It's always a good thing to get back to the basics! Well, this week Pastor Scott takes us through the basics of baptism out of Luke 3 where we see, clearly, the truths around baptism.

Jesus is rejected in His hometown because His message of good news to the poor, release to the captive, sight to the blind, and freedom for the oppressed fell on spiritually deaf ears. Jesus' gospel is only good to those who need it badly.

John the Baptist is the hinge between two covenants. A wild man in the wilderness preaching a new message. He is the one that the prophets spoke of. The one preparing the way of the Lord.

Jesus was fully aware of the conflict that lay ahead of him. He was full of the Spirit and led by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by Satan but he didn't go unprepared. In this teaching, may we be encouraged and reminded that we must be prepared for the fiery darts of the enemy.

If there was ever a ministry to emulate it would be John the Baptist's. His mindset was simple and effective: Prepare the way and then get out of the way. It's all about Jesus being at the center.

A continuation through the gospel of Luke where we see Jesus as a young 12 year old boy sitting in the temple amongst teachers. This is a very significant moment in Jesus' life and bears much weight on the gospel message.

The encounter between the shepherds and the angel of the Lord gives us a clear example of the gospel's work in the life of lowly sinners. Peace comes from being found. The heavenly invitation is for us to come see the Savior of the world who came to us first.

The tension we feel between God’s call to obedience and our ongoing weakness is resolved not by trying harder, but by trusting Christ more deeply. Our obedience is not a means to earn God’s favor, but a joyful response empowered by the Holy Spirit.

Mary's Magnificat is an example of what our praise should be. Understanding, intellect, and focus all working together to magnify the Lord for the greatest thing He ever did for us - save us.

In this week's message, we study the glorious moment shared between Elizabeth and Mary. We see how God graciously confirms His plans through Spirit-filled encouragement and relationships. When life takes unexpected turns we are tempted to retreat into isolation, but God has called us into fellowship.

The Holy Spirit doesn't just save us—He transforms us from the inside out. We're regenerated, rooted in Christ, and empowered to reach the lost. You can't produce love, joy, or peace on your own. It's the Spirit bearing fruit through you. Stop resting. Start reaching.

We believe in the God of impossibilities! This week we study Luke 1:26-38 where we watch the interaction between Gabriel and Mary. We learn that divine majesty is received through humble surrender.

Our series opener is out of Ezekiel 37 where we see the Spirits role and power in bringing the spiritually dead to life through the proclamation of the gospel. We pray that this message encourages you today.

In this encouraging teaching, we look at the story of Zechariah receiving the good news that his barren wife would bear a son. In this text, we learn that the gospel gives us hope in our disappointments. We pray that this message is a blessing to you.

Bonus episode with Pastor Scott Owens from Forge Conference on marriage and the gospel. We pray that this message is a blessing to you.

How can you know for certain that the greatest story ever told is true? Sure, the historical facts and eye-witness accounts help, but the Spirit of God is the ultimate assurer that what we read and behold is truth! We pray that this message is encouraging to you.

In this series opener, we study the man behind the writings - Luke. Who is this man? We don't see his name in his own writings because his objective was the magnify the Messiah - Jesus Christ. May this character study on Luke bless your heart.

In this evangelistic teaching, Pastor Aaron walks us through an expositional breakdown of the parable of the ten virgins. A warning and a glimpse into the future events surrounding Christs return to collect His bride (the Church).
