When we keep our eyes fixed on Christ and trust Him fully, we discover the purpose and destiny God prepared for us from the beginning.</p><p>#ResurrectionSunday #HeIsRisen #WakeUpSleeper #FaithInJesus #GoodHopeChurch #RunTheRace #FollowChrist #EasterMessage</p><p><b>Sermon Notes:</b> <a href='https://link.goodhope.ag/easter-2026-mj'>https://link.goodhope.ag/easter-2026-mj</a></p><p>Giving Information: <a href='https://goodhope.ag/giving'>https://goodhope.ag/giving</a></p><p>STAY CONNECTED<br/>Youtube: <a href='https://youtube.com/GoodHopeChurch'>https://youtube.com/GoodHopeChurch</a><br/>Instagram: <a href='http://instagram.com/goodhopemn'>http://instagram.com/goodhopemn</a><br/>Facebook: <a href='http://fb.com/goodhopemn'>http://fb.com/goodhopemn</a> </p>]]></content:encoded>

The Bible shows that God often speaks and moves in quiet and subtle ways rather than dramatic ones. When our lives are too fast and too full, we may miss those moments. By slowing down and becoming more aware of what God is doing, we can begin to see His presence in everyday situations.</p><p>#GoodHopeChurch #Faith #WalkByFaith #EyesOfFaith #ChristianLiving #JesusChangesEverything #GrowInFaith</p><p><b>Sermon Notes:</b> <a href='https://link.goodhope.ag/faith-6-mj'>https://link.goodhope.ag/faith-6-mj</a></p><p>Giving Information: <a href='https://goodhope.ag/giving'>https://goodhope.ag/giving</a></p><p>STAY CONNECTED<br/>Youtube: <a href='https://youtube.com/GoodHopeChurch'>https://youtube.com/GoodHopeChurch</a><br/>Instagram: <a href='http://instagram.com/goodhopemn'>http://instagram.com/goodhopemn</a><br/>Facebook: <a href='http://fb.com/goodhopemn'>http://fb.com/goodhopemn</a> </p>]]></content:encoded>

When we nourish our faith with God’s Word, prayer, fasting, and spiritual rest, we build the strength needed to endure life’s challenges and walk confidently with God.</p><p>#GoodHopeChurch #Faith #WalkByFaith #TrustGod #ChristianFaith #FaithStrength #GrowInFaith</p><p><b>Sermon Notes:</b> <a href='https://link.goodhope.ag/faith-4-mj'>https://link.goodhope.ag/faith-4-mj</a></p><p>Giving Information: <a href='https://goodhope.ag/giving'>https://goodhope.ag/giving</a></p><p>STAY CONNECTED<br/>Youtube: <a href='https://youtube.com/GoodHopeChurch'>https://youtube.com/GoodHopeChurch</a><br/>Instagram: <a href='http://instagram.com/goodhopemn'>http://instagram.com/goodhopemn</a><br/>Facebook: <a href='http://fb.com/goodhopemn'>http://fb.com/goodhopemn</a> </p>]]></content:encoded>

Faith is not just how we start our journey with Christ, it is how we continue it every single day. From salvation to forgiveness to personal growth, everything in the Christian life flows from believing God’s Word.</p><p>Pastor Mike Newcomb reminds us that even mustard seed faith can accomplish incredible things, but we are called to grow beyond that. Faith shapes our identity, just as Abram became Abraham by believing what God declared over him before he ever saw it fulfilled. Whether it is healing, freedom, restoration in marriage, or breakthrough in finances, the call is the same: believe Him when He speaks. Where is God asking you to walk by faith right now?</p><p>#GoodHopeChurch #WeWalkByFaith #FaithJourney #TrustGod #ChristianLiving #FaithOverFear #GrowInFaith #JesusChangesEverything</p><p>Giving Information: <a href='https://goodhope.ag/giving'>https://goodhope.ag/giving</a></p><p><b>STAY CONNECTED</b><br/>Youtube: <a href='https://youtube.com/GoodHopeChurch'>https://youtube.com/GoodHopeChurch</a><br/>Instagram: <a href='http://instagram.com/goodhopemn'>http://instagram.com/goodhopemn</a><br/>Facebook: <a href='http://fb.com/goodhopemn'>http://fb.com/goodhopemn</a> </p>]]></content:encoded>

    <description><![CDATA[<p>&quot;The Road to Redemption&quot; is a powerful sermon series exploring God’s plan for salvation, and this is just the beginning! In Part 1, we focus on John the Baptist, the messenger sent to prepare the way for Jesus. His message was urgent and clear: Repent!—turn your heart back to God—and Be Baptized! as a public sign of transformation. John lived outside the norms of society, yet he was deeply in tune with God’s Spirit, calling people to genuine faith rather than empty religion.<br/><br/>John’s mission wasn’t about himself but about pointing people to Jesus.

