This message dives into Luke 15 and reframes the Prodigal Son by putting the spotlight on the Father’s house—how churches cultivate a spirit of return that welcomes sons and daughters home. Pastor shares three heartbeat themes: reaching the lost, equipping pastors, and loving the local church. You’ll hear why expectation matters (the Father watching the road and preparing the fatted calf), how serving and generosity build a home that prodigals can return to, and what celebration looks like when people come back to God.

What you’ll learn:

Why the local church is God’s “lost & found” for the world (Luke 15: the lost coin, lost sheep, and lost son)

The shift from “my house” to His house—and how that reshapes culture

How an expectant heart prepares the house (fatted calf = preparation)

The difference between repentance and bringing old lifestyles into the Father’s house

Why serving, small groups, and generosity create space for salvation, healing, and celebration

The older brother mindset vs. grace that doesn’t keep score

Real-life impact: when someone flushes a bag of drugs because they’re done with the pigpen, heaven throws a party

If you’re praying for a prodigal—or you are one—this message will help you see how the Father runs to meet us and why the church must be ready every Sunday with expectation, service, and celebration.

Are you living by the world’s money rules—or God’s? In this message, we unpack Jesus’ warning: “You can’t serve God and mammon” (Matthew 6:24). You’ll see why mammon is a spiritual rival, how tithing and generosity break its grip, and what it means to store treasure in heaven (Matt 6:19–21). We’ll look at Malachi 3:10 (“Test Me in this”), the widow’s offering, and Cornelius’ gifts—clear signs that God sees sacrificial giving and shapes our hearts through it.
You’ll learn: how to put God first in your finances, practical steps to walk in Kingdom peace, and how giving re-aims your heart toward eternal things.

What if the first 10% could reorder the other 90?

Today we unpack the heart behind tithing—why God asks for the first and not the leftovers, what “Test Me” (Malachi 3:10) really means, and how generosity moves us from fear to freedom. This isn’t about guilt or “tipping God.” It’s about trust, alignment, and putting Him first in every part of life.

You’ll learn:

The difference between a tithe and an offering

Why the first matters to God (principle of priority)

How generosity breaks the grip of fear & scarcity

What the storehouse is (and why it matters for impact)

Scriptures mentioned: Malachi 3:10; Proverbs 3:9–10; Matthew 6:33; 2 Corinthians 9:6–8.
