What if church equipped us to go out and make a difference, not just sit and listen? In the final part of our Reach series, Pastor Chris takes us to Acts 13 and helps us rethink what it means to be a body of believers. It’s not just about showing up on Sundays; it’s about being sent out to share the Gospel.The Church in Antioch didn’t stay comfortable or play it safe. They fasted, prayed, listened to the Holy Spirit, and sent everyone to spread the Good News of Jesus. This message reminds us that we're all called to go, whether it’s across the world or across the street.

The message of Easter tells us that Jesus defeated death, rose from the grave, and ascended into Heaven, where He now sits at the right hand of God. This is a powerful story, but if we’re honest, the thought of Christ’s ascension can be a confusing idea.So, what does His ascension really mean? Listen in as we talk about how God's plan for our Savior resulted in Jesus ruling over us with intention, interceding for us with love, and commissioning us for a special mission.

What if the resurrection wasn’t just a moment in history—but the turning point of your life?The death and resurrection of Jesus isn’t just an annual reflection—it’s the event that changed everything. In the Gospel of Mark, we meet four witnesses who reveal who Jesus is: a Roman soldier who calls Him the Son of God, a religious leader who buries Him as King, women who proclaim Him risen, and a young man in white who points to our hope of new life.Jesus conquered the grave, breaks our sin cycles, and offers us restoration. By placing your faith and trust in Christ’s hands, He offers a way out of shame and gives us a garment of new life and renewal.Listen in and discover how the risen Christ invites you into a new beginning.

In Mark chapter 11, Jesus enters Jerusalem at the beginning of Holy Week, where He reveals Himself as the Messiah to the multitudes who had traveled there to celebrate the Passover. Now, thousands of years later, His identity remains the same: our righteous deliverer and promised king.Jesus is the solution to our sin, emptiness, and restlessness — so how will you respond to His arrival? We have the choice to either accept and celebrate His offer of salvation, or reject Him and face His judgement. Listen in as we unpack God's message to us through Christ's entry into Jerusalem: I have come to set you free!

What does it mean when believers take Communion? As followers of Christ, Communion calls us to unity, personal reflection, and the public declaration of our faith. The act of taking Communion impacts both our walk with Jesus and our relationships with brothers and sisters in Christ. Join us as we take a deeper look at God’s design through the lens of the Lord’s Supper.1 Corinthians 11:17-34 ESV

You can’t escape God. That might sound unsettling, and you may wonder how it's even possible. The truth is, God is sovereign—He reigns over the world and our lives. His power is unmatched, and His justice is perfect. When God calls you, there’s no running away from responding to Him. His purpose is intentional, His passion is invitational, and His power is undeniable. The Creator of the universe desires a personal relationship with us, and His love for us is vast and unshakable. Join us as we explore what it truly means when God calls us and why His invitation is inescapable.

Have you ever put Jesus in a box? It’s easy for us to shape Christ into the Person we have in our minds, but in doing so, we'll fail to see Him for who He truly is—the great I AM. Jesus is not someone we can mold to our liking; He is the living Savior who deserves our full reverence and trust. By His grace, let's open our hearts to the true Jesus, allowing His nature to shape us—not the other way around. Join us as we discover how God’s people can rightly know Jesus.John 9:1-43 ESV

Have you ever failed to truly recognize Jesus? It’s easy for us to shape Christ into the image we desire in our minds, but in doing so, we fail to see Him for who He truly is—the great I AM. Jesus is not someone we can mold to our liking; He is the living Savior who deserves our full reverence and understanding. By His grace, let us open our hearts to the true Jesus, allowing His nature to reshape us. Join us as we reflect on this question and discover how God’s people can rightly know Jesus.Join us as we will be in John 6:14-21 (ESV).

What are your motives for following Jesus? Perhaps you've never considered this, or maybe you have. Either way, our true reasons for following Jesus will eventually reveal themselves. Not everyone follows Him for the right reasons—some may follow only for personal gain, rather than seeking a genuine relationship with Christ. As we walk with Him, it's important to reflect on our motives and ensure they align with His purpose. Listen in as we walk through John 6:1-15, 25-35.

How does Jesus demonstrate His divine authority? In the Gospels, we see Jesus healing the sick, drawing people to repentance, and working on the Sabbath. These counter-cultural acts revealed His ultimate authority as the Son of God. Jesus is the sovereign Lord who commands us to live in the fullness of His grace, repent of our sins, and join in His ongoing work of renewal in the world. Listen in as we walk through John 5:1-18.

Our culture is defined by conditional allegiances. IF you do what I expect, THEN I will do what you expect. IF you love me the right way, THEN will I love you the right way. Conditional relationships with our spouses, with our families, with our friends, with our kids, with our bosses, with our barbers, with our baristas, with everybody. They all have requirements. Since conditional and transactional relationships dominate the way we relate to one another, do you think it’s possible we put conditions on Christ? Lets jump into part 3 of our series "Signs of the King" to explore how the bible instructs us to interface with these cultural tensions.

We are continuing in our message series, Signs of the King, looking at the Gospel of John to discover who Jesus is. In life, we are constantly searching for direction. We desire guidance, even if we are getting it from the wrong places. As a result of our misguided searches, we are left even further from our hope. The Bible makes it clear for us, that in every circumstance, we can lean on Jesus. What does it mean to lean on Jesus? We must come to Jesus, fully obey Him, and receive the gift of Christ. When we are in Christ, we can rest in the truth that we can trust and lean on Him in any and everything. Join us for another message of the series, The Secret Sign, and discover how you can lean on Jesus in all circumstances.

Do you know what the Book of Signs is? You may not have heard of it before but it’s another name for the Book of John. The Gospel of John helps us understand Jesus, the crowds, the disciples, and ourselves. We are beginning a new sermon series titled, Signs of the King, where we will dive into the first eleven books of John while looking at the signs and wonders Jesus performed. As we walk through each of these chapters, we will consider openly who Jesus is and what that means for us. So, what will you find if you investigate Jesus? When we’re in Christ, we discover that He answers honest skepticism, honors sincere inquiry, and calls for sustained attention. We are offered an invitation to investigate Jesus, and that invitation can lead to spiritual illumination. Join us for the first message of the series, Come and See, and pay attention to how the Lord may be stirring in your heart.

Today, as we turn our attention to the last section of Jesus’ prayer in John 17, we see another group of people who are on his mind and heart, all that would believe in Him. As Jesus stood on the precipice of the pinnacle of His work of salvation, Jesus looked forward to all those in the years, decades, and even centuries ahead who would trust in his life-saving work and surrender to His Lordship, and he prayed for them. So, if someone’s prayer life reveals their concerns and desires, what does Jesus’ final prayer section reveal about His desire for His followers? Join us today as we dive into this important life defining question.

We have been studying John 17 throughout our series, Why Pray? In this passage, we read a prayer that Jesus prayed just hours before His crucifixion. At the Last Supper, we see Him praying to His Father over His disciples and His purpose. Within Christ’s prayer, we can find the purpose that He longs for us, His children, to have. Because we're set apart as followers of Christ, our purpose is found in Jesus and built on Him alone. It's all about Jesus. Join us for our latest sermon, How Do We Know God’s Purpose for Us? and find out why prayer is so vital to knowing our purpose in Christ.
