Sunday marks the beginning of Advent for the Christian Church worldwide, focusing our attention on the first coming of Christ at Christmas and awakening our hope to His second coming! This Sunday, we will focus on the hope found in Christ by looking at Matthew 12:18-21. We will look at the hope we find as individuals, but we will end by looking at the hope the world finds in us as Jesus ministers...

On Sunday, we will slow down to talk about God's invitation to each of us to look outside of our boxes and recognize the ways He desires to move through us in the lives of others! We will look at this from the story of Jesus sending out the 72 in Luke 10 and in light of the stories of God's movement in the lives of the mission team from California in October.

On Sunday, we will look at Romans 8:14-16 as we continue our conversation about praying in the Spirit. Our hope is to build a right expectation of who God is as a perfect Father in relationship with his children. As we do this, our belief is that our prayer lives will expand to a level we've never experienced before.

This is the last week of Life Together, our small group study of Ephesians 4-6. We will look at Paul's call to the church to always be praying in the Spirit, focusing on what that means, how it applies to our lives, and how it is the perfect defense against the work of the enemy.

On Sunday, we will keep journeying through's Paul's message in Ephesians 6 regarding how we prepare ourselves for the spiritual battle we face every day. Our conversation will include answering questions like the following. What is the spiritual armor? How do we "put it on"? What is God's role in this battle versus our role? We are nearing the end of our fall study and look forward to having you t...

On Sunday, we will explore Ephesians 6:10-12 and Paul's closure to his letter. In it, we will see Paul awakening his readers to a new world of opposition and the ongoing power found in the person of Jesus.

An Audience of One! As we dive into Ephesians 6:5-9, Paul leads slaves and masters into a new understanding of life. On Sunday, we will look into this and see how it can change how we live our lives every day!

Paul's challenge at the end of chapter 5 and moving into chapter 6 is to live our lives in our relationships so that unbelievers in our culture are drawn to Jesus. On Sunday, we will look specifically at the relationship between parents and children, focusing on how the gospel of Jesus changes how they are supposed to honor Jesus in their relationship with each other.

One of Paul's most outstanding expectations, named in Ephesians 5:1, is the call he gives to the church to "Be imitators of God!" On Sunday, we will discuss the idea of this challenge, what Paul meant, and what it will take for us to fulfill this seemingly unattainable expectation. Spoiler alert... Scripture never calls us to do something God will not empower us to fulfill!! We CAN be imitators of...

Sunday marks the beginning of week three of our small group journey through the second half of Ephesians. We will be focusing on Ephesians 4:17-32 and Paul's instructions for Christian living. We will consider his warning, his challenge, and the list he provides that helps define if we are taking daily steps towards Christlikeness!

On Sunday, we will take our next step in Ephesians 4 as we focus on spiritual maturity in the body of Christ, recognizing that living as spiritual infants is not an option and that growth is mandatory. We will also look at the purpose of relationships with others and how God uses those relationships to facilitate our growth!

I am excited for Sunday as we officially dive into the second half of Ephesians and launch our small groups! Specifically we will be looking at Ephesians 4:7-13, Paul's call to the church to do their part in equipping the body of Christ so the church can grow in unity as ONE body!

On Sunday, we will continue preparing for our journey through Ephesians 4-6, as we visit the foundational pillars of Love and the "Unity of the Spirit."

On Sunday, we will kickstart our journey through Ephesians as we lay a foundation for the upcoming season of small groups. We will talk about Ephesians 4:1-4 and the idea that our walk must match our talk! We will also commission our women's Scotland team at the 11am service. We hope you will join us!

On Sunday, we will look at the tension between expectation and expectancy in our relationship with Jesus. We will focus on Acts 11 and take time to shift our hearts towards trusting God for His plan rather than dictating to Him what His plan for us should be.

On Sunday, we will dive into the story of Elisha in 2 Kings. Elisha believed deeply in God's faithfulness and boldly walked out his faith. Elisha was an agent of transformation, and if we could embrace a fraction of the faith of Elisha, we could be agents of transformation in our homes, neighborhoods, workplace, schools, etc

On Sunday, we will continue our study of the Holy Spirit in the book of Acts as we venture into chapter 10. Last week, we named the 3 ingredients necessary for fire: wood (fuel), oxygen (environment), and spark (source) and specifically looked at wood or the sacrifices that we lay on the altar before God. This week, we will look at oxygen, the environment necessary for the Holy Spirit's fire to bu...

On Sunday, we will continue our journey through Acts, as we look at the work of the Holy Spirit in Saul's conversion in Acts 9

On Sunday, we will talk about humility in our expression of God's power from the story of Acts 8. We hope you will join us!

One of the great lessons of the New Testament is how the followers of Jesus handled resistance. Resistance is anything we experience that hinders the flow of direction we are going. On Sunday, we will look at Acts 5, the persecution of the church, and what propelled them to not be hindered by resistance in their lives!
