In "I Am Saved," Pastor Paul Klouse walks us through Ephesians 2:1-10, showing how the Gospel reveals what's wrong, offers a cure, and gives us a new purpose. We were once spiritually dead in our sin, focused only on ourselves and far from God. But because of His great love, God made us alive through Christ — this is a free gift we could never earn. This salvation completely changes our identity and invites us to live as God's masterpiece, stepping into the good works He's already prepared for us - bringing His grace, love, and kindness into the world.

In "I Am Filled," Pastor Dave Gustavsen reminds us that in a world full of distraction and emptiness, true fullness is found only in Christ. Teaching from Ephesians 1:15-23, he shows us that the fullness of Christ is personal, hopeful, powerful, and communal. Whether you feel spiritually full or completely empty today, there's good news: Jesus wants to fill you with everything you need.

Who are you? What shapes your identity? In "I am Chosen," Pastor Dave Gustavsen kicks off a new series on Ephesians by unpacking how God's truth reshapes our identity. Long before the world began, God chose us. Jesus redeemed us with His blood. And the Holy Spirit seals us as His own. True confidence doesn't come from looking inward — it comes from knowing you are deeply loved and chosen by God. Dave Gustavsen | June 15, 2025

In "Lifestyle," Pastor Dave Gustavsen teaches that prayer should be both a scheduled event and a continuous way of life. Following Jesus' example, we must decide to prioritize prayer time, disconnect from distractions, and delight in God's presence. Prayer as a way of life means "praying without ceasing," by maintaining constant communication with God throughout our day. The goal is to develop a natural prayer habit that it becomes like breathing, where we continuously enjoy God's presence and know that He enjoys ours. Dave Gustavsen | June 8, 2025

In "Asking," Pastor Dave Gustavsen shares five principles that should guide us when we pray. God invites us to pray boldly, like kids asking a loving Father. At the same time, we should pray with humility, trusting that God sees what we cannot and knows what is best. When we don't know what to pray, the Holy Spirit helps us. Sometimes God answers quickly, and sometimes He doesn't - but we're encouraged to keep asking, trusting in HIs love and wisdom. Dave Gustavsen | June 1, 2025

How do we move from a “me-first” mindset to a “God-first” life? In "Worship," Pastor Dave Gustavsen unpacks Psalm 100, which shows how gratitude and worship help re-center our hearts on God. When God is in the center, our prayers become deeper, our lives become more aligned with His will. Dave Gustavsen | May 18, 2025

In "Advocate," Pastor Dave Gustavsen explains how Jesus changed our relationship with God, making it possible for us to come to Him as our Father through His sacrifice on the cross. When we pray "in Jesus' name," we're acknowledging that we can approach God not because we've earned it, but because of what Jesus has done for us. This changes our prayers - giving us boldness, freedom to confess our sins, and the confidence to come to God with childlike trust. Dave Gustavsen | May 11, 2025

In "Prayer: A Relationship With God," Pastor Paul Klouse shares that prayer is a relationship with God marked by three things: conversation, realness, and closeness. God speaks to us through nature, Scripture, and especially through Jesus, and He also listens when we speak to Him. We don't have to have it all together when we pray. We can come honestly, with our joys, pain, and questions. Jesus is near, knocking at the door of our hearts, waiting for us to invite Him in and experience prayer as a gift rather than an obligation.
