The Gospel

Sun, 31 May 2026 13:00:00 -0400

The word “Gospel” gets thrown around a lot in church, but if someone asked you to explain it, what would you say? It’s the most important message of all time but it can still be a little hazy. This Sunday, we’re stripping away the churchy language and taking a look at the essential building blocks of the Gospel of Jesus. Whether you’re skeptical, curious, brand new to faith, or have followed Jesus your whole life, this message is for you.

Essentials: Is the Bible Useful

Sun, 27 Jul 2025 14:00:00 -0400

When it comes to matters of faith, there are a lot of different ideas floating around. It can be easy to get lost trying to ‘figure out’ God and get a handle on what’s true. Is there anything that is permanent and unchanging? From time to time, it’s important to refocus on what matters most: our lasting core beliefs that serve as the foundation of our Christian faith. We call these our Essentials.

Mind Your Busyness: It's time to Re-orient

Mon, 20 Jan 2025 10:00:00 -0500

WEEK 2 OF 3 // Andy Hahn

The message uses the analogy of a pilot recovering from an unusual attitude. Have you experienced a time when your life felt "upside down"? What led to your time and/or schedule getting disoriented?
Jesus made it a habit to "prioritize times of quiet." (In Mark 1:35, Jesus sought solitude early in the morning to connect with God.) When can you carve out intentional quiet moments in your day to reset and refocus? What obstacles might you need to overcome?
Jesus also made it a habit to "protect his schedule" and often said no to good opportunities to stay focused on His mission. How do you decide when to say yes or no to additional activity in your life? What helps you feel confident in those decisions?
Jesus often prioritized purpose over public approval. How do you handle the tension between living purposefully and meeting other's expectations and/or needs? Do you find it difficult to say no to the people in your life? Why or why not?
Pastor Andy introduced the idea of "editing our schedules" like a storyteller. Are there any "scenes" or "characters" you could remove to make your life (story) more aligned with your purpose If you freed up space, what (or who)could you add to your story to make it even better?

Sundays - On-campus: 9:30 & 11 AM | Online: Facebook & YouTube at 11 AM.

Mind Your Busyness: It's a Busy World

Sun, 12 Jan 2025 19:00:00 -0500

WEEK 1 OF 3 // Andy Hahn

How would you describe your current level of busyness? Would you say you are feeling overrun by all the activities in your life? Why or why not?
The message highlighted how culture often defines people by what they do, rather than who they are. How do you see this in your own life? Do you find yourself defining your identity by your job, your different roles, or your productivity?
Read the story of Martha and Mary in Luke 10:38-42. Martha gets distracted by all the work and loses focus on what matters most Jesus' presence. Can you think of a time when you got caught up in the busyness of life and lost sight of what was truly important to you?
Jesus told Martha that "Only one thing is needed," and Mary chose the better thing. Are there areas of your life where you feel you are filling your time with activities, but you're not feeling fulfilled? What would it look like to make an adjustment?
Pastor Andy raised the question, "Who or what is setting your agenda?" Are you currently setting the schedule for your life based on your core values and priorities, or are there areas where you've simply become busy for the sake of being busy?
Is there any part of your schedule that you think God would want to rearrange? If so, which are(s) and why?

Who Wields The Sword?- Book It

Sun, 24 Oct 2021 16:00:00 -0400

Pastor Matt Missler addresses the fact that many times people misuse scripture to support their pride and arrogance instead of allowing the Holy Spirit to hold it up as a mirror and change us. As we interact with God’s Holy word, let's approach it with humility and obedience, not using it as a lens to see other people through, but to see ourselves.

Discussion Questions:

When you read the Bible, what do you usually hope to get out of it? (inspiration, knowledge, direction, conviction…) Why?
How do you feel if someone uses scripture to point out a weakness in your life? How does their relationship with you affect your response?
Pick a passage of scripture (ex: James 1) to read and/or discuss as an individual, with a family member or your community group. Before you read it pray:
1. “God, how do you tan to shape me?”
2. God, whatever you say, I’ll obey.”
3. God, help me to see the way you see.”
What do you need to do this week to humbly submit yourself to the scripture you just read?

