Change of Heart

About this series

A healthy tree doesn’t strain to produce good fruit—it happens naturally from within. In the same way, Jesus invites us into a life of inside-out transformation, where the fruit of love, mercy, and integrity grows not through rule-keeping but through a renewed heart. In this series, we’ll journey through the Sermon on the Mount to learn how Jesus addresses the roots of anger, lust, and bitterness and cultivates the kind of heart where His kingdom flourishes.

About this message

What happens when the fairy-tale promises of marriage meet real-life struggles? In a world where divorce is common and marriages often falter, how does Jesus speak into the pain and stigma?

Pastor Scotty continues our “Change of Heart” series with a compassionate look at marriage, divorce, and God’s grace. Exploring Jesus’ words in the Sermon on the Mount, this message reveals how He challenged cultural norms to protect the vulnerable and address the heart’s deepest struggles.

From flawed marriages in the Bible to the hope of second chances, this sermon offers grace for the broken, whether your marriage is strong, struggling, or has ended. Discover a God who turns broken vows into opportunities for redemption and calls us to love with humility and mercy.

Come as you are—married, single, or divorced—and find hope in a God who heals and restores.
