The Church of Eleven22

What if following Jesus isn’t about learning more—but about leaving what’s comfortable?
Jesus begins His public ministry not from a place of striving, but from the Father’s approval—and then He immediately goes to work. In Matthew 4, we see Jesus fulfill ancient prophecy, bring light into darkness, proclaim that the kingdom of heaven is here now, and call ordinary, unlikely people to join Him on a rescue mission for the world.
This message challenges us to stop delaying the kingdom, to embody it by pushing back darkness with light, and to respond to Jesus’ simple but costly invitation: “Follow Me.” From fishermen dropping their nets to crowds bringing their brokenness to Jesus, we’re reminded that discipleship is not a spectator sport—it’s a life of obedience, community, and mission.
What might Jesus be asking you to lay down so you can take your next step of obedience?

What if the greatest spiritual battles you face aren’t happening around you—but inside your mind?

Right after His baptism, Jesus is led into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil—revealing a truth many of us learn the hard way: our deepest valleys often come on the heels of our highest spiritual moments.
In Episode 3 of Heaven to Earth, we walk through Matthew 4 and uncover how the enemy works, why temptation doesn’t disappear as you grow in Christ, and how Satan’s primary strategy has always been the same—attacking your identity with lies. Through Scripture, Jesus shows us how to stand firm, renew our minds, and fight back with truth by declaring, “It is written.”

What lies have you been believing—and what would change if you stood on God’s truth instead of the whispers?

In this message from Matthew 3, we encounter John the Baptist crying out in the wilderness with a simple but confrontational call: repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand. As Jesus steps into the Jordan to be baptized, we see the upside-down nature of God’s kingdom on full display—where humility comes before power, obedience before recognition, and identity before performance.

From repentance and fruit-bearing faith to sanctification, salvation, and the refining fire of the Holy Spirit, this passage invites us to re-examine how we’re doing life and whose way we’re truly following. John prepared the way for Jesus’ first coming—and now we are called to prepare people for His return.

Where might God be asking you to change direction so heaven can break into earth through your life?

What if God never intended His blessings to stop with you—but to move through you to the world?

As we begin Season 1: Heaven to Earth and launch our year-long study through the book of Matthew, Vision Weekend sets the vision for how we will live as a church in 2026. From Jesus’ announcement that “the kingdom of heaven is at hand” to the Great Commission, Matthew reveals that God’s plan has always been to bless His people so that all nations might be blessed.

This message reminds us that Jesus didn’t just rescue us from sin—He rescued us for His mission. Through the stories of outsiders, ordinary people, and faithful obedience, we are invited to give God a year, trust Him fully, and join Him in bringing the gospel to every neighbor and every nation. The question is simple but costly: What is God telling you to do, and how will you respond?

What if eternity isn’t escaping this world—but living in a resurrected one, fully renewed by Jesus?

For many of us, our childhood picture of heaven looked more like floating on clouds than living in a place that feels real, physical, and gloriously renewed. But Scripture tells a far better story. In Revelation 21, we’re given a vision of where everything is ultimately headed—a new heaven and a new earth where Jesus reigns, peace is complete, perfection is normal, and God Himself dwells personally with His people.

In this message, we trace the arc from Christmas to eternity, from the birth of Jesus to His promised return. You’ll learn what the Bible actually teaches about heaven, resurrection, and the future God has secured for those who trust in Jesus. No more fear. No more pain. No more distance between us and God. Just full joy, full presence, and full life forever.
