God's people were promised the arrival of a "Shepherd King", who would live and walk among us and who offers us peace beyond what we could ever find for ourselves.

Jesus is the King Who has been from the beginning our only hope and rescue in salvation.

As Christians, we are freed up to live generously, giving back to God freely of our time, treasure, and talents.

As Jesus went to the cross for our sin, we are called to take up the cross daily. We must resist our desire for instant gratification and selfishness, and lay down our lives to serve others.

As believers, we are called to deny ourselves, take up our cross, and to follow Jesus. In this sermon, we explore what it means to deny ourselves, going before God with open hands.

As believers, we are called to be "on-mission" as disciples, growing and learning in Him, who make other disciples, sharing the testimony of the heart-change He has madein us.

We are united in Christ as His body to serve in harmony, using our diverse giftedness for His glory.

Spiritually healthy community means that we welcome others in as Christ has welcomed us, walking together through growth and hardship by God's grace.

Christ is the source of true lifelong freedom through His Grace.

God transforms our hearts and leads us to thanksgiving as we worship Him together in regular gatherings.
