From Aimlessness to Purpose

The Rescue

March 17, 2024 • Pastor Brent Warkentin

As we continue this year's Easter series, Pastor Brent reminds us that Jesus came to rescue us not only for eternal life, but also to give us purpose and meaning in our present lives. He encourages us to find our personal "zeal point" that aligns with our gifts and God's leading. Embracing this purpose brings confidence, anchors us through difficulties, and leads to a vibrant, fulfilled faith.

From Old to New

March 31, 2024 • Pastor Brent Warkentin • 1 Corinthians 15:14–20

Without the resurrection, our faith is useless. In order for Jesus to pull off the greatest of all rescues, He needed to die AND rise again. Thankfully, He did (!), and He offers to take all that is old and make it new.

From Fear to Peace

March 24, 2024 • Pastor Brent Warkentin

Pastor Brent explains that Jesus came to provide three types of peace: permanent relational peace with God, fellowship peace (that can be disrupted by sin), and situational peace amid difficult circumstances--which is the hardest to attain. Brent encourages us to persistently pray and remind themselves of God's promises in order to receive the situational peace that Jesus offers.

Darkness to Light

March 10, 2024 • Andy Owen

As we kick off our Easter teaching series, Pastor Andy draws parallels between the dramatic rescue of the Thai soccer team trapped in a cave and how Jesus rescues us from the dominion of sin and darkness. Andy unpacks the layers of sin that entrap us and calls believers to humble surrender, consistent repentance, and walking in the light.
