Pastor Tony Liuzzo (Lead Pastor) - 2 Timothy 3:14-17

In a world full of distractions and detours, God’s Word calls us to one thing: continue. In this episode, we dive into 2 Timothy 3:14–17, where Paul urges believers to stay the course — to keep living the truth, learning the Scriptures, and leading others in faith. Whether you're tired, uncertain, or just need a push, this will challenge you. The mission isn’t over — so don’t quit now. Just do it.

Pastor Tony Liuzzo (Lead Pastor) - John 2 (John 1:4; 2:1-21; 10:10; 15:11; Exodus 30:19-21; Leviticus 11:32; Titus 3:5; Revelation 7:14; 1 Corinthians 6:19-20)

The beginning of the public ministry of Jesus was not what you would expect. John chapter two does not begin with a giant crowd, a public miracle, or a deep message from Jesus. It begins with John telling us the heart and mission of Jesus, but in an unexpected way. It begins at a party...a wedding celebration with friends and family. This story usually gets told from the perspective of the miracle of turning the water into wine. Yes, this is definitely a miracle, but the reason for this miracle is the real message. Before Jesus confronts the disorder of the temple worship, He teaches the disciples a powerful message about His purpose and mission. Then, Jesus steps into a crowd and confronts some issues in a way that they would never forget.

Have you ever experienced something that completely threw you off because it was so different from what you expected? When we read the Gospels, it's easy to wonder why so many people rejected Jesus. Why didn’t they recognize Him as the Messiah and worship Him? The truth is—everything about Jesus was unexpected. From the way He entered the world—born to poor parents and laid in a manger—to the way He loved and forgave sinners, outcasts, and even enemies. The Gospel of John is especially unique because it highlights the surprising, counter-cultural things Jesus said and did. It shows us a Savior who pursued personal relationships with the most unlikely people. Through John’s account, we’re invited to take a journey and experience the unexpected grace and love of Jesus—a love that still transforms lives today.

Dave Steger (FBC Deacon) - ​​​​​​​Psalm 148 (Psalm 148:1-14; 1 Samuel 2:1-10; Luke 1:46-55; Revelation 5:13)

In this lesson, we explore the sweeping call to praise found in Psalm 148 and how it fits into the grand finale of the book of Psalms. As part of the final collection (Psalms 107–150), Psalm 148 invites all creation—heavenly and earthly—to join in celebrating the faithfulness of God. This isn’t just poetic worship—it’s a powerful declaration that God’s covenant promises are being fulfilled. Join us as we unpack how this Psalm, positioned near the end of Israel’s songbook, echoes a deep hope for restoration and reminds us that everything in creation is called to respond to God’s goodness with praise.

Ever feel like figuring out God’s will is like trying to solve a giant mysterious puzzle? The good news is—it’s not that complicated. God’s will isn’t a secret destination you have to unlock with the perfect job, relationship, or five-year plan. It’s a daily journey of walking with Him, guided by His Word and shaped by small, faithful steps. In this message, we dive into how God reveals His will as we obey what He’s already shown us, why we can’t follow both the world’s ways and God’s way, and how choosing Him leads to a life that actually brings purpose and satisfaction.

Dave Steger (FBC Deacon) - ​​​​​​​Psalm 22 (Psalm 22:1-31; Matthew 27:41-43 & 46; John 19:24 & 30; Hebrews 2:12)

Psalm 22 is a prophetic psalm that vividly portrays the suffering of Jesus Christ centuries before the crucifixion. Taking a verse-by-verse approach, this lesson highlights how David’s cries of anguish, rejection, physical torment, and ultimate hope mirror the experiences of Christ on the cross. From the haunting words, “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?” (v.1) to the vivid descriptions of pierced hands and mocked trust (vv. 7–18), each verse invites us to see Jesus’ pain not only as fulfillment of Scripture but as a reflection of His deep love for us. As we walk through this psalm, we also discover that Christ’s suffering brings us comfort in our own trials, a pathway to hope, and the assurance that God turns suffering into victory.
