Physical water will quench temporarily, but the living water of Jesus satisfies forever. Solomon tried to find life in every well that this world had to offer. He concluded that it is a futile pursuit. So, what well are you running to today? There is only one with living water. That is a life pledged to Jesus, abiding in His presence through the Holy Spirit, and expressing itself in love toward Go...

As Jesus followers, we get the added benefit of seeing what God has done for us in Christ! Solomon was looking ahead at what God would do. We get the privilege of looking back at what God has done in Christ. We also get the privilege of living every day with the power of the Holy Spirit. But even as Jesus followers, we still look at life and say that it ought not be this way. We live in the tensio...

Easter is the celebration of an event. Jesus rose from the grave. 500 people gave witness to His resurrection, including His half-brother. But the true significance of Easter is what Jesus accomplished and the unlimited access we have to the presence and power of God. And it's good for eternity!

Jesus is the Greatest Of All Time. He is far more than an example. He paid the price to ransom us from death to life. But He calls us to come and die so that we might live. His glory and our joy are inseparable. We don't experience joy through seeking our own glory, but through seeking His glory. We seek His glory by presenting our bodies as a living sacrifice. We deny ourselves by delighting in G...

Have you claimed your position in God's kingdom? We become citizens of God's kingdom through our allegiance to Jesus. Trust Him. We participate in God's kingdom by hungering and thirsting for righteousness. Righteousness isn't a set of rules to follow. Righteousness is our right standing before God through Jesus Christ that makes us alive to the things of God. It may seem like a mustard seed, but...

This week, listen in as Pastor Will continues our sermon series "Giving Up to Gain." In this sermon, Past Will talks about how we have to embrace interruptions, entrust whatever, and experience satisfaction.

Maybe there are some who have walked with Jesus on the road of discipleship for a while, but the people or possessions of this world are pulling you in a direction of ineffectiveness. God extends His grace to begin a relationship with Him, and He extends His grace to continue in relationship. We're not defined by our mistakes. Talk to Jesus today and reconsider the demands of discipleship. What ar...

The call of a disciple is an open invitation, but few will choose to follow. Don't look at everyone else. The question is for you and me. What is your soul worth? What are you willing to exchange for it? We find ourselves by losing ourselves. There is great gain in giving up.

Listen in as Pastor Will talks about how we should love badly behaved people, paint the bigger picture, and wait for God's vindication. 

God can do a lot through a low-key leader. These 3 young men were tossed into the fire because they stood on their convictions in humility and courage. Through the influence of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, it was King Nebi who ended up changing his tune that day. God used the influence of three powerless young men to shape the heart of the world's most powerful leader at the time. Look at God...

Elisha refused to accept the gifts because Elisha also knew that it was God who brought about his healing. God used a nameless servant girl to work in the life of her master. Naaman, the master, ended up becoming a servant when God healed him. We never know where low-key leadership will lead! Let's be people who see God working in our circumstances by stepping into need with compassionate and cour...

These Old Testament texts can be difficult for us to wrestle with. Perhaps it is uncomfortable to think about God as a judge. There are aspects of  God's character that are hard to explain. God is love, and He is just. Both the love of God and the justice of God were fully displayed on the cross. God can't ignore the penalty of sin. It would be unloving and unjust. He also knows His holy standard...

Listen in as Pastor Will continues our sermon series "Leadership Low-Key." Pastor Will discusses how we should embrace sublimity, yet also remain anonymous about it. It is all for God's glory and not our own.

Deborah stands out as an exemplary leader in a low-key kind of way. She does so by developing a life of godly wisdom, decisively rendering judgments. She wasn't afraid of conflict. She spoke accurately and clearly what the Lord had commanded. When she was asked to lead by example, she did so. This is a remarkable woman of faith who enacted the judgments of God with humility and courage. She is tru...

Aaron would have his leadership successes and his leadership failures, but the greatest example of low-key leadership is Jesus. He's the only perfect leader because He emptied Himself by assuming the form of a servant.

Listen in as Pastor Will takes us through the book of Matthew and talks about how we should punt our pride and dethrone our ego, punt our prejudice and seek our savior, and pick praise and return our resources.

This Christmas season–is there room for Jesus in the home of your heart? Invite Him in. Let His Word make its home in you. If you let Him in, He can make the mess of your life into a message, just like with Mary. He took a young lady who was scandalously pregnant out of wedlock and used her to bring the Savior of the World to us all. God blessed the broken Bethlehem road that led Jesus straight to...

Listen in as Pastor Craig continues the sermon series "Memories in the Making." Where he covers the story of Zechariah and Elizabeth and how God blessed them with John.

The genealogy of Jesus is a twisted tree, but God's sovereignty and goodness encompass it at every point. It's important for us to go up on the mountaintop and take in the view. That's what Matthew has done. Humans don't always get it right. There are so many times I've been disappointed or disappointed someone in my life, but with God it is never a dead end. His mercy goes from generation to gene...

Our "amen" is sourced through Christ as we consider the fulfilled promises of God! In Him is "Yes and amen!" As we go boldly, we do so in the confidence that it is God who strengthens us in Christ and it is the Holy Spirit who seals us in Christ!

As Pastor Craig wraps up our sermon series "Soul Priority," he talks about finances and wealth and how we need to be careful when it comes to money. He preaches about how we need to be generous and careful where we put our money. 

 In the second-to-last week of 1st Timothy, Pastor Craig tells us how we gotta flee, but sometimes we gotta fight! We fight the good fight of faith by pursuing righteousness, godliness, faith, love, endurance, and gentleness. We win the daily battle by keeping our chin up! Not just physically but spiritually as we set our eyes on the horizon! We take hold of eternal life! We seize it! Our reward a...

Listen in as Pastor Will leads us towards the end of 1st Timothy. He breaks down the sermon into five different parts covering topics of coveting and satisfaction.

Join Pastor Craig and listen to him lay down some hard house rules and talk about the widows of the church.
