Pastor Rob Ketterling encourages us to proclaim the glory of Jesus. He reminds us that Christ is actively making His glory known to the world.

Pastor Kirk kicks off our Christmas series encouraging us that Jesus is the glory foretold.

Through Jesus, we have been saved.

Pastor Kirk Graham reminded us that God is our Father and that we’re called to equip the next generation to stand firm in truth, grace and faith. He challenged us to fight for our families and raise children who live out the gospel with power, purpose and the armor of God.
