Through the Fog: Navigating an Uncertain Future
February 2 - March 2, 2025
We all make plans for the future—whether we speak them aloud or not. We enter marriage expecting “till death do us part.” We invest in our 401ks, believing we’ll live to retirement age. We pursue degrees, certain the career will be waiting for us. We put in hours of work on the court, trusting our bodies will hold up. But what happens when those plans fall apart, and the future feels uncertain?
Starting February 2, join us for a 5-part series, "Through the Fog: Navigating an Uncertain Future", as we explore what the Bible can teach us about life’s unpredictability and how to find hope and direction when the path ahead is unclear.

More than a Sunday
January 19-26, 2025
This two-week sermon series delves into the heart of Christian living, exploring the profound truth that our faith extends far beyond the a Sunday. We'll examine the purpose of gathering as a community, moving beyond a focus on attendance, financial contributions, or simply adhering to a set of rules.
Instead, we'll discover that church is about more than receiving; it's about giving. It's about recognizing the unique gifts God has bestowed upon each of us and using them to serve our community. Whether it's sharing your musical talents through worship, utilizing your technological skills to enhance the worship experience for others, or simply offering a helping hand, we are called to actively participate in building up the body of Christ and demonstrating the joy and transformative power of a life lived in relationship with God.

One of the greatest conversations ever overheard is Jesus’ conversation with His Father. Over the next two weeks we will look at this conversation in John 17 and see what prayer—conversation with the Father-brought forth for Jesus, His disciples, and yes, even for each of us.

Preparing for Jesus
December 1st - 22nd, 2024
Consider the flurry of activity this time of year of people preparing for Christmas. But then consider an even more exciting possibility: preparing for Jesus. Preparing for Christmas is to get ready for a holiday. Preparing for Jesus, on the other hand, is to get ready for a life transformation. In this season of Advent we consider the inexpressible joy of having our lives renewed by Jesus. No grinching or grouching about celebrating Christmas here, rather our focus will be on the transformative power of Jesus in our lives and how we prepare for that.

Power walk or leisurely stroll? A blazed walking trail or new paths to perambulate? What is your walking style? Walking serves as a relaxing pastime for many, yet an exhausting or impossible task to the elderly or infirm. Helping people with their walk was a signature ministry Jesus. So how is your spiritual walk? Over the next six week we will be taking a topical trip through the book of Ephesians, looking to the scriptural encouragement of what it is to be God’s walking workmanship.

Launch Day
September 8, 2024
In John 11:35 we read "Jesus wept". The shortest verse in the Bible packs powerful questions and insight into who Jesus was. Launch day, where we officially begin the next school year, we forget all that led up to today and the hope and joy that comes from being a part of community. Jesus sets for us an example of what it looks like to experience pain and transform that pain into hope and joy. Join us as we explore the pain before, hope during, and the joy that can be now.

Sure, it can be challenging, but the rewards—love, peace, and freedom—are worth every step. Join us as we explore what it means to truly be not alone.

With a focus on how to be church this Sunday, Basics will help us better grasp the “why” at the center of it all.
