He was dead for four days. Buried. And then Jesus called him out of the tomb. That's not just a Bible story — it's why thousands of people showed up for Palm Sunday. In this Palm Sunday message, Pastor Joe Wickman looks at the moment Lazarus walked out of his grave and why that one miracle changed everything — including what happened when Jesus rode into Jerusalem days later. You'll also hear real testimonies from people at New Life Church whose lives have been transformed by Jesus in 2026. Because Lazarus was just the beginning. Jesus is still raising people from death to life today.

What if worship is bigger than music?  In this message, we close our Spiritual Disciplines series by looking at the heart of worship. Every human being worships something. We were made in the image of God, created with a deep longing that only He can fill. This sermon explores: why every person is wired for worship the “God-shaped void” in the human heart how Jesus made a way for us to come near to God what it means that we are now the temple of the living God how worship becomes a daily practice of making space for God If you’ve ever felt empty, restless, or like something is missing, this message points to the only One who can truly satisfy the soul.

What makes a life truly meaningful? In Acts 9, we meet a woman named Tabitha whose life was defined by simple acts of service. She didn’t preach sermons or lead movements—she simply loved people and served them. Yet when she died, the entire community mourned because of the impact her life had made. Her story forces us to ask a powerful question: When our life is over, what will people remember? In this message from our Spiritual Disciplines series, we discover that the path to a meaningful life is not found in recognition, success, or accumulating more for ourselves. Instead, Jesus shows us that true greatness is found in serving others. Jesus said: “Whoever wants to be first must take last place and be the servant of everyone else.” (Mark 9:35) If you want to live a life that matters, the answer is simple—but not always easy: Serve like Jesus.
