You’re Not Lacking—You’re Just Not Using What You Have | The Gospel of Matthew

Sandals Church — Sat, 18 Apr 2026 17:00:00 -0700

Most people feel like they’re missing something—more talent, more opportunity, more time. But what if that’s not actually the problem? What if you already have what you need, and the real issue is you’re just not using it? This message explores why we compare ourselves, hold back, and underestimate what’s already in our hands. If you’ve been feeling stuck, behind, or unsure where to start, this might shift how you see your life. You don’t need more—you need to start.

You Can't Borrow Someone Else's Character | The Gospel of Matthew

Sandals Church — Sat, 11 Apr 2026 17:00:00 -0700

Have you ever realized that when a crisis hits, you can't borrow someone else's strength to get you through? In this video, we break down an ancient story about ten people who thought they were ready for a life-changing moment until the lights went out and exposed who was actually running on empty. Eventually, the difficult seasons of life will reveal whether you have built genuine internal character or if you are just faking it. It's time to stop going through the motions and start living with real urgency today.

The Hardest Part About Faith Is Admitting You’re Wrong | Sandals Church

Sandals Church — Sat, 04 Apr 2026 17:00:00 -0700

Have you ever known you were wrong but didn’t want to admit it? Pride can quietly shape our decisions, damage our relationships, and keep us stuck longer than we want to be. This message explores why admitting we’re wrong is so difficult — and how humility might be the thing that finally brings peace into our lives. If you’ve ever wrestled with doubt, fear, or wondering if it’s too late to change, this message is for you. Sometimes the hardest step forward starts with four words: I was wrong.

There’s So Much Bad News, Here’s How to Keep Your Faith | The Gospel of Matthew

Sandals Church — Sat, 28 Mar 2026 17:00:00 -0700

Bad news is everywhere — wars, disasters, anxiety, and constant noise about what’s going wrong in the world. It’s easy to feel overwhelmed, afraid, or like everything is falling apart.

If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed by the world lately, this conversation is for you.

You’re Not Tired of Faith, You're Tired of Fake People | The Gospel of Matthew

Sandals Church — Sat, 21 Mar 2026 17:00:00 -0700

Ever feel like something about faith just doesn’t sit right anymore?
A lot of people aren’t walking away because they’ve stopped believing—they’re walking away because what they’ve seen doesn’t feel real. When words and actions don’t match, it creates frustration, confusion, and distance.
In this message, we unpack the difference between authentic faith and performative religion—and why integrity, honesty, and real relationships matter more than appearances. If you’ve ever felt disappointed, skeptical, or just tired of the disconnect, this conversation is for you.

The Reason So Many People Are Done With Church | The Gospel of Matthew

Sandals Church — Sat, 14 Mar 2026 17:00:00 -0700

Social media changed something in all of us. When the like button appeared, life slowly became a performance — moments curated, stories crafted, and approval measured. But that same instinct can quietly shape our faith, turning something meant to transform us into something we perform for others. In this message, we explore why hypocrisy and performative religion push people away, and why authenticity, compassion, and humility matter more than appearances. If you’ve ever felt frustrated with religious hypocrisy or wondered why faith sometimes feels fake, this conversation is for you.

You’re Achieving More... But Who Are You Becoming | The Gospel of Matthew

Sandals Church — Sat, 07 Mar 2026 17:00:00 -0800

Many of us spend years asking the same things: Am I doing enough? Am I keeping up? Am I falling behind? But over time a deeper question starts to surface, who am I actually becoming? In this message, we explore the tension between achievement and identity, why being busy doesn’t always mean we’re becoming better people, and why the most important measure of a life well lived might be something completely different than what culture tells us. If you’ve ever wondered why success can still leave you feeling restless, this conversation might challenge the way you think about purpose, priorities, and what really matters.

Why Everyone Is Angry and No One Is Listening | The Gospel of Matthew

Sandals Church — Sat, 28 Feb 2026 17:00:00 -0800

Why does every conversation feel tense, defensive, or explosive lately? Politics, social issues, and opinions dominate our feeds—but real understanding feels harder than ever. In this message, we explore why anger has become louder than listening, how “gotcha” questions shut down meaningful dialogue, and what it actually looks like to respond with wisdom instead of outrage. If you’re tired of endless arguments and want a better way to navigate difficult conversations, this message is for you.

Why Being Busy Doesn’t Mean You’re Healthy | The Gospel of Matthew

Sandals Church — Sat, 21 Feb 2026 17:00:00 -0800

What if being busy isn’t the same as being healthy? This message starts with a simple moment—a child celebrating a single strawberry—and opens up a bigger question about the gap between how life looks on the outside and what’s actually growing underneath. We often measure health by productivity, activity, or appearances, but those metrics can quietly mislead us. This talk invites an honest look at what real growth looks like, where it comes from, and why slowing down may be the key to becoming whole again. If you’ve ever felt active but disconnected, this conversation is for you.

When Church Becomes a Show, Everyone Loses | The Gospel of Matthew

Sandals Church — Sat, 14 Feb 2026 17:00:00 -0800

What happens when something meant to be meaningful turns into a performance?
In this message, we explore why so many people feel disconnected, bored, or frustrated in church—and how that often has less to do with music or style and more to do with authenticity. Using a powerful moment from history, this talk challenges the idea of “going through the motions” and invites us to rediscover what real, life-changing worship looks like. If you’ve ever felt like church became more about the show than the substance, this conversation is for you.

