Can My Life Meaning Survive Suffering?

March 22, 2026 • Michaell Dupin

Suffering has a way of interrupting everything—your plans, your sense of control, even your understanding of what your life is about. And in those moments, a deeper question shows up: Can any of this still have meaning? What if suffering is actually revealing what we’ve built our lives on—and whether it can hold? In this message, we explore what it looks like to find meaning in the middle of suffering. Because if suffering is part of life, then meaning has to be able to survive it. Whether you’re in the middle of it or still making sense of what you’ve walked through, this could be a great message for you to listen to today.

Why Do People Care About Doing Good?

March 15, 2026 • Mark Wollan

Most people want to live good lives. We want justice. We care about equality. We admire kindness, humility, and generosity. And you don’t have to believe in God to care about those things. So why do humans care so deeply about goodness in the first place? During this service, we explored where our moral instincts come from—and how belief in God might offer a deeper foundation for the kind of world we all hope for. It’s a question that opens the door to deeper reflection about what we believe and why. Listen to hear more!

Can We Trust Anything Anymore?

March 1, 2026 • Clint Dupin

We’ve launched a new series for anyone longing for clarity and hope in the cultural moment we’re living in. In a world marked by division, anxiety, and growing distrust, faith can sometimes feel disconnected from real life. This series is a space to slow down, think deeply, and rediscover how belief in God speaks into the questions we’re actually asking every day. This week, we explored Jesus’ words in John 18 and the question of truth in an age of noise and confusion. As our culture wrestles with what’s real and what’s reliable, we looked at how Christianity offers a steady, thoughtful foundation you can build your life on—right where you are.

Who Am I Supposed to Be?

March 8, 2026 • Clint Dupin

What does it really mean to be free? Our culture tells us freedom is living without limits and defining life on our own terms—yet many people still feel restless and unsatisfied. In this message, we explore Jesus’ surprising teaching that true freedom isn’t found in having no boundaries, but in discovering the life we were created for. This sermon challenges cultural assumptions and points us toward the deeper freedom that leads to lasting peace and purpose.
