Jesus Christ came to set us free from the power of sin that often leaves us feeling defeated. As followers of Jesus, we don't fight for victory, but we walk in the victory already given to us.

Many times each of us works our entire lives to build up kingdoms for ourselves. These kingdoms are the things we live for and where we find our identity. Yet, each of those kingdoms can and will be shaken. In this series we will study through Hebrews 12 and see that the Kingdom of God is an everlasting Kingdom. The Kingdom of God is ours to receiv…

Last week we learned about praying in a pandemic. This week, Pastor Trevor teaches on the surrounding verses in 1st Thessalonians 5:16-18. How do we rejoice in the midst of trials? Why should we even rejoice in the midst of trials? Watch as Pastor Trevor encourages us to seek the good in the hard times and to remain in God when all feels lost.…

What if the hardest thing God asks you to surrender is the very thing He promised you? In this grace-filled message, Pastor Nicole Gunter unpacks the story of Abraham and Isaac — revealing how God's grace carries us through the tests we cannot bear on our own. It's about grace that empowers obedience, grace that sustains us through grief, and grace…

In this powerful message, we explore the profound significance of Noah's Ark as a vessel of deliverance, pointing to a greater promise—the cross of Christ. Through God's mercy, we are called into His protection, provision, and presence, not to escape judgment, but to find hope and life within His grace. Discover the deeper connection between God's …

The people gathered around Jesus were hungry. The disciples couldn't see what was right in front of them - that Jesus came to satisfy the deepest desires of our hearts. In the demonstration of receiving and offering, Jesus shows us that rest is found when we come to God, and it is here that we are Blessed, Broken & Given. In this life, there is joy…

The Prodigal son wants nothing to do with his father and thinks he can find rest in all the things of the world. When he finally comes to the end of himself, he remembers that he was once a son and returns home with the hopes of being a slave. Yet, he is surprised by grace and is brought into the rest and joy of his father. In the same way, in Chri…

This feast is the second of the three harvest feasts. It occurs exactly seven weeks after the Feasts of First Fruits, so it's also called Pentecost, which means "50days." God's plan to save souls included more than the Jews. Through Jesus, this plan was revealed. In Matthew 9:37, Jesus tells His disciples that "the harvest is great, but the workers…

The Feast of First fruits is one of the three Jewish harvest feasts to thank and honor God for all he provided. The priests sacrificed Passover lambs on the 14th day of the month of Nisan, and the first day of Passover was the 15th. The Feast of First Fruits on the third day, the 16th of Nisan. This "third-day" Celebration was the same day that Jes…

This seven-day feast begins on the day following the start of Passover. In the haste of the Israelites to leave Egypt, there was no time to add leaven(yeast) to their bread. During this time, remembering the hardships in Egypt and how God freed them from captivity, the Jews ate nothing leavened. Leaven often represents sin and decay in the Bible. O…

This feast remembers the last plague in Egypt when the angel of death "passed over" the children of Israel who applied the blood of the lamb to their doors. The Israelites took a bundle of hyssop and dipped it into the blood in the basin at the threshold. When John the Baptist said, "Look! The Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world!" he un…

At the center of the table are not our preferences but the risen and living Christ. From the center and in community, we experience the transforming power of Christ Jesus. We come to the table as we are and invite others as they are - but we invite the presence of Jesus to change us from the inside out.…

In a world that is deeply divided, and the god of the age is the self, hospitality is an act of kindness and defiance. It is tethering ourselves to the nature and character of Christ, placing ourselves in the position of servants. It is at the table where we extend the tangible grace of Christ to the hurting, lost, broken, and marginalized. For the…

The history of the church and the people of God live and move around a table. It is here that the world saw for the first time the beautiful mosaic that is the Kingdom dining around a table, breaking bread, and confessing the risen Christ. The table is where the mystery of the Gospel is made visible to the watching world.…

The church is meant to be a "city on a hill....the light of the world." The church and followers of Jesus must exist for the good of the city. This begins with the gathering, but we must then scatter into the world and into the city to see the flourishing of all people.By Nirup Alphonse

The greatest threat to us growing in our faith (there is no threat to the Gospel- The Kingdom cannot be shaken) is the radical and idolatrous autonomy we hold on to. In a culture whose only commitment is to be committed to nothing, the people of Jesus must be radically committed to the church historically, globally, and locally.…

The story of the Gospel is not about making bad people good, but moving those who are dead to life in Christ. This means that sin is not fundamentally about behavior a detachment from God and the things of God. The Gospel then awakens us to life and brings us back into communion with God.By Nirup Alphonse

The prayer of the church and Christians is “Maranatha” because we desire and believe in the Lord’s return. The Lord Jesus speaks, promising to come soon as the Divine Messiah. As Christians, we are not afraid but trust that God is both loving and just and ask Him to release His judgment over the world so that the world might be fully saved and cons…

One of the most comforting realities is that Jesus Christ is still and always will be sovereign over all things. While “Maranatha” in this context is not a prayer for the immanent return of Christ, it is a prayer that reminds us that we must be active agents, living self-controlled and sober-minded. In this, we will be devoted to prayer and of use …

As one of the prayers of early Christians, “Maranatha” simply meant, “Our Lord has come.” It was a reminder to the church that in a world where we often feel far from God or we sense God’s distance, we are anchored in the truth of His incarnation. This is important for us because we want to begin our year by being reminded that God in Christ Jesus …

Jesus was born as the Savior King in fulfillment of numerous prophecies and promises found in the Old Testament Scriptures. His birth was marked by several significant aspects that revealed his identity as the long-awaited Messiah and Savior of the world: This King was affirmed by divine announcements, visits from dignitaries, declarations by angel…

Jesus was a King who was born to suffer so that His people would know what it means to live. Jesus was the suffering King who endured betrayal, rejection, mockery, humiliation, suffering, and death for the sake of humanity. Through his sacrificial death and triumphant resurrection, he provided forgiveness, redemption, and eternal life, fulfilling t…

Jesus came as a shepherd by caring for the lost, guiding and teaching his followers, protecting, and defending them, sacrificing himself for their sake, and ultimately rising from the dead to secure eternal life for all who believe in him. He embodies the qualities of the Good Shepherd who loves, leads, and lays down his life for his sheep. This wa…

Unlike the kings of the earth who were domineering over their subjects and demanded to be served, Jesus exemplified what it means to be a servant. He walked as a king of humility displaying sacrificial love, compassion, and mercy for those who were deeply broken. As the servant King, Jesus challenged traditional notions of leadership and power, sho…

Jesus was the Spirit-filled King who demonstrated his authority, performed miracles, taught with wisdom, overcame temptation, and ultimately conquered death through the empowerment of the Holy Spirit, fulfilling his mission to reconcile humanity to God and establish the Kingdom of God on earth. He was conceived by the Spirit (birth), led by the Spi…

Christ’s supremacy demands our response in missions. He reigns as Creator, Savior, and King, offering eternal hope to all. Sharing the gospel reflects His unmatched love, worth, and glory. Through missions, we declare His authority and bring His light to nations in need of redemption. His greatness fuels our passion and joy, compelling us to make H…
