Standing Fast

August 11, 2024 • Nathan Roach

Nathan Roach completes our series in 1 Peter by covering chapter 5. In this message, the church is encouraged to remember their church leaders and respond to them with humility and respect.

The Fiery Trial

August 4, 2024 • Jamie Clarke

In this week’s message, Pastor Jamie continues our series on the book of 1 Peter, “Standing Fast”. Reading through this week’s passage, we learn that we as Christians will face persecution and trials in our lives. There are three lessons that we can learn from Peter on how we, as Christians, are supposed to respond when these arise. It’s by implementing these, that we can see the Kingdom grow even in the midst of pain and suffering.

Love Like there is a Tomorrow

July 28, 2024 • Brandon Heckler

Understanding God's plan for our future as His victorious church changes the way we live our lives. If we believe that we are building the ever-expanding Kingdom of God and pushing back the gates of hell, then we will love one another in a way that reflects that purpose.

Respond, Don't React

July 21, 2024 • Brandon Heckler

In this week’s message, Pastor Brandon continues our series, “Standing Fast”, on the book of 1 Peter. We explore another facet of the new life we, as Christians, are called to live. In a world of fear, conspiracies, and volatile reactions, we are called to be a steady force that responds to the issues we face with a heart to make a difference for God’s Kingdom.

Submission

July 14, 2024 • Jamie Clarke

God intends for us as His church to make an impact in the world. In order to walk in authority and power, we must first come under submission to the God-ordained authority in our lives. The way we carry our relationships with one another and with those in positions of leadership truly sets us apart from the world and advertises the virtues of Christ.

The Fight for Liberty

July 7, 2024 • Brandon Heckler

Pastor Brandon continues our series working through the book of 1 Peter. This week we dwell on the importance of distancing ourselves from the fleshly desires of the world that wage war against us. The wages of sin is death. Our fight for liberty is not to be free from God's authority in our lives, but rather to be free from darkness so that we can shine forth His light.

Who We Are

June 30, 2024 • Brandon Heckler

Pastor Brandon continues our series on 1 Peter and encourages the church to "take off" the old way of life that separates us and crave the "spiritual milk" offered to us through Jesus. When we do this, we can find out more about who we are together in Jesus.

A New Way Of Life

June 23, 2024 • Kevin Hayes

In this week’s message, Elder Kevin Hayes continues our series on 1 Peter by going through 1 Peter 1:13–25. In these verses, we see that Peter has called us believers to a new way of life, but what does that look like? By walking through the verses, we are able to distinguish four different commandments that characterize this new life and how we are supposed to live them out.

A Living Hope

June 16, 2024 • Brandon Heckler

In this week's message, Pastor Brandon kicks off our summer series on Standing Fast by going through 1 Peter 1:1-12. As we dig into this passage, we learn that since we have been chosen by God, we are called to a new life of sanctification and obedience. As we dig into these terms and understand what they mean, we are able to understand the living hope which God has for His Church.
