HERE IS WATER | What Hinders Me? Nothing.
What is keeping you from taking your next step of faith?
In Acts 8, an Ethiopian eunuch asks a life-changing question: “See, here is water. What hinders me from being baptized?” After a lifetime of feeling excluded and disqualified, he discovers that through Jesus, the barriers have been removed.
In this powerful message, we explore the true meaning of water baptism—a personal decision, a public declaration of faith, and an act of obedience that represents the new life we have in Christ.
Whether you've been waiting for the perfect moment, questioning your worthiness, or simply putting off your next step, this message is a reminder that you don't have to have everything figured out to follow Jesus.
The question is simple: What hinders you? The answer: Nothing.
Scripture References: Acts 8:36–40, Isaiah 56:3–5, Romans 6:4, Matthew 28:19

What do you do when life feels heavy, the pressure is overwhelming, and you realize you can’t carry it all on your own?
In this message, guest pastor Justin Wiegand shares openly from his own journey and reminds us of a powerful truth: God never intended for us to navigate life in our own strength.
God is good. He is faithful. He is our Helper, our Sustainer, and the One who gives us strength when we are weak. Even when we don’t understand what we’re walking through, we can trust the character of God and know that He will never leave us or forsake us.
Maybe you’re carrying stress, pressure, fear, or burdens you were never meant to carry. The answer isn’t to try harder or become stronger on your own—it’s to fix your eyes on Jesus, humble yourself before Him, and simply say, “God, I need You.”
“My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness.” — 2 Corinthians 12:9
We pray this message encourages you to release what you’ve been carrying, depend on God’s strength, and find rest in His presence.

Where Are You, God?
When life falls apart, it's one of the most honest questions we can ask: "Where are You, God?"
Whether you're facing loss, disappointment, unanswered prayers, sickness, or seasons where God feels distant, Scripture reminds us that His presence isn't determined by our circumstances.
In this powerful message, Larry shares personal stories of grief, doubt, healing, and renewed trust, while pointing us to the truth found in God's Word. Through the stories of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, Jesus' promise in John 16, and the faithfulness of God throughout life's hardest moments, we're reminded that there is no such thing as a God-forsaken place.
In this message you'll discover:
• Why disappointment can distort our view of God
• How unmet expectations affect our faith
• Where true peace is found in the middle of trouble
• What it means to trust God—even when we don't understand
• The hope of knowing that God is with us in every season
