What do you do when it feels like your prayers are hitting the ceiling? When silence stretches long and the waiting wears you down, it’s tempting to assume God isn’t listening. But in Luke 18, Jesus tells a story that speaks directly to the ache of unanswered prayer.

In this message, Pastor Steve reminds us that prayer isn’t about nagging God into submission—it’s about holding onto His heart when life tempts us to let go. We serve a Father who listens, who cares, and who moves in His perfect time. This isn’t about prayer techniques—it’s about trust.

If you’re weary from waiting, this sermon is for you. Keep praying. Keep trusting. He’s worth it.

Most of us walk around with quiet pressure in our souls—the need to appear put-together, to be “good enough,” to prove we’re worthy of love. But in Luke 18, Jesus tells a story that lovingly exposes this tendency.

In this message, Pastor Steve invites us to see ourselves clearly: not as people who need a little polishing, but as people who need mercy. The parable of the Pharisee and the Tax Collector isn’t just about two men praying—it’s a mirror for every heart. Do we come to God with our resumé, or with our need?

This sermon is a call to drop the mask, stop striving, and come home to grace.

When was the last time you forgave someone from your heart—not because they deserved it, but because you remembered the mercy God gave you? In this honest and powerful message, Pastor Steve leads us through Jesus’ parable of the unforgiving servant and invites us to confront the subtle pride that clings to our own record while holding others hostage to theirs.

We all crave grace, but extending it can feel impossible—especially when wounds run deep. This sermon reminds us that the weight of our own forgiven debt reshapes how we treat those who’ve hurt us. If you’ve been hurt, hardened, or haunted by resentment, listen in. Mercy isn’t a theory—it’s a way of life for those who’ve been changed by the Gospel.
