Have you ever felt like your prayers were bouncing off the ceiling? Like God wasn't listening? Or maybe life just got too busy to even pause and connect with Him?In this special service called Without Ceasing, we walk through what it looks like to constantly prioritize prayer and make it a way of life. Using 1 Thessalonians 5:16–18 as our anchor, we explore five circles of relationships; Divine, Transparent, Personal, Social, and Public, and how prayer should be present in every one of them.This is more than a message. It's an immersive experience designed to deepen your connection with God and others. Through worship, guided reflection, Scripture, communion, and even handwritten encouragement to missionaries, you'll be invited to live a life of prayer... without ceasing.New here?

What happens when people try to make a name for themselves instead of lifting up the name of God?In this message, we explore Genesis 10–11, where we see the spread of the nations after the flood, the pride of Babel, and God's response to mankind's self-promotion. From the Table of Nations to the Tower of Babel, we discover how God's redemptive plan is at work, even when humanity chooses its own way.You'll learn:Why God scattered the nationsHow language, identity, and purpose are connected in ScriptureWhy trying to "make a name for ourselves" misses the markHow God's heart has always been for all people, every nation
In this message, Pastor Kyle walks through Genesis 9, where God makes a covenant with Noah after the flood, a powerful reminder that even after judgment, God's heart is still full of grace, mercy, and generosity.We explore:The meaning of God's covenant and the rainbow as a sign of His faithfulnessHow God's justice and mercy work togetherWhat it means for us to live as people who reflect God's promisesWhether you're new to the Bible or have heard this story many times, this message invites you to reflect on God's unchanging character and His invitation to trust Him fully.Challenge this week: Are you trusting God's promises, or relying on your own strength?
