Stonehill Church

Have you ever noticed that you can have more than ever and still feel empty? Why are so many of us busy, connected, and still tired, anxious, and unsatisfied? This Sunday at Mountain View, we’re opening John 7:37–44 where Jesus makes a bold promise to thirsty people. If you’ve ever felt like something is missing, we’d love for you to join us at 9:30 or 11 and discover what actually satisfies.

The Promises of Christmas - The Promise of Light

The Promises of Christmas - The Promise of God’s Presence

In the midst of darkness, we are called to arise and shine. Isaiah 60 speaks directly into seasons of despair, difficulty, and thick darkness, whether that's personal struggle, cultural chaos, or the weight of circumstances beyond our control. The prophet Isaiah wasn't offering empty optimism to a nation in exile; he was proclaiming a promise that would echo through centuries. The Magi who travele...

Promise of the King

What are the odds that one person could fulfill hundreds of ancient prophecies? Mathematically speaking, it's impossible, yet that's exactly what happened when Jesus arrived in Bethlehem. Ezekiel's prophecy reveals a stunning promise: God himself would become the shepherd of his people. For 580 years, Israel waited in silence, suffering under foreign rule, longing for the good shepherd who would f...

The Book of John - Why We Can Believe Jesus

Ever feel like God’s timing just isn’t your timing? Or have people in your life who need Jesus, but it feels like they’re never going to turn to Him? We’re looking at a moment in Jesus’ life when everyone tried to rush Him and when people close to Him still hadn’t submitted to Him and what it teaches us about trusting God’s timing in our own lives.

Do you ever feel like you’re going through life looking for things to fill you, success, comfort, relationships, and they feel good for a while, but somehow you still end up unsatisfied? Sometimes we do the same thing with faith. We sample a little grace when we’re tired, a little forgiveness when we mess up, and a little encouragement when life gets hard, but we never fully experience the whole l...

Have you ever noticed how physical hunger can make us do some crazy things? The same is true in life — when our souls are hungry, we start reaching for anything to fill the emptiness. So let me ask you: Are you satisfied? Are you content with where you are — with what life has given you — spiritually, physically, and mentally? We’ll look at what Jesus meant when He said, “I am the Bread of Life.”...

Jesus Revealed

We're reminded that Jesus is our ultimate source of life and abundance. The feeding of the 5,000 isn't just about physical nourishment, but a profound lesson in trusting God with our seemingly inadequate resources. When we feel empty or insufficient, that's often when God is setting us up for something extraordinary. Just as Jesus multiplied the boy's small offering of loaves and fish, He can take...

Ever felt like you might be missing something bigger in life? We’re talking about how Jesus reveals truth we can’t afford to overlook.

With everything happening in our nation these past few weeks, it feels like God is stirring hearts and drawing people back to Him. More and more, people are seeing Jesus not as an add-on to life, but as their everything. Is that how you see Him? This Sunday we’re jumping back into the Gospel of John, chapter 5, as Pastor Doug teaches and challenges us on who Jesus really is. It will be a special s...

We're reminded of our calling to be 'salt and light' in the world. Drawing from Matthew 5:13-16, we explore how Christians are meant to preserve goodness and illuminate truth in our communities. Just as salt preserves and enhances, we're called to fight moral corruption and share the wisdom of Christ. As light, we're meant to reveal what is good and point others to Jesus. This isn't about shining...

We Pursue Simplexcellence

In this powerful message, we delve into the heart of discipleship and its vital role in our Christian walk. The key scripture, 2 Timothy 2, paints a vivid picture of spiritual multiplication. Just as Paul mentored Timothy, we're called to pour into others and help them grow in faith. This isn't just about gaining knowledge; it's about transformation through intentional relationships. The analogy o...

In this powerful exploration of John 15, we're reminded of the vital importance of abiding in Christ. Jesus uses the metaphor of a vine and branches to illustrate our relationship with Him - He is the source of our strength, and we are called to remain connected to Him. This connection isn't just about personal growth; it's the foundation for our ability to love others deeply. As we abide in Chris...

The Book of John - Pt. 11

When Jesus promises to heal a Royal Official's son at the end of John chapter 4, the Official takes Jesus at His Word. This Sunday we'll learn from the Official what authentic faith really looks like and why it inspires others to take Jesus at his word.
