JT Meyer launches our Advent series with the first Christmas song: Mary’s Magnificat. After centuries of silence, God breaks in through a teenage girl from an overlooked town. Her song reveals a God who sees the lowly, lifts the humble, confronts injustice, and keeps His promises.

Advent reminds us that the silence isn’t absence—hope is on the way.

This week Megan continues our series in 1 Timothy by looking at 1 Timothy 3. In this chapter we are encouraged to train ourselves to be ‘godly’. We discuss how we may partner with Christ in the work that he is doing in us.

This week JT Meyer wraps up 1 Timothy. In this passage Paul gives a final charge: remember who you are, flee what harms, and pursue the way of Jesus. This passage invites us to fight—not against people, but to stay rooted in grace, hope, and love. Paul lifts our eyes to the God who is faithful and calls us to guard the good news by living with generosity, integrity, and courage.

This week Nate Berkey looks at 1 Timothy 3. It is a complex passage that builds off of the second chapters teachings on women. This time concerning leadership. We dive deep into the literary and historical context of the passage and ask the key question: Is this passage culturally bound or God’s ultimate design? We conclude that this passage is culturally bound and then explore, in light of that conclusion, what it looks for all people who are called to lead, to lead out of God’s broader narrative in scripture. 

1 Timothy 2 is one of the most misunderstood—and misused—passages in Scripture. In this weeks sermon, JT Meyer offers a different perspective: one that doesn’t silence women, but sees Paul’s words as a call to restore peace, prayer, and shared learning in the church. When read in context, this passage isn’t about control—it’s about healing.

The gospel isn’t something to hide—it’s something to keep alive. This week, JT unpacks Paul’s words to Timothy and reminds us that the gospel isn’t something to hide—it’s something to keep alive. Guarding the gospel means protecting its heart: love, grace, and good news for everyone. We also explore how and why our church has an affirming & fully inclusive posture.

This week we celebrate Elizabeth Hill’s ordination. JT Meyer & Elizabeth share how we all have a calling and that saying yes to that call isn’t a one-time decision but a lifelong rhythm. Elizabeth’s story is a living example of what it looks like when someone lets their calling become a gift to the world. Her yes — like ours — keeps unfolding into something sacred. The question for each of us is simple: What’s the next yes Jesus is inviting you to make?

In this message, JT Meyer closes our Beatitudes series by unpacking what it really means to be “persecuted for righteousness’ sake,”.  We reclaim two misunderstood words: righteousness and persecution. Righteousness isn’t about rigid rule-keeping; it’s about living the way of Jesus — a life marked by love, humility, and justice. And persecution isn’t losing comfort or privilege; it’s the cost of embodying that way in a world that resists it. 

The beatitudes cultural misconceptions, and invites us to live like Jesus did — with love, blessing, and faithfulness — even when it costs us something. 

Jesus calls us to live with both mercy and purity of heart. In this message, JT Meyer explores how mercy flows outward in forgiveness and compassion, while purity is formed inward through wholeness and integrity. Discover the promises Jesus gives to those who live this way: receiving His mercy and seeing God more clearly.

In this weeks message Nate Berkey continues our series on the Beatitudes by looking at Jesus' call to be peacemakers. He discusses the original Hebrew word for peace (Shalom) and how it means so much more. We explore how peacemaking isn't the same as peace keeping and how it applies to us personally and expands to peace globally.