What to Do When No One Seems to Hear You | The Gospel of Matthew

Sandals Church — Sat, 07 Feb 2026 17:00:00 -0800

Ever feel invisible in a crowded world? This message explores a powerful moment from the life of Jesus where two desperate men refuse to stay silent — and it changes everything. In the middle of noise, pressure, and people telling them to quiet down, they cry out for help… and are heard. If you’ve ever struggled with anxiety, depression, relationship stress, or feeling overlooked, this talk reminds us that your needs matter and your voice matters. Hope, healing, and real change often begin with one honest cry for help.

You're Not Failing, You're Finding Your Strength | The Gospel of Matthew

Sandals Church — Sat, 31 Jan 2026 17:00:00 -0800

Ever feel like you’re capable of more… but something keeps holding you back?

In this message, Pastor Matt Brown gets real about what it actually takes to unlock your full potential—not through hype, but through growth, discipline, and resilience. You’ll hear why comparison and social media can distort how you see yourself, how the right people can help you discover your strengths, and why the path to becoming your best self usually includes discomfort.

You’ll also learn a simple framework to push through setbacks (the “I won’t / I can’t / I will / I am / I did” stages), plus a mindset shift that changes everything: emotions are a mirror, not a map.

Why Success Isn't Giving You Peace | The Gospel of Matthew

Sandals Church — Sat, 24 Jan 2026 17:00:00 -0800

What does it really mean to let go and trust? In this message, we explore a powerful story about success, control, and the cost of chasing what we think will satisfy us. Through the contrast between a child and a wealthy, accomplished man, we’re invited to rethink what truly matters and why letting go can feel so hard. This talk wrestles honestly with ambition, identity, and the fear of losing what we’ve built. Sometimes the very things we cling to are what keep us from the life we actually want.

The Relationship Advice TikTok Won’t Say Out Loud | The Gospel of Matthew

Sandals Church — Sat, 17 Jan 2026 17:00:00 -0800

Our culture treats marriage like a vibe, a contract, or a feeling — but feelings change fast. This message challenges the idea that relationships should be disposable and asks what it really takes to build something that lasts. We talk about how desire, independence, and unrealistic expectations quietly sabotage love before we even notice. Whether you’re single, dating, married, or healing from a breakup, this is about learning to choose commitment over convenience. Real relationships aren’t about chasing the next spark — they’re about becoming the kind of person who can actually keep one.

Stop Assuming Motives, It’s Ruining Your Relationships | The Gospel of Matthew

Sandals Church — Sat, 10 Jan 2026 17:00:00 -0800

Conflict shows up in every relationship, but most of us were never taught how to handle it well. In this message, Jesus offers a practical and challenging way to deal with conflict without destroying relationships. Instead of avoidance, gossip, or escalation, He calls us toward honesty, accountability, and grace. The message also confronts a hard truth: refusing to give grace after receiving it leads to bitterness and broken connection. This talk offers wisdom for healing relationships and moving forward with clarity and hope.

You Don't Control the Day, But You Do Control This | The Gospel of Matthew

Sandals Church — Sat, 03 Jan 2026 17:00:00 -0800

What if every person mattered — no exceptions? Jesus tells a story about a shepherd who leaves ninety-nine sheep just to find the one that wandered, reminding us that real love doesn’t rank people or write them off. This message is about learning to see others with compassion, celebrating even small steps forward, and remembering that your life carries real worth — even on the days you doubt it. You are seen. You are valued. You are worth searching for.

The Small Habits Quietly Wrecking Your Life | The Gospel of Matthew

Sandals Church — Sat, 27 Dec 2025 17:00:00 -0800

That quiet stretch between Christmas and New Year’s can feel strange. We rest. We think. We replay the past year — sometimes with joy, sometimes regret. This message is about reflection — not guilt, not pressure — but honest growth. Because when we don’t reflect, we repeat. And the cracks we ignore in our character, stress, or ego often follow us into the next season.
If you want to step into the new year more grounded and intentional, this talk will guide you through simple reflection that leads to real change — not more hustle.

Light of the World | A Sandals Church Christmas

Sandals Church — Wed, 24 Dec 2025 06:00:00 -0800

In this message, we look at how the lights in the heavens are not random or accidental. The sun’s distance, the moon’s position, and even the protection of distant planets all point to intentional design. Science can describe what these lights are—but only God reveals why they exist and what they mean for us.

That same God placed a specific light in the sky to lead the Magi to Jesus. Scholars, astronomers, and seekers from another culture followed the star until it brought them face-to-face with the Savior. Their journey reminds us that no amount of knowledge, intelligence, or sincerity can replace the need for Jesus.

The Problem with Trying to Be Perfect | The Gospel of Matthew

Sandals Church — Sat, 20 Dec 2025 17:00:00 -0800

Ever feel like you’re working way too hard to be "the best" at everything? Most of us are exhausted from trying to keep up an image, but Jesus has a totally different (and much more relaxing) way to live.

