In this series, I Am Chosen, we’re exploring what it truly means to be chosen by God and called into His mission. Before Jesus ascended into heaven, He gave us clear marching orders—to go into the world and make disciples of all nations.

Each week, we’ll look at a different aspect of that calling: what it means to be chosen, to go, to wait, to worship, to pray, and to serve. Through this journey, we’re laying the groundwork for who we are as followers of Jesus and what He’s called us to do while we wait for His return. Our goal is to be ready and responsive to what Jesus is calling us to do—both individually and together as His church.

Is It Too Late To Say I'm Sorry?

  • Matt Nickoson

Is It Always In The Blood?

  • Matt Nickoson
Pastor Matt teaches how sin and unhealthy behaviors can pass through family lines, as with Abraham and Isaac.

Fix You

  • Matt Nickoson
Pastor Matt discusses how our lives are like trees bearing fruit that others experience, but fear often drives the unhealthy behaviors and sins that produce bitter fruit. Looking at Genesis 2–3, he examines how Adam and Eve’s fear-driven choices led to shame and broken relationships. The solution isn’t trying to fix ourselves or others—it’s allowing Jesus to transform our root system. When fear is replaced with faith, new fruit begins to grow, but this requires surrendering daily and dying to old ways as we follow Him.

As Ezekiel 11 reminds us, God promises to replace our hearts of stone with hearts of flesh.

You Will Never Go Through It Alone

  • Matt Nickoson
In this message on Psalm 23:5, Pastor Matt explains that our true enemy is not other people but Satan, who uses lies to make us question God's goodness and our identity. By replacing “but I” thoughts with “but God” truths, spending time in God’s presence, renewing our minds, and staying connected with other believers, we can take every thought captive (2 Corinthians 10:5) and refuse to give the enemy a seat at our table.
