In a time when the spirit of deception weighs heavily on our world, it’s more important than ever to stand firm in truth. God’s heart for you is to live in clarity and strength, surrounded by people who encourage and keep you grounded. Today, Pastor Josh shows us how we can resist deception by staying focused on Jesus and choosing a life connected to a Christ-centered community. Proverbs 18:1 reminds us that isolation can lead us astray, but together, we find wisdom, accountability, and the courage to walk in truth. Embrace the power of community to live fully in God’s truth, anchored in His love and guided by His Spirit.

Just like a seed that must be buried to grow, our lives are meant to be planted by God. This Sunday, Drew Williams reminded us that being planted often means taking up our cross and letting go of our own desires. It can feel uncomfortable or even painful, as we surrender to what God wants for us. But it’s in this “burial” that we begin to find new life and purpose. This isn’t just a one-time choice; it’s an invitation to embrace a lifelong journey of following Christ and discovering the fruit He intends for us.

This Sunday, Pastor Josh delivered a message that reminds us that a life of following Jesus does not shield us from resistance or pressure. It calls us to embrace unwavering faith as we step into our identities as heirs to the Kingdom of Heaven and boldly confront the fear and darkness around us, proclaiming our devotion to The One. Through the blood of the Lamb, who has triumphed over death and the grave, we are empowered to live as over-comers. Let us live fully devoted to Him, shining our light even in the face of adversity.

The vision of the Christian life is Jesus- He is everything. We were created to reflect His image, to grow into His likeness, and to follow in His footsteps. This Sunday, Pastor Josh's message emphasizes that our lives are not our own- it's not about us. It's about allowing Him to live in us and through us. Through His example, Jesus shows us what is means to truly live: a life fully laid down. We are called to this resurrected life, but first, we must die to ourselves to experience the fullness of true life in Him.

In a world full of distractions, it's easy to lose focus. But Jesus modeled a different way—He always saw the one in front of Him. Missions aren’t just about reaching the multitudes; they’re about refocusing our attention on Jesus and allowing that focus to shape how we see and engage with those around us. Today, we are being called to step into someone’s world, to listen to their story, and offer the life-transforming hope found in Christ. Take a listen as guest speaker, Marcus Liotta, shares his heart with us this Missions Sunday.

Did you know that the power of God can transform an entire city? This Sunday, Pastor Josh delved into Acts 2, emphasizing the vital role of the baptism of the Holy Spirit. When we've received this baptism, transformation occurs from within, leading us to repentance and empowering us to get rid of idols, making space for more of Him. As we allow the Holy Spirit to fill us continually, and as He rests upon us, we will witness true transformation around us.

This Sunday, Drew Williams preached on the significance of water baptism. Just as Jesus demonstrated in His own life, we are invited to embrace the transformative gift of baptism, where we enter one way and emerged renewed. Drew reminds and encourages us that in this powerful declaration of faith, there is mercy, deliverance, destiny, and salvation. Whether you've already been baptized, wish to rededicate your life to the Lord, or are taking this important step for the first time, we remember that Jesus is at the center of it all, allowing us to live in the reality of what He has accomplished for us.
