Fear is an important emotion; it helps keep us safe and avoid harm. But fear can also cause us to hesitate, delay, and avoid important decisions. Israel was on the doorstep of the Promised Land, ready to receive God's blessing, and fear crept in. Let's learn together how to conquer fear and step into freedom.

Who are we? Where did we come from? Why are we here? Every person wrestles with these questions. The best way to find your purpose in life is to understand The Story. God's Story woven through history. From Adam to Jesus to Paul to you. Understanding The Story will help you understand your story.

We all have a bit of a "control freak" inside us. When God feels distant or "up there," we often grab the steering wheel of our lives, convinced we know best. But God's heart has always been to move closer. From the smoke and thunder of Mount Sinai to the Tabernacle in the center of the camp, God has been making a way to be with His people. Come discover how surrendering our need for control opens the door to experiencing the presence of the God.

Life can feel uncertain, overwhelming, and even hopeless at times. The Israelites suffered under brutal slavery in Egypt. But God was not absent – He saw their suffering, heard their cries, and acted in power to deliver them. Through Moses, the plagues, the Passover, and the Red Sea, God revealed both His power and His personal care. Come hear the story of God's deliverance of the Israelites from slavery and learn how God delivers us from our slavery to sin.

Sometimes life feels like it is out of control. Things fall apart, wickedness seems to be winning, and we suffer the consequences. It can be easy to wonder if God is with us in those moments. If there is a reason for all of it. Come hear the story of Joseph, betrayed by his family, betrayed by a woman, betrayed by a prisoner. Yet God's hand was behind it all bringing about the salvation of many. Learn with us to trust God through it all.

Generations passed since God had wiped humanity's slate clean with the flood, but mankind didn't learn. And yet God wasn't finished; he promised to launch his plan of redemption through Abram. But then nothing happens for decades. Come and learn about faith when the timeline stretches, answers don't come, and doubts creep in.

Creation, corruption, catastrophe. So goes the first part of the human story. Our mighty Creator is far too good to be close to rebellious people like us. But no matter how much he's allergic to our sin, he deeply loves us and wants us. When you read the start of The Story, you can't help but feel both unworthiness and acceptance. God is on a mission to bridge the gap between us and win back our straying hearts.

“He will never find God.” “She's a lost cause.” Too little, too late. If we took the time to think about it we could come up with a list of many people we think are too far gone to be reached by Jesus. In the early church there was one man who would have topped everyone's list. He was enemy #1, the biggest opponent to Christianity, and the biggest zealot imaginable. Join us as we see how God transformed Saul's life and the impact that one moment still has on our lives today.

As the explosive growth of the early church continued, the Holy Spirit directed Philip away from a highly successful, growing ministry and moved Philip to interact with a stranger far from God, away from the public eye. Come hear how Philip responded and how small steps of faithful obedience can have an impact we don't expect!

There will always be both false conversions and ignorant converts within the gathering of God's people. This Sunday we will encounter the first wolf in sheep's clothing of the early church. How they responded to this threat to the community will teach us how to avoid becoming distracted and instead continue to spread the Good News in communities everywhere we go.

What are you willing to die for? This is a daunting question, but one man named Stephen had a clear answer. When faced with opposition, he became an eloquent and forceful speaker with an unforgettable opportunity to give a history lesson and the gospel to the same religious leaders who convicted Jesus. Stephen's courage in the face of death shows us what he was living for. In the face of seeming defeat, the Jesus Revolution grows stronger!

Growth can be difficult. Growing comes with growing pains. Whether it's growing a family, growing a business, or growing the church. What do we do when things go wrong? When things get overlooked and things are not as they are meant to be. Perhaps God has prepared you to step into the mess and be the solution you never thought you could be. Join us on Sunday as we see how the church handled some of its own growing pains and discover how God is still using people today to do great things.
