When we look at the world and see so much chaos, it's easy to lose heart. When we look at elections and find more division than unity and more conflict than cooperation, it's easy to start feeling anxious. But what if God gave us a way to find hope in ANY circumstance, no matter what the outcome?

What makes for a powerful time of worship? The right leader, style of music, temperature, and lighting? A clear head and heart ready to experience God’s Spirit? What if some or none of those things are present? Can there be no worship? This week, we learn from the greatest Worship Leader of the Bible that true worship can be found even in the face …

David was the first king God chose for His people. He was the greatest King in the history of Israel. He must have been a really special young man. Why was God’s choice such a surprise? Why didn’t anyone else see it coming? What did God see in David that others could not see?

How to call on God to rescue us.

A relationship with God starts and ends with salvation being by grace through faith in Jesus alone. Sharing this news (the Gospel) is one of the highest calls of a Christian and one in which ever believe should be fluent in sharing the Gospel effectively. This week we learn about the three circles technique of sharing the Gospel and dive into answe…

We all struggle with doubts from time to time, but that doesn’t mean we don’t believe. It was my belief in Jesus Christ and God’s grace that saved me… but what about now? Does my belief still matter? Does my belief still make a difference in my life or the life of those around me? This week we learn to be uncomfortable from a group of folks who wer…

Our church should be a safe place, a place of refuge, a place of healing. But what if God needs to do some major surgery on our heart? The kind that can’t be handled in an outpatient procedure. The kind that cuts deep, leaves a scar, and causes major discomfort? Do you give your consent?

Did Jesus come to “Comfort the Afflicted”? or to “Afflict the Comfortable”?… Yes, to all of the above! If Jesus did not come to make things “comfortable" for His Church, why is the church trying so hard to be a comfortable place to be? Should Christians be comfortable?

Why are you here in Southwest Florida? What brought you here? Family, a job, or the water and weather didn’t bring you here. You are here on purpose… God’s Purpose. How would it change your life to begin living out the Mission that God has called you to join?

Our mission statement says that we “Believe in Christ alone.” Well, of course we do. We are a Christian church. It is right there in our name! The danger isn’t in believing in something instead of Jesus, the real danger is in believing isn’t enough. Believing that we need Jesus PLUS something else. The Apostle Paul faced this same problem in the ch…

The greatest threat to the Church today does not come from the outside, it comes from within. We have lost our Sense of Belonging! God’s Word reminds us that we Belong to each other and we Belong to God. This week Peter reminds us who we are and to whom we belong.

Our best life is following Jesus.

God entrusted every believer with a special gift. Hand picked by God to match our wiring to His perfect plan. God trusts you with that gift. Do you trust Him enough to invest His gift back into the Kingdom?

Can anything Good come out of Samaria? Jesus uses an otherwise despised enemy to teach us what a real neighbor looks like. Who’s your neighbor?

The Lost must be Found! That is a recurring theme for Jesus throughout the Gospels. Seeking and saving the lost was His own personal mission, and the mission He sent us, His church, on as well. What happens if we don’t join Him on His mission? How will the lost be found? Who will go searching?

Is a fig tree a fig tree if it never bears figs? Botanically speaking, it is still a fig tree, but certainly not a healthy fig tree. Something is not right with that fig tree. In our story this week, Jesus talks about a fig tree that isn’t producing and answers the question, “What do we do with a tree that doesn’t bear fruit?” With a relationship, …

How’s your retirement account doing? Equity in your home growing? We pay a lot of attention to our investments. We expect them to grow, so when they are not performing as expected, we move our assets elsewhere. God is no different. He has placed heavenly resources in each of us and expects a healthy return on that investment. The Parable of the Shr…

The one about the 10 Virgins… or... If you’re gonna be a Bridesmaid, make sure you are a “Wisemaid”!

What do you do when God doesn’t answer your prayer? Do you quit praying? Quit believing? Or even walk away? In this week’s Summer Story, Jesus teaches us how to pray through “unanswered prayers” with power, persistence, and with Shameless Boldness!

Everybody loves a good story, especially when it is told well. Join us this week as we begin our journey through the parable stories of the New Testament told by the Greatest Storyteller of all time!

Jesus goes out of his way to lead his disciples into an extremely uncomfortable situation in order to drive home two foundational truths of faith. First, identity in Christ changes everything. Second, life in Christ is warfare. All of this is made possible for us through Jesus’ victory on the cross over sin, death and evil!…

HAPPY BIRTHDAY! We celebrate Pentecost, the coming of the Holy Spirit, as the birth of the Church. What started with a bang, seems to be slowly fizzling out. What can we learn from the early church about the power and the potential of the Holy Spirit’s power? The power of the Holy Spirit can transform our relationships, our lives, and our faith!…

The Book of Daniel is about surviving and even thriving in a hostile environment. The key to thriving where it is hard is a consistent commitment to boldly living out your faith in Jesus Christ. The impact of this kind of example is life changing for you and for everyone around you!

It is so hard to watch someone who has every opportunity to succeed in life throw it all away. We often stand by powerless watching the train wreck happen. In today’s story we watch a young, self-centered king spiral down this path. It is too late to save him, but hopefully we can learn from his mistakes! May his poor example be a “Wake Up Call” fo…

Pride, seeking our own glory and pleasure, is the root of all other sins. Nothing separates from God faster and further than our own pride. How far will God go to break our pride and bring us back into relationship with Him?

