This weekend, Pastor Ken walked us through Matthew 6:9-13 and reminded us that prayer isn’t a performance or a last resort—it’s a conversation with God. Using the Lord’s Prayer, he showed how prayer flows from real connection, inviting us to come as we are, honest and unfiltered, to a good Father who loves us. We were encouraged to approach God as sinners saved by grace and as sons and daughters who trust him for daily provision, forgiveness, and strength.
As we conclude our Advent series on Joy, Pastor Mike walks us through Revelation 21, pointing us to the joy of our future in Christ. He reminds us that our hope is not uncertain or temporary, but firmly rooted in God’s promises. Through the vision of a new heaven and a new earth, we’re invited to lift our eyes beyond present struggles and rediscover the deep joy that comes from knowing the end of the story—where God dwells with His people, every tear is wiped away, and joy lasts forever.
As we continue our Advent series on Joy, Pastor Joe walks us through the story of the shepherds in Luke 2, highlighting the joy of sharing Jesus.

This message reminds us that joy begins when we see Jesus clearly, respond in worship, and let his story reshape our own.
As we kick off our Advent series on Joy, Pastor Joe reminds us that Advent is about far more than holiday noise–it’s about the healing Jesus brings into a broken world. Looking at Mary’s song in Luke 1, he explains how something clicked for her between fear and overwhelming joy as she realized who God really is. Mary saw that God is mighty, holy, and merciful–and that truth changed everything for her.
This weekend, Pastor Mike walked us through Psalm 136 and reminded us that real gratitude begins when we shift our focus–looking up to who God is, not just what we have. He showed how the Psalm leads us to look up, look back, and look ahead, anchoring our thankfulness in God’s unchanging character and enduring love.
This weekend, Pastor Jimmy reminded us that Romans 10 gives incredible clarity about who Jesus is and how we can know God. That clarity creates real urgency—because while everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved, many around us still haven’t heard. And that urgency is what drives us to action through church planting, so more people have the opportunity to hear, believe, and call on Jesus.
As we conclude our Rise Up series, Pastor Joe teaches from 1 Peter 5 and reminds us that while believers live in an increasingly hostile world, the greatest battle isn’t just happening around us — it’s happening within us.

As we continue our Rise Up series, Pastor Zach draws on 1 Peter 4:12-19 and reminds us that suffering is an inevitable part of life, but not all suffering is the same—some comes from our own choices, some from others, and some for the sake of our faith. He emphasizes that while suffering itself is not good, God is faithful and works through it for a greater purpose, inviting us to entrust our lives to him even in hardship.
As we continue our Rise Up series, Pastor Larry Osborne unpacks 1 Peter 4:1–11, reminding us to endure suffering with the mindset of Christ.

As we continue our Rise Up series, Pastor Zach teaches from 1 Peter 3:13–22 about finding courage in the face of fear.

This week in our Rise Up series, Pastor Joe unpacks 1 Peter 3:1–12 and the transforming power of true beauty, strength, and community. Real change starts when we let God shape our hearts, love others like Jesus, and live with humility and unity. When we do, our homes, relationships, and even our world begin to look more like him.
As we continue our series, Rise Up, Pastor Zach reminds us that God has a vision—not just for who we are, but for who we can become. Teaching from 1 Peter 2:13–25, he shows that God’s strategy for transformation isn’t power or control, but submission and trust in him, even when life feels unjust. Just as Christ suffered and entrusted himself to God, we’re called to rise up by living differently—honoring others, doing good, and letting our lives point people back to him.
As we continue our new series, Rise Up, Pastor Joe reminds us from 1 Peter 2:4-12 that Jesus is our cornerstone, the solid foundation we lean on through every storm.

As we continue our new series, Rise Up, Pastor Zach shows us from 1 Peter 1:22–2:3 that while our culture loves the idea of love, we often fail to live it out because our love is rooted in pride and insecurity. But through the gospel, we see that God’s love is not given because we are lovable—it is given because he is love. When we receive and share that love, it changes everything about how we live, grow, and treat others.
As we continue our new series, Rise Up, Pastor Joe emphasizes that holiness is not about rules or isolation, but about becoming the best version of ourselves through Christ.

As we kick off our new series, Rise Up, Pastor Zach reminds us that Peter was writing to Christians in a hostile culture—not to shrink back, but to step up in faith. He shared that while life is hard, hope is available through Jesus, and because of that, hopeful living is possible even in difficult times. God begins his encouragement to us not with commands, but with hope, showing us his heart and his power to sustain us.
In this Every Minute Matters refresh, Pastor Zach challenges us to look at life through the lens of God’s kingdom. Every person is chasing a gospel, but only Jesus offers lasting hope.