John lived outside the norms of society, yet he was deeply in tune with God’s Spirit, calling people to genuine faith rather than empty religion.<br/><br/>John’s mission wasn’t about himself but about pointing people to Jesus.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>Pastor Mike Newcomb&apos;s sermon challenges the idea that God &quot;needs&quot; our money. Instead, Jesus desires our hearts, calling us to surrender every aspect of our lives—including our finances. Many people struggle with &quot;Spiritual Compartment Syndrome,&quot; where they give Christ their afterlife but resist giving Him control over their thought life, time, and money. However, true spiritual formation begins with Christ in us, shaping our thinking and ultimately transforming our behavior. When we embrace this, financial stewardship becomes an act of worship rather than obligation.<br/><br/>Biblical principles show that honoring God with our finances brings His grace and favor, making generosity a win-win for both the giver and the church. At Good Hope Church, &quot;Spirit-Led Giving&quot; encourages believers to seek God&apos;s guidance rather than feel pressured. The goal is not just to fund a church but to shift from a consumer mindset to a commitment to the cause of Christ.

    <itunes:summary><![CDATA[In I Love You Lord, But… Part 1, Pastor Mike Stevens challenges believers to examine the "buts" that hinder full surrender to God. Many fear that saying "yes" to God means giving up comfort, control, or even moving to Africa! But Jesus’ call to "Follow Me" is both a great challenge and an even greater promise. Through powerful scriptures like Matthew 10:38-39 and Luke 9:23-24, Pastor Mike reminds us that Jesus doesn’t just take—He gives a new and improved life now and eternal life to come.

But Jesus’ call to &quot;Follow Me&quot; is both a great challenge and an even greater promise. Through powerful scriptures like Matthew 10:38-39 and Luke 9:23-24, Pastor Mike reminds us that Jesus doesn’t just take—He gives a new and improved life now and eternal life to come.<br/><br/>The message also distinguishes between truly following Jesus and being burdened by toxic religion. Bad religion destroys, but Jesus leads to life! Like Peter, who jumped out of the boat too soon (John 21), we must learn to follow God&apos;s timing. In the end, God’s expectations are not unreasonable—He calls us to trust Him, and whatever He asks will ultimately be worth it. If He does call you to Africa, you’ll love Africa!<br/><br/>🔥 #ILoveYouLord #FollowMe #NoMoreExcuses #JesusIsWorthIt #GodsPromises #FaithOverFear<br/><br/></p><p><b>[ </b><a href='https://youtu.be/eHJi-_p1aMg'><b>Video Version</b></a><b> ] / [ </b><a href='https://link.goodhope.ag/love-you-lord-1'><b>Sermon Notes</b></a><b> ]</b><br/><br/>STAY CONNECTED<br/>Sermon Podcast: https://sermons.goodhope.ag<br/>Instagram: http://instagram.com/goodhopemn<br/>Facebook: http://fb.com/goodhopemn </p>]]></description>

