Renovate Us: Living Loved - Kevin Kiefer 26.03.2026 28:33
You can know the truth… and still not be changed by it. Paul prays for a kind of knowing that goes beyond knowledge—a love that can’t be measured, yet somehow fills everything. What if the thing you’re missing isn’t more effort, but a deeper encounter? In Epistle to the Ephesians 3:14–19, we’re invited into something most of us have heard about… but never fully experienced.
Renovate Us: Heaven is Watching - Kevin Kiefer 26.03.2026 32:49
What if the church is more than a gathering of believers? In Ephesians 3, Paul reveals that God is putting something on display through His people—and the audience is far bigger than we realize. When ordinary, very different people are united in Christ, the wisdom of God becomes visible in ways that echo into the unseen world. This Sunday we’ll explore why the church might be God’s most surprising...
Renovate Us: Living Structures - Carley LaPointe 26.03.2026 37:56
This Sunday we’ll be looking at Ephesians 2:11–22 and the powerful truth that through Jesus, the walls that once divided us are torn down, bringing us together as one family in Him. We’ll reflect on what it means to live in unity, find our belonging in Christ, and be built together as a dwelling place for God.
Renovate Us: Take Your Seat - Molly Kiefer 20.03.2026 34:00
In Ephesians 2, Paul paints a powerful contrast between who we once were and who we now are in Christ—dead to alive, striving to seated, earning to gift. But if this new life is already ours, why do we still live like we have something to prove? This message explores the difference between aspirational faith and actual identity, and how grace reshapes not just our theology but our reflexes. We’ll...
Renovate Us: When Heaven Turns the Lights On - Molly Kiefer 06.03.2026 30:45
In Ephesians 1:15–23, Paul prays something surprising. He doesn’t ask for easier circumstances, more comfort, or greater success — he asks that believers would see what they already have in Christ. From a prison cell, Paul prays for spiritual wisdom, deeper knowledge of God, confident hope, and a fresh revelation of Jesus’ resurrection power. In this message, we’ll discover that true renovation be...
Renovate Us: From Inheritance to Eternity - Kevin Kiefer 20.02.2026 28:54
God’s plan has always been bigger than we imagined. In Ephesians 1, Paul pulls back the curtain to show us a grace-filled vision stretching from eternity past to eternity future: all centered in Christ. Join us as we discover how God renovates not just our behavior, but our identity and destiny. Ephesians 1:3-10
Renovate Us: You're Moved - Molly Kiefer 11.02.2026 30:39
Paul’s opening words in Ephesians are more than theology—they are a declaration of identity. This message explores what it means to be adopted by God in love and how that truth reshapes the way we live, think, and relate to Him. You’ll discover why so many believers live from old assumptions that no longer apply—and how God invites us into a completely new way of being. This sermon is for anyone l...
Renovate Us: When Authority Leaks - Kevin Kiefer 11.02.2026 34:34
We assume that when something doesn’t work, the answer is a better approach. But Jesus suggested something deeper. In a moment when authority seemed absent, He pointed not to effort, but to something that had quietly drifted. This week we’ll explore the unseen connection between power, presence, and the way the kingdom actually moves.
Renovate Us: Authority Starts Here - Kevin Kiefer 11.02.2026 41:06
Most of us understand authority as power, position, or control—but Jesus reframes it entirely. In this message, we’ll explore where authority truly comes from, why our first and greatest authority is being children of God, and how identity—not effort—shapes the way we live, pray, and serve. As we begin a new year, this is an invitation to rediscover our place in the Father’s house and learn how au...
Kingdom Come: A Holy Pause - Molly Kiefer 22.01.2026 38:58
The Holy Pause is an invitation to slow down and make room for God through prayer and fasting. When life feels uncertain, overwhelming, or unfinished, Scripture shows us a powerful rhythm God uses to bring clarity, breakthrough, and renewal. Through three biblical stories, this message explores how fasting and prayer prepare us for what’s next—whether we need direction, intervention, or healing. T...

