This Sunday, Pastor Greg shares a message titled "True Freedom" from John 8:31–38. While our nation celebrates freedom, Jesus points us to a freedom that reaches far beyond politics or circumstances. True freedom is found in abiding in His Word, knowing the truth, and experiencing the transforming power of the One who is the Truth. A genuine disciple doesn't simply believe in Christ but continues...

Pastor Greg begins a new message series, "Surrender: The Mouth & the Mind," with Part 1 focusing on the power of our words. James 3 reminds us that although the tongue is small, it has tremendous influence. Our words can bring healing and encouragement, or they can cause hurt and destruction. Scripture teaches that what comes out of our mouths reveals what is truly in our hearts. In a culture...

This Sunday, Pastor Greg shares a Memorial Day message titled “Are You Burning The Burnt Offering?” As we remember those who sacrificed for our freedom, we also reflect on the sacrifice Jesus made for all mankind—and the sacrifice we are called to make in return. Romans 12 reminds us that our lives are to be offered to God as living sacrifices, fully surrendered and devoted to Him.

This Sunday, Pastor Greg shares a message titled “When My Foot Slips” from Psalm 94:17-19. Life often feels unstable, uncertain, and overwhelming, but even in our weakest moments, God remains our steady help. When we feel like we are slipping under the weight of anxiety, fear, failure, or emotional struggles, His steadfast love holds us up.

Life is not an accident — it is a gift from God, created for His glory. Join us this Sunday as we look at Colossians 1 and discover that the lives entrusted to us are meant to be raised through Christ, shaped by His strength, and pointed back to His purpose. Through every joy, struggle, and season of parenting, God is faithful to carry us through. “For His Glory” is a message about identity, purpo...

This Sunday, Pastor Greg shares a message titled “Jesus Calls Whom He Desires,” based on Mark 3. As Jesus called His disciples, Scripture makes it clear that He chose those He desired—intentionally, purposefully, and with divine determination. This reminds us of a powerful truth: our relationship with Christ does not begin with our choice of Him, but with His choice of us. In His love and grace, J...

This Sunday, Pastor Greg brings a message titled “Victory,” rooted in 1 John 5:1–5. Scripture reminds us that everyone who believes in Jesus Christ has been born of God—and that through this new life, we are given the power to overcome the world. Victory is not something we achieve on our own; it is something we receive through faith. True spiritual victory comes not by striving harder, but by tru...

This Sunday, Pastor Greg concludes the series Jonah & the City: The Relentless Love of God with a message titled “God Cares For You.” In Jonah 4, God uses a simple plant to reveal a powerful truth—while Jonah was consumed with his own comfort, God’s heart was focused on people. This passage reminds us that God’s concern extends far beyond our circumstances; He is deeply invested in the lives o...

This Sunday, Pastor Greg continues the series Jonah & the City: The Relentless Love of God with a message titled “Comfort Over Concern.” In Jonah 4, we see an unexpected response from Jonah—anger. After God shows mercy to Nineveh, Jonah is displeased because the outcome did not match his expectations. His reaction reveals a deeper struggle that we often face as well: valuing our own comfort, p...

This Easter Sunday, Pastor Greg continues the series Jonah & the City: The Relentless Love of God with a powerful message titled “Greater Than Jonah.” In Matthew 12, the religious leaders demanded a sign from Jesus, but He pointed them to the greatest sign of all—His death, burial, and resurrection. Just as Jonah spent three days in the belly of the fish, Jesus would spend three days in the gr...

When God speaks, will we respond? In Jonah 3, we witness the power of true revival—when hearts turn, lives change. God calls Jonah again, reminding us that He is not just the God of a second chance, but of many chances. We don’t have to be perfect or impressive—just willing to go and be real. This message challenges us to move beyond simply believing in God to truly believing Him, leading to repen...

This Sunday, Pastor Greg continues the series Jonah & the City: The Relentless Love of God with a message titled “In the Storm & the Belly.” In Jonah 1–2 we see the prophet caught in a violent storm and ultimately swallowed by a great fish. While it may look like the end of Jonah’s story, it was actually the beginning of God working in his life. Like Jonah, we often find ourselves in storm...

