Overflow - WholeLife’s Theme for 2025 When we arise, follow Jesus, and connect with Jesus and our community, it creates overflow. The blessings that we are experiencing begin blessing all those we come in contact with, and soon, we are part of a community that overflows into the world around them.

Origins: The Origin Story We conclude our Origin Series this Sabbath with "The Origin Story." Ken will make a case for which Gospel (Matthew, Mark, Luke, or John) has the best Jesus' origin story and why it's the best. Be at WholeLife this Sabbath to be reminded of how much God loves us and how Christmas is just one of the reminders of that love. Let us know your thoughts by reaching out and joini...

Origins: Peace The Cambridge Dictionary defines Peace as "freedom from war and violence, especially when people live and work together happily without disagreements...." If this is the definition, is it possible to have peace in this world? The Christmas story suggests the answer is yes. This week at WholeLife's annual Christmas Celebration that includes our choirs, band, and orchestra we'll celeb...

Origins: Parents You don't get to pick your parents...unless you are Jesus. As we continue our Christmas series, Origins, we'll be looking at Jesus' parents, Mary and Joseph. Were they perfect? What can we learn from them? Discover the answers for yourself this week right here on This Is WholeLife. Let us know your thoughts by reaching out and joining the conversation with your questions and comme...

Origins: Bad Apples on the Family Tree Our origin stories don't really start with us. They begin with the people who came before us. In some cases, they gave us their DNA. In other cases, they provided the nurture that would influence us eventually. Jesus' genealogy in Matthew 1 and Luke 3 is often brushed over quickly or completely ignored, but it is an important part of the origin story. Let us...

Dominion: The Den As we conclude our series on the first six chapters of Daniel we will reflect on the purpose of these stories. Daniel 6 is a beautiful conclusion to the story of Daniel. It allows us to think about what this story and the preceding five stories are really trying to tell us. Let us know your thoughts by reaching out and joining the conversation with your questions and comments usi...

Dominion: The Hand In Daniel 5, we are introduced to a new ruler of Babylon who literally sees the writing on the wall. Just because he sees the writing on the wall doesn't mean he understands it. As we dig into this chapter of Daniel, we'll consider what a party in 539 BC can teach us about following and trusting God in the 21st century. Let us know your thoughts by reaching out and joining the c...

Dominion: The Tree In Daniel 4, Nebuchadnezzar has another dream that bothers him. Daniel again reveals the meaning of the dream. Nebuchadnezzar again is impressed but later goes in a different direction. Is Nebuchadnezzar ever going to learn? Find out as we unpack not just the lesson Nebuchadnezzar needed to learn but some important things we can learn as well. Let us know your thoughts by reachi...

Dominion: The Fire The Book of Daniel is about dominion and chapter 3 is about what dominion you worship. Nebuchadnezzar rejects Daniel's interpretation of his dream in the 2nd chapter of Daniel. Instead of a statue made of many metals, he creates a vision of his own and compels others to worship it. Today, we may not be asked to physically bow to 90-foot golden images, but we are constantly being...

Dominion: The Dream In the book of Daniel, chapter 2, King Nebuchadnezzar has a dream. Is it possible that we miss the main point of this dream, like Nebuchadnezzar? This week, we'll see what God really wants us to take away from this story and this dream. Let us know your thoughts by reaching out and joining the conversation with your questions and comments using the information below: Text/Voice...

Dominion: The Plan If we were going to condense the Book of Daniel down to one word, the word would be dominion. It is about who controls the events of this world and who is sovereign in your life. Within Christianity many would claim that God has dominion in their life, but what is the purpose of that dominion? How do we react when events in our life don't go as we think they should? This week we...

Great Question! How does AI Fit Into Our Worldview as Christians? - Ken Wetmore Artificial Intelligence (AI) is being used in over 77% (Source: Authority Hacker ) of devices. While it has been used since the 1980s, most Americans are only now beginning to understand how much of their life is impacted by AI. Many people have very real concerns about the implications of AI. This Sabbath we will grap...

Rest - Ken Wetmore Rest is not easy to come by in today's world. Many are running on empty. What we need is rest(oration).

Get to Work: Leading or Following - Ken Wetmore Not many parents say to their child, "I hope you grow up to be a follower." Generally, we aspire for our children to be a leader. So, is it better to be a leader? What are the differences and what should we think about as Christians in the workplace when it comes to being a follower and being a leader? We'll unpack that together during this sermon. L...

Get to Work: Finding Motivation - Ken Wetmore Working isn't always fun. What happens when we lose (or never had) the motivation to do a job? Even Bible characters found this a challenge. In this week's message, we will look at how to find motivation to work when you don't have it naturally. Let us know your thoughts by reaching out and joining the conversation with your questions and comments usin...

Get to Work: Work As Worship - Ken Wetmore Now that we've talked about play, it's time to get to work. Is work supposed to be a drudgery, or is it supposed to be fun? Is work separate from my spiritual life? These are some of the questions will answer as we begin our series "Get to Work" and talk about how work is an act of worship for followers of Jesus. Let us know your thoughts by reaching out...

The Family That Travels Together - Ken Wetmore Travel has many benefits. It can expand our knowledge, force us to be creative and problem-solve, and help us appreciate home. Christians have known that travel as spreading the Gospel was Jesus' last command. Could it be that travel as play is also Jesus' wish for us?
