Psalm 23 Do you believe that you have everything you could possibly need in Jesus Christ?

2 Samuel 1:1-16 The not-so-obvious ways your flesh seeks to destroy you.

Mark 7:1-13 The Pharisees of Jesus’ day attempted to substitute God’s commandments for their own. As we serve in ministry, do we fall into the same trap?

Acts 20:25-38 As Paul closes his farewell to the church in Ephesus, he charges them how to take ownership of the ministry he is entrusting them with. As he describes this investment, he describes what it means to practically shepherd the flock of God. As a ministry of growing leaders, are we owning our responsibility to invest in God’s people?

Acts 20:22-27 In Paul’s farewell to the church in Ephesus, he begins to share with them his decision to go to Jerusalem knowing that trouble probably awaits him there. How does a Christian come to a place where they are willing to take steps of faith even if they hold risk? Watch and learn as Paul “counts the cost” of ministry.

Acts 20:13-21 Paul says farewell to the church leaders in Ephesus. As he does, he reminds them that his life is an “open book”, transparent and blameless. This week we consider our own lives, are we open to inspection? If so, what will people find when they consider our lives and ministry?

Acts 20:13-21 Paul says farewell to the church leaders in Ephesus. As he does, he reminds them that his life is an “open book”, transparent and blameless. This week we consider our own lives, are we open to inspection? If so, what will people find when they consider our lives and ministry?

Acts 20:1-12 Paul was a pioneer with the mission of God on his mind. But what made Paul and that early church unique, is that they knew that God’s mission was about people. In Acts 20 we see Paul and the church care for and love one another in a way that is worth emulating.

Acts 19:8-41 Paul and his team are having a huge impact on the city of Ephesus, but that doesn’t go unnoticed by the enemy. Local tradesmen begin to see the potential impact Christianity might have on their income and decide to incite a riot in the streets. Today we ask questions about what makes our faith dangerous. We also consider what it means to keep our attention on the gospel alone without...

Luke 24:13-35 This Easter, we seek to understand why Jesus had to die, why he resurrected, and what it means to know the resurrected Jesus personally.

Hear how God used the Spring Retreat in the lives of our growing leaders.

In the final session of Spring Retreat, Pastor Dan Renau shares his experiences as a church planner and challenges us to seek unity.

In the second session of Spring Retreat 2021, we see the priorities of Christians who desire to be used of God. What are the things we need to take seriously if we want to reach the next generation?

In the first session of Spring Retreat 2021, we see the pitfalls and compromises that cause churches to fail to execute the Great Commission, or even to close their doors for good. Will we reach the next generation?

Acts 19:8-20 Paul returns to Ephesus to contribute to the work that others had been doing. His ministry abounds and God uses him mightily! In today’s sermon, we look at three character qualities of an authentic faith: a change in our communication, a determined devotion, and a distinct power.

Acts 19:1-7 On Paul’s return journey to Ephesus, he bumps into a group of twelve Jewish men who claim to be disciples. But upon further investigation, Paul discovers these men did not know Christ. Today we learn some very important truths about salvation, baptism, and the Holy Spirit. We also learn to be investigators, willing to ask hard questions of ourselves and others - learning to let the Bib...

Acts 18:24-28 As we turn our attention back to the mission in Ephesus, we meet a man named Apollos. Aquila and Priscilla discover that Apollos is an incredibly gifted man with an incomplete gospel - he needs a relationship with Christ! Perhaps the best thing about Apollos though, is that despite his giftedness and intelligence, he was teachable. Today we ask "What does it mean to be teachable?”

Deuteronomy 18:1-2 Guest speaker Taylor Lyon walks us through what it means to be a follower of Christ. God has made everyone for a purpose and everyone has a specific place in God’s ministry.

2 Timothy 2:1-4 From this study of 2 Timothy 2:1-4, we look at some of the details that Paul wanted Timothy to be reminded of regarding the preservation of the ministry and biblical discipleship.

Acts 18:18-23 What we see in this leg of Paul’s journey is one of the hardest and most complicated aspects of doing ministry, making friends then having to say farewell to those we love, those we have given our lives to. We learn in this part of his missionary journey the value of old friends and new friends alike. We will learn some principles to help us see these relationships, with all their em...

Acts 18:9-17 In Acts 18, in the midst of a turbulent missionary journey to Corinth, Jesus comes to Paul in a night vision. Jesus’ words to Paul in this passage awake us to the promises God gives to those who preach the gospel. Do you fear sharing the truth of Christ to the lost? Let Jesus himself challenge those notions. We also see Paul face rejection from the Jews. We learn a perspective on reje...

Acts 18:5-8 In Acts 18 we find Paul preaching in the synagogue of Corinth, reasoning with the unbelievers, when his friends show up and provide him with refreshment he needs to double-down in the work. Today we spend talking about what it means to be a good friend, someone who refreshes others. We also see Paul face rejection from the Jews. We learn a perspective on rejection that is specific to e...

Ezra 8-10:1-19 Guest speaker Seth Harper walks us through what it means to divorce yourself from the world. We take a look at the example of Israel and how their disobedience to God’s commands led them to a place of bondage. Through God’s grace and repentance, we see the people of God able to come back to their first and only true King.

Acts 18:1-4 In Acts 18 Paul makes friends some new friends, Aquila and Priscilla. While in Corinth he lives with them, works with them and spends all of his free time preaching in the synagogue. In this passage we learn several really important principles about how to integrate and balance marriage, friendship, vocation and ministry.
