SNAIL MAIL
May 24 - July 5, 2026
There was a time when getting a letter in the mail meant something special. But if you're a church and you get a letter from Jesus, you'd better pay attention. In this series, we'll look at Jesus' 7 letters to the churches for what we can learn about ours.
MESSAGES IN THIS SERIES
LaodiceaJuly 5, 2026We say it all the time: "The sight of _______ just makes me sick." Sometimes it's true; sometimes it's not. We don't really think about it, but did you know that Jesus says there is something that makes Him sick? It's true. If we're not careful, that ONE thing can lead us to places we don't want to go. Watch as we conclude our series, "Snail Mail." Chris Beatty, Lead Pastor | |
PhiladelphiaJune 28, 2026There is one action noted in Scripture that should make us all sit up and take notice. Without this one thing, we're told, it is impossible to please God. When we have it, Jesus rewards us in ways we can't even imagine. In this message, we'll dig in together to figure it all out. Chris Beatty, :Lead Pastor | |
SardisJune 21, 2026Being confident is generally viewed as a good thing. It celebrates our abilities, our effort, and our talents. But it's not about us. Human confidence can be very dangerous in God's economy. When a church relies on it's own merits, it can die from the inside out. Watch to find out how we can avoid this deadly trap. Chris Beatty, Lead Pastor | |
ThyatiraJune 14, 2026Sometimes a church and it's members can look REALLY good on the outside. To the outside world, we might look healthy, vibrant, and loving. But sometimes that outward appearance is just a mask for what's hidden underneath. This week, we'll see what that mask can hide and learn how we can avoid that same trap. Chris Beatty, Lead Pastor | |
PergamumJune 7, 2026We live in a world where compromise is normally a good thing. Husbands and wives, social groups, friend circles, and workplaces all thrive when we're able to compromise for the greater good. But compromise isn't always beneficial. In fact, compromise in the wrong areas can be very dangerous - not just for us, but also for the church. Watch and learn how we can avoid the danger. Chris Beatty, Lead Pastor | |
SmyrnaMay 31, 2026Rainy days and Mondays always get us down. But so does life, fear, anxiety, relationships, and just about anything else the world throws at us. What do we do? How do we respond? This week, Jesus' letter to the church gives us great hope for when things go south. Don't miss this one! Chris Beatty, Lead Pastor | |
EphesusMay 24, 2026The days of receiving a hand-written letter in the mail are almost gone forever. It seems like a lost art form. If someone were to take the time to hand write a letter, it must be something special and important. This week, we'll start looking at the letters Jesus wrote and learn that a church can look good on paper, but still be missing something important. Don't miss the kick-off! Chris Beatty, Lead Pastor |
