Growing Church

Sep 20, 2026  •  Barry Park

Real, everyday faith stories like Maddy's & Matthew's remind us that following Jesus isn't about having it all figured out - it's about showing up as you are and taking that next step. In this message, Pastor Barry walks through Matthew's encounter with Jesus in Matthew 9, exploring what it means to move from being a spectator to truly belonging, from the street, to the foyer, all the way to the kitchen table. We dig into baptism, humility, and why there's no such thing as a "perfect time" to say yes (as heard in Maddy's story). Whether you grew up in church, walked away from it, or have never set foot in one, this conversation about faith, belonging, and what it means to go all in is for you.
