This series explores the power of truth as the foundation for anything meant to endure—relationships, leadership, faith, and legacy. Each message challenges the tendency to avoid, delay, or reshape truth for comfort or convenience, and instead calls for courage, clarity, and integrity. Through practical and spiritual application, the series reveals that lasting impact is never built on half-truths, silence, or avoidance—but on honesty that is spoken, received, and lived out, even when it costs something.
Series Breakdown
Tell People the Truth Truth must be spoken clearly and lovingly—because silence and deception eventually undermine trust and growth.
Don’t Reject the Truth Truth only works if it is received. Resisting correction or conviction leads to collapse, not strength.
More About the Truth Truth is not just information—it’s alignment. This message unpacks how truth shapes character, decisions, and direction over time.
Tell the Truth About Your Future You cannot move forward honestly if you lie to yourself about where you are going. Lasting futures require truthful self-assessment and obedience.
Series Big Idea
You cannot build something that lasts if truth is avoided, delayed, or selectively applied—even when telling the truth costs you influence, comfort, or position.
This series walks through Matthew 5 as Pastor Rick challenges us to confront the areas of our lives where we avoid truth—our attitudes, private struggles, relationships, and identity. Each message reveals that spiritual growth and a stable future begin not with outward behavior, but with honest self-examination and alignment with what Jesus says about who we are and how we should live.
Pastor Rick will guide us through a powerful series focused on four core life themes—Marriage & Relationships, Money, Worship, and Personal Views—ending with a New Year’s Eve message preparing us for 2026. Each conversation is meant to help us reflect, ask better questions, and seek God’s wisdom for the next season of life.
This five-part series explores how our thinking, lifestyle, culture, and willingness to face truth all determine the outcomes we experience in life. Through the life of Abraham, Pastor Rick reveals practical steps to break patterns, renew faith, and walk in God’s promises.
