We live in a world full of opinions and outrage, where every issue becomes a battle line, and everyone's already picked a side. This summer, we're starting a series that walks straight into the hardest questions our culture is fighting over: abortion, gender and sexuality, cancel culture, medical assistance in dying, and more. But before we tackle any of those, we have to start by asking...

For three weeks, we've been looking at a cord: threefold, unbreakable, woven before the first wedding ever happened. We've seen that the Trinity is the original relationship, that the man was woven in first and called to image Christ in sacrificial love. This week, we come to the third strand, the one whose presence secures the portrait and makes it visible to the world. In Genesis 2, Go...

Before God created woman for man, he created man for Himself. He formed him, gave him work and oversight, and gave him direction before anyone else arrived. Genesis 2 unveils the creation of humanity; the story of a man being woven into relationship with God before he was joined to anyone else. This Sunday, as we continue our KNOTTED series, we'll discover what it means for a man to be made f...

We spend a lot of energy trying to build a relationship that will last; the right person, the right foundation, the right commitment. But what if the most unbreakable relationship in existence was already there before you arrived? This week, we're starting a new series called Knotted, looking at what the Bible says about Marriage. Our starting point is found before the first couple, before cr...

The Survival Kit is a message for anyone stepping into something new: a new grade, a new school, a new job, or a new season of life. Using simple everyday items, this teaching shows how God gives us spiritual “survival tools” for moments of fear, uncertainty, and transition. Based on Isaiah 41:10, this message reminds us that God’s presence, strength, help, and protection go with us wherever we go...

  Ruth: Finding God in the ordinary We've spent five weeks watching ordinary people make faithful choices in hard seasons. All the while, God was quietly at work behind the scenes. This Sunday, we close out Ruth's story, which turns out better than anyone could have expected. A mourning woman restored, a foreign widow welcomed, and a family line that reaches all the way to Jesus. If your...

  Ruth: Finding God in the ordinary Most of us know what we should do, but we're just waiting for a better moment. We're waiting for the perfect moment or maybe a sign from God, but what if it never comes? This week in Ruth 4, we watch Boaz get up in the morning, call a meeting, and do what faithfulness asked of him. He didn't hesitate or delay what he knew needed to happen. Maybe t...

SERMON TITLE: What Faithfulness Looks Like SCRIPTURE PASSAGE: Ruth 3:1–18 KEY VERSE(S): Ruth 3:1 — "My daughter, should I not seek rest for you, that it may be well with you?" THEME: Faithfulness BOTTOMLINE: Following faithful counsel is an act of faith. PROMO DESCRIPTION: Some of the most important moments in your life were shaped by someone who saw further down the road than you could....

Ruth: Finding God in the ordinary Everyone's looking for the right partner, but most of us are using the wrong filter. This Sunday, we're back in the Book of Ruth, asking a question that cuts to the heart of every relationship: How do you know if someone is worth trusting? At the end of chapter two, God begins to pull back the curtain on who Boaz really is in how he treats a foreign wido...

Have you ever had a moment when you looked back and realized God had been working the whole time? But at the time, you just couldn't see it. This Sunday, we're continuing our Ruth series, Finding God in the Ordinary. We'll find a young widow going to work in a field on an ordinary morning, but she walks into a moment that will change everything. No miracles, no dramatic signs; just...

  Ruth: Finding God in the ordinary Some of the hardest decisions we make aren't the reckless ones; they're the ones that made complete sense at the time. This Sunday, we open the book of Ruth, a story set in one of the darkest seasons in Israel's history. We meet a man who considered his options, chose the obvious one, and led his family in the wrong direction without knowing it. W...

EASTER: From Darkness to Dawn It was still dark… and hope felt gone. On that first Easter morning, everything seemed lost. Grief, fear, and doubt filled the hearts of Jesus’ followers. But in a single moment, everything changed. A name spoken in the dark. Peace in a locked room. Hope for the one who doubted. Jesus didn’t wait for them to have it all together—He met them right where they were. And...

