We all walk through seasons that feel dark, overwhelming, or uncertain. In this Christmas message, Pastor Ken explores where we often look for hope and why those places can leave us feeling even more discouraged.

Drawing from Isaiah 9 and the story of Jesus’ birth, we’re reminded that real hope isn’t positive thinking or coping. It’s a person. Jesus steps into our darkness as the light of the world, offering wisdom, strength, care, and peace.

If you’re longing for hope this Christmas, this message is for you.

This week Pastor Phil continues our two-week series Rearranged with a message on generosity shaped by Jesus’ teaching in Matthew 6. He talks about how money can easily become a competing master in our lives, why generosity is not about the amount we have but about what we do with what we have, and how giving frees our hearts from the grip of scarcity and fear.

Pastor Phil also teaches that real generosity is shaped by three things Jesus lays out: it isn’t about being seen, it isn’t a one-time act, and it is always noticed and rewarded by God. He challenges us to adopt a posture of open-handed, consistent generosity—trusting God to provide, investing in what lasts, and living in a way that reflects the hope and kingdom values Jesus calls us to.

This week Pastor Ken starts our new series Rearranged with a message about how the way we handle money often reveals what we value, even more than our words do.

He talks honestly about why money feels so personal, why it can make us uncomfortable, and how our spending, saving, and giving patterns give a window into what matters most to us. Ken also looks at what Jesus teaches about treasure, priorities, and the idea of “storing up” things that actually last.

This week Pastor Paul Malott wraps up our Uncomfortable series by helping us think about something most of us avoid: the legacy we leave behind. Using Daniel 12 as a guide, Paul reminds us that God sees us clearly, knows who belongs to Him, and invites us to live with eternity in mind. Our legacy isn’t about accomplishments, money, or status. It’s about who we become and whether our lives reflect the character of Christ.

In this message, Pastor Ken McIntyre unpacks Daniel’s ancient visions and shows how they point to one unshakable truth: every kingdom in this world will fade, but God’s Kingdom will never fall. Through it all, Ken reminds us that Jesus is coming again — and how we live now matters for eternity.

What do you do when life throws you a curveball? This week Pastor Phil Kniesel unpacks one of the most well-known stories in Scripture, Daniel in the lion’s den.  We look at how discipline, consistency, and trust in God prepare us for life’s hardest moments.

Daniel didn’t wait for a crisis to decide how he would respond, he built habits that grounded his faith long before the trial came. This message reminds us that spiritual habits like prayer and trust aren’t about perfection, but about choosing consistency over time.

Sometimes God doesn’t take away the hard things... but He’s always with us in them.

In this message, Pastor Phil Kniesel shares how the story of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego reminds us that real faith isn’t just believing God can, it’s trusting Him even when He doesn’t.

When life feels heavy and uncertain, you can still find peace and strength in knowing God is in control and walking with you through the fire.

Daniel lived in a world that pushed against his faith—but he stood firm. His story reminds us that when you stand on your convictions, you never stand alone.

This week, Pastor Phil continues our Uncomfortable series by showing how Daniel’s courage and faith can inspire us today. In a culture that pressures us to compromise, we can choose conviction over comfort and trust God with the outcome.

Happy Thanksgiving! 🍂

This weekend, Pastor Phil reminds us that real thankfulness isn’t just about being grateful for the good moments, it’s about trusting God in every circumstance. Whether you’re celebrating something beautiful or walking through something difficult, gratitude can anchor your heart to who God is, not just what’s happening around you.

This week, Pastor Ken launches our brand-new series “Uncomfortable” with a message called “This Place is Getting Weird.”

We all crave comfort, but faith often calls us into the uncomfortable — especially when following Jesus means standing out in a world that doesn’t always align with Him. Looking at the story of Daniel, Pastor Ken explores how we can live with conviction and courage when the values of our culture collide with the values of God’s Kingdom.
