Message by Chris Brown on September 6, 2025. Have you ever wondered what it is that Jesus really expects of you? Perhaps you once said a prayer and put your trust in Him to forgive you and save you, but now what? Today, we get to hear from Jesus Himself about what He wants from us, and what He is going to do in return. <span class="hide-message">Video available on YouTube at https://youtu.be/9lT3y0BMOZ4 - Live Notes available at https://churchlinkfeeds.blob.core.windows.net/notes/38370/note-244244.html</span>

Message by Larry Osborne on August 30, 2025. What do a leper, a soldier, a mother-in-law, and a bunch of crazy people have in common? More than you might think. This week, we’ll find out what Matthew’s account of Jesus’ encounter with them can teach us about our assignment to represent him well. <span class="hide-message">Video available on YouTube at https://youtu.be/57u-Jf4AzE4 - Live Notes available at https://churchlinkfeeds.blob.core.windows.net/notes/38370/note-243695.html</span>

Message by Chris Brown on August 23, 2025. Are all good people going to Heaven, or is there something that a person needs to do to get in? Can someone really know for sure that they are going to a better place when they die? How much belief in Jesus does the Bible say that I must have to make it in? All of these questions and more will be answered in this message. <span class="hide-message">Video available on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/live/8HP9uB-oiFA - Live Notes available at https://churchlinkfeeds.blob.core.windows.net/notes/38370/note-243094.html</span>

Message by Chris Brown on August 16, 2025. If prayer is easy, then why is it so hard? Why does a good God not answer good prayers? Why does it feel like my prayers don’t go any higher than the ceiling at times? Is it something that I am doing wrong, or is it God’s fault? You get your answers to all of this and more in just this one message. <span class="hide-message">Video available on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/live/0kJ358uVWDE - Live Notes available at https://churchlinkfeeds.blob.core.windows.net/notes/38370/note-242398.html</span> <span class="hide-message">Video available on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/live/l7bg0xJdWog - Live Notes available at https://churchlinkfeeds.blob.core.windows.net/notes/38370/note-242398.html</span>

Message by Chris Brown on August 9, 2025. I’ve heard that the most widely known verse in the Bible is no longer John 3:16, but rather “Do not judge others.” But is that what the Bible really teaches? Aren’t there many other verses saying that we need to judge others, and didn’t Jesus do a lot of judging Himself? Today, we find an answer to those questions that can be either incredibly encouraging or incredibly discouraging, depending on what type of person you tend to be. <span class="hide-message">Video available on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/live/yCEWi9G8P58 - Live Notes available at https://churchlinkfeeds.blob.core.windows.net/notes/38370/note-241893.html</span>

Message by Arnold Camacho on August 2, 2025. Worry. Anxiety. Stress. Sound familiar? Maybe even reading those words stirs up feelings you’d rather ignore. But here’s the good news, Jesus knew we’d wrestle with these things, and instead of shaming us, He offered wisdom, hope, and a better way forward. He invites us to see worry for what it is and discover what can take its place. Be encouraged as we learn how to trade fear for freedom and step into the peace He promises. <span class="hide-message">Video available on YouTube at https://youtu.be/-yMRwLb-7fM - Live Notes available at https://churchlinkfeeds.blob.core.windows.net/notes/38370/note-241273.html</span>

Message by Larry Osborne on July 26, 2025. Jesus doesn’t say you can’t have both God and money—He says you can’t serve them both. This week, we'll learn how Matthew 6:19-24 helps us navigate the fork-in-the-road decisions we all face and figure out how to enjoy God’s blessings without letting them master us. <span class="hide-message">Video available on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/live/cBazD8ieMrU - Live Notes available at https://churchlinkfeeds.blob.core.windows.net/notes/38370/note-240654.html</span>