He explains that our spiritual journey has stages: the initial steps create something beautiful, the next stages protect it, and the final stages reveal its fruits. Pastor Kayla encourages believers to stay the course even when the journey feels tough, looking beyond immediate challenges to a heavenly reward. Drawing on verses from James, Hebrews, and Timothy, he emphasizes the importance of maintaining a &quot;heavenly perspective&quot; by keeping our eyes on the finish line—eternity with Christ.<br/><br/>Pastor Kayla also warns about persevering in the wrong way, using the church in Ephesus as an example from Revelation 2:1-5. While the Ephesians held fast in action, they lost the love they had at first, demonstrating the importance of persevering with both heart and action. He concludes with Paul’s example from 2 Timothy, urging us to finish strong in faith and love.<br/><br/>#PersevereWithPurpose #SacredJourney #HeavenlyPerspective #FinishStrong #KeepTheFaith<br/><br/><b>[ </b><a href='https://youtu.be/s7FiZcpR7DI'><b>Video Version</b></a><b> ] / [ </b><a href='https://link.goodhope.ag/sacred-5'><b>Sermon Notes</b></a><b> ]<br/>[ </b><a href='https://goodhope.ag/get-connected/devotions/'><b>Daily Devotions with Pastor Daniel</b></a><b> ]</b><br/><br/>STAY CONNECTED<br/>Daily Devotionals with Pastor Daniel: http://goodhope.ag/devotions<br/>Sermon Podcast: https://sermons.goodhope.ag<br/>Instagram: http://instagram.com/goodhopemn<br/>Facebook: http://fb.com/goodhopemn </p>]]></description>

    <description><![CDATA[<p>In Your Sacred Journey, Part 5, Pastor Daniel Stevens shares a powerful message about perseverance in our walk with Christ, using 2 Peter 1:3-9 as a foundation. He explains that our spiritual journey has stages: the initial steps create something beautiful, the next stages protect it, and the final stages reveal its fruits. Pastor Daniel encourages believers to stay the course even when the journey feels tough, looking beyond immediate challenges to a heavenly reward. Drawing on verses from James, Hebrews, and Timothy, he emphasizes the importance of maintaining a &quot;heavenly perspective&quot; by keeping our eyes on the finish line—eternity with Christ.<br/><br/>Pastor Daniel also warns about persevering in the wrong way, using the church in Ephesus as an example from Revelation 2:1-5. While the Ephesians held fast in action, they lost the love they had at first, demonstrating the importance of persevering with both heart and action. He concludes with Paul’s example from 2 Timothy, urging us to finish strong in faith and love.<br/><br/>#PersevereWithPurpose #SacredJourney #HeavenlyPerspective #FinishStrong #KeepTheFaith<br/><br/><b>[ </b><a href='https://youtu.be/s7FiZcpR7DI'><b>Video Version</b></a><b> ] / [ </b><a href='https://link.goodhope.ag/sacred-5'><b>Sermon Notes</b></a><b> ]<br/>[ </b><a href='https://goodhope.ag/get-connected/devotions/'><b>Daily Devotions with Pastor Daniel</b></a><b> ]</b><br/><br/>STAY CONNECTED<br/>Daily Devotionals with Pastor Daniel: http://goodhope.ag/devotions<br/>Sermon Podcast: https://sermons.goodhope.ag<br/>Instagram: http://instagram.com/goodhopemn<br/>Facebook: http://fb.com/goodhopemn </p>]]></description>

Pastor Daniel encourages empowering believers to take action by giving them meaningful tasks, investing in ministries that resonate with them, and supporting multi-site ministries, like those at Good Hope Church. He underscores the need for collective efforts, drawing from Exodus 17:8-13, where Moses, Aaron, and Hur work together to help Joshua win the battle—showing that everyone plays a role in advancing God’s Kingdom.<br/><br/>Pastor Daniel challenges listeners to set both faith-based outcome goals (e.g., being a better father, helping others find Christ) and practical input goals (e.g., daily prayer, intentional acts of love). He likens this to abiding in Christ as seen in John 15:5, where small, consistent actions lead to fruitful outcomes. The key to growth, he argues, lies in receiving more of Christ and the Holy Spirit into our lives.<br/><br/>#GoodHopeVision #KingdomGoals #FaithInAction #EmpowermentModel #SpiritLed #AbideInChrist #PastorDanielSermon #DreamsAndGoals #KingdomInvestments #InputGoals #BetterHusband #BetterFather<br/><br/><b>[ </b><a href='https://youtu.be/8Edu4WCkqko'><b>Video Version</b></a><b> ] / [ </b><a href='https://link.goodhope.ag/vision24-4'><b>Sermon Notes</b></a><b> ]<br/>[ </b><a href='https://goodhope.ag/get-connected/devotions/'><b>Daily Devotions with Pastor Daniel</b></a><b> ]</b><br/><br/>STAY CONNECTED<br/>Daily Devotionals with Pastor Daniel: http://goodhope.ag/devotions<br/>Sermon Podcast: https://sermons.goodhope.ag<br/>Instagram: http://instagram.com/goodhopemn<br/>Facebook: http://fb.com/goodhopemn </p>]]></description>

