Jesus brings forth a new type of righteousness as he calls us to not merely obey the letter law, but to learn God's intent for its heart.

Join Pastor AJ Vanegas and Austin Payne as we discuss the power of Biblical invitation!

Christianity is a faith of invitation. From the very beginning, Jesus and His followers constantly extended the invitation to know Jesus, to believe, to repent of their old ways and be baptized into a new way of life. Our church will be invited into this sacred work, to love their neighbors and to accomplish the Great Commission as disciples of Jesus."Let's Go!" series • Austin Payne

Join Pastor Danny Strange and Pastor AJ Vanegas as we discuss Biblical giving and what it might mean for us today!

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

Join Pastor Danny Strange and Pastor AJ Vanegas as we discuss what it looks like to become a church that "loves one another"

Christian community is essential to a thriving life in Christ.

Through this, people will be called to join in community or be encouraged to continue in their community.Let's Go! series • Danny Strange

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?

Have you ever met someone who used the Bible as a weapon? Bible thumping preachers and Christians have caused all kinds of harm throughout history, and also draw attention to some problematic concepts in the text itself. If this book is the clearest window into the nature of God, how can I believe in the God of sexism, slavery, and slaughter?Dr. Danny Strange • Explore God series

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? Is it possible that some of the other religions have found God too? In other words, can one religion have all the answers?Dr. Danny Strange • Explore God series

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
