Why does God allow His Church to experience resistance and disruption?  Pastor Jon dives into this question and the book of Daniel in Week 3 of our series, Exile.

What does it mean to resist culture? When Jesus-followers look and love more like Jesus, culture gets transformed; yet, when they look and love more like culture, they become disposable to culture. Listen to this message as Pastor Jon teaches about what it means to resist culture in Week 2 of our series, "Exile"!

Matthew 5: 13 “You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled underfoot."

As members of the Kingdom of God, we find ourselves living in a worldly kingdom. In this series, we want to provide practical guidance and instruction for how to not just survive but thrive in “exile”. How does the church not become of the world while still being in the world? Tune in to Week 1 as Pastor Jon kicks off our new series, "Exile"!

When we fulfill the commitments we’ve made to God and others, we are trusted with so much more.  Listen to this week's message as Pastor Jon shares the vision of So Much More that God has for our church to bring more of heaven to Earth!

God created our souls for purposeful togetherness, and yet our broken world produces countless states of loneliness. Join us for the final week of "Why Do I Feel This Way?" as Pastor Jon approaches the topic of loneliness and how Jesus Christ redeems it!

What do we do when we are betrayed or abandoned by those who we love the most? Jesus himself faced the reality of this pain when his own disciples betrayed him to his ultimate crucifixion. Join us in Week 2 of our series, "Why Do I Feel This Way?" as Tanner Petty talks about how we can suffer like our Savior, even in betrayal.

In our new series, "Why Do I Feel This Way", we will follow the journey of different people in the Bible who walked through heartbreak and disappointment and see how their heart-cries of pain drew them closer to God and led to restoration. 

Join us for Week 1 as we follow the story of Job. Through great trial and tragedy, Job’s faith and trust in God is put through the emotion of unbelief, doubt, anger, and confusion. But through it all, we see that God truly is close to the brokenhearted and ultimately restores everything we’ve lost.

We all have the choice of how we will respond to our story and the life events that come our way. Join us as Special Guest, Davey Blackburn, teaches on the redemption story of Ruth.

In times of cultural descending, God always teaches faithfulness to a willing remnant and then uses them to spark a widespread renewal. Are you a part of the remnant that is willing to be used by God to spark renewal? Listen to Week 3 of our Renewal series to learn more.

Revelation 21: 4 says, "There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away. He who was seated on the throne said, 'I am making everything new!'".

This takes us back to the theme of this series and this entire year of 2021—Renewal. Christ will renew all Creation and the global and historical Church will lead the way for ultimate renewal. Listen as Pastor Jon dives deeper into this topic for Week 3 of our Renewal series.
