Stepping into new ground means moving forward even when we can't see what's ahead. In Joshua 3, the Israelites had to step into the Jordan before God made a way. When the path is uncertain, keep your eyes focused on Christ and trust the One who is leading you. Faith means taking the next step, knowing God will make a way.

Following God into new ground can feel uncertain when we can't see what's ahead. But Joshua 2 reminds us that we never step into a new place alone–God is already there, already working, and already preparing the way. What feels like new ground to us is not new ground to God. Even when our past makes us question what's possible, God is still writing our story and inviting us to trust Him with what comes next.

Moving into new ground requires faith, courage, and a willingness to trust God when the way forward is unfamiliar. As Joshua steps into a new season of leadership, God reminds him that while circumstances may change, His presence and promises remain the same. We may not know what lies ahead, but we can move forward with confidence when we anchor ourselves to what hasn't changed.

In today's message, Pastor Shane takes us through Psalm 103:1-5 and reminds us to slow down and remember the goodness of God. It's easy to focus on what is going wrong and overlook the many ways God is working, providing, forgiving, and caring for us. This message challenges us to intentionally remember His blessings and praise Him for all the good He has done.

In the final week of our Summer on the Mount series, Pastor Shane explores Matthew 7:24-27 and the importance of building our lives on a strong foundation.

This message challenges us to build our lives on Christ so that when the storms come, our foundation will stand firm.

In week ten of our Summer on the Mount series, Pastor David delivers a powerful message from Matthew 7:21-23, asking the sobering question: If I can know that my future is secure in heaven, then how can I know? Jesus reminds us that genuine faith is not measured by religious activity but by a true relationship with Him that results in faithful obedience. This message challenges us to examine our hearts and find confidence in truly knowing Christ.

In week nine of our Summer on the Mount series, Pastor Shane explores Matthew 7:15-23, where Jesus warns us to discern between genuine faith and outward appearances.

As we examine our hearts, we're challenged to pursue authentic obedience and a faith that reflects the reality of knowing Jesus.

In week eight of our Summer on the Mount series, Pastor Shane explores Matthew 7:13-14, where Jesus challenges us to choose between two roads. While the broad road is easy and popular, it leads to destruction, but the narrow road requires surrender and obedience and leads to life. This message calls us to respond to Jesus' invitation and choose the path that leads to Him.

In week seven of our Summer on the Mount series, Pastor Shane explores Matthew 7:7-11, reminding us that living the Kingdom life begins with confidence in our Heavenly Father. Jesus invites us to ask, seek, and knock, trusting that God hears us, cares for us, and faithfully provides what we need. This message encourages us to depend on God daily, seeking His guidance and strength in every season, knowing that as we rely on Him, He equips us to live the life He has called us to.

In week six of our Summer on the Mount series, Pastor Cade Simmons explores Matthew 7:1-6, where Jesus teaches us how to judge with humility rather than hypocrisy.
