God isn't telling you NO right now, maybe He's telling you NOT right now. In week 2 of our Exodus series, Pastor Skip Allen brings the message from Exodus chapters 1 & 2. Where we see that God has already prepared the way for us. That his timing is unmatched and like no other.

Our God is a Promise Keeper, Merciful Savior, Law Giver, Way Maker. As we begin a new series Pastor, Skip Allen starts us off in Exodus where we see the real hero of the story is God. God reveals himself to Moses as the Great I Am.

As we continue in the Better Together series, Pastor Skip Allen takes a look at how we are to exhort one another and how this falls into scripture.

As we start the new year Pastor Kenny Hall takes a look at how we worship better together.

In this sermon Pastor Skip looks at what is in a name. What is in a name? A lot, especially when we talk about knowing God through his names.

As we get further into the Christmas season, Pastor Jeremy Peeler takes a look at the Emmanuel which means "God With Us." In John chapter 14 verse 6 Jesus says "I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me." God is with us through Jesus.

As we start the Christmas Season, Pastor Skip Allen takes a look at the beginning of Luke Chapter 2 where a decree went out from Caesar saying the world should be registered. In this chapter Joseph went up from Galilee, to Judea, to the city of David, which is called Bethlehem to be registered with Mary and while they were there the time came for Her to give birth.

As we close our Rewind series, Pastor Kenny Hall takes a look back at his message from Luke in Hidden Gems.

How has God shaped you? What spiritual gifts, heart, abilities, personality, and experiences has God given you?

As we kick off Rewind, looking back over different series we've been in through the year, Clayton and Sharie King join us to talk through lessons they've learned in their marriage as they look back. Rooted in Romans 12, they take us back to our Seasons series and teach us how to live in relationship amongst internal and external battles.

As we seek to live out our faith through Spiritual Disciplines, we see Jesus model the act of serving throughout His life. In the final week of our Doing and Being series, Pastor Skip Allen teaches from Mark 10 that serving like Jesus must be Countercultural, Intentional, and Sacrificial.

The spiritual disciplines are actions and rhythms of life devoted to being with Christ, being like Christ, for the glory of Christ. In week 1 of our series Doing and Being, Pastor Skip Allen teaches on the discipline of prayer- entering into conversation with God, bringing our worries and fears, our praise and adoration, and laying them at His feet. Become a person of prayer today.

At the end of 1 Chronicles, King David gets a vision to create a temple for God's presence to be with the people.

In it, we see a picture of how we are called to give to help people encounter God's presence.

Our lifelong journey of discipleship is modeled in God's relationship with the nation of Israel. In Exodus 35, God commands Moses to have the people give toward the building of the tabernacle, a place for God's presence to dwell among them.

We are FOR the world. In week 3 of our FOR series, Pastor Jeremy teaches from Ephesians 2:3-14 on how the best way that we can be for the world is to be for God and His glory.

Because God is for all people, we are for all people. Pastor Kenny Hall teaches on the prevalence of racism and prejudice in today's social climate and guides us on how the unifying power of the gospel through the Holy Spirit is the way that the Church can bring justice in a world of prejudice.

So often the church is known by what we're against instead of what we're for. Skip Allen kicks off the first week of our series by teaching that we are for God and His worship because it's what He deserves, it's what He desires, and what we desperately need.

“Christians have dual citizenship. We are citizens of nations of the earth and the kingdom of heaven. Dual citizenship is not equal citizenship. Our allegiance to Christ supersedes our allegiance to a country. This world is not our home. We worship heaven’s king. We obey heaven’s laws. We serve heaven’s agenda. We proclaim heaven’s message. We seek heaven’s reward. To live on earth as citizens of...

Our citizenship is in heaven. As we kick off our first week of Homeland, Pastor Kenny Hall teaching on the revelation, the revealing, of Jesus Christ. Often times the way we think about the last book in the Bible missing the mark of how it was intended, and ultimately it beautifully declares the majesty and power of God and summarizes the whole story into two words: Jesus wins.
