Building anything that matters–faith, family, or purpose–always gets messy. When life feels shaky, Jesus reminds us that these are the very moments our faith can speak the loudest. This week we look at how to build a faith that bears witness, even when life gets hard.

God isn’t just helping us build our own lives–he’s building his Church. In today’s Gospel, Jesus clears out the clutter to make space for what’s sacred. He’s inviting us to do the same: to put him back at the center and to invest in what lasts. When we give, serve, and invest in our local church, we’re not just “keeping the lights on.” We’re joining God in creating a place where people can encounter hope and light for generations to come.

Life is short, but what we build with it doesn’t have to be. On All Souls Day, we’re reminded that love–not titles, money, or accomplishments–is what endures. This week we explore what it means to live with the end in mind and invest in the kind of legacy that outlives us.

We often try to build our lives on performance and comparison–doing enough, looking good enough, proving we’re better than someone else. Jesus says there’s a better foundation: humility. This week we explore how an honest, open posture before God reshapes us and why serving others lays the bricks of a life God can use.

We’re all building something–careers, families, reputations, lives. But what if we’re pouring our time and energy into things that won’t last? This new series invites us to look at the foundation we’re laying and the legacy we’re leaving. In this first week, we see even Moses couldn’t do it alone. Victory came only when friends stepped in to hold him up. If we want to build a life that matters, we can’t build it solo. God designed us to hold one another up, and to let others hold us up, too.

Disappointment can quietly pull us away from trust and into frustration and scorekeeping with God. In this message, we look at Jesus’ call to use the faith we already have and keep trusting--even when life feels hard and prayers seem unanswered.
