  7. What Counts? New Life

    What really counts in the Christian life? In this message, What Counts? New Life, we explore the truth that God is not merely interested in behavior modification—He's after transformation. Through Christ, we are given a new identity, a new heart, and a new way of living. The gospel doesn't just...

  8. Wanting What Jesus Wants // Like & Subscribe Week 5

    Most people define freedom as the ability to do whatever they want. But what if our wants are part of the problem?The Apostle Paul says true freedom isn't found in following every impulse or desire that comes our way. Freedom is learning to want what Jesus wants. That's why Christianity is about…

  10. Am I Lovable? // Like & Subscribe Week 4

    One of the hardest questions people carry is this: “If people really knew me… would they still stay?” Most of us spend our lives trying to prove we’re lovable through performance, approval, success, or image. But Galatians 4 reminds us that the gospel does not begin with us becoming lovable…

  12. Unsubscribe from Performance // Like & Subscribe Week 3

    Every day, we’re counting on something to tell us we matter. For many of us, it’s performance—what we do, how we measure up, whether we’re getting it right. But what happens when what you’re counting on… fails? Paul’s words to the Galatians press right into that question. Because if your sense of...

  13. Like & Subscribe to Acceptance in Christ // Like & Subscribe Week 2

    Most of us don’t wake up trying to replace the gospel, but we do it anyway. We measure ourselves, compare ourselves, and quietly ask, Am I enough? And when the answer feels uncertain, we either try to prove it or protect it. But the gospel offers something entirely different: a settled identity...

  16. Start Living From the Ending // Easter Sunday

    This Easter Sunday we reflected on how the empty tomb is not just a moment in history, but a present reality that changes everything about how we live today. Through the message, we were reminded that what seemed like defeat on the cross was actually God’s greatest triumph over sin and death....

  17. Palm Sunday // Mistaken Identity

    This past Sunday, we gathered for Palm Sunday and looked at the powerful theme of mistaken identity. As Jesus entered Jerusalem, the crowds celebrated Him as the King they expected, but not the Savior they truly needed. We explored how easy it is to place our own expectations on Jesus, shaping…

  18. Fully Engaged // 1 Corinthians 1:1-9

    This past Sunday, we took a look at 1 Corinthians 1:1–9. We invite you to reflect on the truth of who you are in Christ: Called, set apart, and covered by His grace. Our identity is not based on performance, but on who God has called us to be. God has already equipped us with everything we need...

  19. Jesus Makes All Things New // Binge the Bible Season 3

    This past Sunday we wrapped up Binge the Bible by looking at Revelation 21:1–5 and the final chapter of God’s story. After three seasons and 31 weeks walking through the Bible, we saw how the story ends, not with humanity escaping the earth, but with God restoring the world He created.Throughout...

  20. Curated Comfort // Binge the Bible Season 3

    This past Sunday, we continued Binge the Bible in Chapter 30 and looked at 2 Timothy 4:1–8. Paul’s final words to Timothy remind us that one of the biggest dangers to following Jesus isn’t a hostile culture, but curated comfort. Curated comfort happens when we quietly adjust our spiritual lives,...

  21. Binge the Bible Season 3 // Week 8

    On Sunday in Acts 13, we saw a clear and freeing truth:The gospel shifts our focus from pleasing people to pleasing God.As Paul proclaimed forgiveness and justification through Jesus, the room divided. Some rejoiced. Others resisted. And yet the disciples walked away filled with joy.Why? Because...

  22. Binge the Bible Season 3 // Week 7

    On Sunday, we continued our journey through The Story in Chapter 28 and saw what happens when the Kingdom goes public.In Acts 4:8–20, Peter and John stand before powerful authorities and refuse to be silent about Jesus. They weren’t reckless. They weren’t combative. They were compelled.Chapter 28...

  23. The Resurrection // Binge The Bible Season 3

    On Sunday we continued our journey through The Story in Chapter 27: The Resurrection, focusing on Luke 24:13–35.In this chapter, we saw how the risen King inaugurates His Kingdom through the Scriptures, the Cross, the Table, and the Mission. The disciples on the road to Emmaus misunderstood the...

