Pastor Dave Gustavsen takes us through “The Passover,” where the Israelites experience freedom from slavery and from God’s judgement through the sacrifice of a perfect lamb, and by applying the lamb’s blood to the doorframes of their homes. Just like the Israelites, we also need to be set free. This event points us towards Jesus, the Lamb of God who went to the cross and died for us, so that we can be free.Pastor Dave Gustavsen | March 19, 2023

How do you respond when you are mistreated? In “The Pit,” Pastor Dave Gustavsen shares the well-known story of Joseph, who was mistreated in various ways.

In “The Covering,” Pastor Ted Voltmer teaches about the seriousness of sin in the familiar story of Adam and Eve in the Garden. Whether we admit it or not, this is our story too! God created us to enjoy a relationship with Him, but we choose to disobey Him and do what we want instead. Sin leaves us exposed and separated from God. But, the Good News is that Our Father loves us, and in His grace, He reaches out to cover us and restore our broken relationship. Pastor Ted Voltmer | February 26, 2023

What does it mean to have eternal life? So often, we think of eternal life as something that starts after we die, but the Bible tells us differently - it’s a life that we can experience right here, right now, defined by knowing God. In “The Light of Belief,” Pastor Dave Gustavsen expands on the answer to this question and how it affects the way we live in this world today. February 12, 2023 | Pastor Dave Gustavsen

We often suffer from “identity amnesia,” forgetting who we really are, and looking for our identity in places outside of us:  our hard work, our success, our careers, and even in our roles as spouses or parents.   In “The Light of Sonship,” Pastor Ted Voltmer reminds us that if we have accepted Christ as our Savior, we are a child of God. Seeing yourself as God’s child changes the way you see everything!
