The pandemic has radically changed our lives. But as we begin to return to some sense of normal, what should be returning to? Life as it was before or something BETTER?

Everyone knows how important it is to raise a child to follow and listen to adults, but what if adults were called to follow children? In our passage this week, Jesus actually calls us to do just that. Listen to this message to see the important connection between kids and God's kingdom.

If we have been following Jesus for a long time, it can be easy for many of us to become overly confident in our own righteousness instead of the righteousness of Jesus. In our section out of Luke for this week, Jesus tells a parable that speaks to overly proud people. Listen to this message as we all are reminded of our need for repentance whether it is the first time or the thousandth.

Many of us have questions about prayer, but the most asked question is: "Does prayer actually work?" In this first message of (Un)Expected Examples, Pastor Matt dives into this important question by working through the parable of the persistent widow.

President and Executive Minister of Converge Rocky Mountain, Paul Mitton joins us this weekend for a special message about Joy.

When we think of the church, we often think of a building or the church that we attend, but the Church is so much bigger than we think it is. The church is growing and expanding all throughout the world through missionaries, rallies, pastors, and regular Christians caring about the people in their lives. Listen to this message from our missionary to Estonia Crick Porier as we kick off a short series about the church BEYOND OUR WALLS.

Throughout this series we have been talking about being lost and being found, but what happens when we are really lost? Can we actually become eternally lost by the choices we make? Listen to this message as Pastor Matt dives into the important words of Jesus regarding his return, salvation, and the true realities of being lost and being found.

We all deal with sinners every day. How do we love the sinners around us? Learn two ways Jesus teaches us to deal with other people's sins. Listen to this message as we hear from Jesus about how we are actually called to deal with the sins of other people.

The existence of heaven and hell are often things we don't think about and if we are honest don't really want to think about. Despite our apprehension, the Bible and Jesus have a lot to say about the afterlife. Listen to this message as we dive into a very interesting parable Jesus told about the afterlife and the eternal implications it has for all people.

From a young age, it is engrained in us that certain topics are off-limits to talk about in group settings. That it is not polite to discuss politics or religion, or gossip about others. And yet, the one thing that no one wants to talk about is #money and finances. Despite our hesitancy, Jesus spent A LOT of time talking about money and the impact that it can have on our relationship with God. Listen in as we discuss how money can so often leave us lost and where true security can be FOUND.