Our Executive Pastor, Andy Hahn shares the powerful testimony of his battle with depression and anxiety and asks us to shift our understanding of our challenges, looking at them as tools God is using to transform us and grow us instead of burdens that will forever weigh us down.

Are you currently dealing with (or have you dealt with) a tough challenge in your life? Share a bit of your story and how the challenge is affecting (or has affected) you.
When you face difficult times, what types of things do you do (both good and bad) to try and deal with your circumstance and ease your pain?
Read James 1:2-4…. Look back at a tough moment or season in your life. How did God use that “test” to shape your life and develop your faith for the better? What do you think God is still trying to teach you today?
As you consider what God has done in you through your challenge(s), how can you encourage someone else through what you have learned.

Sun, 18 Apr 2021 17:00:00 -0400

This is week 2 in our parenting series, Not A Nanny. As parents we are not experts at everything, but we also want the best for our children. So we learn to outsource some of their training to the experts. That may work with teachers, tutors, coaches or music lessons, but we can’t make the mistake of outsourcing their spiritual development to anyone else. God didn’t call someone else to teach your child to follow Jesus, He called you. Pastor Chris Williams and our Family Pastor, Laine Meek talk this week about how to disciple our children by being present and seizing every opportunity to know and influence their hearts.

Discussion Questions:

Share a funny”parent fail” moment from your own life.
What are your biggest obstacles that prevent you from engaging your children in spiritual conversations?
Read aloud Deuteronomy 6:7. In your own words, what is the “big idea” of this verse? Do You find this verse discouraging or encouraging? Why?
Pastor Laine said we must “be present and seize the opportunity” at the table, in the car, and at bedtime. Which of the three is most natural for you? Which of the three will you try this week?

Pursuit not Perfection- Not a Nanny

Tue, 13 Apr 2021 11:00:00 -0400

As parents we are not experts at everything. But we also want the best for our children, so we learn to outsource some of their training to the experts. That may work with teachers, tutors, coaches or music lessons, but we can’t make the mistake of outsourcing their spiritual development to anyone else.

Humility Asks For Help- Jesus Juke

Sun, 21 Mar 2021 20:00:00 -0400

Welcome to the Fearless Church Podcast. When Jesus came to earth, He ended up being a lot different than what anyone thought. He was constantly saying and doing things that flipped the system on its head. In many ways, He wasn’t the savior that we all expected Him to be. Lucky for us, as time has gone on and we have advanced into the modern age we have figured out exactly why He said and did everything about His life that is recorded in Scripture. We now have a crystal-clear understanding of this man that we devote our lives to, right? Or maybe not. This is week 3 in our series, Jesus Juke.

Not On Your Side- Jesus Juke

Mon, 08 Mar 2021 12:00:00 -0500

This is week 1 in our Series, Jesus Juke. When Jesus came to earth, He ended up being a lot different than what anyone thought. He was constantly saying and doing things that flipped the system on its head. In many ways, He wasn’t the savior that we all expected Him to be. Lucky for us, as time has gone on and we have advanced into the modern age we have figured out exactly why He said and did everything about His life that is recorded in Scripture. We now have a crystal-clear understanding of this man that we devote our lives to, right? Or maybe not. This week, our head pastor Chris Williams challenged us. Are we so set in our personal opinions that we assume God MUST be on our side, or are we willing to humbly except that he isn’t on anyones at all and what he really wants is our full surrender.

