What if following Jesus means caring deeply about the one who is still missing? In Week 1 of our new series, Come and See, we look at the heart of Jesus for people who are far from God. In Matthew 18, Jesus describes a shepherd who leaves the ninety-nine to search for one lost sheep. It’s a powerful picture of the rescue mission of Jesus and the mission He has now given to us. Every person changed...

What if church was never meant to be about what you get, but about who you’re becoming? It’s easy to approach church with a “feed me” mindset. Did I like the worship? Was the sermon good?

In this message, we look at the difference betwe...

In this message from our Catechism: Back to the Basics series, we explore one of the most important questions every Christian should answer: What is the Bible?

Who is God, really? Many people believe in God, but often the version of God they reject isn't the God revealed in Scripture. Is He distant? Angry? Permissive? A cosmic therapist? Or is He something far greater than our assumptions and expectations? In this message from our Catechism series, we explore one of life's biggest questions: Who is God? Discover why our view of God shapes everything—from...

Pastor Jason shares about the amazing grace the Lord offered him through his life this Easter Sunday! 1 John 4:18 There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love.

Rejection has a way of getting inside our heads… and sometimes, it starts to sound like the truth.