In this part of our Gospel of Matthew series, we’re talking about the "Good Person" trap. Even the best people struggle with pride. It’s the thing that secretly messes up our marriages, our parenting, and our peace of mind. Jesus points us to a surprising teacher on how to be "great": a child. Turns out, the secret to a better life isn't more ego. It's more humility.

You’ve Been Carrying More Than You Were Meant To | The Gospel of Matthew

Sandals Church — Sat, 13 Dec 2025 17:00:00 -0800

Family tension, financial pressure, emotional exhaustion, broken relationships — the weight can feel overwhelming. In this message, Pastor Fredo Ramos explores why powerlessness shows up so strongly this time of year and what to do when our usual fixes stop working.

This talk invites us to rethink strength, faith, and control. It’s not about trying harder or pretending everything is fine. It’s about discovering a deeper kind of trust — one that meets us right in the middle of our real lives, not just our mountaintop moments.
If you’ve ever felt stuck, exhausted, or unsure how to move forward when things feel impossible, this message is for you.

Letting Go of the Life That’s Keeping You Stuck | The Gospel of Matthew

Sandals Church — Sat, 06 Dec 2025 17:00:00 -0800

We’re all making decisions based on what feels safe or worthwhile. But what if the biggest risk isn’t out there somewhere… what if it’s staying the same?

In this message, Pastor Matthew Stephen Brown shares honest, funny, and deeply relatable stories—from awkward gym encounters to facing fears in everyday life—to explore a bigger question: Is the life you’re holding onto actually holding you back? Through a look at one of Jesus’ most challenging teachings, you’ll discover why real change often requires letting go, rethinking old assumptions, and seeing yourself with new clarity.

Sometimes the things we try hardest to avoid are the very things that could change us most.
In this talk, Pastor Matthew Stephen Brown shares a powerful perspective on what it means to face the darkness in your life—fear, pain, or doubt—and discover that growth often begins where comfort ends.
If you’ve ever wondered how to find meaning when life feels messy or uncertain, this message will help you see that light isn’t the absence of darkness—it’s what pushes through it.

When Proof Isn’t Enough Anymore | The Gospel of Matthew

Sandals Church — Sat, 22 Nov 2025 17:00:00 -0800

We all look for signs—something to confirm we’re on the right path or to prove that things will work out. But what if the signs we’re searching for are distracting us from what’s already right in front of us? In this message, Pastor Claude Hickman explores what it means to stop chasing external proof and start trusting what’s true. Through stories from Jesus’ life and real-world insight, discover how clarity comes not from constant signs or miracles, but from learning to listen to what really matters.

If you’ve ever felt like you need a “sign” before you move forward, this talk will help you see that the truth might already be clear—you just need to stop looking everywhere else for it.

Sandals Church — Sat, 15 Nov 2025 17:00:00 -0800

What do you do when life goes quiet—when the help you’re begging for never seems to come?
In this message, Pastor Matt Brown explores one of the most surprising and emotional encounters in Jesus’ life: a desperate mother who refuses to give up. Her story reveals what persistence, courage, and hope look like when everything feels stacked against you.
If you’ve ever felt unheard, overlooked, or unworthy of help, this talk offers a fresh reminder that silence doesn’t mean abandonment—and that sometimes, faith looks like refusing to walk away.

You Can’t Heal What You Hide | The Gospel of Matthew

Sandals Church — Sat, 08 Nov 2025 17:00:00 -0800

We spend so much of life trying to appear put-together—polished online, confident in public, “fine” when people ask how we’re doing. But what happens when the persona we project no longer matches who we really are?

In this message, Pastor Justin McVey unpacks why so many of us feel disconnected from ourselves and exhausted by trying to be someone we think others will approve of. Through honest stories, humor, and a surprising look at an ancient debate over hand-washing, he explores how authenticity, integrity, and owning what’s really going on inside can change the way we show up in the world.

What if the very thing you’re trying to avoid is the thing that could change you the most?
In this message, Pastor Matthew Stephen Brown talks about how life’s storms — the setbacks, fears, and moments that feel out of control — often hold the key to growth. Through one of the most famous stories ever told, we see what it means to find courage when you’re scared, strength when you’re sinking, and peace when everything feels uncertain.

If you’ve ever felt like you’re drowning in life’s chaos, this message will help you see that you’re not alone — and that what looks like the end might actually be the beginning of something new.

What if you already have what you’ve been praying for?
In this message, Pastor Matthew Stephen Brown shares powerful moments and stories that challenge how we see scarcity, purpose, and gratitude. When life feels overwhelming or uncertain, it’s easy to think we’re missing something — time, money, clarity, peace. But what if what you already have is exactly what you need?

Through real stories of compassion, pain, and unexpected provision, this talk explores how perspective can turn “not enough” into abundance, and how giving, trust, and gratitude can change everything about how we live.

When Regret Hits Harder Than You Expected | The Gospel of Matthew

Sandals Church — Sat, 18 Oct 2025 17:00:00 -0700

We love stories that tie up neatly — the music swells, the hero wins, the credits roll. But life doesn’t always play out like that. Sometimes things break, people disappoint, and endings don’t come with closure.