Pastor Mike encourages empowering believers to take action by giving them meaningful tasks, investing in ministries that resonate with them, and supporting multi-site ministries, like those at Good Hope Church. He underscores the need for collective efforts, drawing from Exodus 17:8-13, where Moses, Aaron, and Hur work together to help Joshua win the battle—showing that everyone plays a role in advancing God’s Kingdom.<br/><br/>Pastor Mike challenges listeners to set both faith-based outcome goals (e.g., being a better father, helping others find Christ) and practical input goals (e.g., daily prayer, intentional acts of love). He likens this to abiding in Christ as seen in John 15:5, where small, consistent actions lead to fruitful outcomes. The key to growth, he argues, lies in receiving more of Christ and the Holy Spirit into our lives.<br/><br/>#GoodHopeVision #KingdomGoals #FaithInAction #EmpowermentModel #SpiritLed #AbideInChrist #PastorMikeSermon #DreamsAndGoals #KingdomInvestments #InputGoals #BetterHusband #BetterFather<br/><br/><b>[ </b><a href='https://youtu.be/8Edu4WCkqko'><b>Video Version</b></a><b> ] / [ </b><a href='https://link.goodhope.ag/vision24-4'><b>Sermon Notes</b></a><b> ]<br/>[ </b><a href='https://goodhope.ag/get-connected/devotions/'><b>Daily Devotions with Pastor Daniel</b></a><b> ]</b><br/><br/>STAY CONNECTED<br/>Daily Devotionals with Pastor Daniel: http://goodhope.ag/devotions<br/>Sermon Podcast: https://sermons.goodhope.ag<br/>Instagram: http://instagram.com/goodhopemn<br/>Facebook: http://fb.com/goodhopemn </p>]]></content:encoded>

The core vision statement—Reach Up, Rise Up, Reach Out—defines Good Hope Church’s mission. Pastor Mike shares his personal journey, recalling how he initially didn’t care about church traditions but was driven to help others know Christ for both eternity and this life. He challenges the church to avoid &quot;dead or toxic religion&quot; and instead build a real relationship with God.<br/><br/>In this first part, Pastor Mike focuses on Reach Up, which emphasizes connecting with God through prayer, worship, and the Word. He warns of the dangers of being lost without God, both outside and inside the church. He highlights that through grace, everyone can build a real relationship with God, regardless of their past. The message closes with an invitation to open the door to a relationship with Jesus.<br/><br/>#ReachUp #GoodHopeVision #RealRelationshipWithGod #RiseUpReachOut #PastorMike #GraceOfGod #ChurchVision #SpiritualGrowth #FaithJourney<br/><br/><b>[ </b><a href='https://youtu.be/D0wRYenTD_k'><b>Video Version</b></a><b> ] / [ </b><a href='https://link.goodhope.ag/vision24-1'><b>Sermon Notes</b></a><b> ]<br/>[ </b><a href='https://goodhope.ag/get-connected/devotions/'><b>Daily Devotions with Pastor Daniel</b></a><b> ]</b><br/><br/>STAY CONNECTED<br/>Daily Devotionals with Pastor Daniel: http://goodhope.ag/devotions<br/>Sermon Podcast: https://sermons.goodhope.ag<br/>Instagram: http://instagram.com/goodhopemn<br/>Facebook: http://fb.com/goodhopemn </p>]]></description>

