Pastor Jackson’s latest Deep Dive is one worth sitting with. 🙏

In a week when culture is loud and the lines feel sharp, he cuts through the noise with something we all need to hear — not a reaction, but a reminder.

Our identity isn’t found in our desires, our politics, or our failures. It’s found in Christ.

This post is honest, compassionate, and grounded in the gospel. He speaks truth without losing grace — and grace without losing truth. That balance is rare, and it’s worth reading slowly.

*”The world says, ‘Be true to yourself.’ Jesus says, ‘Come to Me.’ One message leads to self. The other leads to life.”*

Head to the link in bio to read **”A Better Identity”** — and share it with someone who needs the reminder today.

🔗 New Sermon Series Starts This Sunday: Joy That Can’t Be Chained

What happens when life doesn’t go the way you planned? Can you still have joy?

Pastor Jackson shares a preview of our upcoming sermon series, “Joy That Can’t Be Chained,” as we walk through the book of Philippians and discover how true joy isn’t found in perfect circumstances—it’s found in Christ.

This Sunday will be especially meaningful as we also celebrate 3 baptisms! 🙌 There is nothing more exciting than seeing lives transformed and people publicly declaring their faith in Jesus.

Come worship with us, celebrate alongside these three individuals, and discover the kind of joy that no hardship, trial, or circumstance can take away.

📍 Refuge Community Church
🕥 Sundays at 10:30 AM

Bring your family, invite a friend, and come expectant. We can’t wait to worship with you! 💙

Worship Is More Than Music

Every Sunday, our worship team helps lead us into a time of praise, reflection, and connection with God.

While the songs may change, the purpose remains the same—to lift up the name of Jesus and prepare our hearts to hear His Word.

We're grateful for those who faithfully use their gifts each week, not to perform, but to serve and lead others in worship.

Whether you're singing loudly, humming quietly, or simply listening to the words, worship reminds us that we were never meant to walk this journey alone.

Join us this Sunday at 10:30 AM as we gather to worship together.
