From a Gift to a Blessing
December 19, 2021 • Pastor Tyler Gramling
In Part 6 of Storybook Christmas, Pastor Tyler Gramling shares with us from the children’s book, “The Not Very Merry Pout-Pout Fish”. Pout-Pout Fish feels that the gift that he purchases for his friends must be perfect. We may try to find that perfect gift also to no avail. God sends us the perfect gift for all of humanity at Christmas: Jesus! And God also gives each of us a gift to use for His glory. When we accept God’s gift of grace, we become the blessing!! How will we use that gift to bless others today and always?
Apathy
November 7, 2021 • Pastor Tyler Gramling
Have you ever felt uninvested? Maybe lacking passion for life, perspective, and even faith. Apathy—it takes its turn attacking each of us. Robbing us of our joy and purpose in life. So what do we do when we are overtaken by apathy? How do we climb out of that seemingly deep pit? Pastor Tyler Gramling shares an encouraging message of hope built upon the promises of God!
David & Goliath
August 8, 2021 • Pastor Tyler Gramling
Have you ever heard the story of David & Goliath? I would venture to say that the majority of us have, as it is a classic tale about fighting hard to win when the odds are stacked against us. David was small, and Goliath—a giant. Maybe this sounds familiar in your own life. You’re faced with a challenge that seems insurmountable. Pastor Tyler Gramling shares how David defeated the giant—and even how he lived beforehand that prepared him for the giants to come!
Home Is Where You Make It
March 28, 2021 • Pastor Tyler Gramling
When you think of the idea of “coming home”, you might think of going back to the place, the home where you grew up. Maybe it’s where your family lives for generations, and the familiarity is what makes it home to you. The truth is, it’s often true that home is where you make it! Circumstances might not always be ideal—you may be far from family, from old friends, but you can make a home where you’re at. God tells us to plant our roots and we will bear harvest, grow in faith, and rely on one another as Christ-followers. Home is truly where you make it!
Failure Isn't Final
February 21, 2021 • Pastor Tyler Gramling
Have you ever failed at something? Maybe you are killing this game of life, but maybe failure just feels like it’s your “thing”. Whichever category you most relate with, we’ve all experienced failure. There is GREAT news! Your story doesn’t end here... there is redemption for everyone! It’s not how, when, or how often you experience failure—it’s what you do after you fail that makes or breaks your story!

Fashioned for Christmas
December 20, 2020 • Pastor Tyler Gramling
Christmas is a time of reflection, as Jesus changed us, we strive to be better and usher in the coming new year with new habits, and a changed heart. As they say, out with the old, in with the new! It’s like cleaning out your closet from last year’s tattered clothes—it’s time to put on your new, designer clothes of love and forgiveness!

The Three Little Pigs
November 8, 2020 • Pastor Tyler Gramling
What is excellence? What amount of effort is enough? Are you just barely sliding by in this life, or are you doing your utmost to be the best you can be in everything you do? So many people will try to tell you that it’s okay to do the bare minimum, which is actually the opposite of excellence. Pastor Tyler Gramling gives a passionate teaching on what excellence actually is, and ultimately why excellence matters!
Guarding, Not Guarded
August 26, 2020 • Pastor Tyler Gramling
God has a beautiful, full life carved out for us as humans on this earth. He wants nothing more than the joy and peace of His followers. But wait—not everyone has such a beautiful life. There’s poverty, sickness, stealing, and all around lack of success. When sin entered the earth, God’s perfect plan was ruined. Pastor Tyler Gramling shows that we don’t need to CREATE our futures, but rather GUARD our futures from sin and humanity, in order that we can live the life of fulfillment that God intends for us!
Mid Week Service
July 22, 2020 • Pastor Tyler Gramling
In order for a new tree to grow, a seed must be planted. But you can’t just plant a seed, it must fall upon the right soul, and it must be watered and cultivated in order for a healthy plant to emerge. Sounds simple, right? And yet meticulous at the same time. The same is true in our lives. In order for a new life to be born within us, we must die to our old sinful ways, and allow a new seed to be planted and tended to in order for us to grow in our relationship with God. Pastor Tyler Gramling shares how to plant the right kind of seeds, in order that we might become new each and every day!
A Servant Heart
July 19, 2020 • Pastor Tyler Gramling
Doing things for others out of the goodness of our hearts is truly the greatest feeling. Serving one another out of love, not obligation. God created us to serve one another! Pastor Tyler Gramling shares a special teaching on having a servant’s heart—and in doing so, we mirror the qualities of God in the process!
It’s Not You... It’s Me
February 2, 2020 • Pastor Tyler Gramling
We all argue, fight—encounter conflict. It’s part of life, we are all part of a sinful human nature. Whether it be with a family member, spouse, friend, neighbor, or a coworker, we will all inevitably encounter conflict with one another. What does the Bible say about dealing with conflict? Can we equip ourselves with qualities to help us better navigate through conflict in our lives?
