It's easy to be kind to our friends. But what about strangers? What about the people who have hurt us? In this sermon, "Who Am I Supposed To Serve?", we're digging into the idea of true hospitality. Using the story of the Good Samaritan, we explore what it looks like to "cross the road" for people who are broken—even when it's inconvenient, costly, or for someone we'd call an enemy. We all have a "20-foot circle" of influence, and this message is a challenge to use it. After all, people often won't care what we believe until they see how we serve.

It's easy to feel like you don't have enough to make a real difference. We see a big need, look at our own hands, and think, "I can't help." But what if the problem isn't what we have, but our willingness to use it? In this message, we're diving into the excuses that stop us from practicing hospitality. Using the story of the feeding of the 5,000, we're learning that God isn't looking for our extravagance—He's looking for our willingness. What's in your hands? A little bit of time? A specific skill? A resource? It might be the exact thing God wants to use to change someone's world. At 12Stone Church, learn how to Know God, Find Freedom, Discover Purpose and Make a Difference.

In a world that is often hostile, hospitality is a superpower. Are we just practicing fellowship with people we already like, or are we practicing true hospitality by "loving the outsider"?Choosing hospitality means being intentional. It’s seeing compassion towards all people not as a suggestion, but as a "divine expectation". It’s moving beyond our comfort zones to "pursue" and be "inventive" in how we care for the "unlikely" people around us.

Does your home ever feel more chaotic than peaceful? In a world where everything can feel uncertain, it's easy for that same confusion to take over our families, leaving everyone feeling unsteady. What if your most important role as a parent wasn't just to manage the chaos, but to intentionally create order?
In this message, we discover that the calling of a parent is to bring order out of a chaotic world. While kids might say they enjoy chaos, we learn they are actually designed to thrive in the security and safety that comes from an ordered environment.
You'll learn why establishing clear boundaries and standards is the key to helping your family move from devolving into chaos to thriving in peace , and how to restore order when the world around you feels out of control.

Does life feel too busy and chaotic to build a strong, healthy family? It’s easy to feel like you're just two ships passing in the night—more like roommates than soulmates, or more like chauffeurs than parents. What if the solution isn't about adding more to your already packed schedule?
In this message, we discover that a healthy family isn’t built in big, grand gestures, but "on the go" in the small, everyday moments that we all have. We explore the powerful idea of choosing to build your family with "stones"—the intentional, lasting habits—instead of "straw," the easy, convenient choices that don't hold up when life gets hard.
You'll learn how to replace what you're already doing with better, more connecting habits and how to prepare your family to be unshakeable when the storms of life come.

What if following Jesus isn’t just about what you believe—but how you live?
This message unpacks how God designed your body, soul, and choices to work together for His glory.
Because when you try to live with “square wheels,” life breaks down—but when you live by His design, it starts to roll the way it was meant to.At 12Stone Church, learn how to Know God, Find Freedom, Discover Purpose and Make a Difference.

Have you ever wondered why your family feels so dysfunctional, like a bumpy, jarring ride? The truth is, God created family to be a smooth and effective "round wheel". But the world—and the influence of sin—comes along to shave down and redefine key relationships, turning God's perfect design into a broken "square wheel". In this message, we dive into God's divine design for family, revealing the simple, non-obvious reason your home life or marriage may be struggling. You love God first, your spouse second, and yourself third. When we get this order wrong, we bring our own baggage, wounding, and narcissistic tendencies into our most sacred bonds. Stop the destructive "tug of war" in your home, reject the square wheel, and learn how to get on the same side to build a transformed, unshakable life.

Everyone has problems they are trying to fix, from daily struggles to deeper issues like anxiety or a broken marriage. In this message, Pastor Jason takes a look at the movie
Spider-Man: No Way Home to explore how our problems, much like Peter Parker's, don't exist in a vacuum and often become someone else's pain.
Just like Peter tried to ignore, hide, and fix his problems on his own, we often do the same. However, ignoring our problems won't make them go away, and hiding them only makes them grow more dangerous. The Bible says that our sin will track us down and that the consequence of sin is always "later and greater". It always leads to a harvest of decay and death.
Ultimately, Spider-Man realizes that to fix everything, a great sacrifice must be made. Similarly, the Bible tells us that the wages of sin is death, which means a sacrifice must be made to fix our problems. The good news is that we don't have to be the ones to make that sacrifice. While we were still powerless and caught in our sin, Christ died for us. God loves and values us so much that Jesus was glad to die in our place, giving us the opportunity for a new life.
If you're tired of running, hiding, or trying to fix your problems on your own, it's time to stop and trust in the free gift of forgiveness and salvation that Jesus offers. He is the only way to have a true fresh start.

In this teaching, we explore the core message of the movie Hook: a man who misplaced his identity and lost his purpose, leaving him hollow, empty, and powerless. Pastor JB argues that this is a timely word for us today, as much of the suffering we experience is the result of misplaced identity in things like career, relationships, and politics. Biblically, this misplaced identity is a form of idolatry that leads to anger, apathy, or aimlessness.
The good news is that salvation isn't just forgiveness—it's an identity transformation. When you surrender to Jesus, he redefines you as a new creation and an ambassador for Christ, breaking the cycle of brokenness.
This sermon speaks to two groups: those who need boldness in their identity as a Christ-follower and those who need to bow to Jesus for the first time to find their true identity and purpose.

In this message, we explore the universal struggle with emotions like anger, fear, and anxiety through the lens of the movie
Inside Out 2. While the movie is great at showing what's broken, it offers a poor guide for our lives, suggesting we can fix ourselves by trying to be a "good person".
The truth is, we are incapable of solving what is truly broken inside of us. Jesus did not come to make bad people good; He came to bring dead people to life. The good news of the gospel is that salvation is not by our works, but is a gift from God, by grace through faith in Jesus.
If you're tired of trying to fix yourself and are ready to admit you need a Savior, this message is for you.
