James 4 challenges us recognize the importance of viewing time through a biblical lens along with submitting to God's sovereignty over our time. It challenges us to abandon the illusion of control, embrace the brevity and uncertainty of life, and align our daily activities with God's will, ensuring that every moment is spent purposefully and for His glory.

Did you know that the Bible tells you how to do your job? The Bible reminds us that work is a good thing that God Himself participates in and so should we as His creatures made in His image. We should approach our jobs with sincerity, diligence, and a sense of purpose beyond just earning a living. This sermon encourages believers to view their work as an extension of their discipleship and a means...

In 2 Corinthians 5:21, Paul reveals the profound exchange that took place on the cross: "God made him who had no sin to be sin for us, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God." This sermon will explore the depths of Christ's sacrifice, where He took on our sin and bestowed upon us His righteousness.

On this Sunday, we welcome Matt Owen as our guest speaker to deliver a sermon from Psalm 32. In this Psalm, David reveals the heavy burden of guilt and the profound relief that comes from confessing our sins to God. As we explore this psalm, we'll uncover the path to true forgiveness and the joy that accompanies a heart set free from guilt.

One of our elders preaches on hell where he examines its reality, alternative views, and biblical support from both Testaments. This sermon explores the nature of Hell, its creation, rulership, the experiences within, and its duration. Dave spends time emphasizing God's characteristics, sin, judgment, punishment, the Gospel, a Christian response, a message to non-believers, and call to action.

We have all been affected by trials and grief in some way. And rather than leave us alone and without answers, the Bible actually tells us why trials come, how to deal with them, and what God is doing in the midst of them. In this sermon, we will explore the profound wisdom of James 1:2-4, which encourages us to find joy in trials. We'll delve into how facing challenges with faith can strengthen o...

**Please forgive us for the first few minutes of the sermon being cut off as we had issues with our livestream** As we look at the well-known story of David and Goliath from 1 Samuel 17 which is often viewed as a tale of personal triumph, we discover that this story is much more than a motivational tale. This sermon shows us that the story primarily points to Jesus: the true hero who conquers our...

The story of Jonah is often only partially told. Maybe because when we look at all four chapters, it causes us to face the uncomfortable truth that we are often far more like Jonah than we would like to admit. This sermon delves deep into the narrative of this reluctant prophet to show us the incredible Redemption that Jesus (the better Jonah) provides for us. This story also challenges us to stop...

Daniel's unwavering faith and integrity certainly give us an example worth following. Despite facing numerous challenges and opposition, he remained faithful in all aspects of his life. We’ll delve into how his commitment to God and his exemplary conduct serve as a powerful testament to the impact of living out one’s faith boldly. More importantly, we will see that despite all of this, he is not t...

As we delve into the powerful story of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, we'll explore the cost of following Jesus, even when it demands immense personal sacrifice. This narrative challenges us to examine our own faith and devotion amidst cultural pressures. These three men teach us about the exclusive nature of true worship and the assurance of God's presence in our trials. They show us how to hav...

This story may seem to be pretty straightforward at first - Jacob wrestles with God and receives a blessing from Him. But as we dig in, we find not only profound lessons for us to draw from in our walk with Christ, but more importantly we see shadows and seeds of the Gospel unfolding right before our eyes. We truly see Jesus in this story and it's one that we had better pay attention to as it carr...

**We have left the recording of this entire worship service on the app because there are several parts to the sermon dispersed throughout the service. We hope you are encouraged by this worship serviced centered on the truths in Psalm 84. ** Psalm 84 expresses a deep longing and joy for God's presence, describing the beauty of dwelling in His house. It highlights the incomparable value of a single...

In the final sermon of the Parables of the Kingdom series, Jesus returns to Nazareth where he faces rejection despite performing miracles and displaying wisdom. The townsfolk, familiar with him as a mere carpenter, struggle to accept his divine authority and prophetic message, illustrating the dangers of familiarity breeding contempt. Despite astonishment at their unbelief, Jesus withholds further...

In Matthew 13:47-52, Jesus illustrates the separation of the evil and the righteous, emphasizing the consequences of rejecting the Kingdom. Using vivid imagery, he describes a net gathering fish of all kinds, symbolizing people of every tribe, and emphasizes the inevitability of this separation. Jesus warns of the fate of the evil, describing hell as a real, eternal, fiery, and dark place, urging...

In Matthew 13:44-46, Jesus emphasizes the immense value of the Kingdom of Heaven through two parables. These stories illustrate the Kingdom's hidden but profound worth, prompting followers to prioritize it above all worldly possessions. The parables urge believers to willingly sacrifice everything for the joy of embracing the Kingdom, emphasizing that true fulfillment lies in wholeheartedly embrac...

Jesus describes the Kingdom of Heaven like a mustard seed that begins small and insignificant, but eventually grows very large and offers shelter and rest for those who need it. He also describes the Kingdom as leaven that eventually permeates the entire lump of dough. What does this mean for us as we continue on our mission to "make disciples?"

One of our elders - Dave Harkey - walks us through the Parable of the Weeds. Jesus tells us what it will be like at the final judgement for those who believe and those who don't.

One of our elders - Nate O'Brien walks us through the purpose of the parables. Jesus taught that parables were designed to communicate truth to those who believe and to further confound those who do not believe.

Jesus begins to respond to the intense opposition He has faced from both the Pharisees and even some within His own family. He does so by telling seven parables that illustrate the Kingdom of God and those who will enter it. In the first of those parables, He explains the different types of people that will respond to the Gospel of the Kingdom. It's a challenge to us to ensure that our hearts are...

Join us as we celebrate the Resurrection of Jesus Christ. We will look at what the resurrection means and why it matters for us in everyday life. We will see that Jesus truly died, truly rose, and we will truly rise with Him!

Paul concludes his instructions to families by speaking to children and parents. In these 4 verses, we learn so much about what it means for children to obey and parents to raise their children in the Lord. The Gospel is seen all throughout these relationships and the Gospel offers us hope where we so often fall short as parents and children.

After hearing what wives and husbands are called to do in marriage, we can wonder where the strength to do those things comes from. We can wonder what the meaning and purpose of it all is. Paul gives us the ultimate meaning and purpose of marriage in these verses. We are reminded that marriage is a beautiful thing, but it's not the ultimate thing.

What is the role of a husband in a marriage? How can a man faithfully love and lead his wife? In learning about the role of a husband in the home, we also see the love of Christ for His people.

Our series on building a Godly home kicks off in the same place Paul does in Ephesians - with instructions to wives. What does biblical, godly submission look like in the home? How does it differ from the ways people have abused this doctrine and also the ways people have misunderstood it? How can a wife put the Gospel on display in her home? We believe healthy families are one of the building blo...

All of us are facing something that can stir anxiety in our hearts. Health issues, relational burdens, financial instability, political wars, literal wars, spiritual battles, and the list goes on and on. How exactly can we obey Jesus’ words to “not be anxious?” Not only do we have the comforting words of Jesus that He is with us and knows what we need, but Paul gives us very practical and specific...
