Are You Ready for a Divine Interruption?

We often think we need to travel thousands of miles or perform extraordinary feats to find God, but He is most often found in the dull, exhausted moments of our ordinary routines.

We’ve become a society that has forgotten how to be still. Think about it: what’s the first thing you do when you’re standing in a long line or waiting for a friend to arrive? You pull out your phone. Statistics show that half of us grab our devices within 10 seconds of arriving anywhere. We check them 58 times a day. We’ve traded reflection for a "doom loop" of distraction. But what if, by escaping the boredom, we’re actually escaping the very place where God is trying to meet us?

Bored to Life: Finding Space for God

Is your smartphone stealing your ability to hear from God? In this message, Senior Pastor Scot Longyear explores how our constant avoidance of boredom through digital distraction creates a "doom loop" that blocks us from experiencing the Divine. Through the story of Zechariah, we’ll discover how God hides extraordinary encounters within ordinary moments and why the "unclaimed space" of silence is exactly where He does His best work.

Ever felt like you “whiffed it” when God gave you an opening to share your faith? This Sunday, Pastor Scot Longyear explores Jonah 3 to show us that God is the God of the second chance—both for us and for the people we think would never listen. Learn how to take your weak “yes” and your awkward words and watch the Holy Spirit do the impossible.

Ever feel like you’re drowning in debt, a broken relationship, or a season of failure? Pastor Scot Longyear explores how our lowest moments are often God’s greatest provisions, using Jonah’s journey from the belly of a fish to a life of repentance. Join us as we discover why hitting rock bottom might be the solid foundation you need to finally stop running and find the "Amazing Grace" that meets you at your worst.

Have you ever had that nagging feeling that you’re heading in the wrong direction, not just on the road, but in your life? Whether you’re chasing comfort or actively avoiding a difficult call, join us as we dive into the story of Jonah to discover why we run from God and how He uses the storms of life to call us back home.

Pastor Scot reflects on MCC's year long 100 Year Celebration and the concept of setting resolutions as we enter a new year. He expands on three ways we can practically develop new spiritual habits.

Pastor Scot reflects on why each of the Gospel writers used the word joy instead of happiness so frequently in their description of Jesus's birth.

We often spend the Christmas season stressing over whether someone is "worth" a gift or struggling to find something for the person who has it all—but what do you give to Jesus, the King who already owns everything? Drawing from the journey of the Magi, Senior Pastor Scot Longyear explores how we can offer God the few things He doesn't already have: our pursuit, our perseverance, and our heartfelt worship.
