The Bend Church

The Bend Church A vibrant, life giving, Spirit-filled church with one mission: Lord Bend Me, Bend the Church and Bend the Nations!

09/06/2026

You’ve asked God for revival, breakthrough, healing, and transformation—but the move of God you’re praying for requires deeper surrender. Bring every ambition, habit, relationship, priority, and hidden place to the altar, allowing holiness to shape how you live when everyone is watching and when you think no one is.

Refuse a faith built around comfort and convenience. Let pride, bitterness, greed, lust, and selfish ambition die so your life can belong completely to Jesus. Before asking God to move through you, invite Him to work deeply within you: “Lord, start revival in me. Raise the standard in me.”

🔥 TODAY AT THE BEND: RAISE THE STANDARD! 🔥

Here's your Sunday challenge: Get to church today, and don't come alone! Bring your expectation, bring somebody who needs a fresh encounter with God and come ready to praise!

We are praying for revival. Believing for awakening. Asking God for MORE.

But here's the question: What if MORE OF GOD requires MORE SURRENDER from us?

Today I'm preaching: RAISE THE STANDARD. Not somebody else's standard. OURS.

Before we ask God to do something greater through us, maybe we need to let Him do something deeper in us.

⏰ 10:00 AM
📍 The Bend Church

Grab your coffee, grab somebody who needs some fire back in their soul, and GET TO THE BEND! 🔥🙌

God is calling us higher. Let's answer the call.

PS - if you are on the worship team (singers or musicians) please don't forget we will be meeting immediately after church for 10 minutes to give you important information.

See you at 10!

The final hour will not be navigated by curiosity, intellect, or secondhand faith. Recognize the spiritual conflict running from Genesis to Revelation, test every supernatural claim against Scripture, and develop the discernment needed to distinguish the voice of God from the counterfeits competing for your trust.

Bring the entire series into focus—from the ancient rebellion and the days of Noah to the strong delusion and deceptive wonders of the last days. What lies ahead demands more than information: it demands biblical conviction, spiritual awareness, and an active relationship with God. Know His Word. Recognize His voice. Follow His direction. The goal is not fear, but readiness—and the confidence that Jesus has already secured the final victory.

🔥 THE FINAL NIGHT: HOW DO WE LIVE IN WHAT'S COMING? 🔥

Bend Church Family, for months on Wednesday nights we have gone deep into some of the most startling and sobering passages in Scripture.

We have studied what has happened upon the earth before, what is happening right now, and what Jesus warned would come again.

Jesus said the last days would resemble the days of Noah and the days of Lot. Look around. Nations are aligning. Culture is shifting at breathtaking speed. Technology is advancing faster than our ability to comprehend its implications. Biblical boundaries are being erased, and the architecture of an Antichrist system is increasingly possible before our eyes. And I am telling you, there is an avalanche of change still coming.

This Wednesday night, we are going to FINISH THIS STUDY WITH A BANG! 💥

Believe it or not, there are still MONTHS worth of shocking biblical and historical information I could give you. But I believe it is time to move from REVELATION to PREPARATION. There is a one MILLION-DOLLAR QUESTION left:

HOW DO WE PREPARE FOR WHAT IS HERE AND WHAT IS COMING? How do we recognize deception without becoming consumed by fear? And most importantly...

HOW DO WE LIVE JESUS IN FRONT OF AN INCREASINGLY GODLESS SOCIETY?

The answer is not panicking and the answer is not becoming obsessed with darkness.

🔥 WEDNESDAY | 6:30 PM

We are not ending this series afraid of what is coming. We are ending it READY!

Your gift isn’t about revealing how gifted you are — it’s about revealing the Father’s heart. 🤍

God didn’t give us gifts to glorify ourselves, make us feel important, or build our platform. He gave us gifts to build up His Church, encourage others, and point people back to Him.

If your gift makes you feel big, you’re missing the point.

Our gifts aren’t meant to reveal us. They’re meant to reveal Him.

A powerful reminder from Pastor Shane’s message this past Sunday.

08/30/2026

The resurrection is not a comforting idea Christianity invented to cope with death. Jesus died, was buried, rose again, and was seen—and everything we believe stands or falls on that reality. If Christ is not risen, faith is empty and death wins. But Christ is risen, and His resurrection guarantees that death will not have the final word over those who belong to Him.

Grief is real. Loss is real. The grave still feels painfully final—but death is already a defeated enemy. Christ is the firstfruits of a resurrection still to come, and what is buried in weakness will be raised in power. Live with the confidence of an empty tomb: the sting is gone, the victory is won, and death lost.