The Story Beneath the Star: The Dawn in Our Darkness - Kevin Kiefer 28.12.2025 29:28
The people walking in darkness saw a great light—but not everyone welcomed it. Some were afraid. Some were indifferent. A few followed it all the way to worship. This Christmas, the question isn’t whether the light has come… it’s what you’ll do when it starts to disrupt your life.
The Story Beneath the Star: This is the Life You've Been Looking For - Molly Kiefer 28.12.2025 34:10
Many of us are doing our best, yet still wondering if we’re living wisely or meaningfully. This Advent message explores how Jesus stepped into human life to model a way of living that brings clarity, peace, and fulfillment. By looking at how Jesus lived, we discover how to navigate our own lives with greater confidence and purpose. Listen and be encouraged and re-centered around the way of Jesus.
The Story Beneath the Star: Expect the Unexpected - Kevin Kiefer 28.12.2025 26:52
From Bethlehem to your living room, God often fulfills His word in ways we don’t see coming. Join us as we learn how Advent sharpens our vision to recognize the faithful God who shows up—not always as we expect, but always right on time.
The Story Beneath the Star: With Us - Carley LaPointe 28.12.2025 28:15
WITH US: The incarnation is God’s ultimate act of closeness. Jesus stepped into our world — not as a distant deity but as Immanuel, “God with us.”
The Offer on the Thanksgiving Table - Molly Kiefer 26.11.2025 33:20
Life is full of unknowns, and our minds are quick to fill in the blanks with fear, stress, and worst-case scenarios. But Scripture gives us a different way. In this sermon, we’re talking about the practice of thankfulness — not as a holiday habit, but as a spiritual weapon that reduces anxiety, builds faith, and opens the way for God’s peace to guard our hearts and minds. If you could use more pea...
The Spark That Starts the Miracle - Kevin Kiefer 18.11.2025 35:56
What would Jesus find if He looked for faith in your life today — amazement or disappointment? Faith is the doorway through which God’s kingdom breaks into our world, and Jesus teaches that even the smallest spark can unleash the impossible when placed in Him. This week we learn how to stir up our faith, overcome unbelief, and step into the kind of bold trust that sees miracles, breakthroughs, and...
The Messiah You Always Needed - Ted Humphrey 18.11.2025 41:50
In a world full of challenges, existential threats, and disappointments, where does our hope come from? In this message, we unpack Isaiah's vision of the mysterious Messiah, a figure of breathtaking power and beauty who was predicted to reign, serve, and conquer. By beholding and understanding the vision of the Messiah in Isaiah, each of us can gain an appreciation for God’s brilliant plan for the...
Be Someone's VIP - Molly & Kevin Kiefer 17.11.2025 36:38

Unmasked: From Hiding to Healing pt ii - Kevin Kiefer 28.10.2025 33:41
Some of us aren’t tired from what we’re doing… we’re tired from pretending. Every day we carry masks, hiding our fears, our failures, and the parts of us we think no one can handle. This Sunday, we’ll uncover the hidden burden that keeps us from peace — and see the surprising way Jesus lifts it, setting us free to live fully and honestly in His grace.

Skeletons in Your Closet (and How to Get Them Out!) - Molly Kiefer 28.10.2025 32:45
We all have things we’d rather keep hidden—old hurts, silent grudges, and memories that still whisper from the past. But what if those hidden skeletons are stealing your peace today? Join us as we discover how forgiveness opens the door to freedom, healing, and the fresh fragrance of God’s grace. We want to live unoffended, staying free of the root of bitterness.
Why Church? with Special Guests Duke & Marie Lancaster 16.10.2025 34:49
By definition, the Church is an intentional gathering people who have assembled for a specific purpose. The Church is never about a building. And the Church is never about you. The Church is about us. The Church is about belonging. It's how we learn and grow and do life together. So if you don't participate, you miss out. If you don't engage, the rest of us miss out. We need one another. You can't...