Message by Chris Brown on July 19, 2025. Was Jesus really against religion, and what does it mean that Christianity is a relationship, not a religion, when it is actually the largest religion in the world? Those two questions are answered in our passage today and the answer may just free you from the guilt and shame that bad religion can bring. <span class="hide-message">Video available on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/live/4U7s_NzIXgU - Live Notes available at https://churchlinkfeeds.blob.core.windows.net/notes/38370/note-240107.html</span>

Message by Chris Brown on July 12, 2025. The covenant of marriage starts on page one of the Bible, and from that point on, there have been two battles of how to stay in it and how to get out of it. Today, we go back to the very beginning and try to discover what the Bible and Jesus actually taught about the issue of divorce, and I promise there will be some surprises in here for all of us. <span class="hide-message">Video available on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/live/FBrcHak-9tw - Live Notes available at https://churchlinkfeeds.blob.core.windows.net/notes/38370/note-239594.html</span>

Message by Chris Brown on June 28, 2025. Why are we trying our best and still not living anything close to the “abundant life” that Jesus promised us? As we will find out this week, the problem has far more to do with what is on our inside, than what we are doing on the outside. And good news…it is all fixable and covered by grace. <span class="hide-message">Video available on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/live/ON-h6CuNiAE - Live Notes available at https://churchlinkfeeds.blob.core.windows.net/notes/38370/note-238397.html</span>

Message by Chris Brown on June 21, 2025. Maybe you have heard that Christians are called to be salt and light, but what does that really mean? What did those two elements mean to Jesus’ listeners back then, and what mandate do they give us today? <span class="hide-message">Video available on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/live/_wbOGlXOHgc - Live Notes available at https://churchlinkfeeds.blob.core.windows.net/notes/38370/note-237813.html</span>

Message by Larry Osborne on June 14, 2025. Jesus’ kingdom is radically different from the kingdoms of this world. So are the traits that lead to a blessed and fortunate life. This week, we’ll take a deep dive into FOUR TRAITS TO LIVE BY from Jesus’ Sermon on the Mount. <span class="hide-message">Video available on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/live/nAtsHWB1PMA - Live Notes available at https://churchlinkfeeds.blob.core.windows.net/notes/38370/note-237333.html</span>

Message by Chris Brown on June 7, 2025. Today Jesus defines Christianity and what following Him is going to look like. Simply put: He is the King setting up His kingdom, explaining the kind of citizens that will live in this world and the next one to come. <span class="hide-message">Video available on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/live/1bvj2fNbS7I - Live Notes available at https://churchlinkfeeds.blob.core.windows.net/notes/38370/note-236731.html</span>

Message by Larry Osborne on May 31, 2025. What kind of people does God use? Not the ones you’d expect. In this message from Matthew 4, we see how Jesus launched His ministry by calling the least likely—and what that means for us today. <span class="hide-message">Video available on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/live/pF3OozuyPBo - Live Notes available at https://churchlinkfeeds.blob.core.windows.net/notes/38370/note-236123.html</span>

Message by Arnold Camacho on May 24, 2025. Jesus faced temptation—every pull, every whisper—yet never surrendered to it. His strength was trust; His weapon, the Word. When we face temptation and stand at the edge of surrender, how will we respond? What is the way forward? As Jesus was led into the wilderness, he showed us the way. <span class="hide-message">Video available on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/live/BOoq4raAhgQ - Live Notes available at https://churchlinkfeeds.blob.core.windows.net/notes/38370/note-235429.html</span>

Message by Larry Osborne on May 17, 2025. Why was Jesus baptized if He had no sin? In this message, we meet a wild prophet in the wilderness and uncover a baptism unlike any other. See how Jesus’ first step into the water invites us to step into a life of obedience and surrender. <span class="hide-message">Video available on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/live/DLYFNfHI1i0 - Live Notes available at https://churchlinkfeeds.blob.core.windows.net/notes/38370/note-234802.html</span>