Don't Give Up On Sex- Don't Give Up

Tue, 02 Mar 2021 08:00:00 -0500

Join us as we wrap up our Don't Give Up message series! This week we finish this marriage series, on the topic of sex. Sexual intimacy is often a hard subject to talk about and it can be a challenging area for relationships, but we can’t give up on sex because it plays a critical role in connecting spouses together. Whether you’re single or married, sexually fulfilled or unfulfilled, our executive pastor, Andy Hahn, gives us some straight talk about God’s intention for sex and practical tips to help you build deeper intimacy. (Parents – we trust you to make a wise decision about the age, stage, and readiness of your kids to hear this ‘PG-13’ message)

Discussion Questions:

On a 1-10 Scale, how comfortable are you talking about issues related to sex and intimacy? Why did you pick that number?
What or who shaped your view about sex growing up? How has that affected you and your relationships/marriage for good or for bad?
The “big idea” today was that God designed sex to be a powerful, pleasurable point of connection within a marriage. Where do you agree or disagree with this idea?How are you encouraged by it? How are you challenged by it?
Personally, what are your roadblocks or groth areas when it comes to the issue of sex/intimacy in your marriage? If single, what are your specific challenges and growth areas with this issue?
What is one step you want or need to take in response to this message? Do any of the “pro-tips” apply to you?

Don't Be A W.E.N.I- Don't Give Up

Sun, 21 Feb 2021 16:00:00 -0500

Do you feel understood by your spouse? A study from the Gottman Institute was able to predict with over 90% accuracy whether a couple would still be married in five years simply by observing how they talk to each other. Communication is key to the health and vitality of any relationship, but this is especially true in our marriages. Unfortunately, many of us have multiple negative communication patterns that prevent our spouse from understanding what we are trying to communicate. We need to learn and ultimately eliminate those patterns from our life. This week, Pastor Chris & his wife Kristell will share how they are learning to overcome these patterns in their own marriage as they help others be understood, known, and loved by their spouse.

Discussion Questions:

Share a funny or embarrassing story that occurred while you were on a date with your spouse.
Why do you think understanding is so important in marriage?
When do you feel understood by your spouse?
What are your top two negative communication patterns from the W.E.N.I. acronym?

Singleness- Don't Give Up

Mon, 15 Feb 2021 14:00:00 -0500

We know that a marriage series in February can be just what your relationship needs, but for those of you that aren’t married, it feels disappointing, unrelatable and exclusive. Well, here at Fearless church we believe that this series is just as important for those that are unmarried as it is for people who are married. Marriage matters and your role in it matters. Wether you are already married, pursuing marriage, in a season of singleness, healing from a past hurtful marriage, or land somewhere else in the margins, we believe God has something for you in this series. So don't check out. Don't Give Up.

Jesus Didn't Give Up- Don't Give Up

Sun, 07 Feb 2021 15:00:00 -0500

In week one of our sermon series, “Don’t Give Up”, Pastor Chris Voltz reminds us of God’s intent in creating marriage. We know that ideally marriage is a safe, loving and secure place, but what happens when it turns into a place of hurt and insecurity? Today, Chris introduces the idea that without Jesus, we can’t be successful at displaying God’s love for the world through our marriage or any relationship, and gives us biblical advice on taking the first step in succeeding together with your spouse.

Discussion Questions

What is the worst experience you have ever had on an airplane?
What good and bad examples of marriages have you experienced in your life?

Brace Yourself for Healing- Brace Yourself

Sun, 17 Jan 2021 12:00:00 -0500

What if someone told you that you can find freedom from those secrets you are keeping? What if you could snap a finger and the pressure to keep up appearances just disappeared. What if there actually was a way for you to be free from the shame and guilt you are living in daily that makes you feel like you are the only one? While it might not be as quick as snapping a finger, we know God's word promises that we actually can find freedom from that guilt, from that shame, and from those little choices that we thought were no big deal but have now spiraled into full blown habits that are destroying us and our relationships. Pastor Chris Williams talks today about how confession, not just to God, but to each other, paves the way for freedom.

Discussion Questions

What does MLK Day mean to you?
When are you most tempted to hide your sin from God and others?
How has confession been a part of your spiritual journey up to this point?

