This week, Pastor Chip dives into our "No Place Like Home" series talking about parenting. Teaching from Ephesians, Psalms, 1 Corinthians, and 1 Thessalonians, Pastor Chip talks about the roles and goals of parenting as a follower of Christ. Effective parenting requires constant repair and maintenance through prayer and asking for wisdom from the Holy Spirit.

Welcome to our new series,"No Place Like Home". Throughout this series Pastor Chip will be teaching on the dynamics and design of a Christ centered, Bible based home. Pastor Chip starts the series off by teaching on marriage and how the health of our home comes from prioritizing your relationship with your spouse above your children. Pastor Chip teaches from Ephesians 5 to emphasis this point that we often tend to miss as busy families with children.

Happy Resurrection Day Everyone!

We end our Red Letters/ Encounters with Jesus series taking a look at one of Jesus' disciples, Thomas. Pastor Chip teaches on how encountering Jesus brings real change as Thomas experienced for himself after seeing the resurrected Jesus!

Happy Palm Sunday! Pastor Chip teaches on the encounter the disciples have with Jesus on this very significant day, Palm Sunday. Jesus told the disciples to do something that today and even back then seemed a bit sketchy. But with faith in knowing who Jesus was, they obeyed and didn't let fear stop them from doing God's will. We hope you are encouraged to step out and do the same; to trust God, take courage, and step out and act in faith!

Pastor Chip teaches on a topic that is not heavily talked about today in church. He teaches on the encounter that happened between Jesus and the demon possessed man found in Mark 5. The powers of darkness are real and there is a real spiritual battle happening in our world against evil in the heavenly realms. This encounter makes us aware of what is going on in our world and how Jesus ultimately has all the authority and power to overcome it!

This week in our Red Letters series, Pastor Ken Behrens teaches on the encounter Jesus had at the Pharisees house with a woman who humbled herself enough to come to the feet of Jesus. This woman should not have been in this Pharisees house due to her sinful lifestyle. Yet; she was so overcome by the forgiveness that Jesus has shown her that she risked it all to come and wash His feet with her own tears. When we encounter Jesus, we encounter His forgiveness and peace. Are you holding back from declaring what Jesus has set you free from?

The next encounter with Jesus we take a look at this week, is the encounter Jesus has with the Canaanite woman from Matthew 15:21-28. The Canaanite woman was desperate for Jesus to heal her daughter. Pastor Chip teaches on this encounter and the woman's great faith. What does faith look like in our own lives?

Jesus' encounter with the woman at the well reminds us that no matter how many times we've gotten it wrong, it's never more than Christ can forgive if we simply give Him a chance and trust in Him.

We end our Real God series with "the Faithfulness of God". Pastor Chip starts the message with all of us realizing that we are all dependent upon something in life; and dependance should be upon God. God is 100% faithful to His Word, His promises, His people, and His character because He cannot be otherwise. He will never let you down! Pastor Chip shows us through scripture how God reveals His faithfulness. He continues to passionately teach on 2 Timothy 2:11-13 and how we are to respond to God's faithfulness in our lives!

This week in the Real God series, Pastor Chip talks about the love of God. He passionately shares on how as Christians, we all know that God loves us. But there is a difference between knowing that in your mind and really knowing and experiencing His love in your heart. He urges us to seek that connection between our mind and our hearts and really comprehend the depth of God's love that He lavishly pours out on to us!
