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.
Are you tired of reading news stories about Christians acting their worst? There seems to be too many examples of those claiming to follow Christ being caustic, divisive, and irrational, which contributes to the Christian faith being dismissed as hypocritical, self-interested, and politically co-opted. What has happened in our society? It seems one short outrageous video or pithy post - whether true or not - can trigger an avalanche of comments on social media. In this 6-week teaching series, take a deep dive with us into what it could look like if Christians lived at their best. How might our world and our communities be different? Join us as we explore what it means to represent the love of Jesus Christ in this new polarized age.
In this teaching series, Job: Wise Words for Tough Times, discover how faithfulness to God during times of suffering can bring about the greatest blessings we can imagine.

Together, we'll learn about God's sovereignty, what faithfulness looks like, and what foundational truths are necessary to weather any storm.
The Spring of 2020 changed life as we always knew it. No longer able to gather in person due to physical distancing, the speed of changes in our virtual engagement with each other accelerated and living outside our comfort zone became the norm. This season stretched us and challenged us to place our faith over our fears.
Our impossible situations are God’s greatest opportunity to reveal His glory. Sometimes it’s hard to believe that God can move in miraculous ways in our day-in and day-out lives because it’s hard to see past our problems. Our seemingly impossible situations can double as God’s greatest opportunity to reveal His glory to us. Let this teaching series be a reminder that no matter how big the problem is, God is bigger still.
The family structure is the cornerstone of society, and when that structure is under attack, the consequences are more far-reaching than we can imagine. Through biblical case studies of families in crisis and families that flourished, we will learn spiritual and practical principles for bringing hope, help and healing to our families so they can be even stronger and more resilient…all to the glory of God!
When we think of the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ, we realize that it did something for us. It brought us out of darkness into the light, it empowered us to be instruments of change and transformation in the lives of others because Jesus did that same thing for us, and it makes eternity with Him available to us. During the Advent season, let us be reminded that we are instruments in His hands and should be prepared for His use!
There is a force—called spiritual kryptonite—that frustrates and fatigues many Christians as they try time and again to live victoriously for Christ. In Killing Kryptonite, we expose the root of kryptonite, explore what gives it strength, and discover God’s prescription to destroy it. We are meant to have a vibrant, powerful faith that impacts the world around us. But first, we have to face off with spiritual kryptonite. This sermon series is not for the faint of heart. But, if you’re ready to embrace a journey of radical transformation, this teaching is for you.
An altar is a place of sacrifice; a place where we lay something down in order to receive something better in exchange. Using the life of Abraham as our case study, this teaching series shows how we lose nothing yet gain everything by living a life of full surrender!
The Book of Psalms, which is generally believed to be the most widely read and the most highly treasured of all the Books in the Old Testament, is a collection of poems, hymns, and prayers that express the religious feelings of Jews throughout the various periods of their national history. The beauty of the Psalms is that they have a special significance for understanding the religious life of ancient Israel; likewise, they can help us gain a deeper understanding of God’s love of and care for us. In the Psalms we find a revelation of the hopes, the joys, the sorrows, the loyalties, the doubts, and the aspirations of the human heart.
The fruit of the Holy Spirit’s presence in our lives is love, joy, peace, and many other Spirit-fueled qualities. But, sometimes the expression of those qualities can be hindered by an outer shell of hurts and hang-ups. Discover how we can get behind that rind to reveal the Spirit-filled people Jesus empowers us to be.
Studying the Book of Revelation and the “end times” can be controversial. Yet, most of us are curious about the future. Throughout the Apocalypse Now series, we unravel the meaning behind the perplexing imagery and metaphorical language and discover God’s message of hope.
