    04.19.26: Pilgrims of Hope: Hearts Still Burning on the Road

    You don't arrive. You keep walking. On the third Sunday of Easter, Rev. Dr. Jarrod Longbons follows two disciples on the road to Emmaus (Luke 24:13–35), where Jesus appears as a stranger, opens the scriptures, and is recognized only in the breaking of bread — then vanishes, sending them back the way they came with hearts still burning. Drawing on his own near-death experience and the fade-out that follows any spiritual high, Longbons makes the case that black belts are beginners and the Christian life is less arrival than savoring. Keep walking, pilgrims. Christ is still on the road.#PilgrimsOfHope #Emmaus #Luke24 #RoadToEmmaus #BreakingOfBread #HeartsBurning #EasterSeason #ThirdSundayOfEaster #SacredPilgrimage #Discipleship #PCCAtlanta #PeachtreeChristianChurch #SermonSeries #RevDrJarrodLongbons

    04.12.26: Pilgrims of Hope: New Creation in a Locked Room

    What if the locked room where the disciples hid was the garden where God was breathing life back into the world? On the second Sunday of Easter, Rev. Brooks Gignilliat reads John 20:19–31 against the opening pages of Genesis — and finds Jesus, on the first day of the week, breathing on his disciples the way God once breathed on Adam. Thomas wants to grasp; he wants the facts in his own hands. But faith isn't grasping — it's letting go long enough to say, "My Lord and my God." The point was never the answers. The point is the relationship.#PilgrimsOfHope #DoubtingThomas #John20 #NewCreation #BreathOfLife #SecondSundayOfEaster #EasterSeason #FromFearToFaith #MyLordAndMyGod #SacredPilgrimage #PCCAtlanta #PeachtreeChristianChurch #SermonSeries #RevBrooksGignilliat

    04.05.26: Easter Sunday: The Glory of God is You, Fully Alive

    The Roman soldiers had everything the world calls life — power, position, pay — and at the sight of resurrection, they fell over like dead men. Mary Magdalene and the other Mary had nothing the world counts — and they ran from the empty tomb fully alive, fear and joy pulsing through them. On Easter Sunday, Rev. Dr. Jarrod Longbons preaches Matthew 28:1–10 alongside St. Irenaeus's old line: the glory of God is a human being fully alive. Christ is risen. The question is whether you are.#eastersunday #Easter2026 #Matthew28 #ChristIsRisen #ResurrectionDay #FullyAlive #GloryOfGod #StIrenaeus #EmptyTomb #TheTwoMarys #PCCAtlanta #PeachtreeChristianChurch #SermonSeries #RevDrJarrodLongbons

    03.29.26: Pilgrims of Hope: Good Trouble at the Gate

    Jesus comes to Jerusalem to cause good trouble — the holy kind. On Palm Sunday, Rev. Dr. Jarrod Longbons reads Matthew 21:1–11 against a Passover-swelled city the size of an Olympic host town, where every pilgrim hoped for a king to throw off Rome — and got, instead, a king on a donkey who refuses to give what we want so he can give what we need. The waving palms become a question: are we ready to follow a Lord whose triumph looks like trouble, and whose throne looks like a cross?Hashtags: #PilgrimsOfHope #PalmSunday #Matthew21 #TriumphalEntry #HolyWeek #GoodTrouble #LentenJourney #SacredPilgrimage #Hosanna #PCCAtlanta #PeachtreeChristianChurch #SermonSeries #RevDrJarrodLongbons

    03.22.26: Pilgrims of Hope: When the Path Leads to the Tomb

    Some pilgrimages take you exactly where you don't want to go. On the fifth Sunday of Lent, Rev. Dr. Jarrod Longbons walks with Mary, Martha, and a grieving community to the tomb of Lazarus (John 11:1–45), reflecting on his own season of serious illness — when "fight" and "journey" couldn't carry the weight, but pilgrimage could. Jesus delays. Jesus weeps. Jesus calls the dead out by name. When the path leads through scary places, walk it anyway — because Christ is already ahead, and life waits on the far side of the stone.#pilgrimsofhope #Lazarus #Lent2026 #John11 #IAmTheResurrection #LentenJourney #SacredPilgrimage #FifthSundayOfLent #FaithThroughGrief #PCCAtlanta #PeachtreeChristianChurch #SermonSeries #RevDrJarrodLongbons

