Make it Count | Pastor Alex Reyes — 03.05.25

To "Make it Count" means living with purpose and intentionality, aligning with God's plan for us. Ephesians 5:15 encourages us to live wisely, making the most of every opportunity. It reminds us to approach each moment thoughtfully and responsibly, being worthy of the life we've been given. Check out this message from Pastor Alex from our March First Wednesday experience! 

The Blessing of Resistance | Pastor Jason Hitte — 03.02.2025

This weekend at Lakeside was Vision Sunday! As we step into The Year of Strengthening, Pastor Jason delivered a powerful message titled “The Blessing of Resistance.” While everyone desires strength, few embrace the resistance required to achieve it. 
Resistance is not meant to break you but to build you. It is often a sign that you are on the right path, preparing you for God’s purpose. As Romans 8:28 reminds us, God works all things for good for those who love Him. Instead of fearing challenges, we are called to rejoice in resistance, knowing that perseverance produces maturity and strength (James 1:2-4).
God loves you too much to leave you weak — This year, we embrace resistance as a blessing, trusting that it is growing us, not grounding us.

Holy Communion | Pastor Jason Hitte — 02.05.2025

In this message, we reflect on the significance of communion, following the model Jesus gave. Communion is more than a ritual — it’s a moment of worship, remembrance, and gratitude for Christ’s sacrifice. We’ll explore two common extremes in the church regarding communion:
1. Taking it without heart connection – When it becomes a religious formality rather than sincere worship, something Jesus strongly rebuked (Matthew 15:8-9).
2. Neglecting it altogether – Forgetting or avoiding communion, despite its biblical importance.
While Scripture doesn’t specify how often to take communion, it is a practice meant to be observed with reverence and intentionality.
At Lakeside, we set aside time in our First Wednesday service to receive communion together, worship, and give thanks to God.
