This Lent, as we journey toward Easter, we invite you to join a teaching series centered on the heart of our Good Shepherd and His deep desire for us to live life, not just without lack, but to overflowing! Together, we’ll uncover what it truly means to see and believe—to hold a faith that transforms our lives.
It was a wooden feeding trough . . . simply a manger, until God in the flesh was placed in it. The manger then became a filled vessel that helped transform the world. This Christmas, be the manger in which God was laid! Join us as we investigate how to be Christ’s vessel in today’s world!
God is generous to US so that we may be generous to others. His generosity isn’t supposed to land and stop on us, it is supposed to flow through us! This series will serve as a reminder that we are not just supposed to get excited about the generosity that we receive, rather, we should be just as excited about the generosity we can give. How are we going to live into God’s generosity in our world? Join us for this series to find out the answer.
This four-week series, based on the book The Unsaved Christian by Dean Inserra, will help Christians cultivate a deeper understanding of cultural Christianity. It will challenge listeners to dig deep into their commitment to Christ, and verify what it means to be a Christian, while also helping believers understand how to witness to cultural Christians.
This series is a challenge against legalism. In the case study that is the focus of this series, Jesus is responding to the Pharisee who is surprised that Jesus did not wash His hands. But Jesus recognizes that washing the hands was a small part of an overall systemic issue of legalism, which is damaging to the community and to God’s people who desperately try to follow the rules and fall into despair when they fall short. This series is about how to find freedom from legalism and flourish in your relationship with Christ.
The vision of our Church is to point people to Christ, and we do this through our 3C mission: Celebrate, Connect, and Care. In this series, we will take a deep dive into these core, anchor values and illustrate how these same principles - when also applied to our everyday lives - can enable each one of us to impact the world for the cause of Christ.
“Junk” is clutter that is not supposed to be in a particular place. At one time or another, we may have carried all manner of junk with us. In this series, we will follow the Children of Israel on their journey and learn what caused them to get off track. We will learn how to clear out the clutter – remove the junk - in our lives so that we can make room to see and hear God in ways we may have never experienced before.
“The last shall be first and the first shall be last." “In order to be rich give everything away." "In order to live you must die to yourself." “Esteem others better than yourself." When you think about it, these may sound “weird." But these are the very principles from Scripture that teach us what is means to have an abundant Christian life. This sermon series will explore some of the things Christians do that may seem “weird," because the “normal” way didn’t work for us. We will journey together through a deeply personal journey that will help take the focus off of ourselves and what we think we need, and point us even the more to Christ and what we know we need from Him.
We know who Jesus is and what He did for us, but do we really *know* Him? This series will tell the story of Jesus and some of the many reasons why He is a big deal. We will find out more on what His actions of long ago mean to us personally in these modern times. This series will see us through creation, His life, His death-burial-resurrection and His return when He comes back to redeem it all! Jesus was and is amazing and HIStory needs to be told again as a reminder to those who know Him and an introduction to those who don’t. Join us for this captivating series!
We all long for our father’s approval. Whether our earthly fathers were the best, the worst, or somewhere in between, they fell short. All fathers do. And whatever our experience was, we’re not alone. No matter how amazing, absent, abusive, or empowering our fathers were, they couldn’t hand down a perfect blessing to us. No father can. Yet the primary way Scripture reveals God to us is as a Father. In this churchwide sermon series, Not Forsaken, based on the book by the same name by Louie Giglio, we will be introduced to the breakthrough possibility that regardless of life’s circumstances, a perfect father-to-child relationship can be ours when we follow God through Jesus Christ.
One of the most common desires of the human heart is to know and be known. We want to be understood, to feel significant, and to feel like we matter. This teaching series explores how true significance is cultivated, and where we go wrong with ourselves and others, using the life of Zacchaeus as our biblical foundation. We are each uniquely significant to Jesus. When that truth is allowed to penetrate who we are, it frees us to see others with the same value favored upon us.
Over 2,000 years ago the world waited in darkness for Emmanuel to arrive in human flesh. Today we wait for Him to return and complete His mission. All worthwhile transformations, including those in our own lives, require a period of waiting, maturing, and surrendering before the fulfillment of God's promises can be revealed. This Advent series journeys through the Scripture revealing the behind-the-scenes preparation taking place in the lives of those who live for God during necessary times of waiting.
God created all of us with and for a purpose. In this series, we'll look at and learn from the life of Samson, and the power of God-given gifts. Samson was given great gifts that he squandered through disobedience. Because of redemption and rebirth available from God, however, Samson's story reveals what can happen when we surrender to our purpose and lean into the opportunities God brings our way.
