Going Deeper: Let's Give to The Lord
Join Pastor Danny Strange and Pastor AJ Vanegas as we discuss Biblical giving and what it might mean for us today!

Let's Give to the Lord (Full Sermon)
Jesus talked about money more than prayer and faith combined. That’s because money is probably the most important resource in our lives. It’s what we need to have a roof over our heads, to put clothes on our backs, to put food on the table, to bless our kids and grandkids, and more. We will learn the importance of surrendering this important resource to the Lord so we can find freedom and join in the Kingdom work.Let's Go! series • Danny Strange

Christian community is essential to a thriving life in Christ.

Counterfeits. Phonies. Pretenders. Why is the Church full of people like this? Today we tackle this question head-on: What is hypocrisy? Why are Christians so susceptible?

Can One Religion Have All the Answers? (Full Sermon)
There are 6.9 Billion people in the world, and each of us has to make a decision regarding who God is. This decision has sparked Holy Wars and split families. How can anyone be sure they’re found the truth? Is it arrogant to believe we can see clearly and everyone else is still stumbling around in the dark?

Can I Have Jesus Without All the “God” Stuff? (Full Sermon)
Jesus is the most influential person in the history of the world. But the question must be asked, “How did someone with such extreme and even unbelievable views become as famous as Jesus did?” When there are some things about Jesus that we want to hold onto and some we want to ignore or reject, the question we need to answer is, “who was Jesus, really?”Dr. Danny Strange • Explore God series

Life is Good! Why Should I Care About God? (Full Sermon)
It’s common for many of us to receive unsolicited letters or emails that we barely glance at before dismissing. Simply put, we're just not interested.
