"The Holy Spirit"

Kenny Koetter - Elder

February 19, 2024 • Galatians 5:16–17, 1 Corinthians 2:10–12, Isaiah 55:8–9, John 7:37–39, Luke 11:9–10

The Holy Spirit is the one who translates God's will for our lives and, as a result, transforms us.

If we take a closer look at our hearts, we will realize that we are mostly incapable of knowing what is best for us without supernatural help. As human beings, we tend to prioritize our happiness over seeking meaning, and this is a spiritual issue that we need to address. Thankfully, God has given us a Helper - The Holy Spirit, who can guide us in our journey towards spiritual growth and fulfillment.

So, how do we connect with the Holy Spirit? The first step is to have a strong desire to establish this connection, and then we need to ask for it. By doing so, we can experience the transformative power of the Holy Spirit in our lives.

"No One is Above the Rules"

April 29, 2024 • Heath Gray • 1 Kings 13

The Word of God continues to give when you dive in. This fact is on full display as we take a look at an obscure Old Testament story from 1 Kings 13. While this story is remarkable and memorable, it speaks one simple truth to us all: Disobedience is costly.

"Get In The Fight?"

April 22, 2024 • Brandon Bowen • Philippians 1:9–11, Proverbs 1:5

Discernment is the ability to judge well. It is the insight into right and wrong and the knowledge to provide solutions. All of this must be done with love and humility. As believers, we are called to show discernment in all things. To have this, we must pray, be in the Word, and lean upon others so we can see clearly. If we do this, we can answer the following question: "Do I get in the fight? Or do I get out of the way?"

"Love Each Other Deeply"

April 15, 2024 • Kenny Koetter • Matthew 5:14, 1 Peter 2:9, 1 Peter 4:7–10

God has lavished love upon us. This love is not to be hidden within but rather reflected upon others. It is a light that illuminates the world, our homes, and the church. It distinguishes us as a chosen people. As we show this love, we grow in our faith, and we grow in number.
