Drawing on Israel’s demand for a king and Jesus’ humble entry into Jerusalem, Pastor Kory contrasts the kind of kings we want with the King we need. Through the image of two parades—a conquering ruler and a man on a donkey—the sermon shows how God’s people repeatedly chose power, security, and status. Jesus arrives as a different king who saves hearts, not politics, and invites us to examine which voices truly rule our lives.

In the sermon "The Law," Pastor Abby Burg explores how God’s commandments are not just rules, but a call to reflect His character to the world. Drawing parallels between Exodus and Jesus’s Sermon on the Mount, she explains that believers are called to be "salt and light"—living counterculturally to reveal God’s "flavors" and "colors." Abby encourages us to rely on the Holy Spirit to live out this royal priesthood daily.

In this sermon, Pastor Kory explores how everyday habits form “paths” in our lives—often unconsciously—and how God invites us to reshape these pathways through intentional rituals. Using examples from daily life and the Exodus story, he shows how practices like Passover, the Lord’s Supper, baptism, and weekly worship re‑form us over time. The message encourages reflecting on our own rituals and choosing those that lead us toward God’s freedom, grace, and transformation.

Pastor Kory’s message, Going Back to Egypt, reflects on Israel’s struggle to trust God in the wilderness and how we often reach for old, familiar habits when life feels uncertain. Through the Exodus story and Jesus’ time in the wilderness, we’re reminded that God invites us to keep moving forward, even when it’s difficult. This Lenten season, we’re encouraged to notice where we’re tempted to look back and to trust God’s grace for the journey ahead.

Pastor Kory’s sermon introduces Lent as a season designed to form us into Christlike people through rhythms that shape our hearts, not just our minds. Drawing from Scripture and Christian tradition, he explains how practices like fasting, prayer, and almsgiving help us turn from sin and re‑center our lives on God’s grace. Lent reminds us of our dependence on God and leads us toward the hope and renewal celebrated at Easter.

Pastor Kory’s sermon explores how God still speaks today, just as He did to Peter and Cornelius in Acts 10. Through visions, the Holy Spirit’s nudges, circumstances, Scripture, and the wisdom of other believers, God guided them toward unity and understanding. The message invites us to cultivate attentive hearts, trust that God has not gone silent, and courageously respond when He speaks today.

In this sermon, Pastor Kory explores why some prayers feel “pointless,” drawing from the story of Ananias and Saul in Acts 9. When hope feels risky and disappointment familiar, we often stop praying bold prayers. Through Ananias’s surprising obedience, Pastor Kory shows how God works behind the scenes, changes our perspectives, and accomplishes more than we can imagine—even when we least expect it.

In this sermon, Pastor Kory explores the reality of spiritual strongholds and our call to confront them through the authority of Jesus. Drawing from Acts 16, he shows how Paul and Silas faced spiritual, cultural, and institutional forces—and how prayer partnered with God’s power brings real freedom. We are invited to recognize personal and societal strongholds and to pray boldly for Jesus to break what keeps people and communities from experiencing true liberation.

This class dives into what the Bible has to say about immigration, politics, and the government, helping us think about the topic of immigration in a biblically and theologically sound way.

In this sermon, Pastor Abby explores the challenging command to pray for our enemies, using the story of Stephen, the first Christian martyr, as a powerful example. She reflects on Jesus' teachings in Luke 6, urging believers to move beyond mere words and show genuine love through action—even in the face of hostility. Ultimately, Pastor Abby encourages us to trust that with God, radical forgiveness and transformation are possible, even for those we find most difficult to love.
