Before you can flourish, you've got to be planted. In this message, we explore what it means to be rooted in Christ—not just chasing visible fruit, but growing deep in faith, truth, and community. From childhood memories to powerful Scripture, discover how God plants us in His house so we can thrive, not just survive. ✨ Don't focus on the fruit. Check your root.

What if the true measure of your life isn't in what you earn, but in what you give away? In a world driven by status, possessions, and success, Scripture turns the tables and shows us a radically different way to live—a generous life that leaves an eternal impact. This week, we'll explore what it means to choose generosity. Through powerful wisdom from Proverbs, Psalms, and Paul's letters, we'll see that generosity isn't just about money—it's about our mindset, our heart posture, and the way we steward our time, talents, and touch. We'll learn from the sacrificial example of Jesus Himself, who gave everything so we might live abundantly. Whether you're in a season of plenty or walking through a trial, generosity is always possible—and always powerful. It enlarges your world, refreshes your soul, and points others to the grace of God. Join us as we discover five ways to grow in generosity: Choose to give joyfully Choose to give selflessly Choose to give willingly Choose to give intentionally Choose to give thankfully Let's break free from a scarcity mindset and step into a life where giving becomes our greatest gain. Because in God's kingdom, it's more blessed to give than to receive. 

What if the choices you're making are shaping the person you're becoming—and stealing your peace in the process? In this powerful message, we explore how to take back your time, restore your soul, and live with intention. Drawing from Proverbs 31, Daniel 5, and Jesus' invitation to rest in Matthew 11, this sermon will help you develop life-giving rhythms in your routine, emotions, and thoughts. It's time to choose life over hurry—and rediscover rest for your soul.

This week, we're diving deep into the power of our choices—and how choosing excellence isn't about perfection, but posture. From Moses' call to “choose life” in Deuteronomy to Paul's charge to “run with purpose,” Scripture shows us that living with an excellent spirit begins in the heart. We'll explore how excellence is fueled by gratitude, shaped by discipline, driven by determination, and aligned through God's direction. Excellence means doing ordinary things extraordinarily well—not for applause, but for God's glory. God has already placed greatness in you. The question is: will you live it out?

What if the way you see life, yourself, and even God… is holding you back from the life He's trying to lead you into? This Easter, we're diving into a powerful message that explores how clarity comes not from control, but from closeness to God. If you've ever wondered, "How did I end up here?" or "Is there more to life than this?"—this message is for you.
