    God's faithfulness and action in seasons of change

    When I mapped out our sermon series post-Easter, I had an idea that it might lead us into a season of transition coinciding with my forthcoming handing over the leadership of our church to the next person God is preparing already to come and lead us into a new thing.

  • Faith Causes Us To Live With A Purpose Series

    Contributed by Duane Wente on May 3, 2025
     | 593 views

    Faith does not call us to sit and wait for something big to happen — it calls us to live every day with purpose. God has gifted each of us uniquely, and true faith leads us to use those gifts in service to His mission. Living beyond belief means living out our calling.

     | 716 views

    Trusting God's promises not only gives you a blessing at the end, but it gives you a blessing while you are waiting.

     | 938 views

    “From Panic to Praise” is a call to trust Jesus in life’s fiercest storms, reminding us that while faith may be shaken when we focus on the storm, it is strengthened by knowing who is with us and secured by trusting in the sovereign power of our Savior.

    From Panic to Praise Mark 4:35-41; Psalms 95:1-7 The author of Hebrews tells us that “faith is the confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see” (Hebrews 11:1). Faith allows us to stand firmly on the unseen foundation of God’s truth—not because we were ...read more

    Contributed by David Dunn on Jan 26, 2026
     | 61 views

    Jesus speaks to faithful people whose love has thinned, not to shame them, but to invite a return to relationship.

    – First Part: Listening Posture Most of us don’t think of ourselves as drifting. Drift is what happens to other people — people who stopped caring, stopped believing, stopped trying. Drift feels dramatic from the outside. From the inside, it feels responsible. It feels like showing up, doing what ...read more

    This is the fourth set of words Jesus utters from the cross. It is a pivotal phrase and is purposefully the fourth statement he made. While this utterance could call the relationship between God and Jesus into question, it actually melds it and shows how
