In this message, Pastor Aaron Kennedy kicks off our new message series, Adore.

Choosing gratitude removes any blockage and allows true worship to flow from the heart of the believer.

As we conclude the message series “From Beginning to End,” we study the Feast of Tabernacles, representing the millennial reign of Christ.

In this message, Pastor Sean Reed shares how we can worship in the waiting as we look forward to the day tha...

The Feast of Atonement is important because it represents the Second Coming of Christ.

In this message, Pastor John Conway shares how we have eternal life in heaven because He died and rose again.

In Jewish tradition, the Feast of Unleavened Bread holds special significance, so rich and powerful that it reaches beyond the nation of Israel to all mankind.

Throughout Scripture, Jesus tells a story that extends beyond the Jewish nation. He came to earth to take away the sins of the world.

Throughout the Bible, there are signs of significant moments in history and even the end of the world. These are shadows of things to come.

In this message, Pastor Aaron Kennedy shares the importance of living each day in preparation for our eternal home in heaven.

We often avoid the topic of death because it makes us uncomfortable; but as one of the six foundational principles found in Hebrews 6, the resurrection of the dead is important. Apostle Paul’s letter to the church in Thessalonica tells us that death is not the end. If we believe in Jesus, our eternal home is heaven. In this message, Pastor Michael Chandler shares with us the importance of living e...

Just like an old car, we need a new engine under the hood. We can’t successfully make it through life on our own. We need salvation through Jesus. In this message, Pastor Sean Reed shares how we can accelerate in life beyond our hurts, habits, and hangups by accepting the Holy Spirit in our lives.

For anything to be successful, it must have a solid foundation, and our faith is no different. We cannot build a healthy life without it.

In this message, Pastor Aaron Kennedy shares the importance of keeping our eyes on God and trusting He will bring victory at the right time.

We often find ourselves in a supernatural battle, and the armor to choose isn’t always clear. Like David in the Bible, we must rely on the armor that has proven over time to work the best. In this message, Pastor John Conway shares how choosing the right armor of God will help us live a victorious life.

Often we get sidetracked by culture and don't realize we're in a spiritual battle, not against flesh and blood. This can be dangerous if we're not grounded in prayer. In this message, Pastor Aaron Kennedy shares how the Holy Spirit equips us to fight the enemy and win through prayer.

We serve an uncommon God, and we can never approach Him in a common way. God is doing an uncommon thing in our culture. It's a holy moment that we can't take for granted. In this message, Pastor Aaron Kennedy shares the importance of being awakened to the things of God and the times we live in so that we're prepared for all God wants to do.

When we don’t understand what is going on around us, it’s important we turn to our eternal God instead of temporary relief. Worship will hold us together when everything else is falling apart. In this message, Pastor Sean Reed shares how reaching for God’s presence above everything else leads to a peace that only He can give.

The issue of fatherhood not only affects all of us, but is a central part of faith in Christ. In fact, God invites us to call Him Father. Fathers have an important job, one that requires wisdom and strength. In this message, three of our pastors, all of them incredible dads, continue our series by sharing how God is not only holy and set apart, but also desires a personal relationship with us.

We serve a Holy God, worthy of our highest praise; but sometimes we take Him for granted. Like Joshua in the Bible, we need to recognize when we are on Holy Ground. In this message, Pastor Aaron Kennedy shares the importance of approaching our uncommon God with the reverence He deserves.
