The story of the prophet Hosea is one of the most powerful illustrations of God’s relationship with His people. Think about it! God told Hosea to marry a prostitute! When you break it down, the four major themes of Hosea’s God-ordained journey each reveal just how incredibly boundless God’s love is. His sovereignty is boundless, His compassion is boundless,…
Who do you see when you look in the mirror? This new 4-week series from Ministry Pass examines our identity in Christ, and what that means for us during times of trouble. This is a vastly important topic in our world today. We know who God says we are, but how does that work when…
This past May, I took a month long sabbatical. It was a huge blessing for me and my family. I wrote about some of the biggest benefits a few days ago here. Before I went on my sabbatical, I connected with other leaders who had already been on one to get their tips and advice…
I just returned from a sabbatical recently, and wanted to share some insights I gained from the experience. I will admit, a sabbatical has been something I daydreamed about, but never believed it would actually happen. Somewhere inside, I thought sabbaticals were only for super successful leaders. But the more I learn about successful leaders, the more…
Our culture values fame and celebrity status above almost everything else. Just look at how we idolize reality TV stars. Why are they famous? Because they’re famous! To be recognized and known is often confused with being accepted and loved. This 4-week series, Celebrity: What Faith Says about Fame, looks at why people desire praise, and…
The Gospel of Luke can be summed up in one phrase: It’s all about Jesus, and Jesus is for everyone. Throughout the book of Luke, Jesus is constantly reaching out to people pushed aside by the society of that time. Women, a thief, gentiles, fishermen, and “sinners”—they’re all here, and they’re all seen. This new…
This new 4-week series, called “The One,” explores the Biblical concept of marriage by answering the question, “How can I be ‘the one’ my spouse or my future spouse is looking for?” Starting with God’s design for marriage in Ephesians 5, and looking at specific marriage relationships described in the Old and New Testaments, this series discusses…
Our new series, “Organic: A Study Through the Pastoral Epistles,” takes a fresh look at 1 & 2 Timothy and Titus. Though we call them the “Pastoral Epistles,” these letters are really a collection of books that are concerned with church solidarity and function. A church is a living organism made of up individuals operating in…
We’re excited about a new 4-week series that challenges believers to share the truth of the gospel, and engage their community. This sermon series bundle has everything you’ll need to make this a powerful month of services that can result in incredible ministry happening both inside and outside of the church. We live in a culture…
When planning out your sermon calendar, it’s always important to have a strong mix of messages that are both evangelistic and discipleship-driven. I really love this new summer series focusing on the importance of radically following Jesus. Summer is the season to take a break from school, homework, and early bedtimes. Summer is also a time for…
Politics can be a messy topic. It has the potential to cause harmful division both in your community and in your church. We see it on the news, in social media, and during conversations everyday. How are Christians supposed to engage in America’s political conversation? How can we show Christ to those we disagree with?…
The book of Colossians is all about “greatness.” Namely, the greatness of Jesus. He surpasses anything else we can worship, or ever hope to worship, with our life. It’s an important and timely message in a day and age where we’re constantly surrounded by people and institutes claiming to have the wisdom we need to live happy lives….
This month, we’re launching a new children and youth ministry series on the Armor of God— it’s called Body Armor. In the same way Tony Stark could never defeat the super villains he fights without the Iron Man suit, Christians must put on the armor God has given us to withstand the evil one. Over…
We are pumped to release a new 3-week youth sermon series on friendship. The series plays off of Taylor Swift’s “squad.” Her squad received much attention with the recent Bad Blood music video. All over the internet, people began posting and commenting on how Swift’s group of friends were “squad goals.” Being a strong friend is…
Most pastors spend a large chunk of their time, energy, and budget on Easter Sunday; to the point where they forget about what comes next the following week. What’s just as important as having a great Easter Sunday, though, is having a great week after Easter Sunday. If you can get visitors back for the next…
When I saw the artwork for our new youth group sermon series, Dark Horses, I knew our team had captured the spirit of this message set. Dark Horses is a 6-week series that examines six lesser-known individuals in the Bible, looking at what we can learn from these often forgotten footnotes. Here’s the “big idea” of the series: God…
“Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal, but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal.” Matthew 6:19-20 (ESV) Our new series, The Cloud, hits at a core plague…
One of the greatest love stories of all time is an illustration of the greatest love story of all time. Our new series, Redeeming Love, is a 4-week series through the book of Ruth—emphasizing how Ruth’s story of redemption parallels the story Jesus wants to tell through us. The beginning of Ruth is a sad story of…
At Ministry Pass, we like to have a balance between topical sermon series and large passage/biblical book series. This month, we’re extremely excited to release a brand new exegetical series on the Ten Commandments. I love the classic yet fresh look of this hot off the press artwork. Our designers managed to invoke the ancient “Sinai” ascetic, while…
Israel: A Story of God’s People is a big-picture view of the history of Israel, weaving its way from Abraham to Jesus. Emphasizing the nature of God and the requirements of walking in relationship with Him, this six-week series builds the prophetic expectation of a Messiah. The story begins with the promise of Abraham, then…
I love end of the year lists. Movies, television, music, whatever. I’ve always found it insightful to look back at what captured our collective attention over the past 365 days. After looking at all of the lists this year, we decided to do a top ten of our own. We asked ourselves, “What were the…
This month, we announced the release of our 2016 sermon series calendars. We’re elated at the way they came out! We believe they’ll be an incredible resource for lead pastors, youth leaders, and church volunteers. Today, I want to highlight one of my favorite series from the calendars, Vivid. Vivid is a series about change—particularly, the change…
