The church in Thessalonica was barely out of diapers when Paul wrote to them — and they were already getting mobbed for ‘turning the world upside down.’ Funny how the Gospel always does that. Disrupts. Offends. Wrecks people’s comfort zones. They were newbies but they seemed to be rockin' it.
Meanwhile, we lose our religion if Chick-fil-A runs out of Avocado Ranch.
Paul told the Thessalonians: ‘This is the will of God, your sanctification.’ Translation: God cares about how you live. Holiness matters. Purity matters. Love matters. And let’s be honest — we don’t exactly nail that every day.
But here’s the good news: ‘He who calls you is faithful; He will surely do it.’ That’s the mic drop. Jesus finishes what we can’t.
So if you’ve ever wondered how to hold on to your faith when the world feels upside down — this one’s for you. Watch or listen now.

Angel just preached his last sermon at NewChurch before heading to seminary. Spoiler: he got engaged, he’s packing up the CRV for St. Louis, and he dropped some truth bombs along the way:
“If your yes to Jesus still leaves you living for yourself, you didn’t really say yes — you just said maybe.”
“Our yes to Jesus changes our lives, but His yes to us changes our eternity.”
“When I proposed to Sophie, she said yes — but only because I said yes first. That’s the Gospel. Jesus said yes to us before we ever said yes to Him.”
If you’ve ever struggled with commitment, fear, or wondering what your “yes” really means, you’ll want to watch this one.

You ever notice how people have really strong opinions about the Bible… without actually reading it? We scroll memes, share quotes ripped out of context, argue about “what Jesus would do” like it’s a group project, and then quietly hope nobody asks us where any of that’s actually written.
It’s like cramming for the final exam of life by… watching the movie trailer. You get the general vibe, but you miss the actual story—and then you’re shocked when the test is full of questions you’ve never even heard of.
Today we’re going to meet two groups of people who heard the same message about Jesus. One group grabbed pitchforks, the other grabbed their Bibles. And spoiler alert—the Bible-readers changed the world.
So yeah—this isn’t just about them. This is about us.

We want joy without pain. Peace without prayer. Resurrection without dying to ourselves. And somehow—we still think we’re following Jesus. Watch this week’s message covering the entire book of Philippians and let the irony hit you right in the Savior vibes.
