Proverbs
How to Overcome Anxious Thoughts | Noah Herrin
Noah Herrin preaches from Hebrews 13:7-9 to show that anxious, negative thoughts can be changed by reorienting our thinking toward the consistent, gracious character of God. He argues that Christians often fill unknowns with worst-case scenarios, consume content that trains cynicism, and let inconsistent human leaders or past experiences dictate their view of God.
I Got the Bag | Noah Herrin
Noah Herrin preaches from Matthew 25 (the parable of the talents) to teach that every follower of Jesus has been entrusted with a "bag" - time, talent, and treasure - and will be held accountable for how it's stewarded. The parable shows faithfulness is measured by multiplying what God gives, not by comparing amounts between people.
Test God | Noah Herrin
Noah Herrin preaches on tithing as part of a series on money, arguing that tithing is a biblical act of stewardship, not a burdensome law. He defines tithing as returning the first and best 10% of what God entrusts to us through the local church and roots that definition in Scripture (especially Malachi 3).
The god of Money | Noah Herrin
Noah Herrin launches a multi-week series called "Money Moves," teaching from Matthew 6 that money can either be a tool or an idol. He argues that when money becomes a god in our hearts it blinds us, steals our joy, and competes with Jesus for the throne of our lives.
When You Let Down the People You Love Most | Noah Herrin
Noah Herrin preaches from John 21 about how followers of Jesus should respond to failure. Using Peter's return to fishing as the backdrop, he argues that the common responses - retreating, trying to earn back trust, or simply returning to what’s comfortable - are insufficient.
The Prayer Request of Jesus | Noah Herrin
Noah Herrin preaches from John 17, calling attention to Jesus' longest recorded prayer and arguing that most of Jesus' concern at the cross is for his followers - their protection, holiness, and unity. Jesus prays not to remove believers from the world but to keep them safe while they remain on mission, and he ties the credibility of the gospel to Christian unity.
How to Hear God's Voice | Noah Herrin
Noah Herrin teaches from John 10 about how followers of Jesus can learn to recognize God's voice. He argues Jesus the Good Shepherd provides direction, correction, and protection for his sheep, and that hearing God begins by slowing down, being in Scripture, and obeying what God has already said.
Addicted to Approval? How to Quit Comparing | Noah Herrin
Noah Herrin warns that an addiction to the approval of others - fed by constant comparison - will derail our obedience and calling from Jesus. He shows how comparison harms relationships (treating teammates like competitors), destroys contentment, and ultimately stops us from obeying God.
Quitting Porn for Good? | Noah Herrin
Noah Herrin opens with his personal history of struggling with pornography and cites research showing pornography use is widespread - even inside churches. He frames the issue theologically (temptation does not come from God; acting on temptation is sin) and explains pornography's destructive effects physically, emotionally, relationally, and spiritually.
What the Bible says about Gender Roles | Noah Herrin
Noah Herrin preaches from Ephesians 5 about marriage, arguing that Scripture calls believers to both mutual submission to Christ and distinct, complementary roles in marriage. He warns that culture has given people a "watered down" view of Scripture and marriage, so he unpacks what Paul means when he tells wives to submit and husbands to love sacrificially.
How to Date Biblically | Noah Herrin
Noah Herrin uses Song of Songs (chapter 2) as a framework to teach how to date with gospel-centered intention. He defines dating as an evaluation process to determine whether someone can serve, love, and run alongside you for life, and gives practical guidance on pacing, boundaries, and pursuit: men should pursue sacrificially, women may initiate but should not do the ongoing pursuing, and both should be clear and honest.
How to be a Godly Woman | Noah Herrin
Noah Herrin preaches from Proverbs 31 about what it looks like to be a godly woman, reframing the chapter as a practical call to holiness and mission rather than an impossible checklist. He outlines several marks of a godly woman: holiness (built on Scripture, not feelings), capability (being useful for God's mission regardless of marital status), trustworthiness, godly friendships, speaking life over her husband, sexual faithfulness within marriage, modesty, and knowing her value comes from the cross.
