Our Father provides all that we need as we look to Him in grateful dependence.

Matthew 6:11 reminds us that God is the source of every good thing we need—physically and spiritually. Jesus teaches us to pray not just for ourselves, but for one another, recognizing our shared dependence on the Father. In this episode, we explore how this simple request draws us into daily trust, deliberate community, and deep contentment in God’s faithful provision.

Prayer isn’t just about asking — it’s about aligning. In this message, we explore what it means to seek God’s will over our own. Drawing from Matthew 6:10, we’re reminded that true prayer begins with surrender: “Thy will be done.” Learn how to pray not for what you want, but for what He desires.

Jesus begins the Lord’s Prayer by grounding us in who we’re speaking to: “Our Father in heaven, hallowed be Your name.”

This message reminds us that God is the holy and loving center of prayer—and that through Jesus, we’re invited to call Him Father and come into His presence with confidence.

In Matthew 6:5–15, Jesus doesn't just teach how to pray—He teaches why. He invites us away from performance and into intimacy, showing us that real prayer is not about being seen by others but about being known by the Father. This message unpacks the Lord’s Prayer as a model for simple, sincere, and powerful communion with God.

In Exodus 33, Moses makes a bold declaration: “If Your Presence does not go with us, do not send us up from here.” This isn’t just about guidance—it’s about communion. In a world that often prioritizes progress over presence, this passage calls us back to the heart of it all: being with God. Join us as we dive into what it means to hunger for His presence more than His promises.

In 1 Corinthians 4, Paul paints a clear and challenging portrait of what it means to be a true servant of Christ. In this message, Dr. Tony Wolfe explores God's definition of faithful leadership—not marked by status or applause, but by humility, stewardship, and unwavering allegiance to Christ. Discover how this divine blueprint reshapes our view of pastoral ministry and challenges us all to live with gospel-centered integrity.

In Ephesians 3:14-21, Paul prays for spiritual strength and deeper understanding of God's boundless love. Join us, along with guest Charlie Swain, as we explore how embracing God's profound love unleashes spiritual strength and transforms our lives.

Rev. Jim Glatz brings this week's message - What holds us back from sharing the gospel? More often than not, it isn’t a lack of opportunity, but a preoccupation with ourselves. Fear, comfort, insecurity, and distraction blur our vision. This Memorial Day, as we honor those who gave everything, we’re challenged to ask: Are we willing to lay down our comfort to carry the message of hope?
 The mission field isn’t far—it's right where we are. In today’s sermon, we’re reminded just how simple and powerful evangelism can be when we choose faith over fear.

Tony Steffee unpacks 2 Samuel 4 wherein power shifts, loyalties break, and justice takes an unexpected form. Even in betrayal and brokenness, God is at work—quietly redeeming the story. Join us as we reflect on how His purposes unfold, even when the path seems dark and uncertain.

This week, Jon Jamison explores the transformation that happens when we spend real time with God: clarity replaces confusion, sorrow turns to joy, and hearts burn with renewed purpose. Join us as we unpack the power of presence and the life-changing moments that come from walking with Christ.
