Pastor Drew shares from God's word on having ears to hear what the Lord is saying. Not just new information but a revelation from His word that has relevance to our lives.

This week we have to honor of welcoming Steve & Erin Pavek as our special guest speakers. Steve and Erin planted Chi Alpha at the University of Alaska, Anchorage 7 years ago. They have a heart to see all of Alaska reached for the Gospel. Join us this morning as Steve challenges us to share the gospel to those around us in a way they can understand.

Sunday Evening Service - Tonight we welcome back Steve Pavek. Steve and Erin are Chi Alpha Missionaries to Alaska. They're prayer is to reach all of Alaska with the Gospel of Jesus. Tonight Steve shares from the book of Leviticus on the 3 different offering made to God - guilt offering, burnt offering, and fellowship offering.

The Apostle Paul encourages us to continue to daily be crucified with Christ. We begin our walk with Jesus in surrender and we must continue our journey with Him in surrender. This morning Pastor Drew challenges us to just simply yield daily to Jesus.

When the Lord Jesus becomes our sustenance and our daily bread is when we truly learn to abide in Him. This Sunday, Pastor Drew challenges us to grow in our dependence on Jesus.

Jesus can do so much with our "little" if we put it into His hands! This week Pastor Drew takes us through John 6 where Jesus multiplies the loaves and fish. God is asking us to surrender the little we have so He can truly do something amazing with it.

Psalm 24 says, "Lift up your heads, O gates! And be lifted up, O ancient doors, that the King of glory may come in." Pastor Drew challenges us to open up the gate of our heart and let the King of glory enter every part of who we are.

As we conclude our Awakening Series, Pastor Tony defines for us what The Jesus Church looks like according to the Book of Acts. In many ways, we have defined what a "normal" church should be like from our experience and the world, rather than allowing God to shape and define what is the normal church from His perspective.

God's presence is what distinguishes the Church from the world. He is what gives us significance and value. He is the Spring of Living Water and without Him we are in a dry and parched land. The Church today needs to people who long for His presence more deeply and allow Jesus to be our King! Without King Jesus we are nothing.

In Jeremiah chapter 2, God is reminiscing about the days of Israel's youth when they loved Him and followed Him whole heartedly. Israel had drifted away from Him and had begun following worthless idols. And now, God was calling them back to Himself. We are not unlike Israel. We have a propensity towards wandering away from God to empty things, but God is calling us back to Himself.

This week we have the privilege of welcoming Pastor Austin Weaver to be our special guest speaker. Austin and his family pastor and reside in Des Moines and have been longtime friends of LifePointe. Today he shares a message on passing the baton of faith to the next generation.

The next generation deserves a opportunity to experience the power of God in an authentic way. Without an encounter with Him, we will produce an empty performance based religion. Jesus shows us the fruit of such a life in many of His encounters with the Pharisees. In Luke 18, Jesus tells us a parable of the Pharisee and the Tax Collector to show that God is looking for a humble a repentant heart.

Fellowship with the Holy Spirit is one of the most beautiful benefits of following Jesus. The nearness that comes in walking with Him is priceless. So how do we have fellowship with the Spirit? This morning Pastor Tony gives us some helpful principles for experiencing the Holy Spirit daily.

The presence of God is the what distinguishes His people from the world. He desires that His presence invade every part of our lives. That is why we honor Him with our worship and we pray the prayer, 'Come Lord Jesus", so that He might come and change, transform, and renew our region.

Our status with God, our access to Him, or His opinion of us is not based on our behavior. It is based entirely on the power of Jesus' blood. His blood is enough! It is strong enough! This morning, Pastor Alex shares from Acts 11 on God declaring what was once unclean, has now been made clean.

God is calling us to take new ground! But in order to take new ground we will have to go a way we've not been before. We will have to trust and follow God in ways we have not before. Pastor Drew shares from Joshua about God leading the Israelites across the Jordan.

Humanity has always desired a leader who is just and will fight our battles for us. We were created to be citizens of a kingdom not of this world, God's kingdom. In 1 Samuel, Israel rejects God as King and instead asks for a king like other nations. Listen this morning as Pastor Drew shares why Jesus is the one true King!

Humanity has always been inclined to cast our affections on things other than God. But God has always had a desire to woo His people back to Himself. He doesn't want to share us with anything else! This morning, Pastor Drew shares a word from 1 Samuel 7 on Israel turning their hearts from idols back to God.

The glory of God upon a people is what makes them distinct. It protects and transforms a people. But what if the glory lifts from a people? Pastor Drew shares from 1 Samuel when the glory lifts from God's people and they are defeated by the Philistines. May we be a people known for His glory!

All throughout history God has revealed Himself to mankind. And those who experience His presence are marked by it and changed. This morning. Pastor Nicole shares about being a people who establish God's presence.

What happens when it seems like God is silent? What happens when we need a word from God but one doesn't seem to come? Today Pastor Drew shares about hearing God's voice in the most crucial times.

Every generation needs their own encounter with Jesus. We rejoice in what God has done and our faith is built by hearing of revivals in the past, but we need an awakening in this generation! Pastor Drew kicks off this new series as we contend for a mighty move of God.

As we conclude our series "Life Together", Pastor Tony shares a message on the church staying true to it's mission. In Acts 4 we see God respond to the prayers of His people and shakes them to the core. The results is a people empowered to do what God has called them to.

As we continue in our series "Life Together", Pastor Drew challenges us with a message on having a heart that is unable to be offended. We see a world constantly offended with every little thing, but the church in not exempt for offense either. Often you'll find offense in the church just as ramped as you will in the world. God has something better for us!

This morning Pastor Drew shares from Psalm 23 on Jesus the Shepherd King.

The kingdom of God should infiltrate and inform every part of our lives. And the truth is that God has purpose and intention for our families. How we function and the mission we are on as a family should be seen through the lens of kingdom. Join us this morning as Pastor Drew continues our series "Life Together".

Today we start a new series entitled "Life Together". Over the next coming weeks we will explore what the relationships in our lives look like through the lens of God's kingdom. This morning, Pastor Tony shares a message on marriage in the kingdom.
