Each of us is on a journey. God put us here in a particular life context and set us in motion. The challenge is to make sense of our journey and turn it into something beautiful. For guidance, this Sunday we’ll begin a new sermon series on the turbulent, magnificent life of Jacob, as recorded […]
Jesus’ resurrection is the most spectacular event in the history of time. This Sunday we’ll talk about the meaning of the resurrection and identify the secret ingredient that catalyzes resurrection power in our personal lives. Join us for our Easter Worship!
It’s one of the most celebrated days on the Christian calendar – full of pomp and ceremony, palm branches and pretend parades. But why? Why should I care? You could spend your whole life in church and never understand the personal significance of Palm Sunday. This Sunday we’ll fix that.
Life is mysterious. We feel compelled to try to figure it out. Why am I here? Where am I going? Why is this happening to me? This week we’ll seek some answers in the story of the turbulent life of Jacob, as recorded in the book of Genesis.
It’s one of our greatest anxieties. When I stand before God, how will I be evaluated? Even right now as God looks down on my life, how does God feel about how I’m doing? This Sunday Pastor Jeff will invite us to explore three Bible verses that are critical to understanding how God evaluates us. […]

As we continue our intensive study of the book of Second Corinthians, this Sunday we come to a passage that challenges us to reimagine life from an eternal perspective. What does that mean? How does it change things? Why is it so important to my current quality of life? Those are the questions we’ll explore […]