Message by Chris Brown on April 26, 2025. What if I told you that the life you’ve always wanted and the experience of total freedom comes only through the act of surrender…would you even know how to do that? Today, we break it down step by step in order to see surrender as our best option, not a last resort. <span class="hide-message">Video available on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/live/JSBnkOjQDHQ - Live Notes available at https://churchlinkfeeds.blob.core.windows.net/notes/38370/note-233040.html</span>

Message by Chris Brown on April 19, 2025. As we kick off our study of the book of Matthew, we have to admit that most Easter messages don’t uncover the truth about just how dysfunctional Jesus’ family really was. However, if that is where Matthew chose to start his story, then we may just find hope for our dysfunctional lives from page one as well. We welcome you to the "The Art of Surrender," and ironically hope that you find an incredible amount of freedom in that act as well. <span class="hide-message">Video available on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/live/JSBnkOjQDHQ - Live Notes available at https://churchlinkfeeds.blob.core.windows.net/notes/38370/note-232419.html</span>

Message by Larry Osborne on April 12, 2025. As we conclude our "Foundations" series, this week we’ll take a look at faith. It’s something all Christians know we need to have, but as we’ll see, few of us know what it actually is according to the biblical definition. <span class="hide-message">Video available on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/live/Cej0v8uNTE0 - Live Notes available at https://churchlinkfeeds.blob.core.windows.net/notes/38370/note-231839.html</span>

Message by Arnold Camacho on April 5, 2025. Have you ever told anyone about Jesus? Have you ever evangelized anyone? Do you even know what that means? This weekend we will dive into the fact that every Christian is an ambassador for Christ, entrusted with the incredible message of the Gospel. This can be intimidating, but what you may not realize is that you all have what it takes to share this message. Come learn how. <span class="hide-message">Video available on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/live/-DgKiu-YCgQ - Live Notes available at https://churchlinkfeeds.blob.core.windows.net/notes/38370/note-231201.html</span>

Message by Chris Brown on March 29, 2025. Why did Jesus talk so much about finances? Does God really care that much about what I have and what I do with it? How can I keep from being so financially stressed out all the time? Does the depth of my spiritual walk really have anything to do with my spending? These questions and more will be answered today as we lay out how to find total freedom from the money god that is in our lives. For additional stewardship resources, text “FOUNDATIONS” to (844) 921-0220. <span class="hide-message">Video available on Vimeo at https://vimeo.com/1068509213 - Live Notes available at https://churchlinkfeeds.blob.core.windows.net/notes/38370/note-230495.html</span>

Message by Chris Brown on March 22, 2025. One of the greatest questions and debates in our culture and church today is over the question of what the Bible has to say about sex, and how do we apply it to our lives today? If we are going to be genuine followers of Christ in all areas of our lives, then this question has to be a part of our Foundation series, so let’s jump in and unpack these truths together.

Message by Larry Osborne on March 15, 2025. What comes to your mind when you hear the word “church?” Surprisingly, for most people it’s not what the Bible means when it talks about the “church.” This week we’ll discover why a biblical church is so important – and what a biblical church actually is. <span class="hide-message">Video available on Vimeo at https://vimeo.com/1063957483 - Live Notes available at https://churchlinkfeeds.blob.core.windows.net/notes/38370/note-229328.html</span>

Message by Chris Brown on March 08, 2025. We say phrases like “I have no idea where I’m going,” but in all honesty, it is very rare if we find ourselves in a place where we have no idea where we are literally going. However, the journey of Christian discipleship may just be one of those cases. Other than Heaven, do you know where your discipleship destination is? Today we will find out that it is not a guessing game, and may be much simpler than we would have guessed. <span class="hide-message">Video available on Vimeo at https://vimeo.com/1061657843 - Live Notes available at https://churchlinkfeeds.blob.core.windows.net/notes/38370/note-228732.html</span>

