When suffering comes, First Peter 3 reminds us that we are called to respond differently. We can honor Christ in our hearts, knowing that our hope, our witness, and our reward are in Him.

True freedom comes from surrendering to God's order, not resisting it. Whether in government, work, or family, submission isn't weakness—it's trust in God's sovereignty as we live honorably, serve faithfully, and reflect Christ in every area of life.

Join us as we dive into First Peter 2 and discover what it means to live with purpose, holiness, and belonging—because you weren't meant to walk alone. You were chosen, called, and placed into a spiritual family for something bigger than yourself!

As we reflect on our study of 1 Peter, we see how this living hope impacts our lives. This week, we will consider how God's transforming love toward us calls us to live holy lives and love others sincerely.

Join us for week 2 of 1st Peter as we look at what it means to be born again to a living hope.

As we begin our new series through the book of 1 Peter, we see how our identity as exiles chosen by God enables us to live a life after God.

It is not just a good idea to take moments to celebrate, it's actually the way God has designed us to remember what He's done and what He can do!

What is our role in helping find the people who don't know God? Do we wait for God to do his thing, or do we take it upon ourselves to go?

In Luke 15 we see the three Parables of Joy, reminding us of God's pursuit and heart for those who are lost.

How far will God go to save the one who doesn't know Him? As we commit to ten days of prayer and fasting, we're asking the God of the harvest to reconcile our friends, loved ones, and community to Him. Just as God would spare the 99 to save the one, we'll reflect on what we are willing to lay aside to see His story of salvation unleashed in the world.

Take time to rest and reflect on the past year and look forward to 2025.

The Bible has many words for love. God's love is steadfast for us. It is satisfying, it's for all people, it's unconditional, and it's transformational. How can we order our lives to encounter this love every day?

Joy is a gift from God that can't be taken away or fully expressed because of how powerful it really is. This advent season we are also reminded that joy is possible because of Jesus.

The famous words of Silent Night give us a tender moment every year where we consider how to "Sleep in Heavenly Peace." But was the moment of Jesus birth peaceful? How do we have a heavenly peace while we are on Earth?

As we begin our series in Advent, we consider how hope is so frequently misunderstood and misplaced. Only Jesus can offer a hope that is different than this world!

As we wrap up the series in the beatitudes we are challenged to consider what it means to be a peacemaker and how we stay peaceful even in the midst of persecution.

Our culture has the idea of purity upside down today. Follow Caden as he gives us the biblical view of purity and how it leads to seeing God.

Jesus says that the ones who are hungry and thirsty are the ones who will find ultimate satisfaction and that those who are merciful to others shall receive mercy. How do we stay in pursuit of what matters most and not chase empty promises or selfish desires?

Jesus teaches us, not just through the sermon on the mount, but through His character and behavior, that meekness is the way into the promised land. How is it that in an age of posturing and impressing does meekness lead us into being more like Christ?

How is it that we can be blessed when we mourn? Mourning is not just the expression of grief it is the pathway to God's comfort.

How do we approach this political season as Christians who live in America? This week, we dive into the Beatitudes and look at how it is the poor in spirit who are blessed. How do we live as poor in spirit in a time and season when humility is rare and self-reliance is the mantra of the day?

This morning, we eagerly celebrate having some of our missionaries with us and hear how God is moving around the world.

What would it look like if we fully embraced our mission to gather, grow, and go for the King and His glory?

How do we as a church "Go" into the world and make an impact? Should we only go as a church or is there a personal command to "Go" as well?

As we consider how we will Gather, Grow, and Go for the King and His glory, we consider what it means to mature in Christ and become more like Him.

Have you ever wondered why we meet as a church in a building together? Is that the full extent of church? What is it that we are supposed to do when we get together? This week we tackle why and how we gather for King Jesus and His glory.

We all know we need friends, but things always get in the way of making deep connections with others. How do we need to address our priorities, our initiative, and our hurt when it comes to making friends?

What makes for a good friend? Through the story of David and Jonathan, we see that strong friends add value to your life and are committed to God's plans for you, no matter the cost!

Even though we're more connected than ever, loneliness is still hitting hard in our culture. So, how can we as Christians really understand what community and friendship are all about? And how does Jesus shape the way we connect with each other?

As we mature in our faith, it is important that we make a distinction between the great love God has for us, and the ability we have to please him. Aiming to please God leads to radical faith, and that is what leads to transforming a city.

The next generation is an essential mission field for us, how can we be intentional with this high call for an eternal impact? The Bible and a recent study shows us how we can impact the next generation for God's Kingdom.

As we conclude the series in the book of Proverbs we see wisdom for everyday living for the generations. Whether you are young, in the middle, or older- there is wisdom to be gleaned for you!

The simple man and the seductive woman both can fall into the trappings of lust. But how do we stand strong, grow in virtue, and pursue righteousness? Proverbs helps us in all of this!

Are we diligent or are we lazy? How do we recognize the trends of the lazy and how do we stay on the path of the diligent?

Solomon wrote many proverbs about justice and righteousness. When we hear about justice and righteousness, are we thinking the same things?

When we are saved, we aren't just saved individually, we are saved into a family! But have you ever wondered what it means to be a contributing member of a church family?

Proverbs explains to us the power of our words and speech. Our words have the power of death or life.

Our new overseer, Joel Zeiner covers the five fools continuing our Proverbs series!

Wisdom is readily available for all of us but so is foolishness! How do we walk in the way of the righteous how do we avoid the pitfalls of the fool?

Trust in the Lord is a common command but unfortunately it is routinely compromised. How do we put all our trust in the Lord in our plenty and in our pain?

The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, but what does it mean to fear the Lord? Are we going about wisdom all wrong in our life or are we making every effort to become wise?

One of the biggest lies that we've believed about the Bible is that we could never do what we read about. This week we will see how to reject that lie, and walk in our true God-given calling!

Not only can you trust the Bible more than anything else in your life, you can trust the Bible to lead you into the fullest version of life.

How is a book that is 2000 years old still be relevant today? This week, we will consider how it is not just relevant but actually carries authority in our life today.

To experience the fullness of the power of the Word, we must be regular and consistent in its reading. Colossians shows that can only come through a reshaping of our desires.
