In week four of our series on the Gospel of Mark, Pastor Kevin dives into Mark 1:16–20, a powerful passage where Jesus calls Simon Peter, Andrew, James and John to leave everything behind and follow Him. This moment marks the beginning of their discipleship journey, and reminds us of our own.

Following Jesus is how we truly flourish. Jesus calls us to lead, to step outside of our comfort zones and to take bold, faith-filled risks. In order to follow Him fully, we all have things we need to lay down. So what might that be for you? What’s keeping you from fully following Jesus today?

In week three of our series on the book of Mark, Pastor Kevin shares another story of baptism. In Mark 1:9-11, Jesus was baptized to identify with us. It’s a reminder that He won’t ask us to do something He hasn’t already done. Just as we use baptism to repent, we also use fasting and prayer to deal with our heart issues when we are tempted.

In week two of our series on the book of Mark, Pastor Kevin shares the story of John the Baptist on this Baptism Sunday. In Mark 1:4-8, John encourages others to get baptized so they can get ready for Jesus. It’s one way Christians can repent and show their obedience to the Lord. Baptism also helps us stay grounded in a disoriented world.

In week one of our new series on the book of Mark, Annie F. Downs introduces us to the authors of the Gospels – Matthew, Mark, Luke and John.

Join us as we start our journey through The Gospel of Mark!

Life, in many ways, is lived between two grips: a newborn grasping their parent’s finger and our final moments reaching for the hand of a loved one. What if the scars, the wrinkles, the memories of your hands are telling a bigger story than you realised? And what do ancient prophecies written hundreds of years before the cross have to do with your story today?

This Easter, Kevin Queen takes us on a journey through the most powerful image you might be overlooking… your hands.

This is an invitation to reflect, to believe, and maybe even to take the leap of faith you’ve been avoiding. If you’ve ever felt like life is slipping through your fingers, maybe you’ve been holding on to the wrong thing?

Could it be that the hope you’ve been looking for is already reaching for you?

In the final week of our “On Map On Mission” series, Pastor Kevin teaches how Jesus’ Triumphal Entry in Matthew 21 can actually show us an example of the generosity we are supposed to have in our lives. As we see how Jesus gave the greatest gift of all, it helps us to live with open hands as we trust Him with what He has entrusted us.

In week three of our “On Map on Mission” series, Pastor James shared scripture from Acts 2, where Jesus used Peter and the disciples to bring thousands of people from all walks of life together to follow Him. If we truly believe Anything’s Possible, and our behavior matched our beliefs, imagine the people we could reach for Jesus! How are you living out your faith?

In week two of our “On Map on Mission” series, Pastor Kevin gave us an anecdote to picture the people closest to us in our lives – those who would be sitting in the front row if we were to gather everyone in an auditorium. Our “oikos” refers to the people who God has placed in our lives with whom we have the opportunity to share God’s love. In this message, Pastor Kevin uses Scripture from Luke 8 as a reminder that God has a plan to our lives to significantly impact those around us for the Gospel. How are you living on mission where God has placed you on the map?

In week one of our new “On Map on Mission” series, Pastor Kevin shares scripture from Matthew 28. The Great Commission tells us to make disciples of all nations. Doing that starts with sharing your love for Christ with those around you. Who are the people God placed in your life who could be your mission?

In week three of “Divine Hospitality” guest speaker, David Nasser, taught us the kind of hospitality that Christians are called to share to the world. Divine hospitality means loving the outsider and making space for the stranger, 

The end goal of divine hospitality is to seek and save the lost – David shares stories of people accomplishing the Great Commission through displaying divine hospitality. How can you use divine hospitality to share Christ’s love?
