What does a healthy private life look like for a disciple of Jesus? In this message from 1 Peter 3, we discover God’s design for relationships—between husbands and wives, friends, and our Heavenly Father. Learn how to honor, forgive, and find peace as you walk with Christ.

Submission isn’t easy—but when we see the bigger picture, it changes everything. In 1 Peter 2, we learn how submitting in our communities, our workplaces, and ultimately to Jesus Himself not only shapes us but points others to Him.

Ever feel spiritually low? Peter shows us why—and how to embrace a new identity that changes everything. As a church family, we’re learning what it means to leave behind the junk food of this world and build our lives fully on Jesus.

Your new identity comes with a new diet, a new foundation, and even a new calling. The question is—are you ready to embrace it?

What makes a disciple of Jesus live differently? In 1 Peter 1:13–25, we’re called to a life that stands out—through holiness, gratitude, and hope. Discover how God reshapes our lives for something far greater than this world.

Sometimes what feels like a dead end is actually the doorway to your destiny. In 1 Peter 1:1-12, we see how Jesus makes a disciple; by choosing, including, strengthening, and patiently waiting for each one of us—then and now. It is the same process even now!

Happy 21st anniversary church!

Today, we're talking a lot about generosity—but not just the kind that shows up in a donation. We mean the kind that starts in the heart, transforms how we live, and reflects the way Jesus gave everything for us. In this message, we look back on where we’ve been, who made it possible, and what it means for us moving forward. Because the truth is, we’re all here because someone else was generous first. Let’s talk about what it means to live that out—together.

Followers of Jesus are more than just hearers of the Word, they are doers! As the grace of God is poured into our lives, we allow it to flow out of us onto others by DOING, by SERVING. "Every time you serve, someone gets a glimpse of Jesus. And every time you serve, you look more like Him too." Let's agree to share more of Jesus with people and strive to look more like Him!

The process of true forgiveness includes 4 words; love, honesty, pity and trust. In Ephesians 4:31-32, we’re called to put away bitterness and extend the same mercy we’ve freely received. But forgiveness is more than pretending things never happened — it’s loving deeply, seeing someone’s story, and being honest with ourselves. When we understand that love covers a multitude of sins — not to hide them but to heal — we discover that forgiveness might just set us free too.

Is your phone your tool — or your master? In this sermon on technology, we explore how this amazing gift can quietly become a trap if we don’t set clear boundaries and create soul-restoring rhythms. Discover how to live free, not enslaved — and why the incarnation principle might be the key to reclaiming control. Don’t miss this chance to rethink your habits before your habits reshape you.

Today’s sermon tackles a sensitive and heavy topic: abortion. We live in a world where the enemy has lied and manipulated society into believing there’s nothing wrong with this choice — but what does Jesus say?

Together, we ask and answer three crucial questions: What is the lie? Who are the victims? What is the solution? The harsh reality is that abortion is a sin — but in Christ Jesus, we hold fast to His words that “where sin abounded, grace did much more abound.”

No matter where you are in this journey, whether you are confused...

In this message, we explore what it means on how to think about the government as a follower of Jesus. Many Christians wrestle with questions about politics, authority, and where our true allegiance lies. We address some of the most common questions believers have about government and how Scripture calls us to live—respecting and obeying earthly authority while remembering that our highest loyalty is to Christ and His kingdom. No matter who is in charge, we trust that God is sovereign and we live to honor Him above all. Continue listening for more in depth answers on the mo...

Dr. Christopher Yuan is an internationally recognized speaker, author, and trusted voice on biblical sexuality. His award-winning book, Holy Sexuality and the Gospel, was named 2020 Resource of the Year for Social Issues by Outreach Magazine. In it, Dr. Yuan offers a powerful and deeply gospel-centered message: our identity is not found in our sexuality but in Christ alone. He calls Christians to embrace holy sexuality—chastity in singleness and faithfulness in marriage—a vision that challenges cultural narratives and points to lasting truth rooted in Scripture.

After graduating from Moody Bible Institute, Dr. Yuan earned a Master’s in B...

Family isn’t always what we expected — and that’s okay. In this message, we explore God’s original design for family, how sin broke the first family, and the unexpected gift of hope that God offers through His plan of redemption. Whatever your family dynamic looks like, discover how God can bring beauty, healing, and purpose even in imperfection.

What if who you are wasn’t a mistake—but intentionally, beautifully, and purposefully crafted? In a world quick to blur or battle gender lines, what if Jesus sees something different in men and women—something equal yet distinct, and deeply valuable? Join us as we explore what Scripture reveals about identity, purpose, and how cultural noise can distort a design that was meant to reflect something eternal.

As we step into this new sermon series, discussing culture's HOT TOPICS over the summer, we have to address the fact that everyone wears glasses. These glasses reveal how we view the world. Is it through the lens of materialism? Humanism? Post-modernism? Moralism? That's for you to figure out. But at the end of your discovery, you'll probably ask the question, "Well, is there another way to view the world?" And the answer is YES. Tune in to learn more on these certain types of glasses, how we can take them off to see the Truth AND to find...

From knowing about the enormity and depth of God's love. To why and how to abide in God's love. And now we conclude with experiencing God's love. Pastor Andrew gives us an insightful look on what it looks like to truly sit and experience God's love. The transformation power that comes from resting and dwelling under God's love is indescribable YET possible, for you and for me. Continue listening to see why and how to do this!

What if the key to living with purpose isn’t about doing more—but staying connected to the right source? In this message, we unpack how remaining in Jesus leads to obeying Him—and how both are essential to truly loving others. Discover why you were never meant to make fruit, but to bear it by simply remaining in Him.