God often delays the fulfillment of his promises to form our soul and position us to truly enjoy their fulfillment. As we wait, we must believe his promises, embrace the circumstances, and sustain our faith.

God is calling us to a Dangerous Faith. This kind of faith is very different than the comfortable faith found in many churches today. Our God is not only the God of the green pastures, He is also the God of the fiery furnace!

Last week we watched Daniel trust God and remain faithful through a very tough situation. This week it gets worse. In chapter 2 Daniel faces an impossible situation! Why does God ask us to face not only difficult situations, but literally “Impossible” situations in life? Let’s read together how Daniel walks right through his impossible problem with…

We begin a new series this weekend through the book of Daniel. Like Daniel centuries ago, we too live in a culture that is “Hell-bent” on molding us into its own image. How do we remain faithful and even make a difference in a culture that is openly antagonistic to our faith in Jesus Christ?

By looking at the bigger picture we can see God constantly pursuing a greater connection that brings new life to our world.

We are all moved when God moves. What do YOU do when Jesus draws near?

Everyone wants God to bless them, but not everyone gets blessed in the same way. Sure, we could say "that's just God's plan," but what if there was another piece to the puzzle? What if God's blessing was BOTH more mysterious AND more accessible than we think?

Cloud mean different things to different people. For some it's the threat of a forced change of plans. For other it's the promise of much needed rain. But what about "clouds" in our lives? What do we do when the sky ahead looks different than we wish it was, and how do we find God in the middle of it all?…

Jesus love and activity in our life should overflow into the lives of others.

Embodied within the Great Commission are three sets of fours. There's the four great "all's", the four great imperatives and the four great challenges. Join Dr. Jeff Singletary as we discover how the Great Commission is the Great Open Door to the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

We finally get settled into a relationship, a career, a new house, an empty nest, a good church, and yet the inner question persists… “Now what?” What’s next? We accomplish what we set out to do, we arrive at our desired destination and yet, we can’t shake that feeling that there must be more to life than this. There is! Today we follow Abraham’s s…

The Psalmist describes the journey of life as passing through. He affirms that in the midst of the journey that God is with us. As you are passing through be assured of the power and presence of the Lord for your life.

There are many people we interact with daily that are different. They have different characteristics, personalities and emotions. Most are pleasant to be around, but there is one that isn’t; and that is being around someone who is prideful. In the church and in our culture we want to be people that reflect humility not pridefulness. Today in 2 John…

In life everyone learns to walk. Most, probably don't remember what that is like but remember what it is like to learn something new. In II John, the Apostle John is writing to a house church and through that teaches a lot about how to love as the church, with false teachers and what our response is in today's culture. We are going to walk through …

What do you see when you look ahead to 2024? This week we have a special message from Pastor Jeff Singletary, reminding us that God is the one who opens doors ...

The buffer week between 2023 and 2024 is coming to a close. Are you ready for what’s next?! Each of us will face hard battles and good opportunities in the new year. What if we allowed God to change our perspective? What if we could see even our challenges as opportunities? What if the giants we are about to face are sent to make us stronger and be…

Love is the theme of this week’s Advent celebration. We may have saved the best for last, but what is love? How do we define it? How do we describe it? If a picture is worth a thousand words, then a living, breathing role model must be worth many more! This week we look at Mary, the mother of Jesus to understand what godly, unconditional love looks…

Find Joy! … that may be easier said than done! Is Joy something that can be lost and then found again? If it can be “found,” then where do we begin looking? Joy came to earth with the birth of Jesus Christ and can be found all throughout the New Testament. Join us this week on a journey to find Joy!

This Advent season, we look to Scripture to find the peace of God. Join us for a special message from guest speaker Trent Griffith. Looking to learn more about New Hope? Find church information and more resources at www.NewHopeCapeCoral.com

Advent is finally here! That means Christmas in only a few weeks away, and I can’t wait!!! Why is Christmas such a big deal? Why do we need Christmas anyways? To find the answer, we will look back to the Old Testament prophecies about Christmas. The prophet Micah teaches us why Christmas is such a big deal!…

We do not naturally gravitate towards gratitude. We weren’t born being thankful. We had to learn to say, “Thank you.” And yet, most psychologists agree that Gratitude is the healthiest human emotion. How can we cultivate a Thankful Heart? What would change in our lives if we did…?

Does God create “Great Churches” or does God choose “Great Churches” when He wants to move powerfully? Today we are doing a deep dive into the church at Antioch to learn what a Great Church looks like! As we finish up our series in the Book of Acts, it’s going to get personal...

As Floridians, we have seen firsthand the destructive power of a strong storm. Nothing is left in its place after the storm has passed. What if some storms aren’t meant to destroy, but rather put things back into place. Even set people back on course? This week we are reading a story of how God used a storm to perfectly position Paul for ministry.…

The situation looked grim. Herod had just killed James and Peter was in chains just hours away from the same fate. But God… sent an Angel to break him out of jail! This Breakout story ignited the early church to move out and expand faster than ever! God is still sending Angels and desires to break our chains today. When He does, we will see a Break…

It’s been said, “If you aim at nothing, you’ll hit it every time!” As followers of Jesus Christ, we believe God has a beautiful plan for our lives. This plan folds perfectly into His mission to redeem a lost world back to its Creator. In Acts 20, Paul is nearing the end of his ministry and life. He reminds us what it looks like to follow God’s Plan…
