Have you ever said something that you wish you hadn't? Or have you have been on the receiving end of a biting or thoughtless comment? Do you remember how hurt you felt? Pastor Ken talks about how destructible the unbridled tongue can be and shows how we can diagnose the spiritual health of our tongue.
Consider what a great forest is set on fire by a small spark. The tongue also is a fire, a world of evil among the parts of the body. It corrupts the whole body, sets the whole course of one’s life on fire, and is itself set on fire by hell. (James 4:5-6)

If The Lord Wills

Who's in the driver seat? You or God? So often we move at such a fast pace, we sometimes find ourselves in the driver's seat at the helm in full control of our life and asking God to get on our plan and bless it. Bible Teacher Steve Carter teaches we should be leaning into God's plan for our life and let Him lead, direct, and guide our life.
Which Kingdom Matters Most
October 25, 2020 • Ken Werlein
What matters the most to you? Climbing the corporate ladder or buying that beautiful, huge house? You may be even asking yourself what’s the point in all this? When we allow ourselves to be influenced by the world, ultimately, our relationship with God will be severed. Pastor Ken teaches what matters the most – that relationship with God is, at the core, the answer to that age old question of what the point of it all is.
True and False Wisdom
October 18, 2020 • Dan Slagle
Do you sometimes find yourself treating God like Google Maps – you’ve already determined your destination but just need guidance on how to get there? Continuing our series "Making Faith Work", Pastor Dan teaches that to fear the Lord is to let Him determine the destination as well as the directions on exactly how to get there and that wisdom is found in only one place: in the hands of our loving Father. If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you. (James 1:5)
