This Sunday marks the beginning of Advent season and also marks the beginning of our annual opportunity to renew our faith, reignite our passions, and reinvest our will into the things that matter the most. Our modern culture has taken this season of restoration, contemplation, and hope and turned it into a season of frantic energy, mile-long to-do lists, and depressive memories. Let's take some time this year to revisit what Advent means in order to refocus our perspective toward God.

Pride: What's the Big Deal?
April 28, 2024 • Susan Livingston
God hates pride because of how subtle and deceitful this relationship, marriage, home, and nation destroying sin is. We have all struggled with this mindset which removes us from God's blessing. Since Jesus came to save us from the enemy's plan to steal, kill, and destroy, we need to turn to God's truth and prayer to have it healed from our lives.
The Unity of the Church
April 21, 2024 • Pastor Mike Stubbs, Lindsay Smith, Sydney Farney • Ecclesiastes 4:9–12
As soon as a body of believers starts making a profound influence in a community, the enemy will come and sow seeds of discord. He knows that he cannot defeat God’s people unless they are unblessed and unempowered by Jesus Christ. This can only happen when they willfully reject wisdom from above and embrace worldly rhetoric and its devises. As the body of Christ, we are always in a winning position of power and influence when we operate in the unity of the Spirit compelled by the love of the Father. This message begins with Lindsay Smith and Sydney Farney giving a report and sharing testimonies about the local Radical Life ministry that strives to build healthy families in the community.
Understanding Christian Character
April 14, 2024 • Pastor Mike Stubbs • 2 Peter 1:3–11
The most important quality of a disciple of Jesus Christ is godly character. That is how real believers are identified and how fake or immature believers are exposed. We are identified by our “fruit” which is the fruit of the Holy Spirit. Even if a person is gifted, the real test is a person’s character, habits, and lifestyle. Godly believers leave a trail of wholeness in the church not collateral damage.
