Rules are a part of life. Some rules are crazy. Some rules are harsh. Regardless, rules are needed to keep order and to know how to best live. As the Ruler of the universe, God created the 10 Commandments as a set of rules to show us how to best live. As Pastor Chuck explains, when we know why we have the rules, it makes a lot more sense. And the rules all start with making the Ruler (God) YOUR ruler.

Christianity gets a bad rap for only being about rules. It's not, though. It's far more than that. The rules are only part of this relationship with God. With that said, Pastor Chuck begins his new sermon series "TEN COMMANDS" by laying out for us what these commands measure and what they are there for in the first place.

As the new year begins, it's never a bad idea to take a step back from your life and ask, "Why am I here? What's my purpose?" In the story of John the Baptist and the life of Jesus, Pastor Alex explains how your purpose is clear and your mission is now.

Raising kids is an honor...and a difficult task. This is primarily because as we teach them to grow, we continue to grow as well. By looking at the one verse in the Bible we have about Jesus growth as a child, Pastor Chuck reminds us that adults still have some growing to do as well.

HATE. It has so many faces and so many expressions and it so easily fills our hearts leaving no room for love. But by looking at the Old Testament story of Jacob and the story of Jesus' birth, Pastor Chuck shows us how we can eliminate hate and let love into our lives.

Songs of joy fill the air around Christmastime, but it doesn't always fill our lives. By looking at the birth of Jesus and an epic story from the Old Testament, Pastor Chuck shares how we can find joy and make room for it in our lives this Christmas.

How do you respond to "suddenly" moments in your life? Plans change. Relationships change. Health changes. Faith is challenged in an instant. Christmas is full of those moments. As By observing the stories of two Josephs from the Bible, Pastor Chuck shares how God has always been present to bring us peace.

The word "hope" gets thrown around a lot at Christmas, yet once December 25 passes, it seems like we missed it altogether or doubt we ever had it in the first place. In the first sermon of our Advent series, "No Room for Christmas," Pastor Chuck explains how to make room for hope--a different kind of hope offered through Jesus--that will last far beyond the Christmas season.

Are you getting mixed messages about whether or not to stay in your marriage? Whether or not you should quit? Try again? Start over? But God's love doesn't quit. Today Pastor Chuck not only explains how to receive that love, but how that kind of love is possible in ALL our families.

As we age, memories can be the first thing to go. When it comes to love, that isn't necessarily a bad thing though. When we hurt, loving like God asks us to love is hard. Pastor Chuck shows us in God's Word how forgetting is just as important as remember when it comes to loving people...especially the people it's tough to love.
