What is Revival? | Isaiah 40:1-11 | Chapel Hill Church Gig Harbor

In February 2023, a chapel service at Asbury University turned into two weeks of nonstop worship and prayer, drawing an estimated 50,000 people from around the world. People called it revival. But what actually is it — and would we recognize it if God sent it here? Pastor Ellis kicks off our new fall series, […]

Legacy: Your Echo Through Eternity | Hebrews 11 | Chapel Hill Church Gig Harbor

What will your legacy be? In this message, Pastor Emeritus Mark Toone explores Hebrews 11 — the Bible’s own “Hall of Fame” — to uncover what a legacy that outlasts us actually looks like. Using stories from the Rock & Roll and NFL Halls of Fame as a starting point, Mark unpacks three marks of […]

How Can I Bear Spiritual Fruit? | Chapel Hill Church Gig Harbor

We close out Come Holy Spirit in Galatians 5:22-23, asking what it actually takes to grow real, lasting fruit — love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. Pastor Ellis shows that the conditions for fruit aren’t mysterious or dramatic: prayer, Scripture, and community, lived out over time, abiding in the vine. The […]

What are Spiritual Gifts? | Chapel Hill Church Gig Harbor

Are spiritual gifts a reward for the super-spiritual? Only for a select few? Just for you? Pastor Ellis tackles three common misconceptions about spiritual gifts in 1 Corinthians 12:4-7, week four of our Come Holy Spirit series. You’ll walk away seeing why the gifts aren’t earned, aren’t reserved for a spiritual elite, and aren’t ultimately […]

How Can I Be Filled with the Spirit? | Chapel Hill Church Gig Harbor

A balloon can be full — and still be filled more. That’s the picture Pastor Ellis uses in week three of Come Holy Spirit to unpack Ephesians 5:18-21 and Paul’s command to “be filled with the Spirit.” Every believer has the Spirit. But being filled is different — it’s an ongoing rhythm, not a one-time […]

How Does the Holy Spirit Work? | Chapel Hill Church Gig Harbor

The Holy Spirit’s greatest miracle isn’t tongues, healing, or prophecy — it’s bringing spiritually dead people to life. Pastor Ellis continues our Come Holy Spirit series with the story of Nicodemus in John 3, showing what it means to be “born again” and why that changes everything about how we understand our own transformation. If […]

Who is the Holy Spirit? | Come Holy Spirit | Chapel Hill Church Gig Harbor

Is the Holy Spirit a mysterious force to tap into, or a person to actually know? Pastor Ellis opens our new series, Come Holy Spirit, by looking at John 14 and Acts 5 to answer the most foundational question of all: who is he? We discover five things about the Holy Spirit — he is […]

How to be Content | Chapel Hill Church Gig Harbor

Why does God end the Ten Commandments with coveting? It almost feels like an afterthought. But the more you look at it, the more you realize it might be the most important one of all. Because every other commandment addresses what we do. This one addresses what we want. In this closing message of the […]

How to Hold to the Truth | Chapel Hill Church Gig Harbor

91% of Americans admit to lying regularly. 20% say they do it every day. And most of us still think of ourselves as honest people. So what’s actually going on? In this message, guest speaker Mike Moses walks through the ninth commandment and makes the case that lying isn’t just a behavior problem — it’s […]

How to Prosper with a Clean Conscience | Chapel Hill Church Gig Harbor

Everyone agrees stealing is wrong. But almost everyone also has an “unless.” Unless you count the streaming password you share with five people. Unless you count the self-checkout bags you don’t scan. Unless you count the borrowed thing you never returned. If you have to ask “does that count?” — you probably already know the […]
