Subject line: Willpower doesn’t work HF, for many of us, wanting to change is not the problem. Whether losing the weight, getting into the right relationship or out of the wrong one, spending too much, or just feeling depressed, change is hard. But it's especially hard when all we have to work with is willpower. In our new series, we're going to be uncovering some hidden motivations in our hearts...

Why do I bother going to church? Hey family, there’s a common misunderstanding that the reason we go to church is to listen to the guy standing up front. He teaches us God’s word, we sing some songs, and then we’re good to go until next week. But the real reason for coming to church is to spend time with God himself, because he takes that time to construct our souls. In every service, we have time...

Hey family, there are so many people who say to themselves, “I’ll just skip this one service,” and then they stop attending church for a couple of weeks and even a couple of years. This Sunday is a great opportunity to come back and experience the beauty of being together and growing together with the body of Christ. When we gather, we’re not just attending a service, God is constructing a soul. B...

"I'm exhausted, tired, need a break, stressed out... " These are all words to represent where many of us are even when we're in Christ. There are issues that face us and people that drain our lives, and the question is, not will it happen, but what will I do when it happens. This week we're going to talk about being renewed by Christ even when the whole world seems determined to drain us. Please c...

ou don't have to be much older than 4 before you realize that there are some things you wish you had not done and some things that you wish you could do over again. Sometimes in life we do get a do-over and make things right with other people, but other times we find ourselves having to live with choices we wish we hadn't made, damage we wish we hadn't done, and regret we wish we didn't have to fe...

Family, It's fascinating to realize how many important meetings in the Bible happened at a well. A well supplies water, but in the Bible they often supply a whole new way of life. God invites us to meet him at the well this Sunday, so that he can pour his bountiful love all over us. Our speaker, Walt Quick, comes all the way from Massachusetts to be here! He is an executive pastor with Highrock Co...

Pastor Zac is going to tell us the exciting story of Queen Esther and how she stood up for her people even when she could have been executed for doing so. And it's a very appropriate time to hear it, because Monday is Martin Luther King day, and Dr. King was *always* a voice for those who had no voice. So...
