Welcome to today's episode! We're diving into Joshua 24:15, where Joshua challenges the Israelites to choose whom they will serve. As for him and his household, they choose the Lord. Join us as we explore what it means to make a decisive commitment to serve God wholeheartedly in our lives today.

Today, pastor Chris continues his Joshua series. Here, he relates the wall of Jericho to emotional and spiritual strongholds in our life (Johua 6). As the Israelites defeated Jericho, we too can overcome our strongholds.

In the episode, Pastor Chris emphasizes that to achieve God-sized tasks, we must step into the water with faith, trusting God to handle the rest. This message is inspired by Joshua 3:15-17, where God instructs Joshua to have the priests carry the Ark of the Covenant into the flooded Jordan River.

Today, pastor Chris begins a brief series in Joshua. Joshua is about to lead the people into the promise land where God encourages Joshua to be Strong and Courageous (Joshua 1:1-9). The point: As we face new challenges and transitions, we can rest assured in God's unchanging presence and faithfulness because we are one with the Heavenly Father, the Heavenly Father is one with me.

It's easy to blend American Culture with our faith and not realize that we have replaced God. It's not until the Holy Spirit points it, which leads us to repentance. That's today's message -- recognize and replace our idols with God.

Join Pastor Chris as he walks us through Exodus 32, a time when Moses was summoned by God to the mountain while Aaron allowed the people to build an idol.

Today, we will reflect on Paul’s specific instructions for Christian households. These guidelines emphasize mutual love and respect. So grab your Bible, a cup of coffee, and click to listen.

Today, we focus on the virtues that Paul instructs us to "put on" as God's chosen people. These virtues are essential for nurturing healthy relationships and reflecting Christ in our daily interactions. Let's dive into Colossians 3:12-17 and discover how love and thankfulness are central to our Christian walk. So grab your Bible, a cup of coffee, I’m pastor Chris and let’s get started.

Today, we are diving into Colossians 3:5-11, where Paul urges us to put to death our earthly nature. This passage challenges us to confront and eradicate sinful behaviors and attitudes, allowing the transformative power of Christ to renew our identity.
