Often we mistakenly assume that there is a mythical group of people out in the world that has “figured it out” and “has it all together.” These people don’t really exist, but the myth nonetheless works against us, convincing us that our personal craziness and messiness is more unique than it truly is. We learn in the book of Judges, however, that not only is everyone messy, God almost exclusively works through people with crazy, messy lives. Join us this Sunday for part 2 of our sermon series, “Crazy, Messy People,” where we cover this and more.

In this message, we kick off a new sermon series entitled, “Crazy, Messy People.” This week, we are diving into the book of Judges to discover how God works through the chaos. Just like He used even the messiest situations in Israel's history, God is still sovereign over every crazy mess in our lives today.

In this message, we will continue our 'Things Dad Taught Me' sermon series. We will be diving into timeless wisdom for everyday life regarding speech, because in a world full of noise, learning to use our words well can change everything.

Check out this special Father's Day message from Colin's own dad, Brian McCracken.

Family can be one of the greatest joys in life, and simultaneously, one of the greatest sources of heartache. How could something hold so much potential for both good and ill? More importantly, how can we make sure we are building a family that experiences more of the blessings than the burdens? 

We all need a good advice once in a while. Many of us have turned to parents in search of that wisdom. In our new series, “Things Dad Taught Me,” we will be looking at the book of Proverbs, a collection of wisdom saying handed down from a father to his Son, and learning how that ancient wisdom still holds up for our modern lives today.  

Sometimes life is hard. We go through painful seasons that seem like they will never end. Our weary spirits long for rest. Often times we find strength and encouragement when we look back on God’s past actions and consistency. He has proved faithful before, so we can trust he will be faithful today.  

We are often encouraged to seek out more, achieve more, or to acquire more. Sometimes, though, the pursuit of more leaves us weary. All the while, God offers us something that is enough, and here we find rest.

The hustle and bustle of life often leaves us tired. We need rest. Beyond physical recuperation, though, we require rest for our spirit. Join us this Sunday as we begin a new sermon series called, “Rest/Refresh,” in which we will explore this deep, soulful rest, and how we find it.

Through the Psalms, we find rest and refreshment through worshiping God as these ancient words help align our hearts and minds with Him. Join us this Sunday as we kick off a new sermon series called, “Rest/Refresh”
