    Who Do You Say I Am?

    Jesus asked over three hundred questions. Three hundred. In the four Gospels alone. Jesus — the one person who actually had all the answers — spent most of His ministry asking questions. That's not an accident. Jesus never asked a question because He needed information. He already knew. He asked because something else was happening. Every question He asked was an invitation. An opening. A way of saying — I see you, and I want you to see yourself.So, for the next several weeks, we're going to listen.Not for the answer. But for the invitation underneath the question. Join us this week as we kick off our summer series: Questions Jesus Asked.

    Still Here

    May is Mental Health Awareness Month. The national conversation is already happening. "Still" is our church’s way of stepping into that conversation and saying: we have something to offer. Not just awareness — but a God who shows up when your mind won’t settle down.  Struggling with mental health doesn’t mean your faith is broken. It means you’re human. Join us this week as we kick off Still, a sermon series about mental health.

    Join us this week as Pastor Kent presents week 2 of our "Now What?" sermon series: Why Hasn't Anything Changed?

  16. 369

    Why Don't I Feel Different?

    Here’s what nobody tells you about Easter Sunday. We show up. We sing the songs. We feel something real — maybe for the first time in a while. Some of us raised our hands. Some of us cried. Some of us heard Jesus calling us back to shore, just like Peter, and we thought, maybe this time it sticks. And then Monday morning hits. The alarm goes off. The coffee’s cold. The kids are fighting. And somewhere between the parking lot and your Tuesday afternoon, the empty tomb starts to feel like a nice idea instead of a life-altering reality. This series is for the Monday after Easter. And the Tuesday. And the rest of your life after that. Join us this week as we kick off a 3-week post-Easter series called: Now What?

  17. 368

    The Morning Everything Changed

    Join us for our 2026 Easter celebration, and the conclusion of our "The Road to Resurrection" series: The Morning Everything Changed.

  18. 367

    More Than a Miracle

    Join us this week as Pastor Mark shares part 2 of our "The Road to Resurrection" series: More Than a Miracle.

  19. 366

    The Road Begins at a Tomb

    The resurrection changes everything. Two thousand years later, it's still changing everything. But we often skip the road that leads to the empty tomb. So for three weeks, we're slowing down. Walking those final two weeks with Jesus. They saw Lazarus walk out of a tomb. Celebrated a miracle. Jesus knew what it was pointing toward. Another tomb. Another impossible Sunday.To understand Easter, we walk this road with Him. Through crowds and betrayal. Through Friday's darkness and Saturday's silence. Because resurrection isn't just what happened to Jesus. It's what happens to us.

    Speak Life

    Join us this week as Pastor Mark presents week 2 of our Next Gen sermon series, titled: Speak Life.

  23. 362

    See Them

    We talk a lot about the next generation—what they're doing wrong, what they're missing, what they need to change. But what if we've been asking the wrong question? What if it's not "What's wrong with them?" but "What are they waiting for from us?"They're not waiting for us to be perfect or have all the answers. They're waiting for something simpler and maybe more difficult. They're waiting to be seen—really seen. To hear words that give life instead of words that tear down. To have adults stand with them when things get hard. And to experience people who will show up, not just once, but again and again.For the next four weeks, we're doing something different. We're going to use the resource, "21 Days of Prayer for the Next Generation," to guide us. But we're not stopping at prayer. We're turning those prayers into real, everyday presence in the lives of young people. Because the next generation isn't the church of tomorrow. They're the church of today.There's this old saying: "The church is always one generation away from extinction." But here's what else is true—we're also always one generation away from revival. What if this is that generation? What if we're the adults they've been waiting for? Let's not make them wait any longer.

    The Four C's That Change Everything

    Join us this week as Pastor Mark presents week 2 of our RESTORE series.

  30. 355

    Fresh Start, Clear Heart

    Here's the thing about fresh starts. We think they're about trying harder. Doing more. Being better. At least until we burn out.But God's restoration? It starts in a completely different place. It begins with the radical truth that your life already matters to Him. That you don't need to earn your worth or prove your value. He's ready to restore you, not because of what you can become, but because of what you already are to Him.This January, we're choosing restoration over resolutions. We're discovering how God transforms lives through intentional daily choices that flow from knowing how much we matter. And how, when we live as our lives matter to God, they begin to matter to the world around us.Because the life that matters isn't the one that's perfect. It's the one that's being restored.