Pastor Daniel emphasizes that true surrender means being led by God&apos;s will rather than personal desires or societal pressures. He also introduces a mini-series within the sermon series, focusing on &quot;Surrender,&quot; &quot;Kingdom Mindset,&quot; and &quot;Prosperity,&quot; in that specific order.<br/><br/>Using the story of the rich young ruler in Mark 10:17-23, Pastor Daniel illustrates the difference between a consumer mindset and genuine surrender. He challenges believers to embrace the teachings of Mark 8:34-36, underscoring that true freedom and joy come from surrendering to Christ. Citing Paul the Apostle&apos;s example in Philippians 3:4-14, he demonstrates that giving up worldly gains for the sake of Christ leads to greater, eternal rewards. Pastor Daniel concludes by urging the congregation to pray for the faith to surrender, just as Jesus did in Luke 22:42.<br/><br/>#Surrender #SpiritLedLife #Faith #BibleStudy #ChristianLiving #Gospel #SurrenderToGod #KingdomMindset #Prosperity #FreedomInChrist<br/><br/><b>[ </b><a href='https://youtu.be/UBx6XDVizjM'><b>Video Version</b></a><b> ] / [ </b><a href='https://link.goodhope.ag/spirit-led-6'><b>Sermon Notes</b></a><b> ]<br/>[ </b><a href='https://goodhope.ag/get-connected/devotions/'><b>Daily Devotions with Pastor Daniel</b></a><b> ]</b><br/><br/>STAY CONNECTED<br/>Daily Devotionals with Pastor Daniel: http://goodhope.ag/devotions<br/>Sermon Podcast: https://sermons.goodhope.ag<br/>Instagram: http://instagram.com/goodhopemn<br/>Facebook: http://fb.com/goodhopemn</p>]]></description>

Pastor Mike emphasizes that true surrender means being led by God&apos;s will rather than personal desires or societal pressures. He also introduces a mini-series within the sermon series, focusing on &quot;Surrender,&quot; &quot;Kingdom Mindset,&quot; and &quot;Prosperity,&quot; in that specific order.<br/><br/>Using the story of the rich young ruler in Mark 10:17-23, Pastor Mike illustrates the difference between a consumer mindset and genuine surrender. He challenges believers to embrace the teachings of Mark 8:34-36, underscoring that true freedom and joy come from surrendering to Christ. Citing Paul the Apostle&apos;s example in Philippians 3:4-14, he demonstrates that giving up worldly gains for the sake of Christ leads to greater, eternal rewards.

Referencing John 15:1-8, Pastor Daniel discusses the importance of remaining in Christ, noting that while breakthroughs are significant, maintaining a daily connection through abiding is crucial. He urges believers to actively seek God daily, improving their listening skills in prayer and finding personal ways to connect with God.<br/><br/>Pastor Daniel provides four common ways to connect with God: reading the Bible, praying, worshipping, and serving. He encourages finding individual methods within these practices, such as pairing Bible reading with coffee or listening to an audio Bible while running. Pastor Daniel also addresses potential blocks in connecting with God, like bitterness, chronic sin, and apathy, and shares personal anecdotes to illustrate overcoming these barriers. Ultimately, he stresses the importance of consistently working on one&apos;s relationship with God to experience true spiritual growth.<br/><br/>#ConnectWithGod #SpiritualGrowth #DailyWalkWithGod #AbideInChrist #ReachUpRiseUpReachOut #FaithJourney #PastorDanielStevens<br/><br/><b>[ </b><a href='https://youtu.be/j3X-Csf2pl8'><b>Video Version</b></a><b> ] / [ </b><a href='https://link.goodhope.ag/spirit-led-5'><b>Sermon Notes</b></a><b> ]<br/>[ </b><a href='https://goodhope.ag/devotions'><b>Daily Devotions with Pastor Daniel</b></a><b> ]</b><br/><br/>STAY CONNECTED<br/>Daily Devotionals with Pastor Daniel: http://goodhope.ag/devotions<br/>Sermon Podcast: https://sermons.goodhope.ag<br/>Instagram: http://instagram.com/goodhopemn<br/>Facebook: http://fb.com/goodhopemn</p>]]></description>

    <description><![CDATA[<p>In &quot;The Spirit Led Life: Part 3,&quot; Pastor Daniel Stevens delves into the critical quality of faith for living a Spirit-led life. Building on last week&apos;s theme of hearing from God, he explores Matthew 14:22-33, where Jesus walks on water and Peter steps out of the boat in faith. Pastor Stevens emphasizes the importance of replenishing our spiritual energy by spending time with God, as it’s hard to maintain faith when we are spiritually dry. He points out that faith is not just a vague belief but is specifically about who we place our faith in—God. Just as Peter trusted Jesus and walked on water, we are encouraged to find what God is doing and believe in His promises.<br/><br/>Pastor Daniel reminds us that faith involves stepping out and taking risks, much like Peter did, instead of staying in the boat with the other disciples. He acknowledges the obstacles and &quot;giants in the land&quot; that challenge our faith but encourages us to persevere, as overcoming these obstacles is a part of our faith journey. The sermon concludes with a call to action: believe God for something today, whether big or small, and trust in His promises.

