In Philippians 3:1–11, Paul reminds us that nothing compares to knowing Jesus Christ. Accomplishments, status, and religious credentials can never give us what only Christ can provide. This week, we’ll be challenged to let go of what we once counted as gain and press forward with one great goal: knowing Jesus more.

In Philippians 2:25–30, Paul introduces us to Epaphroditus—a faithful servant who was willing to sacrifice for the sake of Christ and others.

Exodus 19

Guest Speaker - Greg Kelley 

Philippians 2:5–11 Our world tells us that greatness is found by climbing higher, gaining recognition, and making a name for ourselves. Jesus shows us a completely different way. He willingly humbled Himself, took the form of a servant, and became obedient even to death on a cross. Then God highly exalted Him and gave Him the name above every name. This week, we’ll discover that Jesus chose the wa...

What is the one thing that gives your life purpose? In Philippians 1:19–26, the Apostle Paul makes one of the most powerful statements in all of Scripture: "For to me, to live is Christ, and to die is gain."

In Philippians 1:6, Paul reminds us that our confidence is not in ourselves, but in God's faithfulness: "He who began a good work in you will bring it to completion at the day of Jesus Christ." No matter where you are in your walk with Christ, God is still at work in your life—and He always finishes what He starts.  

As Joshua nears the end of his life, he leaves God's people with one final challenge: remain faithful to the Lord who has been faithful to them.

Join us this Sunday as we explore Joshua 23–24 and discover that the greates...

Joshua 14:6-14 Caleb wasn't looking for comfort, he was asking for a mountain to climb. While others saw giants and obstacles, Caleb saw God's promises.

This Sunday, we'll discover what made Caleb different and why God is still looking for men and w...

We continue our “Moving Forward” series in Joshua by looking at one of the most sobering chapters in the book — Joshua 7. After the victory at Jericho came unexpected defeat at Ai, all because of hidden sin in the camp.

Life changes quickly. Seasons shift, leadership changes, and the future can feel uncertain. In Joshua 1, Israel faced a brand-new season after the death of Moses, but God reminded them that while many things change, the most important things never do.

This message will challenge us to examine what we are magnifying in our lives: our obstacles or our God. Join us as we...
