Radical Surrender to Jesus means that I must lay down my own agenda for life, surrendering my plans and my dreams to Him. This can be incredibly hard when things don’t go according to plan, but it is in these moments that I must yield my desires to Him and trust in His perfect love and faithfulness.

Nearness with Jesus is worth more than your stuff, your time, your money, and even your family. He’s more valuable than the things you love to do and more precious than your greatest goals. A life of deep surrender to God happens as a result of valuing my relationship with Him more than anything else. This week, we will take a step into greater surrender, as we place a higher value on our relation...

How does the Gospel apply to everyday Christian life?  How does the blood of Jesus and the resurrection from the grave empower us for godly living?  How do we get free from the patterns of sin that have caused heartache, distance, and difficulty in our lives?  This week, we will learn from Pastor David about God's power to surrender, given through the Gospel of Christ.

The Bible often uses analogies to proclaim truth.  Today we will look at how God uses two mountain analogies to help us understand that what happened on the mountain of Jesus is better that what happened on the mountain of Moses.  What are they two mountains but two choices.  Let's be sure to make the right choice as to which covenant we will follow!

Throughout the book of Hebrews Jesus is compared to Old Testament ideas.  In every instance the author says Jesus is a better option.  In today's sermon, taken from passages found in Hebrews 4:14-16 and Hebrews 10:22-23 the author says Jesus is a better High Priest.  He is better because he is called "great".  He is better because he has passed directly through the heavens to t...

God is calling Christ-followers to steward their resources, and part of that stewardship is the act of generosity. Generosity is the only antidote to potential greed and the worship of money, regardless of your income level. The act of generosity is not just for Christian individuals alone, but is also an activity that churches, networks, and denominations can participate in to extend their Kingdo...

Guest speaker Drew Gysi from Life Institute.

Saving is not something that’s talked about much in church. Of course, financial gurus the world over would instruct you to build a sound savings plan in preparation for retirement. But where is the balance between being a wise saver or a simple hoarder? On the other end of the spectrum, we’re told that our generation, and the ones after us, won’t be able to retire because we’ve entirely neglected...

God invites you to a better way of working. A way where you earn money through purposeful work, through serving God, rather than chasing money. Both ways—the relentless chase and the purposeful service—involve work, but the pace is different, the pursuit is different, and ultimately the posture of the heart is different. Both ways result in income, but God’s way doesn’t come at the expense of all...

We are called to evaluate the product of our lives.  Are those we led to Christ now leading others to Christ?  We have made a disciple, when a disciple makes a disciple.

Listen to the message from guest speaker Bob Lenz from October 23, 2022.

Jesus asks us to demonstrate what we hope to see in others.  What example are you showing others as you live to make disciples for Jesus?  People will almost always do what you do rather than do what you say.

Are You Trying to Live without the Holy Spirit? Jesus knows you cannot do the work of ministry in your own power alone. He has given you a helper to get the work done.  Where are you at in your relationship with the Spirit of God?

Following Jesus in disciple making might take more time than you are presently dedicating to your faith walk.  Are you willing to consecrate Jesus as the center and priority of your life?

Who Are You Discipling?  Jesus had a plan to select a few disciples and to pour His life into them.  He knew that to make this work he would have to spend time and associate with them in their everyday life.

You can have all of the armor of God, and still lack the courage to stand firm for him. We'll explore the necessary foundation of the human heart in standing firm against the attacks of the evil one.

Every other part we have been looking at provides a protection for the body as a whole or particular parts of the body. But this is not true of the sword of the Spirit. It is defensive in the sense that it keeps back the enemy as a whole rather than some particular aspect of his attack. . The sword serves a dual purpose, defensive and offensive. It is something whereby we can not on...

Every part of the body has to be protected and covered.  This is true in ordinary warfare and it is equally true in spiritual warfare.  The helmet worm by Roman soldiers was made of leather, but the leather had been strengthened and ornamented with plates of metal to offer protection.  The spiritual application of the helmet is obvious:  the Apostle Paul is drawing attention to...