In this message, Pastor Fredo Ramos explores one of the most unsettling stories in history — a story full of regret, compromise, and pain. Through the lives of Herod, John the Baptist, and those left grieving, we discover uncomfortable but hopeful truths about our choices, our conscience, and what to do when the story doesn’t resolve the way we hoped.

Most of us spend our lives trying to stay in control — of our plans, emotions, and outcomes. But what if the key to a stronger, more centered life isn’t control… it’s surrender?
In this week’s talk, Melody Workman challenges the idea that winning always means getting your way. Through real-life wisdom and timeless principles, she shows how releasing control can create clarity, purpose, and a deeper sense of peace.

Ever feel like the world is falling apart—and you have no idea where to start?

The mission isn’t somewhere “out there.” It’s here. It’s now. And it might just start with you.

For more Practice videos, check out https://sandalschurch.com/practice

We are all becoming someone. In fact one of the best questions that you can ask yourself is: “who am I becoming?” For those of us who follow Jesus, we refer to this as spiritual formation; which is away for us to describe the process of becoming more like Jesus; so If you want to become like Him, then you need to do the things that Jesus himself did.

Ever wanted to know how to read the Bible? Check out this video where Pastor Fredo Ramos guides us through the practice of reading scripture.

How Feelings and Emotions Effect Your Overall Wellness | Healthy

Sandals Church — Sat, 13 Jan 2024 21:00:00 -0800

Bringing emotional health to the forefront, emotions play a huge role in shaping our decisions, leading to the course our lives take. As stated in biblical texts, the heart, centers human emotions. This aligns with modern science that show decisions are never made empty of emotions. Unchecked emotions can lead to impulsive decisions, such as when we admit to making purchases emotionally, leading to potential regrets.

Emotions can drive choices related to health, job, relationships, and religious practices, which may not benefit someone's long-term well-being. Overcoming these hurdles requires acknowledging the power of emotions and creating strategies to prevent their power in life's journey.

Feeling Grateful is Not Gratitude | Generous Like Jesus

Sandals Church — Sat, 09 Dec 2023 22:00:00 -0800

To be grateful is good, but to actually practice gratitude is so much more than that. By practicing gratitude, you are choosing to follow Jesus, even when you don't understand. You're promising to remain faithful, even when it's difficult.

So many of us live like we know Jesus, but our actions just don't follow. Maybe you even feel grateful to God, but you don't go any deeper than that. You may not be allowing your faith to grow any further, and that matters to Jesus.

Check out Melody Workman's message on "Why Feeling Grateful Isn't Enough", and comment below your thoughts or feelings! We'd love to hear from you.

How to Manage My Finances | Generous Like Jesus

Sandals Church — Sat, 02 Dec 2023 22:00:00 -0800

Did you know that Jesus talked about money more than almost any other topic in the New Testament?

Despite the anxiety that it gives most of us, we have to be open to talking about the subject, because, the reality is, where our money goes often points to where our heart is at. In Luke 16:13-14 (NLT), Jesus says "No one can serve two masters. For you will hate one and love the other".

If money is our only concern, and we don't trust God with our money, then where is our heart truly at? Are you contributing to the growth of God's kingdom, or are you just benefitting from it? Consider this as you check out Pastor Matt's message.

Practice: The Spiritual Practice of Listening

Sandals Church — Wed, 22 Nov 2023 16:28:08 -0800

Learn the spiritual practice of listening: being fully attentive with the intent of understanding. Listening is a matter of life and death when it comes to relationships. There is no life with God apart from listening. Our current culture is noisy with lots of talking. The practice of listening is a dying art.

Here's how you can practice listening:
- Ask people how they experience your listening
- Think about how you can become a safe person

Practice listening so that you can be formed more fully into a person of love.

Spiritual formation is the process of how we become more like Jesus.

How to be Generous | Generous Like Jesus

Sandals Church — Sun, 19 Nov 2023 07:49:58 -0800

In a culture where greed and selfishness are so predominant, how do we allow ourselves to be marked by generosity?

Generosity is a lot more than what you do with your money. Jesus was incredibly generous, yet He had little to nothing to His name. He was generous with His time, His affection, and His words.

Even if you don't have much, how can you be more generous in your life? What do you need to sacrifice so you can give more?

Sharing Our Faith at the Table | Oblivious

Sandals Church — Sat, 11 Nov 2023 22:00:00 -0800

How often have you judged someone because they looked a little different? What about the way that they talked, or something they said? What if, instead of judging someone based on your surface-level interpretation, you decided to understand them?

Hospitality with your faith isn't always easy. You might even find yourself in an uncomfortable conversation or two, but it's vital to share what you believe the way that Jesus did: with the utmost love and compassion.

Take some time to reflect on Pastor Fredo's words as you check out this sermon on how to share your faith at the table.

Are You a Prideful Person? | Oblivious

Sandals Church — Sat, 04 Nov 2023 22:00:00 -0700

One of Jesus' most evident qualities was His ability to be humble, yet the thing our world struggles most with is unchecked pride. Why is this?

Unfortunately, the path to humility is challenging. When was the last time you examined your own blind spots? How frequently do you seek honest feedback from those close to you? Humility doesn't just come naturally, and if you don't constantly work at it, you may never find yourself attaining it.

