Wesley Students Podcast"What Grows Here": Week 1 | MakaylaWeek one of What Grows Here begins at the root: love. Love isn't just one fruit among many — it's the soil everything else grows out of, shaping who you are becoming. When the Spirit is at work, we are becoming people rooted in love — and that root changes everything.

Wesley Students Podcast"Is it Wise?" | AaronAs we begin a new year, the question isn't whether we'll make choices—it's whether we'll make wise ones. This sermon explores how biblical wisdom helps us see life clearly and navigate everyday decisions with purpose and clarity. Rooted in Proverbs, we're challenged to filter our choices through God's Word by asking one simple question: Is it the wise thing to do? When we do, our relationships, time, and words begin to reflect the life God intends.

Wesley Students PodcastWhen You Have Everything… But God Wants Something | Aaron TalbottIn a season when our lives feel packed with school, sports, pressure, and expectations, we often forget to make room for the One Christmas is actually about. In Luke 1, Mary shows us that Christmas doesn't begin with excitement — it begins with surrender. This message invites us to put the most important things first and trust God with the rest.

Wesley Students PodcastBaptism Night | Aaron TalbottIn this message from Baptism Night, we explore God's promise in Ezekiel to remove our hearts of stone and give us hearts of flesh—a heart-transplant grace that baptism points us toward. As we celebrate new baptisms and remember our own, we're invited to let God soften, renew, and reshape us into responsive clay in His hands.

Wesley Students PodcastDisappointment Does Not Win | AaronHave you ever tried your best & it still does not work out? During this message, Aaron talks about disappointment through the story of Jeremiah. Disappointment does not win because God never leaves us.

Wesley Students PodcastGhost Stories | AaronIn a world obsessed with fear—from horror movies and haunted houses to the quiet anxieties we carry inside—what do we do when the storm is real and the waves are crashing? This message looks at Matthew 14, where the disciples are terrified on the water until Jesus shows up in the middle of the storm. We unpack how to remember that Jesus is with us, remain focused on Him instead of our fear, and recognize Him as the One who calms every storm.

Wesley Students PodcastThe Fruit Tells the Truth | AaronIn this message, Pastor Aaron teaches that "fruit tells the truth." From Jesus' picture in John 15 of the vine and branches to Paul's description in Galatians 5 of the fruit of the Spirit, we see that real life-change isn't about trying harder but about staying connected to Jesus. When we remain in Him, the evidence shows up in love, joy, peace, and the kind of fruit that points people straight to Christ.

Wesley Students PodcastLove That Does Things | AaronThis week's message focuses on Paul's reminder in 1 Corinthians 13 that without love, even the most impressive gifts or sacrifices mean nothing. Love isn't just a feeling or a caption—it's action: patience, kindness, forgiveness, protecting, and persevering. In a heavy week when words aren't enough, we're called to let the world see the proof of our faith through the way we love people.

Wesley Students PodcastSunday Night Live | Aaron | Leaking JesusHow do people know you've been with Jesus? In this message from Acts 4, Pastor Aaron shares a hilarious Publix story, connects it to Peter and John's boldness before the Sanhedrin, and reminds us that real discipleship isn't about information—it's about transformation. When we spend time with Jesus, it gives us courage, makes our faith noticeable, and moves us to action in ways people can't help but see.

Wesley Students PodcastDeep Waters | Aaron God doesn't promise that we won't go through deep waters, He promises His presence in them. In your storms, the One who commands the seas is in the boat with you. Jesus calls ordinary fishermen to follow Him and fish for people. The call to mission doesn't pause when life gets hard - Jesus' "follow me" still applies in the deep waters. Fishing for people doesn't mean having a perfect life; it means following Jesus while you're still figuring things out.

Wesley Students PodcastSneak Peek Night | Baby Food Faith We all have a next step, right? One of the things about faith and walking with Jesus is the ability to care for our own self and make sure that we are eating at the right table. I remember as a young kid at Thanksgiving, I would sit at the "Kids table." Being at the kids table is good for a season, but I remember the desire to move up to the adult table. In our walk with Jesus, we should always be growing, always be asking, and always be searching. How do we mature in our faith? How to we g...

Wesley Students Podcast"Upside Down: Sermons From The Mount" – Part 3 | Salt & Light As we approach Ash Wednesday and the Lenten season, it's time to take some self-inventory. Where in my faith am I strong? Where am I week? Am I compassionate? Do I care? Am I humble? Do I seek peace or do I seek to stir the pot? Our text tonight is about being Salt and Light. Jesus lays out commands for how we are to differential ourselves from everyone else – not so we can be exclusive, but so that we might bring this Upside-Down Kingdom to those around us.

Wesley Students Podcast"Upside Down: Sermons From The Mount" – Part 2 | The Extra MileThe extra mile reflects the character of Jesus. It isn't always easy to go the extra mile. To do something for someone else requires time, energy, care, concern, effort. However, the second mile is where we see Jesus in ourselves and other people. The extra mile is where we see Jesus at work in and through us. It's where we reflect His love in a way that makes people ask why.

In it, Jesus lays out the plan for this new movement he's about to start. The words of Jesus seem upside down in today's world, but if we care to ponder and apply them to our own life, might we find what we are so often looking...

Wesley Students PodcastNew Year, Now What? A Call to NextThroughout life, there's always something coming up next. While we naturally look ahead in so many areas of life, we have to ask ourselves: Do we have the same mindset when it comes to our relationship with Jesus?

We take a look at two accounts in Mark where the disciples are caught in the "meantime," waiting for Jesus to lead them to what is next.

Wesley Students PodcastNew Year, Now What? Week 2: A Call to Now | Aaron Talbott We can have a NEW year or we can have ANOTHER year, right? As we proceed into 2025, can we reevaluate our answer to a question posed to Jesus' closest relationships? Jesus pauses before journeying into the heart of Jerusalem and impending death to place this question at the very forefront of importance, for the disciple's response would dictate the future of the church. It's a question that still begs of us today.

What nets do we need to drop in our lives in order to respond to the unique and special call that God has put on our lives? Whether it's in the classroom, on the field, in the gym, on the stage, or at our place of work, what new thing is happening… and how can we listen closely and respond as "deep-end" discip...

One of the most common lies teenagers tell themselves is, "I'm not enough." Whether it's feeling inadequate, unqualified, or unworthy, this myth plays on repeat in the minds of many.
