When you take a step back and think about the story portrayed in scripture, what do we find? The Bible is a story of love: God's love for us and a hope that we will respond with love for Him. In this advent sermon, Pastor Will talks about love, the message of scripture, and how we can respond faithfully to God's love.

Jesus Christ's first coming brought joy to the world. In this advent sermon, Rev. Jerry Weller explains more about what joy is, how Jesus brought joy in his first coming, and how we need joy to fight the spiritual battle that we are in.

What does the total peace (shalom) of God look like? In this sermon, Pastor Will shares a few attributes of the peace of God and then walks through Psalm 37:1-11, showing that God's total peace is fully coming in the future kingdom. In the meantime, we can personally experience God's peace and then share it with others.

In the Bible, to hope does not mean wishful thinking about something that may or may not happen. Hope is about trusting God even when the circumstances look impossible.