Take some time to listen to Pastor Fredo's message on becoming marked by humility, and how in some ways, we are all oblivious to our pride.

How to Deal with Broken Relationships | Oblivious

Sandals Church — Sat, 28 Oct 2023 22:00:00 -0700

Amidst the intricate web of our relationships, conflicts are bound to surface. Whether we realize it or not, those in our sphere are observing how we, as individuals, navigate and resolve these disputes.

In these moments of relational conflict, you'll encounter an opportunity to extend compassion, grace, and understanding, but the choice ultimately lies with you. The truth is, it can often be more tempting to hold onto anger rather than extending the olive branch and fostering peace. How can you challenge yourself to be more generous with your grace during this season? Who do you need to seek reconciliation with? Take a moment to reflect on these questions as you watch Pastor Matt's sermon on how Jesus can guide you through your relational conflicts.

How to Identify the Obvious in a Culture that is Oblivious | Oblivious

Sandals Church — Sat, 21 Oct 2023 22:00:00 -0700

Truth can be difficult to find in a culture that is oblivious to what is happening around them. We so often miss the needs of those around us. Sometimes, we even miss important things about ourselves. But more often than not, we miss the truth of what God is doing in our lives.

1 Corinthians 13:6 NIV says this, "Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth.". How can you create a culture of truth around you? Is there someone that needs to hear the truth from you, or do you yourself need to receive a difficult truth from someone else? The reality is we all struggle with this. Take comfort in the knowledge that God's truth is certain, and if you're willing to listen, He will make it known to you.

Multiply | The Essentials

Sandals Church — Sat, 07 Oct 2023 22:00:00 -0700

In Matthew 28, Jesus makes one of his most important commands yet-- He asks all of his followers to go forth and make disciples of all the nations. To share their faith with those who do not believe. This isn't always easy, but the command is simple.

The reality of the Christian life is that it isn't easy, but to walk with Christ is to make the daily choice to choose His way over yours. What can you do to take a step towards spiritual growth? Who in your life can you invite into your faith journey? Think on these questions as you check out this week's sermon!

Learning to Share My Faith in Jesus | The Essentials

Matthew Stephen Brown — Sat, 30 Sep 2023 23:05:55 -0700

The Christian faith revolves around the concept of discipleship, a strategy built on believers actively sharing their faith to cultivate new believers, who, in turn, continue this cycle by sharing their faith with others.

Unfortunately, discussing your faith can sometimes feel challenging. When was the last time you engaged in a conversation about Jesus with someone who doesn't share your faith? For many of us, it has probably been a while. Take some time and listen to Pastor Matt's message on how to improve at sharing your faith, and what you can do differently in your own personal faith journey.

If everyone served like you, where would the church be? Would it be thriving and filled with volunteers, or would it be struggling to make service happen?

Our culture often leans into a "consumer" focused mindset where all we do is take... but what would happen if you started to give back to the church? To serve the people that you worship next to every weekend? Even if you've been attending for years and years, it's never too late to start. Will you leave a legacy, or a vacancy?

Supporting the Mission God Gave Me | The Essentials

Matthew Stephen Brown — Sun, 17 Sep 2023 06:00:00 -0700

Trusting God is the cornerstone to the Christian faith, but when it comes to finances & tithing, it can be tough.

In Matthew 14, Jesus and His disciples find themselves at an impasse. With tens of thousands of people wanting to hear Jesus' words, they need to be fed. Jesus then takes some bread and fish from a young boy and multiplies it, feeding everyone-- with extra to spare.

The secret is God can turn a little into a lot. He can take your gifts and do something big, but before anything you have to trust Him. When you bless Jesus, He will bless you in abundance.

For Christians, the church does more for your faith than you know, like reminding you of the power of God that saved.

How Being Vulnerable Helps Your Spirituality | Hidden

Melody Workman — Sun, 06 Aug 2023 09:06:33 -0700

Have you ever felt overwhelmed by the weight of shame? Whether it’s shame that has been forced on to you by others, or you are wrestling with it internally, there’s a way for you to be free of that burden.

In Mark 14:33-34, Jesus feels overwhelmed by the weight of the pain He’s feeling, stating that His soul was “overwhelmed with sorrow to the point of death”. Rather than hiding this, He asked three of His disciples to keep watch for Him– to look out for Him. Jesus was deeply vulnerable with those that He trusted in a moment of great burden. Who in your life can you look to when your heart feels overwhelmed?

How to Find Purpose | Multiply

Claude Hickman — Sun, 30 Jul 2023 06:00:00 -0700

What does it mean to multiply your faith?

The strategy of multiplication is exactly how Jesus spread the good news of the gospel over 2,000 years ago. Rather than using His divine power to make everyone believe, He instead allowed people to spread His message across the globe through the process of discipleship.

2 Timothy 2:2 says "And the things you have heard me say in the presence of many witnesses entrust to reliable people who will also be qualified to teach others" (NIV). As a church we need more people to begin discipling others, because without that, we will never reach those that are far away.

