Easter Sermon - April 12, 2020

We all get "good things amnesia" from time to time. It's easy to get distracted by the struggles and the legitimate awful things that can happen in our lives.

 There is hope, though. His name is Jesus. The cross shows his love. The empty tomb proves that his love wins over everything, even our sin, even death. What does this mean for us, if our savior loves us so much that sin and death can't even hold him down?

Celebrate a risen Savior today. Because he lives, we live.

We've had a few questions about if any of the videos after the posted videos are also recommended viewing. Only the first video is what we intend to share. Anything else is a suggestion by Youtube based on algorithms. Typically, we will post the sermon video and then a few songs to accompany the message. We can't control any ads, but we're doing our best to make sure we can minister to you during this time and provide more resources for you to build and nurture your faith. Thank you.

Acts 9: Transformed and Set Free - July 5, 2020

As we continue into our series in the book of Acts, we come to an unexpected transformation of a man named Saul. When we first met Saul, he was overseeing the murder of Stephen. At the beginning of chapter nine , he's breathing murderous threats and rounding up followers of Jesus (with the approval of the high priests). Surely, he was an enemy of the early church. But then God changes his trajectory. He transforms Saul. When God is speaking to Ananias about this change, watch how deep that change digs in: But the Lord said to Ananias,  “Go! This man is my chosen instrument  to proclaim my name to the Gentiles  and their kings  and to the people of Israel.   I will show him how much he must suffer for my name. ” - Acts 9:15-16 Saul has been chosen by God to be used by God because he's loved by God. He will share in the sufferings of Jesus as he preaches Jesus. God will not abandon Saul. He is Saul's God, and Saul is one of God's people. He's been changed. God wi

A Brief Update About Website Updates

Until this post, our website hadn't been updated in nearly a year.  We apologize for the inconvenience, and hope to post more videos from our sermons shortly. We are currently in a series in Philippians, and would love to explore that letter to an early church with you. On September 2, 2021, Pastor Jeff's wife passed away because of complications around leukemia and its treatment. The result was that the updates of this website were not as high of a priority until his schedule could become more consistent, and the timing worked better to dedicate time to updates. Thank you for your prayers and support, and we welcome you to visit us on Sunday mornings at 10:30am,  all year. If you have a prayer request or a question, click here , and we promise to get back to you.
