And how can we stay close to God in these moments, and accelerate the timetable for our lives to turn around.

"God Rewards Seekers" | Pastor Peter Haas

Substance Church September 23rd

The Psalms are often filled with overdramatic prayers. After sharing a few of his own, Pastor Peter discusses the power of honest prayers. Many of our greatest miracles are preceded by honest prayers. This is why almost every chapter of the book of Acts has something to say about prayer. And when we truly see how little we can control in life, prayer becomes one of our best tools. But do you use it? Thanks for checking out this message today!

"Put Out into Deep Water" | First Wednesday September 2024 | Pastor Peter Haas

Substance Church September 5th

It’s impossible to truly hear and experience the strategy of the Lord when we’re filled with fear. Many of us imagine ourselves to be trusting in God will all of our hearts; yet, the presence of fear and insecurity usually tell us a different story. So what does it really look like to be led of the Lord. How do we know when our “own understanding” is back in the drivers seat? (Prov. 3:5-6; Isa.30:21; 2 Sam.5:23-25; 1 Sam.30:1-8) Thanks for checking out this message today! At Substance, one of our core values is to create community.

Leaning On Your Own Understanding | Pastor Peter Haas

Substance Church August 26th

Did you know that, no where in the Bible did Christ “descend into hell?” Did you know that the “Old Covenant” is technically not fully passed away. And the New Covenant of grace is technically older than the Old Covenant? If any of this sounds confusing to you, it’s because you don’t understand how the covenants of the Bible progress through the story of Abraham and Moses. Get ready to see the Gospel in a way that finally makes sense! (Luke 23:43; Gal.3:23; 1 Cor. 11:23-25) Thanks for checking out this message today!

"The Mountain View of the Bible" | Diving Deeper | Pastor Peter Haas

Substance Church June 17th

(Part 2 in the series, “Diving Deeper - I can’t believe I didn’t know that!”) One of the big theological and political debates in the days of Christ was about two mountains: One in Jerusalem versus one in Samaria. This debate became the source of a lot of politics, racism, and theological tension. Yet, whenever Jesus encountered it, he took a unique approach with people. After diving into a few complicated texts regarding this, Pastor Peter gives us insights on how to reach a politically divided culture of fear.” (1 John 4:8; 1 John 4:18; Mark 11; Jeremiah 7; Isa.56) Thanks for checking out this message today!