Support- Brace Yourself

Mon, 11 Jan 2021 13:00:00 -0500

Are you spiritually strong? Or more importantly, is there anyone in your life right now that knows the answer to that question besides you? Community is one of the main pillars of Fearless Church. We believe that without other believers around you, you will never become a fearless follower of Jesus who changes the world. We need to have support of all different kinds all around us as we move forward in our pursuit of Jesus. This week, Chris Williams kicks off our “Brace Yourself” in Ecclesiastes, making the case that fearless followers of Jesus live in Biblical community and then he gives us some pointers on how to find it.

Discussion Questions

How did you ring in the New Year this year?
What does success look like for you in 2021?

Sun, 03 Jan 2021 12:00:00 -0500

Fearless Church is ready to move on and take new ground in 2021. Chris Williams casts our vision for the year and beyond as he reminds us what it looks like to be fearless followers of Jesus.

Do You Know Who You Are?- Too Good To Be True

Sun, 03 Jan 2021 12:00:00 -0500

In the last week of our “Too Good To Be True” series, pastor Chris Williams looks at Mary, the mother of Jesus, to challenge us with the idea that if you know who you are, then you’ll know what to do.

Discussion Questions

Pastor Chris said, “If you know who you are, then you’ll know what to do.” When has this been true in your life?
Read Luke 1:26-38 aloud. What words or phrases stand out to you the most? Why? What do you thinkMary was thinking as she had this conversation with the angel Gabriel?
What do you believe about yourself that often prevents you from taking your next faith step?

Just Do It- Too Good To Be True

Sun, 13 Dec 2020 12:00:00 -0500

Sometimes in life we are faced with extremely difficult decisions that seem to have no right answer. We wish God would just speak to us in a dream or beam a light down from heaven telling us what to do. In the 6th week of our “Too Good To Be True” sermons series, Chris Voltz examines a guy in the Bible who had to make an agonizing decision…. Joseph. Yup....the earthly father of Jesus. Through his example, we learn that discerning and obeying God’s will for us might not be as complicated as we make it, and that sometimes we have to “Just Do It”.

Discussion Questions

Share a funny story about a high school relationship that went south.
Have you ever felt caught in a decision where you weren't sure which option to choose? How did you decide which one was the right decision?
What is one clear cut command in scripture that you can work hard to implement in your life this week?
In the past, how have you seen your obedience to the commands of God bless those in your sphere of influence?

This is the 5th week in our series titled “Too Good To Be True”. Our family pastor, Laine Meek and his wife Laura examined the story of the prodigal son and challenged us to examine our fear of failure and how it may just be the first step in God's plan for us to succeed.

What is Your Faith Worth?- Too Good To Be True

Sun, 22 Nov 2020 15:00:00 -0500

This is our third week in our series titled “Too Good to Be True”. There are many stories in the Bible that center around characters with big faith. God blessed the people in scripture who took risks and obeyed His Word even when they weren’t sure of the outcome. Looking at these stories, it may feel like their faith is something unattainable, and even if it is, some crazy miracle isn’t going to happen as a result, right? This week, Chris Voltz shares the story of the prophet Elisha and how he gave up his comfort, security and time to honor God and, because of that great faith, his legacy lived on, even after death.

Discussion Questions

Who is your favorite Avenger and why?
On a scale from 1 to 10, how much would you say you are investing into your faith right now?
Has there ever been a time that you made a big faith decision and saw God’s blessing? Share the story with your group or with a friend.
What are a few things you can be doing this week to begin to sacrifice your comfort, security and time for the sake of someone else?

Even If He Doesn't- Too Good To Be True

Mon, 16 Nov 2020 00:00:00 -0500

We are excited that you have joined us this week on the Fearless Church podcast. This is our second week in our series titled “Too Good to Be True”. There are many stories in the Bible that center around characters with big faith. God blessed the men and women who took risks and obeyed His Word even when they weren’t sure of the outcome. Achieving the level of faith that the men and women in the bible have often seems unattainable but truly they are just like you and me. This week Chris Williams examines the faith of three men, Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego, their journey into a fiery furnace, and how their story can push us from “What If” fear to “Even If” faith.

