Join us as we celebrate the miracle of Christ’s birth, the significance of biblical names and titles, and an invitation to experience what only Jesus can offer. We’ll trace ancient prophecies from Isaiah and the wonder of God dwelling among us. As we reflect on what we long for the most this season, we’ll see that the invitation that Jesus offers still resonates deeply today.

Speaker: Greg Holder

As we prepare for Christmas, we contrast the story of two kings: Jesus and King Herod. The importance of this story traces back to Moses in the Old Testament and the longing for a Messiah to the fulfillment of prophecy in Jesus’ birth in Bethlehem. We explore the resistance to Jesus’ message, the illusion of control in our own lives, and the enduring relevance of Christ’s kingdom.

We begin to prepare our hearts for Christmas by unpacking a story about Mary from Luke 1. Speaker: Greg Holder

Waiting. None of us like it, though it seems to be an important part of human life. Join us as we explore the spiritual significance of waiting and how it connects us to the greater story of God. Advent is a time to pause and remember the deep longing that preceded the arrival of Jesus the Messiah. We'll unpack the history of the Israelites, who waited thousands of years for deliverance, and discover that waiting is not wasted time but a period where character is formed and trust is deepened. Learn how to "wait well" by actively trusting God, staying connected to community, and surrendering your desire to control outcomes in relationships, work, and finances. Finally, discover how to renew your strength and find hope in Jesus, the promised Savior who understands our struggles and remains with us through every delay Speaker: Angela Beise

Instead of relying on self-sufficiency, what if we learned to focus on the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth, who watches over our lives? How would that shape the way we live? This message challenges us to practice generosity and cultivate spiritual health by intentionally working on our memories to recall God's faithfulness. Together, we'll see how trusting in Jesus provides the ultimate hope, and it is He who provides grace, peace, and unshakeable security. Speaker: Greg Holder

Even heroes can experience struggles. We're exploring the story of Elijah, a major prophet in the Old Testament that experienced amazing victories. But he also experienced fear, exhaustion, and burnout. Togther, we'll see how God met him with tenderness, rest, and a gentle whisper. We'll discover how unrealistic expectations, isolation, and “soul fatigue” can distort our view of God and ourselves, and how His presence restores us in the silence. Join us as we confront lies, find courage, and step into a hope-filled moment with the God who never leaves us. Speaker: Greg Holder

Our God is not just "a god," but rather THE God. We explore an ancient story about God showing His supremacy over false idols. Together we'll see how these idols pop up today, whether its success, image, control, or something else. There's good news: God still brings victory to those who seek Him. Speaker: Greg Holder

Have you ever made a mistake and feel like you're just swimming in regret? Does it feel like there's nothing you could do that could make things right again? We're looking at a story about King David, where his mistakes lead not just to regret, but to a national crisis. We see how repentance and costly forgiveness in David's story ultimately point to Jesus. Speaker: Greg Holder & Chris Nation

Legacy. Setbacks. Failures. Promises. When we think about our past and our future, it is easy to get lost on a rollercoaster of wishes, regrets, goals, and hopes. We continue our Peak Experiences series at Mount Nebo, where Moses, after leading the Israelites in the desert for decades, looks at his legacy. There is a complicated mixture of joy and grief that serves as a leadership lesson to us all. Join us as we consider what it looks like to trust God with our entire lives, how to overcome challenges, and how to build a lasting legacy. Speaker: Kimberly MacNeill

God promises us His presence and we shouldn't settle for anything less. Join us as we explore a famous story at the foot of Mount Sinai where the Israelites want God to be present with them, but on their own terms. Even today, we are tempted to squeeze God down to something less than Who He fully is, whether we realize it or not. Especially after spiritual victories, we can create "gods of our own making". Learn how to keep "looking up" to the real, untamable God and avoid settling for a cheap, comfortable god of your own creation.
