As we continue to follow the story of Joseph in Genesis 37, we find his next steps land him in a pit.  None of us choose the pit.  We avoid it.  The pits we see in life are dark, lonely, and scary places to be.  But those aren't the only things that the pit can be.  In today's message we will look at what else the pit can be for us.

It's a new year! For 2021, we need to a fresh dose of hope, confidence and courage.  2020 seemed to take it from some of us, but we can get it back!  As we start this year, we need to remember that God is with us.  And because He is, that fact will hopefully help us all to take a deep breath and hope again, to dream again and to believe that God has something good in store for all us.  In this message, we will look at how God being with us does for us as we start this new year.

As we spend time reflecting on 2020, most of us would say that we were more excited about 2020 in January than we are right now.  This year, many of us have went through so many things that our passion, excitement and enthusiasm has been lost or is less than what it used to be.  The good news is that we don't have to end the year on a down note.  If we have lost some passion and enthusiasm, then we can get it back!  In today's message we will learn just how we can get our passion and enthusiasm back.

The first Christmas changed everything!  God came to earth as a baby.  Jesus was born into our world to save us all.  In coming to earth, He changed how we experienced God.  God was no longer far away, but he is here with us.  In this message we will look at Mary's encounter with Gabriel to see how we can respond when God tells us He is about to do things that seem impossible.

Self confidence is a trick thing.  It seems like a bad decision, a bad day, social media or a conversation with the wrong person can chip away at it.  to stay positive, we need to build a different kind of confidence, one that relies on someone that can always be counted on.   In this message, Pastor Alex will give us 3 truths to build God confidence.

Ever watch the videos of cats chasing laser dots?  They are pretty funny.  The cats will chase them all over!  It's easy to laugh at how distracted the cats are by the laser, but the poison of offense does the same thing to us.  Not only does it affect our heart and those around us, but it can also make us lose sight of what is most important to us.  Today's message focuses on 3 things we shouldn't do when the poison of offense is poured in front of us.

Being offended is something that we cannot avoid in life, but we can avoid living offended.  We can make the choice and God  can make the change.  In this message, we will look at how to overcome offenses from unfulfilled expectations.

During this series we have been reminded that people matter to God.  We have seen the value of one person, we have witnessed how God restores people back into his family and this week we will walk through a story that shows us how Jesus releases people with faith into their purpose.
