Church the Way It Was Meant to Be
Small. Real. Rooted in discipleship. For over 27 years, Sanctuary Church has been a place where people don't just attend — they grow, they heal, and they're raised up to make an impact.
Not Your Typical Church
Sanctuary Church of Jacksonville was founded on the principles of the early church — gathering together, sharing life, and walking through deep discipleship. We're not trying to fill an arena. We're here to raise leaders.
Led by Pastors Connie and Dwight Cenac, our church was born out of decades of real-world ministry — from the healthcare industry to missions spanning six continents. Before “marketplace ministry” was a term, the Cenacs were living it — mentoring, serving, and sharing the gospel wherever God placed them.
This is a place where faith is tested, refined, and made real. Where trials become triumphs. Where you're not just welcomed — you're invested in.
“Seek first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.”— Matthew 6:33

God's Timetable: The Millennial Kingdom | Pastor Connie Cenac
In this message, Pastor Connie Cenac continues her series God's Timetable by opening the Scriptures that reveal the thousand-year reign of Christ — the Millennial Kingdom that begins when the Great Tribulation ends. She begins with the three remaining fall feasts: the Feast of Trumpets, which foretells the rapture of the remnant church and the wedding feast of the Lamb; the Day of Atonement, which foretells the second coming of Christ at the end of the tribulation, when God redeems Israel; and the Feast of Tabernacles, which foretells the 1,000-year reign, when Jesus will tabernacle with His people. Walking through Revelation 20 and the prophets, she shows how Satan will be bound for a thousand years so that he can no longer deceive the nations, and how Christ will reign from the throne of David with His saints — Old Testament believers, the raptured church, and those martyred in the tribulation — in what Scripture calls the first resurrection. She then describes what that kingdom will look like: a righteous government over the whole earth, the restoration of Israel to the land God promised Abraham, the nations coming up to Jerusalem to worship the King, the curse of sin lifted from creation, and a world marked by peace, plenty, healing, and joy. Most of all, this is a message of hope. No eye has seen, no ear has heard, and no mind has imagined what God has prepared for those who love Him. Thank you for worshipping with us at Sanctuary Church of Jacksonville!

God's Timetable: The Seventy Weeks of Daniel | Pastor Connie Cenac
In this message, Pastor Connie Cenac takes us deep into one of the most significant, and most challenging, messianic prophecies in the Old Testament: the Seventy Weeks of Daniel. Starting with God's plan to redeem His creation through Israel, she traces the story from Israel's exile into Babylon and Jeremiah's letter to the captives, to Daniel's prayer and the angel Gabriel's answer revealing a prophetic "clock" of 490 years. Pastor Connie walks through the history step by step: Artaxerxes' decree to rebuild Jerusalem recorded in Nehemiah 2, the 483 years leading to Jesus' triumphal entry into Jerusalem, the Messiah being "cut off," and the destruction of Jerusalem in AD 70. She then explains the "missing" 70th week, the seven-year tribulation, why she believes the church will be taken out before God's wrath is poured out, and what is happening in Jerusalem today as preparations for temple worship move forward. Most of all, this is a message of hope: God's timing is perfect. The tribulation will end, sorrow and suffering will end, and Jesus will return just as He left, to bring in His everlasting kingdom of righteousness.

When the Trumpet Sounds | Pastor Connie | Sanctuary Church
The Feast of Trumpets begins this year at sundown on September 11th, and Pastor Connie believes it is one of the most important days on God's prophetic calendar. In this message she walks through why the rapture of the church may well take place during the Feast of Trumpets, what the Jewish feasts reveal about God's timetable, and what the different names of Rosh Hashanah (the day of the awakening blast, the day of judgment, the day of remembrance, the wedding day of the Messiah, the day no one knows) tell us about the moment Jesus comes for His bride. Scriptures in this message: Psalm 2:8-9, Revelation 19:15, Revelation 12:5, Revelation 2:26-27, Matthew 24:32-42, Leviticus 23:23-25, 1 Corinthians 15:51-52, 1 Thessalonians 4:16-17, Revelation 22:12-13, Luke 17:34-36, John 14:1-3, Matthew 26:27-29, Matthew 25:1-13, Revelation 19:6-9, Mark 13:32-37, Revelation 22:12-17 Chapters 0:00 Remembering 9/11, 25 years later 4:56 Jesus will rule the nations with a rod of iron 9:03 The Feast of Trumpets begins September 11 11:18 Learn the lesson of the fig tree (Matthew 24) 14:38 Why the rapture may fall on the Feast of Trumpets 17:21 Rosh Hashanah and the 100th trumpet blast 19:42 Yom Teruah, the day of the awakening blast 22:44 The day of judgment 24:03 The day of remembrance 25:11 The wedding day of the Messiah 29:18 The parable of the ten virgins 31:21 The marriage supper of the Lamb 34:00 The day no one knows 36:31 "The Spirit and the bride say, Come!"
