Text: Romans 1:14-17 The gospel proclaims that Christ Jesus died for sinners to reconcile us to God, that He is the only mediator between God and man, and that Jesus Christ is Lord.

1 12 25 Union with Christ Geoff Frink

Text: 2 Timothy 4:2 Why should believers proclaim the Gospel? Because it is a direct command from Jesus to share the good news of salvation with all people, fulfilling their role as witnesses and bringing hope to others by sharing the power of Christ's sacrifice, which is considered the only way to achieve eternal life; essentially, it is an act of love and obedience to God to spread the mess...

Advent 2024 sermon series message 3 Text: Romans 1:16-17 The story of the Bible is the story of Jesus and redemption. From the moment sin entered the world, God put into motion a plan to reconcile sinners to Himself. Jesus was prophesied in Scripture, appearing in Bethlehem to destroy the works of the devil. Truly, worthy is the Lamb who became to us wisdom from God, righteousn...

Advent 2024 sermon series message 2 Text: Philippians 2:1-11 We use the term advent in conjunction with someone noteworthy or important. Never in the history of the world was there the advent of someone more important or noteworthy than the Son of God. And yet... Given the deity of Christ we examined in our previous message, His arrival was so humble and unassuming - not to mention His humili...

Advent 2024 sermon series message 1 Text: Hebrews 1:6 The Lamb is worshiped because of who He is and what He's done.

Text: Colossians 3:1-4 As we land the plane on our mini-series on revival and personal renewal, we focus on a passage that sums it all up nicely. Christ is not the most important element of our life, He is our life. In light of His mercies, His grace, His unconditional love, our redemption, the precious blood and our inheritance, let us live unswervingly for Christ, remaining in Him, the true vine...

Text: Haggai 1:1-9 The Israelites were back in Jerusalem after the Babylonian exile. They lived in luxurious houses while God's House remained in ruins. Their misplaced priorities were at the root of the challenges they faced in life. The word of the Lord to them has application for us today. In light of the sobering message of God's judgment and also the eternal perspective, do we have mispl...

Text: Psalm 46 With the promise of His presence and assurance of His strength, the Psalmist calls us to trust in the Lord, give Him glory and take refuge in Him. 11 10 24 Be Still Colin Seager

Text: II Thessalonians 1:5-10 We've recently considered the holiness of God in Revelation, we now take a closer look at the subject of God's judgment. When we behold God's holiness in judgment, it naturally works within us a sober mindset. May we be deeply impacted by God's righteous execution of judgment and order our thoughts and our lives accordingly.  11 3 24 God's Righteous Judgment Coli...

Text: Hebrews 11:39-12:2 We face many challenges as we walk with the Lord, sometimes we feel like throwing in the towel. The good word given us is to not grow weary but to keep moving - keep walking, keep serving, keep loving, keep worshiping. There is great joy set before us! 10 27 24 Keep Moving Colin Seager

Text: Revelation 5 In the sequel to last week's passage, thousands upon thousands thunder the Declaration of Sonship - we who were dead in our sins and enemies of God, have been brought near, reconciled and redeemed. 10 20 24 Song of the Redeemed Colin Seager

Text: Revelation 4:1-11 A consistent theme in personal revival and renewal is a compelling vision of God's holiness; His glory.

It's a good word for each of us, especially for those raising kids.  10 13 24 Holy, Holy, Holy! Colin Seager

Text: Ephesians 3:14-21 When was the last time you reflected deeply on God's love for you? His unconditional, sacrificial, deep and abiding love.

Text: Hosea 10:12 Don't be distracted or stuck rut as you walk with the Lord. May Hosea's words fall fresh on us as we strive to be red hot in serving the Lord.  9 29 24 It's Time to Seek the Lord Colin Seager

Text: II Kings 22 & 23 Hilkiah the High Priest carries out routine orders from the King for a small business transaction. What follows is a chain of events that would transform the King and an entire nation, at a time when their hearts - and their actions - were far from the Lord. From the dumpster fire of their egregious sin emerged a renewal birthed in God's Word.  9 22 24 Shaphan's Gif...

Text: Matthew 5:7-12 Last Sunday, we read through the first four beatitudes and began to see how opposite the way of the world is compared to how Jesus describes a Kingdom citizen. This Sunday, we will examine the remaining beatitudes and experience the complete picture of a Kingdom citizen. 9 15 24 The Beatitudes Pt. 2 Justin Atwood

Text: Matthew 5:1-6 Have you ever read through Scripture and recognized how completely opposite the way of the world is compared to the way in which Jesus describes what it means to be a Kingdom citizen? What our culture often tells us to pursue, Jesus totally flips on its head. As we study, examine, and dwell on these words and wisdom from Jesus in the Beatitudes, you will recognize the striking...

Text: Judges 6:11-24 Gideon's life is a powerful reminder of God's desire and ability to use each of us for His glory. When we focus on our weaknesses and lack of natural ability, the Lord wants us to rest in Him and have confidence in His wisdom and power at work though us. Our passage from Judges 6 is a good reminder for each of us as we begin a new ministry season and regular rhythms after...

Psalm series message 4 Text: Psalm 72 As we go through another contentious election cycle, as followers of Jesus, we are called to respond differently. We are called to pray. Psalm 72, a royal psalm and prayer for the king, shows us how to pray for those in power now, what we pray to see in those who will ascend to positions of power, and what we are looking forward to when Jesus’ rule is fully re...

Psalms series message 3 Text: Psalm 33 Psalm 33 is a hymn of praise in response to the call for praise in verse 22 of Psalm 32.