How to be a Spiritual Leader | Multiply

Fredo Ramos — Sun, 23 Jul 2023 09:07:14 -0700

Jesus invited people to become disciples - apprentices of his way of life. In His time, people chose a rabbi to follow and model their life after. Do you have a model that you are following as you build your life? Who's example are you looking to for guidance on how to make decisions?

One of Jesus' key teachings that helps us consider how well we are following Jesus - modeling our life after His - is faithfulness. In a world with so many options for our time and focus, Jesus teaches that consistency in our actions marks us as his disciples. Over time, consistency shapes our character and makes us someone worth following.

Sandals Church — Sun, 16 Jul 2023 13:13:06 -0700

The Bible's plan for Christians is that they would become leaders and teachers - people who know their faith, practice it and help others grow in theirs. How we become these leaders and teachers in the faith is by following Christians who are ahead of us and are willing to participate in our growing process. This is discipleship. Your challenge is to find someone ahead of you in the faith and follow them as they follow Christ.

It's human nature to experience change, but what do you do when you stop growing?

True transformation and growth will occur when we align ourselves with the mission given to us by Jesus. By recognizing our need for personal growth, embracing the call to multiply through relationships and discipleship, and surrendering to God's transformative work, we can fully embrace our mission and experience everything God has in store for us.

How to Bounce Back From Failure | Encountering Jesus

Jeff Whye — Sun, 02 Jul 2023 06:00:00 -0700

Have you ever felt like your failures disqualify you for being used by God? You're not alone - and the good news is that real encounters with Jesus invite us into new identity and new hope.

In the Gospel of John, the story of Jesus' disciple Peter is a story about a character who wrestles with failure and who is built up again by Jesus. This means for us that Jesus wants to speak to our identity and turn our failures into something new.

How Do I Abide in Christ? | Encountering Jesus

Fredo Ramos — Sun, 25 Jun 2023 06:00:00 -0700

What needs to be cut out of your life to make more room for Jesus?

In John chapter 15, Jesus states "I am the true vine, and my Father is the gardener. He cuts off every branch in me that bears no fruit". This analogy of a vine and branches is used as a way to teach Jesus' disciples (and us) about the importance of abiding in Him. Through this act, we find ourselves "bearing fruit", or in other words, experiencing growth in our character and in our spiritual lives.

How Can Jesus Heal My Wounds? | Encountering Jesus

Fredo Ramos — Sun, 18 Jun 2023 06:00:00 -0700

Does the Bible have anything to say about finding healing from trauma? It does - we just don't go deep enough. When you encounter Jesus, you encounter the one who the Scriptures say heals our wounds by his wounds...

In The Gospel of John chapter 9, Jesus miraculously heals a man who was born blind, and what unfolds from the encounter is an unearthing of community rejection, religious barriers and trauma. In this strange story of healing, you can see how Jesus is interested in exposing our pain and trauma in order to give us true healing. This is a powerful story and message on hope for our own healing, and it is also a challenge to the church about being a place of safety for those looking for God, rather than a source of pain.

How Does Jesus Provide for Me? | Encountering Jesus

Fredo Ramos — Sun, 11 Jun 2023 06:00:00 -0700

One of the main themes of The Gospel of John - and one of the things Jesus is most famous for are his miracles and signs. The Gospel of John details miracles Jesus accomplished among people and outlines what they mean and point to.

In the Gospel of John chapter 5, Jesus does a strange miracle of multiplying bread for a crowd. What unfolds from there is a deep and divisive teaching about how people miss the revelation of who Jesus is because they are focusing on the wrong thing - the miracle, not the miracle giver. Jesus' bread multiplication miracle has far more to do with our spiritual needs than our physical ones!

What To Do When Jesus Says No | Encountering Jesus

Fredo Ramos — Sun, 04 Jun 2023 06:00:00 -0700

The Gospel of John features situations where Jesus was approached by someone with a question or issue and instead of giving a simple response, Jesus offers a story or a sign to provide a deeper, satisfying and more clarifying answer.

In The Gospel of John chapter 2, the author John records Jesus' first miraculous sign - turning water into wine at a wedding. Sound strange? People are used to stories of Jesus healing the sick and the poor - but divine intervention for more wine? What does this story tell us about Jesus and our relationship to him? For one thing, God doesn't fit in our categories. For another, God seems to want to tell a deeper story about humanity through weddings...

How Jesus Heals My Deepest Wounds | She/Her

Matt Brown — Sun, 28 May 2023 06:00:00 -0700

The Gospels are full of interesting stories where people encounter Jesus and are profoundly changed. The famous story of The Woman At The Well in The Gospel of John chapter 4 details the story of a woman with baggage and deep relational hurt who encounters Jesus. The story shows how Jesus is able to get to the heart of matters when we encounter him.

How to Hear the Voice of God | She/Her

Matt Brown — Sun, 21 May 2023 06:00:00 -0700

Have you ever felt like you heard God tell you to do something? What has that experience been like? Many people have weird experiences where they think they've encountered God, but don't know how to make sense of it. Christians believe God speaks through the Bible, and that God's words are powerful - life changing even! There is an incredible story in The Old Testament about a woman named Huldah who was a prophet and who knew the Scriptures at a time when the rest of the men and leaders in her culture did not. God uses Huldah in a powerful way to convict and confront God's people who had turned to sin. The lesson for you in this story is - do you know the word of God?

