Jesus Culture Sacramento Message of the Week

Pastor Banning reminds us that God desires an acceptable offering. One that is our first and our best, not an afterthought. True worship requires sacrifice, often costing us our comfort, time, or resources. It is sacrificial and often inconvenient by nature, but God is worthy of our highest priority and wholehearted surrender.

Pastor Becky Johnson preaches from 1 Corinthians 5. Paul wasn’t primarily concerned with the sin. He was concerned with the silence. What does it look like when a church mistakes tolerance for grace, and what does real love, correction, and accountability look like in a family that belongs to each other?

Pastor Banning teaches that God is inviting us into partnership with His heart, believing for salvations not only among those we know but also those we don’t. As we allow our hearts to be moved by what moves Him, we step into true compassion, a deep, gut-wrenching response that leads us to prayer and action. Every move of God in history has come through people who carried what was on His heart, and He is still inviting us to do the same.

This week, Pastor Michael Brodeur shares on the power of unity and how God calls us to celebrate our differences while walking together in oneness. Even with individual giftings, we can do harm when we push our own agenda instead of building according to God’s plan.

Lyle Phillips, lead pastor of Legacy Nashville, reminds us that we were created to live in continual encounter with God. As we seek His face above everything else and bring our desires to Him in prayer, we discover that God isn’t distant. He invites us to ask, pursue, and expect to find Him. When we prioritize His presence, every other desire begins to find its proper place.
