Devoted - Week 1 - Proclamation and Invitation

04.05.2023
Palm Sunday 2023 - The Coming King

We Would See Jesus - Week 7 - Seeing Jesus as the Way

02.07.2023

12.20.2022
Christmas According to Matthew
For Matthew the Christmas story wasn't just about what God was doing, but how He was doing it. A focus on the works of God points us to the "what," while a focus on the "how" demonstrates the ways of...

Fighting for relationship is a core value of our community. It means a couple of things: First, we must fight to be in relationship with others given the fast-paced world in which we live. Second, we must fight to maintain...
08.24.2022
Do Not Judge
Hypocrite. It's a strong word. One that Jesus typically reserved for the religious elite of His day. But today He directs it at us. He calls us out. And that should get our attention! Thankfully, Jesus not only diagnoses our...
