When the prodigal son came home, the Father didn’t just forgive him—He restored him. 

Pastor Gregg Sizemore walks us through Luke 15, where Jesus reveals the Father’s heart toward every lost son and daughter. He covers shame with a robe of righteousness, restores identity with a ring, gives purpose with sandals, and celebrates our return with a feast.

No matter how far you’ve wandered, grace runs toward you. This is the Father’s heart.

What happens when we finally wake up to the reality that life apart from God doesn’t work?

In Luke 15, Jesus tells the story of a son who chased freedom but found famine. Yet in the middle of his mess, something shifts: “when he came to himself.” That’s where conviction begins—when we realize sin over-promised and under-delivered, and the Father’s love is already waiting on the porch.
This week, Pastor Gregg reminds us that repentance isn’t about fixing ourselves; it’s about returning home to a Father who runs toward us with compassion.

What happens when we choose life apart from God? In Luke 15, Jesus tells the story of the prodigal son—a picture of how sin over-promises and under-delivers. 

This week, Pastor Gregg reminds us that what the world calls “freedom” often leads to famine, but the Father’s love is still calling us home.

What does it mean to carry the heart of Jesus? 

This week, Pastor Gregg kicks off our For the One series by sharing the heart of the Shepherd from Luke 15—Jesus leaves the ninety-nine to rescue the one who’s lost. This message calls us back to the mission of God’s people: to move from comfort to calling, from being consumers to contributors, and to join the rescue mission of Jesus to seek and save the lost.

Between planting and reaping is the hardest season—the waiting.

Once the soil is ready, the seed must be planted. Without seed there is no harvest.

As a church, we believe the soil must be prepared before the harvest comes.

This week, Pastor Gregg preaches from Matthew 13 and Hosea 10:12, reminding us that the seed of God’s Word is never the problem—the condition of our hearts is. Whether it’s hardness, shallowness, or distraction, this message calls us to break up the fallow ground, surrender to Jesus, and prepare our lives for the harvest God is bringing.

We’d love to hear from you!

Behind every action is a value—and for us as a church, one of those values is this: We Reach the Next Gen.

This week, Yth Director Caeden preaches from Psalm 145, reminding us that faith that lasts must be modeled through authentic worship, lived-out intimacy with God, and a deep love for His Kingdom. Whether it’s daily surrender, passing down personal testimonies, or living with holy awe of God, this message calls us to wake up, fight compromise, and invest our lives into the next generation who are hungry for truth and purpose.

This week, Pastor Gregg walks through Acts 2:42–47, showing us how the early church had a rhythm of gathering both in the temple (large corporate worship) and in homes (life-on-life discipleship). Whether it’s being shaped by God’s Word, strengthened through prayer and worship, or sent out from community on mission, this message calls us to embrace God’s design for His people: we don’t just attend church, we are the church.

We’d love to hear from you!

Behind every action is a value—and for us as a church, one of those values is this: We Are Generous.

This week, Pastor Gregg unpacks the biblical principle of giving our first and best to God, showing that generosity is not about law but about love, trust, and mission. From Abel’s offering to the early church in Acts, to God giving His own Son as the firstfruits of resurrection, this message reminds us that we are never more like God than when we give.
