In this message from the "One Family" series, Pastor Jeremiah Miller explores how we make an impact as a family of faith.

Pastor Micah Palmatier explores what it means to live out "one love." He unpacks Colossians 3:12-14, revealing that true love is not merely a feeling but a set of active virtues.

In this message, Pastor Jared Schnapf unpacks the powerful biblical metaphor of the church as God's body, where Christ is the head and every believer is a vital member. Drawing from Romans 12, he explains that understanding your place in this divine structure requires "sober judgment"—a humble and accurate self-assessment that recognizes God's grace in assigning each person a unique measure of faith and distinct gifts.

This perspective reveals that you are not just an individual, but an indispensable part of a larger family, designed to contribute to its health and mission. Discover how embracing your specific function and using your spiritual gifts empowers the body to build God's kingdom and make His presence known in the world.

In this message, Pastor Jerry Lingenfelter explores the profound truth that the church is not merely like a family, but is a family.

This foundational understanding reveals how Christ's blood broke down the dividing wall of hostility, uniting us as one new man.

Discover how God's plan for family, from Abraham to the church, compels us to mature as disciples, minister within our households, and multiply the gospel to the nations. What does it mean to be a blood relative in Christ, and how does this identity shape our purpose?
