Who am I trying to impress instead of obeying God?

The First Word of Christmas Is… Courage.”  The word “Advent” meaning “coming” and with the coming of Jesus means there less and less room for fear.  Sometimes fear threatens to overwhelm in loud and quiet ways in our life but what if this season we rediscovered the boldness at the heart of the Christmas story. From Zechariah’s long-held prayers to Mary’s surrender, from Joseph’s quiet obedience to...

In a culture of discontent and self-focus, the Gospel calls us to a life of radical, resilient thanksgiving—a posture that resists cynicism, entitlement, and fear. Gratitude isn’t just a nice attitude—it’s an act of resistance. In a world that’s always wanting more, Jesus calls us to give thanks in every moment. In these two weeks, we’ll explore what it means to live a life of gratitude that trans...

Giving thanks  in all circumstances  is an act of holy rebellion—it refuses to let hardship, scarcity, or bitterness define our story.

Habakkuk prays a poetic, powerful prayer. He remembers how God acted in the past—with power and mercy. Even though there are no crops, no livestock, and no visible blessings, Habakkuk declares: “Yet I will rejoice in the Lord. He gives me strength.” The book ends not with answers, but with trust.

God tells Habakkuk: “Write down the vision—it’s coming. It might seem slow, but it will happen.” God explains that the proud will fall, but the righteous will live by faith. Then, five “woes” are declared against Babylon: Greed, violence, exploitation, idolatry—these will all bring their downfall. God is still in control, even when evil seems to win. Big Idea - God is faithful.  Period.  

Habakkuk looks around and sees nothing but violence, injustice, and corruption. He cries out to God: “Why aren’t You doing anything?” God answers: “I am doing something—you just won’t believe it. I’m sending the Babylonians to bring judgment.” Habakkuk is shocked. “Wait—how can You use a nation even worse than us to carry out justice?” Big Idea - God will stop at nothing to bring about redemption...

What Do You See sermon series. In a world full of uncertainty, it’s easy to lose sight of God’s bigger picture. The prophet Habakkuk asked hard questions—and God responded with a vision. This 4-week series invites us to open our eyes to God’s work, to live by faith, and to give with purpose. Sometimes, spiritual growth begins when we stop looking at what we lack—and start giving toward what God se...

Generosity is the outflow of a transformed life and evidence of holiness in action. This two-week series explores the heart of Christian generosity through a Wesleyan lens. Grounded in grace, formed in community, and fueled by love, we are called to live generous lives—not just with money, but with time, compassion, and service. John Wesley taught that our possessions and abilities are not our own...

This two-week series explores the heart of Christian generosity through a Wesleyan lens. Grounded in grace, formed in community, and fueled by love, we are called to live generous lives—not just with money, but with time, compassion, and service. John Wesley taught that our possessions and abilities are not our own but gifts from God to be used for the good of others and the glory of Christ.

Your story matters. Sharing it glorifies God, encourages others, and reminds you of God’s faithfulness.

Every local church is a witness to God’s ongoing faithfulness—our church’s story is part of God’s unfolding work.

The Methodist movement is a way of following Jesus with heart, head, and hands—rooted in grace and moved to action.
