If someone were to ask you what the word “father” means to you, your answer may be vastly different than the person next to you. In fact, everyone may have a slightly different view based on your relationship with your father or if you are a father. Our world has deeply impacted our view, but has that somehow impacted our view of our Heavenly Father?

In a special message for Father’s Day, we unpack verses from Psalm 103 to answer the question; how does God care for his children? Listen to our newest message of the series, Looking Up to Our Father, and see that God shows us how a father cares for his children.

Who gets the last word? In so many aspects, we see that the last word comes from a place of authority. In a court case, the jury makes the decision. At work, your boss makes the final decision. In a game, the referee makes the call. At church, we learn that God is the ultimate power and authority over all. So, we may wonder, how does God deal with the forces of evil? Will He get the final verdict?

In Revelation: All Things New, we’ll discover a glorious description of the end of all things and the great kingdom to come. In order for God to renew the world, he must rid the world of what’s ruined it. The forces of evil have wrought tragedy after tragedy after tragedy throughout our history. Listen to our newest message of the series, The End of Evil, and trust that God gets the final word on sin and evil!

Today we continue our series called The Essentials: Why Truth Matters. In this series we are going to seek to lay down and identify the essential truths, the basic doctrines of the Christian faith growing through together one of the oldest affirmed creeds of the Christian church, The Apostles’ Creed.

Looking further into the book of John, we take a hard look at verses that support our belief that “He suffered under Pontius Pilate; was crucified, died, and was buried; he descended to the dead.” Jesus’s death is one of the most famous deaths in history, but do we truly understand the weight of what His death meant?

Join us for our newest message of the series, I Believe in the Sacrifice of Jesus, and may we be  humbled that through His death, Jesus put sin to death.

In recent years, Christianity has faced some of its biggest challenges in the Western world. Churches are in decline. Personal evangelism is a thing of the past. Sin is rampant. Our current “scientific” and secular culture has shown the foolishness of faith, and on and on it goes. So, how can Christians find the motivation necessary to overcome the challenges of our modern culture and continue the mission that God has called us to? By remembering the end of the story!

Today we begin our newest message series! In Revelation: All Things New, we’ll discover a glorious description of the end of all things and the great kingdom to come.

As truth floods our hearts and magnificent images fill our imaginations, it is here that we find motivation for our present challenges. Listen to our first message of the series, Praise Our God, and be encouraged that our Family Mission is to Spread the Praise of God among our Neighbors and the Nations!

Unfortunately when Bible stories become so main stream and casual, we lose the beautiful and power of those moment! Jesus’ death and resurrection is not just a story in a kids book. His victory has dramatic and amazing impact and consequences for all of our lives. But you might wonder what that really means? How does the so-called resurrection from the dead of a man who lived over two-thousand years ago have any impact on my life?

Today we continue our series called The Essentials: Why Truth Matters. In this series we are going to seek to lay down and identify the essential truths, the basic doctrines of the Christian faith growing through together one of the oldest affirmed creeds of the Christian church, The Apostles’ Creed.

We analyze the statement: “On the third day he rose again from the dead; he ascended into heaven, and is seated at the right hand of God the Father. He will come again to judge the living and the dead.” What does Jesus’ victory mean for me? Join us for our newest message of the series, I Believe in the Reign of Jesus Christ, and celebrate that Jesus’ victory impacts everything!

What do you believe about the Holy Spirit? Of the Trinity, the Holy Spirit seems to be the least talked about, most mysterious, and the most misunderstood. There are many significant and unbiblical teachings about the Holy Spirit. So, when we confess that we believe in the Holy Spirit, we must ask, what do we mean by that? What do we believe about the Spirit? How do I know I have the Holy Spirit?

Today we continue our series called The Essentials: Why Truth Matters. In this series we are going to seek to lay down and identify the essential truths, the basic doctrines of the Christian faith growing through together one of the oldest affirmed creeds of the Christian church, The Apostles’ Creed.

Through the book of Acts, we reinforce the creed statement, “I believe in the Holy Spirit”. In scripture, we see reality about the Holy Spirit and his work, and we’re at the same time confronting with our own thinking about who the Spirit is and how he comes into our lives. Join us for our newest message of the series,  I Believe in the Holy Spirit, and see how the Holy Spirit comes as the gift of God, who changes hearts.

What happens after we die? This is one of the biggest mysterious and curiosities spanning all humankind. There is so little knowledge about what happens to us after we die, there is all sorts of cultural intrigue around this question. We all want to know, because we’re all unsure, and we’re all going to die.

Today we conclude our series called The Essentials: Why Truth Matters. In this series we are going to seek to lay down and identify the essential truths, the basic doctrines of the Christian faith growing through together one of the oldest affirmed creeds of the Christian church, The Apostles’ Creed.

As we read 1 Thessalonians, we support the statement “I believe… in the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting. Amen.” The church in Thessalonica was also concerned over this same question; what happens after we die?

Isn’t it interesting how we naturally want mercy and forgiveness for ourselves when we mess up but want swift justice for anyone that harms us? This is the tension that we live in daily and it’s a tension that we navigate unfairly every day. The only person that perfectly balances forgiveness and justice is Jesus.

Today we continue our series called The Essentials: Why Truth Matters. In this series we are going to seek to lay down and identify the essential truths, the basic doctrines of the Christian faith growing through together one of the oldest affirmed creeds of the Christian church, The Apostle's Creed. Through a deeper look into the book of John, we are looking at the truth that we “believe in the forgiveness of sins”. Having our sins forgiven is a foundational need of everyone.

In our text today we are going to see Jesus perfectly balance justice and mercy without promoting sin or condemning sinners. Here, let’s answer the question; What does forgiveness look like? Join us for our newest message of the series, I Believe in the Forgiveness of Sins, and celebrate together that Jesus forgives sins!
