Better Ahead
Hope Filled Identity
January 14, 2024 • Pastor Mike Towner • Isaiah 43:13, 1 Peter 2, Philippians 3:20, Ephesians 1:3–4, Titus 2:11–14
Hope is the confidence that it will get better in the future. Our lives are built on the premise that there is "better ahead". In fact, our very existence on this planet was designed to be temporary. "But our homeland is in heaven, and we are waiting for our Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ, to come from heaven." - Philippians 3:20 (NCV). God created us to look forward to eternity with Him in Heaven!
Hope Filled Inheritance

Hope is the belief that something better is coming. What is coming is a restoration of what God created in the beginning. That fact alone should overfill us with joy and anticipation! Be filled with the HOPE in Jesus Christ!
For A Little While
January 28, 2024 • Pastor Tim Cinnamon • Romans 8:28, 1 Peter 2:23, 1 Peter 1:6–9, James 4:4, 1 Peter 1:1
1 Peter 1:6-9 "In this you rejoice, though now for a little while, if necessary, you have been grieved by various trials, so that the tested genuineness of your faith—more precious than gold that perishes though it is tested by fire—may be found to result in praise and glory and honor at the revelation of Jesus Christ.". God seeks to use all of our life here on this earth to refine us and make us more like Him. For our time on this earth if fleeting, and eternity with Him is forever!
