What are you ruled by? In the story of the twelve men who were sent to report on the conditions of the land of Caanan, ten of them came back with a perspective that was based in fear. Two of the men had faith and a positive outlook. They all saw potential, but most of them refused to take the risk. For you to function at your best, you need to step out, trust God and take a risk. When you are ruled by only what you see in front of you, you miss out on what God is saying and doing. But if you look past what is right in front of you, you will see the promises of God! Will you choose to be ruled by fear or faith?

This message in the Peace of Mind series explores anxiety and how to find peace. Facing overwhelming odds, Jehoshaphat sought God, fasted, gathered his community, and prayed with full dependence on the Lord. When we feel anxious, we are invited to turn to God in similar ways: through intentional prayer, fasting, and relying on supportive, faith-filled community. Ultimately, this sermon reminds us that our battles belong to God, and we can worship Him with confidence, knowing He is in control and His peace is available to us.

In the first message of the Peace of Mind series, we examine Jesus’ teaching on worry, rooted in trusting God as our Father. Jesus tells us not to worry because God, our loving Father, knows our needs and values us deeply—more than even the birds He provides for. When we forget this relationship, we fall into “value amnesia,” doubting our worth and security. Jesus calls us to seek God’s Kingdom first, surrendering control and finding peace in knowing that our Father cares for us.

In this sermon titled "Living in the End Times," part of the You Asked For It series, the message addresses common misconceptions about the end times, emphasizing hope over fear. Drawing from Matthew 24 and 1 Thessalonians 4-5, it explores the biblical context of Jesus’ teachings on the destruction of the temple and His eventual return. The message encourages living as "children of light," ready for Christ’s second coming without trying to predict dates. The sermon concludes with a call to action through the Landmark Vision and communion, symbolizing the hope of Christ’s return and His future kingdom.

Whether you are a parent or not, this message will encourage and strengthen your faith in God to trust Him always!

How do we manage time in a way that honors God? In this practical message, you'll discover that effective time management is about prioritization, not merely being busy. Haggai chapter 1 challenges us to assess whether our priorities align with God's, urging us to "think about it" before making commitments. The key to time management is putting God first. We are encouraged to seek godly counsel in decision-making and to recognize that worry does not add value to our lives. God cares about how we use our greatest resource!

Relationships can be complicated, especially when you don't see eye to eye. Pastor Greg Surratt shares practical tips on how to handle disagreements in relationships. He teaches from James 4:1, which challenges us to consider our internal desires as the source of quarrels, and Ephesians 4:1-2 which calls us to live out our Christian faith with humility and gentleness. By embodying the fruits of the Spirit and valuing others above ourselves, we can set a new standard for interactions and create a more peaceful, united community.

Our final core value is Unity: Life Is Better Together. The message emphasizes that God loves unity and calls His people to live in harmony. We need to embrace four key steps for fostering unity: determining your mindset, discovering your purpose, developing your character, and displaying your faith. We also celebrate every Dream Team member, who embodies these principles by serving the church. Our unity is a sign to this world that Jesus is the One who came to save us, and call us to live brand new!

In this message, we dive into Blaze Church's sixth core value: "Generosity Is Our Privilege." Drawing from Acts 20:35 and 2 Corinthians 8-9, we explore the biblical principle that generosity is not about the amount but about the heart behind the gift. True generosity is sacrificial and joyful, and it reflects the grace of the Gospel. As followers of Christ, we give not out of obligation but as an act of worship, acknowledging that God first gave to us. Our generosity blesses others and enables them to praise God, creating an eternal return on investment.
