Give

Today's message focuses on 1 Peter 1:13-25, urging us to prepare for our spiritual journey like a marathon runner. We are called to live with hope, holiness, reverent fear, and love. By setting our minds on Christ's return, striving for holiness, acknowledging God's authority, and loving one another deeply, we reflect our new identity in Christ. Let us challenge ourselves to apply these principles in our daily lives.

I Will Go

October 24, 2024 • Pastor Matt Keller • Isaiah 6

Experiencing God can profoundly motivate us to share the gospel. Isaiah 6 illustrates how an encounter with God transformed Isaiah's willingness to spread His message. Despite knowing the people wouldn't listen, Isaiah's awe of God's glory drove him to say, 'Here I am, send me.' Every believer is called to be a missionary, sharing the gospel in their own context. This week, challenge yourself to trust in God's plan and share His message, even if immediate results aren't visible.

This is Our Home–For Now

September 11, 2024 • Pastor Seth Drayer • Jeremiah 29:1–14

Feeling displaced and weary in today's world is a sentiment many share. In this message, we explore the exile of Judah in Jeremiah 29 to draw principles for living faithfully as spiritual exiles. The people of Judah felt abandoned in Babylon, but God had a plan for them, just as He has a plan for us. God commanded the exiles to build houses, plant gardens, marry, and seek the welfare of their city, showing that faithfulness involves active participation in our communities. By engaging in normal, everyday activities and seeking the welfare of our communities, we prove our faith in God's promises. As spiritual exiles, we are called to invest in our temporary home, trusting in God's ultimate plan for us.

Uncompromising Faith

September 8, 2024 • Nate Sexton • Daniel 3

Join Pastor Nate Sexton for a deep dive into Daniel 3 where we delve into the narrative of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, who faced the ultimate test of faith when commanded to worship a golden image or face death. Their refusal to compromise their beliefs, despite the external temptations and the possibility of rationalizing their actions, serves as a profound lesson in steadfast faith. The sermon underscores the miraculous nature of their survival in the fiery furnace and the subsequent recognition of God's power by King Nebuchadnezzar.
