Today Pastor Mike Patz continues the Open Heaven series by asking, "What is the Message of the Cross?"

A Biblical Theology of Sex

December 3, 2023 • Matt Ulrich

The Open Heavens series continues, as Pastor Matt Ulrich takes us through the often confusing words in 1 Corinthians 7:1-7. Sex is an amazing gift from God, but we have hijacked its meaning for our own selfish purposes. What voice are you listening to in regards to sex? We must relearn what we have heard about sex, and align it to how scripture has defined it.

Single and Content

November 26, 2023 • Brooke Bauzon

The Open Heaven series continues as Pastor Brooke Bauzon shares the heart behind 1 Corinthians 7. Singleness does not mean one is incomplete. When you're dominated by cultures values, you will always live in anxiety. But when you are devoted to kingdom values, you will always live in abundance. In every relationship, we are called to live in undivided devotion to Jesus!

Sexuality and Identity

November 19, 2023 • Andrea Sarafan

This week Pastor Andrea Sarafan continues our look at 1 Corinthians, the Open Heaven series, with chapter 6. Sexuality and Identity is such a difficult topic in the times we are in. We have all been created as sexual beings, and likewise we have been deceived by the culture around us. One of the lies we believe is that God is holding out on us. Sexuality is part of us, but it is not the heart or core of us. Intimacy with God is what we truly need to thrive in life. We are promised fulfillment through Him alone.