This Sunday, Pastor Greg continues the series Jonah & the City: The Relentless Love of God with a message titled “The Runaway.” The story of Jonah reminds us how easy it is to resist God’s leading. Sometimes we do not want to go where God is calling us, do what He is asking us to do, or give up what He is asking us to surrender. Like Jonah, our instinct can be to go the other direction and run...

When God told Jonah to “Arise and go,” Jonah ran—but God’s relentless love pursued both the prophet and the city. This Sunday, Pastor Greg will show us that the same Word that came to Jonah has come to us: we are sent on mission to shine the light of Christ in a dark world. Jesus has commissioned us to go, to live the gospel boldly, and to spread the fragrance of His knowledge everywhere. Through...

Love is more than a feeling—it is a choice, an action, and a sacrifice. In 1 Corinthians 13, we see that faith and hope are powerful, but the greatest of these is love. This week, Pastor Greg unpacks the beauty of agape love—God’s self-giving, unconditional love that flows from who He is. Scripture reminds us that God didn’t just talk about love; He demonstrated it by sending His Son for us. Becau...

Because of Christ, we don’t fight for victory—we live from victory. Scripture tells us that despite everything we face, overwhelming victory is ours through Jesus, and we are part of His ongoing triumphal procession. This week, Pastor Greg walks us through what it truly means to be victorious champions in Christ—having victory over the world, over sin, over shame, and even over death itself. The w...

Surrender: Control Freaks Control touches every part of our lives—but when we insist on calling the shots, we drift from trusting God. Looking at Exodus 32 and the golden calf, Pastor Greg shows how the desire for control leads to impatience, self-reliance, and worship on our own terms instead of surrender to the Lord. True freedom comes when we stop gripping so tightly and start trusting fully. J...

In Romans 8, we discover the freedom and life that come from walking according to the Spirit instead of the flesh. This week, Pastor Greg shares how daily surrender to the Holy Spirit leads to real transformation, victory over sin, and confident living as sons and daughters of God. Being led by the Spirit isn’t just a feeling—it’s a lifestyle that shapes our thoughts, choices, and direction. Join...

Faith is essential to spiritual growth, and without it, we cannot please God. In this message, Paul Volbretch teaches from Hebrews 11 and James 2, showing how faith is built through our trust in God, our obedience, and even through seasons of testing. Biblical faith is more than belief—it is confidence that leads to action. As we continue our Leveling Up series, we are reminded that faith grows wh...

As one year closes and another begins, many of us carry hopes that have been delayed, disappointed, or even lost. Scripture reminds us that true hope is not temporary or fragile—it is living and secure. Through God’s great mercy, we are born again to a living hope made certain by the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. This week, Pastor Greg shares a message of encouragement, pointing us back...

The Christmas story reminds us that God often works through discouragement, discomfort, and unexpected journeys. From a long road to Bethlehem to a manger with no room in the inn, God used hardship to bring about His greatest gift. This week, Pastor Greg shares how God uses our discouragements for His glory, calls us to keep moving forward in faith, and reminds us that we are citizens of heaven—no...

The first Christmas was filled with unexpected interruptions, deep disappointments, and moments that required great trust. Through the stories of Mary and Joseph, we see that what feels like disruption can become an opportunity for worship, faith, and encouragement. This week, Pastor Greg reminds us that disappointment is not the end of the story—God is still working, often in ways far bigger than...

Psalm 133 celebrates the beauty of God’s people living and worshiping together in unity—like precious oil that brings anointing, refreshing, and blessing. Psalm 134 then calls us to lift our hands, bless the Lord, and experience His blessing in return. This week, Pastor Greg shares how true Christian community—fellowship, participation, encouragement, and shared worship—binds us together and stren...

Psalm 100 calls us to come before the Lord with joy, gladness, and singing—because worship is our response to God’s goodness, mercy, and unfailing faithfulness. This Sunday, Pastor Greg shares a message on the heart of true worship: entering God’s presence with thanksgiving and remembering that we belong to Him, the One who made us and shepherds us. When we gather, we don’t just attend—we come rea...
