Genesis 1 teaches us about the creation of the universe. In verses 26-31, we learn that mankind is the pinnacle of that creation. God created man with the special privilege of bearing His image. This fact has massive ramifications for all of life. 

Can you trust God and His Word? We often become doubtful of God's promises in our broken world. Genesis was written to the nation of Israel as they were about to enter the promised land. The purpose of this book is to remind believers that we can trust God and His Word. 

As Christians, we wonder: "Who can fix this broken world? Who is worthy to save us?" Revelation 4-5 answers: Christ is worthy! In this week's message, Pastor Dave challenges us to focus on Christ because He is worthy.

Every era in human history is stained by conflicts. So, where do these issues come from, and how can we solve them? James 4 reveals the relationship between our conflicts and our love for this world and gives us the solution to this problem. 

As this world continues to attack the sanctity of human life, the question is: "How did we get here?" We find the answer in the collapse of the family unit. In this week's sermon, Pastor Dave challenged us from Ephesians 5-6 to become a biblical family. 

Are you different from the world around you? Often our lives don't look any different from this world. We talk, act, and live like everyone else. In Revelation 17-18, John reminds us about the danger of a distracted life. 

The world is one of the most dangerous distractions believers will face. 1 John 2 commands us to not love the world or the things in the world. Sadly, as sinful beings we are reckless in our love. Listen to Pastor Christian's sermon, "Reckless Love."

The modern Christian is distracted by the things of this world. How can we avoid distraction and maintain a focus on eternity? We must lay aside weights and sin and run with endurance. When we focus on Christ, we gain eternal motivation. Hebrews 12:1-3 lays the foundation for the solution to distraction. 

What is Christmas about? It is not about good feelings, holiday cheer, or even serving others. As we see in Galatians 4, Christmas is actually about Good Friday and Easter. Christmas is about the cross. 

What is the meaning of Christmas? It's not the presents, the trees, or even the special times with family. Christmas is about the Son of God coming to earth as a humble baby to save mankind.
