In this message, Pastor Doug kicks off a new series called Love Does, exploring how the powerful promise of Emmanuel—God with us—changes the way we live and love. True love isn't just a feeling; it’s active presence, stepping up to show others that we are with them and for them through both the good times and the bad. Grounded in God’s lavish, ongoing love for us, we are empowered by the Holy Spirit to show up, make a difference, and put love on full display in our everyday lives.

We’ve all got "that one neighbor"—the grumpy guy, the difficult coworker, or the relative who tests our patience. It’s easy to catch ourselves looking for a hall pass: Do I really have to love this person?

In this message, Pastor Ryan dives into Luke 10, where a legal expert tries to negotiate God's command by asking, "And who is my neighbor?" Jesus responds with the story of the Good Samaritan, exposing the gap between what we say we believe and how we actually live.

Unpacking everything from childhood neighborhood drama to a revealing Princeton study on busyness, Pastor Ryan challenges us to stop looking for love’s legal loopholes and start closing the gap between believing in love and actually living it out.

What happens when your family, your life, or your church gets out of alignment? In this message, Pastor Doug dives into 1 John 5 to explore how the Apostle John brought the early church back into agreement on who Jesus is and what it truly looks like to follow Him.

Discover how to align your prayer life with God’s heart, recognize the warning signs of spiritual drift, and hold onto the confident knowledge that you have eternal life in Jesus.

Remember: any step you take towards Jesus is a step in the right direction.
