The Big Finale | Psalm 150
This message teaches that worship is not a posture we wait for, but one we bring with us as we recognize God’s unmatched greatness and all He has done. Psalm 150 challenges us to make praise a daily practice, beginning and ending our days by remembering that as long as we have breath, we have a reason to praise the Lord.
Guitar Ballads and Blessings | Psalm 67
This message teaches that God blesses us on purpose—not simply for our own benefit, but so that our lives can praise Him and point others to Jesus. We are blessed to be a blessing, using what God has given us to love, serve, encourage, and generously impact others.
Don’t Microwave the Fish | Psalm 120
This message challenges us to consider where we take our troubles—out on others, to the world, or to God. Psalm 120 reminds us to make prayer our first response, surrendering our struggles to God and trusting His way even when it requires humility and letting go of control.
Beard Oil & Mountain Dew | Psalm 133
This message teaches that harmony isn’t about agreeing on everything, but staying united around a shared purpose despite our differences. It challenges us to pursue humility over pride, selfishness, and division because harmony is precious to God, healthy for our relationships, and refreshing to our souls.
Taking Out the Trash | Psalm 32
This message teaches that confession frees us from the weight of hidden sin, guilt, and shame by bringing our mess into the light of God’s grace. Instead of hiding from God, we can run to Him, trusting that His forgiveness brings freedom, restoration, and joy.
Follow The Footsteps | Psalm 25
This message teaches that trusting God means believing His way is better than our own and choosing to follow His path in every area of life. It reminds us that as we seek God through prayer, His Word, worship, and Christian community, our lives are transformed into visible evidence of our trust in Him.
Psalms and Celine Dion | Psalm 73
This message teaches that lasting joy and purpose are not found in possessions, status, or success, but in God's presence and eternal purpose. It reminds us that when envy and comparison begin to take hold, worship, Christian community, service, and generosity help refocus our hearts on what truly matters.
Taste and See | Psalm 34
This message teaches that God’s goodness isn’t meant to be admired from a distance—it’s meant to be experienced through a personal relationship with Him. It challenges us to trust Him through obedience, generosity, service, and faith so that, having tasted His goodness ourselves, we naturally invite others to experience Him too.
The Perspective Effect | Psalm 23
This message teaches that God, our Good Shepherd, faithfully provides, guides, restores, and protects those who humbly follow Him through every season of life. It challenges us to trust His leadership and let the work He is doing in our lives become a testimony that points others to Jesus.
Shakespeare and the Psalms | Psalm 46
This message teaches that God is our refuge and strength, inviting us to trust Him instead of our fears, even when life feels chaotic or uncertain. It reminds us that true courage, peace, and joy are found by surrendering to the God who loves to rescue and faithfully leads us through every season.

God designed us to grow together, not alone. The church is a family where we support each other, pray for each other, and walk through life side by side. In community, we discover belonging, accountability, and a place to be known and loved.
Discipleship
Discipleship is the process of learning to follow Jesus in every part of life. It happens in community, through teaching, encouragement, and living out our faith together. As disciples, we don’t just believe what Jesus said—we learn to walk the way He walked.
Grace
Grace is God’s undeserved kindness and favor toward us. It reminds us that we don’t earn salvation, forgiveness, or His love—He freely gives them through Jesus. Grace changes our identity and frees us to live with humility, gratitude, and the confidence that we are fully known and deeply loved.
Healing
Messages under the Healing topic explore God’s heart to restore what is broken—physically, emotionally, spiritually, and relationally. Through Scripture, prayer, and real-life testimony, these teachings remind us that Jesus meets us in our pain, brings hope in suffering, and offers healing that goes deeper than circumstances. Whether healing comes instantly or over time, we are invited to trust God’s power, presence, and compassion in every season.
Hope
Hope is the confident expectation that God is working for our good, even when circumstances feel heavy or uncertain. It anchors us in the truth that Jesus has overcome the world, and because of Him, our future is secure. Hope gives us strength to keep going, eyes lifted, and hearts steady.
Humility
The Humility topic focuses on shaping hearts that reflect the posture of Jesus—marked by surrender, obedience, and service. These messages call us to lay down pride, embrace teachability, and live with dependence on God rather than self. As we walk in humility, we discover freedom, deeper relationships, and a life aligned with God’s purposes.
Identity in Christ
Our identity isn’t defined by our past, achievements, failures, or other people’s opinions. In Christ, we are loved, forgiven, chosen, and made new. When we live from our identity in Him, we experience confidence, peace, and freedom that nothing in this world can take away.
Jesus (Life & Teachings)
Jesus is the center of our faith—the Son of God who lived among us, taught us truth, died for our sins, and rose again. His life shows us who God is and how we were created to live. Following Jesus means shaping our lives around His example, words, and love.
Love
Love is the heart of God and the mark of His people. The love we receive from Jesus transforms how we see ourselves and others, leading us to extend grace, compassion, and sacrificial care. Love is not just a feeling—it’s how we live, speak, serve, forgive, and show Christ to the world.

