"In this third week of our study on wisdom, Pastor Weaver discusses how we find and keep wisdom. Proverbs 9:10 explains that "the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom." But what is the fear of the Lord? Is it being worried that if you make a mistake, God will strike you down? In this sermon, we leave behind the misconceptions and unpack what it means to fear God."

"How many of you ever done something dumb? Why is it that godly, intelligent people end up doing stupid things? Pastor Weaver addresses these questions and brings us to the answers in the word of God."

"We rarely ever wake up and think "I'm going to do something unwise today," yet we often wake up thinking, "why on earth did I do that yesterday?" It's not a series of wrong decisions that lead us to sin, it's a series of unwise decisions. Joanna Weaver discusses what she believes is "The Best Question Ever" in this weeks sermon. We're convinced asking this one question before we make decisions will lead us in much wiser directions."

"For our second Youth Emphasis Sunday, our youth pastor, John Michael Weaver, discusses the importance of loving God and loving people. Jesus has given us the greatest expression of love by dying on the cross for us. That kind of love is too powerful to be hoarded. Love that strong can't stop when it gets to us, it must continue through us. It comes down to this...Love is not truly love unless it is extended. That is our job as the church: to extend the Love of Christ to a lost and dying world."

"When was the last time you were overwhelmed by the Love of God? Why is it that the greatest act of love ever given is sometimes overlooked? This week, Pastor John Weaver, explores the love of God and his intention for love in our lives. God's love deserves our greatest response. His love was demonstrated in this, while we were still sinners, he died for us. So how should we demonstrate our love?"

"We believe God has great plans for our valley. He is calling us to prepare our hearts through repentance for what He is about to do. In this sermon, Pastor John Weaver explores how we can be prepared to be a part of what God wants to do."

"Christianity is not a spectator sport. We are each called and given gifts meant for the express benefit of the Body of Christ. In this sermon, Pastor John Michael Weaver challenges us to get out of our comfort zones, allow God to use us, and GET IN THE GAME! When we're all on the field, God can do so much more with his Church."

"Ever wondered why geese always seem to fly in that V formation? Or why they seem to honk the whole way? Well, Pastor Weaver shares why geese are a powerful representation of what it means to encourage one another. Christians should be some of the most encouraging people in the world. Unfortunately, that's not always the case. So how do we become more encouraging? Listen in to find out!"

"We often settle for simply knowing ABOUT God. The truth is, God intends for us to have a much deeper relationship with him in which we can actually KNOW HIM. That's what Pastor John Weaver discusses in this Easter message."
