Having an advocate who truly knows and understands makes all the difference. Whether it's in our daily lives, in court, or even in our faith, knowing that those who speak for us also understand us, and know what we need is not a luxury, it's essential! This morning we think about what it means for us to have the ultimate advocate -- Jesus, who became a man, and is our great high priest. Join us as we think about this wonderful truth together.

In this New Year's vision message, Pastor Luke casts a biblical vision for three-dimensional church growth in 2026. Drawing from Ephesians 4:15-16 and Acts 2:41-47, he shows how healthy churches grow numerically (reaching new people with the gospel), spiritually (believers becoming more like Christ), and relationally (deepening genuine community). But this isn't just aspirational. The sermon includes three concrete "this week" assignments that move from inspiration to implementation. You'll learn how to pray specifically for those far from God, establish daily rhythms of Bible reading and prayer, and practice hospitality that builds real relationships. The big idea: Biblical growth is not one thing measured three ways. It is one life expressed in three dimensions. When all three are present, growth becomes joyful, sustainable, and God-honoring.
