We are called to live our lives as a living sacrifice, and though it's easy enough to say "yes Lord", putting it into practice and living from a place of sacrificial love is where we really find what it means to live a life that is holy and set apart.

Senior Pastor Scott Hobbs brings us an amazing perspective of how we can live out Romans 12. When we begin to see the big picture of our role here within the body of believers, we will see how the Master Craftsman has laid out beautiful plans for each of us. You will see your worth and purpose even when none of us deserve His mercy, and you will discover how you fit into serving within His church.

November 3, 2024 • Senior Pastor Scott Hobbs • Romans 16, Romans 1:16

This week, as we are finishing up our sermon series on the book of Romans, we see the perfect completion of Paul's "Good News of the Gospel" that brings full circle how we saw the book of Romans first introduced. As we have journeyed through this book, we first read of the power of God, and then, Paul goes through and outlines the following throughout the book: the wrath of God, the grace of God, then plan of God, and the will of God. Here, we are in the last chapter of Romans 16, where we are again reminded that above all, we are put our trust in the power of God. We are challenged to be connected to the family of God, surrounding ourselves with those who can keep us accountable, and we are to feed our lives with life-giving relationships, always pointing people to Christ. Most importantly, we are to radically trust God to finish what He's done. Your hope is not in your efforts or having it all figured out or doing it in your own strength. Your hope is to radically trust in God and in Him alone.

October 27, 2024 • Pastor Katherine Hopkins • Proverbs 27:17, 1 Thessalonians 5:11, Hebrews 10:23–25, Isaiah 9:6–7, Romans 15

Throughout the Bible, we find scriptures that bring encouragement to our hearts, reminds us of the hope that we have, and also grounds us despite shifting cultures. These scriptures then can become an important relational connecting point when we share with others, which causes us to reflect: in our relationships, how is God using us to build others up? Are we working hard to build our kingdom? Are we building God's kingdom or are we doing a little bit of both? How grounded are we in the scriptures that we are able to be that solid rock in a world of shifting sand? In this sermon, Pastor Katherine Hopkins took us to Romans 15, where we find Paul encouraging the church to live in harmony with others. We can be in a impossible situation, yet we can find hope and a unifying strength that brings joy above all! As Christians, we can stand together with one voice and one heart, focused on the Word of God to speak life to a hurting world.

October 20, 2024 • Senior Pastor Scott Hobbs • Philippians 2:3–5, Romans 14, Colossians 3:13

There is no denying that we are living in a very pivotal time in history where the church's response is so important, and what we often find, that when we should be focused on pivotal issues that impact the Kingdom, we are so easily divided upon secondary issues that really do not have the value that we sometimes place upon them. This week, Senior Pastor Scott Hobbs brought us the word as we continue in Romans. Here, we find that Paul gives us some very practical tips in Romans 14 on how the church should be responding to each other on secondary issues.
