Hope Church LV Sermons

Acts | When God Moves

In this message, Pastor Trenton preached from Acts 2:14–36.

In Acts 2, we see God move as the Holy Spirit is poured out and the early Church begins. Yet even in this powerful moment, many people misunderstood what was happening and failed to recognize it as the work of God.

We often want God to move in our lives, but we’re not always sure what that should look like. Acts 2 doesn’t just show us that the Spirit moved; it shows us how to recognize when God is truly at work.

If you’re longing to see God move in your life and want to know how to recognize it, this message is for you.

Acts | The Coming of the Holy Spirit

In this sermon, we entered Acts chapter 2 and Pastor Scott preached from Acts 2:1–13.

This passage is about the Day of Pentecost, when the Holy Spirit was poured out on the disciples, empowering them to boldly proclaim the gospel and marking the birth of the Church, and we dive deep into the significance of Pentecost and what our response should be to it.

Acts | Discerning God's Will

In this sermon, Pastor Scott preached from Acts 1:12–26.

One of the biggest questions every Jesus follower asks in their walk with God is, “What is God’s will for my life?” In this message, we learn how to discern God’s will and the steps we can take as we walk it out.

If you’re asking what God’s will is for your life, this message is for you. Check it out!

Acts | Last Words and First Priority

In this sermon, we focus on Jesus’ ascension in Acts 1:6–11 and explore three realities from His final moments on earth: Jesus doesn’t always give us what we want, He promises the Holy Spirit and the mission, and He ascends in glory with the promise to return in power.

As we take part in God’s mission—loving our city, planting churches in the West, and bringing the gospel to the nations—we are reminded that this work is done not in our own strength, but through the power of the Holy Spirit who lives in us.

Acts | The Beginning of What Would Change the World

As we kick off our new study, Acts, Pastor Scott Worthington preached from Acts 1:1-5.

After His resurrection, Jesus spent forty days with His disciples, teaching them about one central theme: the Kingdom of God. God is reigning now, yet the world still longs for the fullness of His rule—what Scripture calls the “already, not yet.”

In this message, we explore what the Kingdom of God is, why it matters today, and how Jesus invites us to pray, live, and participate in God’s reign until He returns.

The Final Service of 2025

This weekend, Pastor Mel Godinez, our Students and Young Adults Pastor, preached for the first time during our gatherings, sharing from John 1:1–16.

As we step into 2026, we are challenged to consider who God really is and what we believe He is like. Our assumptions about God shape how much we trust Him, how we relate to Him, and ultimately how we live. What we believe about God shapes how we live every single day.

The Lord's Supper: Never Get Over the Gospel

In this Lord’s Supper message, Pastor Trenton Dorner preaches from 1 Corinthians 15:1–5.

As followers of Jesus, we are never meant to move past the gospel—but to grow deeper in it. We are called to remember, daily and moment by moment, the death and resurrection of Jesus. The same gospel that saves us is the same gospel that sustains us. That is what we focus on in this message. Check it out to learn more!

Money Talks | Week 2: What God Says About Money

Money Talks: What It Says and Why It Matters is a two-week study that explores what God’s Word teaches us about money.

In Week 2, Pastor Scott Worthington teaches from 2 Corinthians 9:6-7. Last week, we talked about a better way to see money—as a tool God wants to use for us and through us to bless others through generosity and giving. Today, Pastor Scott gives us a practical guide, an “instruction manual” on generosity. This is all about discipleship in one of the most important and often overlooked areas of following Jesus. You’ll learn not just the why, but the how, and take your next step in your journey of generosity.
