  • Called To Be - Week Two/September 17, 2023/Ryan Kramer

    As a follower of Jesus, it means that you have a ministry. God has given you a unique life that only you can live. What do you care about? What does ministry look like for you? There are three simple questions you can ask to find the ministry opportunities around you: who, what, and where. Who are the people God has brought to you and how can you shine the light of Jesus in their lives?

  • Called To Be - Week One - September 10, 2023 - Glenn Barteau
    Our job as followers of Christ is to help people resolve what is causing them to feel distant from God, support them through their struggles, and remind them of what God really thinks of them. The truth is God is at work in situations even before we realize it and He never gives up on them. As part of the “royal priesthood” mentioned in 1 Peter 2:9, our role is to help people, lift them back up to Jesus, and remind them of His love for them.

  • One Another - Week Four - September 3, 2023 - Ryan Kramer
    We may not be facing the same persecutions as the early church that Peter is writing to in 1 Peter 4:8, but we are the living breathing representation of the church to others. We are challenged to love above all else and show hospitality to others without grumbling. In this way, we can open others' hearts to the love of Jesus.

  • One Another -Week 3, August 27, 2023 - Glenn Barteau

    In relationships, there will always be something we don’t like that the other person does. What do you do in those moments? In Ephesians 4:31-32, Paul outlines two different pathways we can find ourselves on when handling these difficult moments in all types of relationships. How do we keep on a path that chooses kindness and forgiveness instead of going down the road of bitterness?

  • One Another - Week Two - August 20, 2023 - Glenn Barteau
    The early church had a vision for what church is supposed to be: accepting and uniting. However, much like our culture, they faced a lot of differing opinions, backgrounds, and experiences. They did have something that united them in purpose, which was intentionally including others. They understood it was their job to create a picture of what it means to be a Christian. If we focus on communicating that people have a place with us - we can create a clear picture of acceptance and belonging too.

  • One Another - Week One - August 13, 2023 - Ryan Kramer
    The phrase “one another” is used 100 times in the New Testament. A lot of those occurrences reference “loving one another,” but other times it is used to communicate the need for unity and humility. Church is a beautiful place where we get to be with one another, but the church is not the building. Jesus living in us is the anchor that units us as we move forward in humility, opening our hearts to the people around us because each of us is the church.

  • Ministry Launch - August 6, 2023 - Glenn Barteau

    Jesus’ way of loving people didn’t leave them behind. Just as lyrics can sound flat without music to accompany them so does the gospel. The gospel isn’t just words. The gospel is lived out in love. Love is the music that makes the gospel relational and real. Loving others was Jesus’ greatest command to us. August is our ministry launch and a reset of our year, how can we intentionally walk with others in love and bring them along with us?

  • Child Dedication Sunday/July 30, 2023/Glenn Barteau

    One of our deeply held values is being a multi-generational church. Participating in child dedication together is one of the ways we can experience that value. We can model three things for the following generations: we put our hope in God, model the way of Jesus, and allow them to make their faith their own.

  • God With - Week Three - July 23, 2023 - Glenn Barteau

    People’s joy has dropped significantly. In fact, it’s the lowest it has been in five decades. How do we counteract this phenomenon? A life with God should be joy-filled, which doesn’t mean we won’t face difficulties, but we see evidence of His joy throughout the Old and New Testaments. If God “rejoices over us with gladness” - shouldn’t a life with Him reflect that? There are three simple ways we can start applying today to tap into the joy that God has with us.

  • God With - Week Two - July 16, 2023 - Seth Kreimeyer-Kelly
    A life with God looks very different than the two other ways we might approach a relationship with Him. The first viewpoint is “life under God,” which originates from a fearful place. The second is “life over God,” which views a relationship with Him as transactional. However, if we take a look at scripture in both the New and Old Testament we see that if we practice trusting God and identifying even the small ways He blesses us, we can move into a “life with Him.”
