Eastridge ChurchThe Joy of Decreasing | Kurt PetersheimHe must increase, but we must decrease.In a world that’s constantly telling us we need to grow, succeed, and become greater, Scripture shows us a paradox: true peace, happiness, and freedom come when we learn to let go — when we become less — and let Him become more.In this message, we see how choosing humility brings us:Greater significance in God’s eyes. (Matthew 11:11)Fullness of joy. (John 3:29-30)Grace from God.

He offers His strength, His presence, and His peace to overcome our anxieties.Join us as we reflect on the truth that fear is n...2025-01-1311 minEastridge ChurchLove | 1 John | Kurt PetersheimIn this message we are reminded of the incredible love God has for us—a love that is unconditional, generous, and intentional. Jesus didn’t just talk about love; He demonstrated it by removing every barrier between us and God. As followers of Christ, we’re called to reflect that love in our lives.Let’s love others not based on what they’ve done or how we feel, but because God loved us first. Let’s be generous with our love, giving freely as God gave His Son for us.
