Joy that lasts is not based on feelings. It is based on a faithful God.

In this encouraging Christmas-season message, John Gunter invites us to reflect on what truly brings joy. From John 15 and Romans 8 to Isaiah 35, we are reminded that joy is not the absence of sorrow. It is the presence of Christ. Real joy is rooted in obedience, endurance, and confidence that nothing can separate us from the love of God.

Key Takeaways:

• Fleeting happiness rises and falls with circumstances
• Enduring joy is found in walking closely with Christ
• Obedience leads to alignment, and alignment leads to joy

📖 Scripture Focus: John 15:9–11, Romans 8:38–39, Psalm 16:11, Isaiah 35:1–10

When Jesus had every right to demand, He chose to kneel and serve.

In this closing message of the Made to Serve series, John Gunter teaches from John 13, reminding us that a gospel-shaped life looks like a towel and a basin, not a title and a throne. If you want to reflect Jesus, you do not wait to be asked. You simply serve where you are. This message calls the church to return to the example of our Lord, who made humility the mark of greatness.

Key Takeaways:

• Serving others is not beneath us. It is the heart of Christ
• Humility is not thinking less of yourself. It is thinking of yourself less
• We each have a place to serve. Start where you are and watch what God does

What does it look like to live a life shaped by the gospel, not just saved by it?

In this first message of the Made to Serve series, John Gunter preaches from Philippians 1 and 2, calling the church to unity, humility, and Christlike service. This message challenges listeners to look beyond personal comfort and embrace the mindset of Jesus, who emptied himself, became a servant, and gave his life as an example for us to follow.

Key Takeaways:

• Unity is not about agreeing on everything. It is about agreeing on the most important thing
• Humility lifts others up instead of lifting yourself up
• A gospel-shaped life reflects Jesus in relationships, service, and sacrifice
