Death of a King
DEATH OF A KING //
March 29th, 2026 // [Part 1 of 1]
Death had the last word because death was the consequence of sin—but not anymore. Jesus, God’s final King, crushed both sin and death and invites us to reign in life through him.
Death to the King
DEATH TO THE KING //
March 22nd, 2026 // [Part 1 of 1]
As followers of Jesus, we have all wrestled with the same tension at some point: we all want to be saved, but we don't always want to submit. In this message, we talk about the difference between "Jesus the Savior" and "Jesus the King" and why it's the most important thing.
Mind Traps
MIND TRAPS // Victim Mindset
March 1st, 2026 // [Part 1 of 3]
Choose to believe God is aligning circumstances around you to do something in you and through you. Jesus became the victim so we could see victory.
MIND TRAPS // Negativity
March 8th, 2026 // [Part 2 of 3]
No one likes feeling trapped. We all have a mindset, a particular way of viewing the world around us. What if our mindsets about life have become mind traps? How would we know? What would we do if that was true? This week, we’re talking about the mind trap of negativity.
MIND TRAPS // All-Or-Nothing
March 15th, 2026 // [Part 3 of 3]
Whether we realize it or not, our mindsets and thought patterns lead us. When a mindset has become a mind trap, we need a mind change. This week we’re talking about the mind trap of all-or-nothing: the tendency to think in terms of polar opposites without accepting the possibilities that lie between the two extremes. All-or-nothing thinking leads to the belief we have to get everything perfectly right or we are worthless.
Made For More
MADE FOR MORE // Defining Terms
February 15th, 2026 // [Part 1 of 2]
Jesus redefined generosity—not as spontaneous or sparing, but as intentional and prioritized. His approach ensures we don’t put our trust in riches but in God who richly provides. Choosing to follow his definition of generosity results in greater impact, less worry, more joy, and more peace.
MADE FOR MORE // The Plan
February 22rd, 2026 // [Part 2 of 2]
Everyone has a generosity plan, but most people prioritize spending first and leave giving as an afterthought. Jesus flipped the script on that approach with “Seek ye first” living. Embracing this financial template is a tangible expression of submission to our King.
The Last Kingdom
THE LAST KINGDOM // Lost in Translation
January 11th, 2026 // [Part 1 of 5]
If we re-center our faith around the arrival of a King rather than a ticket to heaven, we will discover why his arrival and his kingdom is good news for all people.
THE LAST KINGDOM // Reclaiming the Plotline
January 18th, 2026 // [Part 2 of 5]
The term "Christ" was originally a royal title meaning "Anointed One" or “King,” not a name. And the message of the Gospel is not just about personal salvation, but about aligning with the reign of Jesus as King.
THE LAST KINGDOM // Beyond Pledging Allegiance
January 25th, 2026 // [Part 3 of 5]
People all over the world claim to be Christian based on a belief that Jesus is the ultimate king. But at times, we can find ourselves living in defiance of the very King we swear allegiance to.
THE LAST KINGDOM // Fight Like the King
February 1st, 2026 // [Part 4 of 5]
The fight of faith is about becoming more like Jesus, not about defeating enemies.
THE LAST KINGDOM // Unstoppable
February 8th, 2026 // [Part 5 of 5]
Jesus’s kingdom is not advanced by force, but over time through transformed lives. We are invited to participate in its expansion.
Better
BETTER // Do This One Thing
January 4th, 2026 // [Part 1 of 1]
We believe better is possible, but actually moving toward it can be challenging. Why is that? And is there a way to truly experience better?
Christmas at LifeHouse
CHRISTMAS CELEBRATION AT LIFEHOUSE // Special One-Time Experience
December 21, 2025 // [Part 1 of 1]
Christmas is a time to reflect on the true meaning of the season - Jesus coming to us to bring love and hope.
Sinners Like Me
SINNERS LIKE ME // The Back Story
November 30, 2025 // [Part 1 of 3]
The story of Judah and Tamar is probably not one we would have mentioned if we were the ones telling the back story of Jesus’s ancestors. However, many times God’s story highlights the unlikely and the undeserving.
SINNERS LIKE ME // Party Crasher
December 7, 2025 // [Part 2 of 3]
Rahab is one of a few people in the lineage of Jesus that wasn’t Jewish — she was a Canaanite. Not to mention, she was a prostitute. But neither of those things kept her from being used by God in an incredible way.
SINNERS LIKE ME // Misfits & Embarrassments
December 14, 2025 // [Part 3 of 3]
The lineage of Jesus is full of people with stories that would make anyone blush, including the likes of King David and Lot’s daughters. But in spite of jaw-dropping choices people made, God’s purposes marched forward.

The Power of a Made Up Story
THE POWER OF A MADE UP STORY // Unforgiving Servant
November 16, 2025 // [Part 2 of 2]
Our capacity to forgive flows from what we’ve been forgiven. So, how much forgiveness is enough?
THE POWER OF A MADE UP STORY // Unforgiving Servant
November 9, 2025 // [Part 1 of 2]

This is the Way
This is the Way // Special 1-Part Message
November 2, 2025 // [Special 1-Part Message]
The miracle of the universe is the foundation of our faith in God, but a different miracle is the foundation of our faith in Jesus.
Miracles: Then and Now

Heaven, Hell, and Everything in Between
HEAVEN, HELL AND EVERYTHING IN BETWEEN // Connection
September 28, 2025 // [Part 3 of 3]
We all fall short sometimes. How we respond to temptations and frustrations can affect our well-being and relationships. What would happen if we brought our struggles into the light and invited others in?
HEAVEN, HELL AND EVERYTHING IN BETWEEN // Alignment
September 21, 2025 // [Part 2 of 3]
Everyone has a worldview. It governs your beliefs, decisions, and behaviors. You owe it to yourself to be honest about your source of truth because that will ultimately govern your life.
HEAVEN, HELL AND EVERYTHING IN BETWEEN // Reality
September 14, 2025 // [Part 1 of 3]
What’s really going on in the world? The reality is that something is governing your life — and it’s not you.

GAMES WE PLAY // The Comparison Game

When we play the comparison game and allow envy to motivate our actions, it can cost us more than we expect.
GAMES WE PLAY // The Change Game
July 27, 2025 // [Part 4 of 4]
We have a natural tendency to be critical toward others because we want others to change for our benefit. So how does Jesus actually address this idea of being critical and judging others? Is it ever healthy? How do you want to be judged?

Broken and Grateful

We can disagree culturally and politically, and still love unconditionally.
Baptism, Going Public
GOING PUBLIC
June 22, 2025 // [Part 1 of 1]
Originally, “baptism” was not a religious concept. Yet over time, baptism has become an exclusively religious idea - one that even rouses deep emotion and controversy. In this message, Matt Braun unpacks baptism, from its birth with John the Baptist to its modern equivalent. If you are a follower of Christ and baptism is still on your “to-do” list, this message may be the nudge you need to finally go public.

Following the script of Jesus doesn’t mean all men will be the same. But it does mean we’ll be better men.
