Exodus 13:17-14:31 This weekend we arrive at the end of our Way Maker series. Scene: What’s estimated to be around 2.5 million Israelites leaving a land they’ve been in slavery in for more than 4 centuries. “There will come a time in everyone’s life when they think everything has come to an end. And that will be the beginning.” - Louis L' Amour

Exodus 12 This weekend we arrive at the part of the story where 400 years of the Israelites being in bondage to Egypt comes to an end... In. One. Night. And what they do on that night gives a whole new meaning to the term “eat and run.”

Exodus 7-11 Returning to the story that we were in just prior to COVID, found in Exodus 1-14. Of all things, our services were first canceled on the very weekend Chris was going to walk us through the plagues. This story is the first of three in this section of Exodus; all three have much to teach us about our God who makes a way, and who foreshadows Jesus the Way! We are living in a time in which...

In the final message of our “Finding the Strength” series, Chris brings us part 2 of teaching on the wonder and mystery of how God strengthens us through prophetic moments in our lives. We'll hear a couple of testimonies of this as well. Learn some tips on how to discern if God could be speaking through someone, and how to discern something in your own heart and to what degree it could be from the...

Returning to “Finding The Strength” this weekend, Chris explores one of the most wonderful and mysterious ways that God strengthens us -- and how God uses us to strengthen others! Have you ever had an experience in which you felt like God was speaking to you through someone else? When what was said and the way in which it was said gave you pause and made you, at the very least, wonder? Perhaps it...

It’s been nearly six months since so much of our society was disrupted – from work, to school, to church, etc. This weekend, Chris presses pause on the 'Finding the Strength' series to reflect on where we’ve been and where we are as a church right now. Anchored in Psalms and Hebrews, Chris will also address a few common questions he's been asked, and share with you some encouraging things happenin...

Have you ever asked God to do something about a situation and He did it, but in a way that you never would have imagined? This weekend we’re spending some time with the story of Habakkuk and what it has to reveal to us about finding strength in the Lord when the ways of the Lord and unfolding events in our lives or world leave us confused. “The Sovereign Lord is my strength; he makes my feet like...

What’s your strength-building plan? This week, Chris identifies some places of strength-building as referenced in Psalm 84:7. They’re varied. He leads us to them, but He won’t make us drink from them. Choices must be made. Every day. "They go from strength to strength, till each person appears before God in Zion." - Psalm 84:7

We weren’t created to be strong apart from God. This week we're considering life as a road trip and the strength needed along the way. We also talk about finding water in dry places and wind our way thru Psalm 84. "Blessed are those whose strength is in you, whose hearts are set on pilgrimage. As they pass through the Valley of Baka, they make it a place of springs; the autumn rains also cover it...

Part of finding our strength in the Lord involves identifying ways our strength is being sapped! Chris identifies “strength-sappers” that often siphon off a lot of our energy.

How do we strengthen ourselves in the Lord during seasons of prolonged uncertainty? It helps if you are cultivating & LIVING in a culture of strength. Josh Brake walks us through the first part of Deuteronomy 6 to help us take a few simple steps toward building and maintaining a culture of strength in our families and our church.

A series from the life of David in 1 Samuel 30. Prolonged uncertainty has a way of weakening us. There’s something to be said for learning how to strengthen ourselves in the Lord.
