becoming the kind of church Jesus desires. If we’re going to be His church, we must be a selfless church.

A Church That's Bold | Brent Hatchett
In a culture that often pressures believers to stay silent, Acts 4 shows us what it means to be a church that stands with boldness. This message unpacks seven powerful marks of a bold church: one that stands for truth, is filled with the Holy Spirit, boldly preaches salvation through Christ alone, lives like Jesus, fears God more than man, lets the Lord fight their battles, and prays for even greater boldness. If you’re ready to be challenged, encouraged, and equipped to live out your faith with courage, this message is for you.

A Church That Lives To Give | Brent Hatchett

It’s a call to become a people who live to give whatever we have for the sake of others and the name of Jesus. Let’s step into the kind of church He’s calling us to be.
