Oct 11, 2026 Freedom in ChristGalatians 4:8-20; Galatians 6:11; 2 Corinthians 10:8-12; 1 Corinthians 9:19-23; Ephesians 5:15, 17A light switch that isn’t wired to anything never turns anything on, so why do we keep flipping it? Galatians 4:8-20 asks why we keep going back to what has never worked, when we have been known by God. Steve Grothoff Oct 4, 2026 Our Inheritance In ChristGalatians 3:26-4:7A judge acquits you and moves on to the next case. A father adopts you. Galatians 3:26-4:7 asks what it means to be an heir, and what is being held for us that will never perish, spoil, or fade. Steve Grothoff Sep 27, 2026 Living Sacrifice: What True Worship Looks LikeRomans 12:1-2What does true worship look like and how do we know when we’ve drifted into worship God never asked for? Steve walks through real biblical examples of both acceptable and unacceptable worship, showing that worship was never meant to be a Sunday-only event, but a whole-life response to who God is. Steve Grothoff Sep 21, 2026 Great Gain1 Timothy 6:6-7Steve looks at what Paul means by ‘godliness with contentment is great gain’ and asks whether we’re content where God has us: at home, at work and at church. A practical message on why circumstances can’t fix a discontented heart, what contentment looks like for a person and a church, and four ways to keep it. Steve Grothoff Sep 13, 2026 Covered in the Dust: Finding and Becoming a DiscipleMatthew 28:18-20Steve picks up where last week left off: you’ve found someone to disciple, now what? A practical look at what a disciple actually is, how to find someone to grow with, what discipleship looks like (explore, establish, equip, extend), and why the Great Commission is a command we can’t set aside. Steve Grothoff Sep 6, 2026 Faith, the Curse and the PromiseGalatians 3:7-14Steve walks through what the law was actually for, lays out the gospel in six verses (the Romans Road), and asks the real question that follows: now what? A practical look at discipleship, finding your Paul, being someone’s Timothy, and why sharing your testimony might be the easiest hard thing you do this week. Steve Grothoff Aug 30, 2026 FaithGalatians 3:1-14From Galatians 3:1-6, Steve unpacks why faith and not works is what saves us, why justification is instant while sanctification is a lifelong process, and what real freedom in Christ looks like. A practical look at telling the Holy Spirit’s conviction apart from the enemy’s condemnation, and what to do the moment you fail. Steve Grothoff Aug 23, 2026 Bold in ChristGalatians 2:6–21Paul confirms his gospel with the apostles in Jerusalem, then confronts Peter face-to-face in Antioch after Peter withdraws from Gentile believers under pressure. From Galatians 2:6–21: guard the gospel’s purity, share it in the way that’s uniquely yours, and hold onto the freedom Christ gives, a true believer never turns back. Steve Grothoff Aug 16, 2026 Freedom From and In Our PastGalations 1:11-24Paul was a well-educated persecutor of the church before Christ turned his life around completely, and God didn’t erase that past, He used it. Steve walks through Galatians 1:11-24 to show how our own histories, redeemed, become part of how God calls and equips us to reach people no one else can. Steve Grothoff Aug 9, 2026 There is Only One GospelGalations 1:6-10There’s only one gospel, Paul told the Galatian church that even an angel preaching a different one should be rejected, no matter how credible it sounds. Steve unpacks what that means for us, we must know the Word well enough to spot a counterfeit, and have the boldness to say so. Steve Grothoff Aug 2, 2026 Freedom in ChristGalations 1:1-5Steve opens a new series in Galatians, walking through Paul’s opening words and his defense of his own apostolic authority. Along the way, what it means to have real community in the faith, plus the historical background on Galatia itself. He closes with the heart of the gospel in verses 3-5, salvation by grace through faith, not works or credentials. Steve Grothoff Jul 26, 2026 Be Purposeful in Prayer1 John 5:14–15Steve opens a short series on prayer, rooted in 1 John 5:14-15: if we ask anything according to God’s will, He hears us. The message centers on three points about what makes prayer truly purposeful. Listen in to hear all three and how they can shape your own prayer life. Steve Grothoff Jul 19, 2026 Daniel’s PrayerDaniel 9Daniel does the math on a 70 year old prophecy and realizes the exile is nearly over. His response is not celebration. It is confession, fasting, and prayer. Steve unpacks why Daniel’s most urgent prayer barely asks God for anything at all. Steve Grothoff Jul 12, 2026 When Kingdoms Fall, God Still StandsDaniel 8A king who called himself “God Manifest” outlawed the Sabbath, desecrated the temple, and tried to erase Jewish worship for good. A badly outnumbered resistance beat him anyway. Steve traces a 2,200 year old prophecy that named empires by name, and what it means for the pressure Christians face today.
