    Despite our differences, gratitude can bring us together and foster unity.

    You know, I was reading this survey from last year that said a lot of people who supported Trump or Biden didn't have any close friends who supported the other guy. Kinda crazy, right? We tend to hang out with people who think the same way we do, and that can sometimes make us forget about what we ...read more

    God, as the ultimate authority, has the power to show mercy and harden hearts. He has chosen us, and we have the opportunity to choose Him back. His love and mercy are gifts that He freely gives to us.

    You know how in art class, the teacher gives you a lump of clay and you get to shape it into whatever you want? Well, that's kind of like what God does with us. We're like the clay, and He's the potter. He's the one in charge, shaping us into who He wants us to be. Think about it: God, the creator ...read more

    God Suffers With Us Youth Sermon

     | 695 views

    Main Idea: God not only suffers for us, but also with us. His co-suffering love is demonstrated through Jesus' life, death, and resurrection. As followers of Jesus, we are called to co-suffer with others, bringing life and healing.

    You know how sometimes life just sucks? Well, Jesus gets it. He knew He was about to go through some really rough stuff, like dying on a cross. But He also knew that by going through that, He'd be able to help a lot of people. Just like when you're playing a tough level in a video game, you know ...read more

    Teach Us To Pray Series

    Contributed by Joel Gilbert on Aug 11, 2025
     | 255 views

    Following a time of prayer, one of Jesus' disciples asked Him to teach them how to pray. Luke records an abbreviated version of the Lord's prayer and then includes elements that encourage us to be bold in our prayer, promising provision and presence from God.

    Over the last couple of sections of Luke’s gospel, we’ve considered the importance of loving God with all that we are and loving others. We’ve also reflected on the value of sitting before Jesus in order to just be with Him and learn before we get in to the practice of serving. It seems like in ...read more

    When we look at The Greatest Commandment—loving God with all our heart, soul, and mind, and loving our neighbor as ourselves. We begin to realize that love isn’t just something we feel or believe—it’s something we do. Imagine if a ...read more

    Humanity creates designer spirituality, but only Jesus Christ—Creator, Judge, Savior, and the only Way—can satisfy the soul and secure eternity.

    Opening Narrative — The Empty Shelf I was in a bookstore not long ago—one of those big ones where the scent of coffee hits you before you even step through the doors. I’d stopped in to find a Bible commentary. Something quiet. Something theological. The kind of book you expect to find tucked away ...read more

     | 148 views

    Salvation rests not on our fragile belief but on the unbreakable faithfulness of Jesus, whose obedience secures our eternal assurance.

    Introduction — When Faith Feels Fragile There are moments in life when faith feels small—thin as the line of light that leaks under a closed door. Maybe you’ve stood there, wondering if God still remembers your name. You’ve tried to believe, but the doubts keep whispering: Is my faith enough? Am ...read more

    Faith matures as we surrender to God’s shaping hands—trusting, obeying, and allowing His grace to form Christ’s likeness within us.

    Introduction — From Saved to Shaped When we first meet Jesus, faith saves us. But when we keep walking with Him, faith begins to shape us. The same grace that opens the door of salvation now wants to renovate the house. God never intended faith to be a momentary flash of belief — He designed it ...read more

     | 254 views

    The first candle of Advent is the Candle of Hope—a small flame that speaks into the long darkness of a weary world. Hope does not deny reality; it defies it. It does not ignore the brokenness around us; it simply believes God is greater than the brokenness.

    Why was the fact that Jesus was born of a virgin so central to the Gospel message, and what can it mean to our faith?

    In England, an elementary class set up the manger scene in a corner of the room. The students were excited to help set up the barn and cover the floor with straw and then arrange the clay figures of Mary, Joseph, the shepherds, the Wise Men, and the animals –all facing a little crib where was ...read more

    Isaiah's prophesy is filled with wonder and promise. Jesus fulfilled it upon His arrival and continues to fulfill it everyday.

    Introduction: A. I want to begin with a quote from Frederick Buechner (Beekner), who was an American minister, theologian, and author of 39 books: “For outlandish creatures like us, on our way to a heart, a brain, and courage, Bethlehem is not the end of our journey but only the beginning - not ...read more

    This sermon encourages Christians to utilize their divine light, or spiritual gifts, to serve God and others, rather than hiding or diminishing them.

    Good morning, beloved family of God. As we gather here today, let us remember that we are all bearers of a light, a divine spark that has been bestowed upon us by our Creator. This light is not meant to be hidden away, but to shine brightly, illuminating the paths of those around us, and leading ...read more