How to be a Godly Man | Noah Herrin
Noah Herrin preaches from Song of Songs chapter 1 about what it looks like to be a godly man. He argues that cultural messages devalue male leadership, but Scripture calls men to pursue Christlike character, protect sexual purity, provide for and value their families, and maintain a good reputation.
Much Fruit Church | Noah Herrin
Noah Herrin celebrates Way Church's two-year story while recasting its founding vision: to "bear much fruit" by following Jesus, forming committed community, and living with a missionary mindset. He grounds the vision in John 15 (vine and branches), warns against making fruit-production the goal instead of intimacy with Jesus, and uses a farming metaphor to urge continual sowing.
Fathers Who Fight | Noah Herrin
Noah Herrin preaches from 2 Timothy (Paul's farewell words) to encourage fathers to be priority-driven rather than results-driven. He argues that fatherhood often yields mixed outcomes ('results may vary'), so dads should focus on controllable inputs: loving God first, casting a clear family vision, and fighting the right fights.
The War on Truth | Noah Herrin
Noah Herrin warns that our culture's slogan "live your truth" is an almost-truth that plays into the devil's strategy of killing people through lies. Using John 8 (and other passages), he argues that lies are deadly because the human heart is deceitful and changing feelings cannot be the final arbiter of truth.
The Truth About Sex - Noah Herrin
Noah Herrin teaches from 1 Thessalonians 4 as part of the “Almost True” series, correcting common cultural half-truths about sex. He argues that Scripture doesn’t restrict sex to diminish joy but to protect and enable the best sexual flourishing - holy sex within the lifelong marital covenant.
The Slippery Slope of Sin - Harrison Conley
Harrison Conley uses David’s fall (2 Samuel 11-12) to show how big moral failures usually grow out of small, unguarded compromises. He traces David’s descent as a sequence of small steps (stayed, saw, sent, slept, schemed, sorrowed), arguing that isolation, boredom, and unchecked thoughts open the door to sin.
Don't Judge Me - Noah Herrin
Noah Herrin examines Matthew 7:1 in context and argues Jesus is not prohibiting all judgment but calling for right judgment. He explains that biblical judgment requires first examining your own sin, acting from humility, and aiming to help restore others.
What Jesus Thinks About Money - Noah Herrin
Noah Herrin walks the congregation through Jesus' teaching in Matthew 6 about treasure and Mammon, correcting common money misconceptions: that churches only want money, that all churches are sketchy with finances, and that money itself is evil. He argues Jesus and Scripture focus heavily on money because it reveals the heart, and insists the biblical problem is the love of money (Mammon), not money itself.
Overcoming Anger & Lust - Noah Herrin
Noah Herrin preaches from Matthew 5 (the Sermon on the Mount), focusing on Jesus' hard teaching about anger and lust. He explains that Jesus raises the standard from external obedience to the condition of the heart - anger toward others and lustful looks are judged.
The 5 Reasons We Give - Noah Herrin
Noah Herrin argues that the church doesn't have a money problem so much as a branding problem around money - people’s perceptions and misconceptions have changed even though Scripture's teaching about giving has not. He presents five reasons his family gives: obedience (tithing as a biblical command), to remove idols from the heart, to build a lasting kingdom, to receive God’s blessing, and to make a way for others.
My Friends Made Me Do It - Noah Herrin
Noah Herrin preaches from Mark 2 about how our closest friends shape our spiritual trajectory. Using his own youth story and the Mark 2 account of friends lowering a paralytic through a roof, he argues that friends' faith can open the way to Jesus (’seeing their faith’), while bad company can corrupt good character.
Fear's Greatest Hit - Brad Straarup
Brad Straarup preaches from Daniel 3 about how Christians should respond to fear. He identifies fear's most effective blow as the 'what if' - a hypothetical that keeps us from stepping into what God calls us to.