    <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In &quot;The Spirit Led Life: Part 3,&quot; Pastor Daniel Stevens delves into the critical quality of faith for living a Spirit-led life. Building on last week&apos;s theme of hearing from God, he explores Matthew 14:22-33, where Jesus walks on water and Peter steps out of the boat in faith. Pastor Stevens emphasizes the importance of replenishing our spiritual energy by spending time with God, as it’s hard to maintain faith when we are spiritually dry. He points out that faith is not just a vague belief but is specifically about who we place our faith in—God. Just as Peter trusted Jesus and walked on water, we are encouraged to find what God is doing and believe in His promises.<br/><br/>Pastor Daniel reminds us that faith involves stepping out and taking risks, much like Peter did, instead of staying in the boat with the other disciples. He acknowledges the obstacles and &quot;giants in the land&quot; that challenge our faith but encourages us to persevere, as overcoming these obstacles is a part of our faith journey. The sermon concludes with a call to action: believe God for something today, whether big or small, and trust in His promises. For those who have been hurt or disappointed in their faith journey, Pastor Daniel offers empathy and encouragement, urging them to keep going, as God honors and loves their faith.

Drawing from Romans 8:1-17 and rich personal anecdotes, Pastor Mike provides practical guidance on how to discern God&apos;s voice in our daily lives.<br/><br/>In this sermon, Pastor Daniel emphasizes the importance of learning to listen for God&apos;s voice rather than trying to force communication. He shares his story of recognizing dreams from God and challenges us to avoid common mistakes, such as assuming we can&apos;t hear from God, focusing on negatives, being impatient, mistaking emotions for the Spirit’s leading, mixing the Spirit’s guidance with human ideas, and taking the path of least resistance. Instead, Pastor Daniel  advises us to always evaluate against Biblical truth, engage in intentional prayer, fasting, Spirit-led giving, and to be obedient quickly. He encourages us to pray and seek wisdom from God, believing in His promise to guide us.<br/><br/>Thank you for watching.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>In 1996, Drew surrendered his sexuality to the Lordship of Christ, leaving behind a homosexual relationship.  Drew chose to trust Christ with his future, believing that the Word of God was trustworthy and that Christ would be faithful to give him a life worth living outside of a homosexual identity or relationship.  This surrender began a process of transformation and healing confronting the issues of same-sex attraction and overall relational dysfunction in his life. <br/><br/>Drew began full-time ministry to the sexually and relationally broken in 2004, joining the staff of Portland Fellowship, a para-church discipleship ministry in Portland, OR.  Drew spent ten years in ministry there, ending his time as the Assistant Director to found A Living Letter Ministries in 2015. <br/><br/>Drew’s life and testimony stand in stark contrast to the current cultural narrative about sexual identity, demonstrating instead what Christ can do for a sexually broken life submitted to His Lordship. With the current shifts in ideology regarding sexuality, identity, gender, and God’s transformative power, Drew&apos;s ministry, experience, and insight stand as a redemptive voice of truth to the body of Christ.<br/><br/>Drew is a graduate of Multnomah Bible College, holding a Bachelor&apos;s Degree in Ministry and Leadership. In addition to being the Founder and Director of A Living Letter Ministries, Drew serves as a Teaching and Counseling Pastor at Living Waters Church in Medford, OR.  Drew released his first book, Are We There Yet? in 2018, adding author to his list of accomplishments. <br/><br/>Of all the roles and titles he carries, his most prized titles are that of husband and father.  Drew and his wife Suzanne have been married since 2004 and together they have the joy of raising their three daughters. <br/><br/>Find out more about Drew and his ministry at his website:<br/>https://alivingletter.org<br/><br/>#drewberryessa #goodhopemn #alivingletter<br/><br/>STAY CONNECTED TO GOOD HOPE<br/>Daily Devotionals with Pastor Mike: http://goodhope.ag/devotions<br/>Chasing Squirrels Podcast: http://squirrels.goodhope.ag<br/>Sermon Podcast: https://sermons.goodhope.ag<br/>Instagram: http://instagram.com/goodhopemn<br/>Facebook: http://fb.com/goodhopemn</p>]]></description>
