In this encouraging message, Pastor Josh Cooke explores the powerful truth that we no longer have to live separated from God. Using the historical context of the Bible, he explains how a thick curtain or "veil" once separated people from God’s holy presence in the temple to protect them from the overwhelming intensity of His glory. However, the moment Jesus died on the cross, that veil was torn fr...

This message explores "supplication" prayer, or how to "build a case" in prayer with persistence and confidence. Using the example of Nehemiah, we learn that effective prayer starts w...

In this encouraging message, we kick off a new series called "Circle Makers". We explore the powerful idea of praying bold, specific prayers and drawing "prayer circles" around our biggest dreams and toughest fears.

Life isn't meant to be lived alone. This message explores why connecting with a small community is vital for your personal growth and well-being.

Coming to church is more than just attending a service; it is about finding a place to belong and grow.