Work Hard Sabbath Hard - Noah Herrin
Noah Herrin teaches that God created both work and Sabbath as complementary gifts: we are meant to work hard and Sabbath hard. He traces work back to Genesis (work as part of God's design) and warns of two corruptions the devil uses against work - laziness and the idolatry of work.
Holiness In The Home - Maddy Herrin
Maddy Herrin encourages listeners - especially mothers - to pursue holiness in the home by cultivating discipleship, prayer, and faithfulness. She acknowledges the joys and struggles of different seasons of motherhood and uses vivid illustrations (a ‘‘director of operations’’ job description for moms, a Navy SEAL’s dependence on water) to show why the home must be a place where God’s presence is invited.
How To Practice Repentance - Noah Herrin
Noah Herrin teaches from Luke 15 that repentance is a regular habit for the Christian life, not a one-time event. He argues sanctification happens as we spend time with a holy God through holy habits, and repentance is a key habit that helps us become more like Jesus.
Don't Waste Your Life - Noah Herrin
Noah Herrin preaches from James chapter 4, urging listeners to stop 'shooting in the wrong goal' by living in sin with pride and instead humble themselves before God so He can lift them up. He contrasts self-promotion and craving control with a posture of humility and 'now faith,' arguing that God blesses small obedient steps more than perfected plans.
WISDOM WALKS - From Talk To Walk (pt.7) - Noah Herrin
Noah Herrin preaches from James chapter 3, arguing that wisdom is not merely intellectual knowledge but the application of that knowledge in everyday life. Wisdom, James says, is proved by a good life, deeds done, and a spirit of humility.
DOERS - From Talk To Walk (pt. 3) - Noah Herrin
Noah Herrin preaches from James 1:19-27 in the series From Talk To Walk, calling the church to be doers not merely hearers of God's word. He emphasizes being quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to anger, arguing that true righteousness flows from obedience rather than mere information.
PERSEVERANCE - From Talk To Walk (pt.1) - Noah Herrin
Noah Herrin preaches through James 1 as the start of a series called From Talk To Walk, urging listeners to move from merely talking about faith to living it out. He emphasizes that trials are inevitable but that God uses them to produce perseverance, maturity, and dependence on him.
Right Place. Right Time. Right Gift. - Noah Herrin
Noah Herrin preaches that Christmas can be more than traditions if three things happen in our lives: you are in the right place, at the right time, and you receive the right gift. He illustrates how ordinary places become sacred when God meets us there, using the Bethlehem story in Luke 2 and personal stories like his first kiss location and hospital visits.
The Manger In Me - Noah Herrin
Noah Herrin preaches from Luke 2, centering his message on the image of the manger to argue that Jesus intentionally entered human messiness. He walks through the nativity characters before landing on the surprising identification: we are the manger, and Jesus was placed into that mess from his first breath.
Remember Who You Are - Noah Herrin
Noah Herrin preaches from Mark 5, using the story of the woman with the issue of blood to show how our thoughts and our identity shape our lives. He argues that small thoughts lead to big outcomes and that the devil attacks our thinking to redefine our identity by our struggles.
It's Personal - Micah MacDonald
Micah McDonald preaches from John 20 using Mary Magdalene's encounter with the risen Jesus to argue that Christianity is meant to be deeply personal. He shows how hearing Jesus call her name moved Mary from grief to proclamation, and draws three practical results of a personal relationship: full commitment, the ability to recognize Jesus' voice, and clear purpose.
Only God - For My Money - Noah Herrin
Noah Herrin preaches from 2 Corinthians 9 on how money competes for the human heart and why Christians should give so that only God gets the credit. He argues that God is jealous for our hearts and that money often becomes an idol, so Jesus talks about money frequently to expose that idol and reorient us.
I Found A Way - Noah Herrin
Noah Herrin preaches from John 14, arguing that the world's promises of success and self-made "ways" ultimately leave us empty. Using a humorous college story about "adventure photography," he illustrates how people follow confident leaders and ladders of achievement that do not satisfy.
