    Contributed by David Dunn on Feb 7, 2026
     | 148 views

    God invites weary hearts to leave the world’s restless search for the new and return to Christ, the old path of rest.

    We live in an age enamored by the new. New technology. New methods. New philosophies. New spiritual voices. New versions of truth. Everything must be updated, rebranded, optimized, improved. If something is old, we tend to assume it must be outdated. If something is new, we assume it must be ...read more

    Exceeding Expectations Series

    based on 2 ratings
     | 6,457 views

    Jesus said that our righteousness must exceed that of the scribes and Pharisees. This means that He wants us to exceed the spiritual expectations prescribed by the Law; as we are to strive for excellence in our walk with God.

    I have entitled our message, “Exceeding Expectations,” and I want to begin by sharing a true story. A contractor in Mexico was hired to build a Catholic Church, but he used cheap materials in order to make more money. He reasoned that the quality of the materials did not matter, so long as the ...read more

    based on 3 ratings
     | 212 views

    True strength comes not from our own efforts, but from receiving and resting in the deep, sustaining joy that Jesus freely gives to us.

    Some weeks feel like a treadmill stuck on high speed. Emails multiply, news headlines weigh heavy, and the to-do list seems to lengthen while our energy shortens. Maybe your smile has been performing overtime while your heart has been running on empty. Friend, you’re not alone. And you’re not left ...read more

    Contributed by Sermon Research Assistant on Oct 7, 2025
    based on 3 ratings
     | 139 views

    God’s promises are received by faith, not by our efforts; grace, not performance, secures our acceptance and hope in Christ.

    Some of us walked in today with lists—mental ledgers of what we did right and where we fell short. We carry them like heavy backpacks. We whisper, “Maybe if I try harder, God will be pleased.” And our hearts grow tired, tight, and tentative. Then we come to Romans 4 and hear a fresh breeze blow ...read more

    God’s goodness and mercy actively pursue us every day, assuring us of His constant presence, care, and unfailing love in every circumstance.

    If you’ve ever felt shadowed by worry, stalked by regret, or tailed by the long to-do list that never seems to shrink, you’re in good company. David knew what it meant to have enemies at his heels and storms at his door. And yet, out of that life he sings a line so surprising it feels like a ...read more

    Examining the core value of community. What it means to truly experience community among our church family.

    One Sunday morning, early in the life of our church I asked the question, “What does the word value mean?” There were many responses that morning, but the one that I think most captured the true meaning of this word was, “Values are what make us who we are.” In other words, the things that ...read more
