Jesus Crosses a Racial Barrier | John 4
This week's message from Pastor J.D. and Pastor Bryan will help us cultivate a deeper understanding from John 4 of the concept of reconciliation—something that our world desperately needs. As the body of Christ, what we have in common is profound and beautiful, and ought to propel us toward unity.

The Road to Road to Ethnic Unity
While we live in a time of much racial division and strife, we shouldn’t forget that Jesus did too. In this week’s message, Pastor Bryan invites us to reflect on a well-known story in John 4 where Jesus' encounter with a Samaritan woman left her forever changed—and was a powerful display of what it looks like to take the gospel across ethnic lines. Ultimately, only by aligning ourselves with Jesus' mission will we have any hope of accomplishing true ethnic unity. Message originally given at the Summit Church in Raleigh, NC on 5/15/23.

The Anatomy of Integrity | Psalm 101

Lord Jesus Poppin' Bottles
In this message from John 2, Pastor Bryan sheds light on the first of Jesus’ signs in this Gospel: the turning of water into wine at a wedding in Cana. This sign is indeed miraculous, but we shouldn’t miss the greater reality that it points us to—the person of Jesus and the coming of his kingdom. Though the world may offer satisfaction through the "old wine" of money or status, it is only the "new wine" of a relationship with Jesus that brings true satisfaction and lasting joy.
Originally Preached at Summit Church on Sunday Dec 18th.
