Praising God brings us back to a place of having a proper perspective, regardless of our circumstances.

We all encounter problems in life. However, as believers we have the truth and hope that God is present with us, even in hard circumstances.

In this final message on the Reframe Principle (part 3) in the Winning The War In Your Mind series, we will look at what it means to see and understand life using the filter of God's goodness. God's goodness is so great and permeating it could be characterized as collateral goodness.

In this message we will have our thinking reframed as we see that God is sovereign, having a perspective and plan we often don't understand in the present. This understanding may come later on in life or sometimes not at all, in which case we must still trust God and His sovereignty. God does not always give you what you want but rather what you need.

In this message we will look at what it means to reframe past experiences using the Word of God. Experience evaluated biblically is part of renewing your mind and equipping yourself for present and future situations.

This week we will look at the ways in which Scripture guides us in the journey of salvation and renewal.

This week we will dive deeper into addressing the ruts in our lives. We will look at the importance of digging a trench of God’s truth that redirects our thinking and living.

When lies take root in our lives they develop into ruts, patterns of living and thinking, that are not what God would have for us. This week we'll explore the ruts in our lives and how to begin to address them.

In this third message in our series Winning the War in Your Mind we will see that the truth of God's Word must become a counter-weapon to the lies that try to deceive us. We will probe deeply into how to capture the lie and replace it with the truth of God's Word. Ask the Holy Spirit to anoint you as you listen to this message. It's the capstone message on the Replacement Principle.

In this week's "Winning The War In Your Mind" message we will look into what it means to be a thought warrior. You have divine power through the Holy Spirit to truly take your thoughts captive. The question, asked and addressed in this message, is: Will you move from self-reliance to Spirit-reliance?

This week we begin our series "Winning The War In Your Mind." Our goal is to think about what we think about. A big theme for the first three messages will be to remove the lies and replace them with truth. In this first message we will see that a lie believed can affect your life as though it were true. Listen with an open heart and ask the Lord which lies are holding you captive and how can these be replaced with truth from God's Word.

God instituted the Sabbath for us to rest, but most of us either neglect it or use it as a day off. Join us in looking at why the Sabbath is important and how we can begin practicing it in our own lives.

When we live surrendered to God’s plan for our lives we discover that God calls us and empowers us to have a redemptive influence in the lives of others.

In this week's message we will look at Isaiah 55 and see that God has a different way to do life. This chapter is a great summary of what it means to come to and follow the Lord.

In this message from Psalm 124 we will gain insight on how dependent we really are on the Lord. Understanding your dependence on Jesus is critical to becoming who you are meant to be. Listen to this message expecting God to move in your life.

This Sunday we will be going over Psalm 139 which reminds us of the personal nature of God’s involvement in and the value He places on our lives.

There are times when we lose all hope. Whatever it is feels like it’s never going to get better. In those moments, God provides hope. Through Ezekiel's vision in the valley, we see how God’s breath brings life to the lifeless and hope to the hopeless.

From the example of David bringing the ark to Jerusalem we learn the importance of following God's prescribed ways. Following God's prescribed ways with passion is powerful.

In this message we will see that God often uses Wilderness experiences in our lives to profoundly change us and grow us in our faith. The Wilderness can be a place of self-awareness, renewed reliance on God and preparation for God's purposes in our lives.

In Acts 17, Paul finds himself in two different contexts: one sacred and one secular. Between these two different spaces, Paul communicates about Jesus in a different way. In our current day, we experience both of these contexts still. Therefore, we can learn from Paul on how to effectively communicate the Gospel today.

The moment we’ve all been waiting for! Daniel is thrown into the Lions' Den by a deceived King Darius. We will explore the differences between a confident Daniel and a distraught King Darius and how those differences matter when we face situations that are bigger than ourselves.

In this message from Daniel 6, we will see that Daniel was a man of integrity and his enemies could find no basis for a charge against him. So they concluded the only way they could bring any kind of accusation against him would have to be in regards to his following God's ways. What a statement about a life of holiness! In this message we will learn from Daniel's example of how to live a holy life.

In this message we will be looking at Daniel 5. It's an amazing account of God's divine intervention. We will see that God is sovereign over all and that He will not be profaned. This message was relevant in Daniel's day and is still relevant in ours.

In this message from Daniel 4 we'll see that God humbles the proud. He turns our “I” and “me” to “Him” and “He.” It’s a passage on what happens when we don’t acknowledge God as one who has all power and authority, and instead assume we do.

In this message from Daniel 3 we'll see that Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego chose to be thrown into a fiery furnace rather than disobey the first two of the 10 Commandments. It's a story full of insight on how to handle the fiery trials that come to the follower of God. If we take these insights to heart it will change how we live our lives.

Everybody serves something or someone whether we realize it or not. But it’s important to answer the question “Who is your king?” because as Daniel points out to King Nebuchadnezzar in his dream, there’s only one kingdom that will last forever. Who we serve and what we do can either pass away like every other king and kingdom, or it can be part of God’s greater story that will never end.

