Deadly Snares #3 // Pastor Mike "Fitz" Fitzpatrick

Greed

Greed convinces us that more will finally be enough. It narrows our vision, shifting trust from God to accumulation. This message challenges us to notice where desire turns into demand, and how freedom begins when we loosen our grip. ginghamsburg.org

 

Deadly Snares #2 // Pastor Dennis Miller

Gluttony

Gluttony isn’t just about excess; it’s about appetite without restraint. Esau trades something eternal for something immediate, revealing how quickly hunger can cloud wisdom. This week asks what we keep reaching for to fill us—and why it never quite satisfies. ginghamsburg.org

Pride

Pride doesn’t always look loud or arrogant—it often sounds like self-reliance. It whispers that we don’t really need God, or that we know better. Ash Wednesday invites us to begin Lent by naming the oldest snare of all and remembering who we are—and who we are not. ginghamsburg.org

Where is God? #7 // Pastor Dennis Miller

When Leading Through the Wilderness?

Exodus 18:21–23; 33:11 – Leadership in the wilderness is exhausting. Moses carries the weight of a restless people and discovers that even faithful leaders feel overwhelmed, lonely, and stretched thin. This final week explores how God sustains those called to lead—not by removing the burden, but by sharing it, strengthening it, and reminding us that the work has always been his. In the end, the wilderness reveals not just the limits of Moses, but the greater Deliverer who leads us home. ginghamsburg.org

 

Where is God? #6 // Pastor Dennis Miller

When I am Struggling with Change?

Freedom doesn’t always feel better than familiarity. In the wilderness, Israel wrestles with change, loss of control, and unmet expectations. God meets them daily, teaching that transformation is rarely instant—but always intentional.

Where is God? #5 // Pastor Dennis Miller

When I Feel Trapped?

Exodus chapters 7-14 – Sometimes the way forward looks impossible and the way back is closed. The Red Sea moment forces Israel to confront fear, trust, and surrender all at once. This week asks what it means to trust God when escape seems out of reach. ginghamsburg.org

Where is God? #4 // Pastor Mike "Fitz" Fitzpatrick

When Obedience Makes Life Harder?

Exodus chapters 5-6 – What happens when doing the right thing leads to more resistance, not less? Moses obeys God—and everything gets worse. This message wrestles with the uncomfortable truth that faithfulness doesn’t always bring immediate relief. ginghamsburg.org

Where is God? #3 // Pastor Dennis Miller

When I Need Direction?

Exodus chapters 3-4 – Few moments feel heavier than standing at a crossroads with no clear path forward. Moses encounters God while unsure, unqualified, and hesitant. This week explores how God often speaks direction not when we feel ready—but when we’re willing to listen. ginghamsburg.org

When I'm Wounded? 

Exodus chapter 2 – Pain has a way of reshaping our questions about God. When life leaves marks we didn’t ask for, trust doesn’t come easily. Moses’ story shows how God meets us not after the wound, but right in the middle of it. ginghamsburg.org

Where is God? #1 // Pastor Dennis Miller

While I Wait?

Exodus Chapter 1 – Waiting can feel like silence, and silence can feel like absence. When prayers stall and progress feels slow, it’s easy to wonder if God has forgotten us. Exodus opens in a season of long waiting, reminding us that God is often doing his deepest work before we see any movement.
