     | 139 views

    The sermon calls us to seek God’s kingdom first, embrace repentance, and live out our faith together, trusting God to provide and guide us.

    If you came in today with a to-do list longer than a week and a heart full of what-ifs, you’re in the right place. The King is kind, and His words are clear. He speaks to grocery-getters and diaper-changers, to students and seniors, to the weary and the wide-awake. He leans close and whispers a ...read more

    Faithful, unseen service and prayer in everyday life have eternal significance, as God values and uses every act of obedience for His lasting purposes.

    Some of us come in today with calloused hands and tired hearts. You’ve folded laundry at midnight, sat beside hospital beds, raised kids and grandkids, held a flashlight while someone else turned the wrench. You’ve prayed through storms and sung through tears. And maybe, just maybe, you’ve ...read more

     | 99 views

    This sermon calls us to identify and renounce generational idols, embracing wholehearted devotion to God so that His freedom and love transform our families.

    Friends, every family has a box in the attic—old photos, faded letters, a quilt stitched by steady hands. Alongside those treasures come other hand-me-downs we don’t frame or display: patterns, pressures, and quiet preferences that keep tugging at our hearts. Maybe your household treasured hard ...read more

     | 143 views

    Through Christ’s finished work, believers receive victory over sin and struggle—not by their own strength, but by trusting in God’s love and grace.

    Some days the world feels like a bully with a bigger backpack. The bills stack up, the headlines grow heavier, and our hearts carry aches we never signed up for. You try to pray, and words get stuck behind a lump in your throat. You sit in church with a polite smile, but your soul wonders, Is ...read more

    True spiritual fruitfulness comes from abiding in Jesus, trusting God’s pruning, and allowing His life to flow through us for lasting transformation and joy.

    Friends, welcome. If you close your eyes, you can almost see it: a sunlit hillside, a trellis swaying with a thousand green hands, clusters of grapes hanging like promises. A vineyard hums with quiet life. No rushing. No straining. The story of the vine is simple and strong—life flows, branches ...read more

    Trusting in God, not ourselves or others, anchors our hearts and brings lasting strength, hope, and fruitfulness even in life’s hardest seasons.

    Some of us walked in today with a smile that covers a storm. Bills stack up like bricks. Family tensions tug at your heart like a riptide. News cycles churn, and your soul feels thin. You’re doing your best, yet your best feels brittle. Have you ever wondered, “Where do I place my weight when the ...read more

    Following Jesus means surrendering our comfort and control, embracing self-denial, and trusting that true life and reward are found in obedient discipleship with Him.

    Some of us walked in today with a smile on our face and a storm in our chest. The calendar is crowded, the heart is heavy, and the questions are louder than ever. You’ve been faithful, you’ve prayed, you’ve pressed on—and still, there are days when following Jesus feels like walking uphill with a ...read more

     | 125 views

    When life falls apart, faith refuses to panic, seeks God’s strength and guidance, and trusts Him to restore what’s been lost.

    Some days smell like smoke. The kind of day when you pull into the driveway and something feels off. The porch light is on, but peace is off. The phone rings, the doctor calls, the boss texts, the door closes—and your heart drops. The room looks the same, but everything has changed. Ashes in the ...read more

    Jesus lovingly calls us to reject complacency, pursue genuine relationship with Him, and value what truly matters over worldly success or self-sufficiency.

    There’s a kindness in the way Jesus speaks to us. He doesn’t holler from across the street; He knocks at the front door. He doesn’t shove His way into our living rooms; He stands and waits, like the Friend you can trust with the tender truth. You can almost hear the hinge creak as you reach for the ...read more

    This sermon calls us to honest, wholehearted living before God, trusting His grace to free us from pretense and form a sincere, holy community.

    Friends, some stories hush a room. They slip in like a soft wind and stir the curtains of the soul. Acts 5 is one of those stories. It starts with open hands and generous hearts in the early church, and then a sudden stillness falls. Have you ever smiled on the outside while your soul flinched ...read more

    I like to think that every Christian is born again with a spiritual toolbox. In your Christian toolbox are some basic tools. We all need to become experts in using these tools if we want to become mature Christians.

    CHRISTIAN TOOLBOX BASICS Let me see the hands of everyone who has a toolbox.

    God does not want us to be apathetic when it comes to adoring Him. He would rather have no worship at all than for us to come with paltry praise.

    Giving God Your Best After listening restlessly to a long and tedious sermon, a 6-year-old boy asked his father what the preacher did the rest of the week. “Oh, he’s a very busy man,” the father replied. “He takes care of church business, visits the sick, works on his sermon, counsels people…and ...read more

    Advent reminds us that people have always waited on God. And so will we. Why? Because waiting plays an important role in our spiritual growth.

    Today is the first Sunday in the season of the Christian year called Advent. The word "Advent" simply means arrival, or coming, and so during the next four weeks we will be celebrating the arrival of Christ. During Advent, we look back at the time when God became an infant child, born in a stable ...read more