    03.15.26: Pilgrims of Hope: Eyes Opened on the Pilgrim Path

    What do you do when your eyes are opened and the world looks nothing like you expected? On the fourth Sunday of Lent, Rev. Dr. Jarrod Longbons walks through John 9's story of the man born blind — a healing that costs him his community, his certainty, and everything familiar. Yet it places him, sight restored, on the ancient pilgrim pathway that leads to the Pool of Siloam and beyond. The sermon lands a quiet challenge: when Jesus opens your eyes, don't crawl back to the comfort of the gutter. Get up, get washed, and keep walking.

    03.08.26: Pilgrims of Hope: The Unexpected Watering Hole

    God shows up where you least expect it. On the third Sunday of Lent, Rev. Dr. Jarrod Longbons follows Jesus into Samaria for his encounter with the woman at the well (John 4), exploring how the most transformative moments on any pilgrimage happen off the planned itinerary — in a pub in Glasgow, on a storm-tossed ship off Donegal, or at a well at noon with a stranger who knows everything you've ever done. No matter what shame you carry or how far you feel from God, living water is offered at the most unexpected stops along the way.#PilgrimsOfHope #WomanAtTheWell #LivingWater #Lent2026 #John4 #UnexpectedGrace #LentenJourney #SacredPilgrimage #Transformation #AmazingGrace #PCCAtlanta #PeachtreeChristianChurch #SermonSeries #RevDrJarrodLongbons

    03.01.26: Pilgrims of Hope: Born From Above

    You don't need to become a better person. You need to become a new one. On the second Sunday of Lent, Rev. Dr. Jarrod Longbons continues the Pilgrims of Hope series with the story of Nicodemus — the religious insider who comes to Jesus under cover of night, and slowly, across three chapters of John's Gospel, is transformed in the open light of day. Drawing on John 3:1–17 and his own story of healing by firelight, Longbons makes the case that the Lenten pilgrimage isn't about self-improvement — it's about being born from above.#PilgrimsOfHope #BornFromAbove #Lent2026 #John3 #Nicodemus #BornAgain #LentenJourney #SacredPilgrimage #Transformation #PCCAtlanta #PeachtreeChristianChurch #SermonSeries #RevDrJarrodLongbons

    02.22.26: The Pilgrim's Test: Temptation, Discipline, and the Lenten Journey

    Lent is not a detour — it's a pilgrimage. On the first Sunday of Lent 2026, Rev. Dr. Jarrod Longbons continues a four-week series by walking through Jesus' temptation in the wilderness (Matthew 4:1–11), exploring three tests: appetite, spectacle, and efficiency. Each one mirrors the shortcuts we're tempted to take in our own spiritual lives. The invitation is clear — don't be a tourist to your own transformation. Walk the pilgrim path with Jesus this season, and let the discipline lead to freedom.

    02.15.26: From Table to Service: The Bread That Sends Us

    What happens when we truly receive communion? In this fourth and final sermon in Peachtree Christian Church's strategic plan series, Rev. Katie Bond draws from John 6 to explore how the Lord's Supper isn't a destination — it's a commissioning. When Christ abides in us, he moves us outward: toward the hungry, the lonely, and the overlooked. The table isn't where we stay. It's where we're sent.

    02.08.26: Engage the World with Curiosity: Faith That Shows Up

    How should Christians engage a divided and distracted world?
    Drawing from Paul’s sermon at the Areopagus, Jesus’ call to be light in the world, and the promise of good work in Ephesians, this sermon invites the church to engage the world not with fear or judgment, but with curiosity, humility, and hope. As Peachtree Christian Church looks toward its next century, we are reminded that flourishing faith shows up—listening deeply, shining gently, and doing good day after day for the sake of Christ and the city we love.
