In this message, Student Pastor, Connor Alliston continues the series “Lies: Common Clichés Christians Believe” by addressing the phrase “God Gained Another Angel.” Together, we’ll explore why this comforting but unbiblical idea has taken root and what Scripture actually teaches about angels and eternity. Discover the real hope believers have—not in becoming angels, but in the promise of being transformed into the likeness of Christ.

In this message, Pastor PJ Noland reminds us that generosity isn’t about what’s in our wallets—it’s about what’s in our minds and hearts. Using 2 Corinthians 8:1–2, he challenges the “I can’t afford to give” mindset and calls us to trust that God can do more with our 90% and His blessing than we can with 100% on our own. When we give, we reflect the very heart of God—because love gives.

In this message, Pastor PJ Noland reminds us that forgiveness isn’t about forgetting, excusing, or being a doormat—it’s about freedom. Holding on to bitterness only poisons the heart, but choosing to forgive reflects the heart of God.

“I choose forgiveness because my great God has chosen to forgive me.”

In this episode, we continue our Movement Ready Church series, focusing on two common myths that hinder churches from fully living out their mission with Jesus—the Equipping Myth and the Empowerment Myth. Looking at Matthew 28, Ephesians 4, and 1 Corinthians 12, we’re reminded that the church isn’t just called to fill roles or offer teaching—it’s called to equip and empower people to use their God-given gifts for Kingdom impact. We’ll unpack why training requires more than just teaching, and how true empowerment comes not from filling spots, but from activating the Spirit’s potential in each believer.

In this episode, Pastor PJ Noland shares his heart in response to recent events and points us to God’s Word for guidance. He unpacks what it means to live faithfully as Christians in an ever-changing world, reminding us of our calling and hope in Christ.

In part 3 of A MOVEMENT READY CHURCH titled, Expanding Our Impact Beyond Programming, we explore what it truly means to be a movement-ready church rooted in the Great Commission. Drawing from Matthew 28:19–20 and Acts 1:8, we unpack three essential elements—Spiritual Renewal, Disciple-Making Conviction, and Organizational Clarity—that shift ministry from programs to people. We’ll also confront the Execution Myth, the belief that church impact is defined by internal ministry alone, and discover how true transformation happens when believers carry the mission into their circles of influence. Tune in as we challenge assumptions, rethink our roles, and embrace the call to live on mission every day.

In this episode of Movement Ready Church: Activating A Disciple-Making Movement, we tackle two of the five fatal myths that stall disciple-making: the Engagement Myth and the Expertise Myth. These myths falsely equate activity with transformation and excellent execution with excellent ministry. Rooted in Matthew 28:19-20, we’re reminded that Jesus calls us to more than busyness—He calls us to intentional disciple-making. Discover how changing the scoreboard and redefining your role can shift your church from movement-resistant to movement-ready. Let’s break assumptions and build a church that truly knows God and makes Him known.

In this foundational episode of a four part message series, we explore the essential elements that make a church movement ready by diving into key moments from Matthew 28 and Acts 1–2. Drawing from Jesus’ ministry and the birth of the early Church, we unpack the vital need for spiritual renewal, disciple-making conviction, and organizational clarity. Discover how these three components sustain, shape, and spread a movement—and what happens when even one is missing. This is a call to realignment, empowerment, and Gospel-centered purpose for today’s church.
