Advent begins in the tension of love and lament, inviting us to tell the truth about our hurting world while holding onto hope that refuses to let go. As we wait for the Light who shines in the darkness, our very waiting becomes a witness that love will have the last word.

Shabach—the loud, fearless shout of praise that rises from a people who know God has already won. Even before the walls fall, we lift our voices together, declaring that God’s faithfulness, not our obstacles, is the true story.

In this message inspired by the book Holy Roar by Chris Tomlin and Darren Whitehead, we explore Barak and Tehillah—praise that begins in humble trust and rises into the unique song only your soul can sing. Discover how worship becomes alive and transformative as God inhabits the praise of His people.

Cheerful giving begins with gratitude. When we recognize all that God has done, is doing, and has promised to do, our giving, of time, talent, and treasure, becomes an expression of joy and faith.

Explore faith-filled forms of praise: Zamar and Towdah - worshiping God through song and surrendering even in the hard places. Discover how true worship isn’t about performance but participation, tuning our hearts to heaven’s harmony and trusting God before the blessing comes.

Rediscover the power and purpose of praise. Learn how authentic praise, through words, actions, and posture, draws us closer to God and becomes a witness to His goodness.

The hiding place isn’t a place of shame—it’s where grace finds us and transforms us. From Psalm 32, we’re reminded that God doesn’t guide us through force but through relationship, shaping us with His loving eye. In Christ, we are found, forgiven, and formed into people of joy who follow His Spirit and share His song of deliverance with the world.

We often play hide and seek with God; trying to cover up, perform, or prove ourselves. But the one we once hid from now invites us to hide in Him, where grace, forgiveness, and true freedom begin.

We all play games that keep us from the life God intends for us. Psalm 32 helps us discover that true blessing and freedom aren’t found in perfection, but in the grace and forgiveness that come from God.

In the final message of our We Believe series, we turn to the Holy Spirit—the One who reminds us the story isn’t over but continues in us. God’s Spirit unites us as the church (John 17:20–23), drawing us deeper into relationship and service. This message includes commissioning those who serve in our church and community .