Discussion Questions:

What is the most common cause of worry in your life? What do you do to minimize that specific worry?
Read Daniel Ch. 3. What part of this story stand out to you the most? Why?
Share a time in your life when God chose not to prevent hurt, pain, or suffering. How did that shape your faith into what it is today?

Sun, 08 Nov 2020 14:00:00 -0500

We are excited that you have joined us this week on the Fearless Church podcast. This week we start a new series titled “Too Good to Be True”. There are many stories in the Bible that center around characters with big faith. God blessed the men and women who took risks and obeyed His Word when they weren’t sure of the outcome. What can we learn from these men and women of faith and these stories that sometimes seem too good to be true? Achieving the level of faith that the men and women in the bible have often seems unattainable but truly they are just like you and me. Through the story of Elijah, Chris Voltz challenges us this week to look at what happens when our faith wavers and helps us to remember that because God is Faithful all the time, we can turn to him any time.

Discussion Questions

Share about a season of your life where you had extremely big faith. How did you see God move during that time?
What are you trusting God for in this season? Would you say that your faith is big or small right now?

Conflict with Karen- Calm Down Karen

Sun, 27 Sep 2020 14:00:00 -0400

This week's message is the first of our new sermon series, “Calm Down Karen!” We all know a Karen... Someone who is ready to argue with anyone about anything at any time. Whether you like it or not, those people still need the love of Jesus. How do you deal with those people in a way that points them away from explosive anger and towards the love of Christ? This first week we talk about how to handle “Conflict with Karen”.

Discussion Questions

In your own words, what does the phrase, “Calm Down Karen” mean? Describe a “Calm Down Karen” moment you have observed in person or via social media. What were you thinking when you observed this moment?
Read aloud 1 Peter 3:8-11. What words or phrases in this text do you find the most challenging? Why?
What would it look like to give a "blessing" (v. 9) rather than get revenge when someone hurts you?
Pause > Pray > Proceed with grace. Which step do you think will be the most challenging for you? Why?

Socially Distant: Let's Build a Bridge

Sun, 19 Apr 2020 23:00:00 -0400

You didn’t even know what social distancing was a month ago. Now it’s your life. Your new normal isn’t normal at all. Relationships just got harder and even though you can attend work meetings in your underwear now, let’s face it, Zoom calls are still not ideal (though the 40-minute meeting limit is a great bonus).

It’s in seasons like this, however, when our routines are broken, that God has a way of stretching us, calling us to more. Will we keep our heads down and just get by, or will we come out of this season of distance taking new ground in our relationships?

Take New Ground Discussion Questions:

How has social distancing affected your relationships? Are your relationships stronger, strained, or stagnant?
Pastor Chris shared, "Stress reveals what distance conceals." In what ways have you seen this in your own life? What has the stress of social distancing revealed about your relationship with God and others?
What is one thing you can do this week to start building a bridge towards one of the strained or stagnant relationships in your life?

Fear Less Love More: Pursue Generosity

Sun, 05 Apr 2020 22:00:00 -0400

Chris Voltz challenges us to examine where we are finding our security in these trying times. Are we looking for security and control in the resources we have and trusting in ourselves, or are we depending and trusting in God? As we read in 1 Timothy 6, we are challenged to examine our hearts and pushed to see the truth that the key to abundance in the future is generosity, especially with our physical resources. Generosity is contagious, lets go fear less and love more!

We are also joined by Chris, Kristell, Christian and Noah Williams in our "Take New Ground" segment. They discuss how to practically live out the challenge to pursue generosity and what that looks like for their family.

Sun, 29 Mar 2020 18:00:00 -0400

Chris Williams preaches on the importance of community and meeting together in this season where physical isolation is necessary. He challenges us to connect more, care more, and share more as we motivate others to love and good works. In a post-sermon "Take New Ground" segment, Chris and Grace Voltz answer the discussion questions posed at the end of the sermon.

Here are the discussion questions from today's sermon that we discuss at the end of the podcast.

Why do you think we need others to motivate us to love and good works?
What or who inspires you to love God and others more? Why?
With whom do you plan on reaching out and connecting to this week? How?
