    God uses our ordinary lives and small acts of integrity to shine Christ’s light, making a meaningful difference wherever we are placed.

    Some of the most meaningful moments of grace happen in the middle of ordinary days. Between alarm clocks and car keys. Between lunches packed and emails sent. Somewhere between the grocery aisle and the front porch, God whispers a reminder: You carry light. You may not feel brilliant. You may feel ...read more

    Maybe You Need To Grow Up

    Contributed by Daren Mitchell on Apr 22, 2014
     | 6,241 views

    The end of the world is coming. Even if the end doesn't come in our lifetime, everyone dies at some point. This fact serves as a constant and urgent reminder that our goal as followers of Jesus is to go to heaven and we want to take as many others with us as we can.

    As a church we talk a lot about spiritual growth. This is our mission statement "we exist to increase and mature God's people." This process of increasing and maturing is called Discipleship. It's a big Bible Word but it has a simple meaning. A disciple of Jesus is a follower or even more ...read more
