Prayer is one of the most powerful gifts God has given us — but many of us still find it hard to pray, or we’re not sure how to start. In this message, Pastor Luke unpacks why we pray, how Jesus teaches us to pray in Luke 11, and what it means to keep asking, seeking, and knocking. We explore the Lord’s Prayer line by line, discovering prayer as conversation with our…

Flags are just pieces of cloth — but they stand for something far bigger. They represent identity, history, pride, and belonging. This week at Hudson’s Hope Chapel, we’re talking about two “flags” Jesus gave His church: baptism and communion. Baptism is the bold declaration that we belong to Jesus — that our old life is gone and we’ve been raised with Him to new life.…

The assassination of Charlie Kirk remind us just how broken our world really is — and how real the battle between good and evil can be. In this message, we unpack Ephesians 6:10–12 to see that there is a war going on beyond what we can see with our eyes — a war between the kingdom of God and the powers of evil. We’ll explore: – The reality of the war we are in — and…

Why are you here? Not in the metaphorical, philosophical sense, but in a very literal sense. As Christians, we know our purpose, and our identity. But the when the rubber meets the road, the harder question can be fighting out what that looks like practically. Why are you sitting where you are, in…

What is the Church for? What are we for? In this week’s message, we explore the heart of God’s mission—and how the Church is called to be a part of it. From Genesis to Revelation, we see that God’s plan has always been global: to bring salvation and blessing to all nations through His people. In…

The Bible encourages us to share our stories, but why? We think about the power of testimony and story in scripture.

Can you really “love Jesus, but not the church?” This week we explore the doctrine of the Church—not just as a building or a weekly event, but as the living, gathered body of Christ. We confront the growing trend of being “spiritual but not religious,” and respond to the common claim: “I love…

What’s the purpose of life? In this message, we confront one of life’s biggest questions and discover how Scripture gives us a clear, joyful, and God-glorifying answer. While many voices today suggest that Christianity is about rule-following, self-sacrifice, or simply trying to get to heaven, the Bible paints a far richer picture. Rooted in the first question of the…

Was the cross a last-minute fix? A divine reaction to a world gone wrong? In this message, we explore the sweeping story of salvation—from its promise in Eden to its fulfillment in Christ, its offer to us today, and its final glory still to come. This isn’t a backup plan. Salvation has always been…

What does it mean to be human? Perhaps even more importantly… what does it mean to be created as human, in the image of God? And why does that often seem so broken? This message explores one of the most foundational—and misunderstood—Christian doctrines: the nature of humanity. Drawing from…