  31. 354

    Better Than We Thought

    Join us this week as Pastor Geoff shares a message about how the gift of Jesus is better than we ever could have imagined!

  32. 353

    The Perfect Gift

  34. 351

    Return To Sender

    Join us this week and Pastor Eric presents message 2 of our Wishlist series: Return to Sender.

  35. 350

    Not What I Ordered

    Here's the thing about wishlists. They're full of what we want. What we think will make us happy. At least for a while.But God's gift that first Christmas? It wasn't on anyone's wishlist. Nobody asked for a baby in a barn. Nobody wanted a Messiah wrapped in rags. Yet two thousand years later, we're still unwrapping this gift. Still discovering that what we needed has become what we want most.This Advent, we're slowing down together. We're looking at the unexpected ways God shows up. And how His gifts are always better than our wishes. Join us this week as we kick off our Advent series for 2025: Wishlist.

  36. 349

    One Sent

    You’re not just the one Jesus found—you’re the one He’s now sending. And you’re not sent alone. He breathes His Spirit into you…to reach your One. Join us today for the conclusion of One Matters: One Sent.

  37. 348

    One Yes

    One “yes” can spark a revival. Whether you’re a priest or a perfume-maker, God has a section of the wall for you. When the people of God say yes—walls rise and hearts change. Join us today for part 5 of One Matters: One Yes.

  38. 347

    One Called

    Jesus called Matthew while he was still in the tax booth. He didn’t wait for him to “clean up.” God’s calling you—and the calling on your One’s life may begin with your invitation. Join us this week for part 4 of One Matters: One Called.

  39. 346

    One Worth Everything

    The widow gives two copper coins—but Jesus says she gave “more than all the others.”  Why? They gave from surplus; she gave from surrender.  Her offering reveals this truth: God values costly obedience over comfortable contribution. Join us this week for part 3 of One Matters: One Worth Everything.

  40. 345

    One Found

    God doesn’t stop searching until the lost are found. And when even one is found, Heaven erupts. If God celebrates one, shouldn’t we? Join us this week for part 2 of One Matters: One Found.

  41. 344

    Who's Your One?

    Have you ever felt like just another face in the crowd? Like your life gets lost in the shuffle? Like you’re unseen, unheard… maybe even unimportant? In a culture that moves fast, measures worth in likes and followers, and forgets people who don’t make noise— it’s easy to wonder: “Do I even matter?” But here’s what Jesus says with absolute clarity: Yes. You do. You are not forgotten. Not dismissed. Not random. You are pursued. Chosen. Loved. And guess what? The person you’re tempted to overlook—the coworker, neighbor, barista, classmate— they matter too. This series isn’t just about rediscovering your worth. It’s about recognizing theirs. Because if you were worth the cross, so are they. If you were worth the search, so are they. If you matter to God—then your One Matters to you.Because when you really believe that you matter to God…you’ll start to live like your One Matters, too.

    Name Your Shadow

    All of us fight battles every day that no one else can see. We wrestle with shame, lies, fear, and habits we’ve hidden for years. These shadows don’t fade on their own—they only flee when we bring them into the light of Christ. In this series, we’ll name our shadows, face them with truth, and live as people of the light. Join us today for part 1 of Shadows.

  48. 337

    Hungry for More

    We’re all hungry for something. Food when we’re bored. Netflix when we’re restless. Our phones when we’re anxious. But what if that hunger could lead us to something deeper? What if getting physically hungry could make us spiritually desperate for God? Join us today as Pastor Mark explores the power of prayer and fasting in a message called "Hungry for More."

  49. 336

    Life Together

    Join us today as Pastor Chris leads us through part 2 of our series: The Jesus Way.

  50. 335

    The Invitation

    As we consider what it means to be a disciple and to disciple others, and in what context we do it, why not look at the original design? Jesus trained his disciples to multiply - sending them out with purpose and power. This was the mission. He also did this in the context of a small group, living life together, holding each other accountable to stay on mission. Join us as pastor Chris kicks off a 2-part sermon series called "The Jesus Way."