  EASTER: From Darkness to Dawn What looked like an execution… was actually a coronation. On Good Friday, Jesus was mocked, beaten, and nailed to a cross. To the world, it looked like a defeated king. But every detail told a different story. The crown of thorns. The purple robe. The sign above His head. All pointing to one truth: Jesus is King. And in His final words—“It is finished”—He wasn’t giv...

  EASTER: From Darkness to Dawn What if you knew… someone would betray you— Would you still love them? This Maundy Thursday, we remember the night Jesus chose to love… anyway. He washed the feet of His disciples, He shared the bread and the cup and He loved—even those who would fail Him. We are called to love like Jesus—by serving humbly, giving sacrificially, and remaining faithful to the end. Di...

  EASTER: From Darkness to Dawn Today we begin our Easter journey, a week that changed everything. It starts with celebration: crowds shouting “Hosanna!” as Jesus enters Jerusalem. But even at that moment, many didn’t fully understand who He was. Over this week, we’ll walk through the story of Jesus, His sacrifice, His love, and His victory. So, as we start this week, here’s the question: Are we f...

  EMOTIONS: Getting a Grip of Your Heart & Mind We all want to make better decisions, but most of us are still reacting on impulse and wondering why the same patterns keep repeating. This Sunday at Mountainview Church, we wrap up our Emotions series with a message on the Discerning Heart. We'll look at what it actually takes to build the kind of heart that stays steady when life gets hard...

  EMOTIONS: Getting a Grip of Your Heart & Mind We spend a lot of energy managing how we appear to other people and even to God. But the Bible tells us that God already sees every corner of our hearts. This Sunday, we're in week three of our Emotions series, and we're asking a question most of us quietly avoid: what happens when we finally let God do the exam? We'll be walking t...

  EMOTIONS: Getting a Grip of Your Heart & Mind Have you ever felt pulled in two directions at once? The world tells us to “follow your heart,” but what happens when your heart doesn’t know where it’s going? In Week 2 of our Emotions series, we’re talking about the divided heart and why unsettled loyalties lead to unstable lives. Looking at Joshua, Proverbs, and Psalm 86, we’ll see how choosin...

  Deceptive Diagnosis Have you ever reacted to something, only to realize later that you completely misread the situation? Our emotions are powerful, but they don't always tell us the truth. This Sunday, we're launching a brand new series called Emotions: Getting a Grip of Your Heart and Mind. Week one is titled Deceptive Diagnosis, and we're going to look at what happens when our f...

  Virtue & Vices This week we are ending our series Virtue vs Vice and we are going to confront a silent but dangerous enemy of the soul: apathy. In the Parable of the Talents (Matthew 25:14 –30), Jesus teaches that faithfulness is not about how much we have but about what we do with what we’ve been given. As we wait for Jesus’ return, will we act in obedience or bury what God entrusted to us?...

  Virtue & Vices This week we are discussing a calling that most of us feel unable to live up to: purity. Also a stumbling block that many of us would rather keep in the dark: lust. How many of us have done the work to try and actually understand purity and lust, and how many of us understand the way God sees these things? We see these two contrasting concepts brought up throughout scripture,...

Self-control often gets framed as restriction, but Scripture tells a different story. In Titus 2, Paul shows us that self-control is a grace-formed virtue meant for every generation. Indulgence distracts and enslaves, slowly pulling us off course without us noticing. But self-control gives direction, freeing us from our impulses so we can run toward what truly matters. This message explores how gr...

SCRIPTURE PASSAGE: Ephesians 4:25–32 KEY VERSE: Ephesians 4:26-27 (ESV) - "Be angry and do not sin; do not let the sun go down on your anger, 27 and give no opportunity to the devil." BOTTOMLINE: Patience pauses. Anger pushes. PROMO DESCRIPTION: Anger shows up fast, loud, and demanding. Patience moves slower, but it goes deeper. In Ephesians 4, Paul doesn’t deny anger; he redirects it. T...

Virtue & Vices What do you do when someone else’s success quietly irritates you instead of inspiring you? James' letter to the church exposes how envy produces disorder while humility, shaped by the Spirit, creates peace. This Sunday, we'll explore how comparison corrodes the heart and why humility is not weakness but wisdom from above. We’ll look at the difference between competing...
