Destroyed for Lack of Knowledge

🎙️Christian Lee (2025 September 14, Sunday, Storyline Church)
We are swimming in an ocean of information but thirsting for knowledge. Hosea 4 calls us back to the one thing that holds life together: the knowledge of God. This isn’t just head knowledge about God—it’s information and intimacy, law and loyalty, doctrine and devotion, head and heart. Truth lived out in love. But where Israel and humanity fails, there is One who is sent to justify many by his knowledge. And Scripture prophesies he will return one day to fill the whole earth with the knowledge of God as the waters cover the sea.
When the knowledge of God is lost, everything fractures. But when the knowledge of God is restored, everything flourishes.
📖 Scripture: Hosea 4; Isaiah 53:11, 6; Habakkuk 2:14; Jeremiah 31:34

Bought at a Price

🎙️Christian Lee (2025 September 7, Sunday, Storyline Church)
In one of the shortest chapters in the Bible, we see one of the clearest pictures of God’s love. Hosea buys back his unfaithful wife — and through this, we get a glimpse of the gospel: God’s love pursues us, redemption comes at a price, and he restores us to oneness with him.
📖 Scripture: Hosea 3:1–5

Every Valley Has a Door

🎙️Christian Lee (2025 August 31, Sunday, Storyline Church)
We all walk through valleys—seasons of failure, regret, or pain that feel like dead ends. But in Hosea 2, God makes a stunning promise: “I will make the Valley of Trouble a door of hope." Discover how God’s grace meets us in our lowest places and opens the way to restoration and new beginnings. Your valley isn’t a dead end—it’s a doorway to hope.
📖 Scripture: Hosea 2:2–23

The Promiscuous Bride

🎙️Christian Lee (2025 August 24, Sunday, Storyline Church)
What do you do when love keeps running into rejection? In Hosea 1, God calls a prophet into the most painful sermon illustration imaginable: a marriage to an adulteress woman that mirrors God’s relationship with His people. Through Hosea’s family story, we see the scandal of unfaithfulness, the weight of sin’s consequences, and the relentless mercy of God. The truest thing about you is not your past, not your failure, and not the labels others put on you. The truest thing about you is the name God gives you in Christ.
📖 Scripture: Hosea 1:1–2:1

Redeeming Time

🎙️Erin Lee (2025 August 17, Sunday, Storyline Church)
Are you chained to your past or consumed by your future? Or do you indulge in distractions? Time matters. But our relationship to time matters more. How we see time impacts the way we live our lives.
📍 Scripture: Ephesians 5:15-17

One Message, One Mission, One Charge

🎙️Joel Lee (2025 August 3, Sunday, Storyline Church)
What if success in the church isn’t about attendance, but obedience? In this challenging and empowering message, we revisit the early church in Acts to recover what really matters: making disciples and living on mission. Paul’s final words to the Ephesian elders give us a powerful charge—one message, one mission, one charge—that still calls us today to believe, obey, and be sent.
📍 Scripture: Acts 20:20-28

Fractured Image, Fractured Society

🎙️Christian Lee (2025 July 6, Sunday, Storyline Church)
We live in a world divided—by class, race, politics, and power. But what if the deeper fracture lies in how we see ourselves and each other?
In this message, we explore the biblical truth that every human being is made in the image of God (Imago Dei)—and how this truth can restore dignity in a world marked by division. Drawing from Genesis 1 and touching on themes from the film Parasite, we uncover how sin has distorted the image of God in all of us and how one man was sent to restore it. 
📍 Scripture: Genesis 1:26–2:3

Saved for More

🎙️Woolim Ma (2025 July 20, Sunday, Storyline Church)
It's wonderful to consider what we are saved from but today Pastor Woolim of Favor Church unpacks what we are saved for using I Peter 2. What does it mean to be living stones that make up the house of God? What does it mean for us to be royal priests? And what does it mean to offer spiritual sacrifices?
📍Scripture: I Peter 2:4-5

Drop Your Nets

🎙️Christian Lee (2025 July 6, Sunday, Storyline Church)
Are you following Jesus—or just admiring Him from a distance?Jesus never drops the bar on what it means to follow him. He doesn't try to hide it but smacks people with it up front! In a world where we emphasize self-care and self-esteem, this message explores how Jesus' radical call to follow him involves self-denial.
📍Scripture: Luke 9:23-25

Stop Letting Self-Pity Ruin Your Story

🎙️Christian Lee (2025 June 22, Sunday, Storyline Church)
Self-pity can quietly drain your strength, cloud your perspective, and keep you stuck. It can even lead people to justify all kinds of poor behavior and sins. In the Garden of Gethsemane, Jesus shows us a better way.
This sermon dives deep into Mark 14:32–42, revealing how Jesus didn’t just model courage under pressure—He endured unspeakable agony in your place. When His suffering becomes personal to you, it will give you new power to face your own trials with perseverance and purpose.
💡 Topics Covered:
- What self-pity really is—and its negative effects
- The difference between self-pity and self-compassion
- How Jesus’ active and passive obedience secure your worth
- How beholding Jesus in Gethsemane drives out self-pity
