BEYOND THE FAKE CALM: DISCOVERING THE 5 P'S TO REAL PEACE
Tired of settling for temporary fixes that leave you feeling anxious and overwhelmed?
In *Part 3 of our Summer Together* series, Pastor Benjamin Lehew shares Five P's to Real Peace: how to protect your inner calm and become a true peacemaker in a chaotic world.
In This massage you’ll discover:
• Recognizing a Placebo Peace: Real peace does not mean masking internal anxiety and pretending everything is fine with a fake smile, as Jesus came to heal our pain rather than provide a temporary sugar pill to cover up our symptoms.
• Rejecting Escape and Distraction: Running away from difficult conversations or modern distractions might feel like temporary relief, but it acts as a mere escape rather than authentic, godly peace.
• Finding Peace in a Person: True peace is anchored entirely in a relationship with Jesus Christ, meaning it is defined by who you walk with rather than external circumstances like bank accounts or schedules.
• Embracing God's Right Order: Genuine peace (shalom) is achieved when we allow God to put our lives in His right order and choose to trust in the finished work of Jesus on the cross.

Drawing from his own recent journey through exhaustion and a six-week sabbatical to rest and restore, Pastor Mark dives deep into Luke 15 to unpack Jesus' consecutive parables of the lost sheep, the lost coin, and the prodigal son.
Discover the true cultural context of what it meant to end up in a pigsty, the difference between self-reliance and God-reliance, and what the word "prodigal" actually means. Whether you have wandered far away or have stayed in the house but forgotten the meaning of grace, this sermon is a beautiful reminder that our Father’s love never gives up on us.

Ever felt like God’s plan for your life makes absolutely zero sense? 🤯 If you are tired of waiting for answers and feeling trapped in anxiety or regret, this message is for you.
In this powerful message, titled "Higher Ways, Not Lower Thoughts," Pastor Ben unpacks a foundational framework for living in the tension between what you see or feel and what God is actually doing behind the scenes. Drawing from Isaiah 55, the creation of Adam in Genesis, and the resurrection of Lazarus in John 11, we explore how God engineered the emptiness before providing the answer, and why a delay from God is never a denial—it's a deeper setup.
Stop managing your life with "lower thoughts" and learn to shift your perspective from the loop of "if only" to the faith of "even now". It’s time to take the highway!
Key Takeaways from This Sermon:
• God exposes the need before He fills it: Understanding why there is purpose in the "pause" or the season of waiting.
• Delay isn't denial: How active, spiritual waiting tunes us into the voice of our Shepherd rather than our anxiety.
• The "Even Now" Mindset: Leaving behind the regret of the "if only" loop to step into the miraculous destiny God already has figured out.

Join Lead Pastor Benjamin Lehew and Grace Summit Church in Fort Wayne for a powerful Father's Day message centered around King David's deathbed charge to his son Solomon in 1 Kings 2: "Take courage, and be a man."
In this message, Pastor Ben challenges cultural clichés of masculinity and unpacks the true, biblical definition of manhood: a life of submission to God rather than a demand for perfection. Diving into the power of redemption, he explores three key identity shifts that happen when we encounter Christ:
1. Fathers, Not Guides: Moving past digital tools, instructors, and algorithms to become true spiritual parents who invest in the next generation.
2. Sons, Not Orphans: Overcoming the "orphan spirit" of striving, comparison, and fear to rest completely in the Father's affection and inheritance.
3. Producing After Our Own Kind: Understanding that the spiritual condition of our hearts is what we ultimately reproduce in our children and ministries.
Whether you are a biological father, a spiritual mentor, or simply working through your own relationship with God, this sermon will challenge you to step away from performing and step into your identity as a redeemed son or daughter of the King.

Welcome to Grace Summit Church! Are you too busy to enjoy the life God gave you? In this message, Lead Pastor Benjamin Lehew continues our series, "Real Christianity," exploring what it truly means to live out the gospel through authentic love and abundant joy.
Too often, the busyness of life and the weight of spiritual warfare leave us feeling depleted. We find ourselves constantly trying harder to fix our circumstances, when Jesus called us to receive deeper from His grace.
In this sermon, Pastor Ben breaks down the pillars of walking in real love:
1. You Can't Give What You Haven’t Received: Real Christianity starts when you pause, have patience, and receive God's love and peace for yourself.
2. Real Love Moves Toward People At Their Worst: Just like the Father chased down Adam in the garden, God’s unconditional love pursues us when we are at our lowest—and we are called to offer that same grace to others.
3. Love is Proven in Action, Not Intention: True faith isn't just about showing up with a "Sunday face"; it's about being grounded and rooted in Christ's love in our daily actions.
Stop worrying, stop trying to make things happen on your own, and let God take care of your problems so that your joy may be complete.

Are you running on "sugar and Jesus," or are you hungry for real Christianity?
In Part 2 of our series on "Real Christianity," Lead Pastor Benjamin Lehew challenges us to examine our spiritual memory. We often live as a "spoiled generation," enjoying the plenty but quickly forgetting the Provider who brought us through the wilderness. When life gets comfortable, our memory can get bad—turning yesterday's miracles into today's minimum requirements.
Digging deep into Deuteronomy 8:11-18, Pastor Ben exposes the reality of "spiritual amnesia". Just like the Hebrew children who forgot their miraculous deliverance out of Egypt to complain about the daily menu, we too can forget what held us while fixating on what hurt us.
Key Takeaways from this Message: Old Favorites are Today's Amnesia: We lose our wonder for the very things that used to make us cry. Your Faith Fades When Your Memory Fails: To survive the next storm, you must keep a record of what God has already brought you through. Receipts Don't Lie: The enemy loves to manipulate our thoughts and feelings, but a "spiritual receipt" is proof of what God has already done. No matter what season or diagnosis you are facing today, God didn't bring you this far just to leave you hanging. It’s time to look back, remember His faithfulness, and praise Him in the middle of the storm!
📖 Scripture References: Deuteronomy 8:11-18, Colossians 2

In this message, Pastor Benjamin Lehew kicks off our brand new series, Real Christianity, with a powerful, no-fluff look at what it truly means to follow Jesus. Diving into James 1:21-25, we are challenged to move past just hearing the Word and step into full obedience.
In a culture overfed with information but underweight in obedience, "No Fluff" faith requires us to trade sweet talk for a solid walk and embrace a reckless abandonment of self. It’s time to stop chasing a "new word" and start obeying the last thing God told us to do.
Key Scripture: James 1:21-25
Main Takeaways:
1. No Fluff Faith – From Hearing to Obeying
2. No Fluff Surrender – From Sweet Talk to Solid Walk
3. No Fluff Church – From Sugar High to Real Substance

In this powerful Memorial Day weekend message, Pastor Dan Prus dives into Joshua 24 to challenge us with one of the most famous declarations in Scripture: "As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord."
Drawing powerful parallels between Joshua’s final charge and Israel’s Exodus from Egypt, this sermon exposes the tactical "deals" and compromises the enemy tries to offer to keep us stuck. Discover why the invitation of God always brings opposition, how what we leave undone can become our undoing, and why the only true way forward is found completely under the blood of Jesus Christ.
Are you ready to stop going in circles and go all the way with Jesus? It’s time to make up your mind.
