Throughout this Dreams series, we've explored what it looks like to pursue the vision God places in our hearts. This week, Jen Barker invites us to lift our eyes beyond our own lives and see how God uses ordinary people to build something that lasts for generations. Join us as we discover the privilege of being part of His greater purpose.

We all have dreams, goals, and plans for our lives—but how do we know we're pursuing the right ones? This week, we'll explore what it looks like to follow God's direction rather than simply chasing our own ambitions. Join us as we discover practical principles for walking faithfully into the future God has for us.

Sometimes the hardest part of faith is not starting the journey — it’s waiting in the middle of it. This week, Pastor Kevin is unpacking what God may be doing in seasons that feel slow, uncertain, or unfinished, and why those moments might matter more than we realize.

Sometimes the things God starts in our lives don’t happen the way we expected. What begins with excitement can quickly turn into waiting, setbacks, questions, and a process we didn’t see coming. Tonight, Maddie is going to unpack what it looks like to trust God in the middle of the process and believe that He’s still working—even when the dream feels delayed.

Growth rarely happens by accident—it happens through intentional choices, even in the moments that stretch us the most. This week, Regina Simmons will challenge us to look at what it really means to move beyond staying comfortable and step into the growth God is calling us toward.

Faith isn’t something that grows overnight. In every season of life, there are moments that stretch us, challenge us, and invite us to trust God more deeply. This week, Pastor Kevin continues the “Growing Up” series by looking at what it really means to mature in our faith and keep moving forward even when the journey gets difficult.

Marriage doesn’t become healthy by accident — it grows through humility, honesty, grace, and learning how to grow together through every season. This week, Pastor Kevin and Amanda unpack a powerful story from Scripture that reveals how God can strengthen relationships when we stop fighting against each other and start growing together.

Parenting—and really, influencing anyone—is full of moments we don’t feel ready for. It’s a mix of joy, pressure, growth, and letting go. Today’s message dives into a powerful story that reveals something deeper than just parenting strategies—it gets to the heart of trust, surrender, and what it really means to place what matters most into God’s hands.

Sometimes the hardest part of faith isn’t believing God can do something—it’s trusting Him when it feels like He’s taking too long. Today’s message dives into a powerful moment where everything seemed lost, and yet God was still at work in ways no one expected.

Faith isn’t always as steady or strong as we wish it could be. Sometimes it feels confident, and other times it feels uncertain. This message takes a look at what it means to trust God in the middle of that tension—and how He meets us right there.

Sometimes the biggest breakthroughs don’t come from having everything figured out—but from taking a step when nothing seems certain. This message explores what it looks like to trust God in the middle of the unknown, and how faith often shows up in unexpected ways.

Some of the most powerful moments in life come from places we never would have chosen. This week, we’ll hear a story that challenges how we see struggle, victory, and the way God works through it all. You might just find that what you’ve been through has more purpose than you think.

Palm Sunday is one of the most exciting moments in the story of Jesus, full of celebration, energy, and expectation. Underneath the surface, something deeper is happening that challenges how people truly see Jesus. Today, we are going to lean into that tension and ask what it really means to follow Jesus, not just in the moment but with our whole lives.

Following Jesus isn’t just a one-time decision—it’s a daily choice that shapes everything. This message explores a tension we all feel but don’t always talk about… and challenges us to consider what it really means to say “yes.”

Following Jesus is more than a belief—it’s an invitation to a completely new way of living. In this week’s message, Pastor Kevin looks at a powerful moment in the life of someone Jesus called who might have seemed like an unlikely choice. What happened next challenges the way we think about surrender, grace, and what it really means to follow Him.

Following Jesus sounds simple — but sometimes the hardest part isn’t starting the journey… it’s what we’re asked to let go of along the way. In this week’s message, Pastor Kevin unpacks a powerful encounter that challenges how we define surrender, love, and what it really means to follow.

What does it really mean to follow Jesus? In a world full of noise, options, and distractions, the invitation of Jesus is still simple — but it’s never casual. This week, Pastor Kevin unpacks a moment that changed everything for a few ordinary people… and might just change everything for us too.

What if the most important part of your story isn’t how you start—but how you finish? Today Pastor Kevin challenges us to think about what our lives are producing and what it really means to stay connected to what matters most.

Love is one of the most talked-about words in our culture — but we don’t always agree on what it actually means. During this message, we’re going to explore what Jesus says real love looks like and how it can completely reshape the way we treat the people closest to us.

Sometimes it’s easy to admire Jesus without allowing Him to truly change us. But there’s a difference between simply liking what He says and living the kind of love He modeled. This week, we’ll look at a powerful moment from Jesus’ final night with His disciples and wrestle with what it really means to follow Him.

Freedom isn’t just about what we’re rescued from — it’s about what we’re invited into. This message challenges us to rethink what real freedom looks like and where our choices are leading us. As we lean into Galatians, we’ll discover how surrender leads to a life that’s truly full.