A Story That's Not Just For Mothers | She/Her

Melody Workman — Sun, 14 May 2023 06:00:00 -0700

The stories we have in the Bible teach us how to live by inviting us to see ourselves in the characters and experiences. In the Old Testament, there is a famous story of a woman named Abigail who through her humility and wisdom overcomes an intense and trying circumstance. Abigail is a powerful example for us of a woman in the Bible who led and succeeded by her character. This story invites us to look at ourselves and how we process hard experiences. In God's economy, the wise and humble rise above.

Why We Need Women to Lead | She/Her

Alfredo Ramos — Sun, 07 May 2023 06:00:00 -0700

Gender roles are controversial in culture and in the church. The Bible paints a powerful picture of women leadership and how men can respect and follow that leadership. More than recognizing a woman's ability to lead, the Bible shows that God does big things when men honor the voices of women and recognize God's calling in their life. What would happen in this cultural moment if in the church men were sensitive to the call of God on women's lives? The church can be a completely unique space in culture if we catch this vision.

What does the Bible say about what it means to be a woman?

She/Her is a teaching series on what the Bible has to say about God's design for femininity, who some of the key female figures are in the story of the Bible, and what those stories teach us about the gift of women today.

We all want to know where we belong, and Christianity’s teaching on baptism is a unique answer to this longing. When a person gets baptized they are identifying with Jesus’ death and resurrection to new life. It’s deep.

What is the Meaning of Passover? | Old Rules for a New Life

Matt Brown — Sun, 02 Apr 2023 06:00:00 -0700

There's a story in The Old Testament about an event the nation of Israel experiences called, The Passover, and it's all about finding God's protection from judgment. The Passover event eventually becomes a holiday that the nation of Israel celebrates throughout their history - a time of remembering a truth bigger than ourselves: that God wants to save us from judgment. Passover is essential for understanding the easter story.

Matt Brown — Sun, 26 Mar 2023 06:00:00 -0700

The 10th and final commandment in The 10 Commandments in the book of Exodus is to not covet your neighbor's...stuff. Their life, their relationships, their possessions, etc. This commandment gets at the heart level: if you're comparing yourself to others, you're not becoming the best version of yourself you could be.

"Thou shall not steal..." The 8th commandment in The 10 Commandments in the book of Exodus. It seems straightforward enough to follow - but what if there are levels to obeying or breaking this command that we easily miss? More than just material possessions, do you steal opportunity from others? Do you steal honor, joy, and recognition of others? If we're brave enough to face ourselves, we may see the command to not steal in a whole new light that helps us live the new life we've been called to.

You are not what you do occasionally. You are what you do consistently. One of the most transformative spiritual practices you can experience is the sabbath - a regular dedicated 24-hour period of rest where you stop working and connect with God. The Sabbath was introduced to the nation of Israel in the book of Exodus, and its wisdom is still profound for our world today. What if your lack of being able to rest says more about what your life is truly defined by than you want to admit?

When you hear the word, "God" what do you think of? The chances are high that whatever comes to your mind is probably related to your experience with people, and a lot of times people fail at representing God. The 3rd commandment found in the book of Exodus, "Do not take the Lord's name in vain." - is not a command about language or things you shouldn't say. It's a command to represent God in the way you live your life. That's a much higher calling and standard than avoiding cussing. It has to do with how you live your life if you call yourself a follower of God.

Kingdom come...what does that mean? One of the things Jesus taught his followers to pray was for God's kingdom to come. That language is often lost on our modern ears, but what Jesus is getting at is that we ought to pray for and hope for the day when God is king of our world.

Do you ever feel like you need to talk to God, but aren’t sure where to start? Prayer can feel intimidating, like it’s something only the really religious and dedicated know how to do. Jesus said prayer was simple. He said it was simple because God doesn’t expect a template or perfect process; He expects us wherever we are.

How Can I Begin to Pray? | How to Pray

Alfredo Ramos — Sun, 05 Jun 2022 06:30:00 -0700

Every time there is a traumatic event in our culture we all see the same comment. "Thoughts and prayers go out to the victims of ______." And if we're being honest, that can feel really disingenuous and insensitive to the time. We want action. But, what if there is something to those prayers? What if it's inviting us into a real conversation with the God that created the world.

This week we're starting our new series How to Pray: A Conversation with God. Pastor Alfredo Ramos will kick us off with his sermon How Can I Begin to Pray. We hope you enjoy this message!

The Power of Our Worship | The Power of Us

Matt Brown — Mon, 30 May 2022 06:30:00 -0700

Why do christians sing songs before their messages? Why do they even call it worship? Isn't it a little weird?

Worship before messages allows us to come together and prepare our minds and hearts for the message we're going to hear. It gives us an opportunity to relax, take a deep breath and remove any distractions from the week or the world outside.

As we wrap up our final message in The Power of Us series, we're joined by Pastor Matt with his message titled The Power of Our Worship.

