This is one of the most well-known, oft-told stories from the Gospels.  A Samaritan woman and the Messiah meet up at Jacob’s Well at High Noon.  They have a conversation about… water. But, is it REALLY a conversation about water, or is there more beneath the surface? In one of the most non-formulaic transformational moments in the Gospels, Jesus contextualizes His answer to the question, WHAT MUST...

If you grew up in the church, you know the song about the "wee little man", but, there's a lot more to the story than a short guy in a sycamore tree. Jesus was teaching us about THE POWER OF INVITATION, and flipping our THESIS QUESTION on its ear. WHAT MUST I DO isn't just a question for the lost... it's a question for the CHURCH, too. 

The most famous verse in the whole Bible is an answer to a question that was never intended to be asked. As we "Diagnose the Dialogue" between the Greatest Teacher of all time and one of the Greatest Learners of his time, we'll see that the question... WHAT MUST I DO... wasn't on the front of Nicodemus' mind, but it was at the very center of his consciousness, and Jesus found a way to bring it Fro...

For the next several weeks, as we journey towards EASTER SUNDAY, we’ll be spending time with Jesus as He has conversations with people in the Bible about the pathway to Eternal Life, and we’ll be looking for clues as to how these very individual, very contextual conversations coalesce into some kind of cohesive conduit for us to find our way there. It’s gonna be a blast, as we ask and answer the q...

2025 has already proven to be a topsy-turvy year for so many people, including many in our church. Pastor Fike had no intentions of adding this set of "TWO WORDS" to the series, but, God did. Sometimes, God brings us low to show us how HIGH He really is. It is only in our weakness that we can understand His Strength... and that's what this particular set of words serves to articulate. There is a s...

All of the other TWO-WORD-PHRASES we've covered are up against a common enemy... a basic human instinct that keeps us from taking God at His Word, walking out in faith, choosing to "one-another", and living a life of stillness. The reason we know this is because God laced throughout the Word of God a TWO-WORD phrase that speaks to this basic instinct 366 times... FEAR NOT. What does God know about...

The world we live in has a tendency to cheapen the values, notions & words of God.  Sex, in our culture… cheap.  People… expendable.  Obedience… negotiable.    For this week’s TWO-WORD sermon, we’re gonna Cross-Examine a HEAVY phrase that our world has done its best to LIGHTEN. The poison has surely gotten into the bloodstream, so it’s high-time we reclaim the high ground!    What does it real...

There are TWO WORDS that are spoken in tandem more than any other combined phrase in the NEW TESTAMENT… (OTHER THAN JESUS CHRIST). These TWO WORDS are the marching orders for the CHURCH. They are a WE-directive, and not a ME-directive. Jesus introduced them, and the New Testament Writers spent a great deal of effort making sense of what He meant. The TWO WORDS? ONE ANOTHER. (Here’s the List we pro...

What if you're only TWO WORDS away from a breakthrough? What if the only thing standing in the way of major change in your life is the integration of TWO WORDS... CEASE STRIVING.

What if you're only TWO WORDS away from actual, real-life breakthrough? What if all that's standing between you and the change you've been longing for is the implementation of TWO WORDS? What might those words be? Find out in this 5-week series... Week One is a Doozy!

In 1962, Vince Lombardi gathered his Green Bay Packers team together in the locker room before they ever held a practice and reminded them of their mission. “This is a football”. For our first Sunday of 2025, Pastor Fike did a similar thing. What is “the football” of the Christian experience? 

One of the great mysteries in all of human history is the choice God made to a teenage girl to birth the Messiah. What can we learn from the unusual ways God tends to do what He does? What does His methodology mean for us? How much did Mary really understand about what God was planning for her?

1792 years is a long time to wait for anything. But, if you've waiting that long, sometimes, the thing you think you're waiting for gets twisted into something else... something just slightly askew. Christmas Morning was the morning when everything changed. But, it wasn't exactly the morning that everyone was waiting for...

One thing our Pastor loves is “Christmas Magic”… that moment when a gift can produce the look of gratitude in a person’s eyes that almost nothing else can. The Christmas Story is what inspires the pursuit of that moment. We go through a lot of trouble to make it happen, but not nearly as much effort as God went through to bring the Savior of the World from the hallways of Heaven to an Manger in th...

December marks the beginning of Advent, and Advent marks the beginning of the greatest story ever woven through the pages of history by the hands of our great God... a story promised and threatened through the life of one very old, very unlikely, very faithful man. Find out about how the manger scene we celebrate at Christmas almost never happened...

The Apostle Paul has spent the bulk of the letter to the Church at Galatia stressing what NOT to do. Now, "Pastor Paul" is going to turn the corner and give some counsel to them, and to us, on what we SHOULD be doing...

If you knew there was a way to make Christian Living just a little bit easier... just a little bit better... just a little less frustrating...If you knew there was a "Cheat Code" to Christianity, would you use it?

For most Christians, the question, "What were you freed FROM?" is paramount. But, the follow-up is crucial, too. Why would Jesus go through all that trouble to set us free? Paul has an answer in Galatians 5:1-15.

Every November, as a church, we remind ourselves that "Mission" isn't something that happens somewhere else. It's something that's happening all around us all the time. This week, we get to hear from a man who's been surprised by the unconventional calling on his life... Jared Anderson.

Our culture has a real obsession with succession... building for itself a fiefdom that will last.  God has a deep determination for inheritance... sharing all that He is with whomever will trust in Him.  Some people are earners. Others are heirs. Which are you? 

Standing at the gates of Heaven, confronted by the Lord with the age-old question... "Why Should I Let You In?"... what would be your answer? What's the right answer? Find out in this week's sermon from Galatians 3:11-22.

There is an age-old question that has flumoxxed humanity...  which came first.. the chicken or the egg?  But, the more important question is this one:  Which came first... The Love or The Law?  Melissa Janish walks us through Paul's argument about this crucial question. 

What do Hulk Hogan, Michael Stipe and Bo Nix have to do with Galatians 2:11-21... find out this week as we continue our GALATIANS SERIES

The Apostle Paul can be described in a lot ways with a lot of words... confident, accomplished, brave, passionate, unstoppable.  But, here in Galatians 2, Paul shares with us a moment when he was something we'd likely never describe him as: INSECURE.  What can we learn from it, and how can we help him? 

We live in a culture that is obsessed with change.  But, is God obsessed with change? Does God want to change us?  What if God's not worrying so much about changing us as He is leading us?  Galatians 1:11-24 gives us a fascinating view into that question.