Message by Larry Osborne on March 01, 2025. Jesus told His Apostles (and all of us as His followers) to go into all the world and make disciples. One problem is that lots of us have no idea what a disciple actually is. This weekend, we’ll dial in on what Jesus is asking us today and explode some of the most common “Discipleship Myths” that linger. <span class="hide-message">Video available on Vimeo at https://vimeo.com/1059379828 - Live Notes available at https://churchlinkfeeds.blob.core.windows.net/notes/38370/note-228128.html</span>

Message by Chris Brown on February 22, 2025. Humans have always seemed to be fascinated with the topic of life after death and the stories of those who have returned from the great beyond. Knowing this, Jesus gave us a glimpse into what to expect when we die, and more importantly, He gave us the answers to the test ahead of time to make sure that we don’t waste our lives. <span class="hide-message">Video available on Vimeo at https://vimeo.com/1056918940 - Live Notes available at https://churchlinkfeeds.blob.core.windows.net/notes/38370/note-227449.html</span>

Message by Chris Brown on February 15, 2025. Have you ever wondered what the Holy Spirit is, and even more importantly, how it works? Today we will try to simplify all of that and give a clear step-by-step guide to how one can walk in the Spirit. And spoiler alert, He is a WHO, not a WHAT. <span class="hide-message">Video available on Vimeo at https://vimeo.com/1054878725 - Live Notes available at https://churchlinkfeeds.blob.core.windows.net/notes/38370/note-226821.html</span>

Message by Larry Osborne on February 08, 2025. “Be filled with the Spirit,” and “Walk in the Spirit.” It sounds good. But what does it actually mean and look like? And who or what is the Holy Spirit anyway? Well, He’s not a ghost. And this week we’ll discover who He actually is and what it means to be filled and walk in the Spirit. <span class="hide-message">Video available on Vimeo at https://vimeo.com/1054863186 - Live Notes available at https://churchlinkfeeds.blob.core.windows.net/notes/38370/note-226297.html</span>

Message by Chris Brown on February 1, 2025. Does Christianity have to be the only way for all people to get to Heaven? What about other religions filled with good people who are doing good things, or those who live in places where the Bible isn’t being taught? Can we believe in Jesus without having to make it necessary for everyone else to have to believe in Jesus? Today is our best shot at answering these questions and many others like them. <span class="hide-message">Video available on Vimeo at https://vimeo.com/1050415038 - Live Notes available at https://churchlinkfeeds.blob.core.windows.net/notes/38370/note-225707.html</span>

Message by Larry Osborne on January 25, 2025. Who is Jesus? Actually, that’s a far more difficult and complex question than most people realize. Join us as we look into Jesus: The Man, The Myth, and The Lord – and why who we see Him as is the most important spiritual question we’ll ever answer. <span class="hide-message">Video available on Vimeo at https://vimeo.com/1048226541 - Live Notes available at https://churchlinkfeeds.blob.core.windows.net/notes/38370/note-225066.html</span>

Message by Chris Brown on January 18, 2025. Why are we here? Do we have any real purpose on this earth? What is it that sets us apart from the rest of the animals and creation? Are we just the end result of an evolutionary process, or could we be created for a purpose by a purpose? We will try to tackle all this and more in this message. <span class="hide-message">Video available on Vimeo at https://vimeo.com/1046567925 - Live Notes available at https://churchlinkfeeds.blob.core.windows.net/notes/38370/note-224494.html</span>

Message by Chris Brown on January 11, 2025. "One of the problems I had with the church is that some pastor used the Bible to prove the Bible… that just didn’t work for me.