The Power of Our Teaching | The Power of Us

Fredo Ramos — Mon, 02 May 2022 06:30:00 -0700

It's easy as Christians to be in a constant state of learning. We can frequently be taking in sermons, worship experiences and bible study plans without ever putting into practice the faith we are learning about. How could our faith change if we started teaching others about it? Instead of casting judgement, what if we took the time to come alongside young believers and taught them what it means and looks like to be a follower of Jesus?

We are joined again by Pastor Alfredo Ramos as he preaches on The Power of Our Teaching!

--Power to face everything that the world throws at me
--The mission of God that I was made for
-To be saved, I need to believe: (I am a sinner that needs to be saved, Jesus died for my sins on the cross, Jesus rose from the dead, Jesus is the Son of God, I am ready to live my life for Jesus)
-Because I believe: (I am willing to stand for Jesus, I am willing to publicly confess that I believe)

We have seen God move in powerful, tangible ways throughout this series. We've seen people be healed, marriages be restored and life changing dedications to follow Jesus.

How Jesus Heals Mental Illness | The Healer

Throughout the pandemic our country saw mental health issues skyrocket. Adults and children alike struggled and worried about what the future might hold for them. Traditionally, the church has not cared for mental illness well, blaming it on lack of faith and prayer. However, even though society has advanced to create the most care for mental illness, we still see the problem growing every day. So what do we do?

Real Spirituality: Psychedelics and Their Role in Spirituality

Adam Atchinson — Thu, 17 Mar 2022 06:30:00 -0700

We saw an interesting trend online when Joe Rogan began sharing his experiences using DMT, using psychedelics to access the spiritual, the spiritual world, or just something that is beyond our physical and mental realm.

While many stories can be shared of good experiences, the bad experiences aren't nearly talked about as often. What if using these drugs has a negative side affect? What if the spiritual world isn't as clean and welcoming as some celebrities make it seem?

Check out our newest episode of Real Spirituality: Using Psychedelics to Access the Spiritual as Pastor Adam Atchinson sits down with our good friend Tyler Schaefer to discuss psychedelics and their role in spirituality.

God's Will For Healing | The Healer

Matt Brown — Mon, 14 Mar 2022 10:05:39 -0700

When we ask for healing, God responds with either: yes, no or wait. The first two can be easy—we got our answer! But "wait" can be the hardest one. Sometimes a "wait" is an invitation to a deeper relationship with Christ. Sometimes a "wait" is for situations outside of our control. Regardless of the circumstances, a "wait" answer to our prayer shows that God has a plan bigger than us. As we head into week five of our series The Healer: His Name is Jesus, Pastor Matt shares God's will for healing and how we should approach him with our requests.

Pastor Matt Brown talks about:
-We will discover God's will for healing by:
--Personally asking Jesus for a miracle
--Searching for God's will while I wait
--Spending time with the healer
--Spending time praying with my church family
-When you pray for someone:
--Keep it short and honest
--Listen for the voice of God’s Spirit
-To embrace the mystery of God's will on some things

Waiting on Your Miracle | The Healer

Matt Brown — Mon, 07 Mar 2022 06:30:00 -0800

God answers prayers in 3 ways: yes, no or wait. Yes and no are at least straightforward answers, but "wait" can be tough. If you're praying for a miracle and you feel like God put you in a place of waiting, be encouraged. God has a lot to say in the waiting.

It's a new year and what if instead of stressing on new resolutions, you simply answered the question what kind of person do I want to become? This is where the teachings of Jesus get interesting. Jesus gave his followers practices, rhythms, habits to follow that He knew would change them. What if we started the new year by considering our habits and imagining what could happen if we adopt some of the spiritual practices of Jesus?

A Vision We Believe Can Reach the Next Generation

Sandals Church — Mon, 29 Nov 2021 05:00:00 -0800

In celebration of our Giving Tuesday campaign to raise $500,000 to refurbish a struggling church in Santa Rosa, CA and relaunch it as a Sandals Church campus, we created a special bonus episode of throwback sermon clips from 2010 of Pastor Matt Brown teaching about the vision of being real with ourselves, God and others. Over the years Sandals Church has grown a lot. But our goal has never changed: help people become real with themselves, God and others.

The idea for creating a church that was about being real with ourselves, God and others started in 1997 in a small living room in Riverside, CA. Since then the vision of being real has spread to reach and connect with people and communities literally all over the world - and we believe it's a vision that will reach the next generation in the west. That's why we're chasing after a crazy goal of launching a Sandals Church in Northern California - because it's a part of our country that desperately needs a movement of authenticity.

Would you join us by being part of our Giving Tuesday campaign to launch a Sandals Church in Santa Rosa, CA and bring the vision of being real to Northern California? Visit https://rogofoundation.com/givingtuesday to make a financial gift! Every gift goes toward the refurbishing and replanting efforts of Sandals Church Santa Rosa. Together we can do something remarkable and help spread this vision of being real to the next generation.

How to Discover God's Grace

Matt Brown & Alfredo Ramos — Mon, 22 Nov 2021 06:30:00 -0800

We live in an era of outrage. Constant controversies and left versus right dominate our culture. Tragically, the church mirrors this state of affairs in many ways. The key ingredient we're missing in all of this is grace. We've fallen from grace, dividing over issues and failing to come together and be the people God has called us to be. If Christians can remember the grace of God that first called them, we can find healing.
