Our life is a story that is being written. There is a place in our story and in our hearts that belongs to a Hero. We all desire a Hero to come along and help create the future our soul longs for.

As Jesus declares he is the Messiah, the future they longed for is now pos...

The human story has been shaped by human reasoning, the reasoning of God and the reasoning of something mythical. In Ecclesiastes 3:11 it reads "God has placed eternity in our hearts...". The human soul longs for meaning and definition and we spend our lives in search for the answers to our existence. In today's culture we are inclined to define self from within ourselves. Jesus entered into the h...

Every human longs to be fully alive. Pastor Eric shares his raw and personal story of his emotional health journey. In today's culture we are told "you are your emotions" and "you are defined by your emotions". Pastor Eric teaches we are designed to feel deeply, it is what makes us human.

The Future is created by those who choose courage or fear. We must realize this is a deliberate choice. Pastor Eric continues to unpack the idea that we are born for a future we don't know exists. This week we dive into the story of Elijah and the moment where his future was on the other side of confronting his deepest fears. Let's be a people who create a future with courage in a time where fear...

This is week one of a series titled "FUTURE READY".
