How is God working in the world today? How can we participate in His work?

It is undeniable that the Church is involved in, and responsible for, many injustices in the world. How can this happen when we claim to follow a good and just God? Why do we hear stories of infighting or even legal battles within churches when Christians are allegedly a family united in Christ? It may be difficult, perhaps even painful, to confront the ugly truth but it is important that we do no...

Join us as we delve into this difficult topic and wrestle with questions about faith and life, guided by Hebrews 4:14-1...

If you or someone...

“Do not be afraid, for I know that you are looking for Jesus, who was crucified. He is not here; he has risen, just as he said."  Just as he said. In Matthew 20:28, Jesus said "In the same way, the Son of Man did not come to be served. He came to serve others and to give his life as a ransom for many people.” 2000 years ago Jesus died but was resurrected as part of God's plan for you and me....

In a time when it seems like there is division everywhere, it can be difficult to wrap our heads around the idea of unity. It seems so far-fetched. As we continue our sermon series on Living Authentically, this week Pastor Doug shares a message from James 5:13-18.
