We Are Devoted

July 21, 2024 • David Miller • John 15:1–5, John 17:9–10, John 3:16, Psalm 42:1, Psalm 63:1–8

In the last message we learned that "God is Everything". Everything that God has done and is doing today and all that He will do in the future is because of His great love. So what is our response to His love? Devotion. We are to be devoted to not only to following Christ, but to abiding in Him. What exactly does this mean? How do we "abide" in Jesus? Watch this message by Community Care Pastor David Miller to learn more about this life-changing practice.

He Is Everything

July 14, 2024 • Ryan Akers • Romans 1:18–20, Psalm 90:2, Hebrews 11:3, Psalm 8:3–4, Genesis 1:1

It’s easy for any of us to ask ourselves, “What is my purpose in this life, in this world, in this universe?" You may feel so small and insignificant and sometimes just wonder what the point of it all is. You may see the daily headlines of natural disasters, global conflicts, political division, and it becomes easy to feel like a very tiny drop in a vast and endless ocean. If this is you, we have one main thought for you...nothing makes sense unless you begin with God. Why? Watch or listen to this message by Discipleship Pastor Ryan Akers to find out!

We Are Free

July 7, 2024 • Ryan Akers • Galatians 5:16–24

What is it that humans long for most? There is probably a range of answers such as meaning, relationships, love, and significance, but the one everyone could agree on would be freedom. Humans long to be free. Experiencing freedom as a citizen of the USA is one thing, but the idea of experiencing spiritual freedom can often be much harder. Even though we talk about it, sing about it, and hear about it, many of us are still not walking in spiritual freedom. Instead, we continue to feel shackled by our guilt, shame, sins, our past, and our doubts. The reason for this is because we have two enemies. Watch/listen to this message by Discipleship Pastor Ryan Akers to find out who these enemies are and how we can have true, lasting freedom.

He Is Grace

June 30, 2024 • Chris Taylor • John 1:17, Colossians 1:16–17, Hebrews 12:6, 2 Timothy 1:9, Genesis 3:6–15

Have you ever felt like God in the Old Testament is different from God in the New Testament? The grace shown in the Old Testament and the grace we receive through Christ in the New Testament are very similar. We can even see God’s grace in the way He dealt with Adam and Eve in the garden despite the consequences of their sin. Watch this message to understand God's grace and how, even when He disciplines His children, it is His grace (undeserved yet freely given love and favor) we receive.
