Northwest Bible Church

Ever feel like you know what the Bible says but struggle to live it out? This first message in our Colossians series explores how this ancient letter speaks directly to your daily life.

As we begin this verse-by-verse journey, we uncover three key principles that transform faith from theory to practice:

1. Paul gives us profound truths in a simple way

2. Right theology is the basis for right living

3. The centrality of Jesus Christ

When we receive God’s guidance with grace rather than neglect or pride, we discover what church is meant to be—not just a place to attend, but a family where we truly belong and grow together.

When Jesus died, hope died with him—but something happened that changed everything. This Easter message explores the historical reality of the resurrection and how it brings three powerful gifts into our lives today: power over our deepest fears, hope when all seems lost, and peace in our uncertain world. Whether you’re a longtime believer or just exploring faith, discover how this event from history continues to transform lives in the present.

There’s a lot to learn from David’s life. In Scripture, we see his successes and failures. We see a man who chose to follow after God, and we see his sin and the fallout. We see a man who trusted God with the impossible, and we see a man who chose instead to rely on himself. We see his spiritual highs and his rock bottom.

But God, knowing the beginning from the end, called David a man after His own heart. In this series, as we walk through David’s life, we’ll learn from the highs and lows what God wants for us.

Ever feel like you’re frantically searching for solutions instead of seeking God Himself? In this message, we explore David’s cry in Psalm 61 and discover that God doesn’t promise to remove our difficulties—He offers something more valuable: His presence within them. The rock higher than ourselves isn't escape—it’s refuge. What if our breaking points aren’t problems to be solved, but precisely where God’s strength becomes most visible, reshaping us into who we’re meant to become?

Ever had life completely wreck your plans? Through King David’s story—fleeing his throne at age 61 as his own son led a rebellion—we discover what to do when dreams don’t come true.

David made a profound choice in his darkest moment: “Not my will, but yours be done.” The foundation of our faith isn’t in answered prayers or happy endings, but in the unwavering confidence that God remains good even when circumstances aren’t. When we feel forsaken, we're mistaken—broken dreams say nothing about God's presence or faithfulness in our lives.

Ever feel your decision-making clouded by fear or anger? Even David—the giant-slayer himself—panicked when his life was threatened, forgetting God’s faithfulness and making choices he’d regret forever. His journey from courageous warrior to frightened fugitive mirrors our own tendency to take control when life spirals.

This message unpacks why we often run away from God when we need Him most, and how we can break this destructive cycle. Discover in David’s story both a warning and a powerful reminder that when we feel forsaken, we’re actually just mistaken—God remains our refuge even in our panic moments.

Ever feel like you’re facing giants that are just too big to overcome? We all have moments when life’s challenges seem overwhelming. In this first message of our new David series, we explore how a young shepherd boy had the courage to face a 9-foot warrior when an entire army trembled in fear.

David saw what everyone else missed—it wasn’t about physical strength but spiritual clarity. When we place our hope in temporary things (careers, finances, relationships), we’re left terrified when those things falter. But those who place their hope in God see clearly, act confidently, and walk humbly, even when facing impossible odds. What “Goliath” are you facing today, and where have you anchored your hope?

Join us as we journey through the life of this imperfect yet extraordinary man after God’s own heart, discovering timeless wisdom for our modern battles.

This Sunday, we’re excited to welcome Jonathan Autrey, a missionary from the Dominican Republic, as our guest speaker. Jonathan has seen firsthand how God is changing lives through missions, and he’ll be sharing his story—why missions matter, what it means to stand in the gap, and how we can all be part of something bigger than ourselves.
