Liberty, Justice, and Love for All
4 oktober 2020 · 34 min
In this first message of our “Flags” series, Pastor J.D. shows us that the hope of the gospel unites the most unlikely of people from all tribes, tongues, nations ... and even political parties. As members of Christ's eternal kingdom, we can declare that even in moments of great division, Jesus retains the power to heal, restore, and offer an eternal hope. Lees meer

Row The Boat: The Dawning of a New Day
27 september 2020 · 38 min
In this message on 1 Samuel 14, Pastor Jason encourages us to take the posture of Jonathan. A prince in the nation of Israel, Jonathan didn’t lean on his power, position, or potential. He leaned on the promises of God, even when—especially when—the road ahead was unknown. Through Jonathan, we’ll learn that in the economy of the Kingdom of God, an investment in personal strength is an investment in a crashing market. Lees meer

We Send Every Member
20 september 2020 · 46 min
In this message on Acts 7–8, Pastor J.D. teaches on The Summit Church’s fourth core value: “We send every member.” Because Jesus sent his Spirit to us, the question is no longer if we are called to join in his mission. It’s only a matter of where and how. Living “sent” isn’t a special calling for our church planters and missionaries. It’s a calling for you. Lees meer

We Make Disciples, Not Just Converts
13 september 2020 · 29 min
In this message on Matthew 28, Pastor J.D. teaches on The Summit Church’s third core value: “We make disciples, not just converts.” Most churches celebrate how many people attend services or “make decisions” or get baptized. But our central commission, as a church, is much simpler—and much harder: We are called to make disciples. Lees meer

God's Welfare Plan
6 september 2020 · 31 min
In this message on Jeremiah 29, Pastor Bryan shows us a counter-cultural truth: When we live for our own agenda, we don’t find fulfillment, but emptiness. However, when we put our agenda aside and live for God’s agenda, we catch the side effect of fulfillment along the way. And what is that agenda? “Seek the welfare of the city.” Lees meer

We Do Whatever It Takes to Reach All People
30 augustus 2020 · 41 min
In this message on 1 Corinthians 9, Pastor J.D. explains one of the core four values of The Summit Church, “We do whatever it takes to reach all people.” Believers aren’t meant to be stagnant ponds—receiving, receiving, receiving. We’re meant to be rivers where gospel water flows through us to others. So we get comfortable being uncomfortable, knowing that Jesus wants people from every tribe, every tongue, and every background to be welcomed into his family. Lees meer

We Prioritize the Gospel Above All
23 augustus 2020 · 31 min
In this message on 1 Corinthians 15, Pastor J.D. begins a deep dive into the mission and values of The Summit Church with Value #1, “We prioritize the gospel above all.” The gospel alone transforms us, empowers us, unites us, propels us. This is why the Apostle Paul puts the gospel in a special class all by itself—because a church without the gospel at the center is a church without power. Lees meer

Together We Overcome
9 augustus 2020 · 27 min
This may be the most encouraging message you didn’t want to hear. In this final message on 1 Peter, Pastor J.D. shows how Christians can survive in a hostile, cruel, and chaotic world. In fact, not only can we survive; we can thrive. But it’s not how we might expect. Following Peter’s example, we’ll see that the Christian life, while far better, is not necessarily easier. Lees meer

The Upside-Down Kingdom
12 juli 2020 · 38 min
The Beatitudes show us the upside-down nature of the kingdom of heaven which stands in stark contrast to the world. Jesus begins his Sermon on the Mount with the Beatitudes, and he starts with those who are poor in spirit—the humble. If we want to live a truly humble life, we have to fix our eyes on Jesus, having a mind consumed with him. We have to abide in Christ. Lees meer

A Conversation About Race
14 juni 2020 · 48 min
In light of some of the horrific acts of the past few weeks, many people in our church—especially people of color—are hurting. In this conversation between Pastor J.D. and some leaders of color at the Summit, we begin to process where we are and where we need to go. Lees meer
Honoring Christ in a moment like this means listening to those who hurt, lamenting with them, bearing their burdens, and walking forward with them. A racially reconciled church requires more than just sentiment. It requires the humility to listen to one another, the empathy to see situations from others’ perspective, and the commitment to pursue justice together, laboring for the dignity of others as fiercely as we would our own children.
