The NT talks extensively about the power of the Spirit working through people, but there seems to be a lot of confusion surrounding how He does this and why. In this message, we will talk about gifts from the Spirit and what God wants us to do with them.

The Spirit is the voice of God in our lives, so we need to be getting better and better at hearing Him. In theory, it seems simple but hearing His voice can be difficult. In this message, we will talk about how He speaks and how to make sure we are ready to listen.

Though the Spirit is the most present person of the Trinity in our lives, it seems like most Christians understand the least about Him. This doesn’t need to be the case, and understanding who He is and what He wants to do in us is the key to a genuinely fulfilling Christian life. In this first message, we will discuss His role as the mark of God on us.

As we continue in the Summer Series Aaron Plummer teaches us how to run the race of life in a way that glorifies God.

As we continue in the Summer 2022 Series we hear a message about prayer from Dennis Welch.

In this message from Ben Collins he gives us a way to find hope in any situation.

This week we start our new series for the summer where we get to hear from the elders and leaders in our church. On this Father's Day we hear from three of our Dads in leadership as to what molded them as children and what they are still working on as Fathers.

If Baptism is our initial symbol of identification with Jesus and we do that once, what do we do after that? Thankfully, Jesus gave us another symbol that we can do regularly to remember and declare our faith in Him. In this message, we will look at what He did, when He did it, and why it is so important for us.

In this message from Ben Collins he gives us a message of hope in any situation.

Though belief may be a personal decision, Jesus gave us ways to demonstrate it and identify with Him publicly. The first way He not only commanded but modeled as well. He expects all believers to be baptized as He was. In this message, we will discuss why this is so important.

Now that we have heard the Sermon on the Mount from Jesus, what will we do with it and what difference will it make? In the final message in this series, we will look at how He finishes the sermon and the challenge He gives.

Nothing in the Sermon on the Mount has been easy. With every breath, Jesus has challenged us to rethink how we view our lives. The question becomes, “What will we do with it?” Will we choose the hard road, or will we take the easy way out?

“It’s not my place to judge.” Is that true for a Christian or not? Are we never supposed to judge anyone or are we supposed to judge sin every time we see it? Thankfully, Jesus answered these questions very clearly in the Sermon on the Mount.

Relationships are one of the most fulfilling things in life, but they can also be the most challenging. As we take a short break from the Sermon on the Mount, Mother’s Day reminds us of the influence that family has in our lives. Sometimes that is for better and sometimes for worse, but it is always significant.

Worry is a powerful thing and can quickly debilitate us. Jesus knows that if His listeners take this message to heart, they will have hardships on the road ahead. We must not allow anxiety to drive us to the ground when facing these difficulties. This study will talk about where this worry comes from and how to replace it with trust and confidence.

The course of our life is largely determined by what we value. We chase after the things that we treasure. Jesus tells us that some things are worth pursuing and some things are not. In this message, we will examine which is which.

This is a day to focus on the most important thing. With so many distractions within Christianity, there is one thing that unites us above all. On this day, we all turn our attention to what our hope is really in.

Prayer can be intimidating for many of us. What should we pray for? What should we not pray for? Should we leave that to the “professionals”? In this message, we will talk about what prayer should look like and gain the confidence to pray in a way that honors God.

Last week closed us out on chapter 5 of our solid ground series. This week Jesus shifts gears from telling whom we out to be to how to become that person. We learn some very important Spiritual disciplines that test our motivation and move us closer to God.

After raising the bar on murder, adultery, marriage, and oaths, Jesus finishes this section with arguably the two most challenging concepts. However, the promise is that taking these seriously brings us closer to who God wants us to be. We will finish Chapter 5 of Matthew this week and continue building our house on solid ground.