We have begun a brand new sermon series entitled, "For God So Loved" and we kick off with Pastor Caleb Sargent reminding us of what God's love really is, what it does and what it means for us. Though we will hear of beautiful stories and examples of love throughout the sermon, God's love for us transcends them all, keep listening to hear just how much God loves YOU!

In the finale of our sermon series, Jesus In His Own Words, we learn about what Jesus said we will become. We should be a voice for truth, a symbol of hope, a global movement and an everlasting kingdom. Keep listening to see how you can become all of these!

Last week, we heard Jesus describe who He is — in His own words. But if what He says about Himself is true, then what He says about us must be true too. You are known, loved, forgiven, chosen, and becoming new — not by your feelings or failures, but by His voice alone. What would change if you actually believed it? Let’s find out because it might just change everything.

Happy Easter Southern Hills family! Kicking off a brand new, three part sermon series entitled Jesus In His Own Words. Many of us have an expectation of who Jesus is when His Word tells us exactly who He said He was and what He came to do and it's greater than any expectation we could have of Him! He is the bread, the shepherd and the resurrection; keep listening to uncover exactly what that means and how it pertains to you!

What Happens When Jesus Steps In?

Palm Sunday was more than palm branches and praise—it was a moment that shook a city. From the Tabernacle to the Temple, and now to your heart… what changes when God steps in? Maybe everything. Tune in now to find out.

What really happens when Jesus steps into your life? It’s more than just a change of heart—it’s a complete shift in perspective, desire, and direction. You may start to see the world differently… feel uncomfortable where you once felt at home… crave things you never used to want. But why? And what does it mean? Something deep is happening beneath the surface. Listen in to uncover the quiet transformation that begins when Jesus truly takes hold.

The final chapters of Judges are some of the darkest in Scripture—filled with chaos, sin, and bloodshed. Israel was lost, doing whatever seemed right in their own eyes. But in the midst of this mess, one truth stands out: we are in desperate need of a Savior. Join us as we unpack this sobering story and see how it ultimately points to Jesus—the only One who can bring true redemption and restoration.

The Old Testament tells us many stories of the people of the times following fake and phony religions. Judges 17-18 is one of those stories and many of us have fallen into the trap that the Old Testament characters had fallen into... idolatry; wanting a god in our life but one that we can control. Spoiler alert, that's not going to work if you want to follow God. Keep listening to hear what takes place in the next installment of Judges: Heroes and Fools.

Jesus tells us simply, that He is the resurrection and the life. Now if that is true, the question becomes, what is He resurrecting in you?! Through some pastoral pivots, Pastor Caleb Sargent gave a last minute (yet extremely needed) message from the Holy Spirit on guiding us to admit that there are things we need to let go of, things that need to be fixed and more importantly, things that need to be resurrected and given life again! Pastor Caleb helps us guide us on that spiritual journey; what to do and what to expect!

No king, no peace. A nation in chaos, an outcast turned leader, and a tragic vow that should make us stop and think. Judges 10-11 isn’t just an ancient story—it’s a mirror reflecting powerful truths about who rules our lives, how God chooses the unlikely, and the dangers of thinking like the culture around us. What if Jephtah had chosen mercy instead of madness? What if we are making the same mistakes today? Stay tuned—this story is wilder (and more applicable) than you think.

What if the villain in your story isn’t just someone else—but something passed down? In Judges 9-10, we uncover the hidden cycles that shape our lives and how to break free. Generational curses don’t have to define you. Are you ready to change your story?

Who are you really? Gideon saw himself as weak, but God called him a mighty hero. His journey—from hiding in fear to leading a nation—was filled with doubt, criticism, and the temptation to fall back into old cycles. But what if trusting God isn’t a single lesson, but a lifelong process? Tune in as we unpack Gideon’s story and what it means for you today!

On today's episode, we hear about daughters of valor and we learn about what makes a strong woman. As we read through these chapters of Judges we can quickly find out that they are leaders we can follow. They are displays of grace, wisdom, confidence and strength, who wouldn't want their hero to have those qualities? Stay tuned in for more on Deborah and Jael in Judges 4-5!

What if the key to victory isn't about strength? What if God's greatest warriors didn't look like warriors at all? And what does this mean for you? We are in week 2 of an 8 week sermon series through Judges! Today's episode entitled Warriors and Assassins... continue watching to learn more on how Israel's physical battles back then can help us through our spiritual battles today!

From childhood, we admire heroes—whether it’s Spider-Man, Indiana Jones, or Jack Bauer. But as we grow, we start to ask deeper questions: What truly makes a hero? What makes a fool? And where do I fit into this story?

The book of Judges forces us to wrestle with these questions as we meet powerful kings, cruel gods, and unexpected leaders. Israel was destined to save the land, free the people, and introduce the ONE TRUE GOD—but things didn’t go as planned.

Will Israel rise to their calling, or will they be trapped...

As we prepare for what's to come at Southern Hills and we patiently anticipate moving into our new auditorium, Pastor Josh has final moving instructions for us taken from Deuteronomy chapter 8. These lessons we've learned all the way back from Moses is not only applicable for a physical move into a new building or home, but also into a new stage or season of life. So, no matter where you find yourself at, this message is for you. Tune in to hear about practical instructions that you can apply in any season of life!

Today's message comes from our new discipleship pastor on staff Pastor Brian! The message God shared through him was truly a moving and powerful one, tune in to hear more about how God's Word, specifically the Psalms, give us the words to share with God when we don't have the words ourselves. What an encouragement and breathe of relief it is to know that God can handle ANYTHING we throw at Him and how David gives us the perfect examples of just how real we can get in our prayers to God!
