We all want to be more Godly. But it’s hard to know exactly what to do in order to be more Godly. We put our effort into trying many things, but are there specific things that we can place greater emphasis upon? We explore Peter’s letter to find out what those things are.

The world says “Get wealth!” to find your purpose. This pursuit enslaves us to greed. In contrast, the Word says “Get Wisdom!” When we apply it, we not only find a new purpose. In practicing generosity, we take hold of life!

Prayer is foundational for our spiritual lives.  This message focuses on how important it is to have intentional connections with God, giving scriptural principles and practical help.

Both science and theology tell us that our thoughts are powerful. Our brain synapses create neural pathways that make our thoughts more and more powerful, causing mental problems, or if nurtured by God, liberating joy.

How would you like to have the “eyes of your heart” enlightened this year? It’s a weird phrase, but it describes a prayer that all of us would benefit from—-the ability to increasingly view life in the realm that is unseen.

With the new year quickly approaching, many people take the time to set new goals for themselves. Some set goals to be physically healthier, others set goals to learn something new. But what about our spiritual lives? Are there ways we can grow spiritually as we head into the new year? We kick off this sermon series by looking at different rhythms that will help us grow in our spiritual lives.

As we exchange gifts to one another at Christmas, don’t neglect to see the gift that God has for you at this time.

What is the difference between hope and wishful thinking? And how do we access this “hope that doesn’t disappoint”?

Have you ever dreamt about your future? Or may be you already have a vision for your life? In this sermon we will look into the character of Joseph, Jesus' earthly father, and see what we can learn from his life and how he made room for God’s dream!

Make room is a call to open up your heart and your life because of the King. As we enter into the Christmas season, we take a look at how God made a grand announcement of the coming King to lowly shepherds and their beautiful response to the news.
