Radical Mercy | 2 Samuel 9
Palm Sunday at Together We Church | The Path of Grace This Palm Sunday, we trace the powerful journey of Jesus from Bethany to Jerusalem—the path lined with palm branches, leading not just to a city, but to the cross. What began as a celebration became the road to redemption. As we follow Jesus’ steps through the Mount of Olives, past the Garden of Gethsemane, and into the Temple, we’re reminded: the path of palms became the path of grace. In this message, Pastor Mills also walks us through 2 Samuel 9—the story of Mephibosheth, a man forgotten and broken, yet invited to sit at the king’s table. Just like Mephibosheth, many of us feel unworthy, overlooked, or stuck in our past. But God’s grace says otherwise. Key Themes: • Your past doesn’t cancel your future. • You can’t fall too far for grace to find you. • Grace doesn’t just forgive—it restores. • You don’t earn a seat at the table—it’s already been paid for. We also revisit powerful New Testament encounters—Peter, the Centurion, the Prodigal Son, the Thief on the Cross—each one a picture of how Jesus responds to unworthiness with invitation, restoration, and love. And you’ll hear a powerful, real-life testimony from our church family about how God’s grace still changes lives today. ⸻ 📖 Scripture References: • Matthew 21, Mark 11, Luke 19, John 12 • Zechariah 9:9 • 2 Samuel 9 • Luke 5, Luke 15, Matthew 8, Matthew 15, Luke 23 • 2 Corinthians 5:17 💬 Need prayer?

God is not the 'man upstairs' | 2 Samuel 6:1-19
🔥 CROWNED BUT GROUNDED | The Return of God’s Presence | 2 Samuel 6 David is no longer just the shepherd boy—he’s now the crowned King of Israel. But his story is far from over. In this powerful message from our Crowned & Grounded series, we unpack the early days of David’s reign and his passionate pursuit to bring back the Ark of the Covenant—God’s presence—into the heart of Jerusalem. The journey wasn’t smooth. Mistakes were made. A good motive met with the wrong method led to tragedy. But what followed is a story of repentance, reverence, and revival. 💡 Here’s the truth: You can have the right heart and still do things the wrong way. You can want God’s presence but mishandle His holiness. You can grow casual with the sacred—and drift far from the center. But here’s the good news: 👉 God isn’t done with you. 👉 He’s not waiting to punish—He’s waiting to restore. 👉 Like David, you can return to the presence, rebuild the altar, and rekindle the fire. In this message, we dive into: • The power of obedience over convenience • Why casual faith is dangerous • How worship isn’t about appearance, but surrender • The blessing that comes when we make room for God again 🎯 Don’t just go through the motions. Don’t treat the holy as ordinary. Let’s put God back at the center—where He belongs. 💬 Are you making room for the presence of God? 📖 Scripture Reference: 2 Samuel 6 👇 Drop a comment if this spoke to you.

Partial obedience is disobedience | 1 Samuel 31
THIS WEEK’S MESSAGE: “Crowned Yet Grounded” 👑 Saul had partial obedience (which is still disobedience), but David was faithful even when the odds were against him. Today, we dive into 1 Samuel 31, where Saul’s choices finally catch up with him. His fear, pride, and lack of surrender led to his downfall. 🚨 FEAR IS A TERRIBLE LEADER. 🚨 • Fear doesn’t lead you into peace—it leads to isolation. • Fear doesn’t lead you into purpose—it leads to desperation. • Fear doesn’t lead you into victory—it leads to destruction. 📖 2 Timothy 1:7 – “God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and a sound mind.” 🔥 If fear has been making your decisions… 🔥 If fear has been louder than God’s voice… 🔥 It’s time to kick fear off the throne and let faith take the lead! ⸻ PRIDE vs. SURRENDER Saul wanted God’s favor but didn’t want to obey. He wanted God’s protection but didn’t want holiness. He wanted God’s will but didn’t want a relationship with God. 🙅 Pride says, “Wait. I have plenty of time.” 📖 James 4:14 – “You do not even know what will happen tomorrow.” 🙅 Pride says, “What will people think?” 📖 Galatians 1:10 – “Am I trying to win the approval of human beings, or of God?” 🙅 Pride says, “I’ll fix myself first.” 📖 Romans 3:23 – “For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.” But Jesus says, “FOLLOW ME.” 🚨 Don’t die empty. Don’t die without Jesus. 🚨 💬 Drop a comment if this message spoke to you. 📲 If you’re ready to take the next step in baptism, let us know in the link below! #FaithOverFear #JesusSaves #TWC #Baptism #GodIsMoving #CrownedYetGrounded
