We were never meant to follow Jesus alone. In Friends on Mission, we explore Exodus 17 and discover how God brings victory through shared faith, trusted friendships, and people who help us keep our eyes on Him when the battle gets heavy.

When pressure rises, where does your confidence come from? In this message from Exodus 17, we explore how listening to God, stewarding what He’s entrusted to us, and remembering His faithfulness shapes a confidence that leads to faithful action—even when risk is involved.

This message explores how Jesus remained faithful in His relationships with family and friends—even when He was overlooked, misunderstood, and met with cultural expectations or a lack of honor. Through Luke, Mark, and John, we’re invited to reflect on how pride, expectations, or the desire for approval may compete with simple obedience to God in our closest relationships.

This Christmas Eve message explores John 1:5 and the true meaning of Christ — the Messiah who brings light into the darkness and calls us to receive and share that light.

In this Advent Week 1 message on Hope, Pastor Ken reminds us that the hope we long for isn’t found in circumstances but in the promised Light spoken of in Isaiah. As Israel waited in darkness for a Savior, we learn how to anchor our own waiting in the faithful God who still breaks through with hope today.

Discipline isn’t about punishment—it’s about love that refuses to let us stay the same. In this message, Pastor Ken explores how God’s discipline is an expression of His care, shaping us into who we were created to be. When we understand discipline through the lens of love, obedience becomes an invitation to growth, not a burden to endure.