  24. When Obedience Feels Lonely // Binge the Bible Season 3

    On Sunday, we continued Season 3 of Binge the Bible by stepping into one of the most honest moments in Jesus’ teaching. As Jesus prepares His disciples for the cross, He does something deeply pastoral: He tells them the truth about what obedience will feel like. He doesn’t promise clarity…

    more
  25. Still In Charge // Binge the Bible Season 3

    On Sunday, we continued Season 3 of Binge the Bible by turning to Mark 8:27–38—a pivotal moment in the story of Jesus and a defining passage for anyone who wants to follow Him. In this scene, the disciples finally get the confession right. Peter boldly declares that Jesus is the Messiah. But…

  26. What Christians Have Always Believed // Anchored

    Thank you for braving the weather and joining us on Sunday as we reflected on “Anchored: What Christians Have Always Believed.”

  27. Jesus Redefines Life // Binge the Bible Season 3

    On Sunday we continued Season 3 of Binge the Bible by turning to Luke 6:17–26 and listening to one of Jesus’ most challenging teachings. In this passage, Jesus doesn’t simply offer advice on how to live a better life, He redefines what life actually is.Surrounded by crowds seeking healing and...

  28. Not Just a Savior // Binge the Bible Season 3

    On Sunday, we continued Season 3 of Binge the Bible by looking at Jesus’ baptism in Matthew 3:13–17 and seeing Him not just as a Savior who helps us, but as the King who defines us. One important layer worth carrying into the week is this: Jesus’ baptism is not about repentance for sin, but about...

  29. The King Who Didn’t Meet Expectations // Binge The Bible Season 3

    On Sunday, we began Season 3 of Binge the Bible by meeting The King Who Didn’t Meet Expectations from John 1:9-14. One important layer worth adding is how intentionally John frames Jesus’ arrival not just as fulfillment, but as escalation. When John says, “The Word became flesh and made his...

  30. The virgin birth? // Matthew 1:18-25

    On Sunday, we stepped into one of the most challenging and quietly unsettling questions of the Christmas story: Do I really have to believe in the virgin birth? For many, this is not a question rooted in rebellion, but in honesty. Matthew does not shame that question. Instead, he invites us to...

  31. Why them? // Matthew 1:1-17

    On Sunday, we stepped into Matthew’s genealogy, the part of the Christmas story most of us are tempted to skip. It is a window into the heart of God. Before Jesus ever preached a sermon or performed a miracle, His family line was already preaching the gospel. Matthew shows us that Jesus came...

  32. Thanks and Giving // Week 2

    We had the chance on Sunday to sit with Psalm 116 and reflect on how gratitude doesn’t stop at remembering what God has done—it moves us to respond with worship, obedience, and open-handed generosity. When gratitude fills our hearts, generosity naturally flows from our lives. To help you carry…

    more
  33. Thanks And Giving // Gratitude

    On Sunday, we explored Paul’s call in 1 Thessalonians 5:16–18, a summons to a life that seems humanly impossible: one of constant joy, constant prayer, and constant gratitude. But Paul isn’t asking us to manufacture an emotional state; he’s inviting us into a new way of seeing reality. Gratitude…

  34. The God Who Invites Us to Test Him // Binge the Bible Season 2

    Most of us don’t like tests—but in Malachi 3, God flips the script. Instead of forbidding His people to test Him, He invites them to: “Test Me in this.” It’s as if God says, “Go ahead—trust Me first, and then watch what I do.” When we give God what’s first, He blesses what’s next. But when we…

    more
  35. The God Who Seems Absent // Binge The Bible: Season 2

    On Sunday, we explored the story of Esther—a story of courage, faith, and God’s hidden hand at work. Though God’s name is never mentioned in the book of Esther, His presence is unmistakable. When God seems silent in our own lives, we can follow Esther’s example by seeking Him through prayer,...

  36. The God Who Restores Worship // Binge The Bible: Season 2

    On Sunday we considered this truth: Revival begins with renewed worship, not renewed effort. We watched in Ezra 3 as God’s people came home to rubble—walls burned down, temple destroyed, dreams deferred. Before they rebuilt their world, they rebuilt their worship. They didn’t start with hammers;...

  37. The God Who Reigns // Daniel 2:36-44 & 3:16-18

    On Sunday we saw that when earthly power collides with divine authority, God’s Kingdom isn’t just surviving history—it’s directing it. Daniel’s friends didn’t stand because they were fearless; they stood because they were convinced. Their courage came from knowing who reigns above the fire.…

    more
  38. The God Who Has A Plan // Binge The Bible: Season 2

    When the temple fell, Israel lost the visible symbol of God’s presence—but not His presence itself. In exile, they learned to gather around Scripture, prayer, and community. That’s actually where the early roots of the synagogue began. Sometimes God removes what’s familiar so He can rebuild...

