In this second Sunday of Advent Chad talks about the beginning of the gospel of Mark, and how John the Baptist called people to awareness and action. This might seem like a big deal, but he was reminding them that the deep compassion and comfort of God is the at the very heart of God...and this can only be unlocked by our repentance.

Chad shares his first message in our NEW SANCTUARY! He talks about how we are all wanting a different 2021, but its going to take our willingness to renormal. He shares three movements towards renormaling from Isaiah 64

While we are preparing to move into our new sanctuary we are hearing from key leaders in our church. This week we are hearing from Allan Martin.

This week Dr. Nicole West, our lay leader, shares her testimony of how God's blessing and faithfulness have always been there for her.

This weekend we heard a testimony from Rev. Judy Bazer. Rev. Judy is a retired deacon who is part of our congregation. She shared what it was like to be called into ministry as an adult and how the question "how can he use me" has guided her throughout the years. It is a fantastic word!

Chad finishes up our Marks of a Movement series through the first half of Acts this Sunday. He tells the story of when Saul became Paul and what it means to realize the power of waiting.

Chad starts off the story of Paul from Acts chapter 9. He talks about what Paul's background was like, why zeal was a driving factor and what happened when Jesus changed his zeal.

Chad continues the story of the Phillip the Evangelist from Acts 8 and talks about how movements of Jesus are based off of relationships of trust. Trust between us and God, trust in how we say yes to God, and how we can support others with our trust.

This week we jump into the first part of the story of Phillip in Acts chapter 8. We talk about why the location of his first mission matters and how in order to receive the harvest of Jesus, we need to be willing to practice reconciliation and plow up the hard ground around us.

These last few weeks we have been going through the marks of a movement of eternal consequence. We've been using the book of Acts to have these conversations because it gives us a peek into the original movement of Jesus.

This week Chad shares about graciousness, and how it can either provide a weak life or a fulfilled life.
