Hit with the Force of Joy

Feb 02 2025 46 mins

Where are ~~you~~ we going? This week we consider the significance that all things are from, through, and to Jesus. You, me, the Church, and Hope Community Church were all created by God to showcase how great and good he is. So, this year, in light of Jesus being the head of our church, may our ministry efforts in community, church planting, and the God is Moving campaign hit us wi

According to Plan

Jan 26 2025 43 mins

Quit Day -- the second Friday of January -- is the perfect picture of why so many of our plans fall apart: big ambitions meet the unpredictability of real life. But it’s not just bad luck or lack of effort -- the world’s brokenness and our own misplaced desires often derail us before we even begin. Learning how to plan from a greater sense of purpose while understanding our pla

The Best is Yet to Come

Jan 19 2025 45 mins

What if heaven is less about escaping to the clouds and more about being with Jesus, who is making everything new? The purpose of heaven is to undo death in all its forms—restoring what was lost and healing what was shattered. If this is true, then heaven's power isn’t just for someday but is also here and now, as we're set free from trying to make heaven on earth because this

He gets us. All of us.

God’s ways are not our ways

Jan 05 2025 48 mins

We would like to believe that we know how God operates. It gives us an illusion of control and predictability. He feels safer that way. But God does not act in keeping with our directives. Rather his ways are higher than our ways. And what this means might surprise you. It means that he is far more loving and forgiving and merciful than you and I imagine. Isaiah Cor Chmieleski Hope

A Relatable Savior

Dec 29 2024 40 mins

It's easy to think of a cosmic God who is very "other" than us. Yet, do we also God as one that is near, and can actually relate to everything we're going through? Discover how an Ethiopian eunuch not only finds acceptance and inclusion, but also a savior that can relate to his inner struggles.

What is Christmas all about? God with us!

Dec 22 2024 44 mins

The Lord himself will give you a sign: The virgin will conceive and give birth to a son, and will call him Immanuel.” These words would later be understood as clear reference to Jesus. He is the awaited Son. He is the one who is “God with Us.” This Christmas, we will consider afresh how we are a waiting, wondering, and worshiping group of people in light of the news that the

How to totally miss the point ...while doing and saying all the right things

Dec 15 2024 45 mins

Christmas can be a wonderful time of year, but it can also be a very spiritually dry season as well. The traditions that are there to encourage us can end up becoming an in themselves. How does religion and tradition become a barrier to our relationship with God? How do we once again make sure we keep the “Christ” in Christmas? This week, we will focus in on these questions and

The Hidden God

Dec 08 2024 49 mins

Wait...God is hiding? Yes, Scripture and our experiences both testify that He is often concealed. But perhaps He’s hiding not to confuse but redirect -- away from speculation, pride, and misplaced seeking -- and inviting you to find Him in the last place you’d expect: humility, suffering, and the ordinary. Finding God isn’t about striving or guessing but trusting when He says

You alone are worthy!

Why do we value what we value? Is it driven by personal preference, tradition, a return on investment, or simply our emotions? The Bible tells a consistent and challenging story: humanity often misplaces its values, elevating what is trivial and neglecting what is truly significant. But why is this the case? More importantly, how can we learn to value what truly matters? Isaiah Co
