The Christmas Story at its core, is the story of a family entering the story of God. A family embracing their next steps in God’s plan for the sake of the world. Daniel share’s on how entering the story of God is a costly journey but results in the emergence of a generation bringing hope and transformation to the world around them.

This week, Alan shares how Christmas reveals God’s redemptive grace. As we see in Luke 2:13-14, Matthew 1:3-6, and Romans 3:23, God transforms shame into glory and broken lives into beautiful testimonies. Discover the hope, restoration, and redemption found in Jesus—God with us, Immanuel.

This morning, we are reminded of the power of the blood of Christ—a power that establishes a covenant, cleanses, connects, and continues to sustain us through what He has accomplished.

As we come to the table of communion, we do so seeking forgiveness, knowing that if we confess our sins, He is faithful to forgive. We come for wholeness, for through His broken body, we are made whole—both individually and in all things. We come for freedom, rejoicing that Christ has crushed the dominion of sin on our behalf.

We approach the table as children of our Father, confident that He hears us and will answer when we ask in the name of Jesus. We come so that His life may flow in us and through us.

This week, we take our annual Compassion offering.

Through Compassion, we aim for more than quick fixes or feel-good stories—we seek to transform lives. Our vision goes beyond a single moment; it’s about a God-ordained movement of restoration. It’s a movement that rewrites stories, rebuilds lives, and creates lasting change.

When we transform lives, we do more than improve circumstances: we impact families and shape futures. 

Compassion is Unstoppable.

This week, we take another step toward our 2024 Thanksgiving Offering: Unstoppable Compassion. Through 2 Corinthians 4:7-16, we see the agony and ecstasy of Kingdom compassion. Despite the challenges, God’s grace is reaching further, touching more and more, and overflowing in thanksgiving to the glory of God.

James highlights some key stories from this past year, revealing how God’s grace and resurrection power have gone before us, touching both neighborhoods and nations.

Even when we feel hard-pressed or tempted to lose heart, we are called to give our hearts once again—to dig deeper and reach further as we join in God’s unstoppable work of compassion.

This week, we take a step toward our Thanksgiving Offering for 2024: Unstoppable Compassion.

We recognize that choosing compassion is not always easy—it can be demanding, stretching, and costly. Yet, compassion is a courageous choice.

In Genesis 26, despite facing opposition, Isaac redigs the well, going the extra mile to provide a vital resource for the community.

In the same way, our persistent and unwavering commitment to compassion—both as individuals and as a church—will enable us to bring lasting transformation to communities and nations. Compassion is unstoppable.

This morning, Alan leads us in an extended time of communion as we journey through 1 Corinthians 11:23-34.

We are reminded that Communion is more than just a moment in a service or a church tradition. It is a covenant meal, and we are invited to embrace the fullness of this experience—not only in relationship and intimacy but also in identity with Jesus Christ. We are in Him, and He is in us.

This message is for sons and daughters who either have or are looking for a fresh anointing, the anointing of the wild ox resting upon them and who are learning to operate in the power of the kingdom to demolish long-standing dominion of the enemy. Sons and daughters who are unashamed, unapologetic and unafraid.

“God brings them out of Egypt, He is for them like the horns of the wild ox. @ Numbers 23:22   It says God brings them out of captivity, out of confinement, out of the domain of the enemy. He brings them out. The Bible tells us how he does it. He does it with a mighty hand and an outstretched arm dismantling the gods of the Egyptians. He is for them like the horns of the wild ox.

This week, Alan continues to explore the life of Josiah through 2 Chronicles 34. In this passage, we see a prophetic prototype for our time—a generation called to rise with conviction, clarity, and covenant. A generation rising with holy fervor to “burn the bones.”

God is raising up reformers in the midst of darkness, those who are willing to tear down idols, purify worship, and prioritize God’s presence over platforms. This is the day of purifying, holiness, and deep devotion—not founded in anger, but in holy anguish and a longing for God’s presence.

This week, Alan shares a message on the Rising Generation. Drawing from 2 Chronicles 34 and the story of King Josiah, we explore renewal, reverence, and radical devotion.

Discover how God is raising up a new generation, driven by conviction and intimate authority, to bring about reformation and transformation in our world today.