Little Giants
Throughout the Bible, God repeatedly uses what seems small, ordinary, or insignificant to accomplish something extraordinary. A little courage, a simple act of obedience, or one small step of faith can become part of something much bigger when placed in God’s hands. In this series, we’ll explore stories of unlikely people, overlooked moments, and “little” things that added up in a big way. Together, we’ll discover that you don’t have to feel powerful, important, or fully prepared for God to work through your life—you simply need to trust Him with what you have.
Now That's What I Call Music!
The book of Psalms is a collection of songs, prayers, poems, and honest conversations with God written by people walking through every season of life. Throughout the Psalms, we see joy, grief, fear, victory, doubt, worship, repentance, and hope expressed with incredible honesty and trust in God. These writings remind us that no matter what we face, God is present, faithful, and worthy of our praise. This summer, we’ll journey through the Psalms together and discover timeless truths that still speak into our everyday lives today.
Philemon 335
335 words in the original Greek are all we have of this personal letter Paul wrote to a fellow Christian leader, Philemon. Although it contains only 335 original words, it says a lot. This letter reminds us that God’s church has always advanced through the work and dedication of everyday people. It’s a story of sacrifice, forgiveness, restoration and reconciliation. There’s a lot we can learn from these 335 words.
Peace of Mind
Peace of Mind is a four-week message series exploring what God says about our mental and emotional wellbeing. In Isaiah 26:3–4, we’re told that God keeps in perfect peace those whose minds are steadfast—those who lean on Him and rest their thoughts in His care. This series will honestly address realities many people face, including anxiety, worry, anger, fear, and depression, while helping us see that God deeply cares about our mental health because He deeply cares about us. His invitation is not to ignore these struggles, but to meet Him in the middle of them. Together, we’ll discover that real peace of mind isn’t something we can construct on our own—it’s something only God can provide. At the same time, Scripture gives us practical wisdom and clear next steps that help us pursue and maintain emotional and mental health. Whether you’re personally struggling, supporting someone who is, or simply wanting to grow stronger and steadier, this series will help you learn how to rest your mind in God and experience the lasting peace He promises.
Colossians
The book of Colossians reminds us of who Jesus truly is and what it means to follow Him with confidence. In a world filled with competing voices and uncertainty, this letter points us back to the supremacy of Christ and the new life we have in Him. Each week, we’ll explore one chapter together, uncovering practical truth that strengthens our faith and helps us live with clarity, purpose, and hope. This series is also an invitation to engage Scripture personally. By reading through Colossians over the course of four weeks, you’ll grow more familiar with God’s Word and more confident in your relationship with Jesus. As we move toward Easter, this journey will help deepen your understanding of the gospel and encourage you to follow Jesus more fully in every area of your life.
30-Minute Theology
In this short-form teaching series, we explore the core beliefs of the Christian faith - God, Jesus, the Holy Spirit, the Bible, salvation, the Church, and what's to come - helping new believers build a foundation and long-time believers deepen their understanding of what we believe and why it matters.
Manger Things
Manger Things is a special December teaching series that invites us to rediscover the wonder of Jesus’ birth by looking closely at the unexpected details surrounding the manger. While the title plays off the popular show Stranger Things, this series turns our attention to something far more extraordinary—the moment when God stepped into our world through the humble arrival of Christ. Each message explores how God uses ordinary people and unlikely places to reveal His love, His plan, and His presence with us. If you’re longing for hope this Christmas or wanting to deepen your understanding of the Christmas story, these messages are a meaningful place to begin. Each sermon is warm, practical, and rooted in Scripture, helping you see the manger not as a seasonal symbol, but as a powerful reminder that God meets us in the unexpected. As you explore the series, you’ll be encouraged to embrace the hope, peace, and joy Jesus brings into every part of life.
John
Through 2025, Sonrise Church went through an in-depth teaching series through the Gospel of John, taking a closer look at the life, character, and mission of Jesus. Each message explores who Jesus is, what He taught, and how His presence continues to shape our everyday lives. Across stories, conversations, miracles, and teachings, this series uncovers the heart of Jesus — the One who invites us to believe, to follow, and to live in relationship with Him. If you’re wanting to better understand who Jesus is, deepen your faith, or find guidance in the midst of real life, these messages are a meaningful place to start. Each sermon is practical, rooted in Scripture, and focused on helping you encounter Jesus personally — not just as a figure from history, but as a living Savior who knows you and loves you. Feel free to explore the series and choose the messages that speak to where you are today.
Values and Vision
Values and Vision is a teaching series that walks our church family back to the foundations of who we are and where we’re going. Across these messages, we explore the core values that shape Sonrise Church—things like gathering in community, worship, generosity, confession, prayer, and people reaching people—and how they all serve one clear mission: helping people know and follow Jesus. Rather than starting with big goals or plans, this series presses into the kind of church we’re becoming from the inside out, and how our shared values create a culture where life change is possible. If you’re wondering what Sonrise is all about, looking for clarity in a season of change, or wanting to align your life more fully with God’s purposes, these messages are a great place to begin. Each sermon is practical and rooted in Scripture, inviting you to live out your faith with courage, unity, and intentionality in everyday life. As you watch, you’ll be encouraged not just to understand our values and vision, but to embrace them personally—joining what God is doing in and through this church.