  39. The God Who Is Holy and Merciful // Binge The Bible Season 2

    On Sunday, we continued Binge the Bible: Season 2 with this truth: God’s holiness convicts us, His mercy redeems us, and His grace compels us to serve. That’s what we saw in Isaiah’s vision of the Lord in Isaiah 6. In the year that King Uzziah died, Isaiah saw the Lord seated on the throne, high...

  40. The God Who Calls Us Back // Binge The Bible: Season 2

    On Sunday we continued Binge the Bible: Season 2 with this truth: The God who calls us back demands a decision — and Jesus has already made His for you. That’s what we saw on Mount Carmel and again in the message of Amos. God’s people had been living double lives—offering lip service to Yahweh...

  41. The God Who Calls Us to Remember // Psalm 78:1-8

    On Sunday we began Binge the Bible: Season 2 with this truth: If we don’t retell God’s story, we’ll forget the Savior at the center of it. Now, let’s think about that. Every one of us is living inside some kind of story. Modern secular culture says the story is: you’re an accident of atoms, so...

  42. Let Scripture Shape You // 1 Timothy 3:12-17

    On Sunday we ended our When in Doubt series with Paul’s words to Timothy: “All Scripture is God-breathed and useful… so that the servant of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.” (2 Timothy 3:16–17) Here’s a thought I didn’t get to share: our culture often treats truth like a...

  43. Trade Venting for Lamenting // Habakkuk 3:1-2

    This Sunday, we discovered that when in doubt, we need to trade venting for lamenting. Venting only releases steam, but lament takes our pain vertical to God. Think of it as the difference between yelling at a wall and speaking to a Father—one just echoes back, the other listens and responds.…

    more
  44. When in Doubt // Week 1 // John 20:24-29 // Rob Ryerson

    This Sunday we looked at the story of Thomas in John 20—the disciple often remembered for his doubts. But what if doubt isn’t the enemy of faith? What if it can actually be the doorway? Thomas needed more than words; he needed evidence. And Jesus didn’t shame him for that—He met Thomas right in…

  45. Good Work Begins and Ends with Rest // Stand Alone // Psalm 127:1–2 // Leon McKenzie

    In this message from Psalm 127:1–2, we explored what makes our work truly meaningful—aligning with God’s purposes, depending on His providence, and resting in His peace. Take time this week to dive deeper with the discussion guide and notes linked here, and discover practical ways to honor God...

  46. Don’t Drift: Grabbing Hold of God’s Vision // Habakkuk 2:2–3 // Rob Ryerson

    Drifting is natural, but dangerous—and without God’s vision at the center, our lives, families, and churches can be swept away. From Habakkuk 2 and Acts 1:8, we’re reminded that God anchors His people with a vision rooted in His promises and His mission. Discover how to stay grounded in prayer,...

  47. The Mystery of Christ: A Powerful Parable // Matthew 13:44–46 \\ Brad Crofoot

    Are the mysteries of Jesus meant to keep us out—or to draw us in? In this message, The Mystery of Christ: A Powerful Parable, we explore Matthew 13:44–46 and discover that the treasures of the Kingdom are hidden not to confuse us, but to invite us deeper. Just like a man who stumbled upon hidden...

  48. How Not to Lead // 1 Peter 5:1-4 // Rob Ryerson

    True leadership isn’t about titles—it’s about the posture of your heart. Every one of us has a “table” of influence, whether at home, work, school, or church. In 1 Peter 5:1–4, we see that leadership in God’s Kingdom flows from humility, not hierarchy—choosing to kneel before we lead, just as…

    more
  49. Matilda // Blockbusters, Week 3 // Leon McKenzie

    What if your "difference" is exactly what God wants to use? In this message, we dive into the beloved 90’s film Matilda to uncover how God empowers us with unique spiritual gifts—not to isolate us, but to unite us.The Apostle Paul reminds us that though we are many, we are one body in Christ....

  50. Toystory // Blockbusters, Week 2 // Kile Baker

    What does Toy Story have in common with the words of Moses in Deuteronomy? More than you think. In this message, we explore how themes of identity, loyalty, and purpose from a beloved 90's classic intersect with God's call to remember who we are and who He is.Whether you're made of plastic or…
