The Holy Spirit brings us into community with people who both think similar and different to us. As we mourn with events happening in our own backyard, celebrate the end of a school year and graduations— the Holy Spirit meets us where we are at in each season. It’s something to be grateful to knowing He is faithful and we can trust Him. This week we invited students as they felt lead to share stories of how the Holy Spirit has showed up in their lives.

May 4, 2022
Everywhere we are surrounded by a consumer culture, even at church. The Holy Spirit is working and moving in us but we need to be available to the how he might be trying to move. Sienna and Liz share even their experience with the Holy Spirit and following Jesus-- it’s not always easy but it’s always worth it! As we continue to be empowered by the Spirit, how might he be prompting you and wanting to use you to lead where you’re at?
Jesus + Holy Spirit
April 20, 2022
We live as aware of the Holy Spirit living and moving in us. As we enter this next series the question of “how is the Holy Spirit empowering you and how can you live out of it?” We get to live differently because Jesus said it was better for the Holy Spirit to be with us than him. We’ve seen him move before but how is he wanting to move now?
James 3, Words Matter Panel
March 23, 2022
Take a listen as we have a small panel talk about their experiences with words, why they matter and are all words bad?? We aren’t saying to go use any and all words but to think about the words we use and the impact they could have on both our lives and those around us. Words are hard and words matter!
James 2, Favoritism
March 9, 2022 • James 2
James biggest reminder to us is to love God and love others, to follow the golden rule. Which means showing favoritism, judgement is not the way of Jesus. Jesus invites us to calling everyone friend. It doesn’t mean we have to be close to everyone, but we should be kind and treating others how we would want to be treated. Then in listening to God, being intentional with prayer we get to be friends and share what God has given us.
James 1, Friends
March 2, 2022 • James 1
As we start not only Lent but our new series in James, it’s clear God is on the move. But we often miss him. As we enter this next season the call is to invite Jesus into our lives to see how He wants to move in our lives. Through that no matter the trial or temptation we learn we have a friend in Jesus. Which helps us be better friends to everyone around us.
Planted In Community
February 9, 2022
We all have family and friends who simultaneously make life easier and harder. When we’re planted in Jesus’ love— obeying that commandment first and foremost should impact all our relationships. We’re all human and will fail at loving each other at all times. But leaning into the Holy Spirit can impact it all for God’s good
Humans Are Trees
February 2, 2022
The word trees in the Bible comes up over 800 times, so when something is repeated it’s something to pay attention to. In the imagery we can see how similar humans and trees are. As we follow Jesus we need to stay planted in Him to grow and let Jesus flow into every area of our lives.
Life Change with Jesus
January 26, 2022
John 15 teaches us to abide in Jesus as the vine, and we as the branches. In that, Jesus calls us to prune the things in our lives that cause us to miss out on the sweet things he has for us. When we shape our lives with Christ, we can experience true freedom.