In this week's message from the book of Daniel, we will see that God operates on a different level than humankind. He delivers by His wisdom and power. A crazy request by King Nebuchadnezzar becomes an opportunity for God to be recognized and exalted.

In this second message from our series Daniel: Holy Living in a Fractured World, we will see how Daniel addresses the challenges of his captivity. His captors were trying to indoctrinate him and asking him to compromise. Daniel drew a line in the sand but did so with great compassion and wisdom. He models for us how to be in this world but not be of this world. May you be inspired by his example to live a holy life.

This message begins our 10-week series from Daniel chapters 1-6. This week we will look at Daniel 1:1-7 and see that there are faith tests we often face when life as we know it ends and God begins a new chapter in our lives.

In Psalm 78 we are commanded to tell the GENERATIONS to come see what God has done in our lives. Our testimonies are an important part of continuing the faith for future generations. (Children's ministry will be available for birth through 5 years old only.)

Have you ever come to a point in your life where you ask, "Now what?" The disciples faced that very question after the ascension of Jesus. This message completes our Easter Explained series and uses Acts 1:1-11 as an outline to answer the question of "Now what?"

In this Easter message we will see that Philippians 2:5-11 is a summary of the Gospel. It's an epic story of Jesus leaving the glory of heaven to come to earth and humbly die for fallen humanity. But that is just the first half of the story. Jesus has been raised from the dead, is glorified and has returned to the glory of heaven. He is now and forevermore Savior! It is believed that the early church used these verses in Philippians as a creed, a way to remember the gospel. May we also use it that way.

The Bible illustrates over and over again that life is full of choices that lead to very contrasting outcomes. As his days were coming to an end, Moses challenged the people of Israel to choose life. He said if they did not choose life, then they were choosing death. As we explore some of the contrasts that were part of Jesus' Triumphal Entry into Jerusalem, we are to understand that there are watershed choices that lead to very different outcomes.

Jesus’ last words on the cross at first sound difficult as He cries out, “My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me?” However, this declaration actually points us towards hope. We will explore how these last words of Jesus help us navigate our own challenges with hope and trust in God’s power and purpose.

Why is the Christian teaching on the resurrection so important? In a day and age where it may be tempting to see the resurrection as an impossibility, we will look at the miracle of Jesus' rising from the dead as a core truth in Christian teaching as we study the meaning, purpose, and significance of the resurrection.

This is the first message in our "Easter Explained" series. In this message we will answer the question, "Why was Jesus Crucified?"

This is our final message in the "Becoming Whole in a Fracture World" series. To become whole we must understand and live out a biblical justice. God's justice is not about retribution. The follower of Christ is called to participate in God's righting of this wrong world.

This Sunday, we will learn about forgiveness. First, that forgiveness is God’s gift to us in Christ, but also becomes a gift to others as we live out and offer forgiveness to those who have offended us.

This week we will explore how conflict can actually be a bridge, not a barrier, to greater unity and health.

We live in a culture of reactivity. In this message we will look at how to have a calm presence in the face of anxiety. Part of becoming whole is getting to the point where the peace of Jesus, rather than the circumstances you are dealing with,sets the tone of your countenance .

Humility releases God's grace in the life of the believer which is essential for the believer to be made whole in this broken world. In this message we will dive deeply into what it means to be humble (poor in spirit) and how this is advantageous. We will spend a lot of time looking at how to cultivate humility.

This week we begin to look at the new pattern of living that we are called to in Christ. Prayer is a key step on the path to living a better way in Christ.

This week we will explore the Bible’s promise that God is present with His people in their suffering and promises to bring healing to our areas of brokenness.

In this weekend's message, the second in our "Becoming Whole in a Fractured World" series, we will see how powers and principalities contribute to the brokenness. ​This timely and relevant message will identify what these powers and principalities are, how they fracture and what we can begin to do to stand against them.

We begin our "Becoming Whole in a Fractured World" series with this message. Reality has been fractured by sin. Sin is really a failure to love God and love others. We can't talk authentically or accurately about ourselves or society without addressing sin. This message addresses sin and its consequences. ​

God longs for us to be restored. We will dive into what that means and look at 3 examples of how Jesus restored from death to life.

In this last Christmas message for 2022 we will look at the wise men and their journey to find the Christ Child. The interactions they experienced along their journey are illustrative of common responses to Jesus. May we seek Christ as the wisemen did!

Have you ever looked at Jesus' family history closely? In this final Advent message before Christmas, we will see that Jesus' genealogy, in Matthew's Introduction to Jesus' birth, is full of examples of how God rewrites the stories of peoples' lives. The Old Testament often foretells what Jesus' ministry would be about and the stories of Jesus' ancestors are illustrative of how God has been, and still is, about drastic life change.

Christmas is a season of joy, yet in the busyness of life joy often gets lost. This week we will explore how the rhythm of advent helps us cultivate a life of joy.
