Why do we often settle for less? Many of us will go into a restaurant today and order our food, but what we end up being given is less than what we wanted. We won’t say anything to anyone else at the table or to the waitress. We’ll just eat what was given to us and therefore settle for less. Sadly, many of us take the same approach when it comes to our spiritual lives. We settle for less when God has more for us. Jesus came so that we might have life and have it in abundance. He did not come to earth to save us so that we could settle for less than His best. So this week, we’re going to take a look at how we fall into the trap of settling for less and how we can overcome that by pursuing the abundant relationship with Christ that is available to us.

The Work Of The Holy Spirit
December 6, 2020 • Dr. Curt Dodd
The Holy Spirit is like Christmas. He brings gifts and He brings fruit. You and I, as children of God, need to understand how powerful that is for us. We need to live with the kind of hope and that kind of expectation, knowing that God will produce His power in and through our lives for His Kingdom. He will use the gifting of the Holy Spirit and the fruit of the Holy Spirit to mature us in our relationship with Him, and ultimately impact others with that relationship. In this week’s message, we are going to take a look at the different ways the Holy Spirit works in us, through us, and with us so that we can fully experience the power and the gifts that are available to us through the Spirit of God.
The Word
January 26, 2020 • Dr. Curt Dodd
One of the incredible things about Scripture is that there is so much information to be learned and absorbed even in the smallest of passages and verses. As we go through this series, we will be taking a close look at the first 18 verses of the gospel of John as we attempt to unpack and gain a better understanding of what he calls “The Word.” During this study, you will learn more about theology, understand the character of God, get to know the person of God, and learn how you can relate to Him more intimately. It is God’s desire to ultimately reveal Himself to His children that we can have a closer relationship with Him. He does this by revealing Himself through His Son and through His Word, which we will learn through this series, are one in the same.
The Real Creator

In this week’s message, we are going to be focusing on John 1:3, which says, “Through him, all things were made; without him, nothing was made that has been made.” As humans with limited minds, we are constantly searching for answers and clarity, specifically when it comes to how this planet and all of creation came about. But when we find ourselves looking too hard for definition, we refuse to acknowledge God for who He is. Scripture makes it very clear that He is the Real Creator. Jesus is the Real Creator.
