As one year closes and another begins, many of us are left with a familiar question… Now what?
Is this season about making better resolutions, or is God calling us to something far deeper?
In this message, we pause at the turning of the year to examine not just what we want to change, but who we have been becoming. A year is more than dates on a calendar; it is a collection of habits, reactions, priorities, failures, and victories that reveal the true direction of our hearts.
Together, we explore what Scripture says about real transformation. Not surface level self improvement, but a revolution of the heart that only Christ can bring. This is a message about identity, direction, and surrender. About laying down the life we have been building and embracing the life God is forming within us.
As you listen, consider this question:
If someone described you based only on the past year, what would you be known for?
Join us as we wrestle with the weight of “now what” and discover the difference between resolutions that fade and a revolution that lasts.

We are a Bible-Based, Jesus Only small community church located in rural South-East Minnesota. Our building was originally constructed in 1861 and is the oldest protestant church building in continuous use in our county.
Many people have come and gone throughout the generations, but our goal will always remain: To Serve Jesus only, and learn from His Living Word, the Scriptures.
Our small church body are all admittedly sinners, that openly strive to improve our walk daily, but also understand that we are Redeemed by the shed blood of Christ Jesus and declared innocent in God’s eyes due to Grace Alone!
There is no act of baptism, charity or observation of communion that deems us worthy. No amount of following the law of Moses, or the ever-popular observation of legalism in many churches today that will save us. That is us believing in ourselves, rather than what Christ did for us completely.
If you struggle with understanding the concept of salvation or are plagued by false teachings of following traditions rather than Christ alone, please do not hesitate to reach out to us. We would love to help!
Please watch our archive of messages on a variety of topics. Please like and share our content with others that can benefit from what God has inspired our array of speakers to bring to the body.
Most importantly, be sure you are secure in your relationship with God and Christ Jesus. It is so simple. Do not wait. Tomorrow may be too late…
