Now Is the Time
This moment is a critical time in our church history. God has not called us to do church but to be the church. Now is the time to no longer wait and see. God wants to do something remarkable in and through us right now! In this series, we’re going to look back at the very first words Jesus ever said
What's Your Plan?
October 11, 2020 • Jonathan Wolfgang
Rather than getting overwhelmed by whatever life throws at us, learning to take life one day at a time will not only help us get through the day, but it might lead to growth in our lives we never thought possible. Let’s not pretend this is easy – it’s not. But, God promises to walk with us each day, one day at a time – to give us an infusion of the kind of hope and encouragement we can find in his word to keep going.
A Church for the World

Pain and suffering are not ideal, but in those seasons, we grow the most. At our lowest points, we experience God's power the greatest. It's in those moments that the church becomes more than just a building, but a group of people called on mission together to serve. Service is so central to the Christian life, it's one of the most touched on topics in scripture. Serving is how we can go deep and wide in our faith, furthering our impact on the world.
What's Really Missing in Your Life

We need to stop just going to church be the church. In Corinthians, Paul says, “You are the building,” referring to the people that he is writing to as not just God's coworkers, but God's building. The best expression of the gathered church is much more like a Life Group than thousands of people gathered in a building. This type of community, of the Church, could be what's missing in your life.
Everything for Any-One

Jesus can change everything for anyone, but he will also give anything to save any one person. In one of Jesus' most famous parables, the Good Shepherd leaves his 99 other sheep to rescue the one that was lost. When he finds it, he Joyfully puts it on his shoulder. If you want Joy in your life, it starts with this, being a part of the mission of God to reach people, to reach any-one. So, who's your one?
The Time Has Come
September 13, 2020 • Scott Scruggs
There is a big difference between Greek words for time, Chronos (the clock moving) and Kairos (the way Jesus talked about time as full of potential and possibility). When Jesus announced the time has come and the kingdom is here, he was saying the Kairos has come. Now is the moment. What happens when we realize that we’re living in Kairos, not Chronos time? We meet people where they are at, serve those in need, and give without strings. All so others can know there is a God who loves them, a church who sees them, and a hope that can sustain them.