Message by Chris Brown on January 04, 2025. Why has there always been a majority of people that believe that there is a god, and then have some need to worship or obey him/her? Is there a plausible answer for this outside of the Bible or some religious book, and is this still the answer we need to build our lives around today? <span class="hide-message">Video available on Vimeo at https://vimeo.com/1043762097 - Live Notes available at https://churchlinkfeeds.blob.core.windows.net/notes/38370/note-223185.html</span>

Message by Arnold Camacho on December 28, 2024. Immanuel, God with us. Was this truth intended for the Christmas season alone? Or is it a gift we can lean into every second of every day? There is a super power available to us, one that can go unnoticed or misunderstood, a gift given the moment we first believed. As we step into the new year, we don't have to go it alone— God is with us, along with a power that will never fail us. <span class="hide-message">Video available on Vimeo at https://vimeo.com/1042510494 - Live Notes available at https://churchlinkfeeds.blob.core.windows.net/notes/38370/note-222768.html</span>

Message by Chris Brown on December 21, 2024. Why does the Christmas season bring more stress, anxiety, depression, and loneliness than any other time of the year when its original purpose was to bring the exact opposite? Today we will return to discovering Christmas in what we have made of the Christmas season, and hopefully walk away with a remedy to everything that we have been searching for in this season. <span class="hide-message">Video available on Vimeo at https://vimeo.com/1039094017 - Live Notes available at https://churchlinkfeeds.blob.core.windows.net/notes/38370/note-222282.html</span>

Message by Chris Brown on December 7, 2024. Grace - Is it a prayer before dinner, the movements of a figure skater, a biblical word for theologians, or the heartbeat of every Christian's life?

We have all either said out loud or at least thought to ourselves, “Why is this happening to me?” Why do bad things happen to good people? Why is there so much suffering in the world today, and what is the point of it all? Today’s message will guide us through the answers to some of these questions, but more importantly give us a blueprint on how to find success in the midst of suffering. <span class="hide-message"> Video available at: https://vimeo.com/1029862925 Live Notes available at: https://churchlinkfeeds.blob.core.windows.net/notes/38370/note-219520.html </span>

Message by Chris Brown on November 9, 2024. Whether we have been a Christian for 70 years or 7 days, are we sure of what that changes for us on a daily basis? There is a HUGE difference between saying that we are a Christian and walking with Christ, and today’s passage is about to make that crystal clear for all of us. <span class="hide-message"> Video available at: https://vimeo.com/1027555093 Live Notes available at: https://churchlinkfeeds.blob.core.windows.net/notes/38370/note-218968.html</span>

Message by Larry Osborne on November 2, 2024. Our job is to represent Jesus well. But influence and persuasion take more than just true words. It takes the right words, at the right time, in the right way. The Apostle Peter tells us exactly what that looks like as we continue our study through his letter to a persecuted and scattered group of early Christians.

Message by Chris Brown on October 19, 2024. Why is there so much fighting and conflict in the Christian camp these days, and how can we find any peace and joy in the midst of it? Maybe it all has to do with the fact that we are supposed to fight…we are just fighting the wrong war with the wrong weapons. Today’s passage should help us find our way back to the true us that we were created to be and filled with the right Spirit that we were supposed to have. https://vimeo.com/1011056899 Live Notes available at https://churchlinkfeeds.blob.core.windows.net/notes/38370/note-217352.html

Message by Larry Osborne on October 12, 2024. What do you think of when you hear the word priest or even pastor? Odds are that only a few of us think, “Oh, that’s me!” You might be surprised at what Peter has to say about that. https://vimeo.com/1011056899 Video available on YouTube at https://youtube.com/live/WG4aWYVbUgI- Live Notes available at https://churchlinkfeeds.blob.core.windows.net/notes/38370/note-216808.html

Message by Chris Brown on October 5, 2024. Have you ever noticed how futile and frustrating it is to try to change the world and the people around you? Maybe that is because we are going about this all the wrong way and backwards. Today’s passage makes it crystal clear how we should be seeking to change our minds…and then watch how Christ changes our world. https://vimeo.com/1011056899 Video available on YouTube at https://youtube.com/live/C3Xxf4TqKfM- Live Notes available at https://churchlinkfeeds.blob.core.windows.net/notes/38370/note-216337.html
