West Pines Community Church

In the opening message of The Epic of the City, Pastor Robey Barnes takes us back to Genesis to look at the Tower of Babel and the human tendency to build our lives around making a name for ourselves. He contrasts that story with Abraham’s encounter with Melchizedek, showing how true worship isn’t about self-promotion, but about lifting up God and serving others. The message reminds us that everyone is always worshiping something—the real question is who gets the glory. The service closes with communion, inviting us to re-center our faith on Jesus and respond to His invitation to live for a greater name than our own.
