June 19, 2022 • Pastor Tim Veenstra • Jeremiah 2:13

One of the essential needs of survival is water. Water is necessary for life. Jesus and many other biblical authors use water to symbolize the spiritual life. Water in the spiritual life is also essential. We all need a source. Where are you drawing your water from? Cisterns? Wells? Or living waters?

Timing is absolutely essential is most areas of life. Whether cooking, comedy, investing, or athletics, to miss proper timing is the path to disaster. The Bible constantly teaches on the importance of knowing the times. Life throws changes at us, and changing times require wise responses. The question is simple: “Do you know the times?”

Worthy to be Praised

August 7, 2022 • Pastor Tim Veenstra • Exodus 3:13–14

Have you ever struggled to find the right word to describe something or someone? The greater the depth of something, the harder it is to describe with language.

Please Stop the Ride; I'd Like to Get Off!

July 31, 2022 • John Gregory • Matthew 8:23–27

Have you ever wished life had a “pause button”? Have you ever wished you could step out of a situation or circumstance and choose a different path? Most of us have. Jesus often uses difficult and even painful events in our lives to reveal truth and grow our faith. Learning to navigate these encounters is an important part of spiritual maturity.
